The Appeal

THE APPEAL KEEPS IN FRONT BECAUSE: 1-It aims to publish all the news possible. 2-It does so impartially, wasting no words. 3-Its correspondents are able and energetic. VOL. 27. NO. 28. UNCLE SAM'S METHODS OF COMMUNICA UNCLE SA METHOD COMMUN UNCLE SAM'S SECRET METHODS OF COMMUNICATION ESIDENTS of foreign countries who visit the United States almost invariably marvel at the open and above-board manner in which our government does business—the extent, for instance, to which the public is taken into the confidence of the republic's highest officials, through the medium of the newspapers and public addresses. And the officer, for such a state of things is assured of sharp contrast to the practices that the many foreign countries, where it seems to be the policy of high officials. tell the people anything until they have to or until there is grave danger that they will learn from some other source and where letters and telegrams are in a manne unhear of in this land of the free. tell the people anything until there is grave danger to it from some other source and telegrams are censored in a in this land of the free.

There is need, too, for dependable methods of secret communication for it would doubtless surprise the average reader could he know how many people there are who are constantly trying to find out things Uncle Sam does not wish to disclose or beast are trying to find them out before he is ready to make announcements on the subject. When mention is made of eavesdroppers of this kind one naturally thinks of the secret agents which e is supposed to maintain in the purpose of keeping tab moves and of those even more so who though not in the government are always snook to find out some of the will foreign country to which the ties of one kind or another.

However, to comprise only a portion of the busy bodies upon whom a watch must be kept. Even more dangerous, in a way, are the agents of speculators and Wall street gamblers who are constantly seeking advance information as to court decisions and government reports, etc. Our readers may remember that a few years ago there was a big scandal when it was discovered that speculators on the cotton and grain market had corrupted a government official who allowed them to secure advance money to the government crop reports that have, whenever ever, an important influence upon prices in all the products and cotton exchanges in the land. Similarly there were camped in Washington during the past winter a number of scouts for the speculators any one of whom would probably have paid many thousands of dollars for advance information as to the findings of the United States Supreme court in the cases of the tobacco combine and other trusts. But, after all, the gravest responsibilities that are imposed upon Uclem Sam's secret methods of communication come in connection with international complications of any kind—especially in the event of a crisis that threatens war. One of the best illustrations of record of how close-mouthed Uclem Sam can on occasion was given when a large portion of the regular army was moved to the front lines. That movement required much planning and preparation the part of the president and the high officials of the army and navy and yet so quietly did the preparations go forward that one-third of our standing army was hurrying to the Rio Grande ere the public had a hint what was happening. This performance proved that the White house is, as it indeed ought to be, the nerve center of a very effective system for secret communication. The president has his own special telegraph and telephone operators stationed at the executive offices, but for long distance work they must be dependent upon the regular commercial lines, and for all that a direct line to anywhere can be set aside for the exclusive use of the White house almost at a moment's notice; there is, of course, a number ofiders somewhere along the line might overhear the messages that are clicked over it. To get around them, the highly house telegraphers send most of the highly confidential messages in a secret code or cipher—which means that a message is translated into a jumble of words that would have no meaning whatever to the average individual, but which stand for clearly intelligible expressions to a person R OR AT THE WHITE HOUSE MESSAGE USE OF THE DICTAGRAPH FOR SECRET COMMUNICATION THE APPEAL. AM'S SECRET WIS OF NICATION STENOGRAPHER TAKING DICTATION FROM THE DICTAGRAPH A BATTLESHIP'S WIRELESS OPERATOR AND HIS OFFICE who has the "key" to