ported to senate-Good Roads Pro-

Washington, July 23.-The postoffice
appropriation bill, shorn of the good
roads provisions proposed by the house,
and embracing revised parcels post
system with charges based on zones OF
distance. was reported to the senate to-
day by the postofice committee.
The total appropriations proposed by
the bill are above those Of the house

creases is in the pay Of railroads for
transporting the mails of the senate
committee. adding more than $780,

In striking out the Shackelford good

eral Improvement of highways, the

tion by a special congressional COM
mission, and provides for no highway
improvements until this commission
has reported.

WE do not think the Modern
,Woodmen are going bump" F"
Statistics of the order show that so
far the society has met all obliga-
tons at the old rate of assessments
and the raise was ordered by the
directors, say the objecting payers,
for getting more capital to invest
in bonds and stocks-meresp specula-
tion. All over the Woodmen ter
ritory protests are going into the
head camp and members are
vigorously protesting the raise.
Insurgent Woodmen are holding
sessions in every state and demand
ing that the directors back up"
or ninety per cent of the member
ship will secede and ask for a
settlement. Open charges of mis-
appropriation of the finds of the
society have been made against the
head officers and it may turn out
to be another stock swindle on the
part of those in power. An ex-
change in speaking of the lodge
says: The Modern Woodmen is
one of the best orders of its class
in the country; it is poor man S
or mems of moderate means lodge,
and few are able to pay higher
/ assessment than they are now tax
ed, and its makes many of them
squeeze at times to meet that. If
the good men who are paying the
!. rate do not want a higher rate and
1T is not necessary it should not be
forced upon them. However, the
laws of Illinois under which the
order is incorporated give the
directors full sway evidently, hence
the United States courts may be
invoked and a pretty kettle of fish
may result before the squabble has
been done with"

A COUPLE of Duluth loan sharks
have been sued by one of their
clients on the charge of usury.
For a loan of SIPS the firm had
obtained six notes of S25.S5 each
in addition to charging S2205 as a
bonus and 10 per cent interest.
After paying S42. IS on the amount
of the note the maker decided he
was being fleeced and brough suit.
1t is to be hoped that the loan
shark will be put out of business
right. Many cities in the land
have strict laws against this class
of leeches who take advantage of
sickness and death to rob the un-
fortunate who may come into their
power.

Up Against 1t

George Robinson woodsman
who came down from the St. Croix
camps and left for Duluth Tuesday
was taken into custody by the Du-
luth officers on advices from this
city charged with stealing a carbine
from the cabin of Forest Ranger
Dahlgren. After his arrest the
federal officers stepped in and
claimed the prisoner. The federal
officer charges Robinson with
shooting down telephone wires on
the forest reserve. The fun of
hearing the wires sing when hit by
the bullets from the stolen gun will
probably be offset by the Jail
sentence.

COUNTY politics are beginning to
simmer around the edges and soon
will be boiling most hotly. 1t has
gotten noised around quite pro-
miscously that Geo. Vivian the
gentlemanly chief deputy of the
county treasurer's Office will be the
next county treasurer and that
Judge of Probate Gilpin will suc-
ceed himself without a struggle.
We will state right here that Geo.
Vivian can have the place anytime
he says SO and that Gilpin is also
satisfactory. Sheriff Meining is
also deserving of second term.

That the Republican organization in
Minnesota faces trouble as a result of
the present scramble for place is GER
tain, but even in politics it is an i'll
wind that does not blow somebody
good. l refer to those candidates for
reelection below that of governor.
Not one of them is opposed. The
press, which is usually more than will
ing to give ear to some barkis, has
been so taken up with the presidential
controversy that it has overlooked the
other bets and the seekers for re-
nomination are reaping the reward.
Perhaps the one lone officeholder out
side of Governor Eberhart to be
picked for opposition is Secretary of
State Schmahl His enemies have
pounded him from all sides, but so
far have failed to make even a dent in
his breastworks julius looks like a
safe bet down here and if he succeeds
well, there is nothing to it with the
others.

Fears are entertained by some Of
those interested in the Roosevelt
cause that the state central commit
tee will so arrange the convention and
primary dates that the rural element,
which is supposed to be strong for
the former president, will be incon-
venienced. l do not think so. In poll
tics might is right and Chairman
Smith and his lieutenants are pretty
much in charge now, but / think that
all interests can depend on Mr.. Smith
for a square deal. He has that repu-
tation down here. The silent one"
may be for big Business" as some
charge, but no one ever found him
playing small politics. 1t may not be
generally known, but the chairman of
the Republican state central commit
tee frets like a novice under criti-
cism. When Frank A. Day was trying
to make Jim Gray the successor of
John A. Johnson the Republican chair
man was picked as the one best cal
culated to poison the public mind in
favor of the Democratic standard
bearer and his record was gone over
with fine comb in an effort to find
material. The stuff that resulted was
only generalities and while the voting
public refused to bite Ed fretted under
them. To his credit he did not re-
taliate in kind. In this neck of the
woods, Mr.. Smith is looked upon as
fair fighter, loyal to his friends and
always willing to give and take. For
that reason they believe that all sides
in the present Republican controversy
will get a SQUARE deal

Speaking of the present attorney
general, this department of the state
government, over which Mr.. Smith
has Jurisdiction, has not been so much
in the public eye since the retirement
of George T. Simpson. Mr.. Simpson
was one of the best advertisers in the
official game He had daily copy for
the boys and profited accordingly. Mr..
Smith is equally as accommodating in
giving out the news of his depart
ment, but he does not carry the self
publicity feature to the extreme. 1t
was Mr.. Smiths close attention to
business that resulted in the express
victory and the state can expect more
of this kind of work as his tenure of
Office grows. Governor Eberhart has
been criticised in certain quarters for
some of his appointments, but that Of
Mr.. Smith is among a few of the good
things of his administration.
