BALL y CHAIN.

Heroic measures are sometimes nee
essar in emergencies. From all the
accounts received an emergency is a
serious character existed at Minot in
connection with the recent riots, and
it was necessary for the authorities
to resort TO prompt measures to ham
die the situation. The application of
the ball and chain treatment to a
number of the worst of the offenders
seems to AVE been wise, and 1t is
likely to have q salutary effect. The
general sentiment with reference &c
men who nave persistently detied law
and interfered with order is that the
ball and chain is good enough foi

But, because a certain treatment i:

The ball and chain is quite similal
in its purpose and effect TO the stock:
of olden time. Of course men thus
ornamented can be put to work on the
streets or elsewhere, and the impedl.

the stocks were used simply for pur'
poses Of confinement and Illumination
But it is likely thai in most cases

there is more purpose to punish anC
humiliate than there is to get work
done. And, while measures which
tend to humiliate have their place, il
they become common they lose their
effect, and become worse than useless
1t is this which presents the great
est obstacle to the use Of convict Ia
Dor on public roads. 1t is not good
for the community to become fami-
liarized with the sight of punishment.
The more We see of it the less we are
impressed. If it were possible to
fence off portions of public roads and
have convicts work on them out of
the sight OF the general public, the
effect on the %convicts might be salu-
tary and the effect on the public not
one which we can afford to make toe

MEXICAN POINTS OF VIEW.

Minneapolis Journal: The point OF
view of the Mexicans themselves is be-

and of the European powers is clearly

PLANTATION of their opposed attitudes.
Most of the great powers of the
world are charged with protection of
the property interests Of their citizens
or subjects in Mexico. This charge is
all ~ supreme in Europe. Nearly
all the nations are content with any
local government that can give them
security and opportunity of exploita-
ton. The despot who can set police
protection over production and ex-
change may command their recogni-
ton and support.
The American government is not I'M

life and property of it's citizens in
Mexico. But it mas beside this In the

and constitutional government. 1t has
don what ii could to impose protec-

a lawless despot making war on con-
stitutional government for this pur-
DOS alone.
That is why We recognized Madero
and refuse countenance to the Huerta

and the ruins of his government. 1t is

1t is not known what financial sup

By LEO l.. REDDiNG

How much do the farmers around
this town know about farming?
Mighty little, if they are like the
farmers everywhere else in the United
States.
OF course, there are exceptions-in
every community there are few
farmers who really know their bust
ness, and they are the ones who are
getting the money out of farming that
every farmer ought to get.
Think of the best farmer you know
of, and then imagine what the pros
perity of this town would be if it were
the center of a community Of farmers,
every one of whom was as good a
farmer as the best one you have in
mind.
You see the point, don't you? 1t
would be a great thing for this tonw,
wouldn't it?
Europeans Good Farmers
Yet, even then, this town wOuldn t
be any better off than thousands of
towns in Europe are today, for the
best American farmers are hardly up
to the average Of European farmers,
in the amount and quality of produce
they can extract from a given area
Of land
Do you realize that European farms
with land that has been titled for
thousands of years and wasn't as
good TO begin with as the ordinary run
of American farm land-produce three
times as many potatoes, nearl three
times as much wheat and twice or
three times as much Of every other
crop to the acre as our American
farms do?
There's no secret about how they
do 1t, either. The only trick about it
is that over there the farmers find
out what each piece Of land can grow
best of all, then learn the best way
Of GROWN gthat particular crop, and
grow it. And when some one comes
alOng-a Government expert, a prof
essor in the Agricultural college
someone who knows and can prove
that he knows-and shows them a
new crop that will do better on a
certain piece of land than the old
one, or a new way to grow the old
crop and get better results they do
not hesitate to change, these progress
sive European farmers
