PINE COUNTY When this county was es- tablished in 1856 it was lo- cated in the heart of the great pine region of the state. The valuable timber being readily accessible, was rapidly harvested by the lumbermen and soon after a fire swept over a large portion of the county, destroying everything. in its path. A small stream in the county, tributary to the Kettle River, is known as Pine River, and the county seat is Pine City.

Military and industrial prepared-: ness demanded. Navy large enough to protect Am- ericans everywhere. Army sufficiently large to protect country’s borders and form a strong nucleus for national defense in case of war. Universal military service favored. State militias to be encouraged. “One flag and one faith in Amer- ica.” Administration policy towards Mexico declared ‘“‘weak. and . wob- bling.” Tariff duties sufficient .to equalize wages at home'and abroad urged. Underwood “tariff “denounced as a failure and its repeal demanded. Compensation ‘to mail carrying ships, to be requistioned in case of war, but no government ownership of vessels. Literacy test for all immigrants. Honest neutrality between warring nations of Europe. Child labor and other social justice planks included, but not initiative, referendum- or recall. Progressive. Adequate provision for common defense as the foremost national con- cern. Navy once more second in battle efficiency. Regular army of 250,000 men as the first line of land defense. Military training adequate to or- ganize promptly a citizen soldiery controlled by the national govern- ment. Full suffrage for womren. Reaffirm declarations of platform. Social 'and industrial justice de- manded. Conservation and * development of national resourees. Protective system essential to pros- perity. Permanent expert tariff commission proposed.

(Written for the United Press.) — (By mail.)—The American people have given:their verdict in)the Armemian ish side. Consequently, there are in the Am- erican press and public cpinion ideas totally unjust to the Turks: In order to understand the situa- tion rightly, one has to-knowy first that historically.. the Turks were the most -humane conquering race imaginable. At a time when they had every op- portunity of assimilating the con- quered races by force, they gave them * | freedom of religion, language and freey community ‘organization. Had the Turks behaved as the .| Spaniards have against ‘dissenters in religion or race, there would be no Armenians' and- no Armenian ques- tion today. After the Young-Turkish revolu- i tion in 1908, the Christians acquired absolute equality with the Turks. Their revolutionary activity under the reign of the former sultan was ascribed to their -desire for equal rights of citizenship. It soon became clear that they thought of equal rights only as'a means to the end of E.|a national independent existence. Instead of taking-advantage of the new opportunity they-had to become lawful Ottoman citizens, they estab- lished secret' societies,- made-a large revolutionary organization in the country and distributed arms and bombs among their members. The first duty of every state is to insure its independence.: Therefore, | Turkey had to resort to-all the neces- ! sary measures for this important end.

Especially, during the present war, they did not shrink from open trea- son, and tried to endanger from with- in the existence of their country, or death at four different fronts, with question- without hearing tiré-Tarke-| which was engaged in a fight for life | ’ nim#*fififlilllii - CONVENTIONAEITIES TERK R KKK KKK E K KN Chicago,.
