A. O. Preus, Governor of Minnesota. Editor's Note . A. 0. Preus, is governor of a great state whose wealth has long been dependent upon its transportation facilities. Its great est products were wheat and wood and the former is still its most valu able output. Transportation, swift nd sure, has always been a domin ant need in the state and its leading citizens in all walks of life have de voted much thought to the problem. Governor Preus is no exception as the following shows. The transportation problem has become the most important and at times the most ' acute problem be fore the American people. Previous to the nineteenth century, people got along without any general transport ation systems. They lived where they could get fuel, food and build ing material at close range. Cloth- nc was mostly homespun. um- merce, such as existed, by ship or caravan, was largely in luxuries. There was no general exchange of everyday necessities such as exists today. Under such circumstances a re gion which was rich in some special resources but which lacked in others, could never hope for rapid develop ment. The fertile plains of the cen tral states could produce food to sup port millions of people, br.t those people could not reach the degree of comfort and culture which they en joy without railroads to bring in an abundance of fuel, lumber, machin ery and other necessities. In like manner the coal regions oi Pennsylvania, the cotton fields of the South, the Lake Superior iron dis tricts, the orchard valleys of Califor nia, the copper country of Montana, and dozens of other regions would be limited to a small fraction of their present output. The Greatest Era. The greatest era of railroad devel opment came during the twenty-five year period following the Civil War, sue a conservative ana economic course. I believe in applying strict business methods to public matters. When we can pay for public develop ment we should have betterments, but when taxes grow burdensome we must be content with the old ways un til we can do better. Just now taxes must be trimmed wherever possible and no new appropriations made; and the pressing need of the farmer and stockman must be the mam issue in law making and in the sphere of public influence. E. P. Dodd, Hermiston, Ore. Paid Advertisement. For County Commissioner. After being urged by citizens and taxpayers in all parts of the county to anounce myself as a candidate for the nomination for County Cmmis- sioner, 1 have decided to do so and will be a candidate for such nomina tion on the Democratic ticket at the coniine primaries. I have been a taxpayer here since before Morrow county was organized. I have no platform to announce nor promises tc make only that, if elected, 1 will endeavor to serve the people of the county to the best of my ability. K. L. bENGE. Paid Advertisement.

Railroad man agers were crticized and ridiculed for building through thousands ot miles of wilderness. But the rails turned wilderness into civilization. Soon business developed which taxed the capacity of the railroads. Rail road building slowed down, but busi ness kept on growing. During the last decade or two we have seen all too frequently crops going to waste and business of all kinds hampered because railroads were unable to supply cars to move materials expe ditiously. A group of sixteen central and western states, of which Minnesota is ene, supplies 75 per cent of the wheat, 65 per cent of the corn, 100 per cent of the flax, 85 per cent of the iron ore, 74 per cent of the zinc, and more than half of the beef, pork, butter, cheese, eggs, potatoes and beet sugar produced in the United States. The question now is : Shall we in crease our production of these things, as the demand increases, and ex change them for things which can be produced more easily and profitably elsewhere? Or shall we slow up and begin producing articles which we now import? We can do the latter if it becomes necessary, but we pre fer to do the former if we may. Our future course depends upon our transportation facilities. The Rail Problem. It has been estimated that $4,000, 000,000 would be needed to supply the tracks, terminals and rolling stock which would enable the rail roads to handle expeditiously an am ount of traffic such as they had to handle in 1917 to 1919. Before in vestors will contribute money to rail road building, it will be necessary to increase the earnings of the rail roads. But there is a point beyond which freight and passenger rates cannot be increased without destroy ing the business. That has become quite plain during the last year and a Quarter. What then must we do? We can not net along without the railroads We must see that their earnings are sufficient to enable them to maintain a high standard of efficiency, but we must develop supplemental transpor tation systems if we want to continue our agricultural and commercial de velopment. This must come along two lines: Better highways and greater use of automobiles and trucks for short hauls and greater John Wpnamaker The Merchant-Prince of Philadelphia and.New York Says: "It seems to me that retail advertising is a very simple matter in these times, when the newspaper goes into every home in the land. I believe that the retail merchant who fails to advertise, fails in his duty