Lee had ordered Mosby to attack
Hooker's line of communication with all
his energy. or course. Mosby did not
know that Lee contemplated that bat
tile: but he followed out orders with
such energy that, two nights before the
battle, he attacked a railroad train
loaded with thousands OF dollars
worth OF military supplies and guarded
by several hundred troops, within three
miles of Hooker's rear. scattered the
guard that he did not capture. and de-
stroyed the whole thing.
And the result-Mosby knew that he
was building for Lee. but he did not
realize how well until years after, he
read in the war records the dispatches
that Hooker had sent to washington
regarding that raid. So daring had II
been; so suddenly and vigorously had

julius Thorson, Democratic candi-
date for lieutenant governor, whose
home is at Benson, is attracting wide
attention by his sane and conserva-
tive campaign, which he is making
throughout the state, where he is
greeted with enthusiasm by his sup

He is going before the people on his
spotless business record of thirty
years. He is receiving the support of

Mr.. Thorson was born in Pope coun-

where he has since resided. He was
an intimate friend of the late Cover

bond of sympathy between the two
men, because both were born of poor

Thorson, if elected, will no doubt be
an excellent presiding officer of the
senate, because he is man of keen

JAMES A. PETERSON UNMAsks
SOCIALISM,.

The large and spacious Auditorium
was packed to an overflow last Thurs
day with citizens of Minneapolis who
heard James A. Peterson deliver one
of the best speeches that has been
heard in many years. For several
days Mr.. Peterson was advertised
throughout the city, as the man who
will unmask Socialism and he GER
tainly lived up to his promise. From
the very beginning of his talk he
showed the fallacy of an administra-
ton by the socialists, backing up his
assertions with documententary evil
dence, which some of the most astute
heclers stationed by the socialists in
the auditorium were unable to dis
pute.
Mr.. Peterson's remarks were con-
stantly greeted with applause by the
audience which gave expression to
it's desire for non-partison admin
istration. While several attempts
were made to confuse the speaker
with questions none were able to de-
liver a telling blow, for they were. an
swered quickly and to the point.
John M. Callahan, a prominent at
torney of Wisconsin was another able
speaker who followed Mr.. Peterson,
and told the audience about socialism
and what it did not accomplish in Mil
waukee and Wisconsin, contrary to
idea prevalent about the success of
socialism in Wisconsin.

Musical critics throughout the coun-

score of Naughty Marietta" at times
closely approaches the line of grand
opera, because of the dignity and
heavy harmony of the operas finales.
This, however, does not mean that
Naughty Marietta" lacks music in the
lighter vein, for the opera abounds in

The first paper on the Thirteenth
century, which the Bishops club is
studying this year, was given last
Tuesday night by Harry L. Ryan, who
gave survey of the constitutional de-
velopment which took place in Eng
land in that period. Violin numbers
by Miss Lillian Laskey and vocal Sc
lections by Miss Helen Carroll, with
accomplishments by Miss Mae Geary
and Miss leila Burrell, constituted
the musical program. Miss Elizabeth
Holley was the leader and Mrs. ]. f.
Killorin was the hostess.
Mrs. c. F. Haley, who had the cur
rent events topics, read the copy of a
letter which was written March 80,
1890, by George Washington in reply
to an address by the Catholics of the
country, who congratulated him on
his being elected unanimously. The
original letter was recently stolen or
lost from the archives of the Balti-
more cathedral, as was discovered
when the collection was being cata-
logued. President Washingtons cor
dial reply, in which he thanked the
Catholics for their loyalty during the
Revolution, did much to promote re-
ligious liberation.
Mr.. Ryan's Review.
Mr.. Ryan's review of the great po-
litical changes of the Thirteenth cen
fury was in part as follows:
"Your author, DR.. James j. Walsh,
has styled the Thirteenth the great
est of centuries. While do not ex-
actly agree with him in this respect,
feel that the Thirteenth century is
one of the most important periods in
the history of the world. 1t embraces
some of the most formative influences
the world has ever known and fur
nishes the foundation for many fun
damental principles of government. In
strictness the social history of the
Thirteenth century cannot be abso-
lutely separable from the history of
it's political events, it's legal and ad-
ministrative institutions and it's in
ternal fortunes. The social revolution
of the Thirteenth century resulted in
a fuller freedom because of the strife
incident to it.
! Coming now to the history of Eng.
land during the Thirteenth century
we find it chiefly characterized by the
great constitutional development TAX
ing place, which not only laid the
foundation for strong central gov
eminent in the English nation, but es
tablished lasting basis for the liber
ties and rights which we now enjoy
The institutions developed by the Eng
lish people during this period were
the result of the gradual development
of the legal rights of the common peo
pie, fastened greatly by the decay OF
the feudal system.
"The dominant feature of the Thir
teenth century is that 1t was period
during which great influences we're al
work in every sphere of human activ
ity. The great fundamental principles
of government were developing so that
in later centuries men might enjoy
the high privilege of liberty under the
law.
