~sFfW men of the World, who
IlKOM Y has been sojourning in
Southern California for
%NlA# Tslwr several weeks in the hope
S2lLalD of benefting the health
of Mrs. Root, agreeably surprised and
honored the neighbors of Fremont
camp and visitors by his presence
Thursday night The appearance of
the Sovereign Commander in the hall
was the signal for a demonstration
such as has not been seen in Fremont
camp for a long time-a deserved trib-
ute TO the founder OF all Woodcraft,
one whom Woodmen everywhere hold
in the highest esteem, not alone for the
magnificent work he has accomplished
for the order. but for his sterling quail
ties as a man among men. When
called upon to address the assembled
neighbors, Sovereign Root took as his
subject, 1.-The origin of Woodmen Or
ders," and delivered an address that
was masterful in its scope, replete with
sound logic, humor and pathos. The
address brought forth pronounced and
loug continued applause.
The Sovereign Commander will leave
in q week or ten days for his home in
Omaha, Neb.. the headquarters of the
Sovereign jurisdiction, bearing with
him the fraternal regard of the neigh
bors Of the Pacific coast, who trust
that both he and his estimable wife
may long continue in the enjoyment of
health and the good things of this
earth.
one of the largest and most repre-
sentative gatherings of Woodmen as
sembled in La Fiesta camp Monday
might to see the "model" initiation put
On by past officers of the camp. Each
officer was selected for his special fit
Nne5s for his station and gave ample
priJof of the wisdom of the choice. Full
preparation had previously been made
so that the smoothness that should
characterize such proceedings was car
ried out from beginning to end. The
officers taking part were: Charles M.
Hoff past consul commander; John II.
Foley, consul commander; Jacob Good,
adviser lieutenant; c. M. Stamm, bank
er; Frank Bagley, escort. At the con-
clusion of the initiation large num-
ber Of neighbors, many of whom were
visitors, were called upon for remarks,
and all united in words of praise for
both the officers and the excellent team
~ the camp. The principal address
was made by Neighbor Foley. clerk of
the camp, whose remarks were fra
ternal in character and met with the
heariiest approval of all present.
EfThursday evening, April 2S, David

things he has helped accomplish, we
respect and admire him for himself
alone, for his character and for his
worth. Down deep in the heart of
every human being, you will find
some element of hero worship that
admires courage in man or woman.
Sometimes this hero worship mani
tests itelf in admiration of the
courage Of the soldier who risks his
life upon the field of battle, some
time for the courage of one who
saves lives in some disaster. These
are examples of courage that call
for the exercise Of physical strength
and physical endurance, and they
are worthy of admiration. But
higher and grander and nobler than
that kind of courage is N oral cour-
age. the courage of ones convic-
tions, the courage to dare to do the
right and to fight for the right, re-
CARELESS of consequences, of loss of
position or loss of business. And
that is the kind of courage that Vic

The enthusiasm for county option

noted found expression last Thurs
day night in a remarkable gather

than 600 people gathered from all
parts of the county. The affair
was in the nature Of a reception in
honor of Victor E. Lawson, editor
of the Willmar Tribune. his friends
wishing to show their loyalty to
him and also to express their ap-
probation of his many years OF
work for temperance and reform
generally.
The reception was planned and
carried out by a committee consist.

but a little chap when Vic Lawson
first began his fight for temperance
and reform here in Willmar and
Kandiyohi County. From that day
to this he has been in the van guard
fighting for the right. sometimes
suffering defeat. but generally scor-
ing victory after victory, until to-
day the saloon has been forever BAN
ished from Kandiyohi County, ex-
cept in one little unprogressive cor
ner where two Of those institutions
still flourish in iniquity. But. my
friends. their days are numbered.
And if we fight as loyalty in the fu-
ture as we have in the past, it will
not be many years before, Kandiyo-
hi County can proudly say that
there is not a single stain of the IL
censed saloon within it's borders.
In these results that have been &C.
complished our guest of the even
ing has taken his part nobly and
we'll.
In the last election Mr.. Lawson
scored notable victories, which. per-
haps some have overlooked. His
we'll known attitude on public and
moral questions forced his opponent
in order to be elected to take a
stand in favor Of principles far in
advance of his party and still farth-
er in advance of the principles of
some of his most ardent supporters.
And some of those supporters felt
themselves obliged to advocate NOR
al principles which previous thereto
they had always opposed. When
you can arose public sentiment to
a point where men dare not let it
be known that they are in favor Of
the wrong and dare not fight for
the wrong, you have taken step
in advance that means ultimate vic.

THE HERPES COMES OUT
Frequently Shows Itself in the Same
Place Every Winter

The herpes very frequently shows
itself only in the winter time and in
identically the same spot every year
When 1t comes out a little poslaln
should be at once applied, and this
annoying skin affection will quickly
vanish. Poslam is the new skin REM
edy which has cured thousands OF the
worst cases of eczema and eradicated
facial and other disfgurements Of
years standing. The terrible itching
attending eczema is stopped with the
first application, giving proof of its
curative properties at the very out
set.
In less serious skin affections such
as pimples, rash, herpes, blackheads,
acne, BARRIERS itch, ETC., results show
after an overnight application only
small quantity being required to
effect a cure. Those who use pos
lam for these minor skin troubles
should Immediately secure one of the
special 50-cent packages recently
adopted to meet such needs. Both
the so cent package and the regular
81 jar may be obtained at w. l.. Co
kay's and other leading drug stores.
Samples for experimental purposes
may be had free of charge by writing

TO PROTECT SEAL HERD
House May Be Asked for Closed
Season of Ten Years.

Washington, Feb. 2S-After a con-
ference with DR.. w. 7. Hornaday, d.
rector of the New York Zoo the Sen
ate committee on conservation of ma
tional resources of which Senator
Dixon, of Montana, is chairman, de
cided to represent to the department
of commerce and labor the undesir-
ability of renewing the present lease
for the slaughter of seals in Alaskan
waters, which expires next April.
According to Doctor Hornaday, the
seal herd has been reduced from
100000 to $4,000 within a compare
lively brief period, and he expressed
the opinion that renewal of the
lease would amount to the practical
determination of the herd. He
recommended a closed season of ten
years.
