WRIGHT
MAY PAY
PENALTY
For Baking on HamOn for
Mayor Confirmation
Held Up

washington. D. c.. May 2O.-Because
he kicked over the traces and refused
to support Jake Hamon for mayor in
the city election at Lawton. the
chances are that Frank Wright will
never be postmaster OF that place,
though he has been nominated for the
Job by the President and his confir-
nation is now pending in the senate.
1t has been generally expected that
when the proper time came the ad-
ministration would bring pressure to
bear on the senate that would result
in the half dozen postoffice appointes
in Oklahoma whose confirmation has
been held up. getting through, and
this may still be true Of some Of them,
but it is very doubtful If Wright's con.
firmation will be among them.
It is understood that Wright's oppo
sition to Hamon was open, and the
further fact that Hamon was defeated
by less than twenty votes, makes th'
case a still more glaring one. The
Oklahoma Republicans in congress
could have caused the administration
to put pressure enough on to fore'
these confirmations in the senate, ur
less the opposing senators could shoy
conclusive evidence Of unfitness, bu
now the question is, will they do thi
in Wrights case. or will they let hi
appointment slide. just as an objeo
lesson of what backsliding or boltin
Republicans nay expect in the future

Wright may be able to justify hi
course before Postmaster Genera
Hitchcock. who when he was mana'

SUCKERS DECLARED LEGAL|
Supreme Court Holds Voter Has
Right to Place them on Ballot.
Decision Reached in Contest over
Sheriff's Office in Yellow Medi-
cine County.

The supreme court holds that a
voter has right to use "stickers'' in
casting his ballot for candidate for
Office whose name does not appear on
the printed sheet.
The question arose in the appeal of
g. o. Homme, of yellow Medicine
county. from the decision of the dis
trict court of that county which de-
clared Oscar G. Snortum elected
sheriff, as the result of last fall's
election.
Homme and Snortum were candi-
dates for the Republican nomination
for sheriff and Snortum won by a
small majority. At the election
Homme supplied his followers with
'stickers, y which they placed in the
blank space opposite the title Of
sheriff. The return of the county
canvassing board declared Homme
elected, but the lower court held that
the 'stickers' we're not included in
the law which provides that a voter
may write any name he chooses in the
blank spaces on the ballot
The supreme court says that it is a
constitutional right which every voter
has to vote for whom he pleases, and
that the statute must be literally con-
strued. The conclusion is that the
word 'swrite" includes any mode of
writing words or letters.

A Lyric on the Hoe.

Kansas City Star: The hog may
not figure in the popular mind as an
inviting subject for a rhapsody, but
when you come to consider his econ
ionic relationship to the concerns of
humanity, where will you find another
animal with more points in his favor
than just the hog, with all his bristles
and his untidy habits?
The hog comes into this world, al
most without exception, in a '.gre-
garious' form. One never hears of a
little pig or a mature hog being
''spoiled" because he is the only
member of the family. There are
always others and plenty of them
to share the favors that come to the
hog household. It is quite usual for
the family to number eight or ten,
and a litter of twelve is not phe-
nomenal
Well, within less than year of the
birth of a litter of pigs they are full
grown hogs, carrying several hundred
of pounds of the best meat that ever
came from the hand of nature.
Again, each several hog when he
goes to market carries in his corpu-
lent carcass about ten bushels of corn.
If you have given the subject the at
tention 1t calls for, you can see how
much this saves the honest farmer in
the way of freight charges in the
transportation of corn.
But the hogs usefulness is by no
means limited to his life. His real
virtues only begin to shine forth after
he is dead.
To the hog belongs the high
privilege and the honor of furnishing
the poor man his food. Not that the
food is poor, mind you-and not that
it is always cheap. But it is more
readily produced and more plentiful
than any other sort of animal nourish-
ment, and for quality it challenges
competition and is without rival.
But it is when it comes to 'sinfnite
variety" that the hog shines as food
producer. He is good to eat Sin any
spot or place. From his head to his
tail he is a compendium of delicious
parts. AS the orators say, thine
would fail US to mention them all. -
But the quota is full and generous,
and of the highest excellence. Not to
go any farther, the hog may securely
rest his claims to Importance and to
usefulness on ham, bacon, sidemeat
| and lard alone. It is really not
necessary to digress as far as sausage,
scrapple, head cheese, pudding and
the like, although all of these are
F! pleasant objects of contemplation.

Minnesota's Progress.

Gov. johnson in his message to the
legislature gave some startling figures
as to the progress made by Minnesota
during the fifty years that have elapsed
since its admission to statehood.
For example, he told us how from
handful of territorial pioneers, we
have become people 100000 strong,
outnumbering the combined popula-
ton of Maine, Vermont, New Hamp-
shire and Rhode Island. Tenth among
the states IN area, we have become
ninth in estimated wealth with a CEN
sus total Of s3,343, 900, 900. or 81, 1928
per capita, which is one-half larger
than the United States per capita
average, and thrice that of Europe.
Although only one-half of our agri-
cultural land is under cultivation, we
already rank fourth among the states
in agricultural production, and our
100000 farmers till nearly $4,000, 900
acres, valued with structures, live.
stock and machinery, at 81, O00, OOO, 900,
which yielded the year just closed a
product worth $3.50, 1000, 600, or over
500 for each man, woman and child
within our domain. AS the first bread
and butter state in the world, Mime
sofa produces a barrel of high-grade
-four and fve-pound jar of gilt
edged creamery butter for every Amer
lean family, and surplus for export.
Our wheat crop and -four output have
led the world for many years, and our
farmers cooperative creameries, now
over 800 in number with a 100, 600, 600
pound product, have won more nation
al and international prize banners and
medals during the past twenty years
than those of any other state or ma
ton. AS manufacturing state Min
nesota in 1905 turned out mill and
j factory product valued at $780,, OOO, 900,
which was four times that of twenty
five years before and equalled by that
of only a dozen other states. In bank
ing resources, Minnesota in twenty
five years has grown eight-fold, and
today we have 900 financial institu-
tons with $500, 600, 600 of total resour-
ces, all under state and national ex-
animation and supervision. Unknown
in the iron world until 1884, Minnesota
has contributed to the worlds wealth
in twenty years over 5000, ZOO, 900 worth
of iron ore, and now has over 900, :
O00, 600 tons in sight, with new dis
coveries every season.

