A Saw-Proof Bar.

A simple but effective means has
been discovered for producing a bar
for windows, safety vaults, etc, which
is proof against a burglars saw. An
ordinary iron or steel bar is made
with slots along the sides Of even
hollow and the holes are filled with
molten glass. The saw will not go
thru the glass, and thus the bar can
only be sawed part way thru and not
enough to break it. To increase the
resisting power of your own organiza-
ton, drink golden grain belt beer. It
builds up reserve force, strengthens
the nerves and quiets mind and body.
It's especially adapted to use In your
home and should be kept constantly
on hand.

An article Is going the rounds of the
state press, purporting to tell of an appli-
cation for pardon made for Frank Tanke,
the Wellner murderer, by his parents and
wife over in Austria. The fact is that
the application was made for Johann
Tanko, an Austrian sent UP from st. Louis
county last year for murder, and serving
life sentence. Tanke was born and
raised at New Ulm and his parents still
live there. The similarity in names
caused several daily papers to confuse
the two men, but T h e u n secured
the facts at the office Of the warden OF
the penitentiary, and published the cor

immigration Restriction.

In most of the old world countries
from which the United States and
Great Britain draw their immigrants
laws are being passed which seek to
change the character of this move
ment. These countries recognize
that by the wholesale departure of
their thrifty and well-to-do citizens,
the strength of the nation is impaired.
They are entirely willing to be rid Of
the undesirable elements in their pop
ulations, and quite as willing that the
great English-speaking nations should
have them, but quite naturally they
want to keep the better classes at
home. Sweden is the last country to
move in this direction. A fund Of
100000 crowns has been created,
which will be lent to men and women
of Swedish birth and Of known in
dustry and sobriety at 81 per cent,
to enable them to purchase home
steads. The bait is alluring, and
Sweden hopes thus to stop the de-
parture of that class Of its people,
which has come in such large num-
bers to these shores and forms one
of the most substantial and desirable
parts Of our composite citizenship.
The Swedish homestead law may be
a good thing for that country, but 1t
will not be good thing for the
United States. Both this country and
Canada should be prompt to retaliate
by legislation that will radically raise
the standards for immigrants, and
throw back upon the old world its un-
desirable classes. Yet we move slowly
in these important matters. Great
Britain is not yet ready to consider
carefully the alien immigration bill
prepared by the royal commission, and
our own congress treats the immigra-
| ton question as if it were Of secondary
| importance.
The foreign vote has been great
stumbling block in the way of proper
| legislation in this country. Members
of congress have been afraid to move
| along advanced lines for fear Of Of
Tending constituents. But the better
elements among citizens Of foreign
| birth and parentage is today in favor
of greater restrictions and will indorse
any proper move congress may see fl
to make. # Europe will not send III
it's better citizens, It should be pre-.
vented from sending US it's worst.

If the assertion of James S. Wyatt,
manager of the e. &, e. mine, near
Sumpter, is truthful, the recent strike
is over nothing. 1t will be remem-
bered that the miners called the strike
because the management issued an
ordered that all employees should eat
at the company boarding house. The
miners maintained that they should
be entitled to the privilege of eating
where they pleased, just SO they
showed up for work on time and reg
uIarly. Mr.. Wyatt now announces
that while the company did issue
such an order, it was never enforced !;
in fact, he says, he informed the
miners that no attempt would be
made to enforce the order and they
could board where they pleased.
The notice issued by the Bourne
Miners Union, which was printed in
Wednesdays SIGNAL, plainly said
that compulsory boarding house.
was the issue. Mr.. Wyatt says that
this is not the issue so that it appears
up to the miners to point out for the
public benefit just what is the real
issue.

'lHE LIVE STUCK
IN STATE Of IDAHO
Range Problem is Becoming
a More Serious One
All the Time.

Director H. 7. French, Of the
Idaho experiment station at Moscow,
writing to the North Pacific Rural
Spirit. says:
Idaho is divided into three dis
tinct livestock belts, according to
altitude. The higher and more
mountainous portion, above 5000
feet elevation for summer range
chiefly, and then the middle belt
from 1000 to 5000 feet elevation,
where stock is fed more or less dur
ing the winter months, and thhen the
lower belt embracing the lower river
valley lands, where stock thrive all
the year around without feed, except
that found on the range Advan-
tage is often taken of these warmer
and drier localities for the location
of feeding yards for sheep and cattle
The range problem is becoming a
more serious one all the time, and is
demanding careful consideration by
the best stockmen on the state. Last
season stock was taken in of the
range in some sections earlier than
ever before to prevent loss from a
scarcity of grass and forage. In
some sections in the higher attitudes
considerable wild hay is cut for win
ter use, but this supply does not
meet the needs of more than small
fraction of the animals that find
summer pasture in the mountains
and high valley lands. More land
is coming under cultivation and irri-
CATION in these higher attitudes each
year, and the more thrifty stockmen
are resortlng to the great forage
! plant, alfalfa, as source of feed
for winter use.
Thousands of tons of alfalfa are
cut each year In Idaho in attitudes
of 5, 1000 to 1000 feet for winter
feeding. The wide -awake stockmar
gives more attention to the securing
of a supply of hay for winter feed
ing than he does to the furnishing
of suitable summer range Ii
this respect great change has taker
place. A few years ago little pre-
caution for sufficient supply O
either summer or winter feed wa
necessary. The hay produced in tn
state for 1903 is estimated at nearl,
50, 900, 600, giving some adequat
idea of the live stock interests al
measured by the value OF the ha,
crop, which is nearly all consumed
} within the state.
In this state, as in many others
} it is not question of increase il
, numbers of live stock as much as i
is an increase in values by bette
breeding and feeding; and a sue
} cessful disposition of the increase
This applies with special force t
the sheep industry, where the linn
in numbers is nearly if not quit
reached.
