certain pecuniary reasons. which the
administration is willing to adhere
to-
Criticism is directed at the presi-
dent because the committee lacked
information. The report states that
the responsibility of the senate in
this treaty is equal to the responsible
ty of the president" That it was
hampered by it being practically inn
possible to get information, is the
committee claim.

president that the treaty should be
ratified so that Germany can resume

try have Teen great and have in

The report claims that amendments
to the treaty would not mean 4 re-

claims in this line as "groundless."
In conclusion The report says:
when once we are caught in the

action is gone. The preservation
of American independence and the
mower to serve mankind demands
that the committee propose these

stated that the understanding was

the state fair where it competed with
pigs from nearly every county in

keen competition both here at the
county fair and at the state fair and
the fact that he won at both places
comes as real honor not only to the
boy but also to Blue Earth county as
well. Hog raisers especially in this
county ought to feel highly pleased
over this honor. Blue Earth county
is known as the county that captures
the state championship having won
these honors in the canning contest

One by one the great sluggers who have blazed a trail of hits across the baseball horizon for the last ten ol fifteen years are passing along.
 Filters like Hans Wagner and Sam Crawford, for instance, are few and far between these days, but there are still few of the veteran larrupers fac ing major league pitchers today, and one of the most picturesque of the lot Is Cactus Cravath.
 The "Old Cactus" has been playing ball actively for sixteen years, and the ravages of time have long since begun to show, for Cravath's legs today re- fuse to carry him around the gardens as they once did, and there are a few 'sprinkles of silver on his temples.
 CraVatI1 37 Years Old.
 But although Cravath is thirty-seven years of age-having celebrated his thirty-seventh birthday last March-he still ranks as a demon at the bat. Tax Ing a toe hold and swinging from the hip Is just as natural to Cravath as it ever was. And National League pitch CTS tell you that his eye has not been dimmed to any extent by the suns of 16 summers.
 Making four hits out of five times ak bat is feat often accomplished in
