have been placed in every class of
material. Rail orders placed with
mills this year now aggregate 1,70O,-
600 tons, and more are pending. Not
only is the Steel corporation well sup
piled with orders, but such concerns
as the Republic Iron & Steel company
and the Lackawana Steel company
have orders for all rails they can roll
for many months. Officials Of one
company stated that they could book
orders for 100000 tons for the next
years delivery in couple of days, if
they were willing to sell that far
ahead. Among the recent orders for
rails are the following: Missouri
Pacific, $4,000; st. Louis and South

Need Better Roads.

r. D. Haven of Duluth, who had
charge of the recent census in St.
Louis county, says that two thousand
farmers in St. Louis county are handi-
capped in the development of the
county by the need of good roads.
"All these men are making living
or BETTER" he said, "and have shown
their good faith and confidence in the
country by tilling the soil.

consist of free land, good schools and
roads these people have come among

their homes and fortunes in the north.

Little has been done to encourage

listed in this cause, which is vital to
the future welfare of Duluth and the
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
Produce can be raised to prolific
and profitable degree, but the farmers
cannot get to town with it after it is
raised.
SIN the home markets all the pro-
duce that can be raised finds ready
consumption. The statement that
nothing can be grown in this country
is refuted by the fact that 1000 men
have settled here, and many are max
ing money by tilling the soil.
"These people are entitled to all the
assistance the public can give them,
and the sooner we get to work to build
roads, the sooner will our future well
fare be assured"

Lake Superior Miners in Demand

ly true that the miners from the Lake
Superior region are more widely scat

those of any other section. Agents
from the west and from foreign coun-
tries 60 to the iron and copper mines
and select experienced men to 60 to
their respective districts. In fact the
employment in the big mines Of the
lake country is certificate Of compe-
tency accepted in any part of the
world. More recently, numerous men
from this region have gone to Arizona
to engage in the development of the
copper properties there, and the splen-
did results and the record for quick
accomplishment has been revela-
tion to even the western miners. The
training in the big mines makes men
competent for almost any position
connected with mining.

The recommendation of President
Roosevelt that the four territories seek
ing statehood be admitted as two states
Will very likely end discussion Of the
matter and be at an early day favorably
acted upon by congress. In the opinion
OF the president the ACCESSIBILITY Of max
ing the four territories into two states
has been clearly established and there
is no justification for further delay.
so far as Arizona and New Mexico
ore concerned. however. popular opin-
lon is still overwhelmingly against joint
statehood. This feeling is especially
strong in Arizona. whose people are
most unwilling TO lose their political
identity and are also apprehensive of
the subordination OF the interests Of that
territory to New Mexico through the
superior voting power of the latter.
New Mexico IL opposed to the territorial
expansion which Joint statehood in
wolves. Such being the situation, II ap-
pears probable that the people of both
territories win reject joint statehood
and decide to remain for a time longer
as they are. AS to Oklahoma and In
dian Territory, 1t is likely they win ac-
cept the proposition TO come into the
union as one state. There has been op-
position in the latter to Joint statehood,
but It is not 50 general or strong as to
have much effect
1t is understood that Senator Bever-
idge, chairman of the senate committee
on territories, who has persistently
urged that two states should be made
out Of the four territories, will early
in the session introduce a bill for this
purpose and press for action upon it.
Backed by the recommendation of the
president the measure probably will not
encounter serious opposition.

quires and unless there is material
growth in the foreign demand there will
have to be a curtailment Of production.
This would be unfortunate and a re-
proach upon our enterprise as a people.
SO far as the export Of cotton goods
is concerned, It could undoubtedly be
very much increased IL American manu-
facturers were more careful to acquaint
themselves with the needs and wants
OF the foreign markets, particularly
those Of the countries south Of us. Eng
llsh and German manufacturers know
Just what the people Of those countries
require and provide 1t. Thus they have
built up a large trade and hold 1t, while
our manufacturers do little more than
work Off their surplus, from which they
get small profit, IL any.
No practicable plan intended to pro-
mote our foreign commerce should be
discouraged. The extension of trade is
matter Of prime Importance, which
should have the earnest consideration Of
congress. If commission is needed to
help advance our commerce abroad there
should be no hesitation or delay in pro-
viding it. It would seem, however. that
for this purpose existing means and
facilities are sufficient If properly used
