A TORPEDO FACTORY
Plans Just Completed For Con-
struction of One at
Newport, r. I.

Associated Press to The Evening Times.
Washington, d. c., March 22.-Plans
have just been completed by the naval
bureau of ordnance for the construc-
ton of a torpedo factory at Newport
naval station. This will be the first
time the government has undertaken
to make its own torpedos on a large
scale, heretofore all weapons of that
kind having been procured under con-
tract from private makers. The new
factory will give employment to at
least 200 skilled workmen as soon us
it is in running order. 1t is proposed
to make every part of the torpedo with
the exception of the steel TASKS, which
contain the compressed air used to
drive the engines and propel the tor
pedCs. Material of particular excell-
ence is required for these TASKS, ow-
ing to tho high pressure they are
Obliged to sustain, ranging in the case
OF the latest torpedoes up to 5000
pounds to the square inch. The ma
chinery necessary for their manufac-
ture is expensive and expert workman
ship Is required, SO that it is believed
to be cheaper to procure them from
the concerns now making similar
TASKS for commercial uses than to
undertake to make them in a govern
ment shop

ever makes tour of the world it will
be as traveller and student and not
as an ex-president posing for popu-
larity.
But the most ridiculous idea ad-
vanced by the people who desire to
head off the Roosevelt tidal wave is
the statement that he would so plan
his homecoming that the spectacular
demonstration which he would receive
would be used to secure the nomina-
ton for the presidency. Those who
have watched him during the nearly
six years that he has filled the posi-
ton of chief magistrate of the nation,
know that the things which he des-
pises and abhors most is insincerity
and political chicanery. He has Sc
cured place in the esteem and love
of the American people which has
been held by no other president be-
cause he has been frank, open and
sincere. If he wanted the nomina-
ton, at the proper time he would let
his wants be known in a candid and
dignified manner and without any of
the demagoguery which has some
CHI hn IF
ed great men. Every idea in the world
tours story is so utterly at variance
with his nature and his character
istics that they need only be men
toned to be refuted.
The milk in the cocoanut is that
he will not be a candidate for the
nomination in the accepted use of
that expression. But he will accept
the nomination of his party should it
be rendered him, and moreover he
would not refuse the call of his coun-
trymen were he elected to the posi-
ton. And if his name it submitted
to the electorate of the nation he will
be so triumphantly elected that it will
be repetition of the first election
of Washington.
This feature of the recent story is
told merely for the purpose of pre-
venting a popular uprising for him
which will carry him with such re-
sistless force to the white house
that even the combined efforts of the
money powers of the nation will be
forced to remain silent. They are
largely responsible for the work of
anti-Roosevelt news bureaus which
are sending out the matter which is
quoted with approval by the press
which is in sympathy with the Harri-
mans, the Rogers and the Goulds.

An ABSURDITY.

The announcement made by Con-
gresham Gronna that President
Roosevelt would again be candidate
for the presidency has caused the po-
litical alarmists to repeat the time
worn arguments that he is not in the
race; that his declaration on the night
he was elected to his present term
that he considered his occupancy of
the position during the remainder OF
the Mckinley term as his first term,
was final and conclusive; that he
would not violate the precedent which
has been followed since the estab-
lishment of the government; and fl
nally that he would tour the globe so
soon as he was free from official du-
ties in order that he might receive
the homage of the kings and poten-
tates of earth, and that his home
coming would be so timed that he
would be carried by the wave of per-
sonal enthusiasm it would create into
the nomination six years hence.
The last story is the only one which
deserves any consideration. The others
are familiar to the reading public and
have been ever since the corporations
and Wall street set about the task of
preventing his reelection. Analysed
by what the people know of Roosevelt
it is the most absurd of all the ar
guments advanced against his candi-
dacy.
Theodore Roosevelt is nothing if not
American in every fiber. Not only is
he American but he is intensely DEM
ocratic, and nothing is more foreign
to his nature than an attempt to play
the titled aristocrat with the rulers
of nations. His Americanism would
revolt at the very idea of circling the
earth merely to be feted and courted
as the hero of the United States. He
would rather mingle with crowd of
honest, sturdy citizens of his own
country than be received in state by
the rulers of other countries. If he

What Is q Messenger Boy9
Copyright. NJ. B. CO.


A messenger boy Is about sixty
pounds Of dirt wrapped up in blue
uniform, with bagging knees and
dropping rear. When he is working he
carries kilograms and flowers to brok-
ers and actresses. Have messenger
boys any ambitions? Oh, yes. One
out OF every hundred aspires to be the
president of the Western Union" or
the Postal; the other ninety-nine are
nutty over the cowboy and outlaw
business. Do they run errands? No,
NJ. BIS never run; they walk-most of
them crawl; and a rush message al
ways gets to its destination double
slow, rather than double quick. Why
are they so tough: Because they
bump up against some of the toughest
characters that ever happened. They
are up all night and have no protect
ing hand to guide them through life.
The Gerry society should look into Of
fees and spend less time behind the
scenes. Poor kids!

BEAUTIFYlNG THE CITY.

1t will be matter of pleasure to
the residents of this city to know
there is abundant prospect that during
the present season beautiful business
blocks will take the place of some
of the vacant places in the business
portion of the city which, because of
their present condition, are little short
OF eye-sores to persons possessed of
a normal amount of civic pride. The
erection of these blocks, aside from
the splendid business improvement
which it will make, will serve to beau
tify the city more than almost any,
thing else could do.
But that is not all the identifying
the city needs and which it can have
at the outlay of small amount of
energy and less outlay. of money.
The Evening Times has called atten-
ton to these things before and it is
not amiss to repeat it now. One of
the things which does more to mar
the beauty of a city than anything
else is the accumulation of piles of
rubbish-old wagons, broken machin-
cry, worthless lumber, bricks and
ashes. These are matters of personal
concern and small effort on the part
of the persons responsible for their
accumulation would not only improve
the appearance of their own premises
but would add much to the beauty of
the city in general.
With new pavements which will not
be an abiding place for cart loads of
dirt which can be swept in binding
clouds along the street with every
wind, with park such as the size
and Importance of the city demands,

WHO'S WHO IN GRAND FORKS, NO. 8
W. ]. EDWARDS.

The gentleman whose carica-
ture appears in connection, has
not only reputation in our
state Of North Dakota, but is
we'll known in a considerable
portion of our sister state, Min
nesota. Space is too limited to
detail the many architectural
contracts which have given MIR.
Edwards his present enviable
position as one of the foremost
architects of this section of the
country. Here are a few of the
many structures for which he
drew plans: The new Wilder
school, the new Winship school,
the new Washington school, the
new fire department building,
the detention hospital, and many
beautiful residences in this
city; the First State bank of
East Grand Forks, the w. j.
Mooney State bank Of Langdon,
the First National bank of
Adams. the Merchants National
bank Of Rugby, the Farmers
and Merchants National bank
of Hatton. the First National
bank Of Milton, the First Ma
tional bank of Hampden. the
Citizens bank of Walhalla, the
State bank OF Edinburgh, the
Great Western bank Of Osna-
brock and State banks at Dres-
den, Pisek, Lawton. Upham and
other towns in tho northwest.
Any further testimony as to Mr..
Edwards ability in his profess
sion is unnecessary. 1t might
be we'll to say. however, that he

with cement sidewalks taking the
place of the relics of pioneer days
in the principal residence portions of
the city, it would seem that the pride
of the citizens in the identifying of
the city would induce them SO soon
as the snow of winter has gone, to
remove from their premises every
particle of rubbish which would mar
the beauty of the city.

Good Democratic Law.


The initiative and referendum was
the greatest measure .favorably con-
sidered at the late legislative session.
1t is so because 1t permits the people
to initiate a measure which they de-
sire and the legislature fails to bring
up, and to defeat Objectionable legis-
lation which legislature passed. 1t
is placing the power directly in the
hands of the people. or under their
control or supervision to amend, alter
or annul. 1t is directly in line with
the underlying principles of dem
ocratic form of government. This
measure will be greatly discussed dur
ing the coming two years and meet
with hearty approval from all except
the radical temperance element and
the professional politicians. The great
danger of it's defeat lies in the tenn
perance people. A just consideration
of the vast amount of good such a
law will be to the people may cause
many of them to change their minds.

The first man to introduce canning into the United States was an English. man named Thomas kensett, who learned the business in the old coun- try from Peter Durant, who, in 1910. obtained patent for putting up food in dramatically sealed vessels of glass, pottery or tin. In 1925 Kensett es- tabllsled factory in Maryland. where fruits, vegetables and oysters were plentiful and cheap, and that state continued to be the center of the in- dustry for many years but it did not make much progress until the civil war, when there was great demand? for vegeta bles and fruits in the arm: After the war the invasion of the mountains by miners and the settle ment of the prairies by ranchmen and farmers kept up the demand.-W.
