Any county has right to be proud
of man. who will give his services
to the county first and treat himself
as a secondary consideration. Bel
trami has such a man in A. P. Rit-
chic. He neglected his own farming
interests to the extent of several hum
dred dollars in order that Beltrami
might have the best kind of an ex-
hibit at the state fair next week. A
force Of men were at work the past
week filing the Richie silo and this
were chopped into ensilage and stored
work was abandoned after lao tons
away, In order that the secretary of
the state Fair Exhibit might give
his attention to a matter that con-
cerend the people. Several acres of
uncut corn still remains standing
which should have been cut last week
and stored away with the rest
Richie gets no compensation for his
services but gives it literally.

NEWS FORECAST FOR THE COMING WEEK.

President Taft, in the intervals
between his games of golf and other
outdoor amusements at Beverly, is
expected to put in more or less time
blocking out his speeches on the tar
if, currency reform, reciprocity and
other subjects on which he will speak
on his coming Western trip.
The political campaign in Canada
will be carried on vigorously during
the week. Sir Wilfrid Laurier will
continue his speechmaking tour in
support of reciprocity in Ontario,
with meetings in Windsor, Stratford,
Sudbury and other places. Mr.. Bor-
den, the Opposition leader, will car
ry his campaign into the Maritime
Provinces.

lives and those of other persons, not
at all interested in breaking speed
records, by racing their automobiles
or aeroplanes through space with the
velocity Of hurricane. In their
mad desire to make the utmost speed
automobiles disregard the laws,
take the most desperate risks and
wantonly destroy the lives of other
human beings. The daily list Of ac-
cidents and deaths caused by the
speed mania and recklessness of au-
tomobilists is appalling and the law
seems to be powerless to put stop
to it. 1t is true that occasionally a
few of the offending automobilists
are arrested, but they seem to con-
slider that merely as one of the an
moving features of the sport. The
fine which they have to pay is a triv-
ial matter and they grumble only be-
cause they were checked in their
mad rush. In view of the unreason-
ably large number of speed limit VIC
lations within the limits of Greater
New York the conviction is gaining
ground that a change of the speed
laws is not only desirable but abso-
lutely necessary. The penalty for
such violations should be imprison-
ment, not a mere fine. Every man
who races through the public streets
of a densely populated city is po-
tential slayer and should be pun
ished as such on the same theory that
an armed burglar is considered by
the law a potential murderer.
