Mr.. DUNN'S APPEARANCE.

Robert c. Dunn will appear before a
Mankato audience on the evening of
Nov. 2. Voters will then be given an
opportunity to see and hear the next
governor of Minnesota. Mr.. Dunn is
not an orator in the sense that we speak
of orators. He does not indulge in flow
cry language, nor is he what is general
ly termed a word painter. He is a
blunt, plain-spoken man, who deals in
facts, and not in glittering generalities.
He talks to the point, leaving out of
his speeches all superfuous words.
There has been great deal said during
the campaign relative to Mr.. Dunn, and
on Wednesday night of next week the
people of Mankato and Blue Earth
county will have most excellent chance
to Judge for themselves whether he is
worthy of their support. That Mr..
Dunn will make favorable impression
there is no doubt. Mr.. Dunn was not
born in the lap of luxury, and during
his career he has been forced to trod
the rough road which all self-made men
before him have travelled. Born in Ire
land, he came to America when boy.
He sought out the new northwest and
here he has carved out a good name for
himself. His success is due entirely to
perseverance and energy, Characteristic
of the hardy stock from which he sprang.
A large audience should greet the repub-
lican candidate for governor on his APP
pearance here.
Congressman F. G. Stevens of the
fourth district will accompany Mr.. Dunn
to Mankato, and will discuss state and
national issues. Mr.. Stevens is bril-
liant speaker, and no one should miss
hearing him.
This will be the last big republican
rally of the campaign in Mankato, ex-
cept that to be held in Mankato Theatre
by Congressman MeCleary on the night
of Nov. 7.

PRAISES THOMAS H0Ds0N.
St. Peter Tribune Speaks Highly OF
Candidate in NicoIiet County.
From Wednesdays Daily.


On the eighth of November, the voters
of the third commissioner district will be
called upon to elect a county commits
sioner.l For that position the name of
Thomas Hodson of Nicollet township is
presented to the voters of the district
for the placer Mr.. Hodson is eminently
fitted for the place, and if elected will
give good service to the taxpayers of
Nicollet county. Mr.. Hodson came to
Nicollet county when boy, in 1860,
settling in Nicollet township. He en-
listed in the Union army in 1862 in Com
pany l, Sixth Regiment, Minnesota Vol
unteers; served in the Indian campaign
with General Sibley in 1923, and in
the Army of the Gulf in l864-5. After
the war he returned to his present home
in Nicollet township, where he has since
lived. He is known as man of in
tegrity and one of the best citizens of
our county. He was appointed mem
Der of the state board of equalization
by Governor Van SAINT, and was recog-
nized as a very Industrious and eff
cient member while on the board. He
has ever taken an interest in public af-
fairs, and particularly in the well be-
ing of the people of our county. No
better or thorough man could be selected
for one of the board of county commits
sioners, and it is our opinion the citizens
of his district will see to it that he is
chosen county commissioner on the
eighth of November-St Peter Tribune

tor of The Free Press: 1 wish to an.
nounce to the public through the col
umns of your worthy paper that the
bridge company constructing bridge

tinuing work all day Sunday, Oct. %.

county, and also to the different Chris
tian societies that this rash act of the
bridge company be Immediately punish
ed as provided by law. The violation of
the Sabbath day by public act of this
nature will remain on the minds of our
young men and women for an age to

to our duty in this matter, and not to
fall into the way of the transgressor.
Hoping that these few words will fall

INCREASE TEACHERS PAY.
Average Is Much Higher Than That OF
Last Year.
From Wednesdays Daily.

There are ninety-eight more men
teachers employed in Minnesota this
year than last, and 1866 more women
instructors, according to reports COM
piled by the state superintendent of
pubic instruction.
The figures also show an increase in
the average wages paid to teachers of
both sexes. Men in independent and
special districts last year averaged
$97.57. This year they averaged $9S.sl
monthly salary. Women in the indie
pendent and special districts averaged
$45.47 last year, and $4S.56 this year.
In the common school districts the
average wages for men have increased
from $45.l6 last year to $45.7l this
year, and the salaries of the women
teachers have increased from 1925 to
$36.27. Of the teachers employed, 4,96l
have had only high-school training, g.

COLD AIR FOR TETANUS.

DR.. w. /. McCrann, South Omaha
physician, has completely cured a case
of tetanus by the cold air treatment
Francis McKeon, a ten-year-old boy, suf-
fered puncture of the foot with a
splinter about an inch long, and
the system soon became impregnated
with tetanus germs. When almost in
the throes of death, being in convuls-
ions, the suffering young patient was
placed in the cold vault of brewery by
the doctor to receive the cold air treat
ment, and subsequently was removed
from the building permanently cured
DIR. McCrann had some difficulty in gain
ing the consent of the young fellows
parents to his removal to the brewery
vault. An hour after being there an
improvement was noted in the patients
condition. The doctor gives his reasons
for the cold air treatment. The ice treat
ment would only occupy a space of fif-
teen to eighteen inches of the skin,
which soon produces a damp, fabby
mass, chilling the oil cups and blocking
the pores, eventually acting as non
conductor and resistant 81 contended
that the cold air, introduced into the
lungs through the air passages, covered
an area of almost l,4OO inches of
mucous membrane lining the air chan
nels, and therefore the solid air, being
the heavier, takes immediate possession
of the air cells and distributes the cold
direct into the circulation, which at once
acts as sedative upon the arachnoid

