Joseph P. TUMULTY, Irish and iri-
= descent, now holds the boards as the
Great National Surprise. Before he came
to Washington all the boys who had been
talking politics, growing long boards, and
affecting a wild and prophetllke glare IN
their eyes, issued this opinion to anybody
who wanted to listen to them-the listeners,
by the way, not being numerous:
"Tumulty is fine fellow to advise the
President on the policies he should pursue.
In that way he will be one of the grandest
presidential secretaries in our history. But
he's not mixer. He doesn't get along very
well with the people. Get him started, and
he's apt to kick Senator on the point of the
chin or to grab a newspaper man by the lett
arm and fling him through four or five plate
glass windows"
That was all wrong. As mixer, the new
secretary to the President makes an egg
beaten look like milk strainer. The first
thing he did was to get solid with all the
newspaper correspondents. Touching an
electric bell with his stout and trusty fore
finger, he told messenger to ask the writer's
in. and then he turned loose upon them the
dazzling smile of the Emerald Isle, wooed
them with words of wisdom charmed them
with chuckles of delight. One by one, and
with great rapidity, their looks of misgiving
faded. The SHOWS that had been built about
them by the long bearded and ignorant
prophets vanished Mr.. Tumulty, the poll
tician and the diplomatist, had made good.
1t was the same thing with Senators, Rep
resentatives, and the jobseekers who sue
ceeded in beating their way into the White
House. He handled them all with the skill
of dancing master. The thinnest cobwebs
of political complications were nothing to
him. He danced upon them with the hap
piness and grace of young lover guiding his
sweetheart down path of rosy dalliance to
the sound of lutes and flutes and vlolins.
Frankly speaking, this man Iumuty,
upon whom Woodrow Wilson leans. IS two
kinds of politician. One OF his greatest
stunts is to climb into mysterious cavern
of thought, to spend many hours there, to
emerge from it as if he had concealed on his
person much treasure, to touch Woodrow
quietly on the elbow and say, "In order to
save the country, the party, and your per-
sonalitv-not to mention mlne-from rum
and oblivion we must adopt this policy, and
so forth"
AS a policy king, Joe occupies high
throne.
His other big performance is to leap lightly
to the platform during campaign and emit
loud and raucous roars for triumphant De-
mocracy. They say of him in New Jersey
that he can reach over from the edge OF a
stage with his metaphors and push man S
heart right down into his boots, or, hitting
that same soul through the hair OF the listen
er's head. brandish it before the stunned
and amazed public All of which IS ex-
planned by the fact that ne thinks Out ms

wealth of the state are such as to war
rant such measures is a Legislative
and not a judicial question: ques-
ton of legislative policy and not OF
legislative power.
It was urged that the action could
not be maintained because there was
no provision in the statutes for an ac-
ton upon any such demand; that Sec.
1883. R. L. 1905, the only expressed
provision on the subject, provides Tor
actions only upon contract or Tor
acts or omissions in the nature OF
tort. But it is clear that the act OF
1911 creates an obligation on the part
of No. SO. The creation of the obllg-
alton carries with it by necessary I'M
plication the right to its enforcement.
There is ample provision for payment
of judgement when lawfully OBJ
tanned.
The conclusion is that the complaint
of No. 60 states cause OF action ana
that the order overriding the demur-
rer should be and is affirmed.

made a record of AZ lbs of butter in a
week, and who recently sold for the
sum of $1,000. 1t would appear that
the Redwood Holstein Farm has
spared no expense and pains to deve-
iop the best. They are very glad to
have any one interested in the dairy
business, visit the farm and see these
cattle, and just how they are handled.
In order to develop the young stock
TO it's greatest possible advantage,
these stockmen have recently shipped
in carload of alfalfa hay from Kan
Sas City. We understand that great
deal of alfalfa is being sown in Red
wood County, and we trust that it will
not be long before our home farmers
will be able to furnish alfalfa for
themselves, and not be paying $4,000
per ton to get it shipped in.
With the high prices of butter fat
during the past few years, and the
promising future, we believe that it
will pay our farmers to give the dairy
interests their best consideration.
With the success of Sears and Gold as
dairymen, and the success of such
feeders of beef stock as Robt. Stewart
and M. L. Quesenberry to serve as ex-
amples of what can be done, Redwood
county stock raisers should set their
aim high.

