S. D. TAYLOR FOR GOVERNOR.

1t is now generally conceded that
north Idaho will name the next repub-
lican candidate for governor. The
question before the people is, "Who
is the MANI" Looking over the list
OF available material the one best
qualified is State Auditor S. D. Taylor.
Here is one whose four years of ex-
perience in state affairs has given
him training and an insight into
public business few men possess. AS
state auditor he has been a member
of the most important state boards.
and has a grasp of public affairs nee
essary to the chief executive of the
state. 1t is truly said that our pub
lie officials, elected for two years, get
but started when their term expires,
and this is true in most marked de-
gree of the governor. Whatever mis-
takes charged to Gov. Hawley are to a
great extent due to lack of practical
experience. He went into office with
out the slightest knowledge of the
work he had to perform. Take, for ex-
ample, the matter of full cash value
assessment. State Auditor Taylor
pointed out from the very beginning
the reasons why such a policy would
not work in practice; he opposed it,
He gave reasons why Governor Haw-
ley was making a mistake He said,
and time has shown the soundnes of
Mr. Taylor's position, that the proper
course was to first have the revenue
laws of the state changed by the leg
islature. There is no question about
the intention of Governor Hawley He
wanted to do the Very thing that Mr.
bring about tax reform in the state
The motive back of Governor Hawley
was laudable. But experience shows
that he applied the wrong remedy
The same experience shows the sound
ness of the position of State Auditor
Taylor.
Idaho cannot afford to experiment in |
the matter of governor. In choos-
ing a man for this important place
we should pick one, if possible, fitted |
and qualified to serve the state from
the day he is sworn IN till he steps
down at the end of his term. In
Stephen d. Taylor the state has such
a man.
Mr.. Taylor was a newspaper man
at Boomers Ferry when he was NOM
mated by the republicans and elected
% the office of state auditor So we'll
lid he fill the position that his re-
election was conceded. f. He has made
IN enviable record during his four
ears in this position. 1t has given

APPLE GROWERS

The long looked for Central Agency

GUILTY-LAW OR NO LAW.

Regardless of what the decision of
may be, the fact will remain that eve
ry consideration Of public interest
every principle of economy and good
business was ignored, abused and dis
regarded. 1t may be that the court
will find the law unconstitutional, in
which event the case against Mr.. Gem
mill will fail. But what of the facts,
that are not denied, that the taxpayers
have been compelled to pay two
prices for public work? These facts
will remain. 1t will continue to be
a fact that public funds were squand
cred without a shadow of extenuating
excuse. 1t will remain a fact that AS
SCISSOR Gemmill, without any desire
to either practice economy or serve the
public interest; without taking the
trouble to inquire whether or not the
law was violated, deliberately violated
the law. The facts are that this VIC
lation was disregard of public in
terest, and amounted to rank eXtrav
agance for which there is not a shadow
of excuse. Nor will the people, the
men and women who pay the taxes,
overlook these facts.
In the eyes of the greatest court of
all = the people themselves - James |
Gemmill is today convicted His SEN
tence is political oblivion. 1t has cost |
him whatever confidence the taxpayers |
of Latah county ever had in him.
But the Supreme Court of Idaho has
not yet declared this law unconstitu-
tional. 1t too, in all probability, will
sustain law calculated to protect the
people against just such extravaganza

Tungsten a Remarkable Mineral.

The mineral tungsten (the name
meaning heavy stone) has been known
for many years, but only comparative
ly recently has it become of economic
Importance The most important use,
according to Frank l.. Hess of the
United States geological survey, and
the one which makes tungsten mining
on an extensive scale possible, is as
an alloy for tool steel. Lathes using
tools made from tungsten steel may
be speeded up until the chips leaving
the tool are so hot that they turn
blue, an operation which would ruin
the temper of high-carbon steel. 1t
is stated that about five times as much
can be done with lathes built for such
speed and work as can be done by the
same lathes with carbOn-tools. From
16 to 20 per cent Of tungsten is ordin-
arily used in lathe tools. The melting
point of tungsten is exceedingly high

