Holdfngford and Albany Papers Are
Booming Hon. Frank Minette
for State Senate.


Cloud Times, who since the temporary
settlement Of the county seat fight has
become very solicitous about the SEN
atorial situation in this district, came
out with boom for Mr.. Schroeder of
Albany. That gentleman failed to fall
for the sop offered by the Times in
place of the county seat.
The Holdingford Advertiser and Al
bany Enterprise have been casting
about for suitable candidate for the
Senate and have concluded that Hon.
Frank Minette of Sank Centre is the
best available man for the honor. The
suggestions of these papers pleases
the Herald. During the past two reg
ular and one special session Of the leg
islature the writer had an opportunity
to study the work Of Mr.. Minette at
close range, and he was generally
looked upon as one Of the strong men
of the House, always dependable and
fighting for the best interests of his
District.
Mr.. Minette's Legislative experience
would make him strong member Of
the Senate from the start, and the
Herald hopes his friends in all por-
tons of the district will take up his
candidacy. Mr.. Minette has not an
nounced his candidacy for the Senate,
but it is understood that he is in a
receptive mood and is willing to make
the race If his friends desire it.
The following excerpts from the
Holdingford and Albany papers Will
be of interest to Herald readers:
There is a rumor travelling around
the district that a mighty good way
to swat the st. Cloud Times hard
one would be to nominate Frank E.
Minette, of Sank Centre, for State
Senator. Mr.. Minette is Represen-
tative from his district now, and a
leader in the fight for a public uti-
lities law. The Times is lying awake
nights to think of man from this dis
trict that it can control, but we have
a bunch its power is gone. Any man
as good as Mr.. Minette, for that place,
will suit us.-Hoidingford Advertiser.
The political pot is beginning to boil
and various men have found their COW
|eted offices land other Offices have
found the apian. The most Important
Of the latter distinction is the fact that
there is considerable talk around the
county for Representative Frank e.
Minette for the state senatorship in
the 46th senatorial district to succeed
Senator J. ]. Amman. Mr.. Minette is
well known throughout the county and
Ii q man who Is fully acquainted with
its interests. He has served his dis
trict well and was elected first to the
legislature in 1902. Since his name
has been. mentioned for the Office we
have heard no end of compliments
from many in these parts and the
Enterprise heartily endorses the Sc
lection Of just such man as Minette
for our next state senator.-Albany
Enterprise.

 Regarding the theory of the marshal that one has no right to make a turn in the middle of a block, MT. Fowler mentions the fact that opposite tho point where he made the turn there is
 an alley in which there is a consid- erable traffic. One would certainly have a right, in the opinion of MT Fowler to make turn to get into that alley if he desired to travel in that tnoToughfare without going to the end Of the block. One coming out Of the alley would have to make such a turn as MT. Fowler was making when the accident happened.

NOT \ PROHIBITION
 BUT POSITIVE FORCE
This Is Real Christianity, Says Dr.
 Page at the Y. M. C. A.

Pace at the Y. M. C. A.
 Real Christianity, not prohibition but a positive force. was the subject of pr. John Pages stirring noon-daY address at the Y. M. c. A. root gar den luncheon yesterday.
 Some people regard religion as a little boy did a public park, said the eloquent divine. The younSStef walked through the park and saw the trees and the grass and the flowers. the birds and squirrels anu the many people. And when he re- turned to his mother, he said m answer to her question, Il saw lots of signs saying, Keep off the grass,'"
 Now real Christianity is not like that The real Christian life is posi- tive and strengthening, and not a life of prohibition.'
 Reviewing the subjects of his pre- vious addresses, Dr. Page announced a new one and briefly outlined It; ..The Present Work of Christ"
 He defined the present work of the Savior as that of medi ltOr between man and God; high priest, who could feel the infirmities of man and ad- vocate. who could represent him who sinned before the court of heaven
 About fifty attended yesterday s luncheon, which was held on the roof garden, high above the streets and overlooking the pleasant valley.

Arizona Corporation Body Holds Important Execu- tive Session, H Hearin g Many Motions and Max ing Noteworthy Orders

The corporation commission in their executive session yesterday had be- fore them many cases and heard a goodly number of pleas, most of which were acted on one way or an other. but part of which had to be deferred till another date. They were in the executive chambers most ot the afternoon and in that time turned out the following decisions.
 In Relation to Mileage.
 An order was issued in the office of the state corporation commission yes terday to all the railroad companies in the state requiring that these com panies file with the commission their mileage built in the time between the first of January past and November 20. The same order also requires that the companies file at the same time the statement of the proposed mileage to be built and finished between the last named date and the first day of the year 1914
 Water Company Motions. The Granite Springs Water company Of Miami, filed with the commission q motion for a rehearing in the matter of their plea in bar. which motion the commission Overruled. The company then filed a second motion asking that | the commission vacate the order set | ting a hearing of the Granite Springs | company for the first day Of December l at Miami, and at the time of filing this l second motion the company stated that 1 they would carry the matter to the su- periOr court for a writ of prohibition in l case the commission failed to grant the 1 request.

