For Failure to
With Giants
Clash With Club May lnjure
McGraw's Men in the
World Series

Charles L. Herzog, second baseman
and captain of the New York Giants
has been indefinitely suspended. In
explanation of this drastic action,
President Harry n. Hampstead yester-
day afternoon issued the following
signed statement:
player Herzog, without notify
Ing me, did not attempt to go on
the second Western trip. As soon
as I heard of this I held a consul
tation with the club physician, Man
ager McGraw and Herzog. He was
advised that the club needed his
services. even If he did not play,
and Manager McGraw advised him
that he need not play If he did not
feel equal to it.. He changed his
mind, went with the team, and vol
UNFAIRLY played
Tho day before going to Boston
on the last trip Herzog notified us
that he would not go with the team.
Manager McGraw told him that he
need not play II he did not feel
equal to 1t, but that he needed him
along with the team. Notwithstand-
ing which, Player Herzog left the
team. and nothing was left to do but
suspend him."
The suspension of Herzog at this
time came as a decided shock to the
supporters Of the Giants. All sympa-
thies in the matter aside, it is felt
that his loss to the prospective Ma
tional League champions in the world
series would be fatal TO New York's
chances. Herzog is doubly valuable
because of the spirit he instils in his
comrades. When he is himself the
club is % per cent more efficient
through his presence.

The Duluth rip-saw. [volume] (Duluth, Minn.) 1917-19??, 1917-07-07

CANOSIA, July 6.-(Special to
the Rip-saw).-Col. Fitzgerald
has had severe relapse from the
blind pig bite that he suffered
while fighting forest fires out
here some weeks ago. Under the
care Of skilled specialist and a
classy trained nurse, he was sup
posed to be close to perfect re-
covery.
Last week, however, he took a
turn for the worse and was hur-
ried out here in the care of three
trained nurses and two husky in
ternes. About midnight the virus
got to working in his system and
a series of commissions began that
frightened the nurses and internes
greatly. In fact both nurses and
internes were so disturbed and
frightened by Col. Fitzgerald's
condition that all hands ran out
into the yard, screaming loudly
with terror and fear of violence
at the hands Of the impetuous
fellow.
Some of the nearby neighbors
thought that a drunken row was
in progress somewhere but the
facts are as stated.

There is no need for King

COUNTY CLUB MEETS

The st. Louis County Club held
one of it's most successful meet
ings at Ely ON Wednesday, June
|27. About 100 delegates were in
attendance from different parts Of
the county.
TT. St. Louis County Club en-
braces all the commercial clubs
and farmers clubs of St. Louis
county. The recent meeting was
held under the auspices of the Ely
Commercial Club and Geo. L. Bro
zich, mayor of Ely and, also, vice.
president Of the St. Louis County
Club. Able assistance was given
by Thomas S. Written and G. II.
Good, representatives of the lum-
boring interests at Winton.
The business session was held at
the Ely city hall at $3.50 a. m.
L. B. Arnold, president of the
club presided and R. L. Giffen
acted as secretary The most i'm
portant matters discussed were
the necessity Of larger appropria-
tons from the county for carrying
on the Clubs work for the de-
velopment Of the northern part of
the state and the Importance of
having a creditable exhibit at the
next Minnesota state fair.
After the business meeting, the
delegates were taken to Winton
where boats conveyed them to Ka-
wishiwi Falls and served a fish
dinner by Messrs. Written and
Good. While there, they were
shown the operation of the dams
in sluicing logs.
The citizens of Ely turned out
heavily to welcome the delegates
and do the honors Of the occasion.
It is believed that excellent results
will follow the most interesting
and satisfactory session Of the
Club.

