THE FIRST GRAY
HAIR SIGN OF AGE
Easy Way to Preserve Natural Color
of the Hair and Make
It Grow.

A harmless remedy, made from
common garden sage, quickly re.
stores gray hair to natural color. The
care of the hair, to prevent it from
losing its color and lustre, is just as
important as to care for teeth to keep
them from discoloring. Why spend
money for cosmetics and creams to
improve the complexion and yet neg
lect your hair, when gray hair is even
more conspicuous and suggestive of
age than wrinkles or a poor complex
ion? Of the two it is easier to pre-
serve the natural color and beauty
of the hair than it is to have a good
complexion.
All that is necessary is the occas-
ional use of Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Hair Remedy, preparation of
common garden sage and sulphur,
combined with other valuable reme-
dies for dry, harsh, faded hair, dan
drutf, itching scalp and falling hair.
After few applications of this SIM
pie, harmless remedy, your hair will
gradually be restored to it's natural
color, in a short time the dandruff
will be removed, and your hair will
no longer come out but will start to
grow as nature intended it should.
Don't neglect your hair, for it goes
further than anything else to make
or mar your good looks. You can
buy this remedy at any drug store
for fifty cents a bottle, and your
druggist will give your money back if
you are not satisfied after using. Pur-
chase bottle today. You will never
regret it when you realize the differ
ence it will make In your appearance.

Change the Fair Date.

Northern Minnesota is vitality in
terested in the effort to change the
date of the state fair. The first week
in September is too early for this
section of the state to make it's best
showing while a later date would not
be to the 'detriment of any of the
Southern counties.
At the time of the last state fair
the men who had charge of the Bel
trami county exhibit had some
trouble in getting the potatoes they
they wished as many were not yet:
ripe enough to use. At that. the
exhibit might have been better had
the fair been held a week later. The
county fair was badly handicapped
in other lines Of produce.
The principal objection offered
against changing the date of the fair
is that it will not be so convenient
for the exhibitors Of blooded animals
and the horsemen. This may be true
to limited extent but these men are
after sales and as the Minnesota state
fair has the biggest show and draws
the largest crowds, it is natural that
they will arrange their bookings to
take in the best. It is desirable to
have these exhibits, but the fair is
for the home people primarily.
The object of the fair 'is to exploit
the, r. agricultural resources of the
state and it cannot thoroughly fulfill
it's duty unless it has date which is
fair alike to all sections. Should tho
later date conflict with other fairs,
they can afford to change as the
Minnesota fair leads, them all. A
committee of A. F.. Mahnke,, E. B.
Randall and John B.. Irwin have made
a report recommending the second
week in September and it is hoped
that the report will be adopted. If
it is, the Beltrami county exhibit
next year will be bigger and better
than ever.

Some Quarantine Problems

Whatever else Gov. Dix of New
J York, may have done or may not have
done. we can but approve his position
| in holding that there should be no
duplication of work and no interior
euce between state and federal quar-
antne service at the port of New
York Yet il is hard to see how he
reconeiles his argument that New
| York state is aggrieved because the
| federal service is not complete enough
| in certain respects with the facts in
the case The Governor apparently
consents to the existence of the two
services. Yet in essence the exist
ence of the federal quarantine is an
invasion of state rights. 1t is toler-
ated because it relieves this state OF
certain work and much expense, and
does that work better than this state
could do it,
Survey" points out that many of the
ships which bring the 100000 persons
and $500, 100000 worth of merchandise
into this port in a year do not even
touch at New York dock Yet New
York state assumes primarily the re-
sponsibility for the good condition of
ship and cargo. Manifestly this ar
rangement, though perhaps in strict
accord with theory and state rights, is
unjust in practice. If in this coun-
try any port exists where the quaran-
tine should be conducted by the fed
eral government it is the port of New
York. When in 1892 national
quarantine was added to the states.
recognition was made of this federal
duty and responsibility. The COVER
nor has conceded the value and de-
STABILITY Of the federal quarantine up
to a certain point. Why should he
not carry his IDEAS to their logical
conclusion and recommend legislative
action by this state to bring about
proper concentration of the quaran-
tine service at this port in the hands
of the federal authorities? OF the
large ports of entry Boston, Baltimore
and New York are practically alone in
maintaining the present anomalous
double quarantine. The governor

wholly in special classes attached to-
the public schools. Placed in one of
these the attempt should be made to
prepare him for work in the regular
school, where his education may pro-
coed ut least cost to the public. If he
should prove to be really feeble mind
ed in spite of the promise of improve
ment he should then be sent to an in
stitution for the training of such chill
dren. He will at least have had 81
chance TO prove himself possessed of a
normal mind.
The children come to the university
from all quarters of the city. state and
even from distant states. Not only do
they come from widely separated To-
calities but from may strata of So
ciety. Many are brought by their
parents directly from home, where the
child has given trouble either on ac-
count of mental deficiency or moral
delinquency. Thus, a father brings
his boy on account of truancy. bad
companionslIip and developing ten
dency to steal. The Juvenile Court
sends us many cases for examination.
But by far the largest number of
children comes from the public
schools.

piscourteous Decapitation.

Next year, when Maine has been
redeemed and Republicans are filling
the elective offices of the State. we
hope to have no occasion to criticize
a Republican Governor for arbitrarily
and imperiously removing faithful and
efficient officials who have been ap-
pointed for stated terms, and who are
not known to be making use of their
Democrat then serving is found in
efficient in Office or disloyal to public
affairs, then We should wish to see
him removed and his place filled by
a man loyal to the principles of good
government. But in that case we
would expect him to be given all the
courtesy to which the incumbent of
any office of public trust is entitled
We would have him given fair and
friendly warning of his coming politi-
cal decapitation, and care taken to
work as little personal and financial
injury as possible upon the retiring
official.
We express our views plainly at this
time. fully determined that should an
incident like that of the past week
occur at the State House in the next
Republican administration to voice
our indignation in no uncertain terms.
But we do not expect it. We can
not conceive of any Republican now
deemed of gubernatorial size or any
young Republican growing up to it,
so far forgetting the courtesy due to
men-if TO an opposing party-as to
appoint an officials successor without
hint, explanation or complaint TO the
incumbent.
The manner in which Land Com
missioner Ring, Bank Examiner Skel-
ton, and Superintendent of Public
Buildings Keefe were dropped from
the official roll before their appointive
terms had expired. was bad enough
but the sudden kicking OUT eve use
this slang phrase advisedly as being
exactly Applicability of Librarian Prince
we consider on par with other dis
regard of precedent and law by Gov
ernor Plaisted and few of his polit
cal advisers and close associates. The
personal feelings of Mr.. Prince, his
family and his friends were trampled
ruthlessly and it would seem spite
fully. 1t was only a few months age
that Mr. Prince had moved his fam
ily TO Augusta, at considerable ex-
pense, without any suggestion being
offered that his State service would
soon terminate.
We believe that Mr.. Prince has
never been accused of inefficiency OIL
disrespect for the administration by
word or deed. and we know that tn,
economy Of his administration at the
State Library has been a subject o.
comment. Mr.. Prince had been APP.
pointed TO the State service for {
stated term. That term had not ex.
pired. He had made sacrifices on thu
strength off precedent. His precipi.
tant remoHai-the public announce
ment OF his successor before he wa,
given warning or even asked to re
sign-we submit was unpolitical, un
sportsmanlike, unkind, discourteou
and in open violation of precedent am
moral law.
1t is one more significant exampl
of the hypocrisy of those who hay
long prated of a desire for civil ser
vice reform law enforcement and a
around square deal.
