cratic congressman Herald.
Thinks We Tried to Start Something
Seems We Did.

The Monitors mention of the fact that
Congressman Dale had been selected to
make campaign speeches in President
Wilson's home state leads the Barre
Times to remark that Congressman Dale
ought to make some speeches in his own
second Vermont district in order that
people might get acquainted with him
here, intimating that he is not well
known in Vermont.
Coming from Barre. the home of
would be representatives of this district,
this criticism appears like a bid for some
excuse for starting something against
Mr.. Dale. The Rutland Herald answers
the Barre contemporary in commenting
upon the matter, in the following :
The fact is. Mr.. Dale is fairly well ac-
auainted with the rank and file of the
people of his district but has not, per
haps. made himself quite conspicuous
enough among the politicians of the dis
trict 1t was quite generally agreed
after the campaign two years ago that
he won because of his acquaintance with
the rank and file. while his opponents
lost because they were taking their lead

The Burlington News tells about some
Barre granite work being set in Burling-
ton by the Woodbury. Granite Co. This
must be case of mistaken identity
either of the granite or of the company
doing the work, because it would be an
odd situation for the Hardwick and Beth
ell concern to be using the Barre product.
However, we admit that such a thing
might happen.

The Leavenworth echo. [volume] (Leavenworth, Wash.) 1904-current, 1916-09-29

Mr.. Cookery is spending this week
in Chelan, Okanogan and Douglas
counties, meeting as many Of the voters
as possible and occasionally making a
speech. He put in nearly all of Mon
day here and made number OF ac-
quaintances and says he found the re-
publicans generally lined up and fully
determined to support the ticket NOM
mated Sept. IL. He was accompanied
by Mr.. c. c Hart, who was himself a
candidate for the nomination and re-
ceived very dattering vote, consider
ing the brief campaign he made. One
OF the noteworthy incidents connected
with Mr.. Corkery's campaign is the
fact that all seven OF his recent oppon-
ents for the nomination recently met
in Spokane and with the best OF feeling
prevailing pledged Mr.. Cookery their
support in the November election.
While Mr.. Hart will accompany him
on his tour thru this and Okanogan
counties it is very probable that others
Of those who opposed him in the pri-
mary will be with him in his speaking
tour throughout the balance OF the
district. @~
Mr.. Cookery was introduced in few
brief remarks by Terminal Agent Wood
row. The meeting was held on Front
street at the corner Of Eighth street.
He said he favored the eight hour day
as matter of principle, and also favor
ed the dry law and believed in
strengthening it. On national matters
he stood for the principles of the re-
publican party as pronounced in the
platform, and especially would he favor
the adequate protection OF Washington
industries. In a few words he grace
fully acknowledged the loyal support
pledged by his opponents in the recent
primary for the nomination. While in
the Legislature he favored the widows
pension and the Washington child
labor law.
He left Tuesday morning for We
natchee where he had an engagement
to speak in the evening.

POLITICAL SMALL TALK

When Hughes takes Office he will
know the country from actual contact;
and the country will know him. No
clustered theories will shape his policies.
Conditions after the war form con-
siderable Of Mr.. Hughes topic as he
journeys about the country. He pre-
sents the picture-and he embodies
the remedy.
A shortage Of prunes is reported from
the Northwest. The reason is, we
assume, that all the democratic politi-
ticians in that neck Of the woods are
full Of them.
In 1910 there were no democratic
senators from the New England states.
Since then there have been three
Maine contributing two OF them and
New Hampshire the other. Main still
has tone-but he will 60 out next
March; and the New Hampshire in
cumbent will 60 out two years later.
In figuring the percentage of pro-
gressives who returned to the republi-
san party in Maine the tabulating
machine goes all TO pieces. There
were about $4,000 moose LETT in Maine
two years ago-and this year the repub-
lican vote is increased by more than
twenty thousand. The moose evidently
returned with good interest.

