Pointed Questions.

AS the West Union Record is a
democratic newspaper, the Tele-
gram gracefully and graciously
yields to the Exponent to answer
several pointed and pertinent ques-
tons in the following editorial taken
from the West Union newspaper:
AS far back as two months ago
there were strong indications that
the Democratic machinists in this
state were getting ready to drop
Harmon and champion the candi-
dacy of Champ Clark; and develop
ments OF the last few weeks prove
conclusively those omens or signs
were not at all misleading. We find
today that practically all Of the men
at the head of the Democratnc or
ganization and the satellites and
minions of these men are clamorinS
for the nomination OF Champ Clark
There is not a machine Democratic
newspaper in the state that Is not
boosting Clark. And Just few
days ago word came from the
Clark headquarters at Washington
that John Cornwell was appointed
director or manager of the cam
paign to be waged in West Virginia
for a Clark delegation to the Bal
timore convention.
What better or more convincing
evidence would an intelligent man
want that the reactionary forces are
working for the nomination OF
Champ Clark?
1t is claimed by many good DEM
ocrats that Champ Clark is pro-
gressive and thoroughly in sympathy
with the principles for which the
Bryan Democrats are lighting. II
he is, why is it that he is accept
able to the unprogressive element
Of the Democratic party and to Wall
street? If Champ Clark is a pro-
gressive why are such men as Clar-
ence Watson, Bill Chiffon, Joe Chill
ton, Bill MaGCorkle, owen McKtn'
ney and John Cornwell planning to
send a Clark delegation to the ma
tional convention? Do you think
that those men do not know their
man? do you think they are mis-
taken in him?
II Champ Clark is a progressive
why is he being supported by the
Harmon forces in those states where
there is not enough Harmon senti-
meut to justify fight for Harmon
delegation? Why did the Harmon
men unite with the Clark men in
oklahoma, Kansas, Wisconsin and
Illinois? Why are the Clark
leaders going to throw their sup
port to Harmon in the preferential
primary to be held in Ohio?
II Champ Clark is progressive
why did he appoint for manager OF
his national campaign Fred T. Du-

+ champ cara Il running Is i
progressive candidate why does he
not As an honest, sincere man make
some unequivocal declaration to that
ettect, and thereby disillusion those
men who are supporting him as a re-
dictionary or ultraconservatiye? In
Justice to both the reactionaries and
the progresslyes he should let the
country know his position on all
the vital issues of the hour. At
present. It seems that he is trying to
run with the hare and hold with the
hounds.

Green Forest, Ark. Instead of a massive rock pile where infringers up- on the law and order of Green Forest make little ones out of big ones" con- victed offenders pay their fines by at- tending church on Sunday mornings. For this sacrifice of their privilege of swinging hammer for ten hours day they receive credit of S2 50 a sermon.
 Religion is administered in allopathic doses, for the ministers of Green Fora est are mainly of the "old school.
 This unique innovation was born in the mind of Mayor A. L. Kinney, the man who ''put Green Forest on the map" Mayor Kinney, long before he was honored with the control of mu- nicipal affairs, was an ardent advocate of the theory, justice should be tenn pered with mercy.
 $2.50 FOR EACH SERMON.
 An offender who agrees to go to church need pay no fine in Green Forest if he is convicted in Mayor Kinney's court. Every time he at tends church S2.50 is marked off the original assessment against him.
 The plan has been remarkably sue cessful. Every man who has agreed to pay his fine by attending church has become a constant church-goer after serving out the entire assessment by worship Not one has broken his pro- mise to attend church regularly, and not one has been before his Honor since he was sentenced.
 In addition, the Mayors system has caused several other offenders to "brace up' or reform. They have not shown desire as yet to face the pull pit, but their conduct is now near the 100 mark, whereas it formerly regis tered about 25.
 WIPES OUT LAWBREAKING.
 The Mayors system virtually has wiped out the lawbreaking element of Green Forest, and, although it always has been a morally good town, it has improved remarkably under Mayor Kinney's administration.
 It has been argued by some that S2. 50 is too great an allowance from a mans fine for attending church. May or Kinney, however, believes it is just on the grounds that if man cannot be converted with four sermons, repre- senting $10, the Mayors minimum fine, Green Forest needs new ministers.
 Green Forest is in Carroll county, on the Missouri & North Arkansas Railway.

