It last dairy inspectors appear

Editor Peck of the Naugatuck
Conn., Enterprise, who attended
the Gettysburg encampment, found
upon his return that he had no live
plate in his shop and no time to set
type if his paper was to appear on
date schedule, so he scraped together
a page or two of dead boiler material
the story of Wilson's election in
l9l2--and, with six-line apology to
his readers, rushed out his edition.
Mr.. Peck, who is a veteran of the
civil war, is both editor and compos-
itor of the Enterprise and a stickler
for issuing his weekly on time. We
know of papers which use dead boiler
plate in every issue and try to palm
the stuff off on the public as live
matter.

A Fierce and Bloody Battle.

One of the fercest battles we have
ever witnessed was pulled off a couple
of days ago on Mrs. G. H. Rines'
lawn between cock robin and
red-headed woodpecker. 1t appears
that the woodpecker had approached
within the danger zone of the robins
nest when the old cock dashed at the
variegated tree-tapper and surprised
it by pulling out a beakful of
feathers. The woodpecker retaliated
by trying to bore a hole in the
robins breast, and for ten minutes
there was a mix-up in which the air
was filed with feathers and bird
cusswords. The woodpecker eventu-
ally proved itself master of the stu
alton and compelled the robin to
take refuge in flight. The bill of
the woodpecker appeared to be too
formidable weapon for the redbreast.
After the conflict the battlefield was
found to be covered with feathers
and the grass spotted with drops Of
blood, showing that the onslaught
had been terrific. A peculiar fea-
ture of the fight was the fact that
several dozen sparrows congregated
on branches of trees near the theater
of war and watched the proceedings
in silence, but not one of them at
tempting to butt into the battle. Z

Governor SulZer of New York DEM

Governor Sulzer of New York DEM
onstrated recently that he is fully
equal to the task of taking care of
himself when occasion requires. He
was being Swallowed by three stink
ing ours who called themselves de-
tectives. Grabbing one of the sneaks
by the throat, Sulzer backed him
against building and told him he
would be thrashed within an inch of
his life if he did not leave Albany
Immediately. When released he ran
in the direction in which his COW
ardly companions had disappeared
when he was throttled by the COVER
nor. There are some things about
Suffers style which we admire, and
one Of them is that when he goes
abroad he takes no secret service
men with him as guards-his sledge-
hammer fists are equal to most
emergencies.

A militant sutfragette named Rig
by recently made dramatic confess
sion of incendiarism in a. Liverpool
police court by stating that she had
burned mansion belonging to Sir
William Lever, which entailed loss
of 100000, and that she had also
exploded a dynamite bomb in the
cotton exchange of that city. She
gloried, she said, in her work of
destruction and, if given an oppor-
tunity, would commit other depreda-
tions Of similar nature. A term of
a few years in prison would never
reform a woman of this sort. Life
sentence in an asylum for the crimi-
nal insane would be the proper pun
ishment for her.

Great California Rodeo at Opera House
Saturday and Sunday Evenings.

A photoplay that will appeal to all
classes is booked for the opera house

show in itself. Those who have
never witnessed roundup will see
something that will fill them with
wonder, surprise and delight. 1t
contains more thrills than a circus,
more racing than a county fair, and
more amazing features than a car
nival.~ It will be here for two nights
only, Saturday and Sunday, and not
withstanding the great cost in secur-
ing this attraction, the price of
admission will be only Is cents.

The Wilsonian faithful in North
Dakota who were jockeying for the
job of customs collector at Pembina
have been shocked and endorsed by
the announcement from Washington
that Jud La Moure, jr., a republi-
can, will retain the office, to which a
salary of So, 500 year is attached.
For a quarter of century the office
has been held by one of the La
Moure family and no administration
has deemed it policy to remove the
incumbent. Administra tions NAV
come and administrations may 90,
but the La Moures bid fair to retain
the Pembina collectorship forever.

That was sensible decision which
the state supreme court handed
down last Friday when it ruled that
telephone wires must be strung so as
not to interfere with. shade trees.
Heretofore telephone companies have
mutilated trees by chopping off limbs
and tops whatsoever they interfered
with the stringing of wires, and the
owners of the trees have protested
in vain. Public corporations using
aerial wires will now have to desist
from mutilating trees and, under the
courts ruling, we presume, may be
compelled to remove wires already
STRUNG through treetops.

Minnesota and Wisconsin COMPARED.

Wisconsin frittered away the
school, university and other lands
coded to the state by the federal
government and has little to show in
connection with them, except a
record of shame and folly. Mime
sofa, like Dakota, husbanded these
resources, and as d result possesses a
fund that exceeds 1928, 900, 900 and as
sets that bring the total up to ap-
proximately 100000, 900. Wisconsin
sold her land, including the valuable
timber that stood upon most of it.
for little more than a song, and now
the state legislature contemplates
dealing a fatal blow to forestry
policy designed to correct in part
the mistake of former years, while
Minnesota has pursued the policy
of selling timber upon state lands at
something like it's real value, with
the result that during the last fiscal
year that state received an income of
1924, 2e5 for timber cutting privileges
alone. The Wisconsin university
land fund amounts to only 1892. 796.
