AN HOURS WALK.
You Would Hardly Think u Meant
travelling 05.253 Miles.

Have you ever thought Of the dis
lance you travel when yOn are out
on an hours stroll? Possibly you
walk three miles within the hour, but
that does not by any mean represent
the distance you travel. The earth
turns on its axis every twenty-four
hours. For the sake Of round figures.
we will call the earth's circumference
24,O0O miles. and so you must have
travelled during the hours stroll 1000
miles in the axial turn Of the earth.
But this is not all. The earth makes
a journey around the sun every year.
and a long but rapid trip it is. The
distance Of our planet from the sun
we will put at %. 600 miles. This
is the radius of the earth's orbit-half
the diameter OF the circle. as w call
It. The whole diameter is therefore
1S4.OO0.O0O miles. and the circumfer-
ence, being the diameter multiplied BY
3.1416, Is about 57S.00O,OO0.
This amazing distance the earth trav-
els in its yearly journey, and dividing
Ii by 365 we find the daily speed about
1.5S6.OO0. Then we get the distance
you rode around the sun during your
hours walk. divide again by twenty
four. and the result is about $4,000
miles. But this Is not the end Of your
hours trip. The sun. with Its entire
brood Of planets, Is moving In space
at the rate Of 1G0,OOO,OOO miles in a
year. That is at the rate of a little
more than $4,000 miles a day, or 49,
900 miles an hour.

hands of an angry mob, Officer Charles
Pollei, of the Mankato police force,
occupies cell in the Nicollet county
jail in this city.
Pollei shot and killed Hubert Hack,
young man living in North Mankato.
In a short time a crowd gathered
about the police station. and the dan
ger of violence seemed so imminent
that Sheriff Osten of Blue Earth coun-
ty took Pollei from the station by a
rear door and placed him in waiting
automobile.
The fact that the policeman had
been brought to ST. Peter was kept
secret and none but the authorities
knew of his whereabouts. He was
placed in a cell on the second floor
of the jail.
Officer Pollei expresses great re-
morse over the shooting. Il intended
to shoot into the air and brighten

ing in the September primary cleo
ton. 1t follows from his opinion that
If the party is organized it will have
to nominate its candidates for presi-
Dental elector or for any other offices
by petition, after the primary, and no
one who votes in the primary will
be eligible to sign the petitions.
The opinion was given out in re
Spouse to many informal requests as
to the legal status of a new party. II
is as follows:
"a political party, as that term is
used in the primary election law, is
one which has maintained in the dis
trict or territorial division in question
a party organized and preserved can
didates at three or more biennial cleo
tons within the preceding ten years.
This rule is modified only as to coun-
ties by the clause which permits a
number equal to 10 per cent or more
of the members of a party not quail
fed to nominate county officers at
a primary election to present petit
ton to the county auditor for a place
on the primary election ballot of said
county.
1T follows that any party now being
formed cannot nominate it's candi.
dates at the coming primary election.
/ am confirmed in this opinion, that
a group of persons desiring to form
a new party must have their candi.
dates put on the election ballot by
certificates of voters, by the language
of the clause which reads as follows:
But nothing herein shall prevent the
nomination of candidates by groups
of individuals or so-called political
parties which cannot be recognized
as such, by certificate of voters to
the number hereinafter specified II
is also to be noted that any person
filing for the nomination at the pri-
maries must swear that he affiliated
with such party at the last general
election If there had been no such
party at that time he could not SO
qualify. The voter at a primary, II
challenged, must swear that he gen.
orally supported the candidates of that
party at the last election, and that
he intends to support that party at
the election next ensuing. So with
out either candidates or voters quail.
fled to participate, any party now
forming has no place in the coming
primary election.
THE clause of the election law
reading, Candidates for Office shall
be chosen at such primary election
by voters of the several political par
ties, and not otherwise means the
same as though the word respective
was used in the place of the word sew
eral,' and that it forbids the voters OF
one party taking part in the choice
at primary of another party in the
selection of its candidates"

LAUNCH CAMPAIGN
FIRST SCENE OF 1912 FIGHT. FOR
REELECTION is TAKING
PLACE IN NEW YORK.
WITHDRAWAL IGNORED
HilIes New National Chairman and j,
3. Reynolds, Secretary, Declare
Confidence OF Party in
Candidates.

