Graphophones were used to help the
stenographers during a recent govern
ment inquiry in Chicago when the in.
vestigators had received orders to
forward to Washington a transcript OF
the testimony at the earliest possible
moment. The stenographers took their
notes in the ordinary way, and read
them to a graphophone. AS fast "a
a cylinder was full, the machine was
turned over to a typewriter, who set
II to repeating what the stenographer
had spoken, and transcribed it on
paper. Within 30 minutes after the
last witness had ceased speaking the
record of the hearing was about com
pleted, ready to be sent to the national
capital.

Hostess Trade Union.

What is wanted is a hostess trade
union, a powerful combination of So
ciety women pledged to maintain their
own selfrespect, and to extinguish
socially any man guilty Of the slight
est lapse Of the courtesy which every
woman has every right to expect The
drawback to the formation Of such a
society lies in the fact that unfortu-
nately being respected neither by men
nor by each other most women do not
respect themselves either-Ladies'

SHOULD ADVERTISE MINNESOTA.

The Free Press is in receipt OF the
following communication from a gentle
man who has had much to do with
Mankato's upbuilding and the sugges-
tions made by him are entitled to the
consideration and action of the Com
mercial club:
Il would like to say word through
your valuable paper in the interest
of our community. l spent two years
on the Pacific coast and could not
help but notice the amount of adver-
tising matter that was sent out brag-
ging up a country that is not to be
compared with this in beauty or
fertility. Climate is all they have.
Now, 1 wish people would write more
and you would print more, which would
enlighten the people as to the beauties
and benefits of living in and near
Mankato.
Young men have left us and we
feel like the old people in Vermont
whose young men have forsaken that
state for other parts of the United
States. We should pay more attention
to advertising this state, this section
and Mankato. We have the best cOun-
try on the earth. We should not
hesitate to let the fact be made
known.
Il saw a man the other day who is
soon to 90 to california. He wanted
nv name so he could send me some
reading matter I asked him if it was
to advertise that country. He said
YES. Then I asked him if it would
not be better for him to take from
here some advertising matter. also
explained to him what I thought about
advertising. He replied that he never
had thought of it in that way and
would send none here. l would like
to hear from others on this sub
ject."
The Commercial clubs and business
organizations of Minnesota should dc
all they can to advertise the, almost
limitless resources of Minnesota. A
combined effort should be made to in
duce people to settle in Minnesota
This is a rich state and can furnish
homes for million of people. There is
room for thousands right here in

ICREDIT CURRENCY ABROAD.

Scotland has a credit currency is
sued by the banks that eNpends and
contracts twice "a year at the rate OF
$l.22 per capita, or $5,50O,OOO.
The same ratio, says Commercial
West, would give the United States
about $lOOOOO,OOO of credit currency;
but we have not one cent of credit
currency, though we need it more
than any other country in the world.
France has a credit currency issued
by the Bank of France, which is con-
stantly expanding and contracting
throughout the year at the rate of
$l.73 per capita, or $67,6OO,OOo.
The same ratio would give the Unit
ed States $l5O,O0G,U6G of credit cur
rency; but we have not one cent of
credit currency, though we need it
more than any other country in the
world.
Germany has a credit currency which
expands and contracts four times ev-
cry year at the rate of $2.l2 per capi-
ia, or $l25,OOO,0O0.
The same ratio would give us
$lSO,OOO,0OO of credit currency; but
we have not a cent of credit cur
rency, though we need it more than
any other country in the world.
Canada has credit currency is
sued by the banks that expand and
contracts at the rate of 1929 per cap
ita every fall, or $25,0OO,O00.
The same ratio would give the
United States $2SO,OOO,OOO of credit
currency; but we have not single
cent of credit currency, though we
need it more than any country in the
world.
The above important facts have
been emphasized in a recent address
by Congressman Fowler. They point
the way to needed legislation. 1t Is
for the people of this country to act
through congress.

