DEAL!
High Point Holds Indigna=
ton Meeting

Saturday night at the Manufac-
turer's Club, citizens of the city met
to show their disapproval over
the threat of Chairman Boren, of
the County Commissioners, to re-
move the trucks and force from
the Archdale road, also largely from
! this end of the High Point Greens
boro road, leaving these roads only
partly finished to 90 to waste when
the whole work could be done in two
weeks.
At the meeting there was much
feeling displayed towards Mr.. Boren
and the speakers expressed them
selves in, emphatic terms of disgust
and resentment on account of the
unreasonable and uncalled proceed
ure.
That High Point has been treated
very badly for years on road and
other matters and has never been
given a square deal was the con.
sensus of opinion by those present,
and all agreed that the only remedy
for High Point was in securing Pied
mont county for which she has work
ed for in years gone by and that
they would help any party or any
faction who would help High Point
get her new county which grows in
favor more and more each year. not
only with the citizens here but with
the people in the surrounding terri
tory embraced in the proposed new
county.
The Review has for the past seven
years, fought for a new county and
first gave the new county its name
through the paper which was adopt
ed after dropping such proposed
names as Aycock, Center. ETC., ahd
the fight for the new county would
have been won long ago had it not
been for the Greensboro ring.
If the people of High Point are
wise they will never again accept
the soothing syrup offered once and
only to be followed by bitter
root. but from this moment on 60
obout the work of getting a new
county in a determined, yet sys-
tematic manner. A committee was
named to 60 before the commits
sioners and protest against such an
action.
Later-lhe Board told the High |
Point delegation that it would do its
best to keep a force of hands at work
on both roads until completed and
here's hoping that znothing else viii
come up to hinder the cause!

PRESIDENT WILSON
MAY VISIT THE FAIR
President to Be Invited to Ad.
dress Visitors at Minnesota
State Fair, Sept. 6 to II.

TT is possible that President Wilson
i may speak at the Minnesota State
Fair, September 6 to IL, as result Of
a plan just approved by the Fair
Board An effort will be made to OBJ.
tain a promise to visit the Fair on
Labor Day, September 6.
Unless international problems are
so serious at the time as to require
his constant attention at Washington
it is possible that the President may
come. 1t has been said that he is de-
sirous of taking tour of the country
this fall to familiarize himself with
public sentiment. A visit to the Min
nesota State Fair would enable him
to address at least 100000 persons, as
there is no question that that many
people would go to hear him.
The desire, to obtain the President
is the outcome of a plan to bring to
the Fair a representative of each Of
the National parties on separate days
of the week. A special committee Of
the Board is now working on the SUBJ
ject Men of the character of Elihu
Root, of New York; Senator Sherman,
of Ohio; Senator Borah, of Idaho; and
others of presidential timber are to
be invited IL the whole plan Is found
feasible

ABOUT The STATE
News Of Especial Interest to
Minnesota Readers.
BISHOP hebron WOUNDED
Head of Roman Catholic Diocese of
Winona Shot Twice by Priest
Supposed to Be Demented.

Bishop Patrick R. Heffron, in charge
of the diocese of Winona and former
rector of st. Paul seminary, was shot
twice by Father l.. M. Lesches, de-
mented priest, and seriously wounded.
The shooting took place in Bishop
Father Lesches entered and without
warning fired twice with a 22-caliber
revolver.
One bullet took effect in the right
side of the chest, penetrating the
lung. The other is a flesh wound in
the hip.
Father Lesches went to his room in
st. Mary's college and locked himself
in. He was arrested there soon after
by Sheriff Parr and Chief of Police
Huck, who forced an entrance at the
point of revolvers.
The would-be assassin is locked up
in the Winona county Jail.
While it is said there is no imme-
date danger the bishop is in such an
excitable condition that the best of
medical experts are attending him.
Complications also are feared.
AssaiIant in Nervous Condition.
Rev. Father Lesches is forty-six
years old, and is a dark haired, short
and stocky individual. He has been
a resident of the bishops residence for
fifteen days. He reached Winona in an
extremely nervous condition from st.
Paul. He last assisted in clerical du-
ties of a parish several years ago.
About 9 a. m. Bishop Heffron was
in his private chapel at st. Mary S
college. He had almost completed
saying mass when the assassin crept
from his room, carrying a loaded re-
yolver.
He was within ten feet of the
bishop when he fired The first bull
let missed it's mark, went through a
picture and lodged in the altar. The
next cut its way through the bishops
vestments and striking his leg landed
on the floor.
The bishop at that point, it is pre-
sumed, turned and the next bullet
penetrated his right lung. Burns on
his vestments indicate the prelate' s
movements during the tragic mo-
ments while he and Lesches were
alone in the little chapel.

Speaks at Boston,

Speaks at Boston.
Selfishness and obstinancy defeated
the efficiency ond economy bill in the
1915 session of the state legislature,
declared Governor w. S. Hammond
to the governors assembled in con-
ference at Boston. The governor
spoke on Efficiency and Economy in
State Affairs" He discussed the plan
proposed by the Eberhart commission
of thirty" and its fate in the 1915
legislative session.
at would seem that so salutary a
plan would receive not only the sup
port of the citizens of the state, but
would be heartily welcomed by the
members of the legislature them
selves" he said, "but there were
some obstacles.
There were, first of all, those fine
old delightful legislators who long
have been in the public service and
who look upon any change in method
as something akin to sacrilege.
Then there was the opposition of
those who believe that public Office
is opportunity-opportunity to help
ones self. They were the patriotic
spoilsmen who could not abide a civil
service law and could not heartily sup
port any plan that had for its pur-
pose the making Of public officer
