that Pennington county products will

SEA FIGHT SPOILED FOREVER
At Least So Far as Beinq Favorite
Theme for Artists Is
Concerned

Truman H. Newberry's comments on
our naval equipment serve to remind
US that favorite theme of the artist
the sea battle-is spoiled forever.
Modern vessels fight at from ten to
seventeen miles, if they fight at all,
and thrilling pictures such as JONES'
Perry, Farragut, Nelson and Dewey
have inspired probably will not be
painted again.
Marine warfare has become very
largely matter of hide-and-seek any,
way. So far has the gunmaker out
stripped the armorplate builder that
were equally matched vessels to en-.
gage, a few seconds firing would re-
duce millions Of dollars worth Of
ships to scrap-iron shambles.
And when the skulking menace Of
the submarine is considered we can
understand how completely the ira
ditions of sea fighting have been up
set.
It was predicted that modern war
fare on land would be stripped of all
it's former aspects, but we are told of
bayonet charges, Of trenches 40 yards
apart, of steel helmets and even of full
suits Of armor being used. Yet on the
sea what destruction has been
wrought has been through methods,
far removed from the old-fashioned'
stand.up fight through which heroes of
other days won their fame.

Time Didn't Matter.

A prominent lawyer tells this tale
Of the hills Of Kentucky. He had been
In Jackson during the hearing of q
big land case, and after the strain OF
several weeks in the courtroom had
decided to take trip up in the noun
tains and enjoy the quieting influences
Of the hills. He travelled the paths
and narrow mountain roads till he
found himself, at the end of several
days journey, about forty or fifty
miles from the railroad. It was about
noon, the lawyer judged, for his watch
had run down and he could not be
exact. But in the midst of this deep con.
temptation the lawyer came upon an
old darby sitting upon a bowlder
longside the road.
What time have you?" he asked OF
the old darby.
well, sub, boss, the old watch says
she's about ten minutes to twelve"
was the reply.
rs that sun time or railroad timer"
again questioned the lawyer.
What difference does that make1

Sold States Timber.

Sold States Timber.
That timber from state land valued
at $4,000 to $4,000 has been cut un.
der government permits and the mo
ney paid into the Indian funds came
to the attention of State Auditor J.
A. 0. Preus in report from B. F..
Case, timber land clerk in his depart.
ment. Mr.. Case wrote from Cass
Lake, where he has been investigating
the matter, and he was called in i'm
mediately by Mr. Preus for a confer
ence. How the government happen,
ed to sell timber of state land is not
known. The state will have to or
der a scale Of the tops and stumps
and put in a claim, which it may take
all act of congress to satisfy.
Il am finding considerable state
land" wrote Mr.. Case, from which
the timber has been cut under gov.
eminent sale and supervision during
the last 10 or IL years. A stump and
top scale of each description should be
made and / believe it will reveal that
100000 to 15,000,000,00o feet of pine
timber has been cut from state. At
the government sale price, this would
bring $4,000 to $75,000.'
Mr.. Preus does not know how the
government happened to sell timber
from lands patented to the state, and
Will have an inquiry made at once.
