Using department. The, firm alluded
to in the Journal does a big business,

fine business that has paid us well,
and it has all been honorable bust
ness. l$$,
Possibly the fact that the Inter
Ocean has over twice as much legal
advertising as any two of the other
papers in the county does not sit well
with our friend, but he apparently
does not read the handwriting on the
wall that the republicans of Ramsey
county are firing Of helping build up
an opposition paper to lambast them
whenever they come up for Office. This
is one of the things that Is adding
many names to the Inter Ocean list
as we'll as giving us much other bust.

TAKE AN INTEREST.

In the coming city campaign take an
interest. You ask 'In What?" In the
men who are running for aldermen,
for city justice and police magistrate,
for mayor. Find out If they are the
"best" that can be had and when you
find that one is better than another
votefor the fellow to whom you would
want to turn over, your business in
terests, your pocket-book, and ask
home to dinner with your wife and
family. You can exert silent and
salutary influence for good in local
politics if you will take an interest
which means to inquire, to think, and
then to get busy with the ak where
the chopping is good. y. Nv

The Cedar Rapids s(Iowa) Gazette
says that in a single day. thirty-three
emigrant cars passed through Cedar
Rapids, and any day emigrants can
be seen on all the trains going TO the
north and west Railroad officials say
that their homeseekers business this
year is greater than ever before and
judging from this statement it might
be inferred that Iowa and the middle
west would soon be depopu1ated. It is
not Iowa alone however, that Is send

LET US PRAY,

"That great battleship, the North
Dakota, cost us ten million dollars.
This amount of money would supply
twenty-five thousand dollars for an
Agricultural School in every county
In North Dakota.
It would also endow each Of these
colleges with one hundred thousand
dollars. This endowment invested In
North Dakota farm mortgages would
yield each college six thousand dollars
and in North Dakota farm mort
gage there are no microbes
And after all these colleges were
built and endowed there would still
be two million dollars to be invested,
II you please, in matchmaking roads,
traversing every county and connect
ing every college.
Such a road increases the value of
the land, it traverses at least ten per
cent. ~*eSs S$Sss~"s. u }s' - Z
Now, why could not this be done?"
Fra. .y., l.
The United States will some day
own battleship for every state, be-
sides numerous armored cruisers,
coast ships, torpedo boats and the bal
ance Of the many new light weights.
What the cost of the North Dakota"
would do for this state the cost of
half the entire feet would do for every
state in the Union. That enormous
amount of money expended for pur.
poses mentioned in the Fra would
make us new nation; it would be the
biggest economical stride since the
opening of the great west. It is worth
talking about.
ut would make us the most progress
sive farming community in the world.
1t would triple, quadriple, even quin-
triple our land values and then some
1t would make us the envy of the
world, the leader in advanced agrfcul-
tural science. It would put ten men in
our state where one lives today and
the ten would live even better than
the one does now. 1t would send John
my, Ole and Dennis to college without
question, give mother dozen new
dresses, an automobile, a merry widow
hat and everything else her dear heart
wishes. And all through the better
methods of land culture which would

BLOOMS BIG STICK.

In the Journals writeup of the meet
ing Of the editors in this city on Mon
day evening; it takes occasion to put
shadow over one of our legal firms
as well as shake over the head Of the
Inter-Ocean big stick which was dug
up on the occasion Of the meeting.
At the meeting referred to there
were various things discussed, among
which was an agreement relative to
the price for publishing political an
nouncements and various other things.
During this discussion the matter Of
the charge for the publication Of legal
notices came up, and was talked over,
no definite agreement being reached
and the matter went over with several
other things equally important. In
the Journals write-up they treated
as professionally secret the transac-
tons withS the exception Of the one
which would, as the editor supposed
place the shadow of the big stick over
us.
He cited at full length the fact that
this Office was giving a certain law
firm, in this city a discount, on the
legal notices that they publish IN this
paper. This is true, and we will go
further and say that it has never been
secret with us further than sthat we
considered it our business and no ones
else. There was one part of the pro-
ceedings at the meeting however that
the Journal did not publish and that
was during the discussion in which
this paper accused our worthy con-
temporary of giving another law firm
in this city the same rate which was
in force at the time we made the dis
count that is causing our friend SO
much distress, and he denied it. We
have taken the trouble since the pub.
LEGATION Of the Journals article to ask
further, relative to this matter and are
assured by these parties that they did
have such a rate from the Journal, now
Of course this is a question of one
mans word against another and the
persons to whom refer would have
no reason for prevaricating about it.
We were informed at the meeting
Monday night by the Journal editor
that If we did not line up On this
proposition they would "bushwhack
u.s." Maybe that is the game that has
started, and we have been "bush.
whacked.'
We consider advertising of this
character just sas legitimate as any
other and we can see no valid reason
why cuts in this line Of advertising
is any worse than to draw knife
through any other line of the adver

when Roosevelt returns" is com
mon expression these days. He win
receive the greatest ovation ever &C
corded an. American citizen. Such
popularity means something. It is a
tribute to the fellow who believes in
doing things. Official red tape, Gus
tom and even manners did not deter
Roosevelt from exercising common
sense and forceful initiative when the
good Of the country demanded vigor-
GUS and prompt action. He is some
what impulsive and ofttimes aggres-
sively radical but results were at
tanned that set a new pace for the
conduct of public affairs. There is but
one Roosevelt. For Taft to have at
tempted to utilize his methods would
have made him ridiculous because he
would have been q clumsy imitator at
best, and limitations do not go well
with the American people. They want
the real. thing. Taft is probably
doing as well in an attempt to carry,
forward the Roosevelt policies as
could any other American citizen but
he is so different in manner, method
and temperament that his efforts
breed Impotence and stimulate criti-
cism and fault finding. He is paying
the penalty that would have been ex-.
acted of any other man who may have
been chosen to follow the distin-
guished american and popular idol.
Fairbanks could not have carried out
the Roosevelt program because he Is
an entirely different type Of man. La,
Toilette would have made a miserable
failure because he can neither be a
great leader nor hormonize. turbulent
factions. Bryan with all OF his aggres-
sive force, Il not Of the Roosevelt type.
He Is III. class, by himself. And
thus when it comes to the question Of
comparison beWild erment follows In
an effort bo measure the peculiar quail.
ties that have placed Roosevelt upon
the topnaost crest of popular favor.
When he returns to this country after.
a year spent In the African jungles.
his every uttterance win be scrutinized
and his every movement carefully not
ed. r AS a private American citizen
he will have q more dificult position
TO I'LL than if president Of the United,
States. This may seem like a strange
statement but watch and see.