the disguise. In case it is desirable the president could use the regular codes of the United States army or navy, but he has a special private code of his own, which is preserved the most secret of all the vehicles of communication used by the government. Now whereas outsiders might tap in on long-distance telegraph wires carrying the president's messages (although the code or cipher would baffle them at this point) the chief magistrate has one medium for absolutely secret communication. This is an exclusive telephone system that centers at an exclusive office, and whereas its radius does not extend beyond its limits of the national capital it is of immense service in keeping the nation's rules in close touch with every government official. This special system has no "hello girl" and by means of it the president may, upon taking his place in his specially constructed sound-proof telephone booth, feel free to speak his mind to any member of his cabinet or any high official of the army or navy in absolute surety that no third person has had an inkling of what he has said. Similarly the president can command at the other end of Pennsylvania avenue and can hold a confidential confab with any senator or representative without anybody being the wiser as to what has passed between them. Uncle Sam's secret methods of communication have been improved within the past few years through the introduction of several important new inventions. One of these is the dictograph, which has been halled as the successor of the telephone and which consists of a master station in the private office of an official and a sub-station installed in a separate room. The advantage of this invention is found in the fact that the dictograph will transmit all conversation spoken in an ordinary tone in the room in which the instrument is located instead of it being necessary for the best results to speak directly into a transmitter as in a telephone. Furthermore the receiving terminal is placed in the room in which as it stands on a desk would never answer a visitor's suspicions as to its character. These qualifications give a hint as to the manner in which it has proven valuable to certain government officials, as for instance the officials of the secret service. A criminal supposedly talking in private may find that not only has his confession been overheard, but that it has been taken down word for word by a stenographer seated at her desk in a room some distance away. Another ingenious newcomer among the secret missive bearers is the invention known as the ST. PAUL AND MINNEAPOLIS, MINN., SATURDAY, JULY 15, 1911. telautograph, which transmits handwriting via electrical wires to any reasonable distance, reproducing it line by line just as it is written at the point of origin. This device is being employed at United States forts and at other seats of governmental activity. It has many advantages that might not at first occur to the reader. For instance, its ability to reproduce handwriting and autograph signatures supplies a safeguard against tampering with military orders. If a battery commander sees an order written out before his eyes in the well-known handwriting of the officer in command of the artillery district wherein he is located he could not have any misgivings as to whether or not he has received bona fide instructions from headquarters. One of the chief aims of Uncle Sam's experts just now is to devise means for insuring the secrecy of messages transmitted by wireless telegraph. Wireless telegraphy and its kindred invention, wireless telephony, have proven one of the greatest boons of the age, but, from the standpoint of our public officials, and particularly our army and navy officers, their value will be tremendously enhanced if a way can be found to transmit messages with surety that they will reach nobody save the individual for whom they are intended. Under present conditions many military and naval wireless messages are "picked up" by private operators and of course this would not do at all in time of war. It is believed, however, that a solution will be provided when there is completed the trio of monster wireless towers, the most recent to be constructed by the navy department. In this way, the equipment at the new station will be capable of transmitting wireless messages a distance of 3,000 miles or more and it is believed that it will be so powerful that it will be readily practicable to send and receive messages that cannot be filched by any wireless station of less capacity.

