BRITISH BOAST Is SPOILED.

England no longer is the only ma
.tion that can boast the sun never
sets on its territorial possessions, for
the United States can also make a
similar assertion since it came into
possession of the Danish West In
dies. Some writers have advanced
this claim ever since this government
assumed control over the Philippines
but it was not strictly accurate. The
most westerly point of the Philippines
is the small island of Balabac, while
our most easterly possession is a lit
tie island known as Culebra, which
virtually is part of Porto Rico. Be-
tween these two points the distance
is a trife more than 180 degrees, or
more than half the circumference of
the earth, so that there actually was
an interval between the time the sun
set and arose on lands under the do
minion of this government.
With the acquisition of the Danish
islands, however, the small gap is
bridged and it now may be said in
truth that "the sun never sets on
Uncle Sans possessions. j." This may
be small thing to boast about, it
is true, but at least it robs England
of distinction that long has been
a source of great pride to the peo-
pie of that nation. And now that
the United States is fairly in the
same class, perhaps the British will
not be so prone to advance this old
claim.

sofa and consequently are not amen
able to control or regulation by the
Dakotans.
The league was organized about
two years ago by two farmers with
out previous political experience, and
as early as last February they had
recruited 10000 members and organ
lied three-fourths of the state. A
membership of 10000 in North Da-
kota is now claimed Last spring
and summer it stood the republican
and democratic parties on their
heads. Its fatal weakness is that,
like the populists and their prede-
cessors, it is a class party and that
these never last. But while they ex-
ist they play the mischief with old
parties. Populism in its day formed
consequential factor in the poll
ties of the interior. The Grangers
advocated governmental control Of
railways; and this has come. The
Farmers Alliance demanded sub
treasury warehouses for the storage
of agricultural products upon which
money should be loaned, and in 1916
congress regulated dealings in cotton
futures, provided for the Standard
zation of grain and established ma
tional system of warehouses. Popu
lists urged taxation of incomes and
popular election Of national senators;
and both of these policies have be-
come federal or state law.
Old-line parties will do well to re-
call these facts and to remember that
American farmers have mastered the
art Of political organization-Spokes-
man Review.

The Bridge Row.

Marion county has become fighting
mad because the Polk county court
refuses to consent to the building OF
steel bridge. One Salem paper now
wants Marion county to build the
bridge alone and another Salem pa
per is agitating the annexation of a
portion of Polk county to Marion
county. Either one Of these PROPOSE
tions ought to be acceptable to Polk
county. A "mass' meeting will be
held in West Salem tomorrow after
noon which may draw up the arti-
cles of secession. 1t was first sug-
gested that new county be formed,
which would take in Independence,
but when it was learned that Inde-
pendence, the only town of conse-
quence except Monmouth in the pro-
posed new county, would expect to
be the capital, the idea was put in
cold storage and secession advocat-
ed.
Independence stands by the Polk
county court in favor of concrete
bridge. 1t is not controlled by the
steel trust and is willing to hold out
until the end of time for a concrete
bridge. The Capital Journal holds up
the Independence bridge as horrible
example of concrete. The trouble Ov-
er the Independence bridge was not
caused because it was built of con-
crete, but because the county court
failed to bond the builders. When a
board was accidentally" dropped
into one of the pillars of the unfin-
ished structure which caused it to
crumble, it did not show the superb
ority of steel over concrete for if the
bridge had been steel instead of con-
crete, could not some one very much
in the cement industry,
have sawed a few steel rods?
independence is thinking of hav-
ng "mass" meeting. Not in the
interest of any particular kind of
bridge, but to insist that the Marion
county court "open up" about fifteen
niles of territory in Marion county
adjacent to Independence so that the
people living there can come to Inde-
1endence, their nearest trading point
Monitor.

WHERE YOUR DOLLAR GOES
FARTHEST.

