A pretty home wedding was solem-
nized Wednesdayeeve at o'clock
at the home of the brides parents,
Mr.. and Mrs. E. J. Rauner, 9l8 J
avenue, when Miss Mabelle Eugene
Rauner became the bride of William
Wallace Harvey. The ceremony was
performed by Rev. L. K. Crimes.
pastor of the Hammond Avenue
Presbyterian church. The ring SER
vice was used. The bride was attired
in blue travelling suit and carried
white roses. She was attended by
her sister: Miss Edith Rauner. The
groom was attended by his brother.
W. L. Harvey.
The Rauner home was elaboratelv
decorated in autumn leaves and

mony a buffet luncheon was served
to the immediate relatives and
friends of the bridal couple
Mr.. and Mrs. Harvey left on the

Having satisfied itself by obtaining
a mass of evidence from scores of
witnesses that presidential campaign
funds of the past have been largely
contributed by the trusts, what legis-
lation can the senate Investigating
committee frame that will in the
future absolutely prevent a recur-
renee of such procedure? That is a
question easily answered. The franz
ing of a law which would have such
effect is impossible. Trusts which
felt disposed to contribute to cam
paign fund would find way of 'evad-
ing the most stringent law, the same
as they have the Sherman antitrust
law. Hence the investigation car
ried on by the senate committee will
avail nothing. 1t is a big farce
which is costing the country thou
sands of dollars. .-

Can He File as a Republican?

1t appears that Mr.. John P. Asp
of Borgholm, who has filed by petit
tion for Sheriff, designated himself
upon said petition as a'republican.
Through his attorney, Sheriff ishock
ley has made application to the dis
,trict judge to have. Mr.YAsp's name
removed from the, ballot, as he,
Shockley, is the duly nominated re-
publican candidate for sheriff. and an
independent candidate cannot appro-
pirate the party name. It may seem
hard on Mr.. Asp but there are sew
eral supreme court decisions that
sustain Mr.: Shockley's contehtion.5

Mrs. Sinclair Entertains.

Mrs. Sinclair entertained at a 6
O'Clock dinner on Tuesday evening
in honor Of her sister, Miss Margaret
Gaines, who expects to spend the
coming winter at her old home in
Missouri. Miss Gaines having been
for many years teacher, the party
was composed mainly of those SINH

cational ''shop.' A fine time is
reported however, and a repast

Either Senator Elwell made some
misleading statements with reference
to the operation of the so-called Ell
we'll law at the Todd county fair or
he has been misQuoted by the local
papers. It is absurd to assert that
the state can donate Sc. 900 per
year under the present law for the
construction of roads, and it is
equally absurd to claim that. if the
one-mill amendment is adopted the
state can appropriate S2S, 900, 900
annually for roads. Under the pres
ent law the state can appropriate
approximately 1926, 600, and if the
one-mill amendment is adopted and
favorably acted upon by the legisla-
ture about 81, 800, 900 will be availa-
BILE for the: year 1914 and annually

Railway and Wagon Road Developm.nt.

NaiiWaY ana WAGON Road DEVELOPMENT.
One of the best paragraphs in Gov
ernor Eberhart's s proclamation calling
the second Minnesota Conservation
and Agricultural Development con-
gress at Minneapolis on November l9.
70. q and %, is that devoted to rail
way and wagon road development.
which is as follows:
THE great stretches of territorv
within our boundaries demand the
rapid extension of railway facilities.
Lands should not be kept back from
development, or farmers placed under
the burden of inadequate transpor-
tatlon facilities. The cost of wagon.
haul will always be excessive in COM
parlson with the cost of rail trans.
portation, and every mile of new
branch line is a very valuable asset
to the farmer and his community
This is question of serious impor--
tance, and the thought of the state
may we'll be directed toward the
ways and means of securing a more.
rapid railway expansion, and of OBJ
tanning, 10y cooperating with the
railways within our borders. the
maximum DEVELOPMENT of transpor-
tatlon and "a perfect adjustments of
rail service to the. needs of the
farming and business elements. The
problem of roads interlocks with the
problem of steam transportation, and.
may hardly be regarded as apart from.
it. The cost of transportation from.
the farm to the railroad can only be.
reduced by more railroad lines and
more good roads leading from the.
farms to the railways The improved
highways, existing in the more
highly developed districts, should be-
rapidly extended to the whole state.
and while recent progress toward the
effective development of the road
system is encouraging, it should be
but stimulus to further action.''

The Hon. r. G. Dunn is a man OF
many ideas and many sides, and to
such an extent that it is sometimes
difficult to tell his real position. He
is progressive, with strong con-
servative leanings, in favor of good
roads and state development, with
sectional limitations, and opposed to
corporations with notable exceptions,
yet socially it is always a pleasure
to meet Bob and we are glad that he
again will be member of the Minne-
sofa house of commons Peter
Free Press.
Thanks, Bro. Miller, for your COM
pliments, but we cannot permit to 90
unchallenged one or two of your
statements. If there is anything
that we are free from it is sectional
ism. While we are loyal to northern
Minnesota we have always stood for
fair deal for every section of the
state. We stand for good roads in
every county of the state and for an
equitable distribution of the state
road and bridge fund. We neither
favor nor oppose corporations. Cor
porations have rights that should be
respected, and so have the epeo-
pie. We believe in representative
form of government and that repre-
sentatives Of the people should be
obedient to their Wishes. If to be
classed as a progressive we must
favor every impracticable ism advo-
cated~by visionary demagogues we
are not a progressive. But if it is
progressive to stand for those things
that make for the upbuilding of the
state, that will make conditions bet
ter for the plain, common people of
the state, then we claim to be a
radical progressive.