A tentative offer was made to the Egyptian government of a tract of land situated within an isosceles triangle, one side extending from the east of the Suez canal to Akabah, the other going from west of Gaza to Akabah, the coast forming the base. It was rejected. Now once again Jewish eyes have been turned to this district.

Defective Page DANGER IN THE GUP Efforts to Abolish the Common Drinking Vessel. Illinois Follows Kansas in Legislation Effecting Use of the Public Cup— A Safety Drinking Fountain. Springfield, Ill.—Illinois has fol- lowed Kansas in legislation to effect the abolition of the common drinking cup. Death lurks in it. Tuberculosis, diphtheria and other deadly iseases are distributed by it. There is no question whatever about these racts, which may be said briefly to summarize the results of a the investigation recently made by the board of health of the state of Kansas. Kansas led the way in a movement to do away with the common drinking glass. Such receptacles, which carry all sorts of infection from mouth to mouth, are not to be in future allowed in railroad trains, railroad stations and other public places in that state. Their use in the public schools is no longer to be permitted. And now Illinois has been followed with similar regulations. It is expected that before long this movement will become nation-wide. One might say that the problem is satisfactorily solved by the paper cups for individual use which are sold by slot machines in many public places nowadays. All one has to do is to drop a cent into the slot, and out pops a beautifully-made tumbler of paraffin together and stiff enough to hold liquid. But when one comes to think about it, one perceives that such cups as those are of small practical use for every day folk; they are a luxury for the rich. Only the well-to-do can afford to pay a penny for a drink of water. The problem of the drinking cup in its relation to health is much more difficult and much more important than most of us are aware of. Recent investigations of the subject by the state board of health and by many bacteriological experts elsewhere have A Safety Drinking Fountain. shown that the common tumbler or other receptacle used for such purposes is a frequent and dangerous source of infection. To employ such a vessel on a train, at a street fountain or elsewhere is to take a serious risk. A drinking cup which had been used for several months without washing in a high school was lined with a brownish deposit which when viewed under the microscope was seen to be composed largely of particles of mud, with thousands of bits of dead skin and millions of bacteria. When a small quantity of this sediment was injected under the skin of a healthy guinea pig the animal died in 48 hours, the postmortem examination revealed that death was due to blooming. A second guinea pig under similar circumstances, developed tuberculosis; and inquiry proved that several of the pupils in the high school were afflicted with the dread malady. The rim of another drinking cup used in a school bore no fewer than 5,000,000 germs, while a vastly greater number lingered deeper in the vessel where saliva had dripped down. The conclusions drawn from all observations are to the effect that the common drinking vessel is one of the most fruity sources of the spread of infectious diseases. Such mouth-to-mouth infection, furthermore, is especially dangerous because of the moist pass from person to person. Perilous about the edge of the familiar tin dip—the kind that uses to hang alongside the drinking place at school, and which still hangs near the kitchen pump in many a farmhouse. The mouth of every human being is a breeding place for multidutious microbes, and these are of many forms and species. Some of them are rod-shaped; others are spherical; yet others arrange themselves in chains, and on so through a considerable diversity of shapes. Even the biggest of them are so small as to be seen only with the aid of a high-power microscope.

New York.—Of the few descendants who remain of the royal house of Hawaii there are at least two who are residents of this country. These are Miss Anna Douglass Graham, of New York, and her mother, who is the wife of the famous Dutch painter, Hubert Vos. Mrs. Vos before her first marriage to Mr. Graham was the Princess Kailishani. Miss Graham is one of the most beautiful young ladies in the metropolis and was one of the six bridesmaids of Vivien Gould at her recent marriage to Lord Decies. It is now reported that she is to become the Miss Anna Douglass Graham. bride of Jay Gould, the youngest son of George Gould. The former Queen of Hawaii, Liliokalani, whose name is rarely mentioned now in the newspapers, is living at Honolulu, where she still keeps a little court. For years she made periodical visits to Washington to press her claims against the government for the value of the old crown lands which formerly were invested in her and which now form the public domain. But Washington would not be convinced that she had any rights in this particular and apparently she has given up the fight and will probably never again leave her island home. The native Hawaiians are still deeply attached to their former queen. On her birthday all Hawaii flocks to the Queen's home in Washington place and offers her order in that pretty home in the old, old way, with the alfs, or nobles, wearing the shuulas about their shoulders and the kuhls standing solemnly in the corner in token of royal dignity. Liliokalani was dethroned in the revolution of 1893, when a provisional government was declared, with Sawan B. Dole at its president. Anexation to the United States was then sought, but upon the refusal of President Cleveland to sanction it the republic of Hawaii was proclaimed an independent state in 1894. In 1898 during the administration of President McKinley Hawaii was annexed to the United States. HOUSE BUILT IN A TREE TOP Two Ravenswood, Ill., Boys Construct a Comfortable Domicile in a Big Willow.

