DULUTH To
CLASP HANDS
WITH n. D.
Zenith City Business Men to
Spend Week in State
Complete Itinerary of Their
Tour Made Public
Will Travel 1851 Miles and
Visit 148 Towns

Duluth, Mimi, May 23.-On Sun
day evening, June 1. at 6:15. nearly
100 Duluth business men, accompani- :.
ed by the Third Regiment band. will
leave for North Dakota to spend six
days making Duluth better known and
appreciated in the FIickertail state.
They will travel 1851 miles, visit las
towns and return to Duluth Sunday
morning, June 8, at 8:35.
The trade extension committee of
the commercial club now has the sigma
lures of a sufficient number of busf-
ness men to make the trip financially
possible and a success in the numeri-
cal strength of the party. The conn
mittee is now busy making the final
arrangements. Caps, penants and
badges will be furnished the travellers,
liberal amount of literature will be
arranged for distribution, and the
boosting of former trips will be sur-
passed in spectacular features and
intensity.
The territory to be covered lies
along the main line of the Great
Northern from Grand Forks to Minot
and on all lines running north frepa
IJhe, main line 5Haa aaf mot the re1
turn to Duluth will be made via Fargo
over the Fargo Surrey cut off, new
territory recently opened and made
available as Duluth trade territory.
Fifth Trade Excursion.
The trade excursion is the fifth un-
dertaken by the commercial club, two
having been held in 1911 and two IN
1912. Each of the former trips re-
quired only three days, but on account
of the extent of the territory to be
covered this year, six days will e
given and the boosters will require a
great store Of energy to maintain the
pace through the six days.
Duluth is the natural gateway to
North Dakota. The city has gained
firm financial footing in the state, and
has the friendship of the people. The
business men of Duluth will go out to
make a friendly call on the towns
along the route and will also take the
opportunity of learning something of
the commercial and Industrial Iro-
gress of the towns visited.
On account of the large number of
towns to be visited, the stops will
necessarily be short, and the travellers
will depart from a former rule by
travelling at night. The Monday night
stop will be made at Grand Forks, and
the train will leave there at 1880 p.
m. and travel to Hannah, a four-hour
trip. The second night, trip will be
made from Sarles to Hansboro, five
hours. There will be no travelling the
third night, the train lying at Dun
seth. The fourth night will be spent
at Maxbass and the fifth night at
Minot The final night will be &C.

DR.. Henry van Dyke.

DR.. Henry van Dyke, professor
of literature at Princeton; uni,
versity, and long prominent
Presbyterian, has challenged his
church organization to try a
grown man" for what some mem
bers call heresy, rather than his
son, who has just been ordained.
Young Tertius van Dyke and
three other graduates of the Union
Theological Seminary of New
York, which has long had differ
ences with the church, were
ordained with DR.. Paul van Dyke,
the uncle, and DR.. Henry van
Dyke, the father, officiating. Dur
Ing the remarks of DR.. Paul van
Dyke, tears streamed down the
face of the father. In his address
the latter had this to say about
charges of heresy:
You know that new attempt
has been made lately in the
Presbyterian church to exalt the
letter above the spirit in judging
of the fitness of men for the
Christian pulpit. Four true heart
ed and devoted young men, among
whom. is my dear son who is to be
ordained tonight, have offered
their lives to the service of Christ
in the ministry. They have con-
fessed their faith in God the
Father as the almighty ruler OF
the universe, in the Holy Spirit
speaking in the Bible as the SUI
pTeme authority in matters of
religion, and in Jesus Christ as the
r Divine Redeemer. But protest
has been made against their ac-
ceptance because they cannot give
a literal affirmation to certain test
questions proposed by a theologi-
cal inquisitor. ~.e
"The Presbytery Of New York
has warmly welcomed the young
men and disregarded the protest.
But it is being pushed in public
and private and the effort is made
to produce a judgment that these
young men are heretics and that
the church ought not to receive
them as preachers of Christ.
Well, whatever comes of the
protest, + wish to take my stand
with these young men. They are
my brothers in the faith. If they
are unfit for the ministry I am
unfit"

