THE 1914 OUTLOOK
BY A CITY EDITOR

The Minneapolis Tribune siz-
RS Up the outlook for 1914 in the
following optimistic comment:
in the northwest, the year
1914 will almost certainly be a
year of general business progress.
There will be no boom. But the
volume Of legitimate business
promises to set a new record.
The northwest is probably the
most nearly self-sustaining sec
ton Of the United States. It's
1913 crops have been large. There
has been no undue speculation.
Our banks regard the condition
Of our grain houses and general
commercial establishments as I'M
usually favorable. The new
tariff has given no indication, so
far, of disturbing these condi-
tions and the disposition in all
quarters is to find good, rather
than evil, in the new currency
act.
A general slump in other sec
tons would naturally restrict
the northwest In the absene Of
such general depression-and there
is no present ground to fear it
the northwest looks confidently
forward into one of its best years

Am~ Mz6~ol

How pitifully inadequate the meas
ures Of %precaution sometimes taken by
state legislatures for the safeguarding
of live stock interests against disease
is rather strikingly shown in the
writer's home state. The last session
Of the legislature appropriated $4,000
for the purpose Of equipping a serum
plant. In connection with this it may
be recited as a matter Of economic his
tory that since that time in one county
Of the state alone, Cerro Gordo, the
losses from hog cholera are put at
100000. and for the state as a whole
It is fair to assume that the losses Of
the past year will total between $780,
100000 and $70.000y0o0. It would seem
as II an industry Of. the importance Of
the hog industry Of the state was IN
titled to more protection than that AZ
forded BY 4 $4,000 appropriation.

PUT PEOPLE TO SLEEP
WITHOUT MEDICINE

Doubling Thomasses may be
skeptical, but nevertheless repu-
table physicians come boldly for
ward with the statement that
DR.. William H. Fitzgerald of
Hartford, Conn, has discovered a
new and simple way of producing
anesthesia in any part Of the
body by pressure on certain nerv
centers of the tongue, mouth,
throat, and pharynx. If the re-
port is true, and the discovery
provse ut all practical, it will woil
a revolution in the department
of anesthetics, and mean the
Punishment Of the ether bottle to
oblivion.
DR.. Fitzgerald's work in search
ing for the secrets Of the great
nervous system of the body serv-
es to show how the medical prac-
titioner is constantly endeavor-
ing to imprive the method and
the usefulness of medical science,
to relieve the pain and suffer
ing and prolong the lives Of his
patients. The nonmedical public
has absolutely no conception Of
the vast improvements which +
annually being made in the field
of medicine. Only the best and
most industrious physicians and
surgeons are able to keep up
with the advance Of medical sci
ence, whose triumphs prove that
the age of miracles, far from be-
ing ended, is only nicely begun

POLITICAL POT IS
BOILING IN MCLEAN

The campaign for Mclean
county will be based on the cleo
ton Of a state senator, and even
at this early date there are sew
eral pronounced candidates.
The campaign among the var
ious candidates for states attor-
ney will be complicated and will
be linked with the state senator
ship. Combinations have been
formed and several candidates
have commenced their campaign.
Hon. John E.. Williams of
Turtle Lake, for states attorney.
Williams is a young attorney Of
influence. He has been state SEN
ator from Mclean county the
past four years, and gained an
eminent standing with his con-
stituents.
One combination is the candi-
dacy Of Attorney j. Z. Nelson Of
Garrison for state senator, and
that Of Attorney j. 7. McCnlloch
of Washburn for states attorney.
McCulloch and Nelson were once
law partners at Washburn. Both
have been states attorneys OF
Mclean county, and their extern
sive acquaintance over the coun-
Cy gives them a strong prestige
Mccullough is also a pioneer and
a political war-horse. During the
past year there has been a warm
friendship between McCulloch and
Satterlund and both have been
pronounced against Attorney c.
f. Maennel, the present states at
torney because of the failure to
secure convictions III a few i'm
portant cases that had been left
to .juries to determine.
Maennel is also a candidate for
reelection. He has served but one
term. He will go before the .peo-
pie Of the county denouncing
these alleged political combina-
tons which he claims have been
arranged to bring about his de-
feat. He will show that he has
served the people with a clean
economical administration, that
law violators have been more
thoroughly prosecuted than any
time in the history of the county.
He also believes that by. keep
ing out of combinations he will
stand an even chance to be re-
elected.
Another candidate for states at
torney is Attorney H. +. O'Hare:
a young attorney at Garrison.
He has already commenced his
candidacy but is not connected
with any Of the combinations.
He was assistant states attorney
during the administration Of j.. E.
Nelson. Still another attorney
who may become a candidate for
the place is Attorney R. L..
Fraser, also of Garrison.-Bis-
marck Tribune.

1914 WILL PROBABLY
BE A WET YEAR

Bismarck, d., Dec. Blowing
to the mild weather which has
prevailed over North Dakota
during December, and the alb
sence Of snow, the old saying, "a
green Christmas is productive of
a fat graveyard" is frequently
heard. During the past twenty
one years, OF since 1898, there
have been but four Christmases
(including the once just past)
with practically no snow on the
ground. These were 1894, 1898,
1905 and 1918. There is no data
to show that this condition has
any effect on the death rate, but
it is an interesting fact that the
precipitation for the year follow
ing the first three dates was abov
the normal, and it naturally
follows that the season Of 1914
may produce more than the nor
NAL rainfall. Nature has a way
of averaging her resources, and
a dry winter would therefore in
dictate a wet spring. There has
been a deficiency Of nearly five
inches in the annual precipita-
ton for North Dakota during the
present year, which should be an
added factor in the theory that
nature will ~equalize matters and
make the year 1914 q wet one.

which CAUSED considerable damage, but
no known loss OF life, was in evidence
off the southeastern coast today, al
though the center was somewhere be

to be the barrier against further prog

course 10 the northeast and it was pre-
dicted that the gale would blow itself
to pieces off Nantucket. The grounding
