Runqe,s Good Work

Grant s. Hager, one of the prominent Progressive
editors Of. the state, owner and published Of The
Walsh County Record, at Grafton, has the following
comment: ,@.s
when the law creating the office of fire marshal
was passed by the last legislative assembly, we.
along with a large portion of the citizens of the state,
looked upon it as another raid upon the public treas
ury, creating more salaried jobs without return or
benefit to the tax payers. When, however, Governor
Hanna appointed Chief Runge, of the Grand Forks
fire department, as the first marshal, we felt that the
Office was taken out of politics and if it was possible
to, make 1t SofsbeneRt to the state the first incumbent
Of the O~ffceSWould find that way. Our expectations
have been more than realized, and We wish now to
say that the State FiTemen's association in urging
this new law did a great service to the state, and
that Governor Hanna is entitled to credit for turning
down the many political %aspirants whose claims
were pressed for this position, and appointing q man
whodis not a partisan? but who is, and has been for
a lifetime, a trained fire fighter. Fire Marshal Ruhge
has been going ovensthe state during the past, yIear,
cohsciehtiolslys looking over general conditions, and
making suggestions here and there which will pre-.
vent fires, and in case of fires will prevent disasters.
He has condemned buildings where necessary and
caused Others to be closed until they comply with
legal provisions: as to exits and general construction:
His work has been impartially performed and is
worth thousands of dollars to the people of the
state in measures tending to prevent fires. We
cannot close without driving home the fact that the
people can derive no benefit from good laws unless
they are wisely and impartially enforced. Marshal
Runge has made this law effective and eficacious,
because he has a knowledge of it's provisions and a
purpose to carry them into effect; another man as
fire marshal, without knowledge of fire fighting and
without character and will, would have written the
new act a dead letter"

The Boston News Bureau says that
at the sugar mille Of the Nipe Bay
company in Cuba more bagasse or
refuse is being developed from the
cane than is needed for fuel and that
the surplus is being made into paper.
1t says that this paper is of a "splen-
did grade" selling at high figures
and good profit. This possibility has
been discussed often and sugar cane
is not the only product considered
capable of such use. Over in the
Philippines one of the difficulties of
agriculture is the rapidity with which
the cogon grass springs up and occu-
pies the soil. Many experiments have
been made with this fbrous substance
in the way Of papermaking and good
prospects have been reported. II
it proves available, we shall have a
crop, ~self-sowed, which ripens in a few
months, as against the spruce, which,
II It revives at all, takes 20 years
for renewal.

Build Island Of Concrete.

An artificial island of reinforced
concrete has been built in the Medi-
terranean at Hyeres strait, neal Tout
lon, the great French naval base,
which is to be used solely for testing
torpedoes. The island Is not a large
one, being less than 80 feet long by
about so feet broad, and is built upon
a reinforced concrete caisson which
was towed out from Toulon and sub
merged. 1t is divided into compart-
'ments by walls 4 feet thick, in the
largest of which. 10 feet below the g
level, the torpedoes are handled. Pro-
jecting from this compartment are
three torpedo tubes, while above the
surface Of the water, 10 feet in the
air, are two aerial-torpedo tubes. The
operating mechanism, which uses cleo
tricity as a motive power, is all con-
tained in the superstructure built over
the caisson, and lighting and ventilat-
ing systems as we'll as wireless and
searchlights are provided. An electric
crane extending out from one side
permits the ~torpedoes to be lifted from
the water and returned to their sta
tons after practise.-Popular Mechan-
les.

MIssIonarIe. plseover waterfaIl.

Father Colbacchini of the Salesian
order, founded by Don Bosco, which
has important mission stations among
the Indians of Brazil. reports the dis
covery of a great waterfall on the Rio
das Mortes, in the Matte Crosse,
which he named after Plus X. The
Rio das Mortes, which is be-
tween $50 and 200 meters wide and
more than two meters deep in its
higher course, narrows down gradual
ly to about eight meters, and the i'm
mense volume of its waters dashes
down through a mass of high rocks In
a wonderful waterfall more than 500
meters long. Father Colbacchini had
the name of Plus x cut in the. rock
near the waterfall and erected a large
cross made from the branches of two
trees on the brink of the water. He
then explored the lower course OF the
river. The surface of the region
crossed by Father Colbacchini and his
party of Bororos is covered by strata
Of sandstone deeply eroded and in
dented by water, and the river basin
was surrounded by ridges and ranges
Of hills.-New York Sun.

Bridge for New Orleans.

1t seems that the project of a bridge
over the Mississippi near New Or
leans, first proposed in 1883, is to be
put through. The original design was
for a crossing about four or five miles
above New Orleans, where no change
Of bed or banks has occurred in the
recorded history Of the river. The span
Of the cantileyer bridge was to be l.
O70 feet between centers Of main
piers, the suspended span being
44O feet long and the anchor arms
each $50 feet s inches in length. The
foundations were to extend to ITO feet
below water and were to rest on a
bed of firm sand. The piers were to
be sunk by dredging through open
wells or cylinders. The present plan
calls for a double bridge, n deck for
highway and electric railway travel,
and the other for railway service

his first time across the water, and
he stated on his return that he would
have had a perfectly glorious time but
for the silly questions asked him by
customs officials. 1t was on the pier
at New York that his woes came to a
climax. The officer looked up in
amazement. open your trunk,

Church, State and Poor.

A book on THE Church, the State
and the Poor has been written by an
English vicar. The book is compre-
hensive, tracing the subject Of preref-
ormation days. The author regrets
that during the growth of collectivism,
under which he Classics what is
called Christian socialism," the
church has trusted too much to the
state to better the conditions among
the poor. Now there is a revival Of
interest in the welfare of the poor on
the part OF the church. The writer's
contention is that a Arm belief in the
Christian creed IL the only inspiration
and guide to any effort TO solve "the
social problem"

Marquis de Castellane, in his Paris
letter to the New York American,
says: "Once upon a time everything
in France came from England; not
only clothes, but also our soiled
linen, which was sent across the chan
mel to be washed and then returned
to Paris with an immaculate white
ness. In other words, Paris was in
the hands Of the English and they de-
cided what clothes should be worn
and imposed that decision upon Eu-
rope. In due course came the silk
hat and, willy-nilly, Parisians were
obliged to adopt this awful form of
h~eadgear. America, by %inventing more
practical head coverings, has, to a
certain extent, liberated the world
from these hideous ~'stovepipes,' which
England was pleased to impose upon
us, and we are profoundly grateful to
the United States for this blessing"
