of the most remarkable in the history
of surgery in this section. Beernaert
was sent to the penitentiary and re-
manned there IL months.
The bullet having severed the
nerves controlling the limbs, it was
decided to amputate them. One of
them has been taken off, and it is
probable the other may be removed
when the physical condition of the
patient permits.
a helpless invalid, Marguerite is
trying to earn what she can for the
support of herself and child. The
Christmas season is approaching, and
she wants Santa Claus not TO forget
her little girl. The only method she
has of securing funds is through the

New York, Nov. 13.-Tammany Hall
has n new foe to fight for political
supremacy on the east side. Meyer
London, socialist. who has just defeat
ed Tammany's candidate for congress,
Judge" Goldfogle, announces him
self as the leader of the east side
Il think l am not saying too much
he said, when l say that l am now
the leader of the people of the east
side. The people here know me. l
live among them all the year round.
and believe that they have been
waiting for Meyer London
The last real leader on the east
side was the late Big Tim" Sullivan.
Congressman London says the days
Of the Sullivans and all other Tam
many henchmen are past as far as
leading the people on the east side
is concerned.
"Tammany has had its day" he
said. THE people have at last come
into their own, and it will be my
work to see that they keep what they
have earned.
What will l do when I take my
seat in congress? Well. the first
thing l have in mind is to make war
on war. This war in Europe must be
ended. The United States can end it
if il wants to. As soon as we stop
supplying these warning nations with
the things that make war and main
tain war, things will change.
Il propose to introduce a resolu-
ton in congress to put an end to the
shipment of all foodstuffs to Europe,
to put an end TO the shipment of any
stuff that means war munition.
'Starve them out is my slogan. OF
course l expect opposition, but that
will not deter me from keeping up
the fight l shall have the support of
other socialists in congress; l shall
have the support of men and women
throughout the country who have an
innate hatred of murder. and that is
what war is-just brutal murder
Meyer London has been a popular
hero on the east side for II years. To
day in the "Old Twelfth" congression-
al district the people idolize him. He
came to this county as a boy from
Russia and has lived on the east side
ever since. He was admitted to the
bar in 1898 and since then has been
the legal adviser of Jewish trade
unions. In 1912 he came near beating
Goldfogle; he has always claimed that
Tammany counted him out. Social
lists describe him as one of their econ
servatives." In his business relations
with trade unions he has advocated
peaceful settlement of disputes
wherever possible.

BIG GROWTH IN REVENUES
Minnesota Will Collect About $4,000
600 During 1914.

The state of Minnesota will re-
ceive from taxation and other reve-
nue. sources approximately $17,152,000
during 1914, according to table pre-.
pared by Secretary ], S. Pardee of the
state efficiency and economy commits
sion. The startling growth of the
states income is indicated by com
parison with 1912, when the total was
but 3,520,00O. Mr. Pardee's estimate,
although most conservative, shows an
increase of IS, 900 in the course of
two years.
The next task before the commits
sion and its secretary il to analyze
the method of disposing Of these
funds. The members are trying to
find out exactly what is done with the
money thus collected, where it goes
and the work it accomplishes. When
this is ascertained the commission be-
lieyes it will be able better to suggest
economy measures.
