THE VOICE OF THE PRESS. DULUTH DULUTH—SUPERIOR. Mr. Ervin graduated from the College of Law, University of Minnesota, with the class of '07, and located at Duluth, Minnesota, where he has had phenomenal success. Mr. Ervin, (having a peronal injury case in which his client asked for $5,000 damages against a wealthy corporation of New York), was admitted to practice in the United States District and United States Circuit Courts, July 6, 1909, to try the same, and was very successful. J.

Damage cases, real estate and contracts are his specialties. Mr. Ervin's office is at 1006 Torrey Building, Duluth, Minnesota. He is one of the trio of popular young lawyers from the "U." the other two being Attorney Wm. H. H. FrankLin and Robert Wells Marshall ("Bobby"), they are still close friends and associates. TO OUR VOTERS The vote among negroes, in Duluth is worth more than a single janitorship or eight or ten days on a jury and it is just about time the negroes in Duluth awakened to the fact. Your vote will never be worth a dried apple dam if you have to play a favorite all the time. Several well known men should know by now how much credence to put in pre-election promises of the present powers that be. What are you going to do about it? Are you going to vote to keep in power men that have no regard for you or will you get out in the open and fight. Show your colors, that the race may not lose a single place. CLARENCE B. MILLER Clarence B. Miller, the Republican candidate from this district polled practically the entire negro vote at the last Congressional election. If there was reason for voting for Mr. Miller then, there is twice as much reason for voting for him now. On questions affecting the Negro he voted yea when yea meant something to our interest. Much of the agitation against Mr. Miller at present is mere political buncombe and so far as we are concerned, amounts to naught. Vote for Miller and the BIG EXPOSITION in 1913 which will put the negro on the Commercial, Literary, Financial and Political map. John R. Meining, a local traveling man for the Duluth Candy Company is again making the run for Sheriff against Sheriff Wm. Bates, with a good chance of "winning out." John is a good clean cut, square up and up man and it might help some if there were a few changes made at the County Court House. You know what to expect from the old Regime—NOTHING. What's the answer? Try some one else. Come up and meet a real square man face to face Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock at Kalamazoo Hall. Something doing all the while. John's the Candy man come and see. CHAS BAKOWSKY For Charley as he is familiarly called, there is nothing but good words. He can be relied upon to keep his promise. No one can deny the "he keeps his word." There is a reason for your voting for him. Ask the knowing ones. Odin Halden is in every way deserving of your support. These men are our friends.

Strong of St. Paul, who is a friend of the family told of Mr. English's conversion in a very able manner.

Such men as Dickerson, Parker, Hale, Sturman, Williams, Vlnigar, Newton, Carlise and King, and others that space will not permit, should be given special credit for their interest. Our entertainment on Monday eve was a success. Mrs. Jos. Withers and Corneal Wharton worked hard and was rewarded. Four of my friends from old Bethel in Chicago gave me a surprise last Sunday evening. Don't forget that SUNDAY the 18th is the LAST DAY for DOLLAR-MONEY. The ministers coming to our city must read the Star for news. Rev. Jas. L. Wharton. The popular opinion and the wish of the people is that we have Rev Wharton with us for a long while.

No.14. New Negro Political Movement National Anti-Jim Crow Car Law Five Pledges for Candidates. The Platform. It is time, therefore, for an independent Negro movement in politics. We should refuse alliance with either of the two dominant parties at present and confine our attention to men. We should vote and vote only for congressmen and other candidates for office who pledge themselves to advocate the following measures: 1. The restoration of the discharged Brownsville soldiers. 2. National legislation against lynching and mob law. 3. The passage of a national anti-Jim Crow law. 4. National aid to education, with the same opportunities to all children 5.

Mr. Satterlee's long experience as a business man, and his prominent connection with the public affairs of this city peculiarly qualify him for the position. If elected he will give the city an administration in the interests of all the people and pledges himself to an honest, able discharge of the duties of Mayor. WHAT "PROGRESSIVE" MEANS. As Mr. Hall is the "Progressive" Republican candidate it is interesting to know Theodore Roosevelt's definition of that term in his famous speech at Osawatomic, Kansas, September 1, of this year. Colonel Roosevelt said: "The issue of the day is the struggle of free men to gain and hold the right of self-government as against special interests who twist the methods of free government into machinery for defeating the popular will." "We must drive the special interests of politics. That is one of our tasks today. Every special interest is entitled to justice—full, fair and complete—but not one is entitled to a vote in congress, a voice on the bench or to representation in any public office." ALBERT H. HALL. His Policy. If elected to congress, I will not vote for Mr. Cannon, nor for any other man pledged to the system or policy he represents. The system must go. I shall affiliate and act with progressive Republicans and all others in congress who seek to make the house of representatives again a representative body, and place the responsibility of its action upon the individual judgment and conscience of every member and prevent the evasion of that responsibility behind vicious party dictation. The speaker must be the servant, not the master, of the house. PRIMARY ELECTION, SEPT. 20. Special Sunday Dinner at Dan'a. Subscribe to the Star. CHAS. S. SMITH, Editor, 126 Codar Ave. MINNEAPOLIS.