to his customers. The public has a right to know what a merchant is doing; it has a right to know what sort of goods he has in his establish ment, and what kind of service he-renders, and what the conditions of his service are. It has a right to know when he receives new goods and has a right to know what the new goods are like. "No merchant nowadays ought to expect the pubic to give him its patronage unless he comes out frankly and tells the public what reasons he has to expect its patronage. And he ought to do this in the daily newspapers or the weekly news papers if there is no daily in his town. That's the way for him to stand fair and square with the peo ple whom he expects to come in and buy his goods. "Let his advertisement be the truthful news of what he is doing, and let him print it in the news paper, where news belongs, and then he will be playing fair with the public and deserving of its confidence." We have a large and complete assortment of ad vertising illustrations at your command. Advertise in Gazette -Times use of waterways for long hauls and bulky articles. Most of the states have made a start along the right lines in highway building and if they can continue ac cording to present programs we will in a few years have an excellent sys tem of highways. The use of auto mobiles for passenger traffic long ago reached a point where it ser iously cut into the railroad passenger traffic. We may, however, look for a much greater use of trucks for is "new business but they will also short hauls. Much of their business take away from the railroads much of the short haul traffic which has never been very profitable to the cads but which has had much to do with congestion in terminals. Our Waterways. In the use of waterways we have gone backward rather than forward. This is partly because our railroads have been so efficient. No other country in the world has railroads which can be compared with ours. Nor is there any civilized, commer cial nation making so little use of waterways as we do. True, Europe's contour has given her better access to the ocean than we have, but she has also gone much farther than we in developing streams and canals. We have wasted hundreds of mil lions of dollars on our inland water ways. No one in patricular is to blame. The main reason is that we have gone on without any definite plan, or where there was a plan, it was carried out, if at all, only piece meal. In the case of the Panama canal, however, our government had a def inite, complete plan, and went in and finished the job in a business-like way. The whole country has benefitted and no one questions the wisdom of the expenditure. The states on the coast, east, south and west, however, are receiving the greater benefits and states in the north-central group, like Minnesota, get comparatively little benefit from the canal. True, we have the Great Lakes, but thev are not open to the sea. When we start a cargo from Duluth to Europe, we must pay for a portage across New York state which costs as much or more than the combined cost of water transportation down the lakes and across the Atlantic. Here Is a Remedy. To remedy this, it is now proposed tlyit the United States join with Can ada in opening up the St. Lawrence river. The U. S. Army engineers have reported that for about $270, 000,000 locks and dams can be built which will permit all ocean going vessels except the largest leviathans to come up to our lake ports. Can ada offers to pay half the cost, mak ing the cost to us a little more than one-fourth of what we spent on the Panama canal. The army engineers believe that the horse power devel oped at the dams to be built will not only take care of the cost of opera tion but will in time pay for the en tire cost of construction. These pow er benefits Canada offers to share with us. The states which will benefit most are those which receive the lesser benefits from the Panama canal. That would make things fair all around. We believe, however, that the entire country would benefit, except the private interests which now profit from the transfer of freight across New York. The Soo canal has a ton nage of seventy to ninety millions a year, while the Panama exceeded 10.000,000 for the first time in 1920. With the way open to the sea, traffic on the Great Lakes will be doubled or trebled. We cannot doubt that this great industrial and agricultural region, which includes America's second, fourth and fifth largest cities, will send down through the St. Law rence a tonnage much greater than Panama's. These states are entitled to a route direct to the ocean. There are several other waterway projects which are worthy of consid eration. Each should be investigated, and costs weighed against benefits. Wherever it can be shown that bene fits exceed the cost, the work should be expedited. Expenditures for piece meal and haphazard waterway im provements should be stopped. Seeed Potatoes Inspected. Since there is so little certified seed potatoes this year the exper- Liinent station is receiving samples of potatoes which are being inspected for seed purposes. Farmers wno want to k-iow how good their stock is may find out roughly by sending in 35 to 50 typical potatoes for tv niitna'icn. There are indication f a Mtnnp demand for certified ".' U this year.
