The Ward County independent. [volume] (Minot, Ward County, N.D.) 1902-1965, 1910-01-13

Clifford Pinchot, chief Forester, has been
dismissed from service by President Taft for
characterization. Sometime ago the President
lay down the rule that no member of any de-
partment should furnish any member of Con-
gress with any information, cone rning ] is
particular work, without the consent Of the
head of that department.. Pinchot disregard
ed these orders and sent letter to Senator
Dolliver Of Iowa, giving information concern
ing the Ballinger-P inchot controversy, which
created CONSERVATION among the Stalwarts,
and an unusual amount of merriment among
the Insurgents and the Democrats This was
putting it up to the President pretty stron,,
and Pinchot no doubt realized that VIII. n. he
wrote the letter his dismissal would surely
follow. The President grew very wrathy
and notified Pinchot that his services with
the government must cease at once Pinchot
is very warm personal friend of Roosevelt,
and the country is now very anxious to know
how Teddy will take the dismissal of his old
friend. This may result in break between
Roosevelt and Taft. The Republican party is
in danger of the greatest split in the history
of that organ cation. There is no longer any
question but that Taft is standpatter. The
President has also engaged the enmity Of the
insurgents, by holding up the appointments Of
insurgents. 1aft's latest moves have proved
to be very unpopular throughout the North
west. .... 49,. ..f ...

Our old friend Stickley of the Kenmare
Journal grew real wrathy because we told in
= recent Issue Of the Independent, the appar-
ent reason why he changed his attitude so
suddenly concerning Jim Johnson's candidacy
for Congress-. Of course, we knew ''Stick"
it, and yet after his using up more than half
column OF his valuable editorial space, we
are still Qnconvinced. Among other things,
the slippery editor of the Journal says:
Then MI Colco, ds presumption is not we'll found
cd TOR no politician has been whispering in our ear
obese editor of the Independent, we haven't been
liked, nor liable to be. We shot it into Jim
johnson Just because W. A. stickey himself is pretty
we'll satisfied that Jim is not representative Of
North Dakotans for congress, and no amodnt of
BY lot air or excessive maxilary exercise will
change our position
And now, dear Brother, will you answer
one question in your editorial columns next
week, and answer it honestly? You say YOU
have not been fixed nor are you likely to be.
Did you or did you not write letter to Sena-
tor McCumber, my dear Senator" as you
are reported to have called him several times,
sometime during December, and. if so, will
you kindly reproduce the letter for the benefit
Of your readers? And if you did not take the
pains to keep copy of that letter, would you
1uced the letter for you? Now, this letter
may or may not have any connection with the
above, but it would only be fair to reproduce
1t, and let your readers Judge for themselves
We have already received number of
answers from the farmer readers of the Inde-
pendent as to what should be done in Minot
IN 1910 to make this city better from farm
er's viewpoint We are holding them this
week, and want to impress upon the minds of
those who are contemplating contributing to
this very valuable feature, to send in their
answers soon: We want to publish them all
IN one issue if possible, and do not care how
many replies are received. Our idea in seek
ing these answers was not to secure series
of "knocks' on our hustling city, but to Sc
cure, if possible, some valuable hints, from
farmers stand poiut, that will cause our bust
ness men to reflect. and possibly result in an
Improvement in some things, if there is really
any improvement needed. In short, the OBJ
ject is to get the business men and the farm
ers closer together, to get them to understand
each other better. A friendly criticism or
suggestion, we know, will be taken in good
spirit by our business men, and, we trust
that mucn good will result.

The census supervisors in North Dakota
have opene1 their Offices and are engaged in
arranging for the preiminaries for the taking
of the next census. The districts will be
mapped out for the enumeratcrs and the work
OF selecting the enumerators will be COM
menced shortly. The compensation will vary
with the duties assigned and there will be a
number of.persons engaged to do this work.
The government is especially DESTROYS that a
more complete and accurate census than ever
before be made this year. The pay is not
large but it Is work which everyone who un-
dertakes sLo lid determine to do thoroughly
and we'll, md the work coming at this season
of the year will be very acceptable to many
people. It is to be business census and not
a work entered upon for political purposes
President Taft has recently expressed him
self fully upon these lines. -

The large magazines have set up great
cry because the government proposes to en-
deavor to make up portion Of that $17, 0jO,-
900 postal deficit by charging higher rates of
postage to magazines. 1t is fact that mags-
zines, on the average, are carried many times
farther than newspapers, hence it would be
no more than right for them to pay more pro-
portionately. 1t costs about cent and a half
an issue for the postage on magazine, say
the size of Everybody's The magazines fear
that If the rate on this class of second-class
matter is raised much, many of them will be
forced to- suspend business Have no fear.
When the Saturday Evening Post gets three
THOUSAND dollars page for advertising, aud
the Ladies' Home Journal five thousand del
lars page, there is not much danger of fore
ing those pc; iodicals into bankruptcy. True,
the subscription price might have to be raised
a trihe, as we'll as the advertising rates, but
this would be one ~ay of making up the de-
ficit. The Saturday Evening Post actually
sheds tears to think there might be proba-
biiity of an increased postage rate, when
newspapers are carried frye in the counties
in which they are published. ,-.1