SCHOOL BOARD ELECTION
COMES TWO WEEKS HENCE
Retiring Members Probably Will Stand for Re-
election-C Competing Tickets Will Be Put
in Field by Critical Opponents

former superintendent R. E:
Denfeld resent his removal and
the employment of a man so lit
tie known in northwestern school
circles as present superintendent
Hoke.
Mr.. Denfeld's friends and
champions deny that he volun-
tarily resigned as superintend-
ent. They declare that the DOM
inant faction desired to get rid
of him and told him so. He had
a contract for another year but
told them he would resign it
paid his salary for that year. 1t
was so done but the public gen.
orally understood that was done
as high mark of appreciation
for 80 years of hard work in the
schools. Those on the inside de-
clare that there was no genuine
mark of appreciation about it
that the majority wanted his
head and he handed it to them
on that basis.
Under the circumstances, Mr..
Hokc did not step into the super
intendency under the most favor
able auspices.
The Smithville wrangle did not
help the popularity of the pres
ent board at all. While most
patrons of the schools admitted
that the position of the board
was technically correct, they also
felt that this was an exception to
the rule and that Smithville
should not have been so stiffly
and arbitrarily treated. Whether
it was change Of policy, real re-
pentance or merely petty poll
tics when the school board gave
up it's stiff position and granted
Smithville it's beloved school, the
general public has not yet found
out.
The foregoing is but a hasty,
incomplete and, perhaps, rather
faulty review of conditions as
they stand today with the school
board, but it is approximately
correct in most respects.
While the outlook today is for
a tame election, matters may
fairly boil before July 81 ar
rives.

SOME NEW. FEATURES
AT HOTEL ST. LOUIS
New Coffee Room and Grill, Sup
per Dansant in Rose Garden
and Manager Elliot's Person.
atty Pulling Powerfully.

The Hotel St. Louis utterly re-
fuses to waste any time or to do
any wailing over the Punishment
of old John Barleycorn. The
Hotel St. Louis is one of the old
est landmarks in the city and
one of the most popular places
at which to. refresh the inner
man or rest the hands and feet.
Where the bar stood for so
many years, a new coffee room
and grill will be opened as soon
as workmen can complete the
necessary changes. The public
may rest assured this will be
some little eating place.
OF course the beautiful and at
tractive Rose Garden will con-
tinue as in the past. One new
feature of the Rose Garden will
be the supper dansant, only $500
for both the supper and the
dance.
Many old patrons Of the Hotel
st. Louis who strayed to other
hotels during the frosty regime
of Hickey and the by-guess and
by-grab system Of Erwin, are
coming back to their old love.
The return of the wanderers,
many of whom belong in the iron
range towns, is greatly due to
the cordial, sincere and magnetic
personality of the present man.
ager, Mr.. H. L. Elliott. This
Master from Massachusetts, pulls
powerfully for the pioneer Hotel

VICTIM OF BLIND PIG
SUFFERS BAD RELAPSE
Quartet of Old Sports From Duluth and Drunken
Young Girls Awaken the Echoes
Around Pike Lake.

Sheriff Meining could do con-
siderable for his country if he
would send inspectors to give the
once over to a place not so very
far from Pike Lake that suffers
from blind pig and redlight
symptoms.
Only a few days ago, a quartet
of Duluth's most prominent
boulevardiers were out to this
place with bunch Of very young
girls. Several of them were sui
fering from too close a contact
with the favorite beverage of
Gambrinus, if not John Barley
corn, and some Of the capers cut
were not learned in Sunday
school. Among those who can tell
the sheriff full details are a
learned doctor, a couple of con-
firmed stage door Johnnies and
an amusement manager.
Pike Lake is surrounded by
many moral and circumspect sum-
mer residents. Some of the stunts
being pulled off out here in the
hinterland are disgusting to the
decent element and, also, serious
ly depreciating the value of
property.

