GOOD LOGGING WEATHER.

The present cold snap is boon to
umberman, for the nights are excellent
for making ice roads. There has not
been time during the winter when
logging roads have been endangered
from suffering to any extent from thaws.
The winter has been one of the most
successful, from lumbermans point
of view, of any in recent years and log
ging operations are on the hum. Not
only is this true of the northern section
of the state, but the same conditions
hold good right here at home In con-
versation with Mosinee gentleman
Saturday he stated that the present is
one OF the busiest winters that village
has enjoyed in years Besides the pine
logs being brought TO the Dessert mill,
there are also great quantities of hard
wood logs being shipped from that
point to the veneer mill in this city, also
tan bark, ties and telegraph poles to
other markets Chas. Guenther, of
Knowlton, also informs us that every
body is busy down his way in logging,
and reports from other sections of the
county are to the same effect. Some
people are of the opinion that the cut
of logs in Northern Wisconsin this
winter will equal, if not exceed, the
cut of last year.

charges. But they were of public

TRIES TO ASCERTAIN
WHICH SIDE Is RIGHT
Wisconsin Supreme Court Takes Up
the Republican fractional Quarrel

MADISON, Wis, Sept 14-The SUI
preme court today took up the contest
over the regularity of the Republican
ticket. The first proceeding was the
filing of an amendment to the COM
plant The anti-third terrners attach
great Importance to the action of the
old state central committee in certify
ing the nominees and the amendment
attacks the regularity Of this commit
tee and its right to fill vacancies.
H. w. Chynoweth, for the La Fol-
lette ticket, objected to this amended
complaint, stating that it was an en-
tirely new matter and should be sub.
mitted in the form of supplemental
complaint. He also answered by de-
claring that the three vacancies in the
old state central committee of E. J.
Bullock, E. J. Foster, and w. J. Davis
We're regularly filed; that the reSigna-
tons were fled and accepted and that
w. H. Smith, A. ]. Van Cleave ana
Theodore Kronshage We're appointed by
the chairman and the appointments
confirmed by the state central com.
mittee.
The brief submitted by George G.
Greene, Of Green Bay, for the anti thira
termers, deals almost entirely with the
claim that the Republican nationa.
committee is the highest party author
ity and claims that the court should,
not try the numerous issues of fact
raised by the pleadings, but should en-
force the decision of the national com.
mittee and convention, unless the stat.
ute has specially vested the power OF
decision in some other officer or tri-
bunaI; that failing decision by the
highest party authority or such specia.
tribunal, the court should not try such
issues but direct the nominations OF
each convention to go on the ballot
on an equality"
The contention of Mr.. Chynoweth,
attorney for; the La Toilette ticket, is
that the state central committee is the
only legal authority to decide which is
the regular ticket; that this body was
created through an act of the legisla-
tnre, and that their decision should be
final. The answer of the La Toilette

FOOD COMPANIES
BRING LIBEL SUIT
Jersey Men Are Compliments and
Food Commissioner Defendant

Special to The Globe
JAMESTOWN, N. D., Sept 14.-An
important suit has been started in the
United States district court for the
district of North Dakota by the Asso-
citation Of Manufacturers and Dis
trlbutors of Food Products, whose
Headquarters and principal office are
In Camden, N. j., against F. B. Ladd,
OF Fargo, pure food commissioner of
the state. The suit is for libel. The
object is to recover damages claimed
10 nave been due to the publication by
Prof. Laid of an article which caused
great injury and detriment to the bus
mess of the plaintiff and the sum
asked for is 100000.
The article in question, which is de-
clared HbelouS, was published, it is
claimed, Nov. 81, 1903, in the Com
mercial Bulletin and Northwest Trade,
published in st. Paul and Minneapo-
lis. 1t is claimed that this article was
false and defamatory in that it al
legged that the members of the asso-
citation had cause for complaint that
they were unable to sell longer in the
Northwestern states the class of prod
ucst heretofore shipped to the markets
of this section.
Prof. Ladd stated that he trusted the
papers of the state might not be
caught by any scheme to overthrow
the pure food laws of the country He
cited the names of parties as officers
of the above association, alleging them
to be the principal adulterators of food
in the United States, naming such
firms as the Anderson Preserving
company, Joseph Camden Preserving
company, of Camden, N. j. the Philip
j. Ritter Conserve company, of PhiIa-
deiphia; George +: K. McMechan &
Sons company and the West Virginia
Preserving company.
The above firms, it was claimed,
were rarely found in the legal list, but
frequently were among the list of the
manufacturers of artificial imitation
products, containing chemical pre-
servatiVes and coal tar dye

