A peculiar action has been brought
by Fred Hawkins of Excelsior against
the Lauritzen Malt company of Min
neapolis, and the damages asked az
gregate S26,026. In the summer of
1910 Hawkins was convicted of selling
Intoxicating liquor in "dry" town
-Excelsior-and served term in the
workhouse for the offense. He now
claims that this liquor, known as
"malt," was guaranteed by the
nauritzen company to be non-intoxi-
eating. The prime question involved
is whether the guarantee makes the
company liable in case of the convic-
ton of one of the company's GUS
toners. It seems to US that it should.

While the Union does not believe
it possible to secure an equitable re-
apportionment even if an extra ses-
sion of the legislature should be con-
vened, we do believe that at the next
regular; session of the legislature a re-
apportionment, fair to every section
OF the state can be had. In this con-
nection the political editor of the St.
Paul Dispatch remarks:
1.-THE leaders in both parties are
puzzled over the attitude to be taken
on reapportionment. It is highly
likely both parties will go on record
as favoring a reapportionment, but
leave the kind of a reapportionment
strictly alone.'
There is only one way to reappor-
ton the state and that is on the basis
of population as provided by section
2, article 4 of the constitution. No
political party can afford to ignore
and disregard the fundamental law of
the state. .~.. -

Sundays Storm,

Press dispatches convey the news
that many people lost their lives in
Sundays storm which ragged through
out the middle west and that damage
to buildings, farms and shipping ag-
gregated couple of million dollars.
Over dozen persons were killed in
Wisconsin towns near the Illinois
border, the fatalities all occurring in
the wreckage of buildings demolished
by q tornado-like wind. The storm
cut swath about quarter of mile
wide over twenty miles of Wisconsin,
almost sweeping that strip clean OF
all buildings. Three deaths are re-
ported from Chicago, one from Grand
Forks, N. D., and one from Rush
City, MINI. Although the storm ex-
tended over many states Wisconsin
appears to have suffered the most.

by the Chinese government with an
ambassadOrial portfolio to the United
States, to 60 over TO the revolution
aries. 1t was this ambassadorship,
however, that probably decided him
to take such step. Being one of the
most Intelligent men of the Flowery
Kingdom WI naturally learned all
he could about our form of govern
ment and, upon comparing it with
that of his own country, came to the
conclusion that the Chinese system
was all wrong. Hence, believing that
his country would be benefited by a
republican form of government, he
joined the revolutionaries. And,
from the present. outlook, the revolu-
tionaries will win the day and the

In an interview with reference to the
proposed candidacy of ex-President
Northrop for congressman-at-large,
ex-Judge L. W. Collins is quoted as
saying:
"It strikes me very favorably. 1t
is first rate idea if the politicians
can only be led to see it. That is the
only trouble. I should like to see
such an honor given to a man like
DR.. Northrop."
1t never occurred to the little politi-

ardent and influential supporters, AL

favorable mention for the position.

Some time in the future it may be
deemed advisable to limit the repre-.
sentation in the state legislature of
counties in which large cities are To-
Gated, but at present there is no
necessity for imposing any limitation
whatever on any county's representa-.
ton in that body. The "seven sena.
tors" bill ought to be overwhelmingly
defeated at the polls. The motives
that prompted the enactment and sub.
mission of such measure we're to
delay just reapportionment of the

Increase the Creamery OUTPUT

The Cambridge Independent-Press
calls attention to the fact that in 1908
the seven creameries in Isanti county
paid the farmers for butterfat $685.
345.l3, in 1909 1924, O68.97 and in 1910
$3.50, 3.32. The Independent-Pres is
right when it says the above is rather
a poor showing for Isanti county.
One creamery in Milaca alone pays
out as much as all the creameries of
Isanti county. While potatoes is the
staple crop of Isarti county, and
generally a good paying crop, the
lndependent-Press wisely advises the
farmers of Isanti to increase the
creamery output.

OUR CREAMERIES
During Year 1910 $3o3,5S2.So Was
Paid the Farmers of lille Laos
County for Butterfat.
This Does Not Include the Glendorado
Creamery, Which is Located
on the County Line.

The creamery industry is in it's in
fancy in Mile Laos county. Within
two or three years, when the north
end of the county is more thickly
settled, it is safe to assume that the
output will be more than double what
it was for 1910. The figures given be-
low are furnished by the state dairy
department and do not include the
output of the Glendorado creamery,
which is located just across the line
in Benton county, the major share of
whose patrons are residents of Mile
Laos county. The figures for 1911
will show large increase over those
OF 1910; will probably exceed S4OO, 900.
A decade hence, when the agricultural
resources of the county are more fully
developed, Mile Laos will rank as
one of the banner creamery counties
OF the state. The figures show
gratifying increase each year since
1908.

Let's Adopt the Amendment First
r. G. Dunn is entirely right when
he protests against too far-reaching
attempts in building of roads under
the Elwell act on the ground that the
property assessment feature of this
law is likely to arouse vigorous op-
position to it by many of those taxed,
which opposition is likely to express
itself against the adoption of the one
mill road tax amendment in the next
general election. Wisdom suggests
that every effort should be conferred
at this time upon ratification of this
benefcent amendment, because after
all no comprehensive Improvement of
roads will be possible until there is
money in the state road and bridge
fund for carrying out the provisions
OF the road laws, and the way where
by to secure this money has been pre-
pared by Mr.. Dunn, and now is the
time for every advocate of good roads
to sustain him in his efforts. -Roseau