Select Your Seed Potatoes Now

The time to select seed potatoes is
now, according to c. B. Sprague, assis-
tant in horticulture at the Washington
experiment station at Pullman. Go
into your potato field before the vines
are dead and select the most vigorous,
healthy and productive looking vines.
Place stake by the selected hill to
mark it for future location. The stakes
should be tall enough to be readily
seen from a distance. Mark a great
many more hills than you think will be
needed for when the crop is dug many
of the selected hills may not come up
to the desired standard.
Hills that show an extra yield and
exceptional smoothness as dug may be
saved although not previously marked
by a stake. The standard for the
selected hill or rather the warticular
qualities sought after are, greater uni
formity in size and shape and maxi
mum number of merchantable tubers.
A hill containing four, six, eight or
more good, smooth, even sized potatoes
having a plump and strong appearance
should be kept. All hills consisting
OF one large and several irregular and
knobby potatoes should be discarded
from the seed selection. 1t is tn pro-
duct OF the whole hill taken as a unit,
and measuring up to the desired stand
ard that must be had to keep up the
yields OF the potato crop and to keep
the seed from running out. In large
commercial paintings where many acres
OF ground are planted every year, the
seed selection becomes a big problem
and to 60 over the whole planting
would involve a great deal Of unneces-
sary expense. Choose enough selected
hills from this years crop to plant the
whole general acreage for another year.
The seed field should be located on
the best ground and taken as good or
better care of than the general crop.
The size of seed field and number Of
hills to be selected will need 10 be de-
termined by the general acreage to be
planted the following year and also the
yield for the particular section. 1t will
always be found economical to plan on
raising more seed than really is needed
so as to guard against having to finish
the general acreage planting with the
culls from the marketable lot, Keep
selected seed separate. Use some
system OF labelling or record by which
it is readily known. 1t is not we'll to
trust to memory alone to determine the
separate lots at the planting time.

had stood beside him when, as young
lawyer, he began the battle Of life. She
had walked by his side through the
sunshine of success and through the
shadow Of failure. Her death made
real rupture in the Presidents life. Yet
we do not recall that the republican
campaign managers or the republican
party press agents made any attempt
to capitalize President Harrison's grief
for the benefit of his canvass for re-
election.
Just as predicted, President Wilson
is finding that his nom partisan plea is
a two edged sword that cuts both ways.
Editor George Harvey, Of the North
American Review, the original Wilson
man, says that Wilson has absolved
him from the obligation OF party loyalty
and in two ways: first, by his ap-
peal for reelection as a non-partisan,
and, second, by his abandonment OF
democratic doctrine. And Harvey puts
the logic of the situation in a way that
will appeal to thousands Of men who
have been affiliated with the democratic
party all their lives-just as Harvey
has been.
Champ Clark and Woodrow Wilson
are different types Of men. The Clark
type was fairly we'll expressed in his
campaign slogan four years ago: You
gotta quit kickin' my dog aroun. "
The Wilson type was described by the
phrase in the Philadelphia speech Too
proud to fight" In the three years
and half OF his administration, Presi
dent Wilson has permitted everybody
to enjoy the sport OF kicking his dog
around. If Champ Clark had ruled in
the Baltimore convention, the United
States would not today occupy the
humiliating position she does in the
eyes OF the world.
The New York World remarks that
the democratic campaign managers are
going on with their work just as if the
Maine election hadn't taken place.
No; not Just the same. They have
revised their plans in good many par
ticulars. For instance, they are not
going to talk so much about the So
called "eight-hour-a-day" law, nor are
they going to send out so many South
ern orators to fire the Northern heart,
nor are they going to keep Mr.. Wilson
in the dim seclusion Of Shadow lawn,
they are going to send him out making
speeches for himself. In fact, they
are going to do a lot Of things they
never dreamed of when they thought
they could re-elect Senator Johnson
and Congressman Nc Gillicuddy.
