l have no hesitancy in making the
conteGtion that the Office OF State
warehouse commissioner is a Stata
Office, as it is created by statute, the
commissioner elected by the legisla-
ture, a $4,000 surety bond is given
by him, and he holds the commission
of the governor under the great seal
of the State.
This is the first election year since
the Office was created at the special
session Of the general assembly in
October, 1914. The commissioner was
reelected at the session of the general
assembly in January, and his success
sor will be chosen at the session Of
the general assembly which coavenes
on the second Tuesday in January,
1918. before another primary election.
Therefore, both tae rules Of the party
and the statute law Of this State pro-
vide hat the people shall ballot for
his successor in the primary to be
held in August Of this year. The re-
suit of the primary Will be a recon-
me 2dat!on to the legislature, just as
the result of the primary for United
States senator was a recommends
ton to the legislature before the
amendment to the feaeral constitution
providing for the direct election OF
L. tied States senator.
Such is the law. To refuse to allow
the State warehouse commissioner to
enter the campaign as such would
abridge his rights

For the State convention to refuse
to graft it would be tantamount to
discrimination against the warehouse
commissioner, in violation of law,
and the choosing of his successor
would be before the people in August
after he had been debarred the right
given to all other candidates to go

sramme outlined by the party.

TWISTING OF RULES
is NOT REQUESTED
Aull Contends That Warehouse Com
missioner Must Be Elected BY
Direct Vote Of People.

To the Editor of The State:
The resolution adopted by the
State Warehouse association at its
meeting on May 8, requesting the
State convention which meets on
Wednesday to give the State ware
house commissioner a place in the
regular programme of speakers at the
various campaign meetings this sum
mer, seems to be regarded by The
State as a special privilege and by
some others as a request which, if al
lowed, would result in the rules OF
the Democratic party not beirg fol
lowed strictly. Both views are wrong.
The resolution does not ask any spe-
cial privilege, nor does it seek any
charging or twisting Of the rules.
By an act approved by Gov. Man
ming on February 20, 1915, the rules
of the Democratic party we're made

other things, this act of 1915 (page

To a better land above;

For those you dearly love.
And just now a word to the choppers.
For we are many indeed;
Now is the time for harvest,
And there are many in need.

Send protection abroad in the land;
Think of the poor widows and or

Help everyone that you can.

@PASS A Law"

Our local reporter has frequently
referred to the wild rush which seizes
the people of this community when
the fire bell rings, and has pointed
out the Stiffness of it, and the danger
OF it. 1t seems to have fallen on
deaf ears, or the people have not
read, or they do not care, or they be-
come momeatarily insane. The worst
that We hare noticed took place on
Wednesday afternoon when the
alarm went in. 1t seemed that the
whole town had turned out, and au-
tomobiles and Fords and motorcycles
and bicycles and buggies and foot
men and all the poulation was in a
frenzy of excitement and doing down
the street like they were wild men
from Borneo. They get in the way
OF the firemeap and endanger the life
of the people who are on the streets.
And to what purpose? They could
do no good when they reached the
fire, if there had been one. They
would be in the way of the firemen.
They endanger human life. We are
forced to believe that they are suf-
fering case of temporary mental
alteration, and should be taken into
custody, for they are not responsible.
In the lot you will see old men, who
are staid and steady ordinarily. but
are swept away by the fire alarm. In
stead of the bell or whistle would it
not be better to have system Of
alarm that would awake the firemen
and call them out and let them get to
the fire before the streets are block
ed by those who have no business
there, and are only in the way when
they get there?
We do not believe in so many laws
and regulations, but in this day it
seems almost necessary to regulate
everything by law, and if this thing
is kept up there should be some sort
of law by which the officers could
take temporary possession of a large
portion Of our population when the
fire alrm is sounded, and hold them
still at least until the fremen can
reach the fire.
We understand that on Wednesday
a bicycle or a motorcycle or a. Ford
or some sort Of flying thing ran afoul
cne Of our good citizens who was
standing in front of his place of busi-
ness, and Knocked him down and it
might have been Serious affair, but
fortunately he was not badly hurt.

it at the present prices.
Milk at eight or nine cents a quar-,

its food value in comparison with the

ON GUNS.

In order to make much of a success
of hunting, you have to use a gun, for
the age of sings and spears has
passed peacefully to rest, and our
game has become sophisticated to
such an extent that it becomes neces-
sary to be able to reach it at very
considerable distance. But it takes a
wise man tn select a really good gun,
for there are perverse guns, mean
guns and diabolically uncertain guns,
all over this fair land. and the average
hardware dealer doesn't know a front
sight from a windguage. So, perhaps
a few terse words from gun crank
will be tolerated by a long suffering
public.
There is the single shot rifle, which
allows you to miss once and lose your
game forever. or to wound 1t and have
no chance of finishing it, or, once in
thousand years to plug it in the eye
and call it fondly your own.
There is the lever action repeater,
which is the most popular Of hunting
rifles. but which sometimes jams In
a critical moment, causing profanity
and personal danger from the shootee
to the shooter, provided the shots
that had previously been fired were
not properly addressed before sending.
There is the automatic, which car
ries on the long trail like a bundle
of pig iron, and is balanced like a
spade. which speaks it's little piece on
the firing line like a machine gun, and
usually kills or wounds something, Cor
somebody before it has emptied it's
contents over the autumn landscape.
There is the bolt action repeater,
modelled after the German Mauser,
which takes a cartridge as long as the
list of indictments against Standard
Oil, and which is responsible for the
common practice in vogue among the
more experienced hunters of the far
North, South, East and West, of put
ting a lot of salt on the bullet to in
sure the games keeping until the
marksman can get to it after shooting.
This sort Of bullet will shoot through
a big tree, and nail a man on the
far side with verve and enthusiasm
a-plenty.
Then there is the slide or from
bone action repeater, which rattles like
a Ford when the theoretical still-hunt-
err creeps quietly through the woods.
making no more noise than Barnum &
Bailey creates in passing through the
main street on his way to the Fair
Grounds. When a hunter armed with
one of these modern burglar alarms
goes into the woods. immigration of
all game Immediately commences, and
the tall timber become a regular zoo,
while everything that cannot travel
long distances in short time roosts as
high as possible.
Any Of these aforementioned guns
work beautifully when they are feeling
well, but on Off days many a fervid
hunter winds his new repeater around
sturdy oak and wends his way home
ward with a blue trail in the air be-
hind him. merely because a shell jam
med when he had the one chance Of
the season to make good on his prom
Use to the family. So If you really
want a deer, bear, or moose, look up a
reliable guide and tell him SO.
