rHE PAssINe OF sIR WILFRED.

Canadians in Fargo. and there are
many Of them, will read with deep
interest and much regret, the news
of the passing Of Sir Wilfred Laurier
from the arena of Canadian politics.
Sir Wilfred has been a dominating
figure in Canada for a quarter of a
century. He led the Liberal party
to victory in 1896 and was re-
elected in 1900, 1905 and 1908, hold
ing the position Of premier for fifteen
years. The issue of reciprocity
brought about his defeat. and since
then he has served as leader of the
opposition.
During the last year his influence
has been undermined. by his stand
against CONSUMPTION. The English
speaking members of his party fav-
ored the governments policy, while
the French Liberals in Quebec, who
were always the mainstay of Sir
Wilfred's power, opposed the con-
scription act.
His career in Canadian politics
has been long and most creditable
one, and his admirers will regret
deeply the cause of his withdrawal.
The one big mistake of his career
came at fits close and when. history
deals with him 1t is to be hoped that
this mistake will be forgotten in the
record Of his accomplishments.

Mr.. ROOSEVELT AT HIS WORST.

When Mr.. Roosevelt is preaching
Americanism The Forum has moth
ing but the heartiest respect and
admiration for him. He has done
valiant service for hls country.
But when he allows himself to
lapse into criticism of the govern
ment's unpreparedness as he is doing
In the series Of editorial articles he
IS writing for The Kansas City Star
and other papers, he is less admir-
able. The articles show spleen
that should be beneath as big a man
as Mr.. Roosevelt.
Certainly the country entered the
war unprepared. 1t is the one big
fact that millions of Americans cling

that she had none Of her own, is

NJ WORD FROM WASHINGTON A5
 T0 TAKING OVER 1T PROJECT
Report Comes That Legal Question Has Been Put Up to Attorney General of the United States

Fears that there may be some hitch in the taking over of the reclamation project are being freely expressed by some of the head officials connected with the service, partly due to the fact that no direct word has been received from Washington bearing upon the sit uation there and because of rumors which have sifted through. One of the most persistent of these reports is that legal objection has been found to the plan, as outlined by the secretary of the interior, and that the whole matter is now before the United States attor- ney general for report.
 It was and is still hoped that the transfer may take place at the opening of the irrigation year-neXt Monday If that can be done all complications of moment will be avoided but if the transfer IS not made at that time all sorts of complications may come up, say some of the reclamation officials. For instance take the case ofs water rates. If collected by the government they are turned into the government general fund and then appropriations are made at Washington for the funds from which to operate the system. once collected there is no provision of the reclamation law under which the money would be returned to the Water Users association. For this reason some say that if the transfer cannot be made by October 1 it will have to be delayed for another year.
 Project Manager Cones resignation gees into effect on October and it is expected that he will leave at that time as he has made arrangements to go into private engineering practice in Los An geles with a big firm there shortly after that date. He has, however offered part of his time to the service if need ed and it is probable that Walter Ward will return to take up this work with Mir Cone devoting alternate weeks to the work here and in Los Angeles.
 Of course things about the project Will run along and run suoothly whether the transfer is made Monday or not The board of governors meets that day and matters will be diScuSSeN

By Right of Possession" proved an other sparkling action picture of the type that Moreno finds much to his liking and in which he is permitted to do stunts that have made him one of the best liked of the young male screen stars.
 It is a strong story of man, maid and a mine. The girl owns the mine the man is the young and handsome sheriff and the mine is in the hands of strikers when the girl arrives to look over her property. The miss is a business girl and puts her house in order in jig time and is duly nominated in Arizona for-sheriff and elected to defeat the man she is learning to love. He, in fun, puts up job on her. but she is as game as a thoroughbred and arrests the bad man and wins the ex-sheriff for a husband.
