FOR A BIG s. S. PARADE
Leaders Of Sunday Schools Want to Get
One Un Here.

. i i . (. =
The superintendent and teachers OF the
Sunday schools Of the city have been con-
sidering the question of having big Sum
day school parade. In many cities a pa
rade Of the little folk is an annual event
and excites a great deal of interest and
enthusiasm. Several years ago success
full parade was held in this city, but thru
lack Of leadership the interest was al
lowed to die down.
Among the present earnest workers are
the Rev. Robert Herrick, Congregational
state Sunday school superintendent; Mrs.
Jean Hobart, superintendent of the Pri-
mary union and secretary of the state
Sunday school association, and Harrington
Beard, who assisted in the last parade.
Mr. Beard believes that to make the
celebration success definite object
should be the cause of the parade, that Is
| that the parade should be grand meet
ing to welcome some well-known speaker
| or Sunday school worker.

Farm, Stock and Home thinks that 1t is
useless for farmers to run away from cli-
mate or to try to find a place where there
are no climatic vicissitudes or disasters.
During a late visit to Bahama islands,
where climate is genial, soil rich, rainfall
sufficient frost unknown, and winged in
sects dissipated by ocean breezes, farm
ers were found In the depths Of despond
because a hurricane last summer de-
stroyed their oranges. cocoanuts. bananas
almonds and other products, and seriously
injured their trees. Almost every mar
has some ideal climate In his mind where
| he wants to go and 'settle down. But II
is noticed that they very frequently come
back. 1t Is distance that lends enchant

The Office of Governor Of Mime
sofa.

The u ma has confined It's op-
position to Bob Dunn in his cand1-
dacy for the office Of governor to a
discussion Of his official record. He
has been state officer for eight years,
and it has seemed to us fair pre-
sumption that a review Of his record
in office should furnish competent evil
dence as to his fitness or unf1tness for
continuance in the public service and
promotion to place Of higher rank.
We have been satisfied for some
time that the record was bad, and
when an official investigation de-
veloped such facts as have been
brought out in the public examiners
reports, 1t seemed to us a matter of
duty to present them to the people
| with such comment as the facts justi-
| fed in order that the public might
have an intelligent knowledge of the
| fitness Of the man who is asking for
| the highest office in their gift.
In presenting these facts. we have
taken pains to avoid all personalities
and confine the discussion to official
acts and the official record. We have
not been ignorant Of the objections
which might properly be brought
against the personality of this candi-
date, of those defects which would
make his elevation to the office q
public misfortune. but have hoped
that a knowledge of his official record
would be sufficient and that a discus.
sion Of personal characteristics would
be unnecessary.
Mr.. Dunn. however, has injected
this personal phase Of the matter int
the campaign himself by making al
unprovoked attack upon, a representa-
tive Of this paper on the public street
and indulging in language so foul a
to make 1t unprintable in any decen
newspaper. In this way Mr.. Dunn
has called attention in a very effectiv
| manner to some considerations which
cannot be entirely ignored in this cam
paign. He has emphasized in the pub
lie mind the fact that the office Q
:. governor of Minnesota is high sta
ton; that it calls for that type Of ma

The Northwestern Agriculturist IS pub
fishing a series Of articles on the beef
trust. In recent issue, r. e. Dinltck
arrives at the conclusion that the power
Of the beef trust lies not so much in it's
secret agreements with regard to prices as
In its combinations with railroads. The
key to the situation, according to this
student of the subject, is the control OF
all facilities for the transportation OF trust
beef held by the packers. Inasmuoh as
the railroads are common carriers and are
obliged by law to treat all shippers alike
there would seem to be no insurmountable
difficulty If the government were disposed
to take the matter UP along that line II
the way of compelling the railroads t.
furnish to all shippers like facilities and
equal rates.

Secret of Mormon Power.

In the newly awakened national
consciousness Of the Mormon peril,
the fact Is beginning to dawn that
the strength Of the Mormon people is
In their industrial system. rather than
their religion. Without a business
basis, this queer religious cult would
have dissolved into insignif1cance
long ago. .
1t is this feature that makes the
Mormons a dangerous social and po-
litical factor in our present. day
United States. The Mormon church
is a great commercial and Industrial
power. It's people do not cooperate
In the socialistic sense, but the capt.
tai to conquer new soil from the des-
ert, to start new manufactures, and
to extend their influence in every way,
is supplied by the 1.-THE, or tenth part
of every Mormon's income, SO rigidly
collected With this vast fund the
wilderness and the solitary place have
been made glad, and the desert to
blossom as the rose. Industrially the
Mormon church has done wonders
for the west, but it has all been done
for the ACKNOWLEDGMENT of the Nor
mon hierarchy.
This commercial greatness holds
the people together, and gives them
a. solidarity that def1es all reforming
political influences. The church au-
thorities are ready to throw their in
f1uence to whatever political party or
power can do them the most good.
Not only is Utah in Mormon hands
but they have become great power

trolled by the church, are factors ir

cursion-How They Look at 1t In Rice
County.

A representative Of T h e O. IT n !,
who has travelled thru several counties IN
the western part Of the state, including
Redwood, Lyon, Lac qui Parle, kand1-
yohi and Yellow Medicine, finds a strong
sentiment in those counties in favor OF
Judge Collins for governor. Most OF the
newspapers in those counties are for
Dunn. and are claiming to represent the
people, but there is considerable resent
ment among the voters. In Redwood coun-
ty which is claimed to be solid for Dunn,
people are incensed because they have been
so rraisrepresented. Talking with leading
politicians of the county, it was learned
that at least half the delegates there Will
be for Collins. Lac qui Parle Will be
strong for Collins, and so will Yellow Med
icine and it Is doubtful If there is sin
gle Dunn delegate from Brown county.
The past week has seen many changes IN
men who were inclined to be for Dunn,
and the indications are that Collins will
win out in all this section of the state
with little trouble.
