THERE'S NOTHING
TO FIGHT OVER
Despite War Yarns from Scan
dinavia, Everything Points
to Peace.
Karstad Conference Calls in Some
Swedish Military.
Experts.
BY w. B. CHAMBERLAIN,
Managing Editor of The journal.

Despite the bellicose tone of some of
the dispatches that have been coming
from Scandinavia, still believe that
Sweden and Norway will find peaceful
way out Of their difficulties.
1t is true that the delegates Of the
two kingdoms now in session at Karl
stad do not appear to be making much
progress. But it must be remembered
that the sessions are absolutely secret
and that the newspaper men present
have been quite unable to secure any
authntic information as to what is.
happening in the conferences. It must
be remembered, tooy that Premier
Nicholson Of Norway, and others pre-
dicted early in the conference that it's
sessions would be long.
Scandinavian statesmen are as fond
of argument as a Scotchman, and they
will thresh out every phase Of the ques-
ton and from every standpoint before
reaching an agreement.
| Nothing to Fight Over.
| What, after all, is there to fight overs
Sweden, in the proposal of its riksdag,
practically guaranteed that the indie
pendence of Norway would be granted.
That is the crux Of the whole question.
All other questions are merely mat
ters of detail. <...- -
Sweden naturally wants some con-
cessions as salve to her pride. One
Of these, the demolition Of the frontier
forts, touches Norway's pride. And
so there is a dispute over this point,
which gives the sensation-mongers an
opportunity to cut the leashes Of the
war dogs in their infammatory cable
grams. But it is impossible to sup
pose that the brother peoples will 20 to
war over such dispute as that. The
arbitration treaty Norway wants will
be granted by Sweden, when this mat
ter and the recognition Of the new Nor
way are settled.
The Wallenberg Interview.
The interview of Captain G.. O. Wal
lenberg of the Swedish riksdag's lower
house, in London yesterday, was can
4 didly pacific in tone. You may remem
Der that interviewed Captain Wallen
i berg in Stockholm last July. His utter
ances then were pacific and representa-
i tive Of the opinion of the great liberia;
party of Sweden. He is a captain OF
industry of great influence and what
!, he says is most significant. He knows
that the business interests Of his coun
, try will never consent to the folly Of
what would be almost civil war. II,
knows that the moment war was de
, clared, more than 100000 socialists il
) Stockholm would go on strike. H
, knows that the Swedish nation as ;
whole would never stand for war.
And no matter how much wranglin;
there is at Karlstad, no matter how
l stoutlv the representatives of each ma
3 ton stand out-in the end, there will
i be peace and amity. 81.

Herzig the Real Murderer.

stI believe that Herzig is the real
murderer Of the Grombacher girl. The
story is so big and wonderful that some
persons question it's authenticity. but
/ can assure you that it is reliably
founded. I would advise you newspaper
men to take up the theory that Young,
who committed suicide near Minot. is
the man.
uThere is bare possibility that the
body has been found in Wallace county.
The story was brought to me by men
returning from the west, one Of whom
Mr.. Dyer IS about 30 and came to
Ward county early last spring from
Kansas and took the claim south Of #
educated and of sound Judgment. He
is anxious to have the mystery cleared
up and will make further investigation
when he returns from Montana.
| Mr.. Mccain, representing a. Grand
Forks paper, left for the Dyer ranch
last evening to investigate the story,
but no word has as yet been received
| from him.

Ambitions Of Japanese.

Mr.. Griscom does not think there is
any danger of the development Of anti
American feeling. There is not, of
course. single cloud upon the relations
Of Japan and America, but the riots
have Indicated the ambitious character
and aspirations of the Japanese people
That they would not have objected to

from Russia in increasing the navy is
no longer doubted.
The peace OF the world, therefore
is advanced in the view Of high off

