- mail matter of the second class.

As political matters are shaping
up now, Col. Roosevelt will either
be the nominee of the Republicans
for President or he will name the
man who Is nominated for this Of
fee. Not a single old-line Repub-
lican has yet been named In this
connection who is considered strong
enough to control their convention.
The Republicans are reduced to the
rather humiliating attitude OF hav-
ing to knuckle to a man who just
after their last national convention
they denounced as political crook
and renegade. Teddy is yet in the
saddle and his hat is in the ring.

Preaching from the text, John xiv,
Greater works than these shall We
do Rev. DR.. John T. Thomas, a
Louisville pastor, declared his belief
that Christ meant exactly what He
said, and that supporting orphan
ages, relieving the distressed and
doing other like kindnesses, was
greater than performing miracles.
The eminent divine is eminently
right. The whole Christian religion
is based upon love for humanity and
the bringing of peace and rest to
mind and body. The exegesis of the
love of God is love of your fellow
man. of whatever station. The re-
lief of physical needs is as much an
expression of that love as it is in
bringing peace to the soul by relig-
iOus preachments.

= One of the most encouraging evil
dences of a new nationalism, dis
playing a fine spirit of encourage
ment for native labor, is the an
nouncement that one of the big mo-
tor companies will in the future en-
ploy only American citizens as Ia
borers. Nearly all the strikes and
labor troubles of recent years nave
occurred where foreigners were en-
ployed. Besides this, the foreign Ia
borer will work for less money than
the American toiler. thus putting the
latter to a distressing disadvantage.

ly opposed to immigration but is
rather an complication of the idea

Mr.. Jacob II. Schiff, the noted
New York financial authority, is
quoted as saying, when discussing
tariff revision: 81 want to say that
my heart is with the Republicans,
but my common sense is with the
Democrats. Merging into the sub
ject of national success nowadays,
he said: why, nothing can stop
this great prosperity except tariff
agitation" And he was speaking to
a crowd of his political compatriots
all Republicans. But Mr.. Schiff
knew the men whom he was speak
ing to andythat they would not heed
his advice. With Republican leaders
the tariff is not a matter of common
sense. They regard it more as a po-
litical football.

WARNED
 AGAINST TRADE WAR
Flemish Leader Declares World Can- not Afford to Isolate Germany
 Which Will Produce Much.

The Hague, Netherlands, Oct. 23.- An earnest warning in regard to the proposed economic war against the Central Powers is published here from the Belgian side, where such a struggle would necessarily have far reaching consequence that tend to be overlooked. It comes from Trans van Cauwelaert, the Flemish leader and member of the Belgian Chamber who writes:
 The German people will assuredly not have unlearned it's spirit of robust industry through this war. Want has heightened it's amazing working force; the lack of some accessories, which it was accustomed to draw unhin- dered from abroad, has taught it 70 manufacture out of it's natural re- sources Or to replace by related prod ucts. What has been prepared in the giant labratory of this technical war will probably only become apparent after years have passed. But it would be a dangerous self -delusion to contemplate holding in constraint by artificial means the power of exter- sion of national forces that are better organized and of greater creative readiness. External barriers will not hold against inward superiority. Economic exclusion of another all too quickly degenerates into economic iso- latiOn of oneself. No one desires that tho Germans should again come and dcvOur the best in the land but we must seek our salvation where 1t is to be found, and not founder from ono mOras5 into another"

A STRONG CANDIDATE.

Arthur Auton, who is candidate
for reelection to the Office of County
Clerk, is the most popular man on the
ticket. During the time he served as
clerk he had won the respect OF the
members of the County Board and all
with whom he has had dealings. He
has proven himself to be most com
petent official and has been prompt,
accurate and courteous. No county
clerk has ever kept his records in a
more perfect manner and he has Of
ten been complimented on the neat
ness in which the same are kept. Mr..
Nuton has friends in every part OF the
county who are anxious that he
should be retained and who will give
him their support He is well known
and well-liked in Two Rivers and the
northern part of the county and those
who helped to elect him before are
still for him.-Two Rivers Chronicle.

OBITUARY..

Capt. Berlin Snitlin died last Satua-
day morning after an illness of about
year.
Capt. Snitin was born in Morrison,
Brown County, in 1856 and moved here
with his praents in 1860. At a very
early age he took TO the lakes attend
ing school winters. While still boy
he had worked his way to mate on
large schooners. lie took to steam
craft as master of the large towing tug
George Pankratz and later command
ed tug OF the Bartley fleet at Escan-
aba. From there he went into the
|. O. T. fleet then large iron ore car
riers and commanded the steamer
Minnesota for years. He came from
there into the Goodrich service and
was m aster of several of the best boats
of the lleet At his own request he
was some years ago transferred TO the
local Goodrich tug and stuck to his
pilot house during months of sickness.
lie was forced to give up in May and
has been failing since.
When % years of age Captain Sntliin
was made mate with Capt. Tim Kelley
in the schooner Thos. Rowland and for
time later was mate with him again
in the /. o. T. liner Manchester.
Captain Snif1in was a typical mariner
of the Old school. He was master
craftsman in all the details of his occu-
patton 10 which he had long, honor
able and successful career He was a
reader and thinker and drew with
precision from mind stored with in
formation and expressed his ideas
bluntly and forcibly as became sea
captain. Withal he had heart that
shone through and won the regard of
all who crossed his path, He is one of
the last of the masters who won their
spurs in the hey-day OF the grand old
sailing ships.
He is survived by his widow and one
daughter Carrie, two brothers, Royal
and Byron and one sister, Mrs. j, c.
Woods all of this city.
The funeral was held yesterday from
the home. Interment was in Ever
green cemetery.

BOARD OF REVIEW IN SESSION.

The Board Of Equalization met in
adjourned session Monday and will con-
tjnue for ten days. The adjournment
from July 3rd was neccssltated because
the assessment roll was not completed
then. Assessor GoetZler assisted by
Mr., +, a. Croker Of the state Tax
Commission has been making a COM
pIete new assessment Of the city, the
first probably in generation. The
assessment roll laid before the board
Monday shows an increased valuation
Of the property in the city Of approXi-
mately S., 100000 over 1913. Personal
property alone was boosted from -, Gj6,
500 to S3,d15,OSl This includes an in
crease Of Manufacturers stock from
s, ,506, ,SG5 to S2,2SO,7lO. The differ
ence in the thorUughness Of the assess
ment this year and heretofore is illus
tra,ed by the fact that in 1915 not one
pig was found in the city. The assess
ors last year must have had defective
olfactory sense. Neighbors knew that
pigs existed and As they scented the
sumner zaphyrs the murmured Ellis
Parker Buffers immortal "Pigs is
Pigs Messrs Crocker and Goetzler
evidently agreed with this They dis
covered ljI pigs worth Sl0S5. Motor
cars increased from 256 worth $4,000
to 5i7 worth $4,000
The general rule followed in resi-.
dence sections seems TO have been to
not distrub the land assessment much
but to Jump the Improvement figures
way up to about actual values. Resi-
dences were VIGOROUSLY undervalued.
IT the raises are quite general the
increased valuations will not alter very
much the actual taxes to paid Those
who are increased less than the aver
age increase will pay less taxes II the
city budget remains about the same.
Mr.. Crocker will remain here during
the sitting Of the board. He has taken
Iup the big increases with corporations
interested and satisfied them in ad-
vance 50 that proceedings before the
| board will not be as numerous as were
expected

on had Information that this was their
