article is aware, he sought out none
but the political worker, with whom
he held a conference lasting several
hours, in the drink dispensary and
the hotel lobby. Whether he met his
confrere by appointment is known
only to the parties to the conference
and possibly to the powers that be in
the marble pile on capitol hill, st.
Paul. Andy was SO busy with his politi.
cal conference in the drink dispen-
sary and the hotel lobby that he did
MT even have time to go to room No
5, to which he was assigned. Looks
as though he made hurry up trip
and got back to the Sanity City as
soon as he could after he had con-
cluded his mission.
This conference can be viewed from,
several interesting angles. For one
thing, Andy draws salary to look
after the states business. 1t is doubt
full whether even Pinkerton detec-
tive Or az astbss legai advisor could
discover in the laws end the statutes
of Minnesota anything requiring
Andy or any other state Officer to
make night pilgrimages for the pur-
pose of holding political conferences
in drink dispensaries and hotel lob
bies. Again, there may be some doubt
in the minds of the plain people and
the voters whether Andy can stength-
ell the cause of his gubernatorial
chief by doing that sort of thing.
And again, it is just possible that,
in taking upon his hands the contract
to deliver the Stearns county repub-
lean delegation to the present COVER
dor, Andy, to use slang and a mixed
metaphor, has "bitten off more than
fire. can chew" 1tpd once agai,s in
his zeal to, FURTHER the political for
tunes of the executive who rewarded
his political service with an appoint
ment to state office, is not Andy like
ly to jeopardize the interests of some
whose friendship in the long run is
worth as much as is that of Mime
sofas present executive and the bos-
ses and henchmen with which that
gentle is hedged about?
The incident is interesting in that
it casts a strong side light upon the
men and the methods employed to
swing things into line for the "Man
of Destity." A. M. W.

AMYSTtRIOUS MISSION
Meets Political Worker in Buffet
and Holds C0nfab Lasting
Till Early Morning

Andy Fritz has undertaken the con;
tract to deliver the Stearns county re-
publican delegation to the present in
cumbent of the governors chair.
Andy holds down the Office of pub
Tic examiner by grace of the present
governor, so of course nothing is more
natural sRan that Andy should strain
a suspender or two in the effort to
render quid pro quo.
ANDY was appointed to state Of
ice as reward for political services.
In conversation with the writer of
this article some two years ago, the
Governor of Minnesota, In response to
"a question, said in substance that
Andy had done some good work for
him {the goyernor) in Northern Min
nesota while travelling in the interest
af :. printing establishment Of which
Andy was a joint proprietor. While
the governor did not say so in so
many words, the writer of this article
received the impression that the APP
pointment was made as reward for
aforesaid services. And it has been
quite generally understood that such
is the case.
Anyway, Andy has been one of the
big hustlers for the denomination of
the present governor. His duties as
public examiner take him to different
parts of the state, and what more
natural than that he should put in a
good word for his chief? Books and
things can be examined during the
/, day and political fences repaired at
night.
Andy came up to Sank Centre last
week Thursday evening. 1t is posi-
BILE that Andy came to examine some
books, but such did not appear on
the face'of things.
Andy arrived on til e Winnipeg
Flyer; which is due here at $3.50 o. m.
: The train was about on time that
. evening. Andy came up town and
registered at the Palmer House, be-
ing assigned to room No. S. He did

the Palmer House Buffet, the apart
ment in that lostelry where spiritu-
Gus, vinous and malt liquors are sold
under license from the municipality
of Sank Centre. There Andy met a
political worker Andy and the polit-
ical worker entered zone of the stalls
and remained there some time. That
matters political were under discus
sion is witnessed by the fact that the
talk became at times more or less
loud, so audible in fact that persons
in adjoining stalls overheard some of
the discussion.
Now, the laws of tire common
wealth provide that all places where
strong drink is sold must close at IL

the political worker met in the Buffet,

Doctor Substitutes Bones of
Heel for Hip Joint.

