The NORTHERN SEED COMPANY
A. B. Cox of C0urtendy Will Assume Active Con-
troll of Big ConCern---Chan0e Becomes
Effective at Once.

Edward B. Cox, formerly OF this city,
but who has been living in Courtenay
for several months. ,,
The Northern Seed Company is one
of Valley City's largest business en-
terprises, and has grown in a few
years from small beginning to a
place where it has secured recognition
in every city in the Northwest. AS an
advertisement for the city, it has been
worth as much as any establishment
ever located here, with the possible
exception OF the State Normal school,
and every season literally millions Of
packets of seed are Shipped out bear
ing the name of The Northern Seed
company of Valley city.
Mr.. Cox the new manager, brings to
the company long business exper-
ience whose success insures a conser-
vative management and steady growth.

Chicago, Aug. 7-Theodore Roose-
velt made his confession of faith"
to the national Progressive conven-
ton. The former president struck out
boldly into new ground, advocating
measures which he said frankly would
be denounced as either socialism or
anarchy. The delegates listened to his
speech with the understanding that
they must either adopt platform sub.
stantially in consonance with his
views or look elsewhere for a nomina.
ton for the presidency.
"The two old parties" he said, "are
husks, with no real soul within either.
divided on artificial lines, boss ridden
and privilege controlled, each a jum-
Bile of incongruous elements, and
neither daring to speak out wisely and
fearlessly what should be said on the
vital issues Of the day."
AS opposed to this incongruity and
insincerity of action he asserted that
the national Progressive platform will
be "a contract with the people," with
definite and concrete provisions to be
carried out If the people ratify the
contract on election day as exactly
and honestly "as if it we're actually
enforceable under the law"
Roosevelt Greed In Brief.
The real danger to privilege comes

Our aim is to control businessmen

differ regarding the interpretation
Neither Anarchy Nor Socialism.
These propositions are neither sD~
archy nor socialism, but correctivo1
to socialism and an antidote to an
archy.
Our first charge is to prevent hu-
man waste; eliminate the dead weighE
of orphanage, depleted craftsmanship
crippled workers and workers suffer-
ing from trade diseases, of casual h.
Tor and of insecure old age.
Wage scales in all industris1B
should be filed as public documents
and minimum wage commissions
should be established in the states
and the nation.
We stand for living wage, and
hold that in the continuous Industries
eight hours should be the maxfmunH
of labor, especially in the molterA
metal industry.
The premature employment Of ch1E
dren is abnormal and should be pro-
hibited. So also is the employment Of
women where they have to stand Con-
tinually.
Working women have the s4nH
need to combine for projections ms

Should He Be Of High Rank He Is
First Tortured.

Mexico City, Aug. 7.-Revolting 3
Sierra Juarez Indians in Northern
Oaxaca have surrounded a federal de-
tachment near Ixtlan, according to re-
ports reaching here. Unless the troops
can cut their way out of the trap they
probably will fall victims of torture,
because it is reported here the Indians
have suspended personal guarantees
Every federal soldier captured is ex,
ecuted, unless he happens to be OF
high rank. Then he is tortured be-
fore being put to death. -.
Two soldiers who were caught near
lxtapec were stretched on rack, then
Indians with sharp knives pared on
the bottoms of their feet. After this
the soldiers were forced to walk long
distances. One died under the torture
The other reached the goal set by
the rebels, but Immediately he was
hanged.
The Indians have been in revolt sew
eral weeks. They claim they were moi
properly treated while negotiating
with the government for settlement o1
land dispute.

first No-flt Game In

LELlVEIT TRETIRES TWENTY.
SEVEN MEN ON STRIKE
OUTS, .s..

Toledo, Ohio, Aug. 5.-After the ter
rifle walloping the Millers handed the
Mudhens Thursday the Toledo fans
were prepared to see a sweet revenge
perpetrated yesterday at Swayne field
But, Oswold, such was not the case
Instead of a victory the Hens were
made the victims of that one great
feat, mecca sought by every pitcher
a no-hit game. During the nine LONG
innings of Toledo attempts to get tc
the MiNers' most recent and brilliant
recruit from the ranks of Spavindom
but twenty-seven Hens were allowed
to take their regular time at bat. One
pass was issued by the spitball artist
but his support evened up the thing by
pulling off neat double play.
Only one other no-hit game has been
registered by pitcher in any of the
big leagues this season. George Mul'
lin, the old Detroit standby, was the
other gent who pulled off the famous
game with st. Louis, when as cele.
bration of his birthday, he tossed a
no-hit shutout.
Lelivelt faltered but once in his
stunt of passing the Hens along in
one-two-three order. In the first in.
ming he passed the first man up. From
that time on he never was anything
but complete master of the situation
His record came mainly through use
of the splitter. With his damp delivery
working like dream, he showed won
deraul control, cutting the corners and
slipping them over without the slight
est difficulty.
