DR.. HdrtWig Resigned.

DR.. A. H. Hartwig who was appointed
by Gov. McGOverD as state veterinarian
January 19, 1911, has resigned for reasons
briefly stated in the following explana-
ton:
"There was meeting OF the livestock
board Saturday in the Office OF the gov
ernor but no hearing of any kind had on
any charges against me. Certain mem
bers of the livestock board had made
complaint to the governor which indi-
Gated clearly an intention on their part
to make my future work in my Office as
disagreeable and as burdensOme as was
within their power. These complaints
were withdrawn before my resignation
The livestock board further showed their
animus toward me by voting, against
my previously repeated protest, to rein
state as official tuberculin testers, all
persons sanctioned by committee of
three, being two members of the board
and it's clerk, none of whom had ever
had, to any extent, experience in admin
istering the test or in making the neces-
sary clinical examination. I, as state
veterinarian was given no recognition
on that examining committee, showing
a deliberate attempt of the board to dis
credit me and the work for which I
would be held responsible by the people,
| refused to tolerate these conditions
and resigned"
The doctor who is an ardent refOrmer
endeayored to do his duty and work for
the best interest of those interested in
the livestock in the state, but he made a
mistake, he should have permitted the
Sanitary BOARD to run his office, draw
his salary while he kept still and yelled
for reform.

1t Looks Very Good.

Reports to the federal Depart
ment of Agriculture show that the
United States imported during the
year ending June 80, 1910, $685.
600, 900 worth of farm and forest
products, an increase of $40, ooo,-
900 over the previous year.. and an
expectation of 1891 900, 900 of the
same products during the same
period of time, a balance to our
credit of S2o3, 900, 900 which is a
very good showing, the only ques-
ton being, were the prices of our
exported products as high as those
charged the home consumers !?
While the balance of trade is in
our favor, it is barely possible
that it is made up in large degree
by overcharges to our home con-
sumers, a condition viii Oh has pre-
vailed many years under prohibi-
tive tariff.

IL O'Clock CLOSING.

The Leader is informed that the city
council will soon grapple again with
II o'clock saloon closing proposition,
as new ordinance will be introduced
and the members given another oppor-
tunity to ''turn it down." or run away
from it. If the council again refuses
to pass the ordinance, it is said that a
petition will be the next move, that the
question may be submitted to vote of
the people. In view of few disgrace
full things that have happened recently,
it is not to be wondered at that this
agitation is being revived. The dis
graceful things spoken of would not
have happened. If there is any argu-
ment tending to show any advantage or
good of the all-night saloon, the Leader
has failed to hear it and challenges any
living person to produce any argument
showing that all-night saloons are a
benefit in the slightest degree.

of cost. At the present time with
out another cent in cash having
been added, the capitalization is
$4,000, 900 on which the corpora
ton is paying IS per cent. divi-
dends. In other words, the origi-
nal owners of the stock have seen
their investment increase five fold
and on the fictitious increase are
receiving IS per cent. a year. This
is equivalent, for all the original
investors of II per cent. on watered
stock. AS the tariff on sugar of
the quality produced in the Hawai-
ian island is about two cents per
pound, the sugar producers there
will make a good thing if they only
receive the price of the tariff, all
above that is a steal from the con-
sumers In the United States.

Frank N. Eaton Passes Away

A feeling of sadness was almost univer-
sally felt in the city Monday morning
when it was learned by telegram that
Frank M. Eaton had passed away at his
home at Eugene Oregon. the previous
evening, from pneumonia, the disease
having been contracted during his trip
to this city recently, to visit his parents
Mr. and Mrs. S. M. Eaton, and to look
after business interests.
The departed was born in the town of
Hebron January Z, 1856, and came to
Watertown with his parents in 1868 and
on becoming of age engaged in the soda
water business with his father, the firm
of S. nj. Eaton & Son following the early
day firm of Eaton & Green. He contin-
ued in business until the business was
disposed of and two years ago, removed
to Eugene, Oregon and engaged in bust
ness. Mr.. Eaton was one of Watertown's
best known business men. He served
several terms as school commissioner Of
the Fourth ward and was a member of
Watertown Chapter 40, F. and A. NJ, and
the United Commercial Travellers. He
was also identified with several other
local associations while a resident of
WATERFOWL. He was frank, outspoken
energetic man of affairs who possessed
a large friendship in the community in
which he resided so long and whose
memory will be cherished by all who
knew him intimately and his parents
have the sympathy Of all in their be-
reayement.
Surviving him, besides his parents,
one brother and one sister, are his wife,
three sons, Clayton, Almond and Myron,
and one daughter, Miss Pearl.
The remains will be brought to this
city for interment and will arrive
this evening and the funeral will be
held Saturday at D. m. under the au-
spices of the Masons from the home, Alp

Anent the Arbitration Treaty.

The writer, who served several
years in the federal army during
the Civil war and from his expert
ence is opposed to war and IN
hearty sympathy with President
Taft in his efforts to secure an ar
bitration treaty" between nations,
Roosevelt to the contrary notwith-
standing. General Sherman sumed
it all up in three words, when he
said: WAR is Hell", and in this
age of enlightment and Christian
ity the desire or disposition to re-
sort to arms and kill men for in
dividual and national glory should
give place to the Christ spirit of
love which should obtain beween
men and nations.
War is destructive and expensive
to say nothing of the pain, misery
and suffering it occasions. Take
our civil war as an illustration
$50, 900 men (boys rather) were
either killed or died of diseases
contracted in the army by reason
of exposure or hardships while in
the army. Multiply 5000, the pro-
ducing value of a man annually, by
that number and then multiply the
result by 20, one-half of the time
which has interviewed since peace
was established, the one-half repre-
senting the probable age to which
they might have lived, until the
present time and see what a colos-
sal sum of money was lost. But
that is not all. Add to that amount
the billions of dollars expended
both north and south during the
war; the value of the property de-
stroyed and the billions of dollars
paid as pensions since the war.
The total is almost beyond COM
prehension and had it been distrib-
uted pro rata among the people,
poverty would have disappeared
from the land. Then, who is bene-
fitted by war? not the poor, for
they must of time, under
compulsion, fight for the glory Of
others who become rich as the re-
suit of war. Many now living re-
member the immense fortunes &C
cumulated by men who remained
at home and fattened on the blood
of those who went to the front.
Surely, War is He'll, and the men
who oppose an arbitration treaty"
between nations are not manifesting
the love of Him who said, Love
your neighbor as thyself."

According to a recent report, the
Philippine Islands have cost this
country sI68, 900, 900 approximate
ly and the end is not yet. A man
doing business at such tremendous
loss would be considered a proper
subject for the bughouse if he con-
tinued business under such condi-
tons. Under the circumstances,
why not give the Filipinos their
liberty, for which this country
fought in 1875? They can never
be assimulated and become Ameri-
cans and it is a waste of money
and time to attempt it.
