WE SECOND THE MOTION.

Time is not far distant when this
legislative district must present its
candidates to represent its people in
the state legislature. 1t is important
that good men be chosen. The dist
riot has too important interests at
stake to leave the matter of candi-
dacy up to individuals to decide for
themselves. 1t is decidedly import
ant that the people should encourage
the very best material it has to be-
come candidates. 1t takes encour-
agement and persuasion and lots of
it to cause the kind Of men we should
have to represent US to make the
necessary sacrifice. If the people
have the best to choose from their
choice will be the best. Then a
great deal Of consideration must be
given by this congressional district
in getting good men in the primaries
for congress. Mr.. w. L. Carss of
Proctor has developed into what it
was thought he would amount to
the smallest potato the district has
ever sent to Washington. The Range
has some mighty fine men, who, if
they could be induced to enter the
race would be credit to the dist
riot if they reached the goal. Prin-
cipal among such men is R. w.
Hitchcock, editor and publisher of
the Hibbing Tribune, good roads ad-
vocate and all around genuine Nor
thern Minnesotan Now is the time
to prepare and the people. should show
as much interest in the selection of
their candidates for the primaries as
they are in the election of their rep
resentatives at the election.-Chis-
holm Tribune.

The recent coal strike has taught us that
the coal mines from now on should be in hands
that can be depended upon. The entire
country is at the mercy of the mines-summer
or winter The loss of coal means more than
a lack of fuel. It means idleness for thousands
not coal miners. The strike has made us to
realize how the prosperity of the country de-
ponds upon the coal supply. It is the main
spring of our business world. And when bust
ness stops, we all stop. Therefore it would be
the better part of good judgement to locate
the ownership ond operation of the mines in
hands that can be trusted. The operators of
them and the miners have shown their hands
now to every person in the United States Will
the government allow them to hold this lead
pipe cinch over us longer? We are chumps
Iif we allow late conditions to continue. A
stable coal supply should be maintained. The
local is here and the demand certain and is in
Icreasng year by year. It's supply then should
be made certain and capable of supplying in
Icreasing needs. There are lot of things that
need fixing, of course, but the coal supply
should be taken out of the uncertainties class.

The man with a thermometer these recent
days that only registers SO below and the other
fellows machine goes to rs below, has cheap
skate of an outfit and is laughed to scorn His
is "Flivver'' alongside the others "Limmi-
zeen." And each man from the SO to the rs
is ready to husk his coat in defense of his par
ticular machine readings. Even the Govern
ment records are doubted after a look at our
own machine there on the corner of the house.
Any machine in Ely has been tested enough
SO far as we are concerned. The frost pictures
on the windows may be beautiful, but as for us,
the rustic of the royal palms in the tropics and
the swish of the Gulf Stream is sweeter. Santa
Claus and his RENDERS might not get here but
for the snow and cold, but we'd like to miss
seeing his tracks this winter if these thermom-
eters keep on trying to break themselves as they
have for few weeks in the immediate past.

1t behooves us all these days to take longer
steps so that we will not wear out our shoes.
What, with an increase in the price of them of
something like !22 per cent in the last couple
steps or longer purses will be required shortly.
We Americans will never wear wooden shoes,
or shoes that are not stylish down to day after
tomorrow, wager on that. Wen have 'em and
have the best as WELL No matter what the
price will be. Old timers who once wore the
best at $3.50 per had better wear a gas mask
today when they inquire the price of pair of
Icowhides.

Unless human nature changes nightly, we
must build and maintain a navy equalled by no
other country. We must have an army in
readiness to match and overthrow any other
army on earth, or combination of armies.
This is the truth and we all know it. We may
ldecry war and military training of our youth,
but the fact still remains that we must be ready
lat all times to defend our homes and our
country to the last ditch. Other countries need
never fear of an invasion from the United
States so long as they treat us decently. We
are not for war or for increased territory But,
we can fight like'll when we are pushed to it.
And in view of the past 5000 years, it behooves
us to build ships, make all the deadly instru-
ments of warfare that we can, and be ready to
push in the face of any country that desires to
come across and mop us up. No American
wants war. We did not enter the late war un-
til forced for our own safety. And then we
went in and finished it. Peace universal is de-
sired. Wars have always been fought. They
always will. Three have come within the life
time of many today. We are pacifst, first,
last and always-but, no country can tell us
where to head in at. We are no conscience
objector but can fight if need be. Our best
bet in this country is to put our trust in God,
and then be did sure to have dry powder when
the need comes for it, as it surely will in time.
Build the battleships and have them anchored
broadside on. This country is a rich loot for
other countries. With a little 22-cal. pistol in
our vest pocket, no one will be afraid of us.
But with pair of AS swinging handy, the in
Evader will have another think coming before
he weighs anchor and sails away after. our
|scalps.