they constitute parade when walking

Millions Of Queens.

The papers have made much of the
fact that Queen Helene, of Italy, went
to Messina, and took a personal
interest in the earthquake sufferers.
"NobIe woman!' the newspapers
are saying.
AS though there were no other noble
women.
The finest thing in humanity is the
patience, self-sacrifice and tenderness
of women. You see examples of it in
every neighborhood, all over the
world, among the poor, among the
well-to-do; among all classes. Queen
Helene is fine woman, no doubt, but
she does not furnish better example
of womanly tenderness than may be
found in your own neighborhood; in
your own household.
We once knew a woman who had a
family of bright children. Then came
an unfortunate one; boy who never
learned to talk; who was a constant
care. The mother cared for this child
day and night for more than thirty
years. When she died, her last act
was to call members of her family to
her bedside, and ask them to care for
the unfortunate boy. Then the only
daughter assumed the burden, endured
it as faithfully as her mother had
done, until her charge died at the age
of forty.
Instances of the gentleness and pa
thence of women are as numerous, al
most, as the roster of the gentler por-
ton of the human race. No need to
go to Italy or to a queen to find
self-sacrifcing action on the part of a
woman. Women have their faults,
but their faults do not refer to lack of
interest in those in distress. Women
are born with tenderness in their
hearts, and with ability to show it
willingly and promptly. Atkinson
Globe.

How to Treat a Man.
By a Horse.

When man drops from sheer ex-
baustion or illness promptly sieze an
end board or a cart stake and pound
him on the head and on the ribs. If
this does not fully recuperate him,
kick him violently in the stomach.
This treatment will restore him if per-
sistently adhered in.
IF man finds his load too heavy,
and feels that it will seriously strain
him to proceed. kick off a fence board
and knock him down and then hammer
him thoroughly. This will give him
renewed energy and he will make no
more fuss. But do not on any account
reduce the load.
# a man refuses to drink when you
give him water, do not give him any
water for two days. That will ''teach
him. to be thirsty at any time you
find it convenient to attend to him. It
is a good plan to ply the whip fre-
quently on man who is at work. No
matter if he is doing his hest hit him
now and then on general principles, !"
and to prevent him taking any COM
fort. If his load is not heavy, oblige
him to go much faster to make
up for it.
Tie your mans head back in an I'M
natural position, with his eyes toward
the sun. This will give him q fine
appearance and prevent stumb-
ling In winter remove his clothing
ITO prevent his taking cold. !" He
will also dry quicker when you over
work him. Men thus treated are
ssmuch healthier than when allowed
winter clothing w. r. Gilbert.

The County Assessor Plan.

Governor Johnson's suggestion for
a change in the present method of
assessing the taxable property of the
state will surely meet with the ap-
proval of everyone who is not en-
deavoring to dodge his fair share of
taxes. He says:
"Under the present system the town
ship treasurer does his work in thirty
days. The limited time and the
meager compensation make it entirely
impossible for him to make anything
:approximating scientific valuation.
A county assessor continuously in
service would remedy in large part
this very great defect in our assess
ment system, and, with a tenure of
office covering four years, could do
much toward realizing something of
equalization, which would rebound to
sEhe public veal. The Office should be
under the direction or supervision of
the tax commission, so that some
general plan might be worked out
which would be uniform throughout
Ghe state.'
In the larger counties, such as
!Hennepin, Ramsey and St. Louis, the
governor would have county tax
commission, as best suited to increase
the efficiency of the service.
Let no Steel Corporation stock
S1older, says the Saturday Evening
Post, lose heart over Mr.. Schwab's ex-
position before the house Ways and
Means committee of the increased cost
of making rails. Incorporation owns
all the processes of production. If it
pays more for pig iron, the payment
goes to itself. AS matter of fact,
the proportion of manufacturing cost
and operating expenses to gross re-
.ceipts was almost the same in 1907
the year of highest prices for materials
and labor-as in 1902, and the net
operating profit per ton of steel pro-
-duced was almost the same.
Nor need any body else share Chair
man Gary's fear that reduction of
steel duties would necessitate re-
duction of wages since the duty ex-
ceeds the whole labor cost. In the
six years for which complete reports
are at hand the operating profits OF
the corporation have exceeded its tc-
tai payments for wages and salaries
by more than hundred million dol
lars. After paying all expenses, tax
es, interest and seven per cent on the
preferred stock, the residue-a ccruing
mainly to the benefit of the common
stock, which was all water-has
amounted to almost half as much as
the total payments for wages and sal
aries.
The corporation has been running a
little less than eight years, during
which period its profits from opera.
ton have amounted to eleven hundred
million dollars. This sum includes a
large margin which might very prop.
erly and justly be trenched upon be-
fore anything was said about reducing
wages.