The Hon. Thomas Collier Plat, Who

nomination ssof the Hon. Timothy

make an inglorious finish as soon as
he can be reached by the New York
Legislature.
Plat will have few sympathizers in
the. days of his downfall. He was the
most oppressive boss that New York
state has known. Shrewd he undoubt-
eddy was. So long ago as the days of
Arthur he manifested that shrewdness
by following Conkling into political
exile in the assurance that another day
would dawn. That day dawned for him,
but the darkness and bitterness of
death in defeat was the portion of the
man he, followed. Piatts return to

his political opponents. He made
peace on what terms he could. He
and he made no mistake until he un-
derestimated the strength of Roosevelt
as "a politician. His downfall dates
from the day he tried to get rid of
Roosevelt by forcing the vice presi-
Dental nomination on him. The fates
took up the cause of Roosevelt and
there is no manner of doubt that the
defeat which Plat has met with at the
hands of Odell was brought about by

For the pretended friendship of Plat

beyond the stage, of prophecy-did moi

| 1t is rather a pitiable spectacle, thai
| presented by Plat in his old age. 1t is
a warning to self seeking politicians
And Platt was plainly self-seeking
| There is nothing in his career which
| even remotely suggests an inspiration
beyond the advancement of Plat. He
| is undone by the man he made gov
ernor and to promote the fortunes of a
| protege of Odell. Higgins, who gets
the gubernatorial nomination is neither
strong nor a popular man. He is
merely Odell's man, nominated to show
Plat that he is no longer the power in
New York politics. He will probably

MACARONI WHEAT
TURNS OUT WELL
Side by Side With Common Wheat 1t
Does Much Better

Special to The Globe
MILLER, S. D., Sept. 14.-Threshing
machines on the farms of Judge Car
roll and Peter Olson tell story fa-
vorable to macaroni wheat that means
much to the Northwest. 1t yielded on
the Carroll place sixteen bushels per
acre. A part Of the acreage went
twenty-five bushels. The lighter yield
was sown very late on poor ground.
All macaroni was plump and weighed
out sixty three pounds to the bushel
Common wheat on this farm along
side the macaroni, put in early on the
best ground, went ten bushels, was
shrunken and averaged fifty-four
pounds to the bushel. On the Olson
farm the macaroni yield was fourteen
bushels. while the common wheat
turned out four. The price paid here
for macaroni is 73 cents; that for
other wheat an average of 80 cents

THE DIRECT ARBITRATION PLAN


A threatened strike which would
have involved the 10000 employees of
the Republic Iron and Steel company
has been averted by the Cancellation
plan. The representative of the en-
ployes and employers met and discussed
their differences, which were sub
mitted directly to a board OF arbitra-
ton composed of three men. After long
elaboration and exhaustive argument
which carries with it a considerable
money difference; yet both sides ac-
cept the decision as final and there will
be no trouble. An official of the Anal
gamated Iron and Steel Workers union
says officially that the decision was en-
tirely fair, and this in spite of the fact
that the employers gain by it.
The case is another argument for di-
rect arbitration. Last April the united
mine workers adjusted the differences
with their employees by the same plan
and the agreements made are working
out satisfactorily. In the face of strike
and lockout results the plan should ap-
peal to capital and 1abeS directly. The
insensate second strike of the packing
house employees, with its enormous
financial losses, might easily have been
averted by resort to the means en-
ployed in the miners and iron workers
| troubles.
In the contention just disposed of
10000 men believed they were wronged
by a proposed cut in wages. The EN-
ployers declared that the cut would
have to be made if the mills were to- be
kept in operation. A strike would have
brought hardship to many thousands
of persons and rendered useless for the
time an immense amount of capital a
| modus vivendi was proposed. The mills
were kept open and an agreement for
direct arbitration signed. The justice
of the contention of the employers was
made SO clear to the arbitrator that the
employees and their representatives SUBJ
scribe cheerfully to the decision.
Arbitration must eventually be the
| only resort when employer and en-
ploye. each representing great inter-
ests, fail to agree. The outcome of the
Republic arbitration is worthy the at
| tention of capital and labor.
