TA666 xA66 VxS106 AO0& 4A3ASA9
Springfield Republican: During the
New York mayoralty campaign it was
well enough to understand where
President Wilson's sympathies lay,
but there was a careful disclaimer on
the part of the campaign orators who
came on from Washington of any au-
thority to speak directly for him.
Now, however, the president 8 position
is spoken OF i'll unequivocal terms by
Dudley Field Malone, Senator O'Gor,
mans son-in-law, whom the president
made collector Of the port OF New
York. At banquet Friday night Mr'
Malone, as quoted, apparently. YER
batim, in the Sun, spoke of Tammany
hall as "that lair of political SNUG
glers in "Fourteenth street, and ad-
ded, 81 say to you, and I speak with
knowledge, President Wilson will never
tolerate the rehabilitation Of Charles
F. Murphy and those men who, beaten
and disgraced in the last campaign,
seek to maintain their leadership OF
the democratic party in this city, In
the last analysis the continuation OF a
progressive democratic administration
at Washington is a permanent menace
to a perpetuation Of the vicious con.
troll of Murphy and his following. IL
forces every day the contrast between
true democracy and democracy thst 1s
rotten to the core.

TARIFF AND CURRENCY ACTS,
WITH ARBITRATION TREATIES
IT'S CHIEF ACHIEVEAdE:l1T

Washington, March 4.-The Demo
cratic administration was a year old
to-day. just twelve months ago at
! noon, Woodrow Wilson stood on the.
east front Of the Capitol and took the
oath of office, ushering Democracy in
to control of all branches of the ma
tlonal government for the first time
in twenty years.
At the White House, in executive
quarters generally, and in congress
siOnal circles the day served to recall
the work of the fleeting year. a
Members of Congress realized that
except for a short breathing spell at
the Christmas holidays they had been
in practically continuous session.
: Cooperation Rules.
From the time the President broke
century-old precedent and stood be-
fore an assembled Congress to urge the
enactment of low tariff, close CO.
operation has reigned between the
chief executive and the leaders Of the
dominant party in Congress.
The enactment Of tariff law ON
October 3, 1913, making vital changes
in the duties on imports was followed
by the signing Of banking and cur
rency act on December %, 1913. r,
Arbitration Treaties. 2
These two laws and the recent rati-
fication of the arbitration treaties are
the things which the President Is
friends were pointing to as the direct
result of the intimate contact estab
lished between the executive and legis-
lative departments of the government:
Mexican Situation. !
Nf,,aI AE ho % &s,,o>
energy have been spent in wrestling
with a troublesome Mexican situation,
as yet unsolved, and the diplomatic
tangle with Japan growing out Of the
passage by California Of a new anti
alien land law. ,
Foreign Relations Up.
Lately he has been devoting himself
to rehabilitation Of the foreign rela-
tions of the United States-the draft
ing with Secretary Bryan of new
peace treaties, the settlement Of the
Panama canal tolls controversy with
Great Britain, difficulties with Co.
lombia growing out Of the partition of
Panama, and many other subjects Of
foreign policy.
Five Times Before Congress-
Five times the President has appear
ed before Congress, delivering mes
sages on the tariff, the currency, Mexi-
, can affairs, the annual report on the
estate Of the Union and trust legisla-
tion.''
Interest in the President 8 sixth
message was apparent when it became
known he would address Congress to-
morrow in advocacy of the repeal Of
the clause exempting American coast
wise shipping from the payment Of
Panama canal tolls.

St. Cloud Times: The Minnesova su-
preme court handed down a decision
Friday holding that the manufaetar-
ers Of a defective machine are liable
for any damage that may result from
it's defects. The case was brought by
Herman Krahn against the J. l..
Owens company Of Minneapolis. The
defendant company manufactures q =
bean and pea thresher. 1t sold one OF
these machines to q Wisconsin nrm
which was employed by Krahn to
thresh his crop. Because Of a defect
in the machine Krahn was injured and
it was found necessary to amputate his
right leg. He sued the manufacturers
and a jury in Hennepin county award:
ed him $4,000. The supreme court
holds that the company is liable, but
that the verdict is excessive and cuts
the award to $4,000. ... 'e.=s. { :s:s

TRUSTS TO "GET" BRYAN

News dispatches carry the astound'
ing information that the "money
trust has raised a gigantic fund to
oust Mr.. Bryan from the cabinet. This
is to be done by discrediting his work
through the columns of the subsidized
press; through personal circulation
and in every possible way.
This is the best evidence possible
that Mr.. Bryan is foe to the trusts
And unless we are nightly mistaken
it will so strengthen his hold upon the
peoples affections that no amount of
corrupt practices can dislodge him from
his present high position.-F. L. B. in
Owatonna Tribune.

DAMPNESS IN POULTRY HOUSES

DAMPNESS IN POULTRY HOUSES
A prolonged period Of unusually wet
weather is always a trying experience
for poultry man. This condition is like
ly to occur again as it has once this
winter.
The modern poultry house usually
depends upon ventilation to prevent
it from becoming uncomfortable from
excessive humidity; which is an ex-
ceedingly difficult thing to do during
prolonged period Of damp weather.
Litter is usually Of such material that
it absorbs water readily and at such
times as mentioned above becomes in
tolerably damp. Because of the fowls
close and constant contact, damp litter
causes more colds and cases Of roup
than extremely low temperatures, and
is on that account most damaging to
the health of the fowls which can en-
dure dirty litter almost to the point Of
filthiness with less harmful effect.
Remove the damp litter at once even
though it has just been put in. No
litter at all would be better than damp
litter. Occasionally; one must expect
to find the weather against him. Even
poultrymen cannot expect to find it all
sunshine. Make the best of it and
supply new and dry litter IT triaiag
cost rather than sustain big losses in
fowls or egg prodnction-pRobably
both.-A. G. Smith, in charge Of Peul-
try Husbandry;. University Farm, st.
Paul.

Red Wing Daily Eagle: The Little
Falls Herald expresses the sentiments
of this newspaper to "t' when 1T
says, in regard to the suggestion that
the public schools of the state should
be placed under control of the uni"
versity board Of regents-'If the
state efficiency commission were to be
Judged by its tentative recommended
ton that the board Of regents become
the state board of education, the first
thing to do in the interest Of efficiency
would be to abolish the efficiency com
mission. There never was a more abb
surd and preposterous suggestion than
to put the state educational system
in charge of the regents. The university
is out Of proportion now in its relation
to the educational system, and such
change as proposed, and placing execu-
tive authority in the hands Of the presl-
dent of the university jointly with the
superintendent Of public instruction,
would be a monstrous blunder. What
is needed is a general educational
board to which the university should
be subject as we'll as the other parts of
the state s educational system.

F. B. Lynch is showing his colors
again. In the St. Paul fight for good
government under the new non-partl-
san charter, Lynch is squarely for
Brewery control. In the interest of
Powers, the acknowledged candidate OF
Dick O'Connor, Otto Bremen and Bllly
Hamm, Lynch tried to get Louis Nasn
to get out Of the race. Two years ago
Lynch did not dare to oppose O'Connor
in Ramsey county, to make a fight tol
Wilson. Now he is in open alliance
with O'Connor, ready to "crook the
pregnant hinges Of the knee where
thrift may follow fawning." Lynch
is indeed the opportunist that ne
claims to be, misfit in times OF poitl
cal betterment, and he cannot long
avoid being known for what he is.
