REST ROOMS PROMOTE
SHOPPING NEAR HOME.

Rest rooms for farmers wives In
the smaller towns are said to be the
only solution of the catalogue house
problem said Mrs. &C. M. Conant Of
Wells at the Woman's club federation
meeting Luverne, on Wednesday. I'm
towns where there is n o place for
the women to rest they hesitate to
come in to shop. When they do come
in the children get tired and cross and
hungry; the mother become disguised
and goes home. Then, after the chill
dren are put to bed she gets out the
mail order catalogue and orders what
she needs, regardless of the fact that
she pays more for shoddy goods and
is not able to see what h is buying.
If the merchants of small towns rea-
lized that a. rest room would make it
possible for the rural woman to ONE
to town in comfort, have a place to
rest and get something to eat while
she is doing her shopping. they would
stop putting obstacles in the way OF
club women when they try to estab-
lish rest rooms.
Merchants say they want the wom-
EN- to stay in the stores when they
come to town, not Ia the rest room,
but when they have to hang around
the stores all day the children eat
cookies all over the goods and both
mothers and children help themselves
to- fruit and cookies that are exposed.
sIf the merchants want to put the mail
order houses out of business let them
put rest rooms in their towns.

The council also listened to an ex-

in effect in both North Dakota and
Minnesota. The executive committee
will hold another meeting tomorrow
morning at which time the proposition

BIG ROW
IN RUSSIA

st. Petersburg. June IA complete
breach has been opened between the
Russian government and the duma.
Members of the cabinet announced
that neither the ministers nor the
heads of departments will appear in
the house until conditions are estab-
l1shed under which the representatives
OF the government can be secure from
the insults of the members of the
duma.'
The immediate cause was a remark
made by a reactionary member in the
DEBATES while the minister of finance
was speaking by crying out: stSteaI-

that his remark not only applied to the
minister of finance but to all the ofi-

MADERo NOT MURDERED?

The Mexican military court which
has been investigating the killing OF
the late President Francisco |. Ma
dero and Jose Maria Pine Suarez,
has announced its decision that their
deaths were not brought about by
a punishable crime; that they were
killed in a fight between the guards
who had them in charge and persons
who had attacked the guards.
The report of the court is un-
doubtedly a white wash" of the
real murderers, and probably means
that Huerta does not dare to punish
the men who killed Madero and
Suarez in the National palace and
then carried out the fake fight
near the penitentiary. The murder
ers were evidently acting under
orders and were safe from punish
ment.
The decision of the Mexican mill
tary court will not help Huerta be-
fore the eyes of the civilized world.
