TWO DEAD AND ONE DYING
Terrific Explosion Occurs During Fire
at Dawson.

Terrific Explosion Occurs During Fire
at Dawson.
Chief Elmer Thompson of the Daw-
son volunteer fire department and an.
other man were killed and third is
dying as the result of a terrific explo.
sion which shook the entire city in
| the course of a 100000 fire there.
! A small explosion in the basement
Of A. G. Holtan's restaurant was the
original cause of the fire. Matt Wier,
with his wife and several children,
occupied an apartment above the res
taurant. The floor of the entire side
Of his room was lifted by it's force.
He managed to get his family to the
street.
The firemen and large crowd Of
spectators were in front of the build.
ing when the main explosion occurred.
1t was accompanied by vibrations
which shook the country for miles
around and awakened farmer six
miles away.
-Four thousand dollars worth of
glass was scattered in the immediate
neighborhood. When the crash came
the roof rose bodily and the solid
brick front of the building leaped for
ward upon the tiremen and spectators.
Thompson was buried beneath a
shower of stone slabs, iron girders
and debris. Herbert Farmen, who
was close by him. was struck in the
head by stone and instantly killed.
Thompson lived for an hour and a
half,

URGES ACTION TO
COMBAT DISEASE
Governor EbeThart ProcIaims
'Hog Cholera Week."

Governor Adolph O. Eberhart has
issued proclamation setting aside
the period from April IA to April
rs as Hog Cholera Week." and
urging that all farmers organiza-
'tions, by whatever name they may be
designated, hold local meetings, at
which time they should thoroughly
discuss this question and call to their
aid the state experimental station,
the agricultural press, the daily press,
the county press and all other sources
Of information or means whereby the
public may become generally conver-
SAINT with the present SITUATION
The governor cites the tremendous
economic loss caused by hog cholera
during 1913 and declares that the pre-
vention of similar losses in 1914 is a
matter that vitality concerns all the
people of the state and it is common
ly understood that the disease can
only be prevented and stamped out by
an enlightened public through a cam
paign of education which will give
an understanding of the disease, its
methods of infection and spread and
it's prevention and cure.
According to the best authorities,
the governor says, hog cholera spreads
through lack Of strict quarantine regu-
lations which, if not recognized, will
eventually infect all of the hog rails
ing sections of the Northwest. There
are a great many infected communi-
ties through Minnesota at the pres
ent time and it is believed that when
warm weather arrives there will be
other serious outbreaks of the dis
ease unless the public generally be-
comes aware of the situation and
takes measures to unitedly stamp it
out.

No DELAY IN EXECUTIONS
Four SIayers Of Herman Rosenthal.
New York Gambler, Put to Death
in Thirty.niae Minutes.

Ossining, N. Y, April 14.-The four
gunner convicted of the murder Of
Herman Rosenthal, the New York
city gambler, were executed in Sing
Sing prison.
1t was just thirty-nine minutes from
the time the first shock was given
'Dago Frank" Cirofici the first to die
Until Lefty Louie" Rosenberg, the
last of the four, was pronounced dead,
Whitley Lewis" Jacob Seiden-
schner) was the only one OF the gun
men to make statement in the
deathhouse and none made a confess
sion. Seidenschner declared the wit
nesses against him had perjured
themselves and swore he was not
guilty. He was the second man exc
cuted.
"Gyp the Blood (Harry Horowitz)
was the third. He went to his death
terror stricken and apparently on the
verge of collapse.
''Dago Frank was pronounced dead
at 5:44, Whitley Lewis at 5:52,
"Gyp the Blood at 6:03 and "Lefty
Louie" at 6:17. 1t required four
shocks to kill Lefty LOUIE" two were
sufficient for the others.
Father Cashin, the Catholic chap
lain of Sing Sing, walked to the death
chair with "Dago Frank" Rabbi
k4;,
Jews.
Seidenschner Asserts Innocence.
Whitley Lewis" last word was a.
denial of his guilt. He was calm and
fully aware of all that was going on
about him. He stepped into the death
chamber, preceded by Rabbi Gold
stein. Before taking his place in the,
chair he said:
"Gentlemen, want to say for the
sake of justice the witnesses who
swore against me perjured them
selves. 1 swear before God that Il
did not shoot Rosenthal"
Seidenschner died hard, his bodyk
convulsivelys jumping as the, currentE
was applied.
"Gyp the Blood" Horowitz seemed
paralyzed with fear when he wasE
strapped to the chair. His eyes pro-
truded. Two shocks were given him.
Lefty Louie" the last, died hard
est. The preceding had been given
two shocks each, but four were neces-
sary before Rosenberg was pro-
nOunced dead.
Herman Rosenthal was murdered
at a. m. July 16, 1912. He had been
furnishing District Attorney Whit
man with evidence of police grating
which connected Police Lieutenant
Becker with gamblers. He had been

ORCHARD AND GARDEN NOTES
Spring is the best time to set ouf
all kinds of fruits.
No place is too small to afford some
garden or plant growth.
DO not cover fine seed deeply. Put
on just enough dirt to cover the seed.
Take the cuttings Of all house plants
that are to be planted out next spring.
Most of the bulbs put into the cellar
last fall are we'll rooted now and ready
to bring into the living rooms.
!: Go over the vegetables and fruits in
the cellar and pick out those that are
decayed.-
Use. wood ashes as garden fertil-
lzer, working them into the soil of rose
beds and about fruit plants.
The roots of rhubarb put into the
cellar last fall ought to be giving out
. good supply Of stalks now which will
be relished as fresh sauce.
Bring in. branches Of plums, pussy
willows, and poplars and put them into
water. They will open up and add
brightness to the room.
Plants like sweet alyssum, nastur.
tiums, and some vegetables, as radish
and lettuce, may be grown in a fiat or
window box if no other place is avail
able.
Good topics for discussion in the
farmers club this month are
The Vegetable Garden
The Best Potatoes to Plant
How to Secure Good Strawberry

