How can farmer reduce his grain

General Frederick Grant, son of the
great war hero and former president OF
the United States, has given what
should be a Knockout blow to the
friends of the liquor traffic who are en-
deavoring to restore the army saloon.
General Grant declares that it Is not
necessary that the boys who have en-
listed In the regular army should be
provided with whiskey and beer at the
army posts General Grant knows
that the average man who has been
made half drunk at the army saloon,
or "canteen," as they call it, will finish
the job of getting drunk wherever he
can. There is not mother or father
in the United States who could be per-
suaded that their boys would be safer
ii the army officers were permitted to
approvingly provide them with whiskey
and beer at their military posts Gen.
eral Grant declares that the absence of
the army saloon has worked a great
and beneficial advantage and that at
the present time the young soldier
don't need liquor and many of them
don't care for it or desire it any more
han the rest of society. The effort of
he friends Of the liquor traffic to re-
'tore the army canteen should be OPP
posed by every friend of the young
American soldier and by every OPP
,onent of drunkenness and vice.

FordneY and Sugar.
From the Flint Journal. |

When Representative Joseph Fordney
of Saginaw aligns himself with the de-
Tense for the sugar beet industry in con-
nection with the investigation of the
alleged sugar trust, he is protecting the
interests of his state to the best Of his
belief. Mr.. Fordney is an apostle Of
two things particulgrly-protective tar
iff higher than Hemsn's gallows and
conservatism In all things. he is one
of the strongest opponents of low tariffs
in the country and it is not likely he
ever will be classed as radical because
of his views on legislation. Aside from
these two facts, however. he is not un.
mindful of Michigan's interests when
he enters into the defense Of the beet
sugar industry, which has become
large factor in the states prosperity
and which promises greater things fov
the future. His contribution In respect
to the effect of beet sugar on the Amer
lean market, his opinion that beet
sugar saved America trust domination
by the American Sugar Refining COM
pany, his purpose to present material
to congress that will result in good
usage for beet sugar-all Of these things
indicate his desire to serve his state by
protecting one of its chief and growing
Industries. Members of his own party,
as well as those in other parties, dis
agree with Mr.. Fordney on many of his
tariff opinions but the majority of
them will be with him in his effort to
secure a fair market for beet sugar.
The industry represents 80 much to the
state that Michigan cannot afford to
lose it.

LAPPS AND WOLVES.

From the Natives.

The Deer Killing orutss Get No Mercy
From the Natives.
The Swedish Lapps are said to live
entirely with, by and upon their rein
deer. A Lapp who owns a thousand
deer is a rich man, but as taxes are
assessed upon the number Of deer, he
is inclined to underestimate his herd.
The most dangerous enemy to the herd
is the wolf, which can kill many deer
in a night. A band Of wolves can make
4 rich Lapp poor.
When the snow is deep and soft and
it Is announced that wolf tracks have
been seen in the neighborhood Of the
deer, the swiftest runners on snow
shoes prepare for. an exciting chase.
The wolf may have a start Of a mile
or two. but the track it leaves in the
deep, soft snow is SO conspicuous that
the hunters can follow it at their best
speed. The wolf, though he may run
swiftly, has but slight chance Of es-
Gaping his pursuers ON their snowshoes
Each hunter does his best to outrun
the others. for the wolf belongs to the
Lapp who strikes the first blow. As
soon rs the leading hunter is close
enough to the wolf he gives 1t heavy
blow across the loins with his strong,
spiked snowshoe stat. II there are
other wolves to be pursued no kills 1t
outright; If not he disables It and waits
till all the hunters have arrived before

Of Labor came up for hearing today
before the full bench Of the Supreme
Court OF the District Of Columbia. Tho
case has been pending for several
years before Justice Wright. and he
has already imposed sentences Of Inn
prisonment upon the three men. The
Supreme Court, however. found errors
in his procedure. but gave the lower
court the right to renew the proceed

brought the labor leaders into court
arose out of labor boycott OF the
Bucks Stove and Range company of st.
Louis. Though this dispute has been
settled, Justice Wright took the ground
that the dignity Of the Courts orders
had been violated. and again cited the
labor chiefs to appear and defend
themselves.
