WHO'S T1MID?

Apropos of President Wilson's dec
laration that he is ASHAMED of the
timidity of American business men"
in the face of their foreign competit-
ors, Leslie M. Shaw, former secre-
tary of the treasury, points out that
the late J. J. Hill showed no such
timidity, that on the contrary, he
showed great courage and enterprise
in establishing a steamship line to
the Orient, that the Pacific Mail
Steamship Co. did the same thing, and
that President Wilson, by signing
the La Toilette bill, signed the death
warrant of American shipping on the
Pacific, turning it over to the Jap
anese, and Governor Shaw points out
further that it was "fear and tremb-
ling" in the face of what he con-
ceived to be the wishes of the labor
voters which made Mr.. Wilson sign
the seamanship bill He says fur
Their that the late E. H. Hartman
conceived the idea of great railway
system to traverse Mexico and con-
meet this country by rail with all the
Latin American republics and that by
his Mexican policy Mr.. Wilson has
set back that project at least half
a century, and that most of Mr.. Will
SON. s Mexican policy has been prompt
ed by his fear and trembling lest he
lose so much political capital AS
might be made by the Democratic
slogan, HE has kept us out OF war"

The first reports were that Baston

today would have seen the end of a

STATE TIMBER.

1t has been contended that the
state of Minnesota possessed no land
containing more than three million
feet of log lumber. This has never
been successfully contradicted until
the following statement of timber cut
by the Virginia & Rainy Lake Lum
Der company of Virginia, MIMI, was
made to Oscar Arneson, chief land
clerk of the state auditors office.
The statement shows that during
the present season on Sec. SO, Twp.
81, Range 20, Koochiching county,
the following timber was cut:
Pine and other timber
feet ................ 4,842, 40

Scaling fee ............ 509.24

The cut is acknowledged to be a
trifle less than five million feet of
log lumber, In every respect this
is the most complete and satisfactory
report of cutting received by timber
department of the state auditors Of
flee, according to Mr.. Arneson, and
shows disposition on the part of the
lumber companies, giving a better
and more accurate accounting to the
state for the products purchased.

LUXURIOUS TRAVEL.

Among the other ways in which the American people spend money freely nowadays is the common use of the ''parlor' or "chair" cars in travelling. Where formerly a train might have demand only for one such car, now it is not an uncommon sight on largely travelled routes for whole trains to be made up of these cars.
 There is a freedom of motion on the parlor car that saves many weary bones. You don't have to sit cooped up in narrow space unable to move without elbowing your seat mate. The smaller number of people in the car makes the ventilation far better. The reason why one is tired after a rail- road trip is more often lack of good air than any other cause.
 Still great many of the American people are necessarily economiZers. The downy plush and yielding cush- ions of the chair car are not for them. They see more of all kinds of life in the democratic day coach. Also no dusky interloper comes around with his brush broom. asking tips for ser vices one would rather perform for himself.

ALL EXPLOSIVES
 ARE BANNED BY
 JERSEY RULINGS

Jersey City, Aug. 2--Agents of the city commissioners were sent today to the terminals of all railroads en- tering this city to put into effect the order of the commissioners placing a ban on the storage of ammunition on piers in this city and upon its shipment through this city to steam CTS going to Europe.
 This action was taken because of the great explosion of ammunition at Black Tom Island. The order be- comes effective tomorrow afternoon. All the railroads having terminals here have received notice to discon- tinue moving the war-explosives through the city. The order directs that every freight train coming into Jersey City must be halted at the city line where the conductors will be re- quired to show his manifest and if this reveals that any of the cars con- tain explosives these cars will be ex- cluded. a'
 It was said today that the Lehigh Valley road and the Central Railroad of New Jersey, the chief shippers of the interdicted freight, had placed ar embargo on further shipments of ex- plosives. Officials of some of the railroads threatened to. obtain iniunctions re- straining the commissioners fl om bar ring explosives.
