Every farmer in the 6tate has been asked to join the Minnesota Farmers' exchange, which was temporarily or- ganized in St. Paul a short time ago. The members of the temporary organi- zation have issued a call to farmers in which they explain the purpose of the organization, and they have also com- menced organizing township and coun- ty branches of the state exchange. Several organizations have already been formed and interest, so the of- ficers say, is increasing daiiy in all the rural districts. The idea of the pro- moters is not to crush any other or- ganization or company, but to simply further the interests of the farmers in a legitimate manner. They expect to have a membership of 50,000 when the meeting to perfect a permanent or- ganization is held, some time in Jan- uary. The call to the farmers, issued by the temporary organization, says: Appeal to the Farmers.' "The time of the year is now at hand when the patient husbandman takes an inventory of his stock in trade. Having dpne so after a season of hard, honest toll, do you find your accounts on the right or wrong side of the ledg- er? If on. the wrong side, can you tell why? How are you going to rem- edy the case? "Shall you try to cultivate more land next year, practice more rigid econ- omy, deny yourself and loved ones more of the pleasures of life, and thereby hope to overcome the difficuty? Have you not done so year after year and find the plan futile? Has the price of your productions kept pace with the upward trend in all other lines of com- merce? How are you going to over- come this? The answer comes clear and forcible: Systematic business or- ganization. Reason for Organization. "Why organize? Because every other business, profession, trade or labor is organized. For what? To advance the interests of themselves. This is all right; we are not crying them down. It is absolutely necessary today. But, farmers of Minnesota, you all have heard the saying, 'United we stand, di- vided we fall.' . "Never was it applied more truly than to the condition of the farmers of to- day. We cannot hope to be independ- ent unless we do organize. Some call us independent now. Are we inde- pendent? We pay tribute to every trust and combination on earth, whose name is legion. When market- ing our products we calmly take what is offered. When we buy, we pay what Is asked. Oh, yes, we certainly are in- dependent. "You all know how many there are who make a living out of profits derived from handling your produc- tions before they reach the consumer; this is one of the leaks we must stop, and then there are others also. How will we do it? Again I say organize. How will we organize? I will tell you. Plan for Organization. "On the 7th day of October, 1903, a few earnest, public-spirited farmers met in St. Paul and formulated a plan to meet the needs of the times. Realiz- ing how helpless we are today to cope singly with the organizations that bid us defiance, to the extent of absolutely prohibiting the individual farmer from shipping his grain or live stock to the open market, even to the extent of threatening :nen who try to buy inde- pendently; we resolved.therefore, in or- der to maintain our God-given right to independence, to organize the Minne- sota Farmers' exchange for the pur- pose of doing our own shipping, mar- keting, etc. "This organization consists of, first, local exchange; second, county ex- change; third, state exchange; fourth, national exchange. Every department from organization to marketing shall be conducted according to business principles, surrounded by all the com- mercial safeguards of today." TO ARRANGE FOR SCHOOL EXHIBIT AT ST. LOUIS Plans Will Be Discussed at Next Meet- ing of Board of Education. Plans for the exhibit of the work of the St. Paul schools at the St. Louis exposition will be fully discussed at a meeting of the school board next Wednesday. Every department of the academic and industrial work of the schools of the city will be represented and the exhibit is expected to be one of the best of its kind at the fair. "We have plenty of good material for a fine exhibit," said Supt. A. J. Smith yesterday afternoon, "but the trouble is we will not have space enough. The schools of the entire state have been allowed only 1,400 square feet of space, and of course St. Paul won't get but a small portion of this. We will there- fore have to condense our exhibit a great deal and many good things which we would like to send will have to be left out. "However, no department of the school work of the city will be over- looked and the exhibit will be thor- oughly representative of our schools. The industrial work will occupy a very important place in the exhibit and I believe will attract a great deal of at- tention." The school board will also consider plans for moving into their new quar- ters in the court house. NORTHWEST CAPTURES CHURCH CONVENTION Universalist Church to Convene in Twin Cities in 1905. Rev. H. B. Taylor returned on Friday from the general convention of the Universalist church recently held in Washington, D. C. The Northwest has captured the next session, which is to meet in 1905. While most of the ses- sions are to be held In Minneapolis, St. Paul will not be forgotten in that re- spect, and will entertain many of the guests. Mr. L. J. Holtzormann, of Minneapolis, returned to America several weeks ago after spending the entire summer abroad, making extensive trips and vlsitlr.g the different European countries, purchasing goods for the holidays and for all occa- sions. Mr. Holtzermann's well known reputa- tion for securing exclusive novelties needs no mention and he states that their open- ing of a most original and exquisite line \u25a0u.