Henry Petrie will not be candi-

This decision was reached last
week and announced by Mr.. Petite
Monday morning.
Friends Ready To Fight
1t had been rather confidently ex-
pecfel that he would ges into the
fight. He made good showing two
years ago and he has a large circle
of friends in the county who would
have rallied around him and he would
have made trouble for the other can
didates.
Mr.. Petrie is extremely popular
and would make a bad antagonist
for any man.
Private Business Keeps Him Busy
He says he has about all he can
take care of on his farm near this
city and expects to stick to farming

This leaves the field to Hassenstab
of Seaforth and Tolman of Morgan.
These men are both making a hard

seems to be a feeling that Mr.. Hass-

ment. Other names have been men,

reported as to more candidates.

BLIND SENATOR
HERE JUNE 30
Most Eloquent Man in Senate
Speaks on Second Day
of Chautauqua
PRETENDS TO READ HIS NOTES
Wife andlSecretary Help Him
Secure Data For His
Great Speeches

Thomas P. Gore, who speaks here
on Sunday, June 80, the second day
of the chautauqua is a unique char
acter in the United States senate to-
day. He it is who is first pointed out
to the visitor as the blind senator
from Oklahoma.
Nor is Senator Gore remarkab e
only because he is stone blind. He is
conceded to be the most eloquent
and brilliant man in the upper house.
His speeches are listened to wi h
attention and enthusiasm not only
by the crowds that fill the galleries
when he is announced to speak, but
by the staid dignifed Senators en-
floor.
Tries to Hide Kindness
When in action, no spectator in
the gallery unacquainted with the
fact would suspect him of blindness.
He has a trick of holding in his hand
a piece of paper and Of occasionally
turning towards it as though con-
sHlting notes, which makes the uE-
initiated think he is reading from it.
He is an earnest and energetic
speaker. with resonant voice, east
" heard in all parts of the senate
chamber. and a delivery emphasized.
by wild shakings of the head which
seriously muss up his hair.
Keeps Hand ON Book
He has another trick. Always
when speaking. he has a large book
on the table in front of him. Upon
this he places one hand while with
the other he gesticuIates. He alter
mates these hands frequently but
always when one hand leaves the
book, the other seeks it. In this
way he retains his sense Of position
or geography. and knows just where
is his glass of water or bundle of
papers as well as though he had
sight.
The blind Senator has to have
everything read to him. His wife
and secretary do this for him and it
is no easy task. He listens with
close application and when point
is reached upon which he desires
further enlightment. be insists that
other books of reference. shall be
found and that point elucidated be-
fore proceeding further.
The reading covers wide range
of subjects and his mind retains
what he hears so that when be takes
the floor to make speech he is as
well equipped for the debate as 9TH
er men who possess all their senses.

ROOSEVELT
AND TAFT in
HARD fight
Republican Convention Now
In Session at Chicago
Is A Hot One
COMPROMISE BEING DEMANDED
Teddy and Taft Each Claim
the Nomination With
LaFoIIette Hopeful
ALL DEPENDS ON THE SOUTH
Taft Will Win if the Pledged
Delegates Stick to
Administration

There is something doing down in
Chicago today
The national Republican conven-
ton is in session and president and
a former president are fighting as
Fitz ard Jeff never fought.
1t is unique struggle. For the
first time in the history of the nation
a former president is trying for the
nomination and for the first time in
the country's history president has
been utterly repudiated by the man
that made him president.
Warwick Would Be King
Here the King maker wants the
throne.
And the deciding element is the
southern delegate, more especially
the southern negro delegate. Roose-
Welt has been very kind to the col
ored people and they know it and if
there is ghost of a chance they will
flock to him.
Taft Has 600 Votes---But
Taft is claiming. ard doubt LESS has
since the contests weresettled. about
600 votes. AS $40 are necessary to
nominate it is evident that the de-
lection of fifty delegates will defeat
the big man from Ohio.
Roosevelt went to Chicago in per-
son to bring about this greatly de-
sired detection.
Outcome Wrapped In Mystery
The outcome is problematical.
There is little chance of a decision
being reached today or tonight.
And the result may be distant some
days.
Meanwhile La Toilette and Cum
Minis are looking on calmly and hop
ing for the worst deadlock in history.
Has SO Tried and True
Such an event would throw things
into La Follette's hands as he has &c
delegates that will stand hitched.
This is more important because al
ready there has been consistent de-
mand for compromise candidate in
order that the party may be saved.
There has been some grooming of
Hughes but he sticks to the supreme
bench.
Keep your eye on the southern
delegate. The fate of the party is
in the hands of this notorious feeder
at the public troughs.

Florence Garner and Earl Bills:
United In Marriage Last
Wednesday

A pretty wedding occurred on the
evening of June IL at the home Of
James Garner, prosperous farmer,
residing east of this city, when his
oldest daughter Florence was united
in marriage to Earl Bliss. a well
known young man of this city.
About eighty guests from the vic
Unity of Wabasso, Seaforth, Vesta,
Waseca and Redwood Falls were
present to spend most pleasant
evening. The home was beautifully
decorated with fern and roses. Rev.
C. F. Martin of the Christian church
of this city officiated.
The bride has won considerable dis

Not only are bad eggs. etc,
frowned upon but in the future
those having these Objectionable
things in their possession with intent
to sell will have hard time with the
state judiciary.
Mr.. Heiberg suggests that the
only safe way is to have nothing but
fresh eggs and good poultry for sale,
which on the whole looks like good
advice. The Inspector did not claim
to have found any serious infraction
of the law in Redwood.

LEGISLATURE ACTS
STATE WIDE PRIMARY NOW A LAW
Provides For Second Choice With Elimination
Feature Being Identical With the Wis
COnsin Measure

ture shall repeal the state wide pri-
mary law just passed by the. extra
session.
Purpose of Session Accomplished
The measure went through the
senate last Thursday and passed the
house Saturday. Thus was accom-
plished the purpose for which the
law makers convened in extraordi-
nary session. The Law takes effect
at once,
In addition there was gross earn
ings bill increasing the railroad tax,
from four to fiyeper cent utthrough
each branch and stringent corrupt
practices law was enacted.
Reapportionment Raises Its Head
Reapportionment was brought to
life in the house but gaspingly ex-
pired in the instant that gave it birth.
The Woodmen bill calling for a
referendum vote on the proposed in
crease in rates passed the house but
was snuffed out later on.
Senate Gets Hot Roast
Governor Eberhart who called the
session scolded the senate for dodg-
ing about and not working harder.
His shot apparently was aimed at
the energetic young statesman from
Candy, O. A. Lende who had been
bothering about certain recess ap-
pointments made by the governor.
While there was something more
than fringe of politica around the
session still there wasn't the studied
desire to promote political fortunes
that had been expected.
Put Through Lots of Work
It belirved this session accom-
plished in two weeks more than the
regular session did in three months.
Whether or not the work of the
session justified the governors call
is matter of personal opinion. 1t
at least gave the state one badly
needed law and threw a Jar into the
railroads.
Gives A Second Choice
The state primary calls for the
nomination of all officers in the
state by direct vote Of the people,
providing for a first and second
choice with the elimination of the
lowest man and an adding of the
first and second choice votes. 1t is
possible under this law to nominate
candidate by minority vote but
it seems rather difficult to escape
this Objectionable feature. There
are good many people who do not
like the bill as passed though it is
like the law in force in Wisconsin. If
it does not work satisfactorily it can
be amended at the session 1913.
The senate finished its work on
Friday but could not adjourn until
the house was through. The lower
branch completed its appointed task
on Monday and met this morning to
pass upon the journal and adjourn.
