if Door man should take q few
fish for his own use.-it might be
of these same ''undesirables'' The
would be running the risk Of being
subjected to a heavy fine or impris-

doing the business on a large scale

Why this distinction? Why does
not the law ever protect the poor

LET US TRY 1T FOR OURSELVES.

Speaking about progressive ideas,
is it not about time that some
more satisfactory method Of pIac-
ing in nomination city officials be
adopted than the hit or miss caucus
plan? If the legislature refuses to
give US rational law on the sub.
iect, why cannot Willmar people
agree on plan of their own. which
after being in practical operation
would probably hasten the adoption
of primary law for cities of the
state.
Now the Judges Of election are
required to sit at the polling place
for the purpose of registering vot-
ers on the Tuesday preceding elec-
tion from seven o'clock a. m. to 9
O'Clock o. m. Why could not
blank ballot be provided on that
day on which any citizen might
drop in and express his choice for
candidates. Then make it obliga-
tory on the part, of the city clerk
to place the two names having the
largest number of votes for each
position on the official ballot to be
voted on election day. This would
insure that any two sides of differ
ent opinions prevalent would get
representation on the ballot. Then
absolutely prohibit any electioneer-
ing on election day or carraling of
voters by boomers, leaving every
one free to come and vote without
being importuned by anyone.
Some plan like this seems to US
would be great step forward.
If some unofficial trial of this
system were to be tried at Willmar,
it would have to be made in such a
manner that it would not conflict
with the present law. The pri-
mary would have to be held two
weeks before election, and the nom-
inees be placed on the ballot as in
dependent candidates by petition
Some plan could be agreed upon
that would be far more satisfactory
than the old plan. After an honest
trial of such a system we feel GER
tain that our people would not want
to go back to the caucus and that
its practical operation would hasten
the adoption Of progressive law
on the subject.

If there were any doubt as to the
constitutionality or effectiveness Of
the eastman distance tariff bill it
would be set at rest by the desper-

it. The transportation trust has
never been forced to fight harder.
The people will win unless the
brewers and steel trust give aid to

This Is not an ordinary cleo

the Savior himself cannot please

city for there Is not patronage
enough in the office.
Mr.. Seymour can stand this for

rest of us? The saloon people
think they have fooled the church
people again, but l doubt 1t.
The church people know that
two OF our daily papers stood by
Roys, the saloons and the restrict
ed district and in editorials asked
the people to vote against the an
lti-treating ordinance and Mr..
Seymour proudly says from the
platform that he followed their
advice.
These two papers are still cham
lpioning the cause of Roys, and the
saloons and are against the anti
treating ordinance and their can
didate Is Mr.. Seymour. Do you
think that the church people can
not see that?

was going to say, SO would like
to ask a few questions through
your paper.
One speaker said Mr.. Seymour
is rich, he earned his money him
self. A few thousand working
men that find it hard to get work
enough to average from one to
two dollars a day would be glad
to know how he earned 1t.
He says he will make the light
department pay better. How can
he without we, the people, pay
more for lights when we already
pay three prices?
Who pays the taxes that buy
and supports the Fairgrounds he
gets for the children?
Who brought a man here from
Kansas City to tell them how to
improve Point Defiance. Did Mr..
Seymour have anything to do with
that?
He saw the anti-treating In eff
feet in Germany and it was good.
In Tacoma it is a freak and he
does not favor 1t.
Last, but not least, with malice
toward none, what of these wom-
en- who go from house to house
deliberately retailing shameful
and disgusting gossip in order to
besmirch a mans character and
drive him from office, at the same
time unfolding another whose

Arch may triumph in your city,"
II all these stories were true. what
has that to do with the mayors
official acts. Would q recall on
such grounds be legal, according
to the spirit of the charter?
And what of a man that will
encourage such work in his behalf
in order that he may occupy the
position from which they drag the
other by such despicable methods?
1t may be true you cannot make
one worse who is already COW

equally true that no one can

Editor Times: After hearing
Mr.. Seymour give his reasons for
wanting to be mayor, I am con-
vinced that the place for him is
on the play grounds committee or
possibly the park board. If he de-
pended on his shrewdness for his
millions he would have been as
poor as the rest of US. ~
The only charge made against
Mayor Fawcett's at the Klang's

Americans Like Candy

The news which will be contained in the 1910 census report,
that we spend more than IS a year per capita on candy, is not
likely to fill our minds with CONSERVATION. We could build 100
batte-ships in a twelvemonth with the money we spend for sweets.
We much prefer the sweets
Nearly, or quite four times as much candy is produced in the
United States as was made ten years ago. The census figures, when
completed, will bear out this statement. Candy factories have
doubled in number, and then doubled again, within the last decade,
and candy shops are as thick, almost, as liquor saloons.
1t is estimated that the factory value of the candy product OF
the United States for the year 1910 was at least $3.50, 1000. In
Chicago. where vast quantities of candy are manufactured, $780,
0OO,0 900 is reckoned as a woeully low estimate. Chicagos candy
production in 1910 increased so per cent over the output of 1909.
have been unable to obtain any dat. for an accurate estimate
Of the number of pounds of candy Uncle Sam and his family con-
sumo annually. But if we can take the assurance of experts in the
trade that the consumer pays an average price of 20 cents a pound
for candy. then 100000, 900 will purchase $780, 00 900 pounds,
or considerably more than 1000 900 TONS One purchaser alone
(he United States Steel Corporation) bought ten tons of candy last