-ni h« dniv announced. u-u- u^-IJ -ww > .-w-»><-<- t >ww-w- o -^^ "I NEWS OF THE CITY LJ yJ -^JWWLJ - LJx^-^^ , J - >r>rM- >r>^,.,- -. 1 MUST ACT QUICKLY Matter of Voting Machines Needs Prompt Decision. If St. Paul is going to collect its vote at the spring election by means of ma- chines. City Clerk Redington says the council will have to get busy soon. Mr. Redington finds that the pres- ent ballot boxes are in a badly demoral- ized condition and will be compelled to Invest a considerable sum of money in their repair and the substitution of new ones for those past restoring. If machines are purchased the con- ference committee will either have to provide a sum of money when it makes up the budget, or recommend the ac- ceptance of the plan proposed two years ago when the purchase of machines was under consideration. This plan was to appropriate the sum of money that is regularly set aside for election and give the com- pany furnishing the machines as its payment the saving that would be ef- fected by the machines over the old style of voting. The saving, it was contended, would be about $5,000 a year. The machines cost $500 each and about 100 machines would be required. The use of machines does away with printing of ballots. One big ballot is required for each machine. Where it takes an entire night now to count the vote of each precinct,' with the ma- chines, it is claimed, the result would be known in live minutes after the closing of the poles. It is possible that the board may in- vite offers of machines and use two or three in the coming election for trial purposes. JANITOR FALLS FROM SECOND-STORY WINDOW Michael McGorry Meets With an Acci- dent and Is Seriously Hurt. Michael McGorry, janitor of St. John's church and St. John's parish school, fell from a second-story win- dow at Mrs. Malloy's boarding house, 503 Wabasha street, yesterday morn- ing at 5 o'clock, and is now at St. Joseph's hospital in a serious condi- tion. McGorry fell from an open win- dow in his room and striking the ground twenty feet below sustained se- vere bruises and probably internal in- juries. The manner in which McGorrw hap- pened to fall is not known. It is thought, however, that he arose in his sleep and walked out of the win- dow, which was open. The window from which McGorry fell is low, the sill being about a foot from the floor. Other boarders occupying rooms on the lower floor were awakened by the sound of groans, and started an in- vestigation. McGorry was soon after found lying on the ground. McGorry was at once removed to St. Joseph's hospital. So far .as is known no bones were broken, but his condi- tion Is considered serious. STREET FORCE LAID OFF FOR LACK OF FUNDS City Engineer's Appropriation for This Work Is Entirely Exhausted. Because of a lack of funds City En- gineer Rundlett yesterday was com- pelled to lay off all his street force and from now on 'there will be nothing do- ing in that line until the conference committee provides more money. Mr. Rundlett made an effort yester- day to secure an opinion from the le- gal department that would enable him to get a share of the mayor's con- tingent fund, but was unsuccessful. The late rains, which caused much damage to the streets, made serious in- roads on his funds. GOVERNOR HONORS THREE REQUISITIONS Two Men Will Be Returned to Illinois and One to Wisconsin. Three requisitions were honored yes- terday by Gov. S. R. Van Sant. Two of them were from Gov. Yates, of Illi- nois, for Ed and Posey Williams, who are wanted at Danville, 111., on charges of robbery. They are colored people and were arrested Tuesday by Detect- ives Fraser and Haggerty. The third requisition was by Gov. La Pollette for Patrick Burns, who is wanted at Waukesha, Wis., on a charge of burglary. WILL MAKE .ESTIMATE FOR STREET LIGHTING Amount Asked for Will Probably Be Less Than Last Year. The board of public works is now preparing an estimate of the amount of money it will need next year for street illumination purposes. While the number of lamps will be greater, it is expected that the amount asked for will be smaller than this year. This is because of the fact that the rate per lamp now is less than heretofore. This year $185,000 was spent for street illumination. Financial flurries in the past have taught many people in St. Paul to appreciate the safety and usefulness of an institution like our State Savings i Bank, that does no commercial - banking.- trust or collec- tion business, but confines itself strictly to receiving : savings -and investing- them in accordance with;the savings bank law of the state. ..-.\u25a0 ; .

