Doll NOW.

Shop early has become Christmas
slogan but it has not yet been enact
ed into law. Itshould be, if such a
law could be made operative, as it
couldn't.
Anyway it should be with penalty
of sixty years Imprisonment for vio-
lation.
Can you think of any good reason
for not shopping early?
Do you recall last Christmas?
What did you say the morning after?
Nov next year I'm going to buy
early and get it all out of the way
long before the rush begins. !"
Have you done it? Why not?
If you can't remember that clerks
and salespeople are bound to be
worked to death from now to the
first Of the year and that by shopping
early you can help them. you can at
least remember that it is better for
you to shop early.
You get the pick of the offerings.
That's something. You get the
best attention and service the store
has. That's more.
Also you have time to look things
over and make deliberate choice.
That's impossible when the rush be-
gins.
Now just for once give the bust
ness men of Redwood Falls sur
prise and do your Christmas shop
ping AT ONCE.
If you do and are sorry for it
afterwards call around and we'll put
you on the Gazette's subscription
list for year gratis. But you
won't be sorry. Neither will the
store keepers and least of all the
clerks who every one admits are en-
titled to some consideration.

gresham. He may mean it this
time and with him and Cyrus North

fight between Governor Eberhart
and Sam Y. Gordon if Eherhart is
to ask for reelection.
The governor said quite recently
that he at present expects to be a
candidate but he at the same time
said he didn't expect to make any
announcement. On the senatorial
side of the situation he was mum,
or about as good as mum. He says
he will not under any circumstances
be candidate against Senator Nell
son. He doesn't say that he knows
the senior senator is going after
another term. He doesn't say he
will ask for the place if Nelson re-
tires.

ed for a third term he said: Il have

BEHIND THE POLITICAL SCENES

Now that the governor has sue
ceeded in planting his strong right
foot squarely upon the extra session
dope there comes a lull in the politi-
cal maelstrom. Not that extra
session" has been hushed to sleep in
all parts Of the state. No indeed,
the north is still after it, being APP
parently of Irish blood and not
knowing when it's licked.
F. A. Whittier. VINO has held a
more or less important position at
Red Wing, has turned his spanking
machine over to other hands and
stepped gracefully down.
Not however until he had been the
recipient of beautiful coat of
spackless whitewash. This was
handed him Dy two members of the
DO ard of control with the third far
from condemning him whole heart
ely. Promptly upon receiving this
immunity bath Mr.. Whittier ducked.
Which naturally raises the query?
Why didn't he get out after being
exonerated by the legislature las
winter?
Which in turn suggests that ma. :
be there was some politics in this
affair after all and not all on the
side of the governor.
There may not be much Of politl-
cal significance in this final DISPOSE
ton of the case but it is a glaring
fact that by his position on this mat
ter the governor has won the perma-
nent support of the club women of
the state. and that's support not
to be sneezed at by the politically
ambitious.

When the strike proved to be a complete

cases Of sabotage had been reported by the
various railroad companies Making lib

Of the companies, which are only too anx-
