QUARANTINE ON HORSES
DISEASE ORIGINATED NEAR BROWN
CITY SEVERAL WEEKS AGO

The members of the Michigan Live
Stock Sanitary Commission have plac-
ed a quarantine upon horses in Sanilac
and Lapeer counties. In the commits
ions statement it is alleged that a con
tagious and infectious disease had
broken out among the horses of these
counties and that the disease is being
spread.
The disease originated near Brown
City several weeks ago, and some
horses have been injured as result.
1t is claimed that the horses which
spread had been lately imported with
out being inspected by the State veter
marian. The owners have been arrest
ed and their examination is set before
Justice ID. Mcclellan at Brown City next
Monday.
This action by the state commission
seems to be an injustice to the owners
of horses in the northern part of the
county, who, no doubt are not infected
by the disease however the quarantine
may be lifted against certain sections
of the county within a week or ten
days.-Sanilac County Farmer.

The Boston Post in an impartial
news report OF the political situation
in Maine, says: "The interest centres
chiefly in the strength which the pro-
gressives will be able to muster. The
possibility of progressive victory is
very remote, and the leaders of the
party frankly state that the best they
can hope for is to poll enough votes
to defeat the republicans and perhaps
relegate the q. o. P. to third place.
1t is largely on the strength which the
progressives will poll that the demo-
Gratis base their hope of electing their
nominee for governor. All politics in
Maine center around the prohibition
issue. The enforcement of the law
under the administration of Governor
Haines has been more strict than ever
before, and it has had the effect of
bringing the issue to the front stronger
than ever. The progressives have
practically straddled the prohibition
issue. The republicans are standing
on their record of enforcement. The
democrats are standing for what
amounts to high license, or local OPP
ton, which contemplates resubmis-
sion OF the entire question to the
people.n

In order to establish and have paid
by this government millions of dollars
of Civil war claims in the South, the
leader of the democratic majority in
the House of Representatives has pro-
posed that it shall not be necessary to
prove the loyalty" of the claimant
to the government at the time of the
war. This is the entering wedge.
Once this proposition passes Con-
gress, the treasury will be swamped
with claims from every crossroads
south of Mason and Dixon's line, and
Uncle Sam will be forced to pay what
actually amounts to money premium
upon the disloy atty OF men who are
no longer content with his generosity
in long ago removing all civil disabili-
ties that they justly incurred by their
rebellion against him.

II there is ever another Hague con-
ference one of the matters to which
1t should address itself without delay
is the definition of the "true spirit Of
neutrality. In discountenancing the
placing OF French loan in the United
States by firm of private bankers
our government takes the ground
that the proposed hotation would be q
violation of the "true spirit of neu-
trality". The phases is Bryanesque
and invites the question where the
aforesaid true spirit begins and
ends. If 1t is violation Of the 'strue
spirit" for Americans to subscribe for
a French loan, is it similar violation
for Americans to purchase for $780,
600, 600 German liners new interned in
our ports? The gold paid for these
steamers will go to the Golfers of Ger

Hon. John A. Roberts, commissioner
of agriculture of Maine, in speech
at republican rally in Warren last
week, said: 81 voted for Col. Roose-
welt in 1912, and did it because of his
stand for protective tariff. Taft's
reciprocity treatment with Canada
had set me against him. Wilson l
considered a square and sincere man,
but ! did not believe in his policy. I
am not a progressive, as progressives
are known to-day. The republican
party has been the most progressive
party the nation has ever known. 1t
has advanced step by step, and fast
enough. / saw voters, who are op-
posed to free trade, out in the open
fighting each other, instead of facing
the common enemy, and / came to
the conclusion that the best way to
fight it out was in the ranks OF the re-
publican party. We should vote with
out prejudice, and SO vote that our
farmers do not have to compete with
the potatoes OF Germany which are
raised for 15 or 20 cents bushel."

Col. Roosevelt has made good his
promise to speak in Maine during
this campaign. He received the
greeting due an ex-President of this
great country of ours, but there is no
indication that his coming made any
progressive votes. On the contrary,
his speeches but emphasized the fact
that the progressives and republicans
are allied in principles if not in party
organization, and the only way the
progressives of Maine can make their
votes effective is by setting principles
above party.