TONS political agents do not
propose to sit up with any dead
ones.
Congressman Miller also causes
these wonderworkers fear and
trembling. Auditor Halden made
goo-goo eyes at Charles P. Craig
when he sought the congress
sional nomination and even sent
him a few boxes of candy and
bouquets Of flowers with the sen
timent, "Let us hope" etc., etc.
When Mr.. Miller came back
on his quarterly visit to his con-
stituents, he would not believe
that Konge Odin had been dis
loyal to him. But irrefutable
proof was given him.
Congressman Miller at once
strobe up to the Wolvin building
and served notice on the pow
ers-that-be in the noble pile that
if they stuck to Halden, they
could cut loose from him and lie
would from them. "Choose We
this day between u.s." he is re-
ported to have said.
The big Medicine Men in the
Wolvin building have not yet
chosen and they are sorely up a
stump as when and how to
choose. They even are between
the devil and the deep blue sea,
&C manv wire workers look at it.

many friends who would like to
see him seated at the desk once
occupied by Kettle Halvorson,
Charles A. Towne Page Morris,
j. Adam Bede and, at present,
Clarence B. Miller. He is far
from old in years and, if once
sent to congress, might be de-
pended upon to stay there many
terms.
Hon. Frank D. Adams, local
attorney for the U. S. Steel Cor
poration interests and the recog-
nized head Of that company's
political department, feels shiv-
ers Of dread run up and down
his well groomed spine every
time he hears Victor L. Powers
name mentioned. He even sus-
poets that Mr.. Power is one Ct
the hackers of the Rip-saw,
which is to laugh. Mr.. Adams,
therefore, ought tc take pleas
ure in perusal Of the following
expression by the Mankato Led
ger, viz:
"Atkinson, Of the Mesaba Ore,
claims he has sure winner for
governor in Victor L. Power,
president Of the village Of Hib-
bling. He possesses every qualifi-
cation which will make him just
the man for the common, not the
uncommon, people from which
we choose our hired men to rule
us. If we could take him on
trial, like they get married in
some countries, it might be a
good idea to give him a trial.
But we are inclined to think V.
L. P. is only a mere man, no bet
ter and no worse than men have
averaged from the time Of Moses
down to the present day. They
are all willing to take advantage
Of their opportunities, and, if the
opportunities are rot right, shape
them to suit their needs"

Hon. Mr.. Adams and Lieut..
Window are in. a position where
they easily can make some seri-
GUS political mistakes and where
such mistakes will go most seri-
ously with them.
Some of the Big Men in the
other departments Of the local
branch of the Z. S. Steel Coz
poration, do not think as highly
of county auditor Halden as do
Messrs. Adams and Window.
They would not shed many or
very large tears if the King of
the Courthouse were exiled to

Messrs. Adams and Window and

The latest 'grapevine" dis
patches state that Clarence B.
Miller, present congressman from
the great Eighth district, serious
ly contemplates standing for U.
S. senator in place Of Knute Mel
son. It is further stated that
Sen. Nelson looks on congressman
Miller almost as an own son and
that he firmly proposes to hand
over his senatorial shoes to the
energetic young congressman Il
he has power and influence to do
So. Sen. Nelson has taken great
liking to and interest in Mr..
Miller and it is no small honor, as
we'll as advantage, to become the
protege Of so powerful a polltl-
clan and statesman.
AS Mr.. Miller's star rises down
there in Washington, occasional
clouds float across it here at home.
Those who so cheerfully but in
discretely backed Charles P.
Craig against Mr.. Miller in the
last campaign, have not been
forgotten by Duluth's congress
man for their insurgency nor
have they forgotten their over
whelming defeat. Many a cheek
burns in chagrin and at least
some of those faces will never
again be turned in Mr.. Miller 5
direction.
There are a number in Duluth
and even other parts of the dis
trict who always rooted early,
late and at their best for Mr..
Miller but, today, are cold, dis.
gruntled and even hostile to him
because of his failure to shake
the plum tree in their favor or
some other reason. Several such
seem permanently off the reser-
walton and on the war path.
Seriously, quite an issue is
being made out Of the fact that
congressman Miller took a f.
male private secretary down to
Washington with him, instead Of
a virile, voting male. The last
Of that doing has not been heard.
=
There never will be any lack
of candidates for Mr.. Miller S
congressional seat. Duluth can
turn out more than a corporal S
guard at a moments notice.
With time, effort and energy, a
goodly squad can be brought
forth.
