The Governors Duty.

The laws of our state not only give
the right to but impose the duty, upon
the chief executive to remove the COM
mission in the event Of it's failure to
perform it's duty, and, in order to
know when to exercise that function
in a question like this, that affects all
the people, the governor should at
least from time to time keep himself
informed as to what is being done by
that body, and I am convinced that
suggestions from the governor to the
commission when questions of the
disobedience of law or the collection
of excessive freight rates are known
to him are not only pertinent but de-
manded, and, if elected governor,
will unhesitatinglyS make suggestions
to the commission when the public
welfare seems to demand it, and, If
necessary, file formal complaints 4A44

when drainage first began there

the drainage board to employ a COM

SPEECH DELIVERED AT

DEMANDS STRICT STATE SUPERVISION
Urges Vigorous Enforcement of Rail-
road Laws and Such Statutory En-.
actments as Are Necessary to Give
the People Square Deal.

Hon. Albert L. Cole, the Republican
candidate for governor, opened the
campaign last Monday evening at
Kenyon His address, which was
lengthy and carefully prepared, was
devoted exclusively to state politics.
On the railroad question he took
strong ground He regards it as the
leading question of the campaign and,
If it had not been before, the pro-
nounced stand he has taken could not
fail to make it so now. He stands for
the strict and vigorous enforcement
of the railroad laws now on our stat
ate books and, if they are found in any
particular inadequate, for their amend
ment in such a way as will afford to
Morris tribune., 1906-09-01

The fact that Mr. Cole is the herald
of vigorous policy, the fuller devel-
opment of the resources" of the state,
is widely known Indeed it is doubtful
if he could have been nominated at all
if his name had not become so widely
familiar in connection with the. policy
he advocates He made his appeal to
our state pride and our patriotism and
that appeal was never honestly made
in vain to the people of, Minnesota

During the state fair, from Sept. 8
to 8, Hon. Albert L. Cole, Republican
candidate for governor, will have a
tent on the fair grounds, where he can
be found from $50 a, m. to l p. m.
The people generally are cordially in,
vited to come in and call upon the
next governor of Minnesota.

The Power of the Executive.

The specific duties which the law
imposes upon the states executive,
which affects the people generally,
are numerous and weighty and his
discretionary powers in that direction
are very great. There was no law

torial advocating the election of Hon.
Albert L. Cole concludes: "We fail
to find a single reason why Repub-
lican should not vote for Mr.. Cole. He
is Republican, straight, honest bus
mess man, loyal and broad-minded
citizen and was duly and fairly NOM
mated governor, by a properly elected
delegate convention Of representative
Republicans"
Morris tribune., 1906-09-01

GUS enforcement OF our state laws, but
we should at all times endeavor to
create public sentiment which may
insure the enforcement of our federal
rate statutes.
Pass System Vicious and Harmful.
The practice of giving free passes
to public officials and favored individ-
uals not in the continuous employment
# the railroad companies is vicious
and harmful to the public welfare.
Therefore, I believe law should be
Gaced on the statute books prohibit
ing the giving or receiving of such
passes, and this will open a way to
the enactment of law fixing a maxi
mum price for the transportation OF
passengers at 2 cents per mile.
The Private Car Nuisance.
Great abuses have grown up and
wrongs have been perpetrated under
what can perhaps properly be charac-
terized the private car nuisance by
which unjustifiable rebates have been
secured The right of eminent domain
is given to railroads on account OF
their being quasi-public corporations.
The use of private cars along those
highways is not contemplated and is
harmful to the public welfare and it
seems to me their further use should
be prohibited by law.
Q .
Relating to favored shippers is
one of the most harmful practices
in which the railroads have ever
engaged. That practice tends to
stife competition and breed mo-
nopoly. The legislature has al
ready aimed to reach these abuses
by law, but l am in favor of
strengthening our statutes on that
subject so that this odious and
demoralizing practice will be
crushed out, or those who attempt
it be sent to Jail.
......... ....'..''
Demurrage Charges Excessive.
During recent years great abuses
have been practiced by the railroads
under what is known as "demurrage
charges" and for many years ship
pers of our state have been compelled
to suffer long, damaging and appar-
emily needless delays in getting cars
to be loaded These abuses can only
be corrected by the strong and Wig
orous arm of the state. In my opinion
a law should speedily be enacted cor
recting these evils.

