A movement is noted in the Min- nesota legislature to abandon good roads as a state proposition and re- turn to the local control of road building. It would be more accurately de- seribed as a movement to put Minne- sota definitely among the backwoods states, says the Minneapolis Journal. The last legislature authorized a long forward step toward the solu- tion of the roads problem. It con- trived a combination of state and county control, and arranged for the raising of a large fund for the work. This plan has scarcely as yet been tried out. The taxes under its cp- eration are just coming into hand, and the approaching season will see the first real test of its efficacy. Yet it is now seriously proposed to go back into the dark ages of local road work from which Minnesota is just emerging. Those who make this proposal talk of the antagonistic interests of city and country, and of the divirgent needs of the man who drives an automobile and the farmer who drives his wagon to town. This is all moonshine. There is no an- tagonism of interest here. Good roads are as necessary to the cities as tc the country, and as vital to the coun- try as to the cities. The motor- driven vehicle and the one that is horse-drawn benefit equally _ from good roads. Moreover, it is to the interest of the farmer to have his section made readily accessible to automobiles, for it means an influx or travel and trade that are bound to increase all land values. Hotels for .tourists will spring up all along radical roadways. They will furnish a near and profit- able market for all manner of farm products. Minnesota will become what it was so superbly fashioned by nature to become—a paradise for summer outings. Money will pour into the state from all sides. New settlers will come. Prosperity will follow in the wake of good roads, as flowers follow the rain and sunshine. But if Minnesota is satisfied with sloth and had roads, with the inacces- sibility and mud of the backwoods, then by all means let the legislature retrace its steps and abandon the roads to the shiftless inefficiency and disconnectedness of local road build- ing and repair. Let the lesson that has been learned by the more pro- gressive commonwealths go for naught. Let New Jersey and Cali- fornia and Maine and the go-ahead states reap the advantages of their wisdom. Minnesota, it will be said, prefers to lag far in the rear.

The membership is non-partisan as far as its election is concerned, and the experiment will be watched with interest, for if it is successful, there is no reason to doubt the fact that it will be but a short time before every elective state office will be strictly non-partisan, as it should be. In which case pelitical parties will go into discard, and party promises, pledges and patronage will become a relic of bygone days. Party KKK H KK KKK KKK K St. Louis, Jan. 21.—Pools for fix- ing prices and trade combinations of other kinds were urged here today by W. L. Saunders, of the Ingersall- Rand company, New York, as a means of increasing America’s export busi- ness. He was addressing the second annual National Foreign Trade con- vention, which opened at the Plant- ers’ hotel today. ‘“There is nothing in the Sherman law which prohibits price-fixing, pools and trade combinations of American producers in selling goods for delivery abroad,” he declared. “The United States government has no authority in the matter of sales made for delivery to foreign coun- tries. . “It may be best for those who doubt interpretation of the law to bring a test case rather than expect congress to pass permissable legisla- tion. The American exporter is forced to compete with such trade combinations and cartels in all the greater countries of Europe and even in the Balkan States. . “The day is happily past when ‘here is occasion in a discussion of government regulation of commerce, to introduce any question as to what government regulation of commerce should or should not do as far as trade in the United States is con- cerned. The government has de- cided to regulate business and re- cent judicial decisions interpreting the Sherman Act have made plain what it prevents and what it permits. The government started in by a po- licy of protection and patronage which practically freed the American manufacturer in most lines from for- eign competition, but, in doing this, the. welfare of the people at large was at first safeguarded by internal competition. It was found possible, however, to throttle this competition by combinations and consolidation of interest so as to put the public at large at the mercy of a trust which threatened to become, and in such cases did reach, the position of being a private monopoly. Here we have a “BLO0D WILL TELL” The Heroes of the war. “Blood will tell,” is an axiom that in all the ages has never been gain- said. Every man who does a brave, keroic act carries within his veins a quality of blood that urges and sus- tains him. No matter whether he igherits it from a long line of fa- mous ancestors or from the sound and healthy constitution of his im- mediate parents, whose only distine- tion is honorable toil and simple, vir- tuous life. It matters little where or how you obtain it, but it matters all the world that by some means you pos- sess good blood. Good blood is first, last and always the making of manly men and womanly women. It is the source of all courage, virtue and happiness.- A new man can be made out of one that's ‘‘used-up,” bilious and dyspeptic. It’s done by Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery. It starts the torpid liver into healthful ac- tion, purifies and enriches the blood, cleanses, repairs, and strengthens the system, and restores health and vigor. As an appetizing, restora- tive tonic, it sets at work all the pro- cesses of digestion and nutrition, and builds up flesh and strength. It’s the only Blood and Liver Remedy that’'s GUARANTEED, in every case, to benefit or cure. If it doesn’t do all that’s claimed for it, the money is promptly réfunded.

The terms ‘foreign commerce’ which is used in the Sher-{ man law is evidently intended to ap- ply to importations and not exporta- tions, for both are involved in the broad term, ‘foreign commerce.’” ‘“‘Systematized Co-operation’ the scheme urged by H. C. Lewis, general manager of the National Pa- per & Type company, of New York, for boosting the foreign trade of American. manufacturers. “It is practically impossible for the small manufacturer to develop an export business by himself,” he declared, “and it is almost as equally difficult for the large manufacturer to de- velop an export business if his goods are in comparatively small demand in any cne market. “Let five or ten concerns, manufac- turers or handlers of articles re- quired by practically the same line of customers, and more or less close- ly related, organize a company of from $10,000 to $20,000, each sub- seribing from $2,000 to $4,000 of stack, this capital to be used in finan- cing the initial expenses of the busi- ness. ““Then let each concern consign its goods at lowest export prices on the agreement that payment shall be made as payments are received from the ultimate purchaser. The man- ager—who must be perfectly familiar DRESS WARN AND KEEP FEET DRY Tells Rheumatism Sufferers to Take Salts and Get-Rid of Uric Acid. Rheumatism is no respecter of age, sex, color or rank. If not the most dangerous of human afflictioris it s one of the most painful. Those subject to rheumatism should eat less meat, dress as warmly as possible, avoid any undue exposure and, above all, drink’| lots of pure water. i Rheumatism is caused by uric acid which is generated in the bowels and absorbed into the blood. It is the func- tion of the kidneys to filter this- acid from the blood and cast it out in the urine; the pores of the skin are also a means of frecing the blood of this impurity. In damp and chilly, cold weather the skin pores are closed thus forcing the kidneys to do double ‘work, they become weak and sluggish and fail. to eliminate this uric acid which keeps accumulating and circulating through the system, eventually settling in the joints and muscles causing = stiffness, soreness and ‘pain called rheumatism. At the first twinge of rheumatism get from any pharmacy about four otnces of Jad Salts; put a tablespoonful in a glass’ of water and drink ‘before break- fast each morning for a week. This is said to eliminate uric acid by stimu- lating the kidneys to normal action, thus ridding the blood of these impur- ities. Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia and is used with excellent results by thou- sands of folks who are subject to rheu- matism. Here you have a pleasant, ef- fervescent lithia-water _drink _which overcomes uric acid and is beneficial to your kidneys as well. : Notice. To parties who are indebted to W. G.
