Minnesota Going Dry

Since April over $50 saloons have
been voted out of business in Mime

upon at special elections held nearly
every week in some counties of that
state. The state is now more than

kota will vote on state VIDE prohibi-

ion upon the matter believe that it
will carry. In fact, it begins to look
as if a gentleman. sub. will have no

early business and social life of north
Hand and south Faux county. Since
those days of struggle John Conway
is reported to have become a wealth
ly land owner and real estate dealer
in Texas. His brother Martin is
still IN the mercantile business at
Orient. The bride is the daughter
of former Congressman Picker and
wife, of Faul kton, both very prom

away several years ago, but the
widow still resides IN Fau!ktoH.

The New Secretary of State

News bureaus" are useful things
for the politicians and statesmen.
For instance after Bryan resigned,
the Presidents news bureau gave
out that Robert Lansing, an assistant
in the Secretary's Office, was made
acting secretary. because he was a
man of knowledge and experience In
international affairs. Very good.
No one could find fault with that.
A little later the news bureau sound
ed that delicately attuned harp
known as public opinion by giving
out a statement that he might be
appointed Secretary of State. AS
there was no big noise over this, the
appointment was finally made. It's
possible That no leading democrat
cared to apply for a place that Mr.
Bryan deserted. The bureau issued
notice of Lansing's appointment.
stating that 1t gave widespread
satisfaction~ln the national capital"
1t might as well have said ito the
Presidents other appointees." The
bureau further informs the world
hat Lansing is "a lifelong demo-
crat,'' that members of the cabinet
advised his selection, and Bryan him
self favored the promotion. Then
the news bureau naively remarks:
"A peculiar circumstance IN come
ton with the appointment Is the fact
that he had no political backing or
influenced" Just a clever bit of pol
ltics-which does not impair the
more important fact that the Presl-
dent has selected a competent man
who has been useful to several ad,
ministrations.

READ THE REVIEWS BIB LEAGUE BASEBALL DOPE
BIG LEAGUES OPEN
 SEASON OF 1915 IN
 EIGHT CITIES TODAY
Great Interest Attaches to An- nual Opening; Braves Start Watched; Review Will Print All Baseball News.

The Swan Song of Winter and of early spring has been sung. The seem. ingly endless days of snow. in the north and east. wind and rain. in the south. have terminated in a joyful day for those who are accustomed to live in the summer; that is. when summer Is synonomous with Baseball For to- day the American and National Leagues open their seasons.
 One hundred and fifty-four games will comprise the season for each league. The games should terminate October z, according to schedule. In the American league the opening games are as follows Chicago at St. Louis, Cleveland at Detroit. New York at Washington, and Boston at Phila- delphia. In the National league Phil adelphia opens at Boston, Brooklyn at New York, Pittsburg at Cincinnati and St. Louis at Chicago
 As is generally the case the opening of the previous years world champI- ons will be watched with the greatest of interest The Phillies will be the first to test the metal of the Braves on the latter's grounds.
 There are many. through fandom. who would still declare that the Braves are "aukes." Maybe they are. but more consistent "hukes" never entered a baseball diamond or took a pennant from under the noses of mil Non dollar infields or Harlem Giant unconquerables.
 The Braves are not scheduled to slump. It is always the improbable in baseball that is the most interest ing and should the pennant swing from one end of the string to the oth- CT, in each league, the game, from a financial standpoint would undoubt- edly be more profitable to the mag. mates.
 With Stallings, Evers, Gowdy. Mar anyille, Rudolph. Tyler and other vet erans. the Boston Nationals look ex- cellents bets at this point in the run ming. The Giants still look good. but with a start the Braves should be able to distance the New Yorks by midseason.
 In the American league the White SoX look exceptionally good and the questionable team is the Athletics. The Philadelphia Americans have been tempered with considerably. What will Lajoie do with the Athlet- ics? Can he fill Eddie Collins shoes for connie Mack? and many more are being asked.
 Along the same lines Collins debut with the White Sox will be watched with great deal of interest It is considered that Collins presence with the White SoX will add materially to Comiskey's chances of again landing heads up" at the termination or the season.
 The Review as is its usual custom. will print the baseball news each morning. Owing to a limitation of space and capacity only the salient features of each big league game. with the runs, hits and errors and batter ies, will be printed The standings of the American, National and Federal and Coast leagues, however, will be kept up to date and any information that any fan might desire, and which is to be had at the Review office. is theirs for the asking.