In all ways that are practicable {:
and beneficial to the shipper :
should the statutes of our state on :
the question of railroad super :
vision be made to conform to the
p: regulation rate law recently enact !:
: ed by our federal government. :
In the event of my election l will
not only recommend to the legislature
the passage of such laws as | have
suggested, but will use all honorable
means in my power as governor to
secure their enactment.
AS our platform declares:
"There should be such a readjust-
ment of freight rates and charges as
will afford to every producer, shipper
and consumer the impartial service of
these public highways

framed and secured the passage of the
present law which requires that state
lands be sold in small parcels to actual
settlers. Under the old law or "sys-

iators and other sharks pooled their
interests and bid in the lands at their
own figures, involving a loss Of many
thousand dollars to the state.

will make the state laws conform to

placing himself squarely On the Roose-
welt platform, and he is with La Fol

value of railroad property be made the
basis of railroad rates and urges addi-
fional legislative enactment to secure
such a result. An accurate report Of
that part of his speech treating of this
subject is as follows:
Railroad Supervision Must Be Strict.
The farmer is not only the states
greatest producer; he is also the
states greatest consumer. In both OF
these relations the question most vital
to him and to every citizen is that of

Excessive Freight Rates Robbery.
Too high freight rates tend to rob
both the producer and the consumer
and to lessen, if not destroy, all pros
perity. The transportation question
I'm all it's forms is in the hands of the
people The only limitation in the
reduction of freight rates is measured
by business and fairness to the com
mon carrier. That carrier Is entitled
TO-. just and reasonable compensation
for the services rendered, and no
more. Within the limitation stated
the people have the absolute right to
reduce freight rates at will. While
there are certain additions to-, and
changes in, our rate laws, which, it
seems to me, are advisable. there are
MlIEduy upOu Oul 0IdLuIG DOOhS laws
which, when vigorously enforced, will
afford very substantial relief, and it
is the duty of the states executive to
urge that those laws be Justly and
honestly enforced. Certainly the ex-

0ected of him that he will fearlessly
and energetically exercise that power.

{ THAT HOLCOMBE EXTENSION
Will Come When the Omaha Again
Gets to Matters of Extension.

Archie Montgomery of the Daniel
Shaw Lumber company of Eau Claire,
was in the city Monday. Mr.. Mont
gomery says that the Omaha railroad
is completing the double tracking of
the road from Chicago to the Twin
Cities. While he is doubtful of the
extension of the Omaha from Holcombe
to Ladysmith this year, he is confident
that it will be done in the early future
probably next year. The Omaha road
fully recognizes the Importance of this
extension, such is the information Of
Mr.. Montgomery, and if it doesn't
make it this year, it will be because
the program of the company is to
make no extensions at all-limiting i'm
provement to lettering roadbeds, short
ening lines, etc.

MILLIONS DOWN RIVER
A Drive of Ten Millions Of Feet OF
Mixed Logs on Way to
the Mills.

