WHO MAKES the ROAR.

From the roar going up in Kandiy-
Obi county over the cost of prosecu-
ting illegal liquor vendors, the blind
pig system now in vogue at Willmar,
does not seem to be noticeable i'm
provement over the open saloon, after
all. The drug stores might we'll aft ord
to stand the cost of prosecution
Olivia Review.
The ''roar" about the cost comes
from the sympathizers of the pigs who
want the people of the villages of the
county to make the business respecta-
BILE by their votes. Blind-pigging is
obviously not the greatly renumera-
tive business that it is reputed to be,
except in cases where a gambling den
is run in connection. These latter
joints have run continuously, whether
saloons are legalized or not. The or
binary pigger is q forsaken fellow,
and leads hand to mouth existence.
He is encouraged and grub-staked by
the brewing companies, that are inter-
ested in making the no-license system
as odious as possible. A person who
lives in the vicinity of the beer depots
Informs us that only about one-third
the number of cars arrive there now
in comparison with the number re-
ceived during the saloon year. The
two brewing companies both have re-
tail as we'll as wholesale government
licenses to cover their business at
Willmar, which is significant. But
Willmar people, are made of better
stuff than to surrender to the dictates
of the liquor push. Willmar will get
rid of her "blind-pig SYSTEM in due
time, and her blind-pig administration
as we'll. And it will not be by writing
out certificates of good character for
the different joints, either.

Salem Merchants Have
a Heavy Holiday
Trade
Stores Packed With Rare
Stacks and Happy
Buyers

Much interest is being manifested
In holiday shopping, and, as buyers
are anxious to know what they can
get for their friends and dear ones,
they naturally turn to the newspaper
advertisements to form an idea OF
what is offered. In fact, many good
suggestions can thus be obtained, and
the advertisements have more to do
with directing the trend of purchases
than any other one agency In The
Journal can be found at this season
offers that will tempt the most dis
eliminating buyers.
Merchants very generally report
that the holiday shopping is coming
apace, as it never. has before. There
have been more early lockers than
have ever before been known so early
in the season, and all dealers are feel
ing very cheerful over the outlook.
Hundreds Of packages have been laid
aside for patrons and the shoppers
are beginning to pack the stores. The
Journal would volunteer the sugges-
ton that city shoppers get into the
stores as early in the day as possible,
to make room for the people from tho
surrounding country who are most apt
to come in during the afternoons. Let
the merchants and their corps Of
clerks be given consideration during
this season, when they are very busy,
and doing everything to please the
multitude OF buyers.

sHuDpER IN THIS CASTLE.
Secret Of eIamls Known only to


Three Of the Strathmores.
It would be rather interesting to
know whether Lord and Lady Stfath-
mores golden wedding festivities,
held at Glamis castle the other day
had any shadow cast upon them by
the strange Secret" which for so
many years has hung like a pail over
this historic Scotch pile. What this
secret is only three-or perhaps
four--people in the world know, these
being the lord of Glamis himself
his heir and the steward of his estate.
For this secret in real life, like those
in the old tales, Is revealed by
every carl OF Strathmore to his eldest
son. when the latter comes Of age
and he, in turn, passes II down.
Toward the solution of the mystery
which is famous throughout Scot
land-an uncommon number Of theo-
ries have been advanced. Il is known,
that the secret" is connected with
one OF the rooms in GIamis castle.
and so most people believe that cham
ber. into which coming earls OF Strath-
more are taken solemnly on their
twenty-hrst irthday-conceals some
monster The most fantastic and
grewsome of the legends told through.
out the countryside has it that, at
one time a human toad was born
to the house OF Styathmore, and,
moreover, that this monstrosity was
imbued with something like immor,
tality, for which reason It has had to
be guarded from tho sight OF the
world all this time But saner
legend declares that the secret room
holds the bones of a baud of prisoners
who, in Scotland's days OF strife, were
incarcerated there and starved TO
death.
There really seems 10 be no doubt
that in some rooms Of Glamis castle
there is something that the Strath
mores are unwilling TO have seen.
Some years ago. so say the Scotch pea

man suddcly found himself possessed
OF the desire and rather more than
the means to emigrRte to Australia
and establish himself In that country.
There is another well vouchcd for
story OF how some guests Of the
strathmoros once attempted to solve
the mystery Of Glamis castle. These
folk took advantage Of the absence OF
Lord and Lady Strathmore. who
were paying an afternoon visit away
from the castle, 10 enter every Wis
ible room in the mansion and to hang
a towel out OF the window OF each.
Then they went outside the castle and
got a rather unpleasant thrill when

the turrets there was a easement
from which no towel was hanging.
And though they re-entered the castle
and hunted for the mysterious hidden
chamber, it was all in vain.
The Strathmore family is. of course,
one of the most historic in Scotland,
the earl's ancestors back as far as
1925 having been men of prominence
in the affairs of their country. The
present owner of Glamis is TO- and his
son, who, by the way is Lord Glamis,
