OFFERS GOVERNMENT SITE FOR
$11,00o,ooo ESTABLISHMENT.
Declares Location Is Remote From
Both Coasts and Power Is
Very Cheap.

Washington, Sept. 14.-That Duluth

armor plant authorized by Congress
is the claim presented in a brief filed
with Secretary of Navy Daniels by
the Duluth Chamber of Commerce.

remote from either coast than any
other at which the manufacture of
heavy products is feasible.
Raw Materials at Low Cost.
Duluth steel products can be laid
down at tide water as cheaply and ex'
pedttiously as from any other point
at which they can be economically
manufactured.
Raw materials can be assembled
at Duluth at lower cost than at any
competing point.
Duluth can furnish hydro-electric
and steam power at very low unit
cost.
Duluth is already a center of the
iron and steel industry.
Duluth can furnish an ample site
with rail facilities and frontage on
navigable water at reasonable cost. y

Minneapolis Daily News: Roosevelt
carried six states in 1912 and Minneso-
ia was one of them. Consequently this
state has a special interest in what
the colonel has to say. In Maine last
Friday night he made a speech design
ed to advance the candidacy of Charles
E. Hughes, republican nominee for the
presidency. He fayed Wilson for not
going to war with Germany and he
cons ructively called German-Ameri-
cans traitors to their adopted country.
Following this speech Mr.. Hughes ex-
pressed his commentator to the colo
mel for his vigorous effort. Hughes
wired his congratulations and thanks
for "your effective support: - We are
wondering whether any similar con-
gratulatory messages are going to the
colonel from his old friends at New
Ulm, St. Cloud, Morris, Mankato and
various other places in Minnesota
where the hyphen means hands gripped
in friendship, rather than opposed as
clenched fists.

AMERICAN GENERALS OPINION
As TO METHODS OF ESTAR.
LISTING PEACE SOUGHT
BY COMMISSION.
INTERNATIONAL POLICE
QUESTION is DISCUSSED
Taxation DEGREES Issued by Carranza
Which Affect American-ControlIed
Mining Properties in Mexico Con-
sidered-System of Border
Patrol and Soldiers Needed.

New London, Conn.,, Sept. 14,-Sug-
gestions as to what methods shall be
employed to establish peace on the
Mexican border were submitted to Ma
jor General Tasker H. Bliss U. s. A.,
by the American members of the Am.
er1can-Mexican joint commission. The
officers opinions were sought on SUBJ
5ects ranging from the withdrawal of
American troops from Mexico to the
possibility of creating an International
police to guard the border. No con-
clus1on, however, was reached and
the commissioners will continue their
conferences with General Bliss.
Discuss Taxation DEGREES.
The joint commission dealt wholly
with questions raised by taxation de-
crees issued by General Carranza
which affect American-contro min.
ing properties in Mexico, the Mexican
commissioners insisting that they
were designed to promote the mining
industry, not to drive out American
capital and confscate it's holdings.
In their conference with General
Bliss, American commissioners took
under consideration the ACCESSIBILITY Of
proposing such a system of border pa
troll that a part of the Mexican troofs
now engaged in this duty would be
released for the pursuit of bandits at
a distance from the line. They con-
sidered also the attitude of Americans
living along the border, and obtained
from General Bliss estimates as to the
number Of soldiers necessary to put
into effect any of the plans suggested.

NOT a BAD REASON AT ALL

NOT a BAD REASON AT ALL .5sss
Duluth Herald: Ella Flagg Young,
distinguished educator, is out for
Wilson for re.election-she lives in
Illinois and has vote on the presi-
dency this year-and one Of her rea.
Fsons is that Hughes as governor Of
New York vetoed a bill providing that
women teachers should be paid as
much as men teachers.
There are many reasons for prefer
ring Wilson to Hughes-was there ever
an election with so many good rea-
sons on one side and so few ON on the
other ?-and this is new one. Though
it may not influence many, it is a good
and valid reason, nevertheless.
That was most unintelligent veto.
So was Hughes veto of the eight7hour
bill for street car men. So was his
veto of the two-cent passenger fare
law-wherein he took the attitude
that the people should prove that a
two-cent fare was right instead of that
the railroads should prove that it was
not right. So was his opposition to
the income tax amendment. The
Hughes of today is easier to under
stand in the light Of these items from
his record as governor.
But the veto of the teachers pay
bill was peculiarly bigoted. Pay of
teachers should he graded according
to their deserts. To grade it according
to sex, giving men more simply because
they ARE men, and women less just
because they ARE women, is simply
STUPID.

TO ARMAGEDDON AND BACK

We marched forth to ArmageddOn
When our leader gave the word,
Singing "Onward, Christian Soldiers
AS we battled for the Lord.
But the Lord-He seemed to fail us
And the tide Of battle rose
In a wave that overwhelmed us
With the triumph of our foes.
Still we shouted to our leader,
"We will follow you again,
"Lead once more at Armageddon,
"We'l acquit ourselves like men!''
But the answer that he gave US
Was an order to retreat:
backward, backward, Christian sol
GIVE no stomach for defeat.''
Backward then from Armagcddon,
Where we battled for the Lord,
Backward to the ranks of Satan,
Our Commander gave the word;
For the Arch-fend, from mountain,
Had shown Teddy all the land,
Said to him, Chow down before me,
"And all this you shall command"
Then our one time dauntless lie der
PROSTATE fell at Satan's feet,
Saying, "For the Lord I've battled,
''In this cause I've met defeat,
IT will leave his bootless service,
'Join the ranks Of sin and self,
"Trusting in your promise, Satan,
'That you'll give me power and
pelf.'' -Mankato Review.

ADVERTISE

IT asked eight dollars and half
for one polled Angus calf, which
price was not too high; I hoofed it
west, I hoofed it east, endeavoring to
sell the beast, but no one wished to
buy. Day after day toiled along,
bored men with the same old song, Il
have calf for sale; I asked eight
bones and fifty cents for unequalled
critter, gents-who will dig up the
kale?' Then said a farmer, 20 rest
your feet, and quit your wearing out
the street and bowling by the year;
spend fifty cents and advertise your
sawed off cow of pocket size, and buy
ers will appear I followed up this
same advice, and put my jaded feet
on ice; and when the ad appeared, ten
customers came to my gate; one
bought the calf and paid the freight,
the others bucked and reared. And
thus by printing little ads, the wise
man gathers in the seeds, and rests his
aching corns, a little ad will make
more noise than fifty-seven little boys
all footing on their horns. '-Walt
Mason.

tax RATES OF CITIES.

Brainerd on Tuesday voted down an
increase in the city tax rate Of 51a
mills, which would have made their
rate 16 mills, and as a consequence
the city will be greatly handicapped
in meeting it's running expenses as
well as be stopped from making
further Improvements, and it is stated
that the city lighting will be turned
off until arrearages are paid to the
water and light department. The pro
position was defeated by vote Of 6S4
to 1925. During the discussion on the
matter the Brainerd Dispatch compiled
table showing the tax rate in twenty.
six cities, including Brainerd. 1t will
be noted in the table that only Brain

lower than Little Falls and that our

pared with the other cities enumerat-
ed in the table. The table shows rates

Springfield Republican: Government
ownership of railroads has been
brought about in the Philippine is
lands through the taking over of the
Manila railroad by the Philippine gov
eminent for the sum of 100000. The
railroad is $50 miles in length and has
not been profitable evidently to the
private owners. Under the United
States flag there are now three rail-
roads owned by the governmcnt-ln
the Philippines, in the Panama canal
zone and in Alaska. Future railroad
construction in the Philippines must
apparently be a state business.
