HOG CHOLERA PREVALENT
Losses This Year May Be as Great as
in 1918.

Losses from hog cholera in Mime
sofa probably will be as great this
year as they were last, according to
reports received by DR.. s. H. Ward,
secretary of the state live stock sani-
tary board. The losses to the farmers
of the state during 1913 totaled about
$8,000,000.
Hog cholera has seized the pigs on
the farm conducted by the state board
of control at the ST. Peter hospital.
C. j. SWendsen of the board has just
returned to St. Paul from visit to
st. Peter and said 100 hogs died of
cholera at the hospital farm last week.
In order to prevent spread of the
disease twenty-one valuable hogs
were killed. While Mr.. Swendsen was
at the farm piggery four hogs died of
the disease.
Dr. Ward said the cholera is mostly
confined to the southern part of the
state. Federal officers are now in
that section investigating conditions

ASSEMBLY OF GOVERNORS
Minnesota Executive to Call Meeting
to Discuss River Terminals.

to Discuss River terminals.
Governor Eberhart has announced
that he will call meeting shortly of
the governors of the Mississippi Val
ley states in st. Louis to put into eff
feet uniform working plan of pub
hcly owned river terminal improve
ments. Governor Eberhart is chair
man of the Governors River I'm
provement convention.
This announcement was made at
the convention of the Upper Missis-
sippi River Improvement association
at Saltwater, which went so far as
to propose an amendment to its by
laws to permit it to act on such .
proposition as the governor suggested.
The solution of the revival of the
waterway commerce problem, in the
opinion of President Thomas Wilkin-
son of Burlington, Ia, rests with the
interstate commerce commission and
the river municipalities.
Railroad dominance of the water
ways exists" he said, through their
ownership or control of almost 80 per
cent of available terminal sites. But
this control can be broken, and the
means for doing this is at hand.
Recent congressional acts place
the burden of this work on the inter
state commerce commission. It is UP
to that body to act, and act at once.

Tie Reiuvenation of Aunt MARY

Anne Warner when writing 1.-THE
Regeneration of Aunt Mary" must
have had the thought Laugh and the
world laughs with you, and her
efforts were tremendous success. for
never has there been comedy written
that has had such a triumph as this
great comedy.
It's simplicity appeals to every
one, as there is no thing impossible
about it and story that could happen
in any ones life. 1t is all so clean
and refined and the characters do not
have to resort to vulgar sayings or
actions to bring laughs that some
comedies have to resort to.
1t makes the old feel young again
after seeing "Aunt Mary" and sends
people away from the theatre feeling
younger and rested after having seen
such good play.

grants Arriving in August.
According to figures given out by
Fred D. Sherman, commissioner of
immigration, Minnesota again scored
high above all other states in receiv-
ing immigrants. Figures compiled by
the Minnesota Transfer Railway COM
pany show that during the month of
August that company handled 1873
cars of immigrant movables. Out of
this number Minnesota received six
-ty-eight cars. or more than one-third
of all the cars handled. The nearest
competitor was North Dakota, which
received thirty-one, Montana twenty
eight, Canada twenty-three, Wiscon-
sin ten and the balance of the states
fell below the latter number
There are many reasons why Min
nesota is receiving more than her
share of immigrants" said Mr.. Sher-
man. Probably the most important
one is the fact that during the year
of 1913 Minnesota harvested such
bumper crops, particularly of corn,
and it. bids fair to tarn the trick
again this year" /

Reilly Day at the Fair,

Bile Irishman and formidable candidate

upon Lexington on Wednesday and by

splendid impression on the many peo
pie he met upon the streets. and quite
captivated the large and representative
audience which heard him In master
full effort at the fair grounds where he
spoke for one hour. courteousy divid-
ing his allotted time with Treasurer
2. S. Stovall, who also spoke in the
interest of his candidacy. Wednesday
was Reilly day at the fair, and many
of the admirers of the distinguished
son of Adams county, many Of whom
had never seen their favorite and had
ridden far in from the four corners of
the county to hear the speech, thought
themselves fully repaid for their at
tendance. Judge Reilly is rapidly
gaining the reputation as the foremost
orator of the state; among many he is
called the Bryan of the Mississippi
platform. His most intense opponents
admit that he is formidable antago-
mist in debate and they now realize
that his forceful presentation, intense
sincerity, ready Irish humor, and alb
solute freedom from petty chickering's
and attacks upon the characters of any
one opposing him, are fast making in
roads into the constituency of Missis-

innovation in modern politics in Miss

dates will find that the people of this
state will show their appreciation for
