John W. Davis, New solicitor Gem
: ersl OF the United States, Is . Cold
Passionless and Able Lawyer .
(By Herbert corey.)

(By Herbert Corey.).
Washington, Sept. 3.-Have a little
look at John William Davis, newly
appointed solicitor general of the
United States.
Because John William is worth
looking at, Not that he is, a scenic
effect precisely. He. is slender and
wiry and legal minded and reticent
and has a shock Of iron gray hair.
OF the United States is one of the
heaviest Jobs extant. And there is a,
theory in the circle in which. Mr.:
Davis has moved that he will make q
hefty solicitor general.
Washington folks think that
Messrs. Bowers and Lehman, two Of
Davis immediate predecessors. are.
models after whom all successors
should pattern. They were great law
yers. and they held the confidence
and respect of the supreme court.
without which a solicitor general finds
himself progressing backward. Those
who know Davis think that he will
measure up with either Of them. He
Is a youngster. 1t is true-he was but
forty years old when he was ap-
pointed-but he has a cold, orderly,
p~assionless mind. packed with legal.
learning. He isn't a snowy pleader.
He doesn't plant the starry. nag in.
the aurora borealis and then; shoot
Roman candles at It. But he states
his legal propositions so clearly that
even the janitor can understand, and
he follows little facts by big facts,
until he attains q logical and con-
vincing. climax.
Davis was the second man on the
house judiciary committee when he
was appointed. Every now and then
contrary to the erroneous popular
impression-the judiciary committee
has something to do with law. It was
noted that other members Of the COM
mitte4 might founder in words. when
this happened. Davis hau q habit Of
remaining perfectly still. He didn't
even look amused as he listened to his
brethren reverse Blackstone and in
vert the supreme court. BY and by
some frantic committeeman would
appeal to him.
"This," Davis would reply. lis the
law and the gospel"
Whereupon the committee would
pass happily on to the next intellec-
tual crossroads. confident that Davis

m THE ROLE OF PROPHET.

Farm Stock and Home: Quite
often It happens that F.. 8. & H. is
asked to forecast the price of some
certain crop at some certain time. And
quite a often 1t has to acknowledge
that 1t does not know. 1t is a sad
commentary upon the s~elishness Of
human beings that the terminal grain
buyers do not share this information
With F.. g. & H.. and an equally sad
admission. Is made that they too do
not know what prices the future may
bring forth. Were it possible for any
mere nrtal to know these things that
man would consider wishing himself
stch - hard work.
The situation standing thus, the
best that can be done is either to guess
or to forecast. To guess about prices
IL to state definitely as a fact what

GOOD SUGGESTION.

In a letter published in this paper
. few days ago. DR.. John Coulter. a
former student of the University of
North Dakota. and now a member of
President Wilson's commission for the
study Of cooperation and farm credits
in Europe, makes the suggestion that
there be sent from a given locality
in the particular case noted. East
Grand Forks. but the advice is equal
~ good for any other community-a
banker, a merchant and a farmer to
study the cooperative systems Of
Denmark, or. If that be not convent
ent, Of ireland. in order to ascertain
what methods employed in those
countries can be successfully used at
home.
This reads like good advice. The
combination Of banker, merchant and
farmer is a good one. We have here
the mar who handles credits as a bust
ness. the man who makes a speciality
Of handling merchandise. and the mar
who looks after the producing end,
and who needs better credit and mar
keting facilities. Such a trio should
be able to work out something prac-
teal.
The work that has been done and
is being done by the commission Of
which DR.. Coulter is a member will
be Of the highest value to thu entire
country. There will be collected a
of information which is attain
able in no other manner, and the
trained minds employed on that COM
mission will give the facts their
proper Interpretation. But, IL this
work can be reinforced by that Of rep
resentative men Of the communities
that are to be interested, and these
men have the advantage of seeing the
working out Of the systems thai have
been studied. the work will be doubly
valuable.
It is important that if we are to
reach the proper results we must not
only find a system for our community
which work we'll in Europe, but one
which will work we'll where we want
to use it. And it is just as important
to learn what will not work here as
to learn what will work. There are
many things which will give good sat-
tsfaction in n place which will not
work at all in another, though the
general economic conditions may ap-
pear to be similar. There must be
taken into account not merely eco
nomic conditions, but social customs
and a multitude Of other things. The
practical man Of affairs may discover
things on a trip such as is suggested
which would escape the attention Of
the student Of economics. If such a
committee as is suggested were to Wis
It Denmark. for instance. and, after
studying the situation, were able to
y "The method works we'll in
Dsnmark. and 1t will work just al we'll
In U country, for there are no con-
d3tions there into which it would not
st. The other method works we'll in
Denmark. but It would not do at all
among our people. because it is made
to ut conditions which exist among
the Danish people. but which do not
exist whore we live" something Of
wonderful value would have been
gained.
By oil means let the work Of the
students. the men Of science, be sup
plemented wherever possible by the
further work OF those who are Of the
people who will be called on to use
the new methods. Thus we will have
the advantage Of both angles OF Wis
ion. .s-

Would Assist Farmers in
Purchasing Cows
Loans Now Being Made to
Farmers by Local
Institutions.

The plan of furnishing money with
which farmers can purchase cows for
their farms has been receiving the
attention of a number of the leading
banks of Northern Wisconsin during
the past few months and already the
banks of Iron River, Ashland, SUI
perior and few other places have
worked out proposition whereby
the farmers of their respective sections
can be furnished with money with
which to purchase cattle. The
question of loans to farmers for the
above purpose has been receiving
attention of the Bayfield, County
Bank and Northern State Bank of
this city and a number of loans have
already been made for this purpose.
A meeting of the directors of the
Bayfield, County Farmers Association
was held here during the past week
at which the question was discussed
at some length and the same propo-
sition was also taken up at meeting
of the Commercial Club held last
Friday evening, and it is likely that
before long proposition of some kind
will be worked out.
Both local banking institutions
stand ready to offer their assistance
in every way possible toward this
end.
Dairying is the one branch of farm
ing that builds up country faster
than any other line and it is one of
the things that the farmers of this
section should engage in. Here we
have the finest clover and grass lands
to be found anywhere in the United
States and there is no reason why we
cannot make this the leading dairying
section of the state if there is a united
effort along this line. Let's all get
together and boost in every way we
can.

the petition is the work of political

also cited for recall.

Il deny all charges and when the
proper time comes, l will vindicate
myself. / am informed that the Pc
tition has been illegally drawn, and
the fact that only two out of forty
prominent business men in Washburn

ty of the signers are laborers who are

who are pushing the campaign against
me are said to be The Times and the

understand their attitude.
My friends have promised me
strong support in this fight. l expect
that the proceedings will be declared
illegal before going to a vote of the
people.
