The DEVELOPMENT of Highwavs

The highway, as supplement to
the railway, promises to be developed
during this war to such an extent that
it will continue as a permanent ad-
junct to the railway system, simpli-
flying it's work at terminals, feeding it
at local receiving points, and adding
measurably to it's carrying capacity
and it's certainty of prompt delivery.

Senator Nelson.

The gratifying report comes from
Washington that Senator Nelson is not
quite as insistent that he can not be
candidate for reelection as he was a
few weeks ago.
Everybody knows that Senator Mel
son has nothing to gain in the way of
additional honors by consenting to
stay in the senate. All that his state
and nation can give him in the way of
political preference they have gladly
bestowed.s In return he has given
long life Of faithful and distinguished
service, and, from that viewpoint, he is
entitled to rest and to spend the re-
naming years Of his useful life in the
quiet and comfort of his modest home
"a thing which he very much desires.
Under ordinary circumstances no
one would be sufficiently unapprecia-
tive of what he has done to deny his
reasonable wish. But the circum-
stances are not ordinary; they are very
extraordinary. They call for extra
ordinary consideration.
When Knute Nelson was a bow only
10 years of age, he was themainstay
Of widowed mother, with whom he
had come to this country IL years be-
fore. Under the present rules of ex-
emption provided by the CONSUMPTION
law he would not have been regarded
as under obligations to go to war, but
when the war for the Union began he
thought it his duty to become a union
soldier-a volunteer.
Much as it appreciates the noble
sacrifice he offered then and the splen-
did service he has rendered since, Sen
ator Nelson's adopted country needs
him more now than it did in 81, by as
much as he is able now to carry
larger and more important part. Min
nesota is not lacking in good material
out of which to make senator's, but
Knute Nelson, after nearly a quarter
of century in the senate of the
United States, is second in Importance
and influence to no man in that body.
He is an asset of his country at the
present time which it needs to make
the most Of.
How genuine and how general is the
desire that he at least remain at his
post until the war is over is peculiarly
emphasized by the statement of lead
ing democrats in this state that if he
will consent to be reelected there will
be no democratic candidate against
him. This is not more significant than
the expressed wish of the president
that the people of Minnesota keep Sen
ate Nelson in the senate, where he
has been one of the most loyal and
helpful of the supporters of the adj
ministration in the declaration and
prosecution Of the war. Senator Mel
son is modest man, but even he must
recognize the sincerity of the appeal
made to him, and if he is not as firmly
resolved to retire as he was a few
months ago it is simply because he is
actuated by the same sense of duty,
even at great personal sacrifice, which
sent him to the front in 1861.-Minne-
apolis Tribune.