Did you ever stop to think wher
You We're handling your dollar owe,
to the Portland or Salem merchant
to an itinerant book or periodical
agent, or to some peddler that you
were committing an objectionable
sin against your home town. No
doubt you realized that you were help
ing the big city merchant pay his
high rental cost for his prominent
location. but had You considered what
that dollar would have done at home
for you. When you handed that dol
lar to the city man, you said goodbye
TO it forever for by no known means
and in no shape or form could that
100 cents ever come back to you or
your community again.
True, the dollar was only small
amount, and the idea of shopping in
the city, or receiving a nicely wrap
ped package by express made some
sort of appeal to you that was hard
to resist-the agent represented his
ware in such glowing terms that you
fell for his smooth falkland you
lost sight of how much value that
dollar held for you. 1t should have
helped you build roads in your COM
munity lin its small way of course,
but lots of dollars would build lots
of miles) it should have helped you
pave your city streets, it should have
helped increase the value of your
farm by giving You better access to
your commercial center. it should
have helped in civic betterment, did
its part in educating your children,
paying your taxes, and scores of 9TH
er things. But did itf Not on your
life.
The value of dollar to a eommu-
nifty is the number of times it can
60 the rounds in that community.
You pay your butcher, he buys from
the grocer. The grocer gives it to
the farmers wife for her two dozen
eggs and a pound of butter, who in
turn buys several yards of calico.
The merchant passes it along to the
mill man for bunch of lumber. and
the mill mar Turns it over on Satur-
day night to his workman for wages
And so on it makes its rounds, CON-
ing back to you every once in a
while with just little increased val

Wedding Out The Culls.

The wedding out of unproductive
dairy cows by the dairymen of the
county is an act that is proving prof
table to every milk producer The
old theory that COW is cow wher-
ever found has lost its force, and
many are fast finding out from loss
of revenue from cream shipments that
while a COW is a COW she is not al
ways a wealth producer. Testing for
butter fat determines the quality of
the dairy COW, and the result has
been the Improvement of the dairy
herd from the largest to the smallest
number of cows.-Sheridan Sun.

bridge want concrete structure, and
that the county court cannot accept
the recommendation for the bridge
they suggest unless the court is in
structed by the taxpayers of this
county to do so. We cannot see why
they should urge this temporary af-
fair when the Polk court stands ready
this day to give them a permanent
structure of concrete, with tensile
strength of $50 pounds to the square
foot, or in other words so strong that
two trucks, each carrying 20 tons,
could pass with perfect safety on any
part of the structure. And such
bridge costing 100000 less money in
so years time than the steel one they
clamor for.
II will do well to remember that
no particular section is bearing the
expense. Falls City is helping to pay
for the bridge, so are Dallas, indie
pendence and Monmouth. The small
section of the people in the east end
of the county are the only ones who
will receive benefit from bridge and
they are attempting to coerce the
court into putting up type of bridge
adverse to instructions from the great
majority of the people of the coun-
5y. The court is acting in perfect
Iy good faith in its stand for con-
,rete-for that is the kind of bridge
Polk county people want.

OTHERS OPINIONS
North Dakota s Farmers Run Their
State.

Another political power has arisen
in the interior. Cousin to the Gran
gers. to the Farmers Alliance and to
the Popuhsts, it is the Farmers Nom
partizan Political league. This or
ganization advocates state ownership
of flour mills. grain elevators, in
surance against hail, rural credits
and packing houses.
North Dakota's farmers last No
vember gained every elective official
of the state government except one,
elected three justices of the supreme
court who stand by the policy of a
state owning public utilities, and al
so control the legislature, except that
there the conservatives outnumber
them by three, while IS per cent of
the members of the lower house have
committed themselves to the farmers
program.
The league originated from eco
nomic conditions. Primarily it was
a farmers protest against alleged
juggling of prices of cereals and spec
ulation on board of trade. Its OBJ
iect was to put the speculative mar
kets out of business through the state
and the farmers cooperating in the
distribution of products. North Da-
kota was considered to have been the
victim of alien 'interests" and these,
the farmers think, belong to Mime

WHEN THE DROUTH CAME.
News Item in Portland paper:

"When Portland citizens began to
realize last Friday morning that bone
dryness was Immediately impending
they began grand rush to the tele'
graph office and before noon a long
line had been formed in front OF the
company's main office. Officials found
it necessary to supply ten extra clerks

to announce that NJ. S. Shrock is to
be retained as county agricultural
agent for another year. Now let those
who said at the budget meeting that
Mr.. Shrock had not benefited them
during the past year put themselves
in a way to receive assistance from
his office and give him a fair trial.
