~ URING the early years Of the
government, before the capital
was moved TO Washington, the
induction of a president, al
though a ceremony Of great dignity
and solemnity, was very small and
select affair.
In New York for nearly a fortnight
preceding the great day Of April 80,
1850, every tavern and boarding house
had been thronged with visitors. and
on the day before the Inauguration
every private house was filed with
guests from all parts Of the Union.

ceded by the senate and followed BY
representatives, walked George Wash

troops formed a line on each side OF

While we have not read the full
text of Representative Bendixen' s
bill providing for the publication of
the county advertising and commits
sioners' proceedings in all the papers
with a circulation above a certain
limit, we believe that law along
this line would be indorsed by most
taxpayers and would remove an an
NAL nuisance in many counties of
this state. The law would be better
if the compensation was limited to
legal rates and provided for COM
pensation on basis of actual circ u
ton. 1t is not unlikely that these
matters are covered by Mr.. Bendix-
ems bill, but with nearly 1900 bills
clamoring for recognition and only
two or three weeks to consider their
merits, new bills are going to have
hard time getting through.

An Old Story.

The American public is on the
hunt for land, writes Hugh J.
Hughes in the Ortonville Leader.
and in its methods it quiteresembles
bunch of calves let loose onto pas
ture in the spring. One red-muzzled
calf lets out a "Br-r-r-r-rah" that
means Come on fellows, there S
some extra fine picking down here"
and off they go grasping a mouthful
here and another there, never set
Ting down to rest and quiet feeding
until the whole pasture has been
ranged over.
There you have the American, on
ly his red-muzzled calf is the real es-
tate agent whose better grass is
always over in the next county or
the other state, or-if you pull up
stakes and go across the continent
he would have you believe that there

and that all else that is grown is in
proportion.
1t makes no difference, north,
south, east and west are all alike to
the red-muzzled calf. There are
men in almost every neighborhood
in the East who have heard the call
of the red-muzzled calf, and have
travelled twice across the continent
once looking eagerly forward to
new experiment and quick fortune;
once, broken and beaten, thanking
God that there was an old home to
go back to. 1t wasn't always the
fault of the new country that these
men failed, neither was it always
their fault. The man and the new
conditions did not fit. In the old
home success has come to many of
these men. 1t is too bad that final
success has to be won at such a
price.

THE FUTURE OF AMERICA.

Our own great country.
The vast Dominion of Canada to
the north of US, full of new vigor
and life, the elder sister, as Kipling
calls her. of Great Britain's colonies;
to the south of US twenty Latin
American republics, full of fire and
zeal-this is America.
What Of the future?
The United States is the domin at
ing power in America today, and the
problems it has to solve to insure a
future are the problems, IN the main,
that confront the continent. Let US
note briefly some Of these problems.
First, the conservation and devel-
opment of its natural resources.
The conservation movement has not
yet reached the point where it can
fully make evident the necessity of
It's teachings. But of all the many
good things President Roosevelt has
done for this country, none will
bringsmore blessings to the future
than the fight he has made for the
preservation of our natural re-
sources. Mexico and Canada have
already joined hands with the United
States in this movement and have
been holding conservation congress
in Washington. The result of this
agitation will be that the movement
will reach point where the views
of the conservasionist will stick
and the extrayagant waste and

People outside of the twin cities
are taking only languid interest in
the noisy protest made by certain
St. Paul people against the location
of the Armour plant IN the near
proximity of the State Agricultural
college and the state fair grounds.
The charge is made that the Swift
interest, with packing plant at
South St. Paul, is behind the opposi-
ton to the competing plant. The
legislature is not likely to intervene
in this scrap, and the St. Paul re-

The Iowa legislature is wrestling
with the problem of re-submission
of a prohibitory amendment, the
house having passed the measure
while the senate has referred the

have to go on record, whether they