In DEFENSE OF WOMAN.

A San Francisco dispatch tells of
a loving husband who came home
soused, beat up his wife and broke
the furniture, all for no apparent
reason, and was fined by the court
the next day the appalling sum of
$40 and costs. It ought to have been
a million, with a beating by the
sheriff that would have broken every
bone in his body, and then some.
If there is an ornery critter on this
beautiful green earth it is man. The
very first man started out by blam-
ing it all on the woman and he
probably lied about it like a pirate,
because it is man and not woman
that has been shaking the tree for
those kind Of apples ever since.
Woman is better than man every
jump in the road, and gets the worst
of it Systematically and everlastingly.
She has made men out of all of us,
or we would have been savages yet,
and some of us are savages anyhow,
like that guy the dispatch tells about,
in spite Of her blessed influence.
1t was woman that was first at His
cross and last at His sepulcher. She
is the shining star in Gods glad
creation; the graces and muses. COM
bined; the whole derned thing! And
so we maintain that when a man goes
out and loads up on booze and ben
zine, chases everything that is fleet
footed and then comes home with a
breath that would break the Golden
Gate off It's hinges, and beats up his
wife, breaks the furniture and mus
ses up the carpet, that the woman
ought to use dum-dum bullets, cyan
ide, sabers, bayonets, Krupp guns,
stones, clubs, broomsticks, frying
pans, fiatirons, rolling pins, hot water
and tongue lashing that would
wither up the vegetation for miles
around, and we hereby officially ten
der cur services in holding her coat,
or shirtwaist, or any other garment
or lingerie she may need to shed in
clearing the decks for action

HOLIDAY SUGGESTIONS.

The State Fire Marshal makes the
following suggestions for Christmas:
Do not take foolish risks.
Try to have good time, but do
not endanger life and property in
doing so.
Remember safety first.
Do not use lighted candles on
Christmas trees; get the electric
kind, carefully wired.
! If candles are used, permit elders
only to light them and see that they
are not in close proximity to any
thing infammable.
Keep all matches away from the
children.
Fire proof all flimsy decorations
| if possible and do not use cotton
batting for snow effects or tissue pa
per for decorative purposes under
any conditions.
For snow effects use mineral wool.
If there are any open gas jets
see that they are protected and that
there are no drafts while the tree is
lighted.
Have a fire extinguisher of some
sort handy.
Remove all Christmas trees within
two or three days. Some persons
| allow them to remain until New
Years. This is wrong. There is
nothing more infiammable than dry
Christmas greens.
Fire once started in room deco
rated for Christmas is likely to
spread with terrible swiftness.
Every year the papers tell of many
homes destroyed and many people
burned to death as the result OF
Christmas fires.
Christmas trees and lighted can.
dies, not to mention the usual decora.
tive scheme of cotton batting, It's
sue paper and celluloid gee gaws are
not the only holiday fire hazards.
We have with us about this time
the careless merchant who fills his
show windows with costly holiday
goods-much of it highly infiam-
mable and then decorates the whole
with trimmings of tissue paper and
cotton batting. In the arrangement
of the lighting scheme, there is either
an open gas jet or electric lights
are carelessly strung about. Similar
carelessness extends to other interior
displays and decorations.
We also have with us about this
time and until the close of the holi-
days the usual line of entertainments
given in homes and churches, schools
and stores. The decorations are us
ually the product of home talent and
are generally of the cheapest and
f1imsiest character obtainable. jap
anese lanterns predominant and
there is always Santa Claus. Safety
is generally secondary.
That many and disastrous fires re-
suit from such is not to be wondered
at and that education has not put
such practices out of business is
something to astonish. The condi-
tions complained of, however, are be-
ing reduced to the minimum. True
in the country districts decorative
and lighting effects are trifle more
crude than those obtainable in the
! population centers, but they are
learning and the Christmas fire rec
ords for Minnesota show it.
Make this Christmas Safety First
Christmas.

Tuesday morning by an alarm from

tendance of children at the school
had been clothed and marched to