sheets of brain and spine, relaxing the
tension produced by the ptomaine."
The Free Press is not advised that
this is the first case of tetanus perman-
emily cured by the coldair treatment.
DR.. McCrann makes the claim that it is.
Maybe his word will be disputed by
medical men.
DIR. McCrann's history of the case is
quite interesting. Young McKeon was
placed in the vault on the morning of
Sept. 5. He remained there until be-
tween twelve and one o'clock when he
was removed to his home by his father.
Up to noon of the following day the
boys condition was quite good, but then
a change for the worse occurred. AT
five o'clock the patient was taken again
to the brewery coldstorage vault where
he remained until Sept. Ia. He was
then removed to an outer house close
to the brewery, in case the spasms re-
turned. Up to the present time he has
shown no return of the trouble, is
bright and cheerful relaxed in all parts
of the body and is once more housed
with his parents, permanently cured of
the dreaded tetanus.
Cold air treatment for tetanus is
bound to become popular. 1t will work
a revolution in the medical world. If
this method should be successful in all
cases of tetanus it will prevent great
deal of suffering and loss of life.

Our Christian friend has touched up
on matter that will find ready re.
Spouse from hundreds of people in Blue
Earth county who have deep venera-
ton for the Sabbath day. They hold to
the rule laid down by God, Remember
the Sabbath day to keep it holy" There
is altogether too much dissertation of
the Sabbath, and there should be a
strong agitation by Christian people to
the end that deeper sense of obligation
for its observance permeate the world.
There is too little regard for the Lords
day-the day hallowed by the ruler of
the' universe. Too much labor is per-.
formed on that day; too much sport and
frivolity takes the place of religious OBJ

a very careful inspection the first prize
was awarded to O. G. Mack, the second
to Frank Hanna, and the third to G. L.
Stephens all of the township of Shelby.
The object of Mr.. Brace in the contest
was to demonstrate that Blue Earth
County is in the corn belt, and can be
relied upon for a good corn crop, with
great certainty and regularity. Mr..
Brace feels very grateful to those who
took an interest in his contest and COM
peted for the prizes. If some of the H.

Braces fine collection they would lose
no time in selling their $l25 acre land
and come here and buy just as good
land for from $50 to $75 an acre.-Good

LOS CAMBIOs DEL Ola
EI Petr6leO no es un substitute del
Aceite de Hfgado de BacalaO

Durante Ia presente escasez de
aceite de higado de bacalao, algunos
industriales han hecho grandes es-
fuerzos para popularizar en- provecho
propio el uso de petroleo 6 parafna
como subtancia alimenticia4
Bastante rfdiculo es en- verdad, por
no ca1ifcaflo de otro modo, Ell asegu-
rar que el petroleo puede subStituir al
aceite de hfgado de bAcalao.
La gran reputation de que goza el
aceite de hfgado de bacalao es debido
a sus grandes propiedades nutritivas 6
alimenticias. En- verdad, el aceite de
higado de bacalao no solamente es
I'm alimento, Sino que es el mejor me-
dicamento que Sc conoce en- Medicina
atin no Sc ha podido encontrar en- la
naturaleza otro alimenJo igual, y
anunciar el petroleo como un substi-.
tuto del aceite de hfgado de bacalao,
es atribuir al petroleo 6 parafna pro-
piedadeS que no tiene. El petroleo
carece de la propiedad esencia1 de to-
do alimento, es decir, la de ser asirni-
liable. El petroleo 8 parafna no sola-
mente no es una substantial asimilable,
sino que cuando Sc toma interiormente
es expelido en- su tota1idad por las
evacuaciones intestinales, causando in
digestion, irritacion del estomago y
de los intestinos, enfermedades del
hfgado y del pancreas y con frecuen-
cia diarrea y disenter1a.
La presente escasez de aceite h1gado
de bacalao es un case exceptional que
no durarA mucho tempo, pero ha des-
mostrado va la gran demanda que
constantemente hay en- Ell mundo por
este producto alimenticio. Miles de
personas, jovenes y ancianos, usan
continuamente este aceite y su Sa1ud y
su vida depende de el.
Afortunadamente la mayor parte
del aceite de baca1ao que Sc consume
en- Ell nundo es administrado bajo la
forma de Emulsion de Scot" prepa-
rada por los Sres. Scott & Bovine,
Oufmicos de Nueva York, quienes
debido sus muchos aflos de expe-
riencia en- la materia, vieron venir la
escasez con muchoS meses de anticipa :
ci6n & hicieron grandes acopioS del

pagar precios enormes. ESQ no obs
