Lane, who is ineligible for the presi- dency because he was born in Canada. “That, of course, is an exag geration by the blithesome poli- ticlans of the current gossip attributing presidential aspirations to five of the nine eligible memlbers of the cabinet. The five, in the order in which their political importance is rated are; “Secretary of the Treasury W. G. McAdoo, the president’s gon-in-law; Secretary of War H. D. Baker; Secretary of Agricul- ture D. F. Houston; Postmaster General A. K. Burleson; Secretary of State Robert Lansing. “All these cabinet officers, except Secretary McAdoo, have denied they are harboring any idea of receiving the nomination from the next Democratic national convention. Whereupon the politicians have merely smiled and murmured that, of course, no loyal officer of the administration will admit harboring such jdeas unless President Wilson makes it clear that he does not intend to accept a third term. “The general view seems to be that any official who makes good conspicuously in handling the vast problems of the war, will -make himself thereby a formidable claimant for the demo- cratic nomination. Republican candidates are not to be made in this way, as things look now, for the president has carefully re- frained from summoning republicans to his assistance in the con- duct of the war.” For the past few weeks there have been rumblings in the press of the country that McAdoo, secretary of the treasury and son-in-law of the president, also Secretary of War Baker had aspirations to the presidency, but from this last report it would seem as if the presidential galaxy were all possessed with the idea they would make ideal heads of the govern- ment. But before some of them start it might be well for Postmaster General Burleson to take off the gag on the newspapers so they will not be in danger of being quartered and hung for what the people might have to say about their fitness. There’ll be plenty. WHO WANTS PICTURE OF ENGINE? (American Press) Critics of the bureau of pubilc information, of which George Creel is chairman, must run to cover, for it is the fond hope of the committee to show a financial profit. This financial return is expected to come from the sale of war photo- graphs to the newspapers at $2 a copy. The pictures are to be gathered from the files of the signal corps photographers. Instead of applying the revenue to the cost of operating the bureau it is the intention of Mr. Creel to turn over all profits to the treasury. The Creel committee is being operated under a $100,000,000 fund appropriated as a ‘“blanket” sum for the use of the president. No infor- mation ever has been given out as to the cost of operating the organiza- tion, but the staff uniformly is said to receive high salaries. The picture division of the bureau is the latest enterprise éngineered by Mr. Creel. Posted on the bulletn board of the committee’s headquarters are three photographs, which are for sale at $2 each. One is a cute little thing showing a lot of marines sitting on top of a house; another is a railway car, and the other is a locomotive built by the Baldwin Locomotive works for government service in France. HERE is more of the true spirit of Xmas in a photograph of your- self than in any other gift you could choose. Then, too, photographs are economical, and they are always ap- preciated. Make arrangements TO- DAY for a sitting before the rush commences. Hakkerup Studio Bemidjr Makers of Likenesses by Photography I have two carloads of breeding ewes in transit, which will arrive here Thursday morning. There are 400 choice Western breeding ewes in the lot which are of a class best fitted for the successful foundation of the sheep industry in this northern clim- ate. Come and See Me We have been in correspondence with your association officers and have decided the best way to intro- duce ourselves is to produce the sheep to show. We do not know of a section of country that has the natural advan- tages for the successful carrying on of breeding and feeding sheep that Northern Minnesota offers. Come in and let me show you the possibilities of this money making game. Sheep will be at the N. P. Stock Yards. You will find me at the Markham hotel or at the stock yards.
