From Our Exchanges
THE VALUE OF A FRIEND

blessed thing it is for any man or woman to
have friend; human soul whom we can trust
utterly; who knows the best and the worst of US,
speak the honest truth u.s. while the world atters
us to our face and laughs at us behind our back:
who will give no counsel aud reproof in the dav of
prosperity and self-concet but who, again, will
comfort and encourage in the days of difficulty
and sorrow. when the world leaves US alone to fight
our battles can. If we have had the one good
fortune to win such friend let us do anything
rather thar lose him.
We must give and forgive, live and let live If
our friends have faults we must bear with them We
must hope all things, endure all things, rather than
lose that most precious of all earthly POSSESSIONS
trusty friend. And a friend once won need never
be lost, if we will only be trusty and true to our
selves.
Friends may part, not merely in body but in
spirit for awhile. In the hustle of business and the
accidents of life they may lose sight of each other
for years. and more-they may begin to differ in
their in life, in their opinions in their hab-
its, and there may be for time GOODNESS and es-
arrangement between them; but not forever if each
will be trusty and true. For then, according to the
beautiful figure of the poet, they will be like two
ships which set sail at morning from the port,
and ere nightfall lose sight of each other and 90
each its course, and at it's own pace for
many days, thru many storms and seas and yet
meet again and find themselves lying side by side in
the same haven, when their long voyage is past

An Appreciation
Mcclellan Paper Co.,
Mr.. G. S. Reed, Warden,
Minnesota State Prison,

Minnesota State Prison,
Saltwater, MINI.
We believe few words at this time regarding
the visit of our Ball Team to your prison Sat-
urday afternoon would not be amiss We, one and
all, thoroly enjoyed and appreciated your hospital
ity. and nothing but the very highest words of
mendation for officers of our State Prison can be
heard from those who were in our party. In fact,
many of us, somewhat surprised at the will
ingness manifested by those in charge there to
the volume of auctions hurled at them in
our nquistiveness to learn the many interesting
features of our State Prison.
Comment on the ball game we believe is un-
necessary, other than the assertion that we take
our defeat in good grace. 1t was the second game
this year that we found ourselves the of
the smaller number of runs when the game was all
over, and the boys there are to be complimented
on their playing and especially their pitcher, who
gave US our only whte-wash in two years.
We can only say that we would like an oppor-
tuniy to come to Saltwater again for return game
and will be pleased to have you accord US this per-
mission at the earliest date that you may have an
opening, providing that it is in no way conflicting
with the rules of your institution permit the same
team there twice in the same season.
We don't know whether you permit ball game
there on Labor Day not, if you do and have no
team scheduled at the present time, we will be more
than pleased to fill this date, it would enable us
to leave earlier in the day, so that we could be
shown through the prison. the opportunity for which
missed Saturday, owing to being late in
irving.
Tell the boys thru your weekly Mirror that
did the best that could to beat them, but we
could MT go quite fast enough. If given oppor-
tunity in the future, we believe that we can make
them take least the smaller end of the score even
tho it may not be cipher.
Very Respectfully Yours,
Mcclellan Paper Company

Japan imported nearly a billion
pounds of raw cotton in 1915, compar
ed with s27, 900, 1000 pounds the year
before. This cotton was worked up in
to cloth and a considerable portion of
it came into this country, because of
the 40 per cent cut in the tariff on
cotton wearing apparel, enacted by the
Democrats. Japan is also driving us out
of the Chinese market ON cotton goods.
The reason Is very plain. japanese la
borers work IL hors a day in the tex
tile mills. Female spinners receive 1917
cents a day; weavers IA cents. Male
weavers receive 2212 cents. Dyers get
20 cents. We may expect competition
with Japan to increase so long as the
Democratic tariff law is on the statute
books.

ment to the Senate the other day. II
was a resolution adopted by the Ma
tional Democratic club of New York
City favoring the government ship
purchase bill, and this was one of the
reasons given: "Owing to American
standards of wages, safety at sea and
humane conditions of labor for Amer1-
can seamen, private enterprise cannot
be relied upon to provide the ships,
because experience has demonstrated
that private capital cannot successful
ly compete against the handicap of
lower standards maintained by other
maritime nations"
AS an idea in economics that is a
gem. Suppose it were followed out IN
our manufacturing industries. Ameri-
can laboring men receive higher wages
and they operate under more humane
conditions than those prevailing
abroad. Is the National Democratic
club of New York in favor of having
the government operate our factories
that %accountf Is government own
to be the fate of any industry
which aecords fair treatment to labors
Why is this club for government own

JAPAN A LIVELY
COMPETITOR

Keep your eye on Japan. Not only
is Japan substituting her industries
and her merchant marine, but a Demo
cratic administration is giving her a
larger opportunity in our market. Dur
ing the eight months of the fiscal year
1916, ended February Last, japan sent
intot our market $sS,50O, 900 worth of
goods. Nearly $20,O0O,00O more than
for the same period ended February,
1915, which was also under the Demo
cratic tariff law. The records show u
steady monthly increase in japanese
goods coming into our market, begin
ming with $9,000,0 900 in July, 1915, and
rising to $13, 900 in February last.
But our exports to Japan do not
record a normal increase, in spite of
the fact that the European source of
supply is considerably hampered, and
the United States is the logical source
from which to make up the deficiency.
Exports for the eight months ended
February, 1916, totaled s40,500,000
practically what they were during the
eight months ended February, 1913,
under the Republican law. During
the 1914 period ending February, there
was a terrific slump in our export
trade with Japan, the total being $27,-
600, 000, and five months of the eight
being under the Democratic tariff law.
Another matter worthy of serious
consideration is that Japan is deliver
ing her merchandise in her own bot
toms. The figures for February are not
available, but those for the seven
months ended January, 1915, show that
japanese vessels delivered to our ports
$35, 100000 worth of goods. Japan sent
to US $4,000, 900 worth. The seamen 8
law was operative for but three
months of that period. That law put
American vessels on the Pacific coast
out of business and Japan controls the
Pacific Ocean today. During the seven
Japan brought to US in her own vessels
merchandise to the value of $78,000,
900. Her total exports to us for that
period amounted to $75,000,00O, so it
would appear that japan is using her
trans-oceanic delivery wagons to carry
every dollars worth of her goods to
our ports, and something over, thanks
to the seamen' s law.
If there wa ever a combination cal
eulated to put the United States off
the commercial map it is the Under
wood tariff law and the seamen's law.
The bill of particulars against the
Democratic party requires nothing
than the citation of those two !

to try the experiment Of placing a
man on the improved streets with
brushes and a garbage wagon. to dis
cover whether or not the thorough
fares of Commerce and Water streets
could be kept presentsble in this man
ner. The operation of a street sweep
ing machine is very expensive and the
Commissioners determined not to re-
sort to this until their other plan had
been tried. During the last few weeks
they have found that the one man
could meet all the demands and that
Centreville's streets could be kept in
good condition without the outlay of
money that would be required to Op-

WHEAT CROP
IS VERY POOR

There will be but very little good
milling wheat raised in North Dakota
this year, as the hot weather and rust
has caused so much damage that many
fields will not be cut at all, and those
that are harvested and threshed the
samples will be of a very low grade.
It is safe to say that here in Ramsey
county, and the same conditions pre-
walls over the greater part of the
state, that there will not be over 25
per cent of a normal crop. What
promised to be bumper crop month
ago has dwindled so that farmers have
come to realize that if they get ex-
penses out of their wheat crop they
will be doing well.
