John Lind Likened
To Hero of Romance

London. Aug.27 -Idealizing
the former governor Of Mime
sofa as pictureque character
well known in modern fiction.
the Evening Standard says:
President Wilson would APP
pear to have taken a leaf from
Il great book Of romance in Great
ing his latest precedent. His ap-
pointmcnt of John Lind as add
wiser Of the American embassy
IN Mexico is marvelously fict-
iOnal. and all that remains is
the hope that Mr.. Lind is as
handsome as Rudolf Raseendyll
and as dashing as d 'Artagnan.
All the rest of their adventurous
luck has been granted him.
"Officially he has no standing. a
modern hero Of romance. He is
the presidents S special repre-
sentative and his expenses are
paid out OF the secret service
fund. He has been given wide
powers, but he must be careful
how he uses them.
His business is to endeavOr to
bring about peace by securing
the resignation of President
Huerta. This he can do by pra-
ctlcally any means he thinks fit
to employ, with one exception
he must not threathen interven-
tion on the part Of the United
States.
so there is Mr.. Lind fully
equipped and accredited as much
as any hero Of romance would
care to be, and with the world,
so to speak, before him. He real
ly ought to produce another
Zenda in the Ruritania of Mex
icO."
The Evening Standard draws
quite a moral from Mr.. Lind g
appointment by saying the zap
pointment is another instance Of
the large powers man can Sc
cure under democratic govern
ment like that Of the United
States. Older countries keep re-
presentatives tied to the tele-
graph; they stray from the
wire at their own particular peril
and are tame domestic animals.
:" \ signal difference between
England and America is that if
England had to demOlish the ma
laria-bearing mosquito in Pan

and leave it to talk, palter and
delay at its own sweet will. AM

Wants Bill Passed to Make
Wheat Raising a Crime

The Pierre Dakotan wants a
special session of the legisl ature
convened and IA bill passed max
ing II a crime to SOW wheat in
tins state. The Pierre paper is
led to this radical statement be-
cause of the everlasting gamble
the farmer enters into when the
! attempt is made to get a paying
crop. And gamble is just what
It is. The Graphic recalls GER
taiu man who came to Brule
county and located near Kimball
III the SOS and started to get
rich III raising wheat. He
brought with him something like
t20, 900 clean cash and he was
not only ii well informed farm
cr and grain raiser but persist
ent worker. He brought to bear
every conceivable theory of till
age and kind of seed to use but
long before he had worked out
all the gamblers chances his
$50, 600 was gone and heavy
debt was about all he had to
show for it. Some years he had
d big crop; other years a fair
crop But taking one year with
another ii it wasn't one thing
il was another, from hail to rust
and from drought to August
rains that ruined it in the shock.
Once in while you'll find a
farmer who is ahead on wheat
raising, but when you find one
Of that sort you II find a dozen
that are out Of pocket.
If TO the exact financial loss
III dollars and cents is added the
time of man and team, the loss
is staggering 1t isn't Graphic 8
perogatlve TO tell any farmer
what he should raise and what
he should not raise.
There is fascination about
wheat raising, largely because
Of the lack Of work compared
with growing fodder crops. dairy
ing. poultry, hogs, cattle and
what is commonly called divesi-
fled farming. But the fact stands
out hard as nails that the rich
and prosperous sections of the
>tatc-or any other state-is
not the wheat raising region
Canada and North Dakota, where
the! can t raise anything else,
excepted.
The Illinois and Iowa farmers
went broke in an early day try
ing to make living raising
wheat Now and then year Of
unusually good yield and high
prices makes it like finding
money. but keep at it and wheat
raising will get you sooner or
later Not the least part of it is
that it improvishes the soil and

\ certain class Of papers with
in the state have during the past
month had much to say about
the prices quoted for state print
ing for the present quarter. The
Pierre fellows are far from be-
ing consistent in their attitude.
Nipple is known to have made
the statement that he would
spend several thousand dollars
in an attempt to discourage the
small printers Of the state from
bidding. AT the present time he
is furnishing 10000 blanks for
the automobile department for
$59; each blank is printed on
both sides; he asks 25c to 400
per dozen for such blanks from
other purchasers The Dakotan is
furnishing 61a envelopes to the
state at $3.50 per thousand, us
ing stock that costs $l.O5. Pierre
business firms pay the same
printing establishment $4.OO per
thousand for the same or a
cheaper envelope. As matter of
fact, these and some Of the other
big fellows" within the state
nave formed pool whose ef-
forts for awhile will be expend-
ed in doing just what Nipple
states, discourage the small fry
to the extent that they will re-
fran from bidding. Hop to it,
fellows, and get a red nose.

