The lower decks of several ferries
were swept by waves and many per-
sons who escaped sea sickness knelt in

Among the tall buildings downtown

the statement SAYS. with alunite Kelp

large concerns have begun manufacture

The crippled state Of the phosphate
industry is attributed to the high price
Of sulphuric acid. much of which is
being used now in the manufacture Of
war munitions. The price has jumped
from So to SIS a ton Demand for the
acid is so heavy that abandoned plants
are being refitted for its manufacture

Washington, D. C. Jan. 3.-An-
nouncement is made today that the de-
partment of the interior has completed,
on the rim of the Grand Canyon, in
Arizona. a memorial to Mai. John Wes-
lay Powell. the intrepid pioneer and
celebrated scientist who first explored
the Grand Canyon. The memorial is
an altar decorated in indian imagery
and supporting a bronze tablet, resting
upon a pyramidal base of rough-hewn
stone Fifteen steps lead from the
west UP to the altar floor. from which
one may gaze into the very heart OF
the glowing mile-deep canyon.
The spot chosen for the memorial IS
Sentinel Point. a prOmontory south of
the railway station, which commands
a particularly fine view of the Granite
gorge and of the river. whose unknown
terrors Of whirlpool and cataract the
Powell party braved in small, open
boats. The structure. which is built
Of weathered limestone from the neigh
borhOod, has a rectangular base q by

NO NORTH-NO SOUTH.

There is no north or no south in
the state of Minnesota
There is no Northern Minnesota or
a Southern Minnesota.
There is just a Minnesota.
There is no room for imaginary
lines in this state and the following
is from an appeal for harmony with
in the state made by F. w. Murphy
of Wheaton, president of the All-Min-
nesota Development association, at
the Northern Minnesota Development
association meeting at Hibbing:
wipe out the line between North
ern Minnesota and the rest of the
state,' said President Murphy. II
am one of those men who believe that
Northern Minnesota is a part of the
state of Minnesota, and not the bor-
der of Canada. I wish to compli-
ment the Northern Minnesota Devel-
opment association on having done
some of the finest and most unselfish
development work in America.
"In common with most of you, I
am one of those men who do not be-
lieve in militarism. America needs
stimulation and physical preparedness
not for the battles of the world, as
those which are now going on in
Europe, but for the battles of life.
Develop the play spirit first. The
finest feature of our farmers clubs
in Minnesota, and we have 500 of
them, is the stimulation of the play
spirit. Do not play politics.; do not
play the city against the country or
the country against the city.

wide and he should face them in
that way. If the All-Minnesota as
sociation can be of service to North
,ern Minnesota in it's fight for Amend
ment No. 1 just tell us what you
want"
