who from innate. cussedness are OBJ

right, or render worthless by amend

was drafted in the interest of the
people of the entire state, and es-
pecially with the view of providing
better roads for the farmers to get
their produce to market. The law
is fair to every section of the state.
1t should be left practically I'M

The friends of the law are satisfied
that if it's provisions are faithfully
carried out benefcent results will
follow, and then there need be no
fear of it's repeal. Send men to the
legislature who are pledged to stand
by the new road law. Make the
good roads question the paramount
issue with legislative candidates.

s4NyINTEMPERATE RESOLUTION. ID

aNINTFMP EsAIE z 1sz -
At the mass convention held in
Cambridge on the 18th inst, to select
delegates to the Minneapolis con-
ference, a set Of Incorporate resolu-
.tions was adopted Of which the fol-
lowing is a sample:
Whereas, the government Of this
state has, since the death Of the be-
loved Governor Johnson, fallen into
the hands of a corrupt and con-
scienceless band of politicians who
have no regard for the rights Of. the
common people, who waste the
money Of the taxpayers, and who
have brought the state into disrepute
generally. 81
AS a matter of fact the great in
crease in the expense of the state
government commenced with Cover
nor Johnson's first term. 1t is also
true Chat Governor Eberhart has had
the support of the same interests that
dominated Governor Johnson's adj
ministration. Any one who is at all
familiar with the political history of
the state for the past ten years will
not dispute the truth of these asser-
tions .@.-. ;ezsE
The resolution is altogether too
sweeping. No one believes that the
state is in the hands ssof a corrupt
and constituencies band of politi-
cians," nor is the state in "disrepute
generally" ~: ~.
In attempting to create a public
sentiment unfavorable to Governor
Eberhart it should not be necessary
to defame the state. For, on the
whole, Minnesota is we'll governed
and stands high among the sister
hood of states. XXI .@

Resolutions Adopted Filming

Omaha, Nebr.. Nov. 11.-Minor base
bail organizations viii adhere strict
iy to the salary limit next year. Half
dozen OF the leagues and associa-
tions in attendance at the national
convention OF the minors today adopt
ed resolutions laying heavy fine upon
any manager breaking over the limit.
The matter win be brought before the
general conference during the present
session. Its passage is a foregone
conclusion.
The American Association has sue
ceeded in rounding up the smaller
fry TO such an extent that the con-
vention probably will make a ruling
that no organized team will be per-
mitted to build grounds within fve
miles OF an existing teams grounds.
This is to prevent the Western League
from placing a team in Kansas City,
Kans, and interfering with the as
sociation.
When the National Association of
Minor Leagues met today the opinion
was that the disturbing Federal
League problem would be settled at
the conference in Chicago tomorrow

Division OF the Federal teams among
the two major leagues and the Interna-
tional League was the plan which II was
believed would be agreed upon. But
while nothing absolutely definite was
known. the representatives OF the minors
are unanimous in standing by their reso-
luton OF Tuesday to support organized
baseball.
The big matter to come up was pro-
posed changes in the constitution to elm
mate friction between the minors and the
two major leagues.
The most interesting side action at the
convention is the application from George
Stone for a berth as umpire. Stone,
