'soil, we have visions in the next quarter century of a state of! inestimable agricultural wealth teeming with a large popula- #ion north of the present cities of Minneapolis and_St. Pau_l. Long before that time, Duluth will have become am—Atlantic| seaboard port, and ocean steamers will be daily nosing their| bows into one of the many docks ready to receive them. The northern portion of Minnesota will be so located that in the price of the products of the land, it will be on a par with the| eastern states, the long freight haul on the railway will have been eliminated, manufactured articles and foodstuffs will be loaded in Duluth for Europe, South America and other foreign lands. Duluth will also have become one of the important immi- gration landing ports of the American continent. Instead of the teeming thousands coming into New York or Boston and settling in the great eastern cities, already much over-crowded, they will be landed at Duluth and forwarded to the vacant Jands of Northern Minnesota, where, guided by soil surveys, the immigration department of the state will locate them on good land and immediately make them producers instead of | consumers, as they now are in the eastern cities. It is now time that the twin ports at the Head of the Lakes; should begin to plan for that occasion, which is inevitable, and| which, when it comes, Duluth and Superior should be ready to take advantage of. A tremendous territory can and should be supplied with the required imports from foreign countries through the ports at the head of Lake Superior, and we, believe| Duluth and Superior are already awake to the importance of this, We, of Bemidji, will be very close to the end of what will| be another important transcontinental system of railway trans-| portation, with Duluth as the terminus. L e | OF THE PEOPLE, BY THE PEOPLE AND FOR THE PECPLE, When a man is placed in a vosition of great trust by the! people of his commonwealth, and circumstances arise which| evidence a betrayal of that trust, that man, regardless of his, official status, should never get the idea that he is above the. people who put him in his position. His duty is to convincd the people that he has not violated that trust, if that be the truthi of the matter, or submit to the same punishment as he would through his own position require of another citizen of that commonwealth, i Governor Small of Illinois has well lived up to his name in the action he has tried to take of defying the wishes of the! people who placed him in his official position. His tactics, however, are of a like nature to- those of other officials of the same stripe who are good friends of his and who do not live a thousand miles from Governor Small. If the charges against should easily be able to so prove—if not, he should be subjected | to the course of the law as any other citizen of theistate of Illi- nois would have to be. DRASTIC SLASHING The determination to economize has seized every senator and member of the house, The appropriation bills enacted at the last session seemed to be the last word in retrenchment, but the committees that frame the money bills declare that addi-: tional savings must be made through the abolition of certain ac- tivities of the government and the reorganization of others. In that purpose they have the membership of both houses behind them, and the bills to be enacted for the fiscal year 1923 will; show even more drastic cuts than have characterized similar! measures for the present year. - | Oy SR—— CORROBORATED The senate simply corroborated the finding of the people when it decided against Secretary Daniels and upheld the con-| tentions of Admiral Sims respecting the conduct of the navy during the war, But it is satisfying to the public to know that! proof was not wanting that the ballots of November last, whichThe Lame Man Healed. voted Daniels and his crowd out of office, were worthily cast.

M. Porter of the Woodlands section of the Ameri- can ‘Paper and Pulp association. Detailed: comparative figures by various operators show that the use of the tractor has cut the cost of hauling wood to one third or one quarter of the old cost of operations by horse equipment. The figures given by these opera- tors’: 2 ply equally well to lumber op- erations as to woods camps of the paper industry, for the hauling prob- lem is identical in both types of cut- tings. O. L. E. Weber, of the Watab Pa- per company, Sartell, told of exten- sive use last winter of tractors, un- der conditions where horses could notl be used at times, ;but he made his comparison on' costs on the basis| of horse equipment on passable roads. He figured that @ 10-ton tractor would do the work of 36 horses, and a 5-ton machine of 16 horses. He made hiy cost comparison on the ba- sis of 5,000 cordy of pulp wood, 3 000tamarack and cedar ties, 30,000 cedar posts, and 750,000 feet of Nor- way pine where he actually used tractors, but where he estimated th cost of horse operation. under condi- tions of previous years. The cost of the job with tractors was actually $2,150. The cost: with horses would have been $10,000 including cost of equipment in both cases. Stanley H. Sisson, of the Racquette River Paper company, operating in Northern: New York, told of hauling 23,000 cords of 16-foot peeled wood 10 to 12 miles, an average of 653 | cords per day per tractor, handling 15,000 cords in 38 days. His com- parison with horse equipment was as fololws: One team hauling 9 cords per trip, double headers at landing: costing $15.50 per day, or $1.72 per cord. The tractor cost, on a basis of 60 cords, with two trips daily to landings, was $43.06 per day, or $0.717 per cord. He, like the other wocds superintendents, said that care in repairs and maintenance of jthac- tors was vital to their successful op- eraticn, and also urged care in di: patching trains of sleds or wagons. with extra equipment being loaded or unloaded while the machine was on the road. C. L. Tolles of the Phoenix Manu- facturing company of Eau Claire, Wis., giving figures for a steam hanl- er, with lon trains of sleighs, said ber, board measure while natives us- ing [horses were forced to pay $10, and then failed to get all their tim- ber out. Thid was on a 10% mile haul, and on a /7% mile haul, the motor equipment cost $1 per thous- and, as agatnst $7 for horse hauls. that ‘the motorized cost was only about one gquarter that of horse oper- ations. $ E. A. Drott, of Drott & Newall, handling another Wisconsin logging operation said his motor hauling cost him $1.50 per thousand feet of lum- T S —— $5 REWARD Will be paid to the person who locates a suitable house for rent.
