STATE CROP CONDITIONS

Weather conditions the past week
have as a rule been highly favorable
for crop growth. Although the wea-
Their has continued slightly cooler
than the ~seasonable average over the
western portion of the state, the tenn
perature was near or above normal in
the central and eastern counties. A.
ter the extended period of unusually
cool weather of the last few weeks
the warm days of the past week have
been much needed. Good showers
have occurred throughout the state
with the exception Of the extreme
southern and south central portions.
Some damage from hail was report
ed in scattered localities in the north
ern and central counties. Small
grains are reported in fine condition.
Alfalfa harvest is about finished in
some of the western counties, and in
the eastern part of the state with a
good, average yield. Corn is back
ward due to the cool weather of the
+. past month.

plant that has recently been completed
by the prisoners in the state ~peniten-
tiary at Deer Lodge. With the COM
pletion of the new plant the state will
be enabled to secure bricks for struc-
lures to be built by the state at a
cost of $3.50 a thousand instead Of
50 in the old state plant at Deer
Lodge or $12 a thousand from indie
pendent manufacturers. Some Of the
product of the new plant will be util-
lied in the near future on extensive
improvements at the state asylum fol
the insane at Warm Springs and at the
state tuberculosis sanitarium.

Rather than pay a commission of
over $4,000 On the bond issue of $780,
900 required to build the improve
ments at the state hospital for the
insane at Warm Springs and for the
state tuberculosis sanitarium at Ga
len, in addition to the interest, the
state entered into competition with
eastern bond houses last week, and de-
cided to purchase the issue itself. It
is understood that the bond companies
were prompted to make such unfavor-
able bids because of the fact that the
bonds only drew 4 per cent interest,
ran for five years and were redeem
able at the option of the state in
three years.

WHILE it is unfortunate that there
should be any disagreement in Presi-
dent Wilson's cabinet regarding the
policy of the administration at critl-
cal time when it is doing its best to
keep out of foreign entanglements, the
resignation of Secretary Bryan need
have no greater significance than that
a change will be for the best. Having
signed the first note to Germany re-
questing cessation of under-sea war
fare, Secretary Bryan evidently was
ready to back down rather than insist
on our rights under international law.
The Bryan policy has been weak all the
way, from the Mexican trouble down,
and the president will be thankful that
the cabinet is rid of him. In times like
this the country needs men of iron, not
cutters. The "Prince Of Peace" is at
his best on the Chautauqua platform,
but a good deal of misfit in the cabi-
net

INSURANCE COMMISSIONER EKERN has
furnished us statistics compiled In his
office which show the fire losses in Ed
gerton during 1914 were $13, 725.91 and
that the companies collected $38, 791.72
In premiums or less than half the
amount paid for protection. The 315
cities and villages in Wisconsin having
fire departments during 1914 paid
Sc, 701, 065 in premiums and received in
return So, 152, 654 for losses. The peo-
pie thus paid in premiums $212. 81 for
each 500 returned for losses. From
1911 to 1914, inclusive, the premiums
paid were $25, 949, 657 and the losses
paid were $11, 161, 270, making the pre-
miums $3.50. Is for each 500 returned
for losses. These figures indicate that
the people of this state are paying
good round price for their insurance,
and is at least one good argument in
favor of the, bill which the insurance
commissioner desires to have passed
for state supervision of rates. 1t IS OF
we'll known fact that the percentage a
premiums to losses fiuctuate and such
statistics may be in a measure mis-
leading. Only last season over S20O, 600
of tornado losses were paid In this To-
cality-more money than the companies
will get back from the business In
years from the same territory. We
have in mind that possibly Commits
sioner Ekern is trying to brace up his
plan of state insurance by sending
broadcast these statistics. We doubt
if the public are ready to go with him
that far as yet. If we are paying too
high for insurance, a state regulation
of rates would be preferable.

