SALT LAKE TALK
President David Starr Jordan
Gives Views on Burbank

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug In an au-
thorized interview here today President
David Starr Jordan Of Stanford univer-
sity, expanded his recent address in Salt
Lake City on The possibilities OF eugenics
or "Burbanking the human race"
~ used the phrase. 'Burbanktng the
race" he said today. .'to show that
although systematic scientific selection OF
mates could be made to produce great
physical strength. beauty. endurance and
even mental power. those very persons
who might be thus effectively mated
would never submit to state dictation.
III they would, they must In time
eliminate the most vital elements in hui
man evolution-love and initiative. Love
is the best basis for marriage. and love
is a very real and noble thing In spite
Of tho baseness OF its many limitations.
"The value OF cugenic study is In the
diffusion OF sound ideas Of lIfe and parent
hood. Government can do something by
refusing parenthood TO those who can
not care for themselves because OF fee

Islation must be undertaken very eau

Of all doubt. Government should not go

re-actionaries as opposed to the pro-
gressives in the U. S. senate. He
called the roll on a number of am
endments to the commerce court law
in which Nelson voted with Aldrich
& Co., and emphasized especially the
case where Nelson voted against the
provision prohibiting anyone having
any interest as stakeholder or other
wise in any railroad from being made
judge Of the commerce court.
Nelson's amendment to the COM
merce and labor act, whereby the
Chicago packers escaped punishment
the famous Immunity BATH" was
shown up clearly to the audience, and
the speaker has the gift Of making
his meaning very clear.
Nelson's refusal to confirm the ap-
pointment Of Judge M. D. Purdy to
the federal bench made by Pres.
Roosevelt was criticized, and also
used as an illustration of the power
Of U. S. senate in compelling ap-
pointments agreeable to the sena-
tors.
Finally the Ballinger matter was
taken up and Nelson's record as
chairman Of the investigation COM
mittee, and to what lengths he went
to attempt to shield and vindicate
this friend of the interests, was
graphically told. Nelson's undigni-
fed exit from the meeting Of the com.
mittee at Minneapolis and later at
tempted vindication Of Ballinger as
a faithful public servant was dwelt
upon. The speaker then retold how
the protest Of the people was made
manifest in the election Of a demo-
cratic house, and when confronted
with the probability Of facing ar
ticles Of impea chment, Ballinger
made haste to resign and his suces-
sor, altho a friend of Ballinger's,
was constrained to declare the Cum
bingham claims fraudulent, thus con-
victing Nelson Of having been doing
the bidding Of the interests seeking
to exploit the peoples heritage in
Alaska.
minnesota is now paired in the
U. S. senate" declared the speaker.
l"One senator is a progressive and
fone re-actionary. The vote of one
offsets the other and Minnesota is a
cipher in the highest councils Of the
nation. Either send two progress
sives or else two re-actionaries to
represent you" eff elected by your
suffrage I will promise that there
will be one vote more with LaFollette,

county and report the progress of
his campaign. Later in the speech
he stated what he had not stated at
any place before, namely, that he
was confident that William E. Lee
would be nominated at the primaries
four weeks hence. Mr.. Lee very ef-
fectively showed up the state ma
chine and it's ramifca tons, with a
general analysis Of political condi-
tons in the state and how the diff
ferent interests, as the brewers, rail-
roads, steel trust, public service COR
porations, are all united in the eff
fort to control state government. He
incidentally took rap at Lieuten-
ant Governor Gordon, stating that
the failure Of the state wide primary
in the regular session was due to the
reactionary conference committee
appointed by Gov. Gordon as we'll as
the committee appointed by Speaker
Dunn. The business management of
the state Lee proved to be the worst
ever. He claimed that there was not
a single school district or township
in the state that was as loosely ad-
ministered as the state finances.
His address as a whole was an
arraignment of Governor Eberhart
and his administration and the ex-
travagance Of the legislature at it's
regular session. He cOntended that
expenditures in this state were run
ming riot, and that taxes for state
purposes were increasing by leaps
and bounds. Taking a ten-year per-
iod for comparison, he showed that
in 1901 the cost Of the legislative
session was $145,920, while in 1911
the session cost $319,97l.91.
'"The executive expenses" said Mr..
Lee, ''have been piling up fully as
rapidly as the legislative expenses.
Inspectors are out inspecting every
thing-for fees. In 1901 the execu-
tive expenses Of Minnesota amounted
to $l24,212, and in 1911 the execu-
tive expenses footed up to $317,809.-
IL. State board expenses for 1901
were $129,276. Last year they were
1856, 86l.44. The total state expense
last year amounted to over $13,000,-
900.
"The state tax rate has increased
from 1 5-10ths mills only four years
ago to 2.65 mills last year, and what
is more, the / 5-1Oths mills was lev
led on a valuation of less than $780,
100000 while the 2.65 mills Of last
year was levied on a valuation of
$1,212,O 100000.
"Besides this increase in direct
taxes which the people are paying
the state, there has been an enor-
nous increase in special taxes. The

editor Willmar Tribune:

