President Wilson’s message which he delivered to congress yesterday was a triumph—a triumph of calm- ness and sanity, devoted to the ends of patriotic action. Devoted to nationaldefense; 'the question of financing the = defense, revenues, the medium for fostering the most desirable international rela- tions of trade and friendship, a mer- chant marine and the problem of European intrigue on American soil —it was distinctly a war message and it was also a distinctly American message. During the entire long message there was but one note of passion and that was when the president charac- terized the citizens of the United States who have poured the poisen of disloyalty into the arteries of na- tional life. The chief thoughts of the message are as follows: All the governments of America stand on a footing of genuine equal- ity and unquestioned independence. Our concern for the independence and the prosperity of the states of Central and South America is not altered. We still mean always to make a common cause of national in- dependence and of political liberty in America. ‘Whether we have benefited Mexico by the course we have pursued re- mains to be seen. Conquest and dominion are not our reckoning or agreeable to our prin- ciples. We will not - maintain a standing army except for uses which are as necessary in times of peace as in times of war. The plans of the war department contemplate an increase of the stand- ing force of our regular.army to 181,- 843. These are the additions neces- sary to render the army adequate for its present duties. The plan also -contemplates sup- plementing the army ‘by a force of 400,000 disciplined citizens. The program of the secretary of the navy involves-only the’shorten- ing of the time within which plans long matured shall be carried out. It is necessary for many weighty reasons of national efficiency and' de- velopment that: we- should' have a great merchant. marine. There are -citizens of -the United States who have' poured the poison of disloyalty into- the-very arteries of our national life. . Such.creatures. of passion,. disloyalty and anarchy- must be crushed out. WOMEN EDUCATION LEADERS. Of the 12,000 conspicuous ::posi- tions, - largely of an ‘administrative character, listed' in‘the’1915-16 edu- cational directory just:issued>by' the! Bureau of Education at Washington, 2,500 are held: by women. 'There are women who /are ‘college ' presi- dents, state superintendents of pub- lic instruction; directors of industrial training, heads: of departments:of education in colleges and universi- ties, directors of ‘schoolsfor afflicted and exceptional children and: librar- ians. Twenty-four of the 1622 colleges and universities listed in the. direct- tory are presided over by women. Of the nearly 3,000 county superintend- ents in the country, 508 are women.’ The tendency to fill this position with women is almost wholly confined to the ‘West. ~One state, Montana, has not one man as county superintend- ent. Wyoming has only two. -Ken- tucky is the only southern state that‘ utilizes women in “this office; this| state has 26 women as county super-| intendents. On the : other hand, there are only 26 ‘women'city super- intendents in a total of over 2;000. Seventy institutions for the blind are listed in the directory. ~Of these 1b are directed by women. Of the 75 state schools for:the deat, ten arej under the leadership of women; and of the 22 private institutions of ‘the same character, 16 have: women' su- perintendents. Of the:31 private’in-| stitutions: for the feeble-minded, 20 are under supervision of women. Fourteen out of 86 directors of industrial schools are women; and 48 of the 200 schools of art are in charge of - women. --Women -have almost & monopoly on library positions. Out of 1,300 public and :social: libraries given in the directory women super- vise 1,075.

The State Development-conference last: week was a harmonious and judg- matical gathering. It.adopted a sys- tematic program for the development of Minnesota that commends itself to the public by its breadth and its’ practicality. But the spirit behind the program ‘was, ‘after all, the sglient feature of the conference and 'the thing that most inspires hope for the ‘future.] This spirit was that of active, un- selfish co-operation for .the. upbuild- ing of the whole state. It involves the ‘sinking of sectional differences, such as have at times-brought about the pitting against each other of South” and North, of country and city. It calls for the sincere adop- tion of the motto of Dumas’ immortal Musketeers—*‘All for one, and one for all.” The last item on the program, “More farmers for Minnesota,” really contains the pith and point of the whole list. ‘It is the supreme pur- Plonear w‘ln")l‘ocm any kind of DECIDE YOURSELF % The Opportunity is Here, Backed.

Precisely in the propor- tion that more farmers are induced to settle in Minnesota and cultivate the soil, will the development of the state proceed. We have only to as- certain what is necessary to do to secure more farmers, and we shall have learned how to bring this great state into its own. Obviously, if farming is made at- tractive and profitable, the farmers will come. = With this fact as a foun- dation, the other items of the pro- gram naturally follow. See how practically every item bears on this purpose: 5 Passage of Amendment = Number One means that a revolving fund.may be established to clear and make A soil survey means that incoming farmers will have made easier for them the selection of the sort of lands they want. A comprehensive system of state drainage means the reclamation of vast areas of fertile lands for culti— vation. Adoption of Amendment Number Two authorizing the loan of state trust funds on farm lands, together with legislation for a system of rural credits, means that farming enter- prises can be easily and safely financed. ! A state system of arterial roads; the improvement and development. of rural highways, and the enlorcement; of the laws for road-dragging and toq road maintenance generally, menli‘ to get his produce to market cheaply and quickly, and is thus to net larger profits therefrom. The suppression of noxious weeds has an obvious application to the puhv suit of profitable farming. | Forest protection and reforestra- tion of non-agricultural lands may be classed with conservation and propa- gation of fish and game, as measures that will help the farmer indirectly but none the less positively. i | : bt m 0 \SPECIALIST And the need of larger appropria- ' J + Practioe IAmited tions for the State Immigration bu- Phone 481 reau is plainly dictated by the re- solve to have more farmers in Min- nesota. Thus -considered, - the ' ‘program adopted is seen to be admirably fo- cused on the determination to de-j velop agriculture as the keynote of state development. 'The greater suc- cess will follow hard on the heels of general ‘and energetic co-operation. NOTICE.