Discoveries Waterfall on River Mac Kail and French Authorities in Country Name Gatract Les Chutes MacLeod. London.—Miss Olive MacLeod, who left England in August last to visit the grave of her fiance, Llewoy Boyd Alexander, who was murdered by natives in central Africa, recently arrived in England. She was met by her father, Sir Reginald MacLeod, when she landed, and left for Paddington. Thence she proceeded by motor car to her beautiful home, Vintners, near Maidstone. Altogether the African journey consisted of 2,700 miles, mostly on foot or horseback. P. A. Talbot, district commissioner of Niagara, and Mrs. Talbot, accompanied her during the whole of the journey, and were responsible for the arrangements. Among the many trophies that Miss MacLeod brought home were two baby lions, which were presented to her in French Niagara. Miss MacLeod was very eager to take them home with her, but, being now six months old, they were thought to be rather dangerous pets for Maidstone, and have been sent to the zoo. During the journey Miss MacLeod traversed land across which no white woman had ever been before. At times the party included as many as 10 natives, these being required to carry stores and food. Miss MacLeod, with her companions, on arriving at the west coast of Africa, traveled up the Niger as far as Miss Olive MacLeod. she could go in the steamer and canoes. After going through southern and northern Nigeria the expedition reached French Mbangi in October, and the falls of the Mao Kali were located. According to the testimony of French officers and natives, these falls had never been seen before, and in honor of "the brave English girl" go to visit her sweetheart's grave, the French authorities asked for permission to name the falls "Les Chutes MacLeod." Pushing on into the heart of Africa, Miss MacLeod proceeded through the lakes, lakes, and eventually reached the Shad down which she traveled to Lake Chad. Here the picture rocks of Hadjel-Hamis were inspected, which are held in veneration for miles around. The highest peak of these rocks was climbed by Miss MacLeod and her companions—a feat which the natives declared to be impossible. Lake Chad was then crossed in kotoko canoes. This journey took eight days, five of which were spent out of sight of land. Near Lake Chad the grave of Lieut. Boyd Alexander was visited—the pathetic object of Miss MacLeod's long journey. Discussing her travels at Plymouth, Miss MacLeod said that the greater part of the route chosen was unknown to Britishers. On arriving at Lagos she said she was surprised to hear rumors that "Miss MacLeod" had been massecared and eaten by cannibals! Lucky the Snake Crawl Cambridge, Mass.—The serpent is even wiser than the woman tells us, according to Professor Maynard, the noted educator here. In a rather starting statement, the professor declares that as a result of a study of snakes he is convinced that had they been able to develop hands and feet instead of being obliged to crawl, their brains would have enabled them to dominate the world. In that event, he asserts man would probably have remained in a primitive, savage state, or possibly even as an ape. HAVE YOU READ THE APPEAL? PUBLISHED WEEKLY BY ADAMS BROS.

"That lynching down in Milam county, Texas, a few days ago turns out to have been about the most inexcusable, outrageous and damnable piece of mob work in all the history of such crimes. "In the first place, the victim was a 12-year-old boy, very small for his age. He was not accused of the 'one crime.' He was not a Negro."—Chicago Journal. We can not agree with the Journal in its characterization of the lynching of the 12-year-old boy as the worst piece of work ever done by Texas. About three years ago a mob of Texans lynched an Afro-American woman for a crime alleged to have been committed by her brother. To THE AP-PEAL that seems to be a more hellish mob murder than the one referred to. It is not a crime but a fashionable pastime, to lynch black folks in Texas. It's the worst crime possible, down south, to be born black.

Ex-Governor James K. Vardaman of Mississippi has been stumping the state in the interest of his candidacy for the United States senate and has developed more bitterness and rancor than any previous political contest in the history of the state. One hundred and sixty oxen, harnessed in eighty spans, drew an oxcart upon which James K. Vardaman rode through the streets of Meridian in the most spectacular parade that city has ever seen. Five brass bands, blaring independently of each other, could scarcely be heard by the cheering thousands. As a bodyguard, 100 prominent citizens rode horseback. Then came the Vardaman "car." The great string of animals, all white, carried white streamers bearing the legend, "Vote for the white chief and uphold the white South." On the back of each ox was a man shrouded in white. At each animal's head walked a white-clad torch bearer. A sort of miniature throne was erected in the ox wagon, and upon this Vardaman sat, in immaculate linen and carrying a big white hat, which he waved continually. The most barbaric spectacle of all was the crowd which swarmed after. Men threw away hats, canes and umbrellas, and fought each other with fists to step up and place hands upon the wagon. Women threw bouquets of handsome flowers from galleries. Persons plunged madly, and several persons sustained slight injuries. It is said that the spectacle has not had a duplicate in the history of the South. ADVOCATES RACE FUSICN. Mr. G. C.

