One would not be apt to infer from
the following, culled from the CHS
holm Tribune, that J. S. Arneson,
who wrote it, and who is "progres-
sive" Sam Gordon's chief aide-de-
camp, is hewing close to the line
drawn by his master:
The so-called progressive" move
ment of the present day is not unlike
similar movements in the past in that
the front of the stage is occupied by
many men who are almost hysterical
in proposing reform for the future,
but whose past record fails to disclose
any such burning solicitude for the
welfare of the people when the power
to do something lay within easy
reach. We believe in giving the pick.

The International Harvester com

ganization to conform with recent in
terpretations of the Sherman law,
and the government will permit the
combine to voluntarily dissolve
without recourse to the courts-if it
complies with the statutes REQUIRE
ments. One of these requirements is
that the trust shall split itself up into
it's four original companies-the Nc
Cormick, Deering, Milwaukee and
Plano. If the government expects
that this will have the desired effect it
will be greatly mistaken. The four
companies will be just as strongly
allied as before the so-called dissolu-
ton, but the trusts business methods

government can no more dissolve a
trust than a cockroach can draw a

Having stolen millions of dollars
from the government, the sugar trust
thieves are now stealing millions more
from the people. In the first instance
they were compelled to disgorge a
portion of the pelf, but the money
which they are extorting from the
people cannot be recovered. To get
even for the 100000 the rascally
robbers returned to the government
they have stolen $40, O0O, 900 from the
people. And yet there is no redress.
Who said that the government is regu-
lating the trusts?

Jim Wilson, the secretary of agri-
culture, certainly acted unwisely in
accepting the honorary Craftsmanship
Of the National Brewers associa-
ton. Even though the "honor" was
thrust upon him, be should have en-
phatically declined to accept it. To
say the least, it does not look we'll for
the man who is expected to enforce the
federal pure food laws to ally himself
with one of the combines which Chief
Chemist Wiley characterizes as 'pub.
lie prisoners" Hence, we do not
blame the Methodists and other re:
ligious denominations of the country
for denouncing in unmeasured terms
this same Jim Wilson. -.

For slashing up his fellowmen an
Austrian living at Hibbing will be de-

proper thing to do. Now there are
alien black hand villains and an

permitted to reside among US and
jeoparaize our lives, yet it is seldom
that one is returned to his native
land. We're a shipload a week of

up and deported? Are the police
afraid of them or what?

Over in Wisconsin the 500 railroad
company is operating a gigantic
stump pulling machine which is clear
ing land with remarkable rapidity at
a cost not to exceed $40 per acre.
The machine weighs 100000 pounds
and cost S37, 900. It would not be a
bad idea for Minnesota to obtain one
of these machines and clear the stump
lands in the denuded timber sections
of the northern part of the state. The
machine would pay for itself in a
comparatively short time by the num-
Der of settlers it would be instru-
mental in bringing in.

The Daily Eagle, published at Red
Wing by N. P. Olson, is one of the
neatest productions we have seen in a
long while. Editorially and typo
graphically it greatly outdistances
many a daily published in the state
and it's advertising patronage gives it
a prosperous appearance. The paper
is seven-column quarto and it was
launched about month ago. If
there is anyone capable of getting out
a good paper it is Brother Olson, and
the U i o wishes him every success
in his new venture.

The POTATO Market.

The sharp decline in prices within
the past few days has caused much
lighter receipts at the warehouses,
growers apparently holding back in
hopes that better tone may prevail.

no indication of a raise in price-they
expect, rather, to see decline from
the prevailing quotations. According
to the newspapers there are big crops

About so cars of potatoes have been

have gone from here this season. The
latter figure beats all records, taking
