Benefit Dance.

The Scenic City Band is in need Of
new uniforms and new music and to
cover the cost Of these necessary arti-
cles the organization will give dance
at the Armory, Friday evening, April
8. The music for the dancing will be
played by the Kinney Dream Orches-
ira, and the Band will give a short
program just before the dancing pro-
gram starts. Luncheon will be served
in the basement Of the Armory, the
wives and sisters of the band mem
bers assisting them in the service Of
this. The patronage Of the public is
solicited and the Band has right to
expect that the public will reciprocate
at this time for the generous way in
which the band has given its service
on many public occasions. The band
is one Of the real assets Of the city and
since the cause for which the Friday
evening benefit is being given is en-
tirely justifiable, a liberal patronage
is merited.

kellogg Opposed
by Ants" Crowd
JOSLYN, LUNDEEN AND MANA
HAN, WELL-KNOWN CHARAC-
TIERS PLACED IN FIELD.

And now comes "The Anti Machine
League of Minnesota with the sug-
gestion that there be a candidate
brought out against United States
Senator Frank B. kellogg, who is ex-
pected to be a candidate to succeed
himself.
This "anti-machine" modestly brings
forth three names for consideration,
namely C. c.. Joslyn, Minneapolis at
torney; Ernie Lundeen, former con-
gressman and James Manahan of st.
Paul, wellknown league luminary.
In a socalled Capitol News Letter"
this new league puts forth the claims
Of these three men. It emphasizes par
ticularly that Mr.. Joslyn "gained con-
siderable fame during the war in de-
Tending the ex-publisher Of the st.
Paul and Minneapolis American" Paul
F. Dehnel, who was charged with vio-
lating the espionage act. It is boast
ed that the case was won. 1t is not
stated that the United States govern
ment had interned Dehnel at Fort
Ogelthorpe for the period of the war.
1.-THE friends of Mr.. Lundeen also
make strong claims upon the United
States senatorship for the fighting
congressman" continues the letter.
The record Of Ernie" is set forth as
follows:
"While hundreds of weak minded
politicians were falling for the Wilson
treason to Americas independence,
like Paul Revere, Ernest Lundeen was
arousing the prairies of Minnesota, the
Dakotas, Iowa and Nebraska, with his
speeches against the deep-laid plots
that were designed to rob America Of
her national sovereignty"
"He aroused the prairies" in
speeches in New Ulm upon several oc-
casions, by eulogizing himself in mar
rating his political exploits to his au-
diences.
Machine Is "Anti."
In the last paragraph of the politi-
cal letter it is revealed just which
machine" this new league is "anti''
to.
.It is to be hoped, however, that in
the actual struggle between the old
British Tory machine candidate and
the true American forces inthe Re-
publican ranks a solid front may be
presented by uniting behind one man
and making his nomination and cleo
tion certainty New Ulm Journal.

Morgan Votes.

In a special election conducted at
the school house last Thursday even
ing on the question of changing school
district No. Sc from a common to an
Independent district the Independent
proposition carried by a close vote.
The result of the vote was "Yes" 160,
and "No" 154.
This was probably the largest vote
ever cast in this district which show
ed there was wide interest taken in
the election. There were few voters
who did not go to the polls while some
were out Of town but the vote was
probably about as near a complete
representation of the vote of a pre-
cinct as one could expect and yet the
ballots were cast in less than an hour.

Something of a Coincidence

1t Is something of coincidence that
J. A. Leonard with the Central Maine
Power Company in its, development
project here should receive from his
sister the following letter, written by
the late Andrew Morse, formerly OF
Skowhegan. The letter, it seems,
was received by W. B. Leonard, the
father OF the gentleman now temper
arIy located in fSkowhegan, seventy
one years ago and was found when
Mr.. Leonard's sister disposed of the
old home in New York. The unusual
feature OF the case is that now after
all these years the son of the receip-
lent of the letter should be living in
the same town down here in Maine
where Mr. Morse once was familiar
figure and we'll known citizen. His
home was in the brown house on Ce-
dar street which is of somewhat I'M
usual architecture and is the first on
the LEFT after turning off from East
Front street.
The letter reads:
Skowhegan,
November 80, 1850.
w. b. Leonard, Esq,