Beveridge of Indiana was the principal speaker at today's session of the National Con- servation congress. Senator Beveridge spoke at the morning session on the subject of "The Young Man's Idea." He said: The United States is. The American people are a Nation—not forty-nix nation. Our history is the story of the struggle of the National sentiment of all the people, which special interests for their selfish purposes sought to discourage, against the provincial sentiment of some of the more national for their selfish purposes sought to encourage. The parents of the provincial idea in American government was the British. The British crown fostered the idea, but the Colonies were separated by their pride, prejudice and seafood the British policy would be easier. They knew that the Colonies had interests, sentiment and purpose, the British policy would be harder. And that policy would to permit the special interests of the colonies to exploit the people of the colonies. Therefore from King James to King George the British crown fostered local interests among the colonies. Divided in geography for convenience of British government, the British kings kept them divided in facturers. Every British law which forced the revolution was a law to help the special interests of the United Kingdom the markets of the colonies. The revolution was the war of the people, for the moment united, against the special interests that had undergone the division. Such is the historic origin of American provincialism. Washington and his conquests unified and manning the shoted guns of liberty; the British and their Tory and Hessian allies were the full grown force of the American press. The colonists entered the conflict under many flags: the American people emerged from the struggle carrying Provincial Idea Failed. Our first attempt at government was a failure because the royal British idea of a failure was the local pride, prejudice and jealousy of separate colonies sprang up when their comrades were defeated. Confederation was the unhappy result. Washington declared that that government was contemptible. It was the prosecution of its logical conclusion. And so it fell. The people's cruel necessities compelled the reassertion of the National idea, and the constitution was that idea's immortal clared that "we, the states" formed the government; the constitution declares that "we, the people," formed the government into that "great ordinance of nationality," as Chief Justice Marshall calls our constitution, crept defects which the statemen of that day could not prevent—most of our troubles since; and most of them come from that provincialism which we had inherited from the policy of the British kings. The constitution was adopted, "States' right" were not mentioned. Washington was elected president; congress was in session and the National government was under way. The tenth amendment preaching the paradox that the general government of all the people would oppress the people. Nolstel of these was Patrick Henry, then governor of Virginia, and the constitutional convention and opposed the ratification of our fundamental law. Upon the embers of provincialism he threw the inflammable brushwood of his excited rhet- National Spirit Victorious. Being in the constitution, the states' rights provision is as valid as any other amendment. But such is the origin and purpose of the Constitution, that must be permitted to nullify the Nation's interests, waste the Nation's resources, plunge the Nation into war or prevent the general welfare of the whole people. The Constitution does not so much that the Nation will interfere with the rights of the states, as that the states will interfere with the rights of the Nation. The National government was started its first conflict with provincialism was in the whisky rebellion in Pennsylvania; the special interests who dealt in rum in the name of state sovereignty deceived the people. But Washington put down that first state's' rights rebellion in the name of the government of all the people. Then came the resistance of special interests. Andrew Jackson's day. The voice of Jackson in his day, like the voice of Washington in his day, was the voice of a united people against special interests. Andrew Jackson's day. The voice of Jackson in his day, like the voice of Washington in his day, was the voice of a united people against special interests. Andrew Jackson's day. The voice of Jackson in his day, like the voice of Then came the special interests that thrived on slavery and under the provinces of the United States, sought to destroy the Nation they could not control. But the National spirit responded to Abraham Lincoln's call to the mightiest war of history—a million years ago, across our constitution these words of the American people* immortality: "This is special interests were robbing and corrupting the whole people by lotteries; special interests were poisoning morals like lepros of obscene literature, they extorted money from the Nation alone could stop them. They denied the Nation's right to interfere. But the Nation did stop them and the supreme court ruled that it was the same with special interests that were selling diseased meats, poisoned foods and adulterated drugs to the people. It was against the Nation's effort to again fought the Nation's effort to protect Nation's people. Yet today National laws shield the health and lives of the people. The provincial idea of the people divided; they lished under the National idea of the people united. And again today we see these ideas for and against the National control of capitalization upon which so largely d The statement that the Chinaman has "always" cherished his pigtail needs modification, as a correspondent reminds us. It is not 300 years old yet as a Chinese institution. Indeed, the most remarkable thing about this honored coiffure is that it was originally a humiliation to the Chinese. The earlier Chinaman wore his hair according to taste and fancy, but usually bunched up into a top-knot. When the conquering Manchus over the Ming dynasty early in the TWIN CITY STAR. pend just rates and prices to the people. Just as the idea of provincialism has worked out, the idea of our national resources. The provincial idea was that the natural wealth belonging to all the American people should be shared to special interests. This was done under the plea of encouraging individual enterprise and the hastening of local development. And so forests which once belonged to all the people have been ruthlessly felled and upon their ruins have risen the empires of possessions of coal, iron ore and copper which once belonged to all the people have been surrendered freely to special interests which should have flowed into the people's treasury to pay the expense of the people's investment have been diverted by the ditch ditch having the treasury of multi-millionaires until the peril of their swollen fortunes is one of the problems confronting American statesmen. Waste Must Be Stopped. All this waste and robbery of the people's wealth must be stopped. No ancient and provincial interpretation of states' rights is adequate to the people's rights. No special plan for hasty local development must hinder healthy general development. No temporary wealth few must impair permanent National statemanship for the general good