Wheaton Footprints: One Of the
favorable signs Of the times is the agi-
tation for doing away with the tax
on Improvements. The penalizing and
discouraging of improvements by tax
ing them is simply relic Of the ma
tion g first efforts at taxation. Many
of our usages are due to precedents
and customs established long years
ago and their retention are monuments
to that inclination Of man as expressed
in the Declaration of Independence.
To suffer evils, while suffrable, rather
than to right themselves by abolishing
forms to which they are accustomed. It
is this iclination that makes progress
so slow. The so called conservative IS
usually the mill stone around the neck

DON'T NEGLECT THE INITIA-
TIVE, THE REFERENDUM AND
THE RECALL


Duluth Herald: Perhaps it is be-
cause it is so early, but there ism t so
much talk yet as rnere should be
about the three safeguards Of demo
cracv that the people have a chance to
vote into the state Constitution this
November-the initiative, the referen-
dunn and the recall.
There ought to be good deal OF
talk about these proposals.
They are very important, very rev
olutionary-either very good for US
or very bad.
Ii they are beaten, it ought to be
because they are bad, not merely by
neglect.
If they are good, they ought to WIN
decisively, and not be lost through
public neglect.
For The Herald g part, it believes
they are not only good, but vitally
necessary-perhaps not now, but sure
to be some day.
President Wilson, with his rare fac
ulty for crowding so much into a
phrase, spoke of them as "the gun be-
hind the door, We hope we won t
need them at all, but when we do neet-
them we want them handy.
just now, it is true, we need them
as little as we have needed them in a
generation. Law-making bodies and
public servants just now are alacri-
tous, even eager, to find out the public
will and do it. In fact, when it Is
possible to get through a legislature
measures submitting these fundamen-
tai changes to the people, that legis-
lature is in such a frame of mind that
the checks Of the initiative, the refer
endum and the recall are little needed.
But this condition may be tempor-
ary-beyond any doubt it is temper
ary. The people have been neglectful
before and have let control get into
designing and disloyal hands. They
will be neglectful again, and again
control will get into designing and
disloyal hands.
And then we shall need these tools
of democracy, this "gun behind the
door, the Initiative, the referendum
and the recall.
The people need. them in their bust
ness. If they ratify the two consti-
tutional amendments providing them,
then they will have them for keeps.
They will be there whenever they are
needed, right behind the door within
easy reach.
1t is as safeguards, as checks upon
representative government, as "the
gun behind the door, that The Her.
aid believes in these things.
They are working best when they
are not used at all because they arc
not needed.
The initiative is to enable the people
to enact needed legislation if the
legislature refuses. When the legis-
lature does what the people want, the
initiative is not needed; but it is wise
to have it handy in case the legisla.
ture ever ceases to do the peoples
will.
The referendum is to enable the
people to veto bad laws if the legis
lature enacts them. When the legisla-
ture is loyal to the people, the referen-
dun is not needed; but it is wise to
have it handy in case the legislature
begins to do things it oughtn' t to do.
The recall is to enable the people to
discharge a disloyal public servant. If
public servants are loyal, the recall is
not needed; but it is wise to have it
handy in case public servants grow
careless.
All three Of these things Minnesota
needs and wants, and there should be
more talk about them so they will not
perish from neglect.

WHO SUFFERS THE MOST?

Red Wing Daily Eagle: Who suffers
the most, asks the Virginia Enterprise,
when husband and father is sent
to prison for some minor offense,
while his wife and family remain at
home to become public charges.
Yesterday, the Enterprise says, the
mother Of three children found the
battle of life going against her. Her
husband was sent to the county farm.
some time ago to serve a sentence of
ninety days. She applied for aid and
was informed by the authorities that
she and her family could be taken care
of at the poor farm.
'Before I 60 there I will take my
life,' she said.
"Pride,' you will say. Perhaps.
But wouldn't it be better if there
were some line of distinction. Would
Mt it be better if this man could be
made to serve out the sentence he
justly deserves at some remunerative
labor and the money turned over to
his wife for the support of herself and
their children.
Could such a plan be worked out AZ
the county farm! If this man could
earn dollar a day and his family
could be given the money, wouldn It
they both be better off
Who suffers the most to-day, he or
they1
Should they suffer?
What's to be done about this case
and hundreds identical with it. This
woman has honestly tried and failed.
So have hosts of others. Who are We
Furnishing most3 Should we!

st. Peter Free Press: There appears
to be a systematic move under way
to create hostile public sentiment
against the state board of control
system. Whether that move is mere
ly the outgrowth Of animosity to-
wards individual members of the
board, Or was inaugurated for the
purpose Of shifting the authority and
emoluments Of the board to other
quarters has not been made clear, but
it is evident that a change is desired
by interested parties and that moth
ing will be left undone to gain that
end: But why change that system at
ally The state board of control has
certainly done excellent work and
has proved to be Of substantial bene-
tit to the state, and that is more than
can be said Of most of the other state
boards. If there is to be a process of
elimination let it be based upon sound
business principles. We can get along
with most of the other state boards,
but this particular one is not among
them.
