Owosso women know how the aches

BY ROY j. BUELL..

FAME lost and found. That in
n word is practically the ex-
~ perience which Michigan has
passed through within the past
fifteen years.
This fame rested in no less pro-
duct than the apple-that luscious,
excellently favored fruit from her
orchards.
The story Of this departed and re-
turned fame would be one long and
interesting account, 100 long for the
telling in detail in the space here al
lotted. Suffice to say That our fathers
and grandfathers, who had hand in
clearing up the lands, realized that
the soil contained those ingredients
so essential in giving to the apple that
delicate flavor, without which it be-
comes but a tasteless thing. So they
set out orchards in abundance. Not
large orchards. however, for in those
days it was only necessary that one
prepare to supply ones household
reeds, including, too, OF course, the
filling of the proverbial cider barrel.
There was a small market in the
cities, to be sure, but transportation,
packing and storage facilities would
not permit of its being supplied. But

ATTEMPTED CHANGE OF ISSUE

The republican campaign text book
for the present congressional campaign
tries to change the paramount tariff
issue to the general record of the re-
publican party during the 61st Con-
gress and since the close of the Civil
War. AS the voters have determined
that the enormous increase in the cost
of living is the real issue with them,
and generally believe that republican
legislation has produced high prices,
the attempted change of issues is not
to be wondered at. Not that the cam
paign book makers promise to further
reform the tariff, except as far as the
letter of the president explains his plan
for %plecemeal revision of some of the
schedules, for the Aldrich-Payne tariff
law is approved as "the best tariff law
ever enacted by the republican party"
What the republicans will have TO
explain on the stump, is the lack of
legislation that would have reduced
high prices, and the fact that the stand
patters, Aldrich, Cannon, Payne, Sher-
man and those who voted with them.
are conducting the campaign, and that
not one insurgent republican who voted
to reduce the tariff law has been called
to take part in the campaign.

The Fargo Forum. generally digniied
in its treatment of public questions,
completely sidesteps when it assails
Gov. Burke for not exercising his veto
perogative against the legislative meas
ure increasing the salaries of certain
state officers. 1t attempts to make it
appear that the governor, who is a candi-
date for reelection approved the
Measure because it gave him a greater
remuneration than he had been receiv-
ing for performing his official duties
and that in doing so be IN some manner
injured the people of the state. The
Forum is opposed to Gov. Burke because
he is the candidate for governor on the
democratic ticket. 1t is this fact which
inspires the, attack and not because the
state has suffered injury. The measure
was enacted by a republican legislature,
yet the Forum is strangely silent on this
important feature of the case. The
Forum should be and is too big to
indulge in this kind of politics.

Is it supposable that the stalwarts
would have failed to bring their candi-
date for governor to the front at the
Roosevelt meeting IN Fargo had he been
a man of Burke's ability? The chair
man did not want Burke to talk and G.
A. johnson was in the crowd. Why was
he not called upon? But then, Burke is
a man of whom sven his most bitter
enemies feel proud to say to the visiting
listener shat is the governor of our
state" The people will have a chance
this year to say whether they prefer
this man, who is admired for his ability
and independence or the man whom it
was generally conceded was selected as
a candidate because he would do as be
was told.-Bathgate Pink Paper.

PUBLIC f~XTRAVAGANCE.

j. j. Hill of st. Paul spoke on the
subject of "soil, crops and clothing at
the conservation convention. He strong
ly opposed the extravaganza of our
government and the wasteful expendi-
lures of money by the red tape methods
and absolute manner of ~transacting the
public business, He said the country is
spending too much money on war ships
and On other departments that bring in
no returns to the people who pay taxes,
but are only burdens. lie said among
other things:
"Our government, federal, state and
municipal, is spending too much money.
Rather it is not being spent in the right
direction. Toe much money is being
diverted from the channel of increasing
production and is being applied to things
which bring no tangible returns: II
might illustrate this. If I own one
hundred and sixty acres of land and let
it lie idle my investment is wasted. If [
till the place, however, and make it
productive, and then I am really assist
ing in the conservation of capital. "The
same might be said in application to our
government. We are spending the
money in improvements that bring no
actual return. For one thing, we are
putting vast amounts into warships,
whore 1T appears to nae, we might as we'll
be conserving our capital by investing
it along productive lines"

Some Fighting For Soldiers.

1t is a notorious fact that soldiers are
inclined to desert and do desert the
service in considerable numbers in
times Of peace simply because they
grow weary Of the dull routine. Most
Of our soldiers are young fellows, eager
for excitement. 1t would be against
the international proprieties to get up
a war merely for the sake of giving
these active young fellows some fight
ing to do. but the Western Pine Man
u]facturers' association has come to the
aid of the government with a proposal
which. if carried out. seems likely to
provide the troops with enough fight
ing to ward off their ennui and keep
them in the ranks.
This association has appealed to
President Taft and Secretary of War
Dickinson to station government troops
in the national forest reservations from
May 1 to Sept. 80 each year to serve
as forest fire fighters. 1t is pointed
out that 1.-The fire losses in the forests
of the western states during the last
sixty days will amount to at least
$15O,O0O,OOO." with the likelihood that
additional millions of dollars worth OF
timber will be destroyed by fire in Au-
gust and September unless heavy rains
come before the normal end of the dry
season.
If the government by putting it's idle
and more or less useless soldiers upon
the firing line in the forests can save
$15O,OOO,0C0 worth of timber in a sin
gle season. would it not be worth
while? That sum of money will build
fifteen big battleships. and if the navy
must have additional ships why not
have the army save the money with
which to build them? Besides, forest
fire fighting would be fun for the SOL
diers and would reduce the number Of
assertions by removing the cause.

By a glance at the tickets for county
office in Cavalier county, we notice that
Judge Dorval has opposition again this
year in his candidacy for reelection as
county judge. This is one of the two
positions for county Office where "party''
should be eliminated and only the "man'
considered in casting your vote. 1t is a
strictly non-partizan position and such
counties as Pembina, Walsh, Grand
Forks and Cass, are realizing this and
continuing a good man for the position
in office regardless of the length of pre-
vious servitude, without opposition.
Cavalier county should fall into line.
Judge Dorval is an old office holder: he
has been county judge in that county
for over twenty years; and that is the
only thing we ever hear his bitterest
enemy urge against his continued
service. A county judge has a position
that means much to the widow and
fatherless and when a man is found
capable and honest enough to serve
with satisfaction and honor for twenty
years it is poor policy to turn him down.
We believe that tax payers in Cavalier
county will look at the matter in that
light and turn down" the chronic Office
seeker rather than the Office holder

might be interesting to such person;

The investigating board that has
been looking into the recent explosion
on the battleship North Dakota finds
that it was due to faulty design and
faulty installation of the oil-burning
apparatus. Says the Associated Press
report: "The plant is of European de-
sign and was installed by the contractors
who built the North Dakota. AS they
guaranteed the performance of the
machinery for six months, it is believed
that they must make good the damage"
OF course that means property damage,
since it is the custom to think first of
property considerations, and hardly at
all of damage to human lives and limbs
and to the hearts of those who love the
victims. The contractors, clearly, "must
make good the damage due to purely
human and purely preventable negli-
gence. Just how will they go about it?
They car repair the damaged machinery
easily enough. But what about the
men who we're killed and injured? The
contractors may pay the hospital ex-
penses of the eleven who were hurt,
and they may even compensate them by
paying damages. But what can they
do about the three who were killed?
How a they make good that damage?
II they had performed their work
properly in the first place, there would
have been no damage to make
good, either to property or human
life.
