KIMBALL CANNOT
HOLD SLA7ON CROWD

Atlanta. Ca, Aug. cit has been
conceded that Governor John
NJ. Stations strength in his home city
of Atlanta was so great as to make
the opposition inconsiderable, but
Atlanta was hardly prepared for the
enthusiasm which followed the an
nouncement of the first open meeting
of his friends. The Kimball House
ballroom, proved entirely too small
and the crowd had to adjourn to the
Forsyth theatre, which hardly held
them. The march through the streets
gave some indication of Governor Sla-
tons popularity at home.s.
At the Slaton headquarters the
clerks are working their heads off op-
ening letters. From every county
come assurance of cordial support,
and inc experts who are going over
the mail are confident that the Slaton
majority will be such as to render 4
convention squabble impossible.

N'CUBREY'S CARDS WERE
PRINTED IN MOORHEAD

The Thief River Falls News-Press
remarks: I'VE notice that l. A. Cas-
well, clerk of the supreme court,
had his printing done in Minneso-
ia, while his opponents cards bear
a North Dakota imprint. We opine
that when the votes are counted
said opponent will think he has been
running for office in some other state
Who is Mr.. Caswells opponent?
Cheap Claptrap-very cheap. Mr..
McCubrey's candidacy cards were
printed in a MOOrhead printing office
and more, Mr.. McCubrey is too astute
and honest to have his printing done
anywhere, than in his own state.
Moorhead, printers, under regulations
of the union, use the same