when stepped upon.

In refusing to grant the defeated
congressman, Lundeen and Dillon, per-
mission to visit their front line in
France the British military authorities
had good reasons for their action.
They were fully aware Of the fact that
both of these men we're dyed-in-the-
wool pacifsts and opposed to the Will
son administration, therefore they de-
cided to take no chances on their
spreading of peace propaganda at the
front. So far so good, but had we
been the official who issues permits
for the front we would, with pleasure,
have granted these ants their request
and provided them with an escort. We
would have instructed this escort, upon
reaching the front, to chase Ernie and
his companion across country and into
the German lines, where they belong.

Big Bill Haywood, the blatant head
center of the I. w. w., justly merited
the sentence imposed upon him by
Judge Lands 20 years in, Fort
Leavenworth penitentiary and a fine
of $4,000. Years ago, when Hay
wood was being tried for the murder
Of the governor of Idaho, the Union
was inclined to sympathize with him
as we believed he was being perse-
cuted by the enemies of organized
labor. But in the light of subsequent
events we are forced to believe that
his acquitta1 by the jury at that time
was miscarriage Of justice. The
safest place and the only place for him
is behind prison bars, and there is
where he should spend the remainder
Of his days.

"A DESERVED TRIBUTE.

In welcoming the members of the
State Medical Association at Duluth
the, News-Tribune pays this deserved
tribute to those Of the noble profess
sion who are serving their country 50
efficiently at home and abroad in the
terrible war that is now raging:
No profession, no vocation, no class
has risen to and met the demands of
the war more fully nor indeed quite 50
fully, as has the profession Of medi-
cine. The demands upon it were
greater and the response has added a
new dignity as it has a new glory tic
the men who have SO loyalty forgotten
self in the needs of their fellowmen.
Nowhere else has the close connec-
ton between brains and duty finer
illustration. Doctors are seldom rich,
which, too, is to their credit. But they
must have brains and these must be
trained. Their daily tasks also bring,
them in close touch with the miseries
the heartaches, the sorrows and mis-
fortunes Of all the people of all classes
They cannot yield in full measure to
this side of life or they would be
weakened almost to uselessness in
their work Of alienation. But it does
bring them breadth of understanding
and fullness of knowledge which
broadens their vision and creates the
liaison between brain and duty, be.
tween ability and responsibility. @
They have splendidly responded ia
this at this time of their country's
greatest demand. They have put self
to one side and have considered only
their professional opportunity to give
for the good of others and Of their
country. It is as fi1.e an example OF
patriotism carried to internationalism
as this old earth has known. More
over, the doctor knows no enemy. He
ministers alike to friends or foes. He
does not kill; he alone saves.

DESPICABLE WORK.

AT the Fillmore County Sunday
School convention a resolution was
passed protesting against the attitude
of the government in encouraging the
use of tobacco especially in the form
of cigarettes among our soldier boys
for the reason that it destroyed their
efficiency, and it was further resolved
that a formal protest be forwarded to
the war department. praying that the
soldiers be prohibited from using to-
bacco during the period Of the conflict
From this the only conclusion to be
drawn is that these old hens these
long-faced moralists in convention as
sembled- seek to deprive our BOYS of
the only comfort they have in the
trenches upon the grounds that it un-
dermines their efficiency. It is
evident that these lesser microbes with
shriveled souls know nothing Of the
brilliant work our boys are performing
across the seas, otherwise they would
not accuse them of being. inefficient
and endeavor to snatch from them the
harmless cigarette. But these enemies
of the boys in khaki will find that their
protest will fall upon deaf ears-that
the war department will dump their
petition in the same sort of receptacle
that the Union uses for it's doggere]
contributions. And the boys-when
they return home-will avoid these
backstabbers as they would rattle
snake. In our mind there is no one SO
mean and despicable as the person who
seeks to deprive our soldiers Of the
only solace they have. They should be
denounced throughout the length and
breadth of the land and condemned
to eternal damnation.

Berlin doubtless appears a long way

There is, however, an indication that

at their destination, whereupon the
kaiser will order them shot for cow

Americas First Steel Rails.

In 1865, as an experiment, the North
Chicago Rolling Mill company manu-
factured six Bessemer steel rails from
steel produced at Wyandotte, Mich.
They were the first made in America,
the modest beginning of great in
dustry. A New York mill, using ma
terial turned out at Troy, made fur
ther experiments, and In 1867 the
Cambria company began to roll Bes-
semer steel rails as a regular business,
says an exchange. The first rails Of
this type were made and used In Eng
land. They were introduced into
America by the Pennsylvania railroad,
which, in 1853, imported and put into
service 100 tons of steel rails. The
price paid was $3.50 gold per ton,
equivalent In Civil war times to 5000
in American currency. These rails
were made of crucible steel and con-
tanned a high percentage Of carbon,
rendering them brittle. For this rea-
son many broke during the next win
ter, but despite this fact the railway
company placed orders for large guam
titles in Great Britain, paying from
$135 to $162.50 gold per ton.

ENDS ONE NOISE OF CITIES
Invention Of Philadelphia Man Does
Away With Racket When Cars
Cross Intersection.

The problem of suppressing the
noise and shock of the street car In
passing over an intersection has been
attacked in novel manner by Phil
adelphia inventor, Samuel B. Meeker,
who accompllshes the object without
the use of any of the moving and in
terloclling parts which characterize
most of the inventions for this pur-
pose, and without making any great
changes in the design of the crossing
itself. The latter is constructed In
one piece or unit, and at point slight
ly In advance Of the intersection of the
rail sections.
Each rail section is formed with the
face of the rail cut away in an incline
which allows the weight Of the vehicle
to pass from the base Of the wheel to
the flange on which it continues for a
few feet, until the wheels have passed
entirely over the intersection, when the
weight of the car again passes to the
base of the wheel. This change Is so
gradually accomplished that 1t is not
noticeable to the passengers and the
car passes over the crossing without
jolt or noise. The latter Is a matter
of great Importance to persons living
In the Vicinity of such intersections,
for the pounding of the cars over them
at night comprises serious annoy
ance.