THE ST. PAUL GLOBE. SUNDAY. NOVEMBER 1, 1903. SAYS CITY PpOO MUCHTOR p GAS Corporation Attorney Figures Price at $1.44 — President Lathrop Says He Errs. Corporation Attorney Michael makes the statement that the city pays more for its gas than the private consumer and says it is easy to'substantiate the claim. "St. Paul," said Mr. Michael yester- day in explanation, "has a street light- ing contract this year in which it pays the St. Paul Gas Light company $16 a year per lamp post for gas delivered at the neck of the post. It pays an- other company, the Cleveland Vapor Light company, $10.45 per post per year to furnish the lamp and see that it is lighted every night. This latter item, however, has nothing to do with the point I attempt to make. Figures It at $1.44. "These lamps, they say, consume three cubic feet of gas each hour, which I very much doubt, and each lamp burns 3,750 hours during the life of the contract. There 11,250 cubic feet of gas per lamp for every lamp used. Now just figure that out at $16 per lamp, the present contract price. I make it about $1.44 a thousand cubic feet." The difference in price between mu- nicipal and private consumption was brought to the attention of the board of public works yesterday, and it is possible that when bids are asked for next year's street lighting a meter rate rather than per post figure will be asked. Of course the company owns the posts and a slight allowance must be made for their use. j Mr. Michael says his inquiry into the price per thousand feet of gas no\* being paid was caused by & Btatement that the city was getting its gas for $1 per thousand feet. Such a figure does prevail in the case of municipal build- ings, but he contends that it does not apply in the case of street lamps, where the annual consumption is over 120,- --000,000 cubic feet. Says Michael Is in Error. President Lathrop, of me gas com- pany, is not disposed to take Mr. Michael's statement fcerieiUly. He said when his attention was called to it last evening: "The entire statement is as errone- ous as Mr. Michael's computation, which, on the face of it, is obviously incorrect. Taking his own assertion that each lamp burns but 12,000 feet of gas, that, it may be readily seen, would, at $16 per lamp, figure $1.33 in- stead of $1.44 per thousand feet. "Our company's figures that the city pays $1 per thousand for its gas for street lighting purposes. /The burners are gauged at three and h,alf feet per hour. They are regularly tested and our tests show that they burn not less than that measure and frequently more. It is impossible to regulate one of these street lamps as closely as a burner in a house, and there is a good deal of wastage. Frequently the men light the lamps early or are late in ex- tinguishing them, we lose on that, of course. "We have figured this matter very carefully and we find that the city gets its gas for Just about >$1 per thou- sand." CHESTER R. SMITH TO BE MARSHAL OF PARADE Preparations Make for Street Pageant in Honor of Flower Show. Chester R. Smith has been selected as marshal of the floral parade, which will be held on the opening: day of the flower show to be given at Mozart hall during the week of Nov. 10 under the auspices of the woman's auxiliary to the Northwestern Manufacturers' as- sociation.

After the receipt of the documents to be preserved, a tinner will solder the box immediately, so that it will not have to be disturbed after the cere- monies. ALDERMAN CAN'T MAKE CONTRACT WITH CITY Holt & Dahlby's Bid for Plumbing in Schools Will Not Be Considered. Holt & Dahlby were among the bid- ders yesterday who competed for the plumbing and gas fitting in the new C. K. Davis, Phalen Park and Harri- son schools, but it is likely their pro- posals will be rejected. John E. Holt, a member of the firm, Is also a member of the board of al- dermen, and this fact, Corporation At- torney Michael says, bara the firm from any participation in the con- tract. -\u0084 Th° charter expressly forbids any city employe or official to become in- terested in any city contract work, and provides for the recovery of all moneys so obtained. Should Mr. Holt take the contract, he would be subject to expulsion from the board of alder- men. S. P. FOLSOM BURNED BY GASOLINE EXPLOSION Carries a Flaming Stove Outdoors to S. P. Folsom, 521 Whitall street, was burned about the hands and face last evening while carrying a flaming gaso- line stove from the bathroom where it became upset and exploded. The stove was accidentally overturned and the tank exploded, scattering the flames about the room. Mr. Folsom seized the blazing stove and carried it from the house. SWAMP-ROOT SAVED MY LIFE I received promptly the sample bottle of your kidney remedy, Swamp-Root. I had an awful pain In my back, over the kidneys, and had to urinate from four to seven times a night, often with smart- ing and burning. Brick dust would set- tle in the urine. I lost twenty pounds in two weeks, and thought I would soon die. I took the first dose of your Swamp- Root in the evening at bed time, and was very much surprised; I had to urinate but once that night, and the second night I did not get up until morning. I have used three bottles of Swamp-Root, and today am as well as ever. I am a farmer, and am working every day, and weigh 190 pounds, the same that I weighed before I was taken sick. Gratefully yours, Sec. F. A. & I. IL, 504 T. S. APKBR. April 9th, 1903. Marsh Hill, Pa. There comes a time to both men and women when sickness and poor health bring anxiety and trouble hard to bear; disappointment seems to follow every effort of physicians in our behalf, and remedies we try have little or no effect. In