This is a fair sample Of how the
peoples money is spent by the present
state administra ton. The financing Of
political campaigns with state money
is not newt thing, but is something
that has not been practiced in Min
nesota for 10! these many years.
1t is a question now whether or not
the people will stand for it.
To Hold Late Convention.
fhn
Central committee should meet within
the next two months to consider plans
for the coming state convention, but. it
is said that a call will not be sent out
much before May. ~. .s...4
An early meeting Of the committee,
it is feared, might, bring to the sur
face some disturbing element: not
looked for-and the leaders are anxious
to keep such down to the minimum.
There is even talk Of a late conven-
ton. Il - -:
The wiping out offrivals is a COM
mendable enterprise, especially when
they Interfere with ones own ambi-
tons, but he question prompts itself,
Will those wiped out stand for it?
Won't they rebel? Won't they: hit back

Democracy Prospects Bright.
1t is this; one thing that appeals to
many now watching the Republican
game. and they make no bones in say
ing that the future looks bright for
Democracy. Many, Repu blicans are in
dulging in this prophecy.
They look for a turbulent time at
the next Republican state convention
with Governor ,Eberhart the winner
and then trouble for both him and his
hackers. - "
IT Mr.. Simpson stays in the game
it is hardly, likely that the other
crowd will have his best wishes, and
as for Lieutenant, Governor. Gordon
and his friends-well, their knives

ROOSEVELT TALKS OF HIS
NEW PROGRESSIVE PARTY

New York, July 23-In his first
speech since he returned from Chi
cago, Colonel Roosevelt today set
forth his reasons for leading in the
formation of a new party. His ad-
dress was delivered at a meeting of
the New York state county chairmen
Of the national progressive party.
No man knows better than t. said
the colonel, that enthusiasm and high
principles cannot be effective with
out organization and work. A great
responsibility rests upon you men
here who are undertaking the organi-
zation of a new party which is to
stand four -cornered to democracy,
which is to be literally the party of
the people. 1t will fight On live is
sues and not dead ones. 1t will en-
body protest against the corrup-
ton in both of the old party ma
chines,' he declared.

TAFT FAvORS REPEAL OF
CANADIAN RECIPROCITY

Washington, July 23.-President
Taft has indicated to several western
senators who were active opponents
of Canadian reciprocity that he would
favor repeal of the act.
Mr.. Taft will not withdraw his own
support of Canadian reciprocity as
principle, it is understood, but will
take the position that the United
States should not continue an offer
that Canada refuses to accept. The
reciprocity law continues in effect in
the United States, Notwithstanding
Canada's refusal to endorse it.
Senators McCumber, Hepburn,
Gronna and others have urged a re-
peal and an amendment was put on
the steel tariff bill, recently passed by
congress and now in conference, pro-
viding for such action.
It is asserted among western SEN
ators that if any tariff measure is
passed in the senate this week an
amendment will also be incorporated
for the repeal of the reciprocity law.
In case any one of these bills reaches
the president and is vetoed it is eX-
pected he will make clear in his veto
message the fact that he would ap-
prove measure to repeal the reci-
procity law.

APPOINTMENT WAS MADE BY
GOVERNOR BROWN YES.
TERDAY MORNING.
SENATE CONFIRMS TOMORROW
Long and Interesting Contest for the
Position Ends With Appointm n: Of
the Young Attorney to the Position.
Goes Into Office January Next

kilograms were received in the city
yesterday announcing the appoint
ment of Alfred H. Crovatt as solicitor
of the city court of Brunswick. The
appointment was made by Governor
Brown yesterday morning and it will
be confirmed by the senate tomorrow.
The appointment Of Mr.. Croyatt
ends a long and interesting contest
for this position. There were four
candidates for the place, the sue
cessful attorney, R. E. Dart, the in
cumbent, j. T. Colson and j. T.
Powell
The fight, however, some time ago
narrowed down to two of the cantt-
dates, Mr., Crovatt and Mr. Dart, and
for the past two weeks the appoint
ment has been daily expected. Both
of these gentlemen had strong en-
dorsement and it is understood that
Governor Brown decided the race be-
tween them with considerable diff
Guilty.
Mr. Crovatt, who, on January 1,
VII hShHihC IllS 'lulIES Vi Tie new
office, is one of the most popular
young attorneys in the city. He is
son of Judge A. ]. Crovatt and has
been practicing law in the city for
the past several years. He received
the endorsement of some of the best
known men in the state for the rosi
ton. He was busy yesterday receiv-
ing the congratulations of his many
friends, and among the first to do
this was the present solicitor The
| fight between them has been friend
ly and good-natured one.
In this connection it would be an
injustice to Mr.. Dart not to refer to
the excellent record he has made as
solicitor. When his term expires the
first of the year he will have served
two years in the office, having been
appointed in the summer of 1910 By
Governor Hoke Smith. He has filed
the position with much credit and has
made a reputation as a prosecuting
attorney of great ability. He has de-
voted most of his time to the posi-
tion and no man has ever served the
county more faithfully.

