discovered, SO he claims, that If
you would cure consumption it is
necessary to have a tapeworm.
How nice! How you are to Sc
cure this tapeworm is not made
clear, and it might be as hard to
secure it as it is to get rid of
tuberculosis. So far as we know
there are none on the market
there are no quotations, anyway.
We fancy there would be more
satisfaction in the knowledge of

than in the possession of full

Freight Agent of the o. c. T.

not only shows approval Of the
course taken by the management

it apparent that those who are so
desirous of opening. and keep
open, the great waterway of the

envy or malace towards our great
railways We take pleasure in
publishing the letter as follows:
Gentlemen:-In you issues of

were to the point, and along the
right lines. We were pleased te
note your reference to the rail
roads. AS you say, at this day

cannot dispense with them, mol
must we disparage them; they are
a necessity, one which is linked
with the development OF the

should not permit our zeal fol

HONORED BY ALL.

No man in all Christendom is
more honored by the people of
his country than President Roose-
welt, and it is right and satisfac-
tory that this should be the case.
He is loyal to his country and his
people; he has proved worthy Of
every trust bestowed upon hin;
he mingles with the common peo-
pie and is one of them in every
action of heart and mind; he is
simple in all his ways, manners,
even in his expressionslof speech;
he is open and above-board in
everything he does, and as he
hides nothing you know just
where he stands.
On his present tour through the
South the speeches he has made,
while nearly all brief, tingle with
the essence of good citizen
Ship According to President
Roosevelt's ideas it is a great
thing to be able truthfully to de-
clare the glory Of your country,
but far more to the everlasting
credit of a nation to acclaim the
honor Of her people. In arecent
speech in Indian Territory the
president said:
Nobody can make good state except
you yourselves. You need just tho quail
ties in government that you need in pri.
vate life, A man who is a good neigh
bor, good husband, good father, is
the type of man who makes good citi-
zen. The person that you want to have
as a neighbor is the man to whom yor
can tie, on whom you can count, the mar
who is a game man in time of trouble
but who does not seek trouble; the maj
who does not brag or brawl. but wht
makes good; the man who is decent ane
square in his dealings with others.
That is just the type you have got tt
have in public life. You cannot affort
to let any man represent you in public
life if he is crooked; I do not meal
whether he is crooked on your side o
not, If hewill do something that is no
exactly straight for your advantage, h
will do it quicker for his own advantage
"a man who is a good neigh
Dor, a good husband, a good ia
ther, is the type of man VIII
makes a good citizen True
President Roosevelt is all of this
and more. He is a good presi
dent Of the United States. A
good, perhaps, as the nation eve
had at least, such seems to hav
been the opinion of many Of ou
citizens, about last November,
judge by election returns.
Some way, it does not requi1
rauch imagination to suggest thu
he will be demanded to accel
the presidency in 1908. Viii
this may be claimed as unusua
as he may now be considered
his second term, it must be bor1
in mind that he has only bee
once elected to the presidency
the people. It was unusual f
a vice-president to he elected
the people as their chief exec
tive, but President Roosevelt
an unusual man.
Furthermore, without some ma
advances very rapidly betwee
now and the time for again vo

Auto Cotton Picker.

The Lowry auto cotton picker Is
yet in an incomplete stage, but it's in.
ventor of the round bale process,
promises that when it has been per-
fected, the expense of picking cotton
will be reduced to about one-fifth of
the present cost.
The machine is not automatic, and
is really nothing more than a labor
saving device, designed to be operat-
ed by five negro boys. The pickers
are long arms, which are held by the
boys and placed against one boil at
o time. The moment the arm touches
the boil the machine becomes Who'll
ly automatic, but not till then.
Preliminary tests were held near
Shreveport on the Foster cotton
plantation, and each arm as the
pickers are called, picked an average
of 1876 bolls a minute. This is at the
rate of about 5000 pounds of seed cot
ton per day per machine. The ma
chine is propelled by gasolene en-
gine, which also furnishes the power
for operation. The machine strad-
dies over one row, which 1t picks
clean, and also picks clean the inside
half of the row on either side.