1t is all settled now. The big
meeting of the Campbell Dry Farm
ing association held in Denver last
Saturday decided by an unanimous
vote that the whole state of Colo
RADIO. with Wyoming and western
Kansas thrown in, could be made
into one vast wheat. corn or potato
field by the Campbell system.
Come right up, gentlemen. and
buy these arid plains while they
are selling cheap. The Union Pa
cific railroad will sell You land at
$500 per acre, so will John Doe
and Richard Roe 1t is true John
and Dick bought their lands for
one-half the taxes due on them,
and the government gave the land
to the L. p. but that was before
the Campbell system was in
vented. This big meeting has
voted that the arid plains and the
sand hills will blossom as IA rose"

vote settled it. Eli never fight for
water again. All my ditch stock
is for sale. I'll just register the
proceedings of that big dry-farm
meeting in the office of the county
clerk and recorder and raise wheat
on the top of Blanca if | want to.
To sell or not to sell is the
greatest question among the far
mers just now. When the local
market is in a normal condition
and the price of grain in the local
market is equal to the price in the
general market, taking freight
rates into consideration. it is gen
orally wise to sell at threshing
time. BY so doing extra handling
is saved. storage and waste are saved
and interest on money is saved.
No man on earth can tell whether
the price of grain is going up or
down.

4 Great Cheese State.

Free Press:
The annual compilation by w. G..
Thomas Of Sheboygan Falls of the
sales of cheese on the dairy boards of
Wisconsin in 1904 shows IA total of
| 1889, 1856 pounds, which at u closely
estimated average price paid for all
kinds, brought SILICA ,S00.72. More fac
tory men, Mr.. Thomas says, sold their
cheese on Wisconsin dairy boards in
1904 than in any previous year and
the number OF pounds thus sold was
over 100000 in excess of 1903. The
general average price, however, was
only about 9lae, Or nearly - less
than in 1908 when it was estimated
at about llc.
The Plymouth board leads with II
total of !, li0,6iS pounds, hut the COM
bined sales of Sheboygan Falls, in
076 pounds. Next comes Manitowoc,
with 1874 1902 pounds; Appleton, with
1907, l5i; Brillion, l,7S20SS; Seymour,
l,45S,072, and Fond du Lac, l0i6,93S.
followed by the boards of Muscoda,
Mineral Point, New London, Horton
Vile and the Wisconsin G. h. com
pany.
Mr.. Thomas's figures are always
the most complete and accurare fig
ures for the sales on dairy boards,
but it should be remembered that
these do not cover IA half, or possibly,
he says, one quarter of all the Amer
lean cheese produced in the state.
They give an adequate and accurate
idea, however, OF the magnitude of
! the cheese interest in Wisconsin.
Prof. Car son of Madison, in paper
read ednesday before the state
cheesemokers' convention in this
city, said that Wisconsin produced
last year 100000 pounds of cheese,
which was sold for about Sl00000o0.

The United States SenafOrship.


TO the Editor: rs - the United
States seuatorship, IT seems to me
there is but one consistent course to
pursue, and that is the election OF
Gov. La Toilette, For. il. any. man
ever earned that high Office it is he
| whether we consider his eminent fit
| tremendous and efficient iaDors IN
the late campaign, his magnificent
leadership and geniusa as q statesman
and organizer OF victory and reform,
| or whether we consider the great is
sues and questions now pressing Tor
ward for solution--and demanding
| men Of precisely his type and genius
| in the United States senate. / sin
cerely believe that not only large
majority Of the Republicans in Wis
cousin desire his election, but also
that large number Of all the par
ties inside and outside the state
would rejoice to see him sent to the
senate.
Again, President Roosevelt has am
nounced emphatica That under no
conditions that may arise Will he be
candidate for election. He has
also announced "A series Of reforms,
to which he has virtually committed
his administration for the next four
years-reforms of the most vital inn
portance to the welfare OF the peo
pie, involving their rights and liber-
ties, and against which will undoubt-
wealth and power OF the nation.
These reforms are identical in prin-
ciple and effect with those so mag
nificently championed by Gov. La
Toilette aud now triumphantly as
sured to the people Of Wisconsin.
The president needs all the assis-
lance he can get in the senate. He
needs the aggressive energy, the an
fa!tering loyalty and devotion and
the splendid genius and statesman
ship of our LaFollotte. Besides, it is
quite improbable that the president
will be able to carry to success all
his reforms In "A single term of four
years. Hence, it is of great impor-
lance that "A man OF the same type
and character, like La Toilette,
should be ready to be chosen to sue
coed him, which is not improbable,
and carry the great work forward To
final victory.
For these among many reasons
Gov. LaFollette should be elected to
the United States senate. READER.
