Died From Hydrophobia.

!. o. O. Whited of Minneapolis died
of hydrophobia at his home in that
city early Tuesday morning. Mr..
Whited had been bitten in the face
by pet coach dog on July 7. He
had taken the Pasteur treatment for
hydrophobia at the state UNIVERSE
ty. It requires three weeks from
the last injection of the Pasteur
treatment before immunity can be
secured, and there was no opportuni-
ty for the treatment to develop the
it usually confers before
Mr.. Whited was taken with parox-
ysms. Deceased was related to the
late Mrs. B. M. Van Alstein and
Mrs. Hattie E. Cowles of this vii
lage. He was also interested in
considerable real estate in Kanabec
county. Mr.. Whited was genial,
kind-hearted man and his terrible
death is regretted by large circle
of friends.

A few days ago a rich Minneapolis
lumber baron, H. G. Akeley, died.
He had accumulated a large fortune
some of it by methods that would
not bear close inspection. On sever
al occasions he was compelled to
make restitution to the state for
pine timber surreptitiously taken
from it's lands. Now it appears that,
prior to his demise,s he arranged
matters so that his large estate will
escape paying an inheritance tax in
this state.

The story that Woodrow Wilson
was blackba1led by the aristocratic
Manhattan club of New York is
without foundation. His name as
an'9applicant for membership was
proposed without his request,
knowledge or consent, and was with
drawn before balloted on. There are
INSCRIPTIONS newspapers which are
ever ready to distort the truth-to
make mountains out of molehills-
order to blacken a mans character,
especially if he is a candidate for
office. We question whether Wilson
would accept - membership in the
Manhattan club.

That Uncle Joe Cannon is not dead
was forciblv demonstrated day or
two ago by a little stunt pulled off
by him in the national house of rep
resentatives. This consisted in the
overturning of the democratic ma

tion in the sundry civil appropria-
tion bill of a senate amendment
setting apart the sum of $500, 900 for
additional employees in the pension
office. No, Uncle Joe is not dead

have no opposition for reelection

satisfactory because his decisions are

unit rule, which was discarded as un.
fair by the Republican party as long
ago as 1880. The primaries were held
and while Roosevelt carried the state
at large by a great majority, Taft was
successful in the Fourth Congressional
district, which embraces a portion of
the city of San Francisco. The claim
is made by the opposition that the
boundary line between the Fourth and
Fifth districts is not clearly defined,
several precincts lying in both dis
tricts. If that is the case, it would
seem that the only reasonable action to
take would be to throw out the vote
of these precincts, and that is exactly
what the committee did. In any event,
the Taft delegates from this district
had a prima facie right to their seats,
and the merits of the case must be set
tied by the committee on credentials.
Had the National committee a dis
position to be arbitrary, it might with
technical Justice have thrown out the
entire California delegation, for the
reason that it was not elected in &C
cordance with the rules of the party,
laid down in the call.
