For the purpose of extolling the ad- vantages of Minnesota, three hun- dred newspapers of the state have agreed to issue special editions dur- ing the week of October 10. This plan is in line with ‘Newspaper ‘Week,” which is being promoted by the Minnesota State Editorial asso- ciation. The Pioneer is to participate and copies of the Daily and Weekly will be sent to several hundred people in other states who might become in- terested in Minnesota. The commit- tee in charge of the “week” is giving what assistance possible and has offered many suggestions whieh will give valuable help in making the scheme the success it deserves to be. It is proposed for each paper to print coupons for orders subscribers may send in for extra copies to send to friends in other states. This is the method by which California’s .‘‘newspaper week’” propaganda was carried to millions of readers in other states. The committee also suggests that the co-operation of advertisers be ob- tained, to make the special editions creditable as to size and appearance. The letter is sent out from the office of the state immigration commission by John E. Kienitz, secretary of the editorial committee. Alvah Eastman, chairman of the committee, makes a suggestion in the St. Cloud Journal-Press for making a success .of the special editions. Ie says: “‘Some 200 or 300 Minnesota news- papers during the week of October 10 will issue special Minnesota numbers, telling of the wonders of the state and the beauty and thrift of their own localities. More than 1,000,000 co- pies of these papers will be sent out- side the state and it will be the best advertisement Minnesota ever re ceived: One good feature would be to get reports of the yield of grain this fall, and another would be te have letters from former residents of Iowa, Illinois, Wisconsin, Missouri and other states, who have prospered in the North Star state, telling of their experience here. That is the best kind of evidence that Minnesota is all right.” HEHEKHEKF KK KK KK KKK * EDITORIAL EXPLOSIONS * KR KRR K KKK KK “Barly Chickens Advised” reads a headline in the Minneapolis Tribune. ‘We were always under the impression that late chickens were the ones who needed advice.—Stillwater Prison Mirror.

H. Tavenner.) ‘When Mr. Daniels, for many years editor and publish of the Raleigh (N. C.) News and Observer,. was sworn in as secretary of the navy and had time to look about him, he found that the people’s money was being wasted by the payment of excessive prices for armor and practically all articles required for the navy. Throughout his two years in the cab- inet he has been earnestly endeavor- ing to rescue the public treasury from the patriots for war, who year in and year out have been helping them- selves, seemingly at will, from the public erib. Secretary Daniels has saved the government some $2,000,- 000, which is but a drop in the buckot to the amount he could save if he could obtain government manufacture of everything. In his first annual report for the year 1913 Secretary Daniels asked for an appropriation for an armor- plate factory. I quote from that re- port: “I desire to recommend the pas- sage at the earliest moment of a suf- ficient appropriation to begin the construction of a government armor plant to relieve the situation which, in my estimation, is intolerable and at total variance with the principles of economy in spending government money. Only three firms in this country can manufacture armor plate and these firms have put in bids for armor plate seldom varying over & few dollars, and in many instances being identical to a cent. Asked for reasons as to the uniformity of these bids, two of the firms replied frankly that as the contract would be divided among them anyway, the only effect of competitive bids would be to re- duce the profits made by all of the three firms. “By manufacturing armor plate in its own plant the government will be able to keep for its own use many improvements in the manufacture or composition of its armor that may be developed. The last word has not been said in armor, and past history shows that great improvements in the manufacture and design of armor plate have been made. The greatcr part of these improvements were sug- gested by actual experience gained by naval officers. Under our present system of obtaining our armor plate from private companies such im- provements become the property of all the world and can .be obtained by anybody who cares to buy %hem Even now the improvements in armor and the designs worked out by the navy have been embodied in the war- ship of another nation recently fin- ished by the Bethlehem Steel com- pany and put into commission. This is not an argument lightly to be dis- regarded in favor of a government armor plant, nor has it been over- looked, for instance, by Japan, which has erected its own armor-making plant and surrounded it with sueh secrecy that none of the other nations are able to tell whether or not at this minute the Japanese armor may not be superior to any other in ex- istence. In addition to Japan, the French government, after experi- menting with a factory capable of producing only the lighter weights of armor, is enlarging the government plant so as to permit the production of thick plates, and Russia has had its own armor-plate factory for some time. “I do not see how it is possible for congress to justify to the people a refusal to erect a government plant; nor how it can answer the charge that will invariably be brought up— that the same mysterious Providence which saved this profitable business to the steel companies three times iu the past, even after money for a gov- ernment plant had actually been ap- propriated, is not still at work ex- ercising its beneficient protection _—————— Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. Few medicines have met with more favor or accomplished more good than Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. From a small beginning its sale and use has extended to all parts of the United States and to many foreign countries. Everywhere it has received unstinted praise. We confidently believe that it has relieved more pain and suffer- ing and saved the lives of more peo- ple than any other one preparation in use. One or two doses of it is enough to relieve an ordinary attack of colic or diarrhoea. It has -been used in many epidemics of dysentery with perfect success. It is especially valuable for summer diarrhoeas in children. Every family should keep it at hand as attacks of cholera mor- bus often result fatally before medi- cine can be procured or a physician summoned.