In recent Sunday issue of the St. Louis Republic appeared the following story of Mayor Kinney of Green Forest with the accompanying photograph and illustrations. The article was ''inspIr- ed' by the publication in The Tribune of our Mayors manner in dealing with some offenders. The facts in the case were not regarded by the writer as matters of as much importance as the novel idea of Judge Kinney, hence he bent the story according to his notion in order to illustrate1 the plan. Mir. Kinney was as much surprised as any body at the "embellshment" of the article The story is nevertheless a very readable one and portrays a positive innovation in the manner of dealing with petty law breakers, which has brought distinction if not fame to the chief magistrate of this coming city. This along with the many other progressive ideas of Judge Kinney is expected by his friends to add much popularity to his candidacy for the off, flee of County and Probate Judge, he having recently been nominated by the Republican County Convention for that office.

TO GERMANY FOR {:
TECHNICAL WISDOM

That the American people are es-
ipecially indebted to Germany for the
origin Of some of their most valuable
educational ideals, was the statement
made by DIR. w. q. Bek Of the uni
'versity at the meeting of the Fort
nightly club last night. He held that
The German contributions had been
greatest in such callings as demanded
thorough technical training.
The speakers subject wal "The
Contributions Of the Germans to
American Culture" Among other
Ntatements that he made was that ev-
cry foreigner was Judged according to
mis- willingness to adjust himself to
prevailing conditions and his ability
to influence the nation Of which he
became a part permanently and fav-
orably.
He cited statistics to show that the
German element in this country in
1900 numbered 100000 the Eng
fish 10000, 900 and the Scotch and
irish 5000, 900. Reference was made
to the contributions of Germany to
Che progress Of our country in the
arts, in the field Of education, in tech
meal knowledge, In commerce and in
dustry and in .statesmanship. in all
Of which the speaker claimed the
Teutonic race had taken an important
part.

These meetings are held on the sec

association has found it convenient to
the members to have them at the noon
hour. The credit men are trying to
fill the role of an educational factor
to the customers of the firms with
which they arc connected. They are
endeavoring to impress on their Gus
Toners that a better condition Of the
firm they deal with means a better
condition for them and the better
their condition the better risk were
they for the house to carry as a credt-
tor.
With this in view a card was recent
ly sent out by the association to the
retailers in their territories. It was
on the matter Of fire prevention, i'm
pressing the fact that it was much
better to take strong precautions
against fire than to depend on the col
lection Of the insurance.

ALMA ANDERSON
FINALLY LOCATED
Now Mrs. E. C.. Barnes of
Fargo, However-Inher-
it's a Fortune.

AS a result of the investigation OF
the consulate of Norway. located at
st. Paul. the identity of Miss Alma
Anderson, who, it was thought. re-
sided in this city, has been determin-
ed. She is now Mrs. c. E. Barnes,
however. and resides at 624 Elm
street, Fargo, where she vas located
by Chief of Police Keefe of that city.
Mrs. Barnes is sole heir of a legacy,
recently left by a relative in Norway.
1t will be remembered that some
time agO h consulate ~endeavored to
locate n Bernhard Edward Ander-
son. Il Norwegian, who was supposed
to be living in Fargo, or to have dis
appeared from Fargo some years ago.
He was said to have been married and
left two children, one of whom was
Miss Alma Anderson. The object was
to deliver to him or his children the
legacy. which was left them. 1t was
first reported that Miss Anderson re-
sided in this city, but a thorough in
vestigation failed to reveal the fact.
When the assistance of the Fargo
chief of police was sought, he i'm
mediately set to work on the case, and
finally succeeded in locating the right
full heir. Mrs. Barnes father disap-
peared many years ago, and is believ-
ed to be dead. Her only brother died
Nov. 90. four years ago. and there
fore she is the only surviving member
Of the family.
The consulate is now in communi.
cation with Mrs. Barnes. and it is
probable that the sum Of money left
to her in the old country will be
turned over to her within a short
time.