The Value of Good Roads
Benefit to State and County

the state highway cOmmission
written by Chairman f. C. Isse n
hnth of the commission.
Every body has heard the his
toric expression All roads lead
to Rome meaning public high
ways. as there was then nc
means OF travel except on foot
driving OF riding She was wise
and great and believed by build
ine roads il would build up a
commercial >upremac! which j,
did. We now know much which
Rome didn { know, but she knew
more than we do now in reali2
ing the value of roads. She b,r {
them far out into lands now be-
| longing to other nations.
The writer travelled in Eng
land on a road from London to
Exeter built by Julius Caeser
more than two thousand years
ago and found it still in perfect
condition.
BY building highways in com
munities, we become state build
ers, because they attract Others,
help ourselves and are an asset
to the State and Nation.
The Importance Of better roads
is being realized more and more.
In 1912 twenty-five counties Of
South Dakota referended tthe
Good Roads law Of 1911, as 7
permitted that clause to be in
serted to please the farmers
who wanted it as members of
the House Of Representatives at
Pierre. All these counties en-.
dorsed the law, and on the total
vote Of all these twenty r
counties carried by over two
t. one Not one county carried
against the new law. The move
ment is crystalizing rapidly and
when crystalized will be a force
for good as it goes hand in hand
and arm in arm with all other
forward movements Of our time
rs education. better farming. con-
servation Of moisture and soil.
more live stock, dairying. and
other steps to development.
Also good roads cheaper the
farmers transportation because
he should figure same. not from
his railway station to the mar
kcts of the world, but from his
granary and kitchen door to said
markets of the world, in hauling
his products to the markets. and
the articles he needs from the
markets for his home and farm
use.
The road between the country
home and the market town is no
better than it's weakest link-for
the size Of the load has to be
governed by the deepest mud
hole or steepest hill on the way.
On the old road he could haul
thirty bushels Of wheat on one
trip; with properly graded roads
ne can haul ninety bushels on
same trip. At a probable cost of
five dollars per trip for man
and team, the snm of ten dollars
is saved in getting ninety bush
els to market. Ny friends this
is worthy your thought and
study. The analysis will be q
good one to put in practice.
Don't let us mind the expense,
for it is not a matter of ex-
pense but is an investment in
every sense of the word-brings
more lasting returns than any
other taxes paid for future, as
well as the present. Don't mind
the auto owner-he pays taxes
on the full valuation of his auto.
then besides pays the county
and state together six dollars an
nually. Furthermore, the reader
OF this article would like to buy
an auto tomorrow if he had thu
means to spare I am sure.

resident for he always helped to

Neither the powered Arlington

generally believed that if there had beer
any great loss of life the Ocracoke sta

Bv The United Press
COATICOOK, Que, Sept. New

immigration officials early today
seemed confident that Harry X. Thaw
would be deported and over the YER
mont border before night and If the
army of Thaw lawyers have any hope
left, or any cards up their sleeves
they gave no hint OF II.
Thaw's last slender hope today
was that the board OF inquiry might
find him sane, but his lawyers refus-
ed to say that they subscribed to that
forlorn hope. The board of inquiry
met again at $50 o'clock.
l.. r. Marechal, counsel for the
Dominion officials at Ottawa. plainly
told the Thaw attorneys that any
decision OF the board OF inquiry,
would probably result in Thaw's de-
portation direct to Matteawan in
stead of into Vermont
Canada will have no more Of
Thaw," he said "He is without
doubt an undesirable alien. II he
brings his millions into play to fight
7 the government he will get every legal
chance. but he cannot override the
Immigration laws Of the Dominion.
and under them we can deport him
TO the institution from which he
came"
Marcheals statement was construed
as warning to the Thaw counsel
that It would be useless for them to
seek aid at Ottawa, or to try any more
appeals
