Pulp and Paper in the Senate.

The effort to secure repeal of
the tariff duty on wood pulp and a
reduction of the duty on news print
paper ought not to fail. It has
behind 1t the support of the news
papers of the country; the recon-
mendation of President Roosevelt
to the last Congress, and the favor
able report of the Ways and Means
Committee secured after a most ex-
haustive investigation of the bottom
Facts covering the cost and extent of
raw material in this country and
Canada, the cost of plant and the
cost of labor in both countries. No
pains were spared to get an absO-
lutte knowledge of the paper making
business. The action of the Ways
and Means Committee, it is well
known, was based in investigation
carrying conviction against the pre-
vious bias of its membership.
Under these circumstances the &C
ton of the Senate Finance Commit
tee in it's failure to approve the pulp
and paper schedule of the Payne
bill, leaving it for further consider
alton. Is q matter of surprise. 1t
implies doubt as to the future atti-
tude of Congress which calls for I'M
mediate action upon the part OF
the publishers of newspapers In all
parts of the United States.
Such action is no less in the inter-
est of the newspapers than in the
larger interest of the nation. The
tax, as it stands, is an abuse OF the
taxing power. 1t is tax on know
ledge. 1t offers a bounty to forest
destruction. 1t cannot be defended
as reasonable application OF the
policy of protection to home indus
try. A continuance of the Dingley
duties would be an act Of bad faith
on the part of a party pledge TO
honest revision of the tariff sched-

SPECIAL SCHOOL ELECTION.
An Important Matter for Aberdeen
Should Receive Attention OF All
Friends of Education.

The High school building that the
Board of Education is asking the dis
trict to build is crying need, and
a failure to have the bonds pass at
SATURDAYS election would be a Ca
lamity.
For the past three years the board
has been struggling along in cramp-
ed quarters with the High school de-
partment in a manner that has been
a great hinderance to its efficiency.
It is the hope of the Board of Edu-
cation to rush the construction OF
this building so that it will be ready
for occupancy by January LIST 1917
and when completed will afford re-
lief for the congested condition that
has existed for long time In the
other school buildings.
In voting to retire $4,000 worth
If warrants we are saving an inter-
est charge of per cent or $2,SOO a
wear. and if we are successful IN
securing the loan from the state the
interest will be paid into the school
fund, which will be benefit to the
district. The wisdom of this finan-
cial move needs no argument. Every
citizen who is interested in the well
fare of the city should be interested
in the schools and come out to the
nolls on election day, Saturday.

A SIS Formal Garden.

The charming formal garden, or
indeed any of the stately gardens
which one sees pictured, seem be-
yond the hopes of those who have
little to spend; but George William
Douglas tells in The Youths Com
panion of April 22d how one can
have a formal garden aglow all
summer and far into the fall with
hardy flowers. The particulars for
planning the garden and for choos-
ing the plants are given SO clearly
that any reader can follow them,
adapting them to the spaces at his
disposal.

Lest the Aldrich Tariff bill
should not be sufficient revenue
producer it is asserted that an eff
fort will be made to increase the in
ternal tax on whiskey. But as ex-
perience has shown, the tax on
spirits is as high now as Is COM
patible with an efficient collection
of revenue. To increase the rate oil
tax is to encourage the production OF
moonshine whiskey at the expense OF
the government. When the whls-
key tax was increased to 81 gal
lon whiskey was quoted in the open
market for less than the tax ana
the government revenue from 1t fell
to next to nothing.

fARM land NALufS.

The following from the Grand Forks
News quoted from one of the best
known real estate men of that city. is
much at variance with the statement of
persons before the state board of equal
zation as to the real value OF Red river
lands:
The lands in this section have increas
ed in value more slowly than the lands
outside the valley where less drainage
is necessary but the outside buyers have
at least been struck by the fact that it
is a great dea! easier to get rid of a little
excess of water than it is to scheme and
figure around trying to GET water to
land that lacks only moisture to make it
suitable for good crops.
North Dakota is having Che same
experience thae Illinois and Missouri
have had. The first rush OF the settlers
was always to TIM high land but after
the latter settlements had been made
in gheNallry lands and the farmers had
put ia Il few drainage bitches and had
iad a few lines Of tile to assist these
bitches the valley farms began to turn
out CROPS mat made inc crops from the
lighter prarle SOIL look small 3y com

The wheat is beginning TO come in
from the land in this vicinity and whom
= section Of land whose sale price is only
$4,000 brings $4,000 worth Of wheat in
one year and the other sections and
quarter section farms around it are doing
equally as we'll, it is easy to see that our
lands are going to take a big jump in
value.
Men who bought land this spring for
SO per acre and got q S2t to $50 crop
per acre on it can easily figure whether
they have made a profitable investment
or not. This same land that sold this
spring for $40 per acre with a go crop
on it, on account Of this very crop. has
not been lowered a cent in price by the
removing of the crop.
There is a general expectation that the
value of all the Red river lands will
show an increase in value of from 81
to Sl5 per acre.

The present exhibition Of Alaska's
ton OF the stock criticism current at
the time of the acquisition of Alaska
IN 1867 that the new territory would
prove an endless expense without ade-
quate return. Forty years ago Alaska
was known almost solely to traders,
and these rarely penetrated to the in
terror. In 1907 the United States ship
ped to Alaska nearly $1,000 1000 worth
of goods and received in return $780,
100000 worth of Alaska's products.
consisting mainly of gold, fish and
furs. These figures of one years COM
nlerce are double what they We're in
1903, only four years earlier.
SO far the item of gold has exceeded
in value that of all other Alaskan
products. The copper and coal depos-
its Of the territory await the construc-
ton of railways for their develop
ment. Alaska also has rich deposits
of silver, tin and gypsum and extern
sive forests of timber. Next to gold
the fishery products figure in Alaska's
commerce. The seal and other fur
bearing animals are steadily decreas-
inc, and the present generation may
see the extinction of the once valuable
fur trade, nut other industries will
develop as never before when the
problem Of government for Alaska has
been solved and capital flows in TO
finance them.