or all. We kept the natural resources of all the people and made private interests pay the people a just return for exploiting those resources, the Nation's income and wealth. We kept the Nation's expenses; those resources would have been wisely used and not exhausted; and our whole growth would have been beneficial. We kept the Nation's defective. We would have enjoyed all the benefits from our natural resources and yet put our children would have been benefited. We would have enjoyed small National burdens instead of private interests enjoying all the benefits of our national resources and their childless children. We would have private wealth and small private burdens. The Nation must keep and administer for all the people those natural resources that should aid and not hinder the Nation in doing this great duty. The state should belong to the public government, belonging public goods, the municipality the resources belonging exclusively to it; and both should help the Nation have the same thing with resources belonging to it. Had certain states conserved their resources which the Nation gave them, in exploitation, the people of those states would be better off today, their children better off tomorrow and their economic condition better now and for all time to come. Had the Nation conserved the resources which belonged to all the American people, to all the people to cunning, strength and greed, our progress would have been sounded and more Common Sense Policy. Co-operation of municipality, state and Nation to correct past mistakes and preserve and administer for the general good of all the people the natural resources of the country, common sense and common honesty. Strife and division to the end that the reign of waste and pillage in the false name of development shall go on and the feverish upbringing of the people in the people's resources shall continue—this is the policy of private avarice and private plunder. Forests and coal, water powers and phosphates—all the wealth that belongs to all the people is developed for the benefit of all the people. This great policy for the welfare of all the people is now well under way. Let us remember that the people have another step in the gritious process of the building of the Nation. Already it has saved the people much that remains intact, and all that remains of their resources. "Honor to whom honor is due"—let us not forget that the man who in thought, and in history, has saved and historic reform until 'today he is his personification, is that courageous, pure, unselfish young American, the president of the United States, Gifford Pinchot. For years he has fearlessly fought, and ceaselessly toiled, to save and protect for the people the prophetic vision that the wide battle has been the field officer of the man who first made this mighty moement a permanent and practical policy of American statesmanship. The The soul of our prosperity as a people, our very life itself, depends on the idea of our unity and brotherhood, and on another kind of working within its province for the common good of all the people instead of municipality, state and Nation within its property. We must understand the moment of the few to the injury and impoverishment of all. The economic and honest care of the people's common well-being is the individual ability, industry and thrift are entitled; the uneconomic and immoral upbuilding of special interests by the said people; the social condition of that just advantage to which individual ability, enterprise and thrift are entitled. This is a government of all the people; it should be conducted for all the Duty of the Young Man. The young men of today are in a different environment than that which saw the birth of the provincial identity in the past. We must think in the terms of the Nation; the blood of our common citizenship must pulse in their veins; their thoughts and acts must be for the common good of the people; and built the individual good of each; and though the rains descend and the floods come and the winds blow" upon the house building upon such foundations, "It shall not fall, but it will grow." Why was the American Nation founded? What is the purpose of this Republic? It is to create a greater human happiness than the world has known; it is to co-operate in the upbuilding of clean, honorable, prosperous homes. Let us move forward in a common effort for our common good that the American Nation has become a successful example of common brotherhood. seventeenth century they ordered the Chinese to adopt their own fashion of shaven heads and pigtails. This is first mentioned at the capture of Laoyang, about 1618. The Chinese presented the disgrace, and stone tablets Japan proceed that many fled the country to escape it. But the sutute Manchu emperor made the pigtail popular by decreeing that only honorable men might wear it, and that criminals should lose it.

Chicago, Illinois—The indications are that Congressman G. E. Foss, after many years in congress, during which he has become a strong member of the Republican organization, may be defeated by George P. Englehard, progressive. Returns from 104 precincts out of 147 in the Tenth district gave Englehard 3,132 against 2,786 for Foss. James R. Mann, an outspoken Cannon man, met stout resistance from his progressive opponent in the Sec- JOSEPH G. CANNON. Congressman from Eighteenth District of Illinois. ond district. Returns were exceptionally meager, but the first few precincts showed a close race. The Democrats who made Lorimer's election to the senate possible were in nearly every instance renominated. The standpatters and progressives split even in the 11th and 13th districts. John C. McKenzie, a progressive, was renominated in the 13th by the Republicans while in the 11th Geo. W. Conn, Jr., who opposed a progressive, was nominated. Speaker Cannon carried every county in his district. Result Is a Surprise. The closeness of the fight in the Tenth district came as a surprise to most students of the campaign. While Mr. Foss, who is chairman of the committee on naval affairs, has always voted with the reguars at Washington he stated in his campaign speeches that some months ago he had informed Mr. Cannon that he felt free to reserve his judgment as to how he should vote in the next speaker ship contest. G. P. Englehard campaigned on an unmistakable progressive platform and attacked the press CONGRESSMAN G. E. POTC CONGRESSMAN G.E. FOSS ent congressman on his record on the tariff and as a supporter of the Cannon rules. The so-called Lorimer Democrata won in large numbers. In the great majority of instances they were nominated for the state legislature. Three of the four law-makers now under indictment on charges connected with the election of Senator Lorimer were picked by their districts to return to Springfield next winter. Among those nominated are Lee O'Nell Browne, the Democratic minority leader recently acquitted in Cook county of a charge of bribing a legislator to vote for Mr. Lorimer, but against whom there is another indictment at Springfield. Senator John Broderick, also indicted on a charge SUGAR TRUST MAN SENTENCED Former Supt. Ernest W. Gerbracht Goes to Prison. New York, N. Y. — Ernest W. Gerbracht, former superintendent of the Williamsburg refinery of the American Sugar Refining company, who with Charles R.

