Success Magazine IS puDllcalioh of exceptionally high class, and one that is making a, wonderfully intel ligent and strong fight for the peo- pie and against those men and cliques that are largely in control of our high offices and are using their position in favor of the few against the many. This magazine IS non- political, and recognizes that those who seek to dominate care nothing for political parties, simply using one or the sother as machine through which to work, the one depending wholly on which has the most men that can be controlled.
 In keeping in touch with the pulse of the political sentiment, Success has what it terms it's Auxiliary Edl- torial Board of Life Subscribers, now numbering 22,500, and being of all party faiths and living in all sections of the United States. A test was made of the efficacy of this board in gauging political strength before the last election, and this test was remarkable in it's accuracy. This gives added weight to the re- suit of recent straw vote" taken to establish tEe standing in the regard of the people of President Taft and Speaker Cannon and Sena- tor Aldrich. This vote" was taken after the return of the President from his trip around the country, during which he, among other things had hard words to say against those who opposed the work of Cannon, Taft and others in the tariff fight, and placed his stamp of approval on these last named, as well as Secre- tary Ballinger, who was accused of helping plunder the public of its rights. This Journey and it's effect may fairly be considered as having much to do with the adverse senti- ment shown.
 On November 9 Success mailed to it's life subscribers a letter and a ballot containing ten questions de- signed to feel the public pulse on the matter of the popularity of President Taft, the opinion of the new tariff bill and the political standing of Aldrich and Cannon.
 Here are the questions and brief summary of the results:
 Question |. Do you believe that
 your vote for presidential caudi-
 date last November was wisely
 cast?
 Of the Republicans answering thls question; the vote is about eleven to one in the affirmative, 5,728 an- swering "Yes" and $40 "No." Of the Democrats, 2.323 answered "Yes" and 206 No"
 Question H. Are you satisfied
 with the first nine months exper-
 fence in the administration Of
 President Taft?
 Of the Republicans answering this question, 3,092 say "Yes" and 2,49O No" Of the Democrats, 800 say "Yes" and 2.053 say No"
 Question III. Do you approve
 the position of Senator Aldrich in
 the recent tariff legislation?
 The Republican vote on this ques- ton was almost unanimously in the

negative: only 517 voting Yes, while 6,3l2 vote "No." Only 40 Democrats, of whom 22 are in the South, approve MT. Aldrich.
 Question ". Do yon approve
 the position of Speaker Cannon in
 the receut tariff legislation?
 Just little more emphatic is the condemnation of Mir. Cannon; 490 Republican and 40 Democratic votes in the entire country being cast in the affirmative, while 6,485 Repub- licans and 2,447 Democrats are re- corded in the negative. It is signifi- cant that the condemnation of the positions of both Mir. Aldrich and MT. Cannon in the tariff legislation is almost as pronounced in the Att lantic and Pacific Coast states as in the Central West, and there is every evidence, not only in the votes on those two questions. but in the gen. eral vote by districts, that both Can. nonism" and "Aldrichism" are national and general issues and do not represent merely local insur- gency.
 Question V. Do you approve
 the position of President Taft in
 the recent tariff-legislation?
 Here the vote is much more evenly divided. 2,102 Republicans voting "Yes" and 3,5S0 "No.'
 Question VI. Is it your desire
 that President Taft shoul support
 and cooperate with Senator AL
 drich and Speaker Cannon in the
 general public policies which they
 represent?
 From all sections of the country comes a laundering No" in answer to this question, only 6S9 Republican votes being castin the affirmative as against 6,293 in the negative. In or der to make quite clear what the feeling of our people is, we appended Question 2 as negative, reading Do you desire that he should op- pose them" ?"-and back to this ques- ton came an equally strong and gen- eral Yes" 6,2l9 votes being in the affirmative, as against 461 votes in the negative.
 Of our subscribers who count themselves as Independents, Prohi- bitionists, etc, POI approve the Presidents administration to date, while 994 do not approve; 130 ap- prove his position on the tariff and 1,088 do not; and 45 desire him to cooperate with Aldrich and Cannon while 1864 do not.
 In addition to the general ques- tions set forth above, we asked three others of each subscriber. They re late to the sentiment in the Republi- can party for or against the ''insur. gents" and the answers show that the majority favor those who fought the Republican machine and would vote for reputable man of the opposite party in preference to 8 supporter of Cannon and Aldrich and their polices.
 The Star has complete summary of the result of this test, sent by the courtsey of Success. It is toe lengthy to republish. but can be seen by any who cares to come and ] look it over.

lnAIN rUR DOGS.