WANTS THE HANGING STOPPED

The Kennedy Star does not want
the Beltrami county murderers hang
ed. In recent issue it offers let
ter form addressed to the governor
praying that the executions be stay
ed and the men sent to prison for
life labor. 1t asks that all who agree
with it sign the form and mail it to
the editor who will present the let
ters to the governor. This is the let
ter which The Star offers for sigma
lures:
To His Excellency, Governor John
A. Johnson. Do not hang the
murderers. For humanity's sake,
don't. For Christianity sake, don't.
For the sake of justice, policy
and reason, don't. True, they have in
jured society more than they can ever
repay. They have stained their souls
blacker than they can ever cleanse.
But let them repay what they can;
let them cleanse what they can. A
whole life-term of labor for the So
ciety they have outraged is something
in the way toward such payment; the
gallows is nothing save futile retalia-
tion. The gradual reconsideration and
contrition for crime is something in
the way of such cleansing; the stern,
legal gallows-shlft of the ime-dark-
ened soul is nothing save eternal woe.
Give the wretches just this one chance.
Don't send their confused souls blind
and stunned against the solemn por-
tails of eternity, for that is a fearful
responsibility and belongs rightfully
to Him who is author of life and rul-
| er of eternity. Give them tool and
let them begin their life-lasting service
for restitution to mankind and saliva
ion to themselves
That certainly is pathetic ap-
peal, but it is not likely to have
any effect on the pardon board which
must authorize the cummuting of the
sentences to life Imprisonment. The

HOW MONEY TALKS.

Money was talking when John C..
Spooner, former senator from Wis
consin, delivered his vitrolic speech at
the National Founders association ban
quet in New York few evenings
since. Mr.. Spooner, who is a man of
mquesionable ability always did have
the taint of the corporation and the
order manifested itself on several oc-
casions while he was a member of the
senate. However, he did pretend to be
a friend of President Roosevelt, and
it is known that he was called in
more than once to consult with Mr..
Roosevelt on questions of moment. He
was representing the people then, but
now he is the paid emissary of Harri-
man and his kind and we must ex-
pect that his measure of the presi-
dent will be of a somewhat order
than formerly. Mr.. Spooner was very
severe in his criticism of President
Roosevelt, and notwithstanding his con-
nection with the corporations, his ut
terances astonished the men who
were gathered at the banquet board.
They were so violen that they revoked
considerable comment and in spite of
the Injunction imposed upon the
banuuets to maintain secrecy his re-
marks reached the ears of the news
paper men, who had shortly before
left the dining hall.
The report of this part OF the pro-
ceedings goes on to say:
The speech of the evening had been
made by George w. Ross of Toronto
Can, member of the Dominion parlia-
ment, who had declared that England
lis republic with a hereditary presi-
dent while the United States is a
limited monarchy with an elected king.
At the conclusion of Mr.. Ross speech
ex- Senator Spooner arose quietly from
his seat and began:
"Have all the newspaper men .gone?'

product of the American farmer, will
add enormously to the profits of cot
ton fabric production which is now
valued at over half billion dollars
year. At anything like the present
prices for linen, the mills operating
under the Nudge process can earn
enormous profits.
The Nudge method does not sacrifice
the seed crop. The entire plant as it
comes from the field is put into the
mechanical apparatus and the seed
separated before the straw is crushed.
The Oxford Mills will handle the seed
and straw crop or the straw only, as
may suit the convenience of the farm
er. The value of the seed crop alone
is $l9,500,000 annually. This will of
course be greatly increased when there
is a market for the straw.

The Outcome of an Assault Case at

The damage case of Abeman VS..
Richard Jones which has occupied near
Iy three days in its trial at Fairmont,
closed about four o'clock Monday aft
ernoon. The court directed the jury
to return a verdict for the plain
tiff but allowed them to fix the
amount of damages. The jury re-
Turned a verdict soon after five o'clock
allowing the plaintiff damages in the
sum of $3.50. The case grew out of
quarrel which the parties had at Tru-
man over the possession of a key to
a building in that town. The evidence
showed that Jones struck Ableman
with a club, knocked him down and
pounded him as he lay upon the
ground: that he was badly bruised
about the head, face and neck, where
bv he was made sick in bed. Jones
swore he struck the plaintiff only
with his bare hand.