The same honor was done Robert E. Wilson, who is charged with perjury in connection with the alleged St. Louis "jackpot." Joseph S. Clark, another of the representatives indicted at the state capital apparently was defeated. Cannon's Plurality Reduced. Danville, Illinois. — Two years ago Speaker Cannon carried Vermilion county by a plurality of 5,666. Incomplete returns from this county indicate that Mr. Cannon's plurality will be about 3,250. Twenty-one out of 72 precincts in Vermilion county give Cannon 1,238, and H. B. Downs, his opponent, 558. Caleb Powers Nominated. Caleb Powers Nominated. London, Kentucky. — By a decisive majority of more than 7,000 Caleb Powers defeated Congressman D. C. Edwards for the Republican nomination for representative from the Eleventh district of Kentucky in a primary election. Congressman Edwards is seeking his third term. Powers, who defeated him for renomination, made his race upon an appeal to the voters of the district to give him the nomination as a vindication of his alleged complicity in the assassination of Democratic governor William Goebel, in 1900. Shallenberger Protests Recount. Omaha, Nebr. — The recount of the Democratic vote for governor in Douglas county at the recent primaries completed, giving Governor Shallenberger a net gain of 83, but still leaving Mayor Dahlman a majority of over 200. After the recount was completed representatives of Governor Shallenberger served a format demand on the canvassing board that about 800 votes be thrown out on account of alleged irregularities. HELEN TAFT IN WHITE HOUSE. President's Daughter Will Not Return to College. Philadelphia, Penn. — Announcement is made at Bryn Mawr that Miss Helen Taft, daughter of President Taft, will not return to the college this year. Instead, it is declared she will stay at home and assist her mother in the many social duties devolving on the first lady of the land. Miss Taft's return to Bryn Mawr had not been expected by her close friends, was not known definitely that she had decided to discontinue her college course until the announcement just made. Friends of Miss Taft say that her own inclinations were to continue her studies and that she had expressed eagerness to return this year and complete her term. OIL Rates to Be Adjusted. Kansas City, Mo. — Several large refiners and producers of oil in Oklahoma will meet here with representatives of railroads entering that state in an endeavor to arrive at an adjustment of rates for the transportation of crude oil. The oil men claim new rates have severely injured the railroads. They agreed to a conference. Their representatives said there was no desire to injure the oil industry and they were willing to arbitrate the rate dispute 21% Cent Rate Law Combatted Little Rock, Arkansas. — Contending that the $2-\frac{1}{2}$-cent passenger rate is not remunerative the St. Louis and San Francisco Railroad company has submitted to the Arkansas railroad commission a report of its earnings since the inauguration of thatrate.

Shrew Scheme Stopped Run. Many years ago, in consequence of a commercial panic, there was a severe run on a bank in South Wales, and the small farmers jostled each other in crowds to draw out their money. Things were rapidly going from bad to worse, when the bank manager, in a fit of desperation, suddenly be thought of him an expedient. By his directions a clerk, having heated some overreals in a frying-pan, told an unannounced applicant. "Why, they're quite hot!" said the latter as he took them up. "Of course," was the reply; "what else could you expect? They are only just out of the mold. We are coling them by hundreds as fast as we can." "Colning them!" thought the simple agriculturists; "then there is no fear of the money running short!" With this their confidence revived, the panic abated, and the bank was enabled to weather the storm. Robert Lincoln O'Brien, editor of the Boston Transcript, is a great admirer of the thrift of the Vermonters, but thinks sometimes they carry it too far. O'Brien was up in Vermont last summer and went to dinner with a friend who had some political aspirations. As they came in the door he heard the lady of the house say to the hired girl: "I see Mr. Jones has somebody with him for dinner. Take these two big potatoes down to the cellar and bring up three small ones." PRESSED HARD. Coffee's Weight on Old Age. When prominent men realize the murious effects of coffee and the change in health that Postum can bring, they are glad to lend their testimony for the benefit of others. A superintendent of public schools in a Southern state says: "My mother, since her early childhood, was an inveterate coffee drinker, had been troubled with her heart for a number of years and complained of that 'weak all over' feeling and sick stomach. "Some time ago I was making an official visit to a distant part of the country and took dinner with one of the merchants of the place. I noticed a somewhat peculiar flavor of the coffee, and asked him concerning it. He replied that it was Postum. I was so pleased with it that, after the meal was over, I bought a package to carry home with me, and had wife prepare some for the next meal; the whole family liked it so well that we discontinued coffee and used Postum entirely. "I had really been at times very anxious concerning my mother's condition, but we noticed that after using Postum for a short time, she felt so much better than she did prior to its use, and had little trouble with her heart and no sick stomach; that the headaches were not so frequent, and her general condition much improved. This continued until she was as well and hearty as the rest of us. "I know Postum has benefited myself and the other members of the family, but it is a more marked degree in the case of my mother, as she was a victim of long standing." Ever read the above letter?