CAMDEN COUNTY
IMPROVING ROADS
To JACKSONVILLE
FINE ROAD BEING BUILT
THROUGH LONG SWAMP
NEAR GLENcO.
CONVICT GANG DOING WORK
Will Complete an Important Link in
Savannah Brunswick Jacksonville
Auto Road-New causeway is Being
RuiIt.

DR.. Burwell Atkinson, chairman OF
the board of county commissioners
OF Camden county, was in the city
yesterday, and while here he told OF
a great Improvement being made on
the roads in Camden which is a part
of the auto route between Brunswick
and Jacksonville. and which. in the
past, has been the poorest stretch OF
road between the two cities.
DR.. Atkinson stated that a number
of conVicts of the county were at
present engaged in work in swamps
near Glenco. He said for the past
several weeks the convicts have been
improving the road in the vicinity
and that they have succeeded in re-
pairing all of the bad places through
the swamps. A causeway has also
been built across Red Cap Mark, which
is 200 feet in length and 13 feet
across the top. This causeway will
make passage through the swamp
possible at all times. In the past
during heavy rain, the road thru
this stretch of road was made almost
impassable The work is being done
under the supervision of Warden A.
J. Lilies.
DR.. Atkinson further stated that the
convicts would be kept at work on
the road until September IS, and that
by that time the road would be one
OF the best on the Brunswick Jack
soIville road. 1t will be improved
al the way to the St. Marys river.
The announcement that Camden is
making this great improvement will
be fe eived with interest throughout
this section generally. The road
which is being repaired forms an i'm
portant link in the Savannah Bruins
:ch-J Jacksonville .cute and is con.
tiAuatitn of the National Highway
from the north. With the motor car
service in operation over the A,tama
ha river between Glynn and Me ntosh
counties within the next several
months, the road from Savannah all
the way to Jacksonville will be in ex-
cellent condition. the work now in
progress removes the two greatest
obstacles-the crossing of the Alta
maha and the roads through the
swamps of Camden county. 1t will be
an easy matter when all this work is
completed to make the trip from Sa-
vannah to Jacksonville in several
hours,

APPROPRIATION BILL, REPORTED
YESTERDAY, DID NOT IN.
cLUpE THIS FEATURE
SENATE TO ACT ON IT LATER
No Appropriation Will Be Made for
Highway Improvement Until Spe-
cial Commission Returns Findings
to the Senate.

Washington, July 23.-The postoffice
appropriation bill, shorn of the good
roads provision proposed by the house,
and embracing a revived parcel post
system with charges based on zones
of distance, was reported to the SEN
ate today by the postoffice commit
tee.
The total appropriations proposed
by the bill are above those of the
house measure, which carried approx
imately $260,000,O00. One of the prin-
cipal increases is in the pay of rail-
roads for transporting mails, the SEN
ate committee adopting more than
$2,500,0OO.
In striking out the Shackelford good
roads feature Of the house bill, which
provided for federal improvements of
highways, the senate committee rec
ommends an investigation by a spe-
cial commission of three house mem
5eTs and three senators and provides
for no highway improvements until
the commission has reported.
The Barnhardt amendment in the
house bill for the regular publication
of the names of the stockholders of
newspapers and periodicals is changed
to provide for publication once a year
when lists of the stockholders are re-
quired to be filed with local postmas
ters.
P1rnplc ;r
ferent from that Incorporated in the
house bill, which provided a flat rate
of postage for all distances. The SEN
ate provision is that of the Bourne
bill, slightly modified. Senator Bourne
recommended that third and fourth
class mail matter be combined for the
parcels post service, but the bill
makes the parcels post apply only to
fourth class matter.
The senate committee struck out OF
the house bill the provision giving to
postal employees the right to combine
in labor unions and the right to Pc
tition congress for redress of their
grievances.
1t is also provided for the abolish
ment of the present system of carry
ing second class mail by fast freight,
under what is known as the "blue
tag" system. Under the senate bill
all second class would be put back in
to regular mail cars after August 81.
Steel cars for railway mail service
which were required by the house
bill demanded by the senate measure.
Senator Obediah Gardner of Maine,
launched an attack upon the meas
ure, and counse1ed the senate TO
adopt the plan already approved by
the house.
Senator Gardner declared the SEN
ate committee on postoffices had been
unfair to a parcels post bill he had
introduced and denounced the Bourne
plan as a "mockery" He criticised
its limitations and declared it's effect
would be to give the railroads higher
they now enjoy from express pack
ages.
Senator Gardner declared it would
cost more to operate the Bourne pr
GELS post plan the first year than to
buy out the express companies. He
recommended that the properties, con-
tracts and business of the companies
be taken over by the government, eth
er by purchase or condemnation, and
a postal express system started.