 There is just one way to make your cakes rise high and keep al even surface. Have your oven moderate at first, until the cake i9 fully rizcn; then inc1 ease the heat, so as to brown 1t over quickly. Extreme heat stiETcns the dough. If you stiTen the outside of the cake before the rising is complete, you stop the rising process. Then the leavening gas, forming inside, will bulge up the center, where the dough is still soft, and spoil the shape of the cake. a1
 NoTE-Biscuits or other rostrics made from stiff dough, that are cut into shapes for the oven, bake in a hot oven. This Is because the cut surfaces of tie dough do not scar over, but rather leave the pores open, allowing tlcc leavening gas to escape and the heat tG penetrate readily. Small ovens cool quickly; therefore they should be made several degrees hotter than . larger oven, and the less the door Is opened the better. Do not attempt to bake bread and pastry together.

still greater throng followed him.
He fed to the Hotel Scissors, thinking
to escape, in its gardens of several
acres, the confusion that had hitherto
beset him. But matters were only
made worse and soon more than 500
tents reared themselves upon his
beautiful grounds, all of them filled
with the money-maddened seekers of
his Mississippi stock.
In the meantime prosperity every
where smiled. Everybody seemed to
be on the highway of fortune. The
great Mississippi bubble was now full
blown. France was announcing itself
as proud in giving birth to such Q
genius as Law. Suddenly some PEG
pie began to have suspicious and
started to sell out, changing the paper
to gold and silver. The Prince dc
Cont. having been offended by some
transaction with Law, demanded ma
terial for his paper and it took thret
wagonleads to carry the money from
the bank to his house.
Even the Regent, who had set hi
stamp of approval on the scheme, be

able to work a scheme of fraud as
did Law, and while he swindled a
mighty public out of millions of dol
lars, yet with all his cleverness he
was unable to profit by 1t, and even
tually became a wanderer and died in
Venice in 1929 in the midst of distress
ing poverty.
During the height of his Mississippi
Scheme fortune favored him to the
extent that he was elected general
controller of the public finances of
France, an honorary member of the
sent him the freedom of that city
enclosed in gold box. George II
helped along his scheme by personally
dabbling in stock, and out of some of
the revenue that was handed to him he
purchased sixteen large estates, pay
ing for them 100000 livres. AS an
example of how the money came in,
Laws cashier sent 100000 livres to
other countries and then defaulted for
the amount.
John Law was born in Edinburgh
in 1871. When his father died he
went to London and became a gam
bier. Becoming involved in a duel
in which he killed his victim, he fed
the country and for fourteen years
roamed about the continent winning
his living at the various games of
chance and by his hypnotic influence
over rich members of the fair sex.
When his friend, the Duke of Or
leans, became regent of France in
1715, the national debt of the country
amounted to 8 III, 100000 livres, and
it was on the verge of ruin. 1t was at
this crisis that Law came forward and
offered to save it with his scheme of
paper money. This was the start of
his efforts at "Frenzied Finance" for
which he entirely receives the blame
I of the historian, but it is very evident
that the regent and others high in
power, if not directly implicated, at
least gave their official sanction to
the Scotchman in order to save them
selves.
His scheme of issuing paper money
worked sufficiently well that it was
an easy matter for him to start two
years later, in 1717, his Mississippi
Scheme, a company for the purchas-
ing of the stock that would control
the tract of land on the American con-
tinent through which the Mississippi
flowed, this being then French prop
erty
Shares of this stock first sold for
$125. 1t was only a very short time
before the price rose $3.50 and then
jumped to $3.50, and in November,
1719, to $4,000. The people became
delirious in their desire for wealth

warning; that the notes were safer
than the specie, and lastly. in des-
peration it was forbid that anyone
should have more than 500 livres in
his possession!
But the big bubble had expanded
until the outside pressure made it
burst. With a decree ordering all
payment to be made with paper, new
notes were issued to the amount Of
$500, 100000 livres, while the value of
the specie of the country was only
half of this. Then the inevitable hap
pened. Notes became waste paper;
100000 livres in the pocket could not
buy a loaf of bread. Law himself be-
came bankrupt and was ordered out
of France. There was a panic, then
riot, and then various tragedies in
the outcome. Law was himself So i'm
bued with the success Of his scheme
that he came out OF it bankrupt, and
although he generally gets the entire
blame for his Mississippi Bubble, yet
1t would be reasonable to suppose tina,
such a scheme could not be carried
on to the extent that 1t was done In
France without the sanction and as
sistance of those high in power.