Washington, d. C. = The campaign
for the reelection OF, President Taft
is being formally in New York. James
B. Reynolds of Massachusetts, who
was named as secretary of the Repub-
lican national committee will do the
launching and G. ID. Hilles, President
Taft's secretary, who was selected
for chairman of the national commit
tee, will join him in New York on
Monday to aid in the work.
Mr.. Hilles issued a statement de-
claring the confidence of the Republi-
can party in it's cause and its candi-
dates.
The subcommittee of the national
committee held conference with
President Taft. Mr.. Hilles and Mr..
Reynolds were chosen to their posi-
lions unanimously.
The subcommittee adjourned until
July 10, when it will meet in New
York. At that meeting it is probable
that an advisory committee of FIVE
men and probably an executive COM
mittee of eight or ten will be an
nounced. Mr.. Hilles and other leaders
were hopeful that the treasurer would
be named at the next meeting.
Although many of the members of
the subcommittee left Washington
after the chairman was settled, sew
eral stayed long enough to have short
conferences with the president and
his newly elected campaign manager.
They proceeded to organize Mr.. Taft's
campaign, quite undisturbed by the
report that a number of Progressive
Republicans were going to circulate
petitions to ask him to withdraw from
TIE ticket. None of the committeeman
regarded that movement seriously in
view of the fact that it was being pro-
posed entirely by men who had lost
at Chicago. They admitted that the
campaign would be bitterly fought, but
among them there were many express
sions of confidence in the reelection
of Mr.. Taft.

WILLING TO SHARE PENNIES
Generous Act of Street Wait That
Gained Him a Friend In Great
Novelist.

Charles Dickens, the creator OF
many delightful child characters,
earned a million dollars during his
lifetime with his pen, but often walk
ed the streets Of London in search Of
material for his books without a PEN
ny in his pocket.
One evening while doing this he
was accosted by a small boy who
asked him for a penny. Dickens
searched his pockets. but they were
empty, and so he told the boy, who
was shivering in the cold.
Poor mani" exclaimed the little
fellow, well go hunks together!"
Dickens stood back in the shadow
of the street to see what the outcome
would be. The lad continued to beg,
and finally gained two pennies. He
came dancing to Dickens with jolly
ring in his voice.
Now" he said, well have two hot
buns apiece"
Such a generous spirit under such
trying circumstances struck Dickens
SO forcibly that he took the lad home
with him, and there he was fed and
clothed, and started on the road to a
better life.

REGULATING
The STOMACH

According to the Quality Of
the Blood That Is Fur.
nished to Il.

There Is the most intimate relation
between the condition of the blood and
the activity of the stomach. The blood
depends upon the stomach for a large
part of its nourishment; while every
act of digestion, from the time the food
enters the stomach until it is dipested
and assimilated by the blood, needs
plenty of pure, well-oxidized blood.
The stomach works only according to
the quality of the blood.
The most common cause of indiges-
ton is anemia, or lack of blood. In
deed there is not single disturbance Of
the health of the body nor any form Of
exhaustion or lowered vitality, that
may not lead to stomach trouble. Dis
ordered blood is the one common cause
of indigestion. Thin, impure blood
weakens the muscles OF the stomach
and lessons the product of the glands
which furnish the digestive fluids.
Nothing will more promptly cure in
digestion than plenty of pure, well-ox-
idized blood. DIR. Williams Pink Pills

THE INJURED.
Mrs. N. e. Hawkinson, Grive City,

Taken to Robertson hospital at Itch

AS far as could be learned, the Haw-
kinson family had been out riding
with Nelson, and were on their way
home in Grove City when the fatal ac-
cident occurred The automobile was
going along at a good rate Of speed,
it is believed, and the party were on
the Great Northern tracks in the path
of the onrushing engine before they
were aware of it.
N. e. Hawkinson and his young son
had miraculous escape from sharing
the fate of the others in the machine.
When Mr.. Hawkinson saw the engine
approaching, he seized the boy and
jumped from the automobile out of the
path of the engine. Both he and the
boy escaped uninjured.
The engineer of the Great Northern
train said that he did not see the au-
tomobile and it's occupants until with
in 80 feet of them.

MAN sMoTHERs IN WELL.

Fergus Falls. = Reports of hor-
rible accident were received here
from Henning county. Martin P. An
derson was digging well two miles
from that village and had gone down
to a depth of eighteen feet when
the earth caved in around him,
burying him up to the neck, but leav-
ing his head above ground. He was
wedged in firmly and helpless. A res
cue party was afraid to go into the
well and began digging a sloping
trench to where he was. The work
occupied several hours. Meanwhile q
storm came up and rain began fall
ing in torrents. 1t poured into the
we'll, carrying loose sand with it, and
Anderson was smothered before the
eyes of those who were trying to save
him.