A Brief History of the SiIo.
(From Idaho Country Life

The preservation of green food in
silos commenced more than one hun
dred years ago. In 1876 Sylnonds
wrote of Italians preserving fresh
leaves for cattle in casks and pits in
the ground. In 1843 Johnston. an
Eng1ishman, published all article on
preserving green clover, grass, or
vetches in pits, basing his state
ments on observations made in Ger
many. Pits were dug 10 to II feet
square and about as deep, the sides
lined with wood, and clay floor
made. The green stuff was placed in
the pit, and plenty of salt scattered
over it from time to time. When the
pit was full, the top was we'll sailed
and close-ftting cover of boards was
placed over it. Dirt to the depth Of a
foot or SO was thrown on the cover
to exclude air. In few days, after
the contents had fernented and set
tied, the cover was removed and more
green fodder was thrown in and the
cover again put on. In commenting
on the contents of such pit Johnston
notes that the grass when thus fer
mented had the appearance of being
boiled, had a sharp acid taste, and
was greedily eaten by cattle.
In England, between 1860 and 1870,
Samuel Jonas stored tares or rye, cut
green and chopped, and fed the fer
mented material on an extensive
scale.
Adolph Reihlen, a sugar manu-
facturer of Stuttgart, Germany, prob
ably stored the first green maize in
pits. He also preserved green beet z
leaves and beet pulp in silos with
much success. He had lived a num-
Der of years in the United States, and
on his return to Germany experiment.
ed with large dent corn, the seed of
which he carried with him from this
country. AS the crop did not always
mature in that climate, the green crop
was pitted after the manner Of the
beet refuse This work was conduct
ed between 1860 and 1870, and the
results were published in the German
and French papers of the time. The
use of the silo was strongly urged up
On the people Of France, and consid-
cradle attention was given the sub
ect Many farmers built silos on
he basis of Reihlen's experience. In
1877, A. Gofart of France, wrote a
book on "Ensilage," which was trans
ated into English and published in
New York year or two later.
The first to prepare silage in the
United States were Manley Miles of
Michigan, who built two silos in 1875;
md Francis Morris of Maryland, who
experiments in this line
n 1876 One of the earliest expert
nenters with silage in the United
states was John NJ McByde, whose
INVESTIGATIONS began at the University
f Tennessee in 1879. Several other
ilos were also built by people in the
astern states within the next few
ears. In 1882, in a report on silage
y the United States Department of
Agriculture, statements were publish
d from 81 persons who had silos; 81
f which were in Atlantic seaboard
tates. No doubt numerous others
7ere in use at that time.
At the present time the silo is
ound on many thousands of farms in
lie United States, especially in dairy
egions, and it may be considered

BEMIDJI LOSES TO CROOKSTON
In Game Called By Darkness, Cham
pionship Laurels Fade.

For the first time in the last two
years the Bemidji High School foot
ball team was defeated by a high
school foe when at Crookston on Sat-
urday afternoon. Crookston won by
score of II to O.. After the game
a reception was given the Bemidji
boys in the Crookston high school.
The team returned to Bemidji at 1870
Sunday morning. Owing to the fact
that preliminary game was played
between the Crookston team and Red
Lake Falls High School, the Crook
ston-Bemidji game did not start un-
til nearly 4:3O and after three-quar-
ters had been played it became so
dark that it was necessary to call
the game. Crookston was strong on
forward passes, and used these plays
to advantage. one touchdown during
the first, half, and another, and a
goal kick in the third quarter COM
pleted the scoring. Bemidji was SER
iously handicapped by the loss Of two
of their strongest men, who were
| unable to keep up in their studies.
BY the loss of this game, Bemidji Also
loses the championship of Northern
Minnesota, which they have held for
the past two years. -

from a St. Paul district, goes fatty

says:
Editor, Bemidji Daily Pioneer, Be-
midi, Mimi.
"Would say that I will favor an
equitable and non-partisan reappor-
tionment at any time. The reason
l voted against the bill at the
last session was that it was a
political reapportionment pure anG
simple and, nothing else. In my
own county the work was very
coarse, the representative districts
were combined in "a way to make il
almost impossible for good honest
democrat to be elected and while the
senatorial districts were not quite sc
bad, still the reapportionment wa:
very unfair, to the democrats. While
l am a democrat I, believe in fairnes:
and no politics should enter into The
new reapportionment and I believe
that both parties should have a fail
representation on the reapportion
ment committee.