No check for that amount has ever been exhibited and the suspicion is strong that there was some cash and that the remainder has been or will be "taken out in trade." "Letty" is a pitcher, born in Baltimore on July 8, 1890. From the first he let it be known that he could throw cut a bawl. In 1906 and 1907 Sunday school leagues flourished in Baltimore and "Letty" became a Sunday school boy—a "bona fide" attendant of the twenty-fifth Street Sunday school, for which team he pitched. After the Sunday school business fell into decline, he denounced a Hagerstown, Md., uniform. It was an independent team, but there were some hot old games up in the mountains of western Maryland and Russell made such a showing that Manager Dunn of the Orioles corralled him for the Baltimore team in 1909. The Orioles were long in pitches of both ability and experience and as Russell needed steady work, he was farmed to Wilkesbarre. Breaking in In Recent Series Between Cubs and Glanta Star Right Fielder Gets Away A record that any baseball player may be proud of was made by Frank W. Schulte, right fielder for the Chicago National team, during a recent series of games between that club and the New York Giants, played at Chicago. In the four games played Schulte rapped out four dazzling home run hits. In the first contest of the series Schulte knocked the ball over the right bleachers twice, and those two runs, together with another home run swat by Shortstop Tinker, were the only runs scored by the Chicago, but they were enough to win. In the last game, that played on F Right Fielder Schulte. August 28, Schulte duplicated his former feat. The first of his home runs was something about which West side fans will talk to their children's children and to the children of their children's children thereafter, if the world lasts that long. Twenty feet over the top of the new steel score board did Frank hoist that opening drive of his, and that is some hoist. That means the ball must have been eighty feet from mother earth when it went over, for the score board itself is 61 feet high, according to its architect. Moreover, it is 335 feet from the home plate to the front of the stand out there and the score board is sixteen feet back of the screen. Outfielder Carey, the new man that the Pirates have secured from the South Bend club, is a divinity student. He is having a grand schooling for his future life in the national game. badly there, he soured on the team and finally jumped back to Hagerstown, where he was allowed to remain unmolested until near the close of the Eastern League season, when Manager Dunn could have used a pitcher of the caliber Russell had grown to be, very handily. Emissaries were trotted up to Hagerstown in a steady stream, but Russell would have none of their blandishments and remained until he took a notion to skip down to the Virginia League, where he pitched a game or two until "discovered" by Manager Dunn and his prompt rejection demanded. Last winter, chiefly through the agency of Umpire MAlee, a close friend of Russell, the boy was made to see the harm he was doing himself by the fire of organized ball, he signed his 1910 contract like a man. He has pitched some remarkably classy games this season and the fact that he has not shown mth since his reported sale does not worry—'twas ever thus. Incidentally, Russell is a southpaw batter, as well as pitcher, and displaces sufficient atmosphere to accommodate 5 feet 11½ inches and 165 pounds of vigorous and genial personality. CREDIT IS DUE "ART" HOFMAN Former Giant Says Clever Center Fielder, and Not Evers, Saw Merkle's Error First. Harry McCormick, the former New York Giant who played a prominent part in the now famous Merkle affair, is out of baseball for good. He holds a good position with one of the big western railroads. It was McCormick who scored the run that would have eventually won the pennant for New York had not the umpire called Merkle out for his failure to touch second. McCormick has some interesting views on the much discussed play. Baseball followers have always given Johnny Evers credit for being the player who engineered the play that cost the Giants the bunting and landed the pennant for Chicago. According to McCormick, Hofman, the Cubs' center fielder, was the man who did the brain work and deserves all praise that has been showered on Evers. That Merkle did not touch second base is admitted by McCormick, but he contends that not a member of the Chicago infield noted the fact. Hofman, who fielded the ball was the man who noticed Merkle's mistake, and after some frantic yelling finally got in touch with Evers to whom he threw the ball. Evers did the spectacular work with Joe McGinnity and the fans and got credit for a play that was made possible by Hofman, according to McCormick, who never quite forgave Umpire O'Day for his decision. McCormick, a former Bucknell college man, never known as an umpire batter, contends that O'Day never saw the play and that he had his back turned and was on the way to the clubhouse when the Cubs called his attention to the mistake. BALL AND BAT NOTES Chicago is to be one of the cities that is to get one of the ten exhibition games that will be played by Tex Rickard's two all star teams. Hughey Jennings is to be the manager of the All-American league team that is to be pitted against the Nationals in the big postseason series. Hans Wagner has refused an offer of $1 a minute to play baseball with the Tex Rickard All-Star team. The big German was offered $1,000 to play ten games. "Nothing like that ever