American Shoes In France.

Nantes, France.-Among the feat
ures of the season has been the gen.
eral appearance Of shoes closely re-
sembling in form aud style those
made in the United States.
The clumsy, ungainly and heavy
French shapes are gradually disap-
pearing. In their stead are coming
gracefully cut and finely finished
shoes Of a decided American appear
ance. The fact is, however, that It is
rather our shoemaking machines than
the shoes themselves that have come
TO France. In any event. the Ameri-
can-appearing shoes which are now
quite generally seen in this city and
elsewhere in the provinces are made
principally in Paris with machinery
imported from the United States.
This does not alter the fact that
some bona-fide American shoes are
on sale here. but they are much dear
or than the Frcnch-made articles, and
it. IS not likely that they will make
headway against the strong combina-
tiOn which is represented by cheap
French labor and prolific American
machinery.

A big bulldog guarding its masters
camp was found in the northern wilds
of Minnesota by members of the sur
veying party just returned from sew
eral weeks work along the northern
boundary line.
A trapper named Edwards, who
had lived near Eastwood Lake, north
of Ely for a number of years, making
his living by trapping bear and other
animals, has disappeared. His only
companion during his long trips in the
woods was a huge bulldog, and the
scores of deep scars on the animal
testify to the many hard battles he
has been engaged in with beasts of
the forest.
While the surveying crew was near
Edwardss place he left on one of his
trips. A month later the same party
found his camp outfit and boat on an
island in Bear Island Lake. The bull
dog was there, almost starved, but
still on guard, and it was long time
before he would let one of the party
get near. 1t Is the belief that Edwards
may have been killed in a quarrel

She Looks TO Us for Aid In Crafty
ing Her Imperial Ambitions.
Dr. Emil Reich writes, in Worlds
Work, of the attitude of Germany to-
ward the United States. He says:
There have been states which have
found It possible to stand outside the
arena Of European conflicts, always
selling their inaction dearly to
the combatants. Such power up
till 1870 was England, favored great
ly by her geographical position. 1t Is
thus, though not exclusively thus,
that England was able to rise to a
height to which her rivals struggled
vainly TO attain.
But to-day the vortex of European
rivalries has widened and England
can no longer act the spectator. Up
TO 1870 she was courtcd by Germany,
who knew that in the coming strug-
gle the neutrality Of England meant
the very existence of the German
Empire. But since her victorious issue
from that trial, the ambitions of Ger
many have grown and can only be
assuaged at the expense of the Brit
fish Empire. Look where she will,
Germany finds in Europe no steadfast
friend; some have humiliations to
revenge, others fear humiliations to
come.
This it is that explains the extraor-
dinary interest manifested by Ger
many in America; for America no
longer remains isolated from Euro
peah politics. Hcnceforth 1t is pos
siba for her TO take up the part of
rmplre-Empire no longer played by
England.
German imperialism has charac.
ter of its own. It is the outcome Of
high ambition and lofty ideals upon
the one hand, and of stern necessity
on tho other. Whether 1t be granted
to any nation to accomplish so high a
destiny IS that which Germany has
set before herself, may well be doubt
ed, Germany aims at more than mere
Conquests of power, more than the
achievement of an outlet for her
tecning sons. She wishes also to i'm
pose her intellectual stamp upon the
world; she wishes at the same time
to play the part of both Greek and
Roman. In both directions she can
find no more powerful ally than the
United States.

Modern War Changes Fast.

London.-"A terrible lesson" Lord
Roberts writes in an article in the
Nineteenth Century, awaits the ma.
tion whose soldiers find themselves
opposed by equally brave but better
trained opponents on the field of bat
tie. No amount of money, no nation
al sacrifices, will then avail; for mod
ern warfare moves fast and time lost
IN peace can never be made up dur

"If the citizens of SO great and
prosperous a nation as ours are TO re-
main exempt from compulsory SER
vice in time Of peace without the
safety of the empire being endanger-
ed the right class of ineu must be at