Greener, Mr. Greener was the first of his race to graduate from Harvard. He now resides in Chicago. a Rhodes scholar and has been making a study of anthropology during his stay in England. He intends to give his entire attention heresheet to the race question in the South, and for the purpose of carrying on his investigations in this country in a thoroughly scientific manner he will apply to the Carnegie Institute for assistance. Mr. Hucaby's endeavor will be the first organized attempt to give to the world the results of the fusion of the white and black people of the South. This subject has been a very delicate one with the people south of Mason and Dixon's line, who have bitterly opposed any fusion of the races since the Civil war, despite the fact that it was common in slavery days. Mr. Hucaby is a typical Southerner in appearance, tall and lanky with black hair and delicate, thin, pale features. Having had the broadening effects of study and travel to help him in his opinions on this subject, he believes that the fusion of the white and the black people of the South would not be as undesirable as many of his fellow Southerners declare. "YELLOW MEN JUDGE WHITE." The above headline was used in a number of American newspapers in the report of the trial of the American seamen tried and convicted of murder by a Japanese court. The evident intent was to arouse race hostility. If white judges in America can sit in judgment on Japanese charged with crime it is right that Japanese judges should try Americans charged with crime in Japan. The South has a large delegation at the Christian Endeavorers' convention at Atlantic City, but there is no proof that the Southern people are endeavoring to lead the Christian life. The average Southerner works overtime devising plans to degrade his brother black. When Taft was in Indiana he met both factions of Republicans and received assurances that everybody in the state who amounted to anything politically was with him and he naturally feels pretty well. Councilman West of Baltimore, author of the segregation law of that city, is involved in two suits for damages amounting to $4,000 on allegations of fraud.

Because Henry Watterson, the veteran Kentucky editor had raised the point that the visit to Kentucky of the President on September 26 would be regarded as a political move by Kentuckians, Mr. Taft today withdrew his acceptance of the invitation to dedicate the Lincoln Memorial Farm near Hodginsville. The President will go after the election. Repression of Slave Trade. The United States contributes one hundred dollars per year as its share of the expenses of keeping up at Brussels an institution known as the international bureau for the repression of the African slave trade. There are hundreds of other ways in which the government finds good use for money that the citizens never hear about. Invites all to Enter Golden Gate. Shouting that heaven loomed before his eyes and inviting all to enter the Golden Gates of St. Peter with him, Peter Dyson, an Afro-American twenty-seven years old, became insane in St. Cyprian's Catholic church Sunday night. The Pope Asks About President On the occasion of a private audience, which he gave Monday to James Hamilton Lewis of Chicago the Pope spoke of American affairs and asked particularly regarding President Taft's health. He said that he remembered the kindly manner of Mr. Taft when he was there in connection with Phillippe affairs. Officers Elected at Ivy City. The Ivy Citizen's Association has elected the following officers: Rev George W. Brent, president; Adolphus Dameron, vice president; Rev Charles H. Toulson, treasurer; Jessie M. Jackson, secretary; John Holmes, chap lain; Chatman Cofield, sergeant-at arms. Closing Exercises Held.

