1t appears that in the enforcement
of the new pure food laws Commits
sioner Laid has gotten into a diff
Guilty with the Uneeda biscuit peo-
pie, and they, through the National
Biscuit company, threaten to with
draw from the state rather than COM
ply with the regulations laid down
by the department. The trouble, it
appears, is due to the demands OF
the pure food commissioner regard
ing weights, and not to any question
as to the purity of the products put
forth by the biscuit people. 1t seems
that no reasonable concern should
complain of any reasonable regula-
lions regarding the labeled weight
of products, and that no rules should
be laid down that are not reasonable.
Doubtless there are some articles in
to which water enters largely and
which are subject to Variable evap
grafton, that it would be difficult to
label with an accurate weight ane
guarantee. But there should be some
fair rules laid down, and until the
complainants can show that the rules
laid down are unfair, we must be
lieye that the commission has no
exceeded their prerogatives or du
ties.

President Roosevelt has been do
ing some strenuous work in prepar-
ing for the speechmaking tour he
is to make, his brief vacation and
the Forthcoming session of congress.
The president has prepared his mes
sage, which it is said will be one
of the most comprehensive ever de-
livered. He will also make known
i'm some of his forthcoming addresses
his policy with regard to the third
term question. This will be of es
pecial interest to the people OF the
country many of whom stand for MS
denomination and believe that if h
is the practically unanimous choice
of the national convention, he canno
do otherwise than accept. The pres
ident may have some notions abou
this matter that have not yet bee
expressed, and for that reason whaa
ever declaration he may make wit
regard to his attitude will be recel1
ed with deep interest.

Admiral Dewey does not take the
same view of the matter of the Phil
ippines that is taken by a great
many of the statesmen of the coun-
try. Admiral Dewey is, of course,
a man of warfare, it was to his ag-
gressiveness and dash that the
islands were taken without the loss
of an American seaman, and his
views of the matter may be some
what preiudiced by his avocation and
his recollection. Nevertheless, he
takes the stand which is sensible and
logical, that if the United States
wants to maintain the open door In
the, east and share in its trade adj
vantage, it must keep the islands
as military and naval base. If the
United States desires it's share of Or
iental trade, if it desires to be an
important factor in the worlds at,
fairs, it must, of course, maintain
an army and navy sufficient for these
| needs, and the possession OF the
islands will give it an important stra
tegic base But to fortify, garrison
and protect this base requires a for
! midable army and navy equipment
! and it is to this that many of the
peaceably inclined statesmen OF the
county object. 1t seems altogether
likely, that, whether or no, the Unit
ed States will retain the Philippines
for the simple. reason that there is
no statesmanlike or honorable way
of getting rid of them. To turn
them back to the Philippines people
would merely mean anarchy, revolu-
ton, internal dissensions and final
ly their possession by some other
power. To, sell them would be to
violate our own standards of JUS
tice. So it seems that to keep them
is the only way out of the difficulty.

Not as an example for the rising
generation, we quote the case of a
Chicago boy who embezzled $500
from his employers, came to North
Dakota to buy farm, was recaptur-
ed and taken back, and now has been
released, his pay has been raised and
he has been given another chance
We presume his release was due TO
the good judgment shown by him In
the investment of the money nc
took, in North Dakota farm. With
so many prosperous persons, whose
prosperity has arisen from an invest
ment in North Dakota land, 1T Is NJ
wonder that the temptation to &c
money SO to invest was strong, ant
/ while we cannot overlook the eyi
deed, we can at least in measur
condone 1t when we consider hoE
1 sensible the lad was in the invesi
ment of his money.

Two men were fined forty dollars
for killing chickens at Fargo. At
first it appeared like an enforcement
of the game laws, but it appears the
the men were harvest hands, too full
of booze, and the chickens were tame
ones in an innocent citizens yard.
So it seems that our tame chickens
at least, are to be protected. More

fowl, also. ,....

IRRIGATION DEVELOPMENT
coIorado's Wonderful Development
as Beet Sugar State.

GBy Chas. r. Saylsr, Special Agt., U. s. Al
The influence of the beet sugar in.
dustry on the development of lrriga-
ton is very marked in the newly de
veloped agricultural sections Of Colo
RADIO, Idaho, Montana and Wy oming.
From the beginning Utah, which
was dependent upon its irrigating
canals, projected extensive systems
for watering the soil in order to pro.
duoe ordinary crops. The same may
be said to some extent of California.
However, even in these states the
sugar factory has had much influence
in promoting irrigation improvement.
Colorado is the real reflector of
the strength and power of sugar pro-
duotion as influencing active devel-
opmsnt of irrigation and the various
productive interests based upon it.
Fifteen years ago irrigation in this
state was of the most primitive
character. Its great, towering,snow-
capped mountains and deep-cut val
leys were not thought Of as store
houses Of wealth dedicated to agri-
culture. The water from the melt
ing SHOWS went leaping down its
gorges and canyons and was carried
awap by the rivers. Agriculturally
a stream Of water was principally
valuable for watering the grazing
stock. The state was known to be
rich in its mineral wealth. and at
tracted population aud capital for
Investment almost solely for this
reason. Its agricultural interests
were slight in comparison. In re-
cent years these have developed with
gigantic strides. They very much
exceed the mineral production Of the
state at the present time. In 1905
the production Of sugar from beets
alone in that state was very nearly
equal in value to the silver produc
tion, and the output of sugar in 1905
leaves it far behind. The increase
in this product has been phenomenal.
It's estimstsd value in 1899 was
$1OO.ee0; in 1905, $15,O0O,0OO.
Ten years ago its irrigation systems
