ARMY AND NAVY AS STATES
Admiral Baird Suggests Way to Assist
Disfranchised War
Veterans
Special to The Herald.


WASHINGTON, Dec. 16-The Unique
proposition is advanced by Admiral
Baird, superintendent of state, war and
navy building, that for appointive pur-
pose the civil service rules be amended
by the president so as to look upon the
United States army as a single state
and the navy as another state.
This suggestion grew out of facts
disclosed through correspondents show
ing that the states of Arkansas, m
diana, Iowa, Kentucky, Missouri, Mon
tana, Nebraska, New Jersey, Ohio,
South Dakota, Texas and Virginia and
the territory of New Mexico had dis
franchised boys in those states If they
enlisted in the late civil war before
they attained their majority
Admiral Baird recently applied TO the
civil service commission for permission
to make appointments in his large
force of firemen and water tenders
from first sergeants of the army. or
naval water tenders and firemen bear
ing honorable discharges. He wanted
a better class of men than he could
ordinarily get through the regular eX-
aminations and took this means to Sc
cure them.
The commission could not help the
admiral, as nothing short of presi-
Dental ruling could bring about the
necessary change. The civil service
rules as to distribution of positions
makes the total number of resident
voters in each state and territory a
basis Of division, and as the boys who
We're born i'm those states could not
become voters if they enlisted before
they attained their majority, the COM
mission could not receive their appll-
cations for appointment in the civil
service because they could not claim
citizenship to any one state.
This condition of affairs and his de-
sire to help these old soldiers induced
Admiral Baird to make his unusual
recommendation.

BIG LUMBER WAR
COMES TO AN END.
TUTHILL COMPANY PULLS OUT
OF LUVERNE.
War Began Last May and Prices Were
Cut to the Bone-Farmers Borrowed
Money Even to Buy Lumber When It
Was Cheap and Make Saving
Companies Divide the Territory.
Special to The Journal.

Special to The journal. .. -, Il F.,
Luyerne, MIMI, April 1.-THE last act in
war ever waged in the northwest is being en-
acted here this week in the dsmantlement of
the John w. Tuthill Lumber 'company's yards
In this city and the division of the stock be-
tween ]. c. Johnston s. Co. and the Porter
Lumber company-winners Of the fight, ..
The war began last May, when the Tuthill
company opened a branch yard in this city. 1t
Is said to have been started by the Tuthill
pany refusing to enter into an agreement with
the two companies then doing business here to
maintain prices. 1t IS also said to have started
from the fact that the Porter company had an:
agreement with the nuthill company whereby the
latter was not to encroach upon territory where
the Porter company was located From the
fact that the Johnston company could not have
had agreement with the Tuthill company as
to territory similar to that claimed by the Por
ter company, it Is believed that the first cause
stated Is the correct For few months
the war was conducted under cover, but last
fight waged. Prices We're cut to below cost
and the war carried either by the Johnston
company or the Porter company into every pos
sble territory where the Tuthill company was
all concerned. and quarter was given.
The settlement by which the Tuthill company
agreed to remove from this city was reached
at the recent lumbermen's convention held in
Minneapolis, and the deal was completed last
week when the heads Of the different. concerns
met In this city to invoice the stock Of the
Iuthlll company preparatory TO Its sale and
division between the two purchasers. The exact
terms by which the Tuthill people leave Luverne
Will probably never be known, beyond the fact
that the Porter company agrees to leave the
Sioux Falls market. so far as it is concerned,
to the Tuthill company. and that both the John
ston and the Porter company will discontinue
the ruinous prices they have been giving. in the
surrounding towns where the Tuthill company
has yards.
The old adage: "1't i'll wind that blows
good to no one.' was peculiarly. true in this
instance. as many persons in the territory reaped
a rich haryes by buying their building material
for prospective improvements while the war was
on. In some instances borrowed money to
buy their lumber In advance, and in SO doing
made big saving.