happened to me," said Pitcher Ed Reulbach when he read in a Chicago paper that he had "perfect and intermittently iridescent support." Patsy Donovan of the Red Sox has signed a contract for next year to manage the team again. That does not look much like some of the stories that have been circulated that Donovan was about through leading the Speed Boys. TWIN CITY STAR. HOW 'CHIEF' BENDER STARTED Premier Pitcher of Philadelphia Athletics Relates His Early Baseball Experiences. BY CHARLES ALBERT BENDER. The reason I went into baseball as a professional was that when I left school baseball offered me the best opportunities both for money and for advancement that I could see. I adopted it because I played baseball better than I could do anything else, because the life and the game appealed to me and because there was so little of racial prejudice in the game. And I am glad I did. It has given me a chance to broaden out, to see more of the world, and to learn the ways and prejudices of other men. As you know, perhaps, I am a Cherokee, and my people always held positions of trust in the tribe. I was born and raised near Brainerd, Minn. I played the game with the other boys and played lacrosse, and also played lacrosse and other games liked baseball best, although the game we played was unfinished. Then I was sent to Carlisle to school and began to study the game. I became a pitcher and pitched for the school team in 1900 and 1901. The men who composed the Carlisle team knew more of the game than I did and we had the advantage of good coaching. I began to learn to pitch there, and when I went to Dickinson college the following year I was considered a good college pitcher and had several offers to pitch professionally. I studied the matter over from every point. At first I was timid, because I feared that the crowds might not welcome me, and that the players on the team might be prejudiced against me. There was another player, an Indian like myself, who joined the Athletics with me in 1908. The help that I received from Manager Mack helped me greatly in developing as a pitcher. I feel that I owe much of my past success to him. I had some trouble at first learning to control my feelings, because I felt J "Chief" Bender. that the white men were unjust some times, but I discovered that one of the big secrets of success is keeping the temper and keeping one's wits at all times. TO RECLASSIFY BALL LEAGUES National Baseball Association Gets Census Figures to Make Basis for Drafting Players. Census Director Durand has supplied the National Baseball association with a statement, giving the approximate aggregate population of the various cities composing each of the 43 leagues and associations as shown by the thirteenth census. The information is supplied to enable the association to reclassify its leagues with reference to the draft price to be paid for players. According to these figures the re-classification will be as follows: Class A—Eastern league, American association, Pacific Coast league, Southern association. Class B—New England league, Western league, New York State league, Connecticut league, Central league, Tri-State league, Northwestern league, Texas league. Class C—Ohio and Pennsylvania league, Southern California Troyee league, Illinois-Iowa-Indiana league Virginia league, Southern Michigan league, Minnesota-Wisconsin league, South Atlantic league, Wisconsin-Illinois league. Class D—Central association, Washington State league, Ohio State league, Carolina Baseball association, Virginia Valley league, Western association, Cotton States league, Southeastern league, Kentucky-Indiana-Tennessee league, Eastern Carolina league, Blue Grass league, Connecticut association, Central California league, Indiana-Michigan league, Michigan State league, Kansas State league, Illinois-Missouri league, Nebraska State league, Southwest Texas league, Central Kansas league, West Virginia league, Missouri-laws-Nebraska-Kansas league, Northwest Arkansas league. Freakish Baseball Plays. Speaking of freakish plays in baseball, Jimmy Sheckey, left fielder for the Cubs, pulled off a queer one last week that will be told whenever the fleet-footed outgardener's name is mentioned. Chicago was playing Brooklyn. The score stood 12 to 0 in favor of the Chance crew, with Sheckard safely perched on third. Chance smashed a single to right field and Jimmy started home. Just as he was about to cross the plate, he stopped, dug his cleats into the base line and beat it back to third. The crowd yelled "bonehead" and guyed Shekard unmercifully. Then Jimmy explained: "If I had crossed the plate it would have been the thirteenth run. Jinks, I guess yes." Sure enough, Beamont rapped a safe one and both Chance and Shekard counted, making the score 14 instead of the fateful 13. ARE YOUR KIDNEYS WELL? The kidney secretions tell if disease is lurking in the system. Too frequent or scanty urination, discolored urine, lack of control at night, indicate that the kidneys are disordered.

Apropos of the enmity, now happily buried, that used to exist between Minneapolis and St. Paul, Senator Clapp said at a dinner in the former city: "I remember an address on careless building that I once heard in Minneapolis. "Why,' said the speaker in the course of this address, 'one inhabitant of St. Paul is killed by accident in the streets every 48 hours.' "A bitter voice from the rear of the hall interrupted: "Well, it ain't enough,' it said." $100 Reward, $100. Does Engineering Work. Mile. Banduria is superintendent of an engineering firm in Russia.

