SAINT Kirkpatrick will be candidate
for congress on the democratic ticket
before the June primary. Mr.. kirk
patrick was a member in Congress four
years ago. but lost out at the primary
two years ago. He is now coming oack'
and is going after the persfnnon. Per
sonally, we don't think ttaWtl do MIN
any good. cause our Representative
Ramseyer has cinch on that seat Ior
the next two years. SAINT Kirkpatrick
is an OLD soldier, brave asa lion. out
he has grown a little old and can not
make as vigorous campaign as ne
might have done, say ten years ago.
Then again, the democratic boys over

didn't get to be postmaster, have their
KNIVES whetted and ground and sharp

| MENGTdCN PLANTS In MID WEST.
Huntington Gazette
The establishment Of midwest mu-
| milton plants for the greater security
! of the country is left to the judgment
! Of army Officers as to the character
and the site by the house. military bill.
1t is hoped that the army officers to
whom this important matter is en-
trusted will see the grave necessity OF
locating n1unition plants In localities
| that are far enough removed from the
sea to make them absolutely safe In
case Of war. The big arsenal at Rock
Island should be one Of the main ar
serals in the country. There LIZ no
season why the government should not
Immediately make provisions for main
tanning this plant up to its fullest
capacity and there is every indication
under the present democratic admin
istration that such will be done. The
foolishness Of maintaining munftion
plants upon either coast, where they
could be readily blown to bits by an
invading force, is apparent to every
one who has no private interest IN
such plants. In case of war, private
I munftion plants could be taken over
by the government There would be
no delay about this proceeding ana II
necessary a little frrnness cotiid be
