made at the same time that what
President Wilson meant By 4 change

PRAISE WILSON IN HUNGARY
Two Papers Laud Note to Pope,
Amazing Berlin Organ.

Amsterdam, Sept. G.-Two Hun
garjan newspapers, the Az Est and
the Magyar OriZag, fully agree with
the. views expressed in President
Wilson's reply to Pope Benedict's
reace proposals, to the great dis
gust Of the VosSische Zeitung, Of
Berlin, which asserts they take a
view which is almost Incompetent
siblc. The Az Est says:
"Prcsident Wilson's reply is 50
clear that every true friend of peace.
every patriot, can indorse it. Amer
lea adhere in this note, without re-
serve. to the policy of peace without
annexations, which is most impor-
tant for Hungary"
The Magyar Orizag, which is the
organ of the independence party,
says:
"All real pacilists must be CRATE
full to Mr.. Wilson. lie who, from the
standpoint Of peace, condemns Mr..
Wilson's note has sold his soul to
the war devil, and does not wish
peace. From the Hungarian view

Lumbermen Feel Effect.
Lurnbermen have felt, IL IS said, the
effect Of the replacement Of their pro-
duct by other materials, but have not
realized the extent to which, it had
taken place. They have failed TO adopt
aggressive selling methods and have
been unable to supply the consumer
with reliable information regarding
lumber, because they did not have it.
a complicated system Of grades is in use
which is not ineligible to the average
consumer and is even the subject Of
considerable dispute among lumbermen.
Manufacturers Of other building mater
ial have spent large sums Of money to
obtain reliable information about their
products. They have had to advertise
extensively to make a place in the sun"
for themselves. Substitutes for lumber
are guaranteed to meet specifications
which are easily understood by the con-
sumer. These facts, the report states,
have combined to make the substitutes
increasingly popular.
Must Learn How to Profit.
For lumbermen to hold their markets
against competing materials, it will be
necessary for them to learn more about
the fundamental properties Of wood, the
author of the report says. They can do
this either by scientific research for
themselves or by cooperating with
agencies already established. Better
manufacturing and selling methods, and
the development of by-products should
enable them to make profit in spite of
the limitations on the prices of lumber
which may be imposed by competing
substitutes.
Even with the increasing substitution
for wood, the report points out, there
will be need for all the wood in the
United States, and more. The total
consumption Of the country for many
years has been far in excess Of the
growth. Already in many regions
timber shortage and high prices have
followed the exhaustion Of the local
supply. From the public standpoint there
is real need for growing forests vastly
larger than are now planned for.

this year and they can't keep him in
one place long enough to tell him their
story
Governor Burnquist has replied by
letter to some Of those who criticised
him for taking part in the fight over
the selection of national committee
man: In substance, he says that he
was as much interested as any other
Minnesota Republican in the selection
of the states representative on the
national committee, and that he had
as much right to express his opinion
in regard to the matter as had the
clerk Of the supreme court, who was
no more member of the state com
mittee, which made the selection, than
himself.
HE adds that inasmuch as Ramsey
county had a United States senator,
governor and lieutenant governor, he
thought Hennepin county entitled to
this honor"
Republicans and Democrats alike
are preparing for heated, fast con-
gressional race in the Fourth district
next year. In the event of Senator
Nelson's retirement, it is expected
that Representative Clarence Miller
of Duluth will be candidate for the
Senate. State Senator O. H. Griggs
of Virginia is expected to go after
the Republican nomination, and SEN
ator Richard Jones of Duluth prob
ably will be the Democratic candidate.
Senator Jones has been down in Ohio
working for the Prohibition cause,
and will be able to make lively cam
paign. If the final contest is between
these two, it may develop into fight
between the Iron Range and Duluth,
as far as St. Louis county is concerned.
If that old quarre! is revived there will