The spring drive of the Daniel Shaw
Lumber company of Eau Claire is now
enroute. Most of it is for the Shaw
people. but they included in the drive
the logs of other concerns down the
river, making clean sweep OF the
winters cut.
Most of the ten millions of feet Of
logs in this drive are hemlock, the
e-stwhile much dispised timber that in
recent years has become more and
more in demand until it has become the
building material of the day.
About ten per cent of the drive is
pine and a small portion is Eastwood
and elm. Birch is shipped by rail on
account of it's Discrimination to float.
Discussing hemlock, Mr.. Montgomery
of the Daniel Shaw company, who was
in Ladysmith Monday, says that it is
constantly increasing in value. Within
the last year hemlock lumber has IN
creased in price fully $500 per Thousand
feet. 1t was boosted a dollar or two
last fall and January first, February
first and March first each saw an adj
vance of a dollar. Mr.. Montgomery
is of the opinion that investment IN
hemlock along the banks OF the Flam-
beau five years ago would have been
as good, if not better, investment as
in California redwood which attracted
so much attention and cash from the
heavy lurnbermen at that time.
Tamarack is another timber that has
come into demand along with hemlock.
Mr.. Montgomery says that his concern
handles it on the same basis and price
as the hemlock, except that consider
able portion of the tamarack IS made
INTO sawn switch ties. A few years
ago the large lumbermen would not
look at tamarack, although now 1T IS
considered superior dimension stuff.
Speaking of the city of Eau Claire,
Mr.. Montgomery said that the city is
growing commercially and improving
materially very rapidly. The only re
duction is in the number of banks and
that is a matter of consolidation. The
Chippewa Valley Bank and the Bank of
Lar. x5leifs are combining and will have
a fine new building.
Mr.. Montgomery anticipates that 1t
will not be long before the Omana VIII
he built from Holcombe to Ladysmlth
and beyond. He says that the people
of his city are awake to the Importance
of this proposition.

<A1CSI Taxing Ou IN early the cost OF
the Land Sells at an Advance.
We neglected to mention last week
a call by Howard Staples of Beauchen.
We mention this gentleman call, not
that he makes any claim to particular
note, but because of his experience in
the hardwood belt.
Mr.. Staples came to Beauchen which
is on the margin between Rusk and
Sawyer counties. He Bought half
section of timber lands. He operated
on this timber last winter, gathered in
over $500 for his winters work and
then sold the land for a good many hun
dred dollars more than he paid for it.
He is now quietly looking up another
piece of land.
Mr.. Staples is not certain that Rusk
county is good place for every one,
but is quite certain that it is a good
place for him. He is not decided
whether to buy land covered with green
timber or some burned over land.

MORE SHEEP THAN EVER
Heavy Concerns Buy Ranches and
Will Pasture Large Flocks

F. w. Tubbs of Tubbs, Foy & Ster-
lcker Bros, arrived in the city yester-
day from Chicago. He went out TO
the ranch today to look after business
matters.
To the News Mr.. Tubbs outlined the
sheep industry in this county as far as
developments at the present time in
dictate the operations of the season.
Tubbs, Foy & Stericker Brothers will
operate on the elastic plan. That is
they will limit their operations some
what according to the conditiods pre-
vailing on the ranges, where sheep are
secured, and in the markets. They
have bought 5000 ewes and their lambs
at Pendleton. This will mean about
5000 head which will arrive early in
June. If conditions are favorable the
concern will put in number of sheep
ranging from their last years number
10, O00-to perhaps rs, 600. Mr.. Tubbs
said that the concerns experience last
year was decidedly agreeable.
The Frank T. Stair Canning company
of Barron and elsewhere has secured
tract of 1900 acres on the Owen &
Northern few miles from the Tubbs
ranch and will fill it with sheep. This
concern now has 5000 sheep and their
lambs at the Chippewa Falls fair
grounds. They will pasture at least
Is, 900 sheep this year.
The Hubbard Milling company of
Mankato, Mimi, is buying a large
tract six miles from Flambeau and will
put on several thousand sheep.
Mr.. Tuobs says that he is much
pleased with the attention Rusk county
is receiving from sheep men. The more
the better.

R. o. Sinclair of the State bank was
a Hawkins visitor Saturday. While
there he noted Improvements and evil
dence of futher changes for the better
ment of the active little village with a
future before it..
Among other things that attracted at
tention was the organization OF a Good
Templar's lodge with about fifty mem
bers.
In a material way, c. K. Elllngson'
who retired from the active manage
ment of the Ellingson Lumber company
because of his health, and then found
that he couldn' be inactive if he would,
is pushing matters along other lines.
He has brought to Hawkins ninety head
of Young F'stockers" to feed and fatten
on the forage at that place. These cat
tie were secured at the South st. Paul
stockvards where stock of that kind can
be secured at low figure at any season
of the year.
This is a proposition that the News has
discussed at various times and one that
will doubtless receivesslnore attention in
the future. The amount of forage
going to waste in Rusk county every
year would feed armies if converted into
beef.
