The Voters are Learning.

AS to the voters, they are learning
to detest the exorbitant Dingley rates
because they fortify the trusts and in
crease the cost of living. The farmers
were fooled for long time by such
chimerical sops as the duty on wheat,
but they they understand the matter
better now. They know..that the tariff
does not add single cent to the price
of wheat they sell, while it makes
dearer almost everything they buy. No
voter is pleased to discover that our
protected industries habitually sell
goods abroad cheaper than at home.
The American consumer can not under
stand why he should be taxed to re-
duce the cost of living in Europe.
These reasons, with many others, make
tariff revision an absolute necessity for
the republican party if it desires to
keep control of the country. Portland

the windows in the passenger coaches
had been left open, and the mosqui-

kerchiefs and hands, but as they in

conductor was appealed to and stopped
the train. For two hours the train
was stalled while the passengers

along the right of way, making a

little relief. The smudge was then

quitoes finally driven out. Many Of

We are only old once. There

old age by the right ronte, so
that when we reach old age we
will be prepared to live comfort

1t is a good plan to save
something as we go along in life.
The time to save is while we are
earning. Save something during
your working days. You will
want an income to live on when
your powers are on the decline.
The average man has agreat
many years in which he earns
more than he should spend. If
you will lay aside a little each

Senator Thomas M. Patterson is OPP
posed to the administration land poll
CIV and in an editorial printed in the
Denver News, says: 1.-THE west is OPP
posed to government landlordism. On
that there will be no compromise. We
object to the leasing system, both be-
cause it is visible sign of the landlord
ism we are fighting and because it tends
to perpetuate the evil from which 1t
springs. We want the land filled with
homes. And we know that homemak-
ing is hindered by red tape; hindered by
anything which grants title, even
though temporary, to the big cattle
and sheep companies whose interests
lie in sparse population. We:have no
objection to the conservation OF the
forests. We do not deny that the lack
of regulation of public lands has result
ed in some unlovely things. But we
know, too, that the worst OF these are
triles compared to what may spring
from landlord who is backed by all
the powers of the national government,
c,es has dJ;tiie' more Bind
up the country than all other factors
put together. We see no reason why
the present administration should be
allowed to put an end an end to the
period of home expansion. When the
land is really used up we shall know il
without any information from Wash.
ington; and, until that time comes, we
object to having limit arbitrarily set
to our growth and prosperity"

VIKINGS EVER IN MINNESOTA?
Finding Of Ancient Anchor Thought
to Be Proof of Presence.

Crookston, acknowledgements have
been taken of the ancient Morse an
Choir found on the state experiment
farm the other day, and copies Of
these will be sent to the Swedish
and Norwegian governments in the
hope of ascertaining the true histor-
lcal value of the discovery The an.
Choir itself will be sent either to the
Smithsonian institution or some mu-
scum, and efforts will be made to
connect it with the supposed visit Of
the Norsemen to the continent OF
| North America centuries before the
discovery by Columbus.
| According to tradition, Lief Erickson
left party of 60 men when he
touched on the North American coast
and it is possible that this anchor Is
relic of that little band, of whom
nothing ever was heard afterward.
The anchor is light, weighing mo-
more than 80 pounds. 1t consists O
rather heavy cylindrical center
piece and from sockets on either side
prongs project, the prongs swinging
on iron pins through the center of the
cylinder.
| From the nature of the stratum o
clay in which the anchor was foun,
cay was not mixed with the -leas
particle of black dirt. The depth al
which the anchor was found and tn,
fact that it was imbedded in solid ella,
probably accounts for it's good stat,
of preservation.
i Efforts are being made to discove
other evidence of the Norsemen'
presence in this part of the country
