F. Houk, state labor commissioner, will not find it necessary to remove Miss Agnes Peterson, head of the woman’s division of the state labor depart- ment, as is rumored. The division has reached its highest point of effi- ciency during the two years in which Miss Peterson has been in charge So successful has been her work that the women'’s organizations of the en- tire state have entered a protest against her discharge; it being un- derstood that they will not tolerate a change. The greatness of Minnesota as a state grows more evident each day and the attention of the entire na- tion has been attracted by its ree- ords of production, both in agricul- ture and dairying. “If a man has a farm in Minnesota, and wants to farm, he had better stay where he is—right in Minnesota, one of the best states in the Union,” writes H. B. Southworth, formerly an enter- prising resident of Bemidji, but now located in the state of Washington. It is such testimonials as this whick cause citizens of the Gopher state to hold in just esteem the common- wealth in which they reside. An Unwelcome Intruder. Some people must be saved from their friends. President Wilson is in need of being saved from his cabiner officers. Three or four of them are either so inefficient or so wanting in statesmanship and good, hard sense that they have embarrassed the pres- ident not a little in the course of his administration. McAdoo with his in- famous blacklisting of strong banks; Daniels with his busybody methods of “improving’” the navy; Bryan with his asinine resignation; and Wilson of the labor department with his passion for unionism to the execlu- sion of all other interests—these men have done President Wilson a lot of harm, says the St. Paul Dispatch. Now comes Secretary of Commerce Redfield by his “know-it-all” attitude in the investigation of the Eastland disaster at Chicago, by his painful attempts at facetiousness at a time _ when the shadow of the great tragedy ldy upon the city, and by his virtual Whitewashing of the Federal inspect- ors, he has stirred the people of Chi- cago up to such a frenzy that they _‘are demanding his withdrawal fror the city, and even calling for his resignation from the cabinet. Such is the pretty work of one of President Wilson’s official family. Exactly when he has Germany and Great Britain and Mexico on his hands, it is too bad he must be both- ered with a serious public flareuy: against his secretary of commerce.

From this time on the county option forces will meet with more strenuous opposition. = The breweries and saloons are making a personal and direct appeal to the farmers, and the argument is based on the statements that by putting the breweries out of business the market for barley will be greatly injured, and that the farmers will be the largest losers. What this claim may lack in sound logie, it is having its effect and many farmers are vo- ting ‘‘wet” to protect the price of barley.

WANT LARGE INDEMNITY TO RELINQUISH TERRITORY By ARTHUR E. MANN. ‘Washington, Aug. 4.—“The only conditions on which the Union of South Africa would be willing to rel- inquish the German South African territory recently captured, would be upon the payment of a large indem- nity,” said P. J. von Schreuder, who has been sent to.this country by the Boer government to study American agricultural methods. “I do mnot give this as my personal opinion,” he said. “It seems to be the over- whelming sentiment both among Boer political leaders and the mass of the. people. “The Union of South Africa sacri- ficed a great deal in making this campaign against the Germans and they deserve a great deal of credit when you consider that they did not regard themselves as necessarily in- volved in the war and also because they received no help from England in the way of men or munitions. We did get a loan of $35,000,000 from England but without this it would have been impossible for us to make the campaign. In fact the loan was made, not so much at our request, ‘| but at the behest of the British gov- ernment which wished us to drive the Germans out of South Africa. At that, the money was not a gift and will be repaid without a moment of hesitation unless the British govern- ment should voluntarily offer to can- cel the loan. “In consideration of these facts it can hardly be expected that the Union of South Africa would lock with any degree of favor on the prospect of having to return to Ger- many her hard earned conquest un- less there is given her in return enough money to make up for the economic loss. “I have heard some talk that per- haps the British government might be willing to grant the Boers a larger measure of home rule if they gave up the conquered territory, but that is impossible. We have as great a measure of home rule now as is possible if we are still remain a col- ony of England. Any further con- cession on England’s part and we would logically become a free an? independent state. “And that brings me to remark on the danger to England which would result in the event that she endeavored to force conditions upon the Union of South Africa at-the conclusion of the war which we did not favor. During the recent rebel- lion led by-Gen. De Wet thére were many citizens, some of them a power in the state, who, while not taking part physically in the rebellion, were yet in sympathy with the movement and only refused their actual phys- ical aid because they did not think that was the time to endanger Eng- land’s existence by adding to her al- ready great troubles. But should England, at the conclusion of the war, act in a manner inconsistent with the spirit of independence and Tove of liberty of the Boers, she might bring about a rebellion whicn would assume serious proportions. “And it is quite likely that Eng- land, that is the British Isles, would not enjoy the notion of the Union of ‘South Africa as an independent state. Not because she has- any bullying ambitions fo possess _ the country, but because she realizes how valuable we are in furnishing her with much needed supplies. We are now sending her vast quantities of grain, wool, hides and with the ac- quisition of German South Africa-we will be able to send her a great deal of beef. ““As a British colony it is not prob- able that we.would ever impose any tariffs on exports which would be unfavorable to the home country but were we independent and should such legislation at any time appear ad- vantagous to us, there would be no reason why we should then hesitate to improve our economic resources in that way. Considering the Union of supplies in time of war, our import- ance as a British colony will easily . Republicans, let us give you a land.” be seen. Were we independent and were England to go to war again, it might easily be possible that our supplies would be totally donled Ens South Africa as a source of English}’ If you, don't believe it bargains. here in town. money at home. The Meteoric Hypothesis. ‘The nebular hypothesis of La Place has been abandoned in favor of the me- teoric hypothesis of Lockyer and plan- itesmal hypothesis of Chamberlain, All suns, planets and moons, by these two nearly identical theories, were made by the falling in from space of small cos- mical bodies, such as the meteors now falling on the earth. * Trillions of years ago there was a meteor moving in space. It is now. in the center of the earth. Another me- teor joined this by collision, then an- other, and this falling in is now going on at a vastly diminished rate, so that comparatively few are now coming in, as may be scen on almost any clear night.—Edgar Lucien Larkin in New York American. White Man’s Graveyard. Africa is a remarkably beautiful country. Its coast lines are pictur- esque, graceful, fascinating, alluring: Its seaport towns and cities are usual- ly clean, pretty and reasonably health- ful. Equatorial Africa has, until the last two decades, been called the white man’s graveyard, but clean living, qui- nine, mosquito netting, sobriety and sanitary improvements have made Af- rica a place where one can not only ex- ist, but live in as much comfort, take it all in all during the year, as in the city of New York.—New York Tele- gram.

His coat is of such nature that it is suited to any climate and he is a highly intelligent dog with a wonderful power of scenting and hearing, is of a desirable size and is often used as a scout or sentry as well as an aid to the Red Cross serv- ice. The Airedale can readily distin- guish the smell of his master from that of a stranger. These military dogs are taught not to bark. When they scent the enemy they give a low growl and often will stand like a pointer. They are of great service as night sen- tries.—Argonaut.
