SPUTTER AND FUSS

An immense amount of sputter
and fuss was kicked up by the. tt
tanic disaster.
Remember the Republic?
In the summer of 1908 the Florida
rammed the Republic and everybody
aboard would have been lost had it
not been for the wireless.
There was much ado following
that near tragedy.
But the Titanic proved that it was
merely ado"
There was practically nothing
done.
The American people are the most
wonderful people in the world to
lock the barn after the horse is stolen
and then throw the paddock away
just in time to accommodate some
other night visitor.
If real Improvement in the life
saving devices of ocean liners were
to follow this Titanic disaster the
fruits might be worth the price. But
are you justified in looking for much
change?
Less "sound and fury signifying
nothing and more real attention to
essentials would mean the loss of
fewer lives.

against corruption, as distinctly and
emphatically progressive.
THE TIME TO ACT

Redwood Falls is to have a good
roads meeting in the near future.
Let's make this hummer.
The Improvement in the roads OF
this county this spring over last
spring is marked.
Publicity has accomplished this.
There is room for more work.
Renville county has long enjoyed an
enviabIe reputation for good roads.
Let's rival hef.
The farmers are becoming inter-
ested. The burden in this case as in
great many other cases rests upon
the farmers.
Arrange with them to use the drag
and half the battle is won.
Of course the road system is
wrong if it is really good roads that
are desired.
Perhaps nothing better can be de-
vised, though at present.
To do the best possible under the
system, that is the thing and that is
what is not being done.
Have you ever figured the cost of
transportation from the farm to the
market?
Do so. You'll be astonished.
Good roads will greatly reduce
this cost. While the farmers at pre-
sent must do most Of the work they
are the ones who gather the great
est and most direct benefit in reduced
cost of transportation and increased
land values.

ELECT PROGRESSIYES

Go to the primaries Saturday

If Taft is right and the people

Official Paper of Redwood County

The little cares that fretted me,
| lost them yesterday,
Among the fields above the sea
Among the winds at play;
Among the lowing of the herds,
The rustling of the trees,
Among the singing of the birds,
The humming of the bees.
The foolish fear of what may happen,
cast them all away,
Among the clover-scented grass
Among the new-mown hay.
Among the husking of the corn
Where drowsy peoples nod.
Where i'll thoughts die and good are
born,
Out in the fields with God.

ENEMIES OF KING

Inspired Statement Says They Start
ed Unfounded Rumor OF
His Illness

Vienna, Dec. 17.-An inspired
statement says that in the future EN-
peror Franz Joseph will grant only
collective audiences to the ministers,
instead of receiving them separately.
This has caused an unfounded rumor
OF the emperor's acute illness.
From inquiries made in authorita-
tive circles it Is learned that the en-
peror's health gives not the slightest
cause for alarm. The emperor is
working from morning until evening
and 1t is stated that rumors to the
contrary are part of political cam
paign of unprecedented violence and
perienCy designed to scare the Aus
Hungarian public into the belief
that war is inevitable
The curt wording of the emperor's
letters accepting the designations of
General Auffeuberg as minister of
war and General Schuua as chief of
a staff is causing much comment in
military circles. The newspapers
point out that neither letter contains a
single word of recognition for the
past services of these eminent Off
GERS.
