The terrible riot in Youngstown,
Ohio, Friday night, in which about
100000 worth of property was de-
stroyed, dynamite stolen and used in
wrecking houses, a saloon raided and
large quantities of liquor stolen and
drunk by the rioters, is a terrible in
dictment of strikes and strikers. The
placing of bombs in the state house
in Boston and threats to blow up 9TH
er public buildings in that city is an
other frightful revelation of the ven
omous and destructive spirit existent
among American citizens, or at least
residents. We would suggest that
more stringent laws are necessary to
protect the public from such out
RACES and believe that the placing of
or explosion of a bomb or the use of
dynamite for the destruction of prop
erty should be made a capital offence.
A man resorting to such methods is
certainly a murderer at heart, a men
ace to human life and for the safety
of society should be legally executed.

Samuel S. Mccall was inaugurated

strongly advocated a redemption of
the party pledges. This looks well for
Massachusetts,. The country needs

Paper Contributed by Rear Admiral

In an article entitled What Shall

the May number OF the Review of Re

appeal fer ''universaImilitary training

out as follows:
"OE'the first of July Of each year he
would send every American boy, eight
cen years old. either TO a camp or on
board a battleship ami keep him for
one year under military or naval dis
cipline to be taught cleanliness, care
of his person. implicit prompt obed-
fence. self-respect, respect for his Sc
niors, good habits, sturdy truthfulness

From this training none physically

pOr, high and low. all should pass
through this grand school. AS against
the possible cry of NV boy cannot he
spared it is urged that every citizen
owes something to his country, that all
service implies sacrifice. and that, in
this instance. the sacrifice is small,
while the gain is immense.
Naturally as the government would
be giving something of incalculabl
value. there could be no compensation.

the year all would return to their diff

ficiency enhanced beyond calculation.
This is no theory but a demonstrate
ed fact. In addition, they would carry
away and disseminate an ideal of clti-
zenship, and civic duty now sadly lack
ing. One year is the minimum time re
quired fer military training ami the
maximum time the youth of the land
can well be taken from vocational and
educational life"

Sensible Pine County Farmers.

At meeting held in Hinckley a
short time ago at which farmers from
all sections Of Pine county were pres
ent, it was unanimously resolved as
the sense of the meeting, that the
county commissioners should go the
full limit in meeting the Federal aid
for that part Of interstate road No.
that passes north and south through
the extreme western end Of that coun-
ty. One farmer from the eastern end
Of the county, 20 miles remote from
the road, put it this way: "The road
will not benefit me. I am too far
away from it. But I realize that this
main thoroughfare must be put in
shape some time and the sooner the
better, for until this road is put in
good condition we cannot expect much
assistance on the side roads leading
to it," That is exactly what we have
been telling the people on the side
roads in Mile Laos county.

There is the proposed new bridge
across the West Branch on the site of
the old Sadley mill. It ought to have
been built long ago., and the ,only
reason that it has not been built was
the lack Of funds. If the bond PROPOSE
ton carries next Tuesday the county
will be in position to contribute lib
orally towards the erection of that
bridge. # the bond proposition fails
most of the cost Of replacing that
bridge will fall on Princeton town.
The bridge is needed and win accom-
modate a great number Of people, and
it ought to be built and as soon as
possible. Commissioner Cater informs
US that he will do everything in his
power to promote the building of that
bridge.

Sized It Tn Right.

A farmer living on the Silver Lake
road said to the writer Monday:
"Along our road we. are all for the
bond proposition, for we know we will
get little state and county aid on our
road until the main roads are fixed up.
Commissioner Cater has treated us
nicely, has helped US out whole lot,
and we feel reasonably sure that he
or his successor in office will help us
some more when the main roads are
attended to-" We informed the farm
err in question that he had sized up the
situation correctly, and that was just
exactly what the Union had said-that
as soon as the main roads were placed
in good condition the lateral roads
would receive attention.

With the judicious expenditure of
a comparatively small sum of money
the road leading south from Book
through the towns Of Borgholm, Bogus

one Of the best in the county. County
Commissioner Eckdall informs US that
if there are available funds next year
and there will be if the bond propos-
ition carries-he will guarantee that
that road will be put in good condition
as far as his commissioner district ex-
tends. Then there is no doubt but
what that part Of the road running
through Princeton town to the Holthus
corner will be put in good condition.
