PUBLIC SCHOOL IS NOW
1000 VOTES AHEAD
Using Good Tactics IN Holding
Support
OTHER CONTESTANTS
WILL HAVE TO HURRY

The vote this week proves con-
clusively that the Public School
supporters are not saving back
and hiding out all their votes.
While many are being held.
enough are being put in the ballot
box each week TO retain a COM
manding lead. There is some
class to that system. Keeping
in the lead prevents the enthu-
siasm of the children from flag
ging. So long "a the school keeps
in the lead, and prospects look
correspondingly bright and rosy,
the children work most industri-
ously in collecting votes.
With the exception Of the
Public School, only one other on-
testant polled heavy vote. That
was Miss Nettie Roscoe, who re-
ceived 551 votes, which gives her
sixth place. 1t is still nybody's
place, and THE News is not yet
willing to try to pick the winner.
The present standing of the
contestants is as follows:

second reader. The board Of direc-
tors is composed of A. C. Skoog,
president; C. w. Odell, clerk;
O. P. Nelson, treasurer, and Mrs.
C. W. Odell.
The new church is beautiful
structure. 1t is the result of much
earnest work and generous giving
on the part of the members. 1t is
situated on one of the best corner
lots in the city, on the south side
Of the courthouse square. The IN
terror finish is in mission oak, the
walls being tinted in dark gold,
and floors being laid with crimson
carpets. The reading room is in
the church, finished and furnished
like the church. There is a full
basement under the church, and
this will eventually be used for
Sunday school room. The total cost
of the building and lot is $4,000.
The dedication will take place as
soon as the property is free from
any encumbrance, which will most
likely be some time next spring or
summer.

NEW CHURCH OPENS MONDAY

The edifice for the First Church
of Christ Scientist is now complet-
ed, and it will be opened for wor-
ship with snecial services on Mon
day, Nov. FL. by Mr.. Herman s.
Herring, of the board of lecturers
Of the Mother Church in Boston.
Mr.. Herring was formerly a men,
ber of the faculty at the John Hop
kins university.
Like all Christian Science church.
es the Willmar church was founded
on healing. 1t had q rather unus-
ual start in that it was begun en-
tirely by men. Nine men, who,
one after another had found help
in Christian Science, met together
every Sunday to read the lessons
for nearly three years before sim
gle woman became interested.
The church was organized in the
spring of 1903 with ID charter
members. Among these were C
W. Odelt, cashier First National
bank; 0 P. Nelson, retired farmer
and 0. E. Ruble. prominent real
estate owner. The first reader al

to see the party whip welded
against the adoption Of such a law
on the same excuse of party expe-
diency.
Rut however we'll the Republican
politicians tried to dodge the coun-
ty option question. The Tribune de-
sires to emphasize the fact that the
NEXT REPUBLICAN HOUS E
AND SENATE ARE MORALLY
PLEDGED 70 PASS A GOOD
|COUNTY OPTION LAW. If it
does not. it has deceived the people
in a majority of the election dis
>tricts of Minnesota.
Not only the Individual candi-
dates for the legislature but also
most of the candidates on the state
ticket dinned it into the ears of the
voters that county option must
come thru the Republican party.
If this does not constitute a pledge,
we do not know what it means.

LOCAL SOCIETIES OF EQUITY

An attempt is bel ng made to Or
anize number Of local branches
of the American Society of Equity
in Kandiyohi county. Mr.. A. h.
Gratreaks, an organizer from Wis
cousin, has held meetings in num-
ber of the school houses in the
southern part Of the county for the
purpose of explaining the objects
and purposes of this society, and
informs the Tribune that he is soon
ready to begin the organization of
locals thruout the districts he has
visited.
Since the days of the Farmers AL
lance there has been no attempt to
organize the farmers that has met
with the success that has so far
come to the Society of Equity. In
some states it has won wonderful
standing, with thousands of mem
bers. When five or more local so.
cieties have been formed in coun.
ty, a county society may be formed.
These III turn are represented in
state or district societies.
1t may interest the readers of the
Tribune to know something more
about the aims and purposes of the
society of Equity, and the Tribune
knows of no more concise way to dc
this than to publish the objects o1
the Society as published in it's con.

stitution. They are:
1. Tie first and great object of
this society is to obtain profitable
prices for all products of the farm,
garden and orchard.
2. To have built and maintained
granaries, elevators, ware houses
and cold-storage houses on the
farms, in the principal market
cities and in all localities where
necessary, so that farm produce
may be held and controlled for an
advantageous price, instead of pass
ing into the hands of middlemen or
trusts.
8. To obtain equitable rates of
transportation.
4. To secure Legislation in the
interest of agriculture.
5. To open new markets and en-.
large old ones.
6. To secure new seeds, grain,
fruit, vegetables, etc., from home
and from foreign countries, and
distribute them with view of i'm.
proving present crops and giving a
greater diversity.
7.5 To report crops in this. and
foreign countries, SO that farmers
may operate intelligently in plant.

8. To establish institutions OF
earning, so that farmers and thei,

sons and daughters may be educated
in scientific and intensive farming
the best methods Of marketing, and
for the general advancement of
agriculture.
8. To improve our highways.
II. To prevent adulteration OF
food and marketing of same.
IL. To promote social inter.

13. To settle disputes without

The party scorned the idea of divid.
ing the responsibility for such a
law with anyone else, and they
fooled thousands of voters to be-
lieve that the party really stands
for that issue.
Now, if that bill is defeated, it
will be futile to come around two
years from now and lay. the blame
onto the democrats, the prohibs, So
cialists, or any other party. The
republican party wanted the sole
responsibility of passing such a law,
the voters took them at their word
and if they don't make good, the
Republican party is to blanchard

1t will be the policy from now on
of every enemy of county option in
Minnesota to cry that county option
is dead because of the results in the
last campaign. They will whip in
to line all weak-hearted supporters
who are simply looking for the off,
ces and who will begin to be afraid
that after all county option is not
so popular an issue as they thought.

The day of advertising-wh1ch is

bringing that information to them
in the most direct, the quickest and
the most convenient way-by the

One Of the greatest losses to the
causes of good government in Min
nesota in the last campaign was the
defeat of Hon. E. E. Lobeck for
the House in Douglas county. He
lost out by 50 votes. the adverse
majority being rolled up in the city
of Alexandria. Lobeck admittedly
accomplished more for better and
cleaner laws than any other member
in the last House, yet we presume
a lot of innocent temperance people
united with the brewery interests
and office holding bunch in order to
elect a "Republican' who would
be able to accomplish more for
temperance than minority party
man. (O The party label is the
biggest asset of the political cor