many such cases serious mistakes are made in doctoring, and not knowing what the disease is or what makes us sick- Kind nature warns us by certain symptoms, which are unmistakable evidence of danger, such as too frequent desire to urinate, scanty supply, scalding irritation, pain or dull ache in the back —they tell us BUILD MANY HOMES October Permits Exceed Those of a Year Ago. The explosion of the stove caused a fire which damaged the house to the extend of $500. Mr. Folsom's face and hands were burned, but his Injuries are not serious. What a Physician's Wife Found Out. The wife of a well known physician of Oakland, Cal., was brought back to health and strength by food alone at a time when she was prepared to die. She says of her experience: "Ijim the wife of a physician, and have suf- fered from catarrh of the stomach more than ten years, during which time I suffered untold agonies of mind and body, for I could not eat solid food, and even liquid foods gave me great distress. "I was brought at last to confront the crisis of my life. I actually made ready for my departure from friends and husband, for I expected to die. When in that state I was Induced to try Grape-Nuts, and the wonderful ef- fects of this food prove completely that ; ill my trouble was due to improper feeding. "I began to Improve immediately, and my weight increased until I have gained twenty pounds since I began the use of Grape-Nuts, while my stom- ach is as sound and well as ever it was and my husband gives all the credit for my wonderful recovery to Grape- Nuts. I have no set tirna for eating Grape-Nuts, but jUBt feasT^on it when- ever I please. I wish I might tell my sisters everywhere of the marvelous health and strength-giving, flesh-build- ing elements of Grape-Nuts." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. Look in each package for a copy of the famous little book, "The Road to WeUvilie." St. Paul's marked Increase in build- ing operations since the year began is again In evidence. October, which closed yesterday, shows an advance of more than $100,- --000 over the same month a year ago. Permits to the number of 145 were is- sued and they represented an invest- ment of $472,720. October a year ago 119 permits were Issued, their value be- ing $326,325. One pleasing feature of the building operations during Octobar was that the majority of the permits issued were for small homes, and if the pres- ent good weather continues the number will be doubled this month. During the past six days the appli- cations for residence permits were so numerous that the office force was un- able to keep up with them. The values ran all tha way from $1,500 to $5,000. It is expected that November will close with a big increase over the same month a year ago, and if it does a new building record for St. Paul will have been established. _. The two largest permits issued last month were for the new Northern Pa- cific freight house, $90,000, and the new armory, $100,000. YOUNG MEN'S CLUB TO GIVE ANENTERTAINMENT Rev. F. E. R.

If neglected now, the disease advances until the face looks pale or sallow, puffy or dark circles under the eyes, feet swell, and sometimes the heart acts badly. There is comfort in knowing that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great kid- ney, liver and bladder remedy, fulfills every wish in quickly relieving such troubles. It corrects inability to hold urine and scalding pain in passing it, and overcomes that unpleasant neces- sity of being compelled to get up many times during the night to urinate. SWAMP-ROOT A BLESSING TO WOMEN My kidneys and bladder gave me great trouble for over two months and I suffered untold misery. I became weak, ema- ciated and very much run down.

ARREST JW JOHNSON Manager of Whisky House Ac* cused of Embezzlement. James W. Johnson, manager of the local branch of H. H. Shufeldt & Co., a whisky house, was arrested yester- day morning on two complaints charg- ing him with embezzling $20,000. The first complaint alleges that Mr. John- son appropriated $12,000 intrusted to him Jan 1, and the second is similar, except that It alleges that a sum of $8,000, received July 1, was converted by Mr. Johnson. Both complaints are sworn to by Howard J. M. Cardeza, president of H. H. Shufeldt & Co. Mr. Johnson, who has been resident manager of the local branch, resigned three days ago on account, he says, of dissatisfaction with the methods of the company, and yesterday morning he was placed under arrest. He was admitted to ball In the sum of $5,000 by Judge Orr In the district court and was liberated on R. T. O'Connor and Patrick Conley becoming his sureties. A hearing will be held Monday, Nov. 16. "I am not at all concerned over the charges," said Mr. Johnson last night. "The company has received from me all money due. I have been manager of the local branch of the business for fourteen years, and have had no trou- ble with accounts. The only difficulty Is caused by the methods of the com- pany. If there Is a difference between the money paid and the records, it may be accounted for by the system of giving rebates to the trade, which I was instructed to follow. I wa3 told to invoice goods at one price and grant rebates, while not making any rec- ord of the rebates." J. W. Johnson Is sixty years old, and has lived in St. Paul many years. He at present resides at 99 Western ave- nue. He was president of the St. Paul Distillery company till fourteen years ago, when that concern was absorbed by the H. H. Shufeldt company, a West Virginia corporation. Deposits received nubject to check and interest paid monthly upon Dally Bal- ances. Security Trust Co., N. Y. Life bldg. Wake up! Wake up!