Made Up of Coaches Especially Equip
ped With Kennels.
A new feature in special railroad
trains was the experiment recently
made on the line between London and
Manchester at the time of the great
dog show in the latter city. This train
was made up of coaches especially
equipped with kennels, so that the
valuable CANNES might enjoy all the
comforts of home and not become un-
duly excited and get out of condition
during their enforced Journey. The
animals were provided with straw
mattress and pannikin Of water,
while they Travelled in vans that were
steam heated.
The through trip from London to
Manchester lasted FIVE hours, and a
few stops were made at way stations,
where other dogs bound for the show
were taken aboard. A light luncheon
was served en- route, which consisted
principally of dog biscuit, with slight
portions Of cooked meat scraps and
bread. Filtered water only was al
lowed these pampered pets.
Accommodations for the owners OF
the dogs were arranged for on thu
train. and they were allowed to wall
through the kennel cars and see tha
their prospective prize winners were
entirely comfortable. This new system
Of conveyance is greatly appreciated b.
fanciers, who frequently have hesi
tated to send valuable but delicate
dog any considerable distance by raj
under the ordinary conditions Of trans
portation. -Harper's Weekly.

STREET RAILWAY SCHOOL.
Institution Planned For Training
Young Men to BE Managers.

Young Men to BE Managers.
With the object of raising the stand
ard of street railway employees Oren
Root, Jr. general manager of the Met.
ropolitan Street Railway company in
New York, has perfected plans for the
establishment of Il training school In
which graduates of colleges and scien.
tific schools will be fitted for the tech.
nicai and practical work of the street
car business. The company will de-
fray all the expenses Of the school and
will pay the students living wages
during the course of two years. Dur
ing the first year the student will be
paid $15 week. The second year
men will receive $40 week. To give
him general idea of the street rail-
way business he will be assigned to
duty In the maintenance of way, the
electrical. the equipment and the trans
portation departments, spending three
months In each department.
"It is my intention" said Mr.. Root,
ito establish practical training school
for young men. particularly graduates
OI ulSH SCHOoiS, udhudi tlaAiiihe
schools, colleges and universities, who
have had more or less technical train
ing and who intend to enter upon the
vocation Of operating street railroads,
II is the aim to make the conditions
advantageous to the young man who
has an inclination to enter upon work
of this character.
"Such a man under the proposed
plan will have an opportunity to ac-
| quaint himself with the details of the
work, while receiving at the same
time salary which will. with strict
economy. enable him to be self sup
| porting. He may thus determine fol
| himself whether he Is fitted and has Q
liking for employment of this charac
ter. On the other hand, the Metro
politan Street Railway company will
profit by the experiment In that i
will be possible TO test the capacity

purchased 200 acres of land some
three miles northwest of Chisholm
and will at once commence the work
OF stablishing powder plant of
sufficient capacity to care for the
needs of the range, it being antici-

some 400 men. The work of clear
ing the site is already under way,
but it will be several months before
buildings and machinery will be in
readiness. A spur of the Duluth,

0ird and Insect Charts for the Public
Schools.

The State Entomologist is prepar.
ing for distribution to the public
schools of Minnesota colored chart
of insect pests together with illus
trations of some beneficial insects
and useful birds. Over nine thous.
and of these charts will be made,
and it is expected they will be ready
for delivery late next winter or in
the spring.
Any school in Minnesota can
have one of these charts forthe ask
ing, the request to be made throug h
the county superintendent. The
funds for these charts were provid
ed by the last legislature.
Such insects as the gypsy moth,
which there is reason to believe
may ultimately get into Minnesota.
and the browntail moth, which have
caused thousands of dollars of loss
in New England, are shown in COL
or, "a we'll as the san Jose scale,
which in time, unless preventive
measures are taken. may become
; one of the pests G! our farmers.
Many others of our common pests
will be shown by beautiful draw

ed
1t il believed that pupils in our
schools can ably serve the cause OF
good fruit growing and good crop
growing in Minnesota by becoming
familiar with the appearance of
some of these insects and being
able to recognize them when seen.
1t is in this way that these charts
may become of great practical util.
ity.
Some of our insect-eatiug birds,
which help the farmer and fruit
grower by consuming insect pests,
will also be shown.
