Will Spend -Four Days in
Steele County Next Week.

During the past few years the Blu
of Biological Survey of the U.
S. Department of Agriculture haye
been experimenting with different
gopher poisons. They wanted to get
something that was easily mixed,
would stand rains, last indefinitely,
effective and yet cheaper than most
poisons commonly used. This they
have been successful in doing.
a. T.. Nelson, County Agricultural
Agent, has arranged with Mr.. Elmer,
of the above Bureau, for a series of
demonstrations to be held in Steele
County mex week. AT these demon
stratiOns the method of preparing the
poison will be shown, the proper
methods of placing explained and a
quantity of poison given to each farm
en- who attends to take home and try
out on his own farm. The poison has
been used to some extent in the county
this spring and has proven very sue
ccssful.

ton ,.earest your farm which will he

A CAPABLE MAN IN
A SIZED JOB

The Mandan Pioneer has a
splendid article on the candidacy
of State Auditor Jorgenson. After
stating that Mr.. J. is the best
qualified state auditor North Da-
kota has had. the Pioneer takes
up the critism made on him be-
cause of the tax schedule, and
says that if he was wrong in that
II thing, what about the hun
dreds of other things in which he
has faithfully served the stare.
But the Pioneer contends that he
WAS moi wrong there. 1t says:"jIe
worked along lines suggested by
the state tax commission, who
have made the subject of taxation
an especial study. The tax com
mission recommended that a
change be made to a form similar
to that now in use. The Jorgcn-
son schedule follows ont that slug
gestion and improves upon it, and
IS 4 clean cut arrangement. IF
any blame is to be attached to Mr..
jorg2nson on account of the now
schedule, then equal blame should
J." attached to the state tax com
mission for suggesting il and to
the secretary OF that commission.
the latter Of whom is now a candi-
date against Mr.. Jorgcnson and
wins is his chief yiIitiar,
''lt is seldom that a state, dine
to the intricate workings of our
election laws, is able to call to a
position, such as that Of state
auditor, a man so peculiarly fitted
for the office rs is AIR. Jorgensol4,
not only from the character OF The
man himself, but because Of his
especial IitnpsS for tho duties Of
that office. When q man in h1si-
ness secures the services of q cou.
s,ielitipns and honorable cmplnycc
Il" will make every effort to retain
his services. And that is Just the
attitude that this state should
take in regard to public servants.
Mr.. ~]orgcnson can much better
afford to do without the office of
>ta1G auditor than the people of
the state of Norm Dakota can az
ford to do without him for he is
a capable official in q man-sizcd

suffrage.
 Every one of the twelve equal suffrage states is to be visited by Mrs. Boissevain in her whirlwind stump speaking swing around the circle. The trip is to follow practically the same route as the suffrage special' covered on it's historic tour early in the summer Leaving Chicago Oct. 3 Mrs. Boissevain will be on the stump for the Womans s Party in the west until election day. Regular stops will be made at impor- tant points in each state, with numer- ous platform speeches at many places where the train makes short stops.
 Miss Milholland, when she married Eugene Boissevain, a citizen of The Netherlands, lost her American citizen ship. This law applies only to Amer ican women, not to American men talk ing foreign wives.
 By profession she is lawyer, prac- ticing in New York. She attempted to enter Harvard and Columbia univer- sity law schools, but being a woman was denied admission. She graduated in law from New York University Law school. Previously she had been edu- cated abroad and at Nassar. She has been active in various social and eco- homie movements, having been an agitator for the labor organizations in the shirtwaist and laundry strikes in New York
 Mrs Bossevain is tall, athletic striking in appearance and of stately beauty. She rode milk white horse as herald of the famous suffrage parade in Washington or the day before the inauguration of President Wilson. The suffragists on that occasion, as is well i recalled, were subjected to many indig- mites by the hooting crowd which lined Pennsylvania avenue on both sides. Among the principal stops which Mrs Boissevain will make are: Chicago, Oct 3; Sheridan, Wyo., Oct. 5; Billings Mont, Oct. 6; Cheyenne, Oct. 8; Boise Oct. 9; Portland, Oct. 10; Seattle Oct | II; Spokane, Oct.

Conscription In Ireland

Whether or not there is any real purpose by British statesmen apply the conscription O Ireland, whether the question is being agtated only for political purposes for the embarrassment Premier Asquith, is yet matter of doubt. But what may be the great need of Great Britain for diers in the field for workmen the muniton factories should be a further combing of Eng land and Scotland and the British domnions beyond the before the application of conscrpton should be made to Ireland.
 The Irish people. a rule. feel that they little to Great Britain, and the feeling has been pro- nounced since the of last ending with the execution of Sir Roger Easement But above all, is the denial to Ireland of the of self gov which is enjoyed by practically every outly- ing possession of Great Britain.
 Moreover, when the Irish read of the great crowds in attendance upon in England, of the triumph athletes tennis courts and on the golf links audiences which pack London thea ters. they naturally believe that before compusion should be visited upon them there should be a more rigid application of conscription at home.
 We find in the London Observer of three weeks ago. the following dispatch:
 Brisbane Sept Is
 MT Ryan, Premier of Queensland is in favor of increasing soldiers pay.
 Tt is anomalous" he said, that men should risk their lives for 6s day when they receive double that amount in civil employment Conscrption of wealth 1T pay doubled, there would be little difficulty in obtaining sufficient number of volunteers" "-Reuter
 This is a sentiment which is said to be gen erally prevalent in the colonies; that while the ars tocracy is pretty well represented in the trenches there is still large number of the upper upper middle class and the wealthy to draw upon, but who for one reason or another, appear to be exempt

 If such feeling prevails in loyal Canada what be the sentiment in Ireland, where the pathes of centuries have been lately and rudely reawakened?
