Gov. Eberhart has appointed
Ralph W. Wheelock, political re-
porter for Twin city papers, as his
private secretary. AS Mr.. Whee-
lock is not recognized as a political

Best Fair Ever Held.

1t was our privilege to be present
at the ninth annual street fair held
in Willmar last week and we do not
hesitate in saying that it was one
of the best affairs of the kind ever
held in that enterprising city. AS
far as the agricultural and horti-
cultural exhibits were concerned
we believe they were the best that
have ever been shown there. The
same may also be said of the dis
play in the art exhibit building,
where the ladies and children of
the county had on exhibition pro-
ducts in the domestic and house,
hold lines that were as good as any
exhibited at state fairs. In the
horticultural display there were
many varities of apples and they
were certainly beauties. All the
Willmar tribune., 1909-10-06

fruit made a splendid showing and
we did not see anything at the
state fair that excelled it. We are
especially proud of the fact that
apples grown right here in Atwater
were among those that carried off
first prizes. Martin Olson had on
exhibition three varieties that were
picked in his orchard in the south
part of the village and he was
awarded first premium for two
varieties. They were the Wolf
River and Patton's Greetings.
Among the big features of the
fair were the town and country
civic parade on Friday and the
automobile parade on Saturday,
both Of which were nicely carried
out. High-class free street acts and
other carnival features to amuse
the visitors. One of the pretty
features of the fair was the drilling
by the Willmar Boys Corps Of
Cadets. composed of 48 boys. The
little fellows made very attractive
appearance in their neat uniforms.

This is the way in which the Wis.

tendencies Of the Winona congress-
man:
In Tawney, the System" finds
an ideal servitor. No weight of
authority deters him. No task is
too big for him to tackle. No SER
vice is too slight to engage his at
tention. He is always ION the
job. His specially is knocking
in the head" appropriations for
government Investigations of
System" wrong-doing. He tells
the people this information is of
no practical value to them. Inves-
LEGATIONS are a waste of money.
Besides they "hurt business. The
people "want to know" but the
"System" does not want them to
know, and Tawney is the great
"Hush-h-h." He is Cannon's ex-
pert at the "System's" game of
Keep-it-dark.

There is no temporizing with the
liquor evil in certain portions of
the "Sunny South Alabama forms
perhaps the most notable example.
The law recently enacted in that
state prohibits all newspapers from
publishing liquor advertisements,
also all liquor advertising on bill
boards or other places in the state;
it prohibits the club lockers and
near-beer stands, it holds the own
ers of property, where blind tigers
are run, responsible and their pro-
perty may he condemned; it cuts
out the manufacture Of near-beer
and other so-called temperance
drinks, which are really intoxicat-
ing; it makes it possible to raid
public places suspected of liquor
selling without warrant, forbids
the drinking Of liquor on trains,
makes the refusal of witnesses in
court to give the names of law
breakers contempt Of court, and
provides as penalty for the viola
tion OF the law a minimum impri-
sonment Of six months. Preston

NEW MOVE IN GERMANY.
A temperance campaipn wi

A temperance campaign which
promises to have a marked effect
on the consumption of alcohol in
Germany has been begun by a resolu-
tion adopted at the socialistic con-
vention in Leipsic. The resolution
requires that the members of the
party organization. which numbers
six hundred thousand, shall abstain
from brandy and other high alcoho-
lie beverages and that they shall
try to diminish the consumption of
these drinks by their companions.
Though aimed chiefly at the dis
tillery owning nohlemen, who un-
der the new revenue laws enjoy
special favors in the form of re-
bates of taxes, the measure is sup
ported also on hygienic grounds. 1t
is approved by the independent
press as the most important step
yet taken to check the misuse of
alcoholic drinks in Germany.
Should party discipline prove
sufficient to make the boycott effect.
i've many distillers would have tc
go out of business, as the effect OF
a relatively light reduction in sales
will be the cancellation of thei,
le5ate privileges. - Kansas City

1t has often been said that Min
nesota is governed by the country
editor. This may not be strictly
true, but certainly the Fourth es-
tate" is more numerously repre-
sented there in public place than in
any other commonwealth. The
governor, his private secretary and
executive clerk are country news
paper men; SO are the labor COM
missioner, the executive agent of
the game and fish commission, the
state oil Inspector, the state libra
rian, the secretary and the assistant
secretary of state, the assistant la
Dor commissioners, the state fire
marshal, the deputy public exami-
ner, the secretary of the dairy and
food commission, the assistant clerk
of the supreme court, the secretary
of the board Of control. Both poll
tical parties have recognized the
capability of the country editor for
official position from the earliest
history Of the state, and he has al
ways been an active force in legis-
lative councils and in the minor
places under the national and state
governments.-Late Gov. John A.
johnson in Youths Companion.