New York, Nov. 16.-One of the most
interesting exhibits prepared for the
surgeons attending the National Clin-
ical Congress here is shown at the Cor
nell Medical college. In a series of
demonstra tions Prof. John Murlin is
showing the ''headless cat" as the sui
ject of physiological experiment. It is
declared possible to keep headless cats
alive several days, if necessary. In the
experiments that are being carrie5 on
at present, it is rarely necessary to keep
them alive longer than IL hours. The
purposes of the experiments is to study
the ref1exes of the nervous system.
What surgeons cite as evidence of
rapid advance in surgical progress is
the extent to which bone transplanta-
tion figures in operations that are being
performed in this city this week. Sew
eral of these operations show that bones
can be kept in cold storage for use
whenever occasion arises.
On Tuesday. DR.. Fred H. Albee re-
moved the astrag galus from the heel of
a patient in the Post Graduate hospital,
and last night in the amphitheater of

Woman's Suffrage League Will Not
Disband, Says President.

Much question has arisen as to
whether the Kansas Equal Suffrage
league will disband after its successful
and strenuous campaign. Mrs. w. A
Johnston, president of the association,
decla1 es emphatically that this is not
the case.
How could Colorado and Cali
fornia have helped u.s." she remarked,
eff they had disorganized after their
enfranchisement? We intend to keep
the league most decidedly alive for
purposes of reciprocity"
A plan is on foot to join the ten
states possessing equal suffrage into
one large union and fraternal league.
Mrs. Johnston, of course, has been
receiving hundreds of congratulatory
epistles. A letter dated Havana,
Cuba, from Helen Kimber, past presi-
dent of the Kansas Federation, is of
particular interest. News of the vic
tory travelled with alarming speed and
doubled as it flew. The majority had
increased 15, 900 by the time it reached
the West Indies.

THEY GAVE TO WILSON
Nearly $1,000 Persons Contributed to
Campaign Fund.

New York, Nov. 16.-The names of
nearly $1,000 persons who contributed
to the Woodrow Wilson campaign fund
have been made public in accordance
with the new laws. This is the largest
number ever recorded as contributors
to a campaign fund.
Charles R. Cranes $4,000 gift was
the largest and Cleveland Dodge's
$4,000 the next on the list, but these
donations were the exception, since the
great majority were well under $10,-
600. The total of the fund amounted
to $1,1OO,O00, which is more than suf-
ficient to pay all the expenses of the
campaign.

HAS 81.
His Majority Over Capper on
Returns.
All Counties Official Except
WyandOtte, Estimated.
and year out7'

Senator George H. Hodges leads for
governor today by 81 votes, with re-
turns in the hands of the secretary of
state from all counties except Wyan-
dotte. These figures do not include any
of a score of changes on supplemental
reports which will be checked up to the
state canvassing board for final de-
cision.
A gain of four votes for Hodges was
made last night when Allen county re-
ported, giving the Democratic candi-
date 1873 majority instead of 179. This
morning Sedgwick reported, giving
Hodges 1874 majority instead of 1876, a
loss of one vote. This, with a lead of %
votes maintained yesterday afternoon
gives Hodges the better of the argu-
ment at the present time, with a lead
of 81 votes. The official returns from
Wyandotte may be received late this
afternoon
Reno county gives Hodges As ma
jority, Cherokee $50 majority, Sedg-
wick 294; Allen 1873, Logan 205 for
ceived in Topeka and are the official
returns Reno will make a supple
mental report covering an additional
gain of 13 votes for Hodges, increas-
ing his majority in that county to 5S.
But none of these supplemental gains
are carried in the State Journals
table.
The official popular vote received
by the two candidates together with
the majorities in the various counties
carried in the table for Hodges by
1,728 majority. This is the last report
from that county, but final returns to
the secretary of states office may
make a change in that figure. These
final figures show a popular vote of
10000 for Capper, while with the l.
72S majority in Wyandotte, gives
Hodges 16o,O93-a majority of 81.