Beauty School Closes. Rev. I. N. Ross was the principal speaker at the closing exercises of the Southern Beauty Culture School, at True Reformer's Hall, Friday evening. Fairbanks Lauds Táft. "If Taft succeeds in winning his campaign for universal peace, he will win with it a place among the foremost statesmen of the world. It will be the crowning glory of his achievements," declared former Vice-President C. W. Fairbanks, before the Christian Endeavors at Atlantic City. New School Buildings. The District Government has in process of construction a number of new school buildings for Afro-Americans. Normal School No. 2, at Georgia avenue and Howard place, is expected to cost in the neighborhood of $200,000. Other new school buildings are Alexander Crummel school, Ivy City; Cardoza Manual Training School, Flint and I estimate southwest; Burr Hill School, and a school in the Military road. Armstrong Manuel Training School will have additions built. A central heating plant is being installed in the Armstrong building. Bad News for Cats. The cats of the District are in trouble again. Dr. H. F. Sawtelle, acting District health officer, plans to ask Congress to pass legislation limit ing the number of cats which one household may own, support and fondle. Dr. Sawtele thinks one cat is enough for one family. U. S. Cabinet Put on Ice The private office of President Taft is cooled by breezes from a ton of ice stored beneath it. The refrigerating apparatus keeps the thermometer at the same degrees. During the hot spell the Cabinet meetings have been held there. Excursion Boat Burned. The charred hulk of the steamer River Queen, the spectacular destruction of which by fire Saturday night drew large throngs to the river front, is to be wrecked. She was in the excursion business and carried Afro-Americans to Washington Park down the Potomac. Must Ride on Cars. Government officials everywhere, when traveling at public expense, must ride on trolley cars and ombuses and shun expensive taxicabs, unless circumstances warrant the extra expense. A government official recently sent in a bill for $3.40 taxicab hire. In the interest of economy Comptroller Tracewell ruled that he be allowed 15 cents. Bad Month Except For Brides. A report given out by the Department of Agriculture today states that June was decided unfavorable for growing crops in most parts of the United States. The crop of June brides in the District was larger than usual. Senate Flings Aside Dignity Dignity is giving way to comfort in that august body, the United States Senate, in these days of 100-degree temperature. Besides an electric fan that cools Vice President Sherman, there are many other comfort-giving schemes, such as negligee shirts, no vests, and featherweight coats. President Taft Now a Rough Rider. President Taft has become a Rough Rider. He has accepted honorary membership in the Grand Camp of the Rough Riders of California. He will not take much part in the exercises of the Rough Riders, preferring an automobile. It is the consensus of opinion that the Republicans in the state convention soon to be held in Kentucky will go on record in favor of the re-election of President Taft. President Taft, by an order transmitted to the Land Office, has opened up two enormous tracts of public lands, one within the Fort Berthold Indian reservation, containing 150,000 acres, in the two Dakota, and one of 129,000 acres in southeastern Idaho. Entries for the Dakota lands will commence on August 14, in North Dakota, and on October 2, in South Dakota. Both President Taft and Secretary Wilson of the Department of Agriculture are pleased with the work of the pure food establishment. This bureau has brought about great improvement in the supply of pure food and Gross adulterations have been stopped. Adulterated and misbranded foods to the value of $60,000 were destroyed last year. To simplify and modernize the records of the Government a new system of accounting evolved by the President's economy commission, was installed in all executive departments July 1. The central idea is uniformity. Lincoln Memorial Plan Ready Soon. An explanation of the delay of the Fine Arts Commission reporting on the $2,000,000 memorial to Abraham Lincoln, authorized by Congress, was made in a letter given out at the White House today. D. H. Burnham, chairman of the commission, wrote to President Taft in reply to a complaint by Senator Cullom regarding the delay. Burnham's explanation follows: "The Lincoln monument is the most important thing the Government has submitted to us. It seemed unwise to report until everybody had a chance to suggest a site. The time having passed two months ago, we went to work on the paper. A tentative draft of it was submitted to the mission and sent back to the committee for revision and at our next meeting it will be adopted, as there is little left to do on it. We hope to meet in two weeks." Will Prosecute Alleged Looters. Will Prosecute Niged Looters. W. R. Griffin, chief of the Washington division of the True Reformers, is in Richmond to consult with the board of directors of which he is a member, to take steps to prosecute Louis B. Phillips, a clerk in the bank, and to procure Louis B. Cashiers, Louis B. Phillips, who was arrested on Tuesday, is charged with negotiating three worthless checks, for a total value of $70, while Hill, if captured, will answer to the charge of theft of $25,000. Phillips is said to have forged the names of W. P. Burrill and A. W. Holmes, officers of the organization, while Hill, who disappeared from Richmond March 24, is said to have made false entries in the bank's books. A woman clerk, said to have assisted Hill in his thefts, has been arrested and is now awaiting trial. A reward of $500 has been offered for Hill. Navy Yards Open to Togo. The Japanese naval hero, Admiral Togo, will have no difficulty in viewing everything he cares to see in the New York Navy Yard, or indeed in any other part of the naval establishment. Although a regulation of long standing prohibits the exhibitions to be held in the navy yard, construction in the navy yards, this will be suspended by the Navy Department for the benefit of Admiral Togo. Note Not Ultimatum. The joint note presented to the Haitian government by the United States, Great Britain, France, Germany, and Italy, requesting an adjustment of the claims of their citizens is not an ultimatum, it is declared at the State Department, but a friendly request to conclude the long-standing question by diplomacy or arbitration. The Haitian government itself, it is added, suggested this procedure in order to conclude the matter as speedily as possible. Defective Page Must Ride on Cars. Knowles Building. Boys' Hall.