Editor Willmar Tribune:
In a previous issue Of the Tribune
we noticed an article written by Mr..
A. Flygare expressing his views in
which he believes the farmers Of this
county are entitled to be represented
in our state legislature by some farm
er.
With our limited acquaintance with
Mr.. Racine we have nothing to say
against him and think him capable
and a gentleman worthy Of ones ac-
quaintance, yet we believe, in this
county with it's extensive agricultural
industry, some one outside Of our
commercial center is entitled to the
office Of representative.
The commercial element is we'll re-
presented by our present senator and
there is nothing unfair in what Mr..
tlygare proposes.
1t is admitted that there is no
class Of industry, either commercial
or otherwise, that have as little re-
presentation in the affairs of govern
ments in proportion to number,
wealth and taxation, as the tillers of
the soil.
Education among the peasantry in
past ages was of a low order and the
calling yoke Of inequality was borne
with meek complacency and their
vassalage passed on, strewed along
the highways Of time into oblivion,
without sight or thought from their
lordly potentate, but today this in
equality which has, and is causing,
such an exodus from country to city,
is the overcrowding subject at every
banquet hall where the city fnan-
ciers spread their sumptuous feasts.
Are we to get relief only from a
system of teaching advocated by J.
J. Hill, the city bankers, and COM
mercial clubs which proclaim that be-
cause man is farmer his pos
terity shall forever till the soil.
We fear this system introduced in
our rural schools will result in
nothing more nor less than peasant
ry.
The dividing Of a people into class
es is always degrading to the class
which is overcrowded.
The last paragraph in Mr.. Fly
gare's letter calls for a personal re-
ply by the writer.
| have received several letters
from friends in the county request
ing that | become a candidate for re-
preventative but after thinking the
matter over have decided not to do
SO.
Thanking my friends for their
kind esteem shown me and which
appreciate more than the honors Of
an office, l remain,
Respectfully,

PETERSON MAKES
MANY FRIENDS
James A. Peterson Makes ElO-
quent Address and Scores
Record of knute Nelson.

Many voters Of Willmar who we're
inclined to lightly regard the candi-
dacy Of James A. Peterson Of Min
neapolis for the U. S senatorship
changed their minds after hearing his
message at the Carlson Hall Friday
night. Although the heavens were
opened and rain fell in torrents be-
fore the meeting there were a cou-
pie of hundred voters who had brav-
ed the wet and were present.
They found Mr.. Peterson a pleas
ing and logical speaker, one who
would fill the highest Office at the
command Of the people in the state
with dignity and honor at Washing
ton.
Senator Odell presided at the
meeting, and stated that the people
Of the state mig ht do worse than
elect Mr.. Peterson.
Mr.. Peterson opened with an ex-
position Of the political conditions Of
the country and TIE usurpation Of
power by the courts. He showed
clearly how the high protective tar
if protects the trusts with their wat
cred stock from the competition Of
the world and declared himself, al
tho protective tariff man and re-
publican, to be in favor Of slicing
off the high tariff wall to the point
where the water would be squeezed
out Of the trust stocks. His des-
cription of how Morgan organized
the steel trust and thus compelled
the American people to pay dividends
on over $750,000,000 fictitious value,
was very vivid.
He had no difficulty to prove that
Knute Nelson is lined up with the

FLEE MAKES STRONG
TALK AT WILLMAR
Scores State Administration and
Machine for Extravaganza and
Loose Business Methods.

Honorable William E. Lee, candi-
date for nomination for Governor,
was at Willmar last Thursday eve
ming and spoke to an enthusiastic
audience which nearly filled the op-
era house. The audience was a re-
preventative one, including many
farmers, and they went home con-
WINGED that Kandiyohi county had
made no mistake in giving it's prefer
ence to Lee in the May primaries.
Mr.. Lee makes no pretentions to or
atory, but nevertheless his speech
was not lacking in the qualities that
go to make up effective public speak
ing.
Attorney Elias Racine acted as
chairman Of the meeting. He first
introduced Victor S. Knutson, who
made a neat little speech eulogizing
his old home county and city. He
spoke in the highest terms Of praise
Of Mr.. Lee and stated that "what-
ever you may think Of my record
since l left Kandiyohi county, you
must admit that have been in good
company"
Mr.. Lee was then introduced and
proceeded to extend his thanks to
Kandiyohi county for what they had
done for his candidacy in the spring
primary. He said that it had helped
him in every part Of the state and he
felt under deep obligations to the
people Of the county. Since then he
has spent three months in travelling
turnout the state speaking two OF
three times a day, and he was glad te
be able to come back to Kandiyoh!

ION the War Path"

Another one of those popular
'"101" Bison features to be seen at
Dreamland next Thursday and Fri
day evenings, Aug. % and %. A
two-part feature picture in which All
old chief re-enacts in a dream the
scenes of his early life. This dream
tells a story Of fierce, mountain In
dams. There are two tribes, Apach-
es and Yumas, not wholly in accord
and there are on the other hand the
soldiers. The Apaches want war with
the soldiers; the Yumas want peace
and the struggle Of will between these
two tribes is the pictures center of
interest. A love story is introduced,
with a maiden Of one tribe and a
brave Of the other, and this is used
to bring out the incidents Of the
struggle and to add human interest.
Ut is played against grandly noun
famous backgrounds, and there is
battle and flight in which the tribes
figure as a whole, and there is also
thrilling personal adventure. The
Apache heroine, who warned the Yu-
ma, is, for her treachery, staked
down with a rattlesnake in striking
distance Of her. The soldiers, coming
to the rescue of their friends, the
Yumas, after an exciting climax in
the midst of battle smoke, arrive in
time to save her. 1t is big, blood
stirring picture, we'll made in every
way and thoroly pleasing.
