Milking Is Done After Men Have
Worked Hard in Field.

In many localities the farmer VINO
milks many cows finds 1t the hardest
TO procure help. Is this because the
milking is done after a full day has

as much a part of the farm work as

TAXPAYERS in the northern states

made to the members of congress the
other day ty ex-Speaker Cannon, in re-
plying to question of Congressman
Jack Garner of Texas. Mr.. Cannon
declared that member on the demo
cratic side had said to him: "Well, it
does not make any difference how we
vote the expenditures; you fellers
north have got to pay them" When
southern democrats speak of the north
they include the west as well. The
south has had its fling during the past
four years. They have controlled prac-
tically all Of the committee chairman
ships in congress; President Wilson is
a sectionalist, and so is the secretary
of the treasury, McAdoo. The comp
trOller of the treasury, John Shelton
Williams is also sectionalistic in his
views, and it is due to McAdoo and
Williams that so much favoritism has
been shown to the south by the feder-
al reserve board. There never has
been such pork regime in the history
of congress. and the smear of the rind
is found on all our important legisla-
ton since 1913. In the thirteen north,
ern and western states are to be found
our great manufacturing industries
which were so sorely wounded by the
democratic tariff law.

UNANIMOUSLY the republican conven-
ton at Madison endorsed the admins
tration of Governor Philip. No one
seriously doubts but that Gov. Phillip
will be renominated and reelected. 1t
matters not where you go there is a
strong sentiment for Philip. The tax
payer believes in him, trusts him, and
realizes that he is sound, brainy,
business man, capable of giving US a
business administration. The efforts
of the progressives to hamper Gov.
Philip in his effort to give better
state government will all go to bring
to his support the thinking voters and
taxpayers of the state. -Dodgeville

WE SHOULD not overlook the fact,
but we often do, that it is not the tax
payer who makes the most sacrifice
when war RACES, but the young men of
from eighteen to twenty-five, who
have not yet reaped any of the re-
wards of life and have the right to
look forward to many years of happi-
ness, comfort or success. 1t is of
these war demands the greatest sacri-
fees and, what is worse, the army and
navy pick and choose among the young.
The military service rejects the phys
The very best of our young manhood
for their country. AS we see the long
columns of uniformed youth, with guns
flashing, banners flying, drums beating,
marching to the train that takes them
to the battle front, do we ever think
that these youngsters, who have seen
as yet little of life and may have no
posterity of their own, are going forth
to work and perhaps to die for those
whose fabors are nearly finished and
for the children of others? Surely in
all the annals of humankind from cave
man to characterization there is no
figure to compare with the boy who
goes to fight his nations battles, who
gladly gives his ali for a principle or
an abstraction that others may reap
the benefit of his valor. He himself
may scarcely know the benefit of that
which he seeks to perpetrate. Born
earlier or later he might enjoy richly
the good things of earth; he is the vic
tim of circumstances he cannot control
or perhaps even understand. His al
truism is perfect.

Is CONGRESS going to adjourn with
out lifting a finger to save the country
from a disastrous railroad strike, asks
the Chicago Tribune. We recognize
the reluctance of politicians to handle
such a question in the midst of pres
idential campaign, but their reluctance
should be forced. Enough is known of
the strike vote now being taken to as
sure congress that by an overwhelming
majority of the votes cast in the unions
concerned the vote will place in the
hands of the leaders the power to de-
clare strike if their demands are not
conceded But certainly congress will
commit an unforgivable wrong to the
nation if it fails to exert its utmost
powers to bring about the peaceful adj
iustment of differences.

died at home here yesterday. He was

He represented Colorado in the
United States Senate from 1901 to
1907 and was for many years the
owner and editor in chief Of the
Rocky Mountain News and the Den

list party he was a national leader
in the movement and in later years
was equally well known as a Demo

sent to the Senate. His fortune, con
sisting largely of real estate holdings
in Denver, is estimated by associates
at several millions.

SPRAYING THE MINES

Charles Huber, deputy state inspec-

conditions in the deep mines of
Tonopah more comfortable and health
ful. II was suggested by him to a
Virginia City superintendent, who put
the idea into effect with excellent
results. 1t will probably be tried
out first on the 1900 level of the Hall
fax, the deepest and one of the hot
est workings in Tonopah.
The idea is to carry a water line
along with the air pipe and at the
point of discharge to have the water
flow across the air orifice, where ii
is transformed into spray. cooling the
air and allaying the dust in the face
of the opening.

BAD FEELING DUE

SUBJECTS OF ALLIED POWERS
MUST FIGHT FOR ENGLAND
OR GO HOME

by Associated Press.)
LONDON, July 25.-Wide difference
of opinion has arisen and the ground
prepared for controversy among the
political leaders by the government
decision that the subjects of its allies
n the war residing in England shall
either enlist in the British army OF
be deported.
Prticular objection to the decision
has been engendered insofar as IL
may effect Russian subjects here who
may be political refugees. large
element of the more liberal thinkers
In public life priding themselves in
the traditional asylum offered by Eng
land in this respect Herbert Samuel,
secretary of the Home Office, stated
in the House of Commons that the
plan to deport those failing to enlist
would not be enforced in the case of
Russian subjects, If tribunal de-
cided that they are political refugees.
The suggestion has been made that
instead of sending back to their own
country Russian Jews who have left
Russia for reasons known to every
body, though they are not exactly
political refugees, they should be sent
to America or deported to some other
neutral country of their choice.
The desire to avoid offending Rus
sian susceptibilities on the subject is
general, for which reason the ques-
ton is regarded as one of unusual
delicacy. One group holds that the
sending back of Russian Jews to
heir own country would crafty no
important Russian sentiment, and
might effect the reverse result. The
true inwardness of the situation, ac-
cording to the London correspondent
Of the Manchester Guardian, is that
Englishmen taken into the army I'M