TWO OPEN LETTERS. Requesting the Celebration of the Twenty-fifth Anniversary of J. Q. Adams' Editorship of the Appeal. St. Paul, Minn., April 24, 1911. Mr. J. Q. Adams, City My Dear Mr. Adams: As I had the honor, if such it may be denominated, of being the first to be admitted to the M.A. school as the "Western Appeal," I have watched its course with, perhaps, more interest than that generally evinced by others. Having been so closely connected with its early history, and knowing something of the hardships that surrounded it then, and doubtless do still, I can more fully appreciate the efforts you have put forth in maintaining it and which it has always stood, than can those who are not familiar with the business side of it. Since the advent of THE APPEAL there have been a number of publications started in this state under various auspices that passed from the University to the existence, but THE APPEAL is still doing business at the old stand. Now, Mr. Editor, as the paper has been in existence since June 1885, and you became associated with it in 1886, this year is the twenty-fifth year of your connection with it as editor and manager, and I believe you have made some special consideration at the hands of the people whom you have served so long and well. Last year, through your efforts, the twenty-fifth anniversary of the birth of the paper was celebrated in a most fitting manner, and the entertainment and souvenir edition of the paper never been equaled in Minnesota nor elsewhere, for that matter. Since it was your able management that maintained the paper, some honor and credit is due you; and, I am one who delights "to do honor unto those to whom honor is given," and I am honored to St. Paul, and throughout the state, will be glad to join in celebrating your twenty-fifth anniversary as editor of THE APPEAL. Your able management of the Quarter-Centennial Celebration of THE APPEAL last year, was seen and recognized by every one who was involved in the take charge of the matter as you did then. I am confident that the public will feel satisfied that everything Defective Page that can be done will be done to make the occasion a grand success, and that with me the people will willingly say: "Just you go ahead and we'll hold your coat." Very truly yours, F. D. Parker. Minneapolis, Minn., April 25, 1911. J. Q. Adams, Esq. St. Paul, Minn., Mr. Editor: Since the Quarto-Centennial Celebration of last September, commemorating the twenty-fifth anniversary of an unprecedented ACCENEAL, was such an unprecedented point of view; and, is remembered, with pleasure, by every one who had the good fortune to be present on that, never-to-be-forgotten, occasion, it has occurred to me that another such an affair would be bailed with delight by all who were present, as by those who, for some reason as another, were deprived of that blessed privilege; and who would not miss the opportunity if it was again offered to them. I also recall the fact that the twenty-fifth anniversary of your association with THE APPEAL occurs this year; and I feel that this is an important time for being celebrated as the birth of the organization more so. For, it undoubtedly is owing entirely to your managerial ability and indefatigable labors that THE APPEAL has been enabled to withstand the storms that have wrecked many like ventures upon the coast of adventure. And it does seem that you have been fitting and proper for the people of the Twin Cities to show a just recognition of the herculean task you have accomplished in maintaining an organ in their interest for a quarter of a century, by tendering you a nominal payment of the twenty-fifth anniversary of your organization, the paper, or, on such other date that in your judgment is more convenient or suitable. I would therefore suggest, if it meets your approval—as I know it will, the patrons of THE APPEAL—that you proceed to carry a great idea along the lines employed in the Quarto-Centennial Celebration of THE APPEAL last year. I have no especial suggestions to make, as the success of last year's affair, as well as many other social functions that have been under your control testify to your exceptionable ability to manage them "to a queen's taste," therefore. I feel sure you will carry this to a successful issue if left to follow the bent of your own inclination. I am satisfied that I voice the sentiments of the people of Minneapolis.

Third home cooking and the same excellent service may be found from now on. Prices on everything seems to be going up, and the newspaper publisher is among the sufferers. The price of a book published by ONE-THIRD, therefore a higher price must be charged for advertisements and articles published in the papers. Don't forget this. Jarvis, "The Shoe Man," who has the great shoe establishment on Minnesota street between Fourth and Fifth, has opened store No. 2 at 106 E.