! ing of prosperity. unen the policy

9th ing of prosperity, upon the policy
OF the government at Washington, is
that of shipbuilding and the shipping
trade. Now that the necessity for the
building of merchant marine is be-
ing brought home to this country as
never before, through the paralysis of
trade due to the war in Europe. Maine
finds her opportunity almost within
grasp, finds united public sentiment
all over the country behind her in it,
and everything right for the achieve
ment of her long cherished hope and
ambition-except the fact that the
law that will establish such a mer-
chant marine and the policy that will
maintain it are shaped by demo
cratic Congress and a democratic
President. And the democracy
is and has been for all time hopelessly
incompetent to lay solitary feature
of business development in the land.
Names fight for merchant marine,
therefore, must begin by taking hold
with singleness of purpose to help the
nation elect republican House of
Representatives. The four splendid
candidates of the republican party for
Congress this year are thoroughly in
touch with the interests of Maine that
are involved in the shipping trade.

The republican party here is

The republican party here is en-
gagged in splendid fight against a
rum controlled democracy at home
and the ruinous policies OF the ma
tional democracy. A little band of
self constituted progressive leaders
are desperately endeavoring to lend
help to the democrats. The most that
they could, under the best of circum-
stances, hope to do is to defeat their
old republican friends and put their
enemies, the democrats, into power.
Evidences multiply that the sober
minded voters who have called them
selves progressives are not going to
set back the welfare OF Maine by any
such foolish wasting of her political
strength. - Rockldnd Courier Gazette.

A Delicate Proposition

Edouard Clunet, former head of the
Institute of International Law at
Paris, and one of the worlds recog-
nized authorities on international
law, says the purchase of German
steamers by the United States after
hostilities have begun would be vio-
lation of neutrality, and cites many
prize court decisions to this effect.
President Wilson, however, is going
ahead with his program, and bill
with this object in view has already
been introduced in the House.
Col. e. c. Plummer, of Bath, who is in
Ellsworth to-day, and is scheduled to
address republican rally here Friday
evening, agrees fully with this French
authority, and, i'll fact, voiced the same
opinion at Winnipeg three weeks ago.
Col. Plummer is himself recognized
authority on this subject and as one of the
leading admiralty lawyers of the country
has represented the coastwise shipping
interests in Washington for fifteen years
He is even now under urgent call to re-
turn to Washington ON business con-
nected with the shipping bill.
Col. Plummer goes even further than
DIR. Clunet, and says the purchase of Ger
man steamers under existing conditions
will inevitably lead to strained relations,
If not TO war, with England. and it is his
belief that German interests are actively
promoting the bill at Washington with
that very object in view.
The proposition is q delicate one, YET
there has been no indication that the ad-
ministration at Washington or the south
ern democrats in control Of Congress have
shown any appreciation of the fact.

1t Won't Go Here .

If Col. Roosevelt is correctly
quoted, in his speech last week at
Lewiston he said:
"Two years ago good many honest people,
honest progressives, were deceived into sup
porting gentlemen like Mr.. Burleigh and
Mr.. Peters because these gentlemen assured
the voters that they were really progressives
and would stand for progressive policies.
But as a matter of fact, in Congress they have
stood absolutely with the Bourbon reaction
aries of the stamp of Mr.. Gallinger and the
other men who two years ago took part in the
theft from the rank and file of the republican
party of its right to make its own platform
and declare for its own policies"
The apparent apprehension that
Col. Roosevelt was under that Mr..
Peters was a candidate for congress-
man two years ago is immaterial ex-
cept as indicating that he was equally
as uniformed or misinformed as to
Mr.. Peters political attitude. This
kind of talk will act as a boomerang
for the progressives or democrats
making it in Mr.. Peters own town or
county; IN fact, throughout the third
congressional district, or wherever
Mr.. Peters is we'll known.
A prominent Hancock county pro-
gressive expressed himself freely to
the editor of THE AMERICAN recently
as opposed to this kind of an attack
on Mr.. Peters. sits a mistake,' he
