THE LOVE BETWEEN MAN
KIND AND ANIMALS.

h1NO AMI ANIMALS
Many instances of the love that
exists between mankind and
dumb animals have been related,
but more touching example
than the love of a great horseman
and a great horse for each other
has seldom been recorded,
This was in evidence daily this
spring at the Memphis race track.
The principals in the tragedy
for it was a tragedy-were Ed
ward F. (FPop") Geers, famous
driver of harness horses, and The
Harvester, 2;@1, champion trot-
ting stallion.
The Harvester had been sold to
C. K. G. Billings, and would no
longer be handled by Pop, "
Geers had taken the horse as a
bad-mannered colt and taught
him to tfot, at the same time
transmitting to the animal the
sweet disposition which has en-
deared Geers to lovers of harness
racing.
After the sale The Harvester
was transferred to the stable Of
Trainer DOC" Tanner, and it is
told how every night Geers would
limp across the irfeld to bid his
old charge good night.
Dick, the pet name given The
Harvester by Geers, never failed
to recognize his old master. To
his trainet's kindly voice he
would answer with a low, csress-
ing Whinny.
One evening Geers went into
the barn and as he passed the

apartments.
How are you tonight, old
boss p said the veteran, as he
walked into the box stall and
placed his hand on the arching
neck of the great stallion.
And there in the quiet of a
golden sunset The Harvester
showed his nose along the old
mans neck and nozzled the
wrinkled cheek.
The champion stallion and the
champion driver stood cheek to
cheek IN silence for several min
utes.
Good night, old boy. said
Pop" as he left, and the groom
who watched, unseen, says Pop"
blew his nose violently as he
limped home through the twi-
light.

ing and false criticism ola candidate
simply because he is holding an of
fee which an editor would like to
see handed to some one else.
For this reason The Gazette well
comes the recent ruling of the State
Supreme court which sets a new
rule for libel.
In the case of Palmerly vs.. Mott
age the court held that the use of
the words: 1T is easy to work the
county commissioners" were libel
Gus per Sc.
This ruling should make editors
careful in editing their papers.
There can be no excuse for libeling
a candidate that would not hold for
libeling a private individual.
An elimination of false criticism
will go long way toward cleaning
up politics in Redwood county and
in other counties.
Under the primary law the press,
and especially the country press, is
the greatest force IN politics.
With this increase of power must
come increased sense of responsible
ity and resolve to honorably discharge
the new duties.
If the editors will take this stand
thew will receive and hold the res
pect and confidence of the people
and retain the power the law has
given them.
But should they prove false or
weak or both so that their columns
unjust criticism and false
statements the public will go else
where for information and the press
will lose the position it now holds.
Worst of all the honest editors will
suffer because of the weakness and
of others since the people
finding part of the press false will
look lightly upon the entire institu-
ton.
1t is for this reason that The Ca
zette pleads for clean politics in the
press and out of the press and feels
sure the vast majority of the voters
If this county and state will indorse
The sentiment that only by clean poll
les can clean officials be elected.

lie you believe in the county be-
lieve also in the fair and don't be
afraid that money invested in this
show will not give you big returns.
1t will.
The greatest advertising medium
Minnesota has is the state fair.
Redwood county's fair can do just
as much for the county as the big
show has done for the state. Don't
you doubt that for minute.
Through the ceaseless effort of the
officers of the association the last
fair was a great success in spite of
the fact that it was pulled off under
discouraging circumstances.
The best and ablest men in the
county are back of this movement
and you cannot afford to be a lagg-
ard.
If you do your part the officers
will do theirs. Of course they'll do
that anyway regardless of what you
do because they are that kind of
men but they need you and your
help and if you come across next
years fair will set a new record and
go far toward putting Redwood
county in the center of the map of
Minnesota.
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1912-12-03

The imminent conflict may change
the map or Europe but there seems
little likelihood that it will perma-
nently change the boundary lines or
effectually put a stop to war.
Nothing else is Of importance.
The optimist believes that human
ity has so far advanced that the old
days Of bitter strife are no longer
necessary. Doubtless civilization was
born in the crucible but now we feel
it has passed to moreglorious med
ium of development so that the man
tie of peace may safely be placed
around it and the fierce heat of early
days abated.

PEACE, PLACE

Cry peace, peace, but there is no
peace"
What avails worlds peace con.
gress if you have no alchemy with
which to change human nature.
Even wise men have said prepare
ton for war is the best guarantee of
peace.
Yet carrying of concealed weapons
is forbidden by law and in the gun
toting sections violent deaths are
numerous.
Is the nature of nation different
from the nature of man?
| All Europe has been preaching
peace and see to what it has lead.
Their preaching has been but the
building of a magazine and their
peace plans have laid the train. At
the first suggestion of trouble all
Europe trembles to the greatest con-
f1ict in the worlds history.
Whatquarrelhaye these Austrians,
Bulgars, Turks, Russians, Germans,
Servians with each other as men?
Not the slightest.
They.do not even know of each
others existence as individuals. They
can have no personal feeling in the
vast fight seemingly at hand
Yet the individuals that make ur
these armies must bear the brunt OF
toll, suffering and death.
Will the emperors and generals
and rulers back of the lines of battle
engage in personal combat?
No, but you common people, in
to the fight for king and country,
"Oh, Liberty. what sinsare commit
ted in thy name"
We shall hardly escape theravages
of war until the spirit OF peace ac.
tually takes possession of the heart
after which time there will be nc
necessity for prating of peace.