TINY BABY'S PITIFUL CASE "Our baby when two months old was suffering with terrible eczema from head to foot, all over her body. The baby looked just like a skinned rabbit. We were unable to put clothes on her. At first it seemed to be a few mattered pimples. They would break the skin and peel off leaving the underneath skin red as though it were scalds. Then a few more pimples would appear and spread all over the body, leaving the baby all raw without skin from head to foot. On top of her head there appeared a heavy scab a quarter of an inch thick. It was awful to see so small a baby look as she did. Imagine! The doctor was afraid to put his hands to the child. We tried several doctors' remedies but all failed. "Then we decided to try Cuticura. By using the Cuticura Ointment we softened the scab and it came off. Under this, where the real matter was, by washing with the Cuticura Soap and applying the Cuticura Ointment, a new skin soon appeared. We also gave baby four drops of the Cuticura Resolvent three times daily. After three days you could see the baby gaining a little skin which would peel off and heal underneath. Now the baby is four months old. She is a fine picture of a fat little baby and all is well. We only used one cake of Cuticura Soap, two boxes of Cuticura Ointment and one bottle of Cuticura Resolvent. If people would know what Cuticura is there would be few suffering with eczema.

Now, that the election is drawing near, our people in the Twin Cities are being looked upon. And they know why. The white man wants your vote. Do you know its value? Are you willing to promiscuously present it to him? Consider carefully, and act accordingly! You should know its worth. They have disfranchised negroes in certain parts for this reason,—that his vote was his defense. If properly exercised, this right which you hold, will place in power the men, who can help you, if they keep promises after election. The days of reconstruction are past. The negro is in his "Era of Political Freedom." Vote for your personal interest, and you will vote for your race's welfare. This does not mean "a small sum of money," but for the men who stand for the principles of right. Assert your individuality, regardless of race. The negro has been the automatic property of the Republicans, without fair compensation, and has not given his support to Democrats, who have individually, helped his race. "Right of suffrage" is your only constitutional right. Be not bound to a party. The party of a few years ago may be different today. The principles of yesterday are changed today. The candidate who stands for right and justice to all men regardless of color or condition, who knows the policies of Lincoln and Grant, and lives up to them. Who does not recite history, but promises to give to your people their share of consideration after election, is the man you should vote for. DO YOU KNOW HIM? PRIMARY ELECTION SEPT. 20. Remember Crawford, the candidate for County Attorney. Colored men want to enjoy homes where they are able to buy them. Night-riders don't go here. If it's in the Star, it's right. W. M. N. Crawford, the republican candidate for nomination as County Attorney, is the man, who was one of the "agitators" in the Prospect Park deal. He will be remembered for his actions. He did not want colored residents in that section, and yet he wants their vote. We do not want such men invested with power. They are dangerous enough as citizens. Al. J. Smith, the present County Attorney has filed for renomination. He won't get it. He didn't want the Fight Pictures to show a "Nigger beating a white man." Roosevelt came, saw, talked, and left, but he said nothing about us. Show your strength, by your vote. Our Self-Appointed Leaders. Too much in the past, it has been the habit of our country to let any man do what he wanted, without regard to other men. We have got to that state when we must consider the interest of all—Roosevelt. What has the Saturday Lunch Club to do with our friends? Those "Gridiron" roasts are all right, but the colored voters of the 41st will always have a "Country dinner" for Rep. Lennon. And they know why. The Twin City Star of July 28th says: "Roosevelt's revised edition" of the Practical Policies of the Progressive Party is due. Who said that Teddy wouldn't "come back"? He said so. But Willie called him." This was our prophecy. You have seen it fulfilled. They say that Nye is "butting in." These Progressives, Norris, Lenroot and Madison say that he is not of them, and they do not recognize him as a Progressive. Is he a "Destructionist?" Where are all of our Colored Politicians? "There ain't going to be no one." PARTY EMANCIPATION. The Negroes do not have to follow the regular nominee of the Republican party, because he is a republican. They vote for the man with the right principles and purposes. They have awakened. Our best citizens are interested in the New Negro Political Movement. So candidates must "come clean with the right goods." Political Candidates JOHN G. LENNON, Rebublican Candidate for Nomination for Representative of 4th Dist. Comprising 5th and 6th Wards. Mr. John G. Lennon is the present representative of the 41st District, has been six years in the State Legislature, and is now a candidate for Re-Election. He presents himself to the colored voters and all citizens of the district solely on his record. He has made a record, while in the Legislature, that he is proud of, and is recognized a friend of the colored people. ```markdown ``` He has never made promises which he did not try to keep, and "his word is his bond." Representative Lennon has the indorsement of some of the highest citizens of our race, and they have all said that he is deserving of their vote. Rep. Lennon secured for Mr. I. G. Armstrong, the position as Guide, which he held satisfactorily but the appointment was later put in the hands of a commission. He has always been a friend of our race and he will get the vote of every one at the coming primaries. FRANK L. MORRISON Mr. Frank L. Morrison announces his candidacy for the nomination as County Attorney. He will not knock any other candidate, and places himself before the colored people on his record. He is well known among them and believes he stands well among them and has convinced them that color, race, or religion cuts no figure with him. His belief is that "All men are equal" and that "All laws