THE VALUE OF THE
NAVY IN PEACE

we're earthquake last week and the city
of Kingston, its capital, was ruined by
the shake and the subsequent fires.
Over one thousand dead are reported.
At the earliest news of this dire calam-
ity, President Roosevelt telegraphed to
Admiral Davis who was not far away,
to Immediately send two American men,
of-war there and render all the assis-
tance possible. This was done and men
and doctors were sent ashore to assist
the stricken people in caring for the
wounded, recovering and guarding
goods etc.
But the little governor of the island
somehow got it in his head that Admiral
Davis and the Americans were stepping
on his imperial dignity by coming on
shore with arms and helping his people
without his express authority, and in a
fool letter both in composition and
manner, practically ordered the admiral
to get out as he was neither needed or
wanted,-and the admiral has sailed
away.
OF course this incident has no real in
ternational significance whatever. The
governor just represents himself lf-and
that is no enviable light. The English
authorities will probably deal with him
as an imbecile should be dealt with.
But this leads to another thought
that few shore people realize. The
popular idea of the duties and purpose
of war ship is that she is. ship of
war. Primarily this is true, but in fact
the navy has many duties of peaceful
but most important nature, and the
man-of-wa is also inCended to be and
acts as messenger of mercy on many
occasions.
Some of these duties are scientific OBJ
servations of all sorts in charting coast
lines, bays, and the bottom of the ocean
and the winds, tides, currents and aerial
and other phenomena, pertaining to the
navigation of the sea for the benefit of
CQe meFcn6nC mariner.
The navy is also charged with the pro-
lection of American shipping and citi-
zens In foreign countries under all sorts
untoward circumstances, whether it. be
stress of whether, extraordinary calam-
tiles such as earthquakes or hurricanes,
mob violence, or actual war between
other countries.
And the duties of the American navy
are only similar to those Of other nations
|of Christendom. An Englishman in
Morocco or Turkey would have the
right to appeal to an American naval
officer against arbitrary violence, and If
he had good case would receive the
assistance sought land the American
citizen would get the same courtesy and
help from English captain.
E Many good old shipis sent to the
auction block to be sold for junk that
never participated in battle, but if the
record Of her usefulness in deeds Of
peace and help and charity ylYere written
she would not be without glory, and
perhaps would prove to have paid large
dividends On her original cost.
s The greatest glory Of the navy Is. not
in the BATTLES fought, but III the battles
prevented and its helpfulnesa ia times
|of Distress ].

PRIMARY ELECTION
PROVISIONS

PRIMARY ELECTION
PROVISIONS
Already there have been large num-
Der Of primary laws introduced in the
legislature. We presume that each Of
the authors think that they have solved
the many questions that have arisen
during our short acquaintance with the
working of that law in the past, and
just as test, we would respectfully
submit the following as some of the ap-
parently necessary things which must
enter into a perfectly satisfactory pri-
mary law; doing this in as brief space
as possible, and more as suggestions
than exemplifcations:
The perfect primary law must pro-
vide;
IN GENERAL
For parties, factions and individuals
who are non-partisan.
For the organization and government
of parties.
For the absolute annihilation of
'sbosses."
For the organization and government
of factions, also without "bosses.''
For the status of the non-partisan in
dividual voter.
For the equal rights of each party,
faction or individual voter.
SECRET BALLOT
For an absolutely secret ballot.
For the declaration of party prefer
ence to prevent interference and obtain
ing the wrong ballot.
For method by which the sshalf and
half" voter and the independent voter
may participate in primary and may
obtain suitable ballots.
EXPENSE
For some way in which two cam
paigns and two elections shall not cost
more than one.
For the "office to seek the man,
For the nominations to be free to rich
or poor.
For the candidates to pay the extra
expenses.
MAJoRIT1Es AND NOMINATIONS
For all nominations to be made by a
majority vote of the party.
/. For any number of candidates that
wish to run.
For pluralities to nominate in case of
three or more candidates.
For party primary elections. with
fees.) ..
For party committee nominations
without primary election or payment
of fees.
The law to be so simple that the voter
may unlearn the old methods of his
lifetime and absorb the new laws in
about thirty days before election.
1t would also be desirable ptovision
if the primary election and the general
election could somehow be merged into
one, to save time and annoyance. For
example, the Republican voter would
first cast his primary ballot in the box
provided. Then he would pass to the
regular election box and vote for his
choice of Republican nominees as al
ready signifed. But if his choice for
his party nominees did not get a plu-
rality, or any of them, in the primary,
then the judges of the general election
to count his vote for the Democratic
nominees opposite on the ballot-this
being the usual ''intention of the voter," !"
as.shown by past election returns
We think that law with all these
and a few more provisions would suit
almost everybody, because almost every
body would be provided for. Will our
legislators please look them over? Some
of the provisions may seem little con-
Trajectory, but perhaps the legislators
in their wisdom can reconcile them
with the help of the.G Grand Forks Her
aid.

Will Take Son to Old Country.

Wardner, June 13.-Ole Larson, for

mining course of that institution and
after the graduation Mr.. Larson will take
his son travelling through Europe to his
old home in Sweden. The trip across the

the university for several years past, he
being captain last year OF the football
team and also a member OF the All
West football team. His records on
the field in putting the shot and other
tests have won many meets for the
Idaho team who have depended upon
him in many crisis to safely land the
prizes.-Wallace Press.

Base Ball.

The dandiest base ball game Of the
season was pulled off at the local dia-
mond Ks Sunday between the Troy
team and picked nine Of Troy players.
For six innings it was fine game, the
score being about even and each team
working hard for every inch, but in the
seventh the regulars landed for some
fancy drives and before things were
stopped eleven tallies were added to
their side. This cinched the game for
the regulars and the contest ended with
score OF 9 to o.. Kendrick was to
have played but they failed to show up.

The speciman was found at the foot OF
Glass Mountain, Oklahoma, and when

over the body, which now weighs about
500 pounds. In life he was being