THE present legislature recently
passed, and the governor signed the
bill requiring all employers to pay their
EMPLOYEES twice a month. The bill
which has now become a law excerpts
three classes of employers, one being
lumbermen. By this law, as we under
stand it, farmer who hires a man for
the season is required to pay him
twice month A great many farmers
hire their men for the season In order
to secure the services of an exper-
fenced man at harvest time. Under
the law, as it now exists, the employee
can require the farmer to pay him
every two weeks or twice month,
and, having received his money, can
leave when harvesting time arrives,
with practically no redress to the
farmer. 1t is our observation that en-
ployers and employees can generally
adjust this matter satisfactorily be-
tween themselves, and this bit of leg
islation is another meddlesOme inter
ference with business. and under no
circumstances can we find justification
for it. We likewise do not see any
reason for excepting lumbermen from
the rule that applies to farmers, mer-
chants and other business men in the
state. Sank County Democrat.

THE fate of the administration meas
ures intended to consolidate commits
sions and economic in state expenses
will doubtless be decided in the senate
this week. Three of these bills have
already passed the assembly and are in
the hands of the upper house for con-
sideration. If they fail there the
blame will rest upon remnant of hold
over senators who have opposed every
reform advanced by the governor to-
wards simplifying and reducing the
cost of state government. A slender
majority has thus far been with the
administration. If it can hold its lines
there will be a saving to the taxpayers
of nearly half million dollars year
in state expenses. The question is,
can the opposition afford to defeat
them?

HOWEVER the submarine may be de-
Spised as an adjunct to warfare, 1t is
performing some maneuverS which eX-
cite wonder and amazement. The ad-
ventures described in Jules Verne's
Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the
Sea" will lack in interest beside the
trips which may yet be taken by this
deep sea diver. Flying machines have
long been anticipated as the balloon is
as old as antiquity, but the submarine
has already performed featS which
challenge the bOldest imagination. The
real exploits of the daring submarines
in the present war will not be known
until after the war, if ever they are
divulged, but what is already known of
their work is enough to forsee a means
for obtaining scientific knowledge OF
under the sea matters which we never
had before. The raising of the IA
from depth of nearly 800 feet In Hon
olulu harbor is almost finished and the
cause of this disaster will no doubt be
revealed The fact that diver de-
scended to so great depth Is reason
enough to suppose that when perfected
the submarine can go to very great
depth with safety to the crew. The
accident to the F-4 and the breaking
down of the other submarines will re-
suit in a correction of the defects by
the naval experts. There may have
existed some prejudice to the subma-
rine before the European war but any
such prejudice must now give way.
The continued exploits of the subma-
rine show that it is capable of very eff
fective service and the work it may do
as an aid to salvaging sunken ships
may be very great. Also as means
of scientific study of the ocean bed it
may add materially to the acquisition
of knowledge of the earth's formation.
The submarine has already robbed the
battleship of much of its utility and
much of its Importance. Several bat
tleships have gone down under its
steady attacks without much danger to
the submarine. AS a coast defense it
will take the place to large extent OF
forts. Any increase in the navy must
contemplate a greater number OF sub
marines unless some manner for de-
tecting their presence is found which
might make them easy TO destroy

Flag Day.


Monday, June 18th, is Flag Day, a
day to be observed by all citizens.
There is to be no public observance of
the day, but every one is asked to do
his share in making the flag as much in
evidence as possible in the day set
apart for that purpose. At this time
when so many great nations have taken
up arms against each other, there is
more need of patriotic teachings in our
states than before, as today the United
States is the greatest nation on the
earth. The citizens are requested to
hang out the flag from their offices and
residences so that every section of the
city may be decorated with the national
emblem.

majority of the well-known platform
artists. The entertainments will con-
sist of classical, popular and sacred
solos, duets and quartette numbers.
The whole program will not be made
up of vocal numbers alone. Mr.. Rey-
nolds, the manager, is trombone

group are adopts with Instruments, so

of that distracted country that anarchy
must cease and stable government OF
some sort be established. Who shall