from 1914 to 20 cents per gallon.
When 1914 gives way to 1918, when
all of the machines in the state must
be re-registered, providing the extra
session of the legislature makes pro-
vision for the same, there will be
over $4,000 automobiles in the state.
Financiers A Bit Nervous
Today l am not pessimistic over the
financial future, so far as it is to be
effected by the purchase Of automo-
biles. l am nervous over the finan-
cial situation, caused by the tariff
tinkering down in Washington, and
from the greater fear Of the big rail
road men jockeying the money mar
ket as the result of the decisions OF
the United States Supreme court in
the railroad rate decisions, the latter
meritorious and wise in the extreme.
If you will drift around among
bankers, and attempt to negotiate a
loan, no matter what your land and
other property worth, outside of real
money, may be, you will find them
fearful of loaning you what you want
and what you can use. They will try
to turn you down and you will go a.
way feeling that when you want to
use them the most they are cash shy.
But they are nervous, and it is just as
well to jolt you into knowing that
there is now a Tightening up.
The automobile has passed from the
luxury to the necessity. They are be-
ing purchased today largely by the
men who have the right to buy them
the farmers, the men who get the
money from the ground, where the
wealth must come from. The appli-
cations coming into the state depart
ment daily show this.
They are not high priced machines
that are being bought by this sub
stantial class of citizens but they are
machines of durable character, anc

prescribing as duty the exercise OF
this inherent power.
The statute under which the Hector
independent district acted is within
the legislative power. The state has
always imposed upon each community
the burden of providing for the ele-
snentary education of its children. 1t
has required school districts to main
tain common schools for at least five
months in the year and to provide by
taxation sufficient revenue therefore.
The power of the legislature to make
such requirement has never been
doubted. 1t is equally within the pow
er of the legislature to provide that
II district does not see fit to furnish
school facilities of its own it shall pay
some other district for the furnishing
of such facilities.
Question is Unusual
The court says that if this were a
question of common school education
the proposition probably would not be
questioned. But the power of the
legislature to impose a system of pub
lie school education upon local COM
munities is not limited to common
branches alone. 1t is the judgment
of the legislature that this state
should now require public education in
something more than the common
branches; that it should provide for
the public education of boys in that
which pertains to successful agricul-
ture, and of girls in that which per-
tains to successful housekeeping. The
question whether the population and

enough to remark that if a man owned
threshing machine or stallion his
credit was injured, and if he owned
both, he sure was booked for a finan-
cial wreck. Just now, an automobile

picion by the average banker and

eating, but in the meantime they have
made finds. The first is motor spirit,
which they are selling for 13 cents
per gallon, and which is being used in
trucks, etc. The Standard Oil agent
informed me few days ago that rail-
road companies were using it instead
of gasoline, where they have hereto
fore used gasoline altogether, and
that trainloads were now being
shipped into the farm fields for use in
gasoline thresher engines. This re-
lieves the situation, and gasoline is
not likely to go higher than 1914 cents
in st. Paul.
Motor spirit is a non-deodorized
oil. 1t stinks numerically, but if you
keep the stink back of you, the other
fellow, and not you, will have to suf-
fer. 1t is claimed for it, that, in ac-
tual efficiency, it is better than gaso-
line by about 20 per cent. A car may
be started easier when run by it, es-
pecially in cold weather. 1t produces
more power than gasoline, and mas
much as there is 25 per cent. saving
in the price, the stink is not likely to
keep it unpopular.
It is made from what is formerly
known as fuel oil, extracted by the
process of pressure distillation, and
under which process it is possible to
secure about as many gallons of mo-
tor spirit from a given amount Of
crude run as now are obtained of
gasoline. Thus the total production
of fuel suitable for gasoline engines
can be practically doubled.
Search Still Going On
Experiments are being made with
kerosene and other by-products, the
feeling being that gasoline and motor
spirit will not alone meet present con-
ditions. In order to use kerosene diff
ferent carburetors will have to be in
vented, although there are men who
contend that they are now running
cars on mixtures of gasoline and ker-
osene, while using only standard types
of carburetors. In case successful
way is found for the use of kerosene
the problem will be greatly simplified
