It will no doubt be source Of pain
to President Wilson that the Hon. r.
B. Lynch disapproves Of the president s
proposal for direct primaries to nom-
mate presidential candidates. Such a
plan would mean the selection Of ma
tional committeeman by the people at
LARGE, and that is the last thing on
earth that would be wanted by the
Hon. Lynch. When the people Of st.
Paul voted for charter containing
the initiative, referendum and recall,
Lynch said he was surprised to think
there were $4,000 d-n fools in st.
Paul. Which is fair illustration of
the Lynch state Of mind. OF course
primaries and direct exercise Of pow
er by the people do not appeal to the
reactionary type of politician. Collec-
tor E. J. Lynch also questions the ad-
visibility of the president Is idea. In
spite Of the objections Of these emi-
nent democrats we believe the presi-
dent is right.

If the Twin City newspapers and
business men will only let the eastman
law alone for while, no one else will
worry about it, and the crocodile tears
being shed over the miseries Of the
small towns under the new act may
as well be dried. The systematic and
studied effort made to discredit this
law before it has a chance to be tried
is not without significance. It is easy
to talk about harmony between the
large cities and the country, and there
should be, but the country folks would
be glad to get some direct evidence
that they are not to be always re-
garded as commercial tributaries, fit
for exploitation principally.

FRIDAY, DECEMBER 10th.

The North Dakota lynching affair
was a disgrace and shame and had no
justification whatever. Trial had pro-
cecded speedily, and the prisoner found
guilty. The community worked itself
into 3 homicidal mania and lusted for
blood. It was wrong to have the trial
in a county where the atmosphere was
against the criminal. No man could
have a fair trial under such circum-
stances. The state of North Dakota
must bear the stain of this awful af-
fair, and no pains should be spared
to bring to justice the perpetrators.

TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND LIVES
SAVED

From every section Of Minnesota
the State Association for Prevention
and Relief of tuberculosis is daily re-
ceiving word from its. agents of sue
cessful Red Cross Christmas Seal sales.
Few perhaps stop to consider the re.
suits Of anti-tuberculosiss work in the
past, and few anticipate what the fu,
ture holds in store. Studying commun-
tiles in which education work concern
ing this disease has been in progress
for years, and in which provision has
been made to care for those suffering
from tuberculosis, we find that the NOR
tality rate has fallen over one-half,
which means, in this instance, that
out Of community Of stationary pop
ulation, only one-half the number of
deaths are yearly occurring as form
erly.
Each reader Of this will now ask
himself the pointed question "What
part have I taken in this fight against
the Great White Plague9" And then
whatever the answer be, he will decide
right now what will be his program
for the future, will he stand idly y by
and watch the few laboring necessarily
for the good Of many, or, will he COM
bine forces with them who need new
lives, new tools and new minds with
which to overcome this one dread dis
ease which, now ana Tor all time bear
in mind, is preventable.
