sumed his trip in the northwestern
part of the county. Arriving to
the township Of Arctander, l called
briefly at the home of Simon Syver-
son, the county commissioner. Far
ther along the road l came to the
jackson farm,' where dinner was
furnished me. A new family has
located on the place, Mr.. Will,
Farnum and wife, three sons and a
daughter. They came from a point
about 16 miles west of Madison,
Minn., about month ago and have
rented the farm for term Of five
years. The wife of John Harrison
of Spicer is a daughter Of this
family. Mr.. Farnum expects to
devote the farm, which now is COM
prised of some over 800 acres, to
stock raising. A number of build
ings on the place testify to the
large amount of money spent by the
early promoters Of the place.
There are three residences. The
main barn is a structure l30 feet
long and proportionate in width.
The Farnums treated me very hos
pitably. Westwardly the roads lead
to the Edberg place. Here l found
my old friend C. E. Bergquist,
formerly of Willmar. l called at
the Edman home, and later arrived
at the home Of Hakon Nelson. Mr..
Nelson is one of the enterprising
and progressive young farmers of
Arctander, and I had pleasant in
terview. Several calls were made
in the neighborhood. At John
Gjelhoug's home l found this gen
tleman splitting wood. He stopped
long enough to say that he wanted
the Tribune for year, and l lost
no time in enrolling him into the
fast increasing roll Of readers.
Several more calls, and darkness
warned me to secure accommoda-
tions for the night, which were
found at the pleasant home Of Lars
Johnson. In this cheerful home a
pleasant evening was spent. The
oldest son, Ernest, had been tc

PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT SPEAKS

The power of the nation must be exerted to stop
crimes of cunning no less than crimes of violence.
There halt in the have deliberately
elected to pursue the policy of asserting the right of
the nation, far it has the power. to supervise
and control the business of wealth. especially in its
corporate FORM
Today wish to say word to you about the first
and most important feature of this task the control of
the common carriers doing an interstate business.
Every federal law dealing with corporations with
railroads that has been put the statute books dur
ing the last six years has been step advance in the
right direction. All action taken by the adminstra-
ton under these and the pre-existing laws has been
right and proper. There be swerving from the
that has been mapped out in the legislation
actually enacted and in the messages in which have
asked for further legislation.
No Backward Step
There will be no halt in the forward movement to-
ward full development of this policy and those who
wish to take step backward to stand STILL if
their wishes realized. would find that they had
invited outbreak of the very radcasm they fear.
There must be vested in the federal government
full power Of supervision and control the railway
doing interstate business; power in many respects
analogous to and complete that the government
exercises over the national banks.
1t must possess the power to exercise supervision

through national incorporation (Which should pre-
fer or in similar fashion, such supervision to in
cude the frank publicity of everything which would
be investors and the public at large have right to
know. The federal government will thus be able to
prevent all capitalization in the future prevent
any hereafter from pIunderng others by loading
railway properties with obligations and pocketing the

pie project. The movement was started
last spring by the divisions of men, and
