the war is long continued it is prob

number and quality.
This war has emphasized as never
before the great Importance of the
horse to mankind Much has been
written about how the automobile
would displace him. but with the gaso-
line motor at its height as means of
locomotion both in war and in peace,
there is, nevertheless. greater demand
for horses than ever before. 1t is in
teresting at this point to glance back
and note that when railroads were in
vented it was also prophesied that the
horse would become extinct. AS mat
ter of fact. one breed of horses. known
as the "Contestogas." which were
the only native breed OF American dray

Value of Mules
Long Appreciated

days often rode mules in preference to
horses, because these animals soon
learned the scent of Indians, and gave
warning OF the approach of the hostfies
by moving their long ears back and
forth in an effort to locate the danger
by sound
II would seem at glance that to
take large number of horses from
farms and ranges and place them on
the battlefield would be to cause end
loss confusion. And. indeed. it must be
a irving experience for a peaceful eX-
plowhorse to be suddenly converted
into a charger. But horses, IKE men.

alone viii do SO with great spirit when
he is one of a thousand. In the same
way, horses that have never before
heard gun soon become good cavalry
mounts when worked beside veteran
chargers.
Much has been written about how
quickly horse flesh is used up at the
front The length of time that
horse lives has been variously esti-
mated by correspondents at from fve
to six days to three weeks. There IS
reason to believe, however. that the
average life of horse in battle line
is a good deal more than this. Ihus
in the civil war statistics show that
the average cavalry horse gave three
or four months of use. In the Boer
war the average was only three weeks,
but this was largely because the
horses were not acclimated and many
of them died of disease. While the
present war is more destructive in
many ways than either the Boer in
surrection or the civil war, there is
no reason to believe that it should be
much harder on horse flesh. as much
of the fighting is done at very long
ranges. SO that horses are used only
for moving supplies and guns behind
the lines.

NOT STRONGER.

President Wilson is no, stronger

in the various states are any indica-
ton, Those who admire the chief ex.
ecutive have tried to place his popL.
larity above that of the party he rep
resents. If we read the political signs
Alright, the popularity of Wilson and
of his party do not vary very muca.
We will not have to 60 any farther
than New Jersey, where the Wilson
machine was unable to control the
legislature. The President made suf-
frage a personal matter, out ne was
overwhelmed. New Jersey In COM
mon with three other eastern states
decided that they did not raise their
daughters to be voters"
The Progressive party has dssolv-
ed. This is the admission of Medill
Mccormick, chairman of the national
Progressive committee. NO better
authority is needed to support this
fact.
Wilson was not the popular choice
at the polls in 1912 and every Incl
cation is that he will be less popular
in 1916. He has lost, not only the
large majority in Congress, but with
the retirement of Underwood from
the House, the leadership falls into
even more unfriendly hands. Repre-.
sentative Claude Kitchin has come
out openly against President Wilson

INSPECTION OF METERS.

Both the consumers and public util-
tiles will benefit through the inspec-
ton of meters. 1t is wise step fpr
the city commission to take. Bis
marck has reached a point in her
growth wien regulatory ordinances
are necessary.
There is another field which the
city commission has neglected, and
that is in building and plumbing in.
spection. The necessity for a strict
building code is apparent as the city
grows. Fire limits should he set and
rigidly adhered to. Within these dis
tricts only fre-proof buildings should
be allowed. This, in connection with
greater water pressure, will do much
to cut down the fire hazards and de.
crease the cost of insurance.
When work begins upon codifying
the city ordinances preparatory to
having them published, 1t would be
well to see that the various ordi-
nances relative to buildings be thor
oughly revamped and a standardized
building code adopted; one that will
pass the underwriters test.