apply to all alike." [Name] Dr. Seashore, our present coroner, asks for your support on his "record in and out of office." CANDIDATE FOR SCHOOL DIREC TOUR Mr. E. J. Westlake. Mr. Westlake has filed for nomination as school director. The colored voters of this city should feel that they have in Mr. Westlake an old time friend, and a man who has done much good for our people. He has always championed our rights and as this is our chance to show our appreciation, The TWIN CITY STAR has given Mr. Westlake's record in our first issue, and he HASN'T CHANGED. JAS. A. KELLOGG. Republican Candidate for Judge of District Court. Jas. A. Kellogg was born December 12, 1849, Huron Co., Ohio, and spent his early days on a farm. Served during the Civil war in 4th Ind. Vet. Vol. Infantry, was educated at Hillsdale, Mich., where he graduated from High school and College. Admitted to practice law in Mich., where he spent 15 years, served as Court Commissioner, and Attorney. Practiced law in Minneapolis since 1887. He asks the colored people of this district for their vote, and if elected, will administer justice to all. COLORED VOTERS' MEETING. There was a meeting of colored voters at St. James church on Sept. 15. The records of several candidates were discussed, and much information was given to voters, concerning candidates who, have not been favorably inclined to our interest. Mr. John A. Dickerson moved for the adoption of the platform of the New Negro Political Movement, which was carried unanimously. No indorsement of any candidate was made. Republican candidate for nomination for State Senator, Forty-second District, comprising the 7th, 11th and 12th wards and the south part of Hennepin county. Mr. Olson is one of those ambitious young men who owes his advance to pluck and hard work. He spent fifteen 4 PED years on a Minnesota farm, earning his first hundred dollars as a plowboy at 50 cents a day. He worked his own way through the Academic and Law Colleges of the University and has been admitted to the practice of law in Minnesota. Himself a self-made man, he is a man of the common people, and stands above all for a square deal to labor. He has a host of friends in the district who are giving him loyal support. Mr. Olson resides at 3052 10th Ave. So. His office is at 515 Security Bank Bldg. JUDGE C. L. SMITH Judge Smith of the Municipal Court is a candidate for Judge of the District Court. He is well known to the colored people of Minneapolis. He His education, experience and impartiality are evidences of his fitness or the position and his attitude towards the colored citizens of our city demands their united support. CHAS. S. CAIRNS Mr. Chas. S. Cairns, our supervisor of the Census, is a candidate for Judgeship. Mr. Cairns had on hi census force a number of colored men, viz. Atty. Franklin, Messrs. P. F. Hale, Robt. E. Lee, Chas. S. Smith, James L. Ford, and also one of our students of the U. They had one colored enumerator in St. Paul. We give all credit to Mr. Cairns, and feel that we should return our thanks by supporting him. Knowing that he is worthy and capable of that position. JOHN P. NASH Candidate for Nomination for the 41st Legislative Dist., Comprising 5th and 6th Wards. John P. Nash is too well known to all voters of his district to mention his good qualities. He has been a friend. He asks your support. This is his first attempt to run for a public office, and he now tests the worth of his friends. Mr. Nash was the Assistant supervisor of the late Census. FRANK E. HAYCOCK. County Surveyor, and Republican Candidate for Re-election. Hennepin county is fortunate in having the important office of surveyor filled by one of the most competent in the profession. The office of County Surveyor in Hennepin county requires a civil engineer skilled in road building, bridge building and land surveying. S. E. E. Q. Mr. Haycock is 51 years of age and a native of Minnesota, has lived in Minneapolis nearly all his life, he is a civil engineer and surveyor by profession and has practiced his profession in Minneapolis for the past 30 years, during which time he served 6 years as deputy county surveyor and in 1906 was elected county surveyor which experience has made him familiar with every county road and bridge in the county, and also the most up to date road and bridge construction required and most familiar with all the land marks and property lines in the city and whole county, all of which experience especially qualifies him for the position he now holds and his candidacy for re-election is receiving the support of the best people of Hennepin county and we join in expressing the hope that he will be re-elected. MR. NYE'S RECORD. Mr. Nye's record in Congress speaks for it. In every instance he was a consistent supporter of CANNON and CANNONISM. Cong. Norris of Nebraska at the Frist Unitarian Church. Minneapolis, Sept. 5, 1910. TWIN CITY STAR JAMES ROBERTSON, Candidate for Republican Nomination for County Attorney. Mr. Robertson is a member of the legal profession, who has arisen to his present position from the ranks of the tollers. He was born in Hellen, Ont., Oct. 21, 1866 and has resided in Minneapolis since 1886. He acquired his legal education, under most ad- verse circumstances, and only by the exercise of most rigid economy, working on the Minneapolis Tribune in the composing room and attending the University Law School. He was so persistent and studious that he was admitted to the bar in April 1890. He is now connected with the frim of Mead and Robertson, 406 Globe Bldg. There is not the slightest doubt of Mr. Robertson's ability to conduct the affairs of the county attorney's office capably and to the best interests of all citizens. In all his business dealings he has always proven faithful, honorable and honest, never swerving one iota from the path of rectitude and at all times giving his best services to his clients. There will be little doubt of his nomination as county attorney the colored voters will bear him in mind and attend the primaries. ERNEST L'UNDEEN. Candidate for Republican Nomination for Representative of Forty-second Legislative District—Seventh, Eleventh, Twelfth Wards and County. Mr. Lundee says: "I believe in progressive Republican policies, direct election of United States senators and statewide primaries, making it possible for the people to nominate the highest as well as the humblest office holders."