REAL CORN BELT
Minnesota

1t seems expedient to rise and re.
mark:
Redwood county is planted square,
ly in the heart of the nations great
est corn belt.
Listen: Seventeen hundred bush
els of excellent corn from forty acres,
says Henry Schmidt and that'sgood.
Yes, but not the best. Tom Whit
tet comes along and swithout boast
ing tells of 1900 bushels from fifty
acres. Great? Certainly, but not
the best.
John Cummings, is reported, re
port not verified, to haveraised 2,100
bushels of as good corn as ever grew
on twenty acres.
All of which proves the statement
made above that Redwood county is
squarely in the heart of the nations
greatest corn belt.
If you doubt it. you people in Illi-
nois, Iowa, Indiana, and Ohio, buy
ticket and come up. You'll be con-
WINGED mighty quickly.

CLEAN POLITICS FOR REDWOOD COUNTY

CLAN POLITICS FUR REDWOOD COUNIl
Practically all men believe in clean
politics.
Its too bad we can't say "all' but
we can't,
There are people who believe in
winning and are not caring much
about how success is won. These
are the people who make for unclean
politics.
Really one should be better salts
fled to lose honorably than to win
by unfair tactics. Frank Hassenstab
took the right position during the
primary campaign when he said
If violation of the corrupt prac-
tice act is necessary to win | prefer
to lose."
Not all men took that stand.
Redwood's history in politics has
been bitter. There have been a
great many hard fights fought here
and wherever the contest is intense
unfair means are likely to be used.
There were many things said and
done during the recent campaign
which were wrong morally and poll
tically. Since election some of these
things have been acknowledged as
wrong and to certain extent set
right. Others have not been righted
and never can be righted.
The Gazette believes in a free press
as it believes in free speech, but it
does not believe in unfair, mislead-

Official Paper Of Redwood County
LET SOMETHING GOOD Be SAID

When over the fair fame of friend or foe
The shadow of disgrace shall tall;
instead
Of words of blame, or proof of so and so,
Let something good be said.
Forget not that no fellow being yet
May fall so low but love may lift his bead
Even the cheek of shame with tears is wet,
If something good be said.
No generous heart may vainlv turn aside
In ways of sympathy; no soul so dead
But may awaken strong and glorified,
If something good be said.
And so 1 charge We. by the thorny crown,
And by the cross on which the Savior
bled,
And by your own souls hope for fairrenown,
Let something good be said.

long for me to discover that we were
interrupting good many battles and
heated political meetings, but IN
every case flag of truce was hoist
ed long enough to send many kind
messages of thanks and appreciation
to Pullman. In every case, when We
had passed on, hostilities were re-
sumed with renewed vigor.
In conclusion, it is needless to add
that Pullman did herself proud upon
this occasion. My chief regret Is
that you were not able to witness In
person the success of your efforts to
extend a little sunshine into the lives
of those who were unable to leave
the home at Port Orchard.
Sincerely thanking you for the

ECHOES OF ENCAMPMENT

man, woman and child. The pro-
grams of entertainment filled all the
time, and were carried out with tai
ent and skill. There was not a dull
moment. The beautiful weather
contributed much to the pleasures
and success of the encampment.
1t was evident to the observer that
the great success of the encampment
was not due to the extraordinary eff
forts or munificence of any one or
two individuals, but rather to the
workers en- masse, and to the patr-
otto spirit and hospitable feeling of
the entire population. There was
manifested by the people a sincere
desire to show honor to the old SOL
diers, and to acknowledge their
grateful appreciation of their serv-
ices, and the priceless results Sc
cured to the country thereby, of
which all are now partakers.
The local w. R. C. has received
letter from Sedgwick Relief Corps
of Spokane, which reads in part as
follows:
Spokane, June IL.
Sedgwick Relief Corps, No 4, by
rising vote, in their session yes
terday expressed their appreciation
of and thanks for the many cour-
tesies and kindnesses received dur
ing their stay in your hospitable
city and desired me to convey the
same to you in a Letter. I desire,
through you, to express to the loyal
royal citizens of Pullman the warm
est praise and gratitude for every
thing received during our stay.
There are no words in any Ian
guage which can express our feel
ings to you and to them. They far
exceeded anything known in the
history of the Grand Army or of the
Woman's Relief Corps In the great
ness of their hospitality, generosity
and kindly courtesy to us during the
encampment and every word used to
express our thanks should be writ
ten in italics. Sedgwiek Relief Corps
will ever hold in grateful remem-
brance all that was given them by
the citizens of Pullman, and beyond
all else will they honor you and them
for the respect and reverence given
our soldier boys of 81 to '65.