Tokyo. May 23sThe official report
that Emperor Yoshihito is i'll with
pneumonia, the constant attendance of
one or more of the eight court physi-
clans and the vigil which Empress
Sadaka kept at his bedside last night,
made it appear his condition is grave.
The entire. Japanese empire is de-
pressed by the news. The court
physicians this morning said the
emperor's temperature had risen over
103 degrees fahrenheit, his pulse
ninety and his respiration thirty. His
high fever last night is apparently
unabated.
The patient is at Aoyama palace,
on, whose parade ground is an i'm
mense crowd. He contracted a cold
while reviewing the troops last Sun
day. 1t had been intended to remove
him to the newer Chiyoda palace but
the sudden serious turn necessitated
the abandonment of the plan.
The issuance of the first bulletin
shocked the people greatly. Great
crowds gathered before the palace
where people knelt and prayed frev-
emily for the speedy recovery of their
sovereign.
The court circles are still in mourn
ing for the late Emperor Mutsuhito.
The period expires July 80, year
from the date of his death

leRccd by Pres. Wilson
Manufacturers Ask for Exten-
sion on Tariff Bill

Washington, May 23.-Representa-
tive Sisson Of Mississippi, made the
announcement he would make a
Japanese speech in the house. Presi-
dent Wilson, after Mr.. Sisson recently
made his war speech" called the
representative to the white house and
asked him not to make another speech
that might complicate the diplomatic
negotiations with Japan or inflame the
public mind.
Mr.. Sisson today disclaimed any in
tention of making a war speech, but
attacked the position that the treaty
Is making powers of the sovereign
states.
Mr.. Sisson declared he took the posi-
tion mot because the Japanese were
involved, but that he would take it
toward any other nation and 1t only
required patience and cool heads for
both countries to arrive at an amic-
able,l fair and just settlements Of all
differences"
Manufacturers Protest
The announcement of the finance
committee to hear no more tariff
arguments after next Tuesday,
brought from all parts Of the country
appeals for an extension of time. They
will be disregarded, however, and all
manufacturers who have inquired
have been notified they may file briefs
up to the time the bill is reported to
the senate.
The corridors Of the capitol are
thronged with people desiring to be
heard before the doors Of committee
room close Tuesday night.
State Senator Ross of Massachu-
sets. representing the United Textile
Workers of America. appealed to
Senator Johnson's committee for not
too great a reduction on the cotton
manufacturers as is proposed.

Senators Francis G. Newlands
of Nevada and Thomas J. Walsh
OF Montana have within the past
few days. shown distinct indica-
tions that they would not vote for
sfree wool as provided for in the
underwood tariff bill now before
&the. senate. Walsh, insists on duty
on wool and NeWlands may side
With him. gs -
~ Since Senator's; ThorRtor1s and
Il Ransdell OF Louisiana have made
it plain they viii not accept free
sugar, the detection of the west
ern men would mean a loss of four
democratic votes. This makes the
democratic majority in the upper
house SO close that it may be nee
essary for Vice President Marshall
to cast the deciding vote when the
bill comes UP. Yet the situation
has not cleared. and no definite
statements may be made as to the
final lineup. Since the tariff dis
cussion may go on during the
summer there will likely be many
changes before. the bill goes to a
third reading. II
Senator Walsh notified demo-
cratic members Of the finance
committee that if an amendment
is offered in the senate to put a
duty on wool he, will be compelled
to vote for it, regardless of. the at
titude that the caucus may take.

Administering the Oath.
All this does not require much space
in the telling, but when it is reflected
that some of these divisions represent
ed hundreds of people and that they
included all the chief officials of the
United States government of all de-
partments, the accredited delegates
from all foreign nations and some of
the most distinguished men and wo-
men in private life some realization
may be had of what it all meant
Arrived at the temporary stand
where hundreds of people were already
seated and tens of thousands more
were banked in front of the stand, the
high dignitaries took the places allot-
ted to them and prepared to solemnize
the chief event of the day.
( For the first time Chief Justice Ed
ward ID. White administered the oath,
his predecessor, Chief Justice Mel
vile w. Fuller, having officiated at
the last six public inaugurations. In
a firm voice the president-elect re.
peated after the venerable chief JUS
tice the oath, bowing to kiss the Bible
at its close. The boom of cannon and
the cheers of the mighty concourse
announced the fact that William How
ard Taft was now a private citizen.
The inaugural address was delivered
in the easy manner and full voice for
which President Wilson is already ia
nous, but the crowd was so enormous
that only those nearest the platform
could hear. These cheered the telling
points, especially the brief reference
to the tariff and the striking sentences
such as "our work is a work of res
toration, Justice and only justice
shall always be our motto and this
Is not day of triumph; it is a day
of dedication" Many complimentary
references were made to the lofty tone
of the address. In it's brevity, pithi-
ness and high moral plane it is likened
to the inaugural addresses of Lincoln.
In the journey back to the White
House President Wilson and Mr.. Taft
exchanged places in the first carriage,
the new president now on the right
hand and the ex-president on the left.
Wilson was cheered almost continu.
ously throughout the mile of Pennsyl-
vana avenue extending between the
capitol and the treasury building At
the White House luncheon was served
to the presidential and vice presi-
dental parties.
Mr.. Taft, whose treatment of his
successor throughout the day had been
the soul of courtesy and good feeling,
excused himself soon after the lunch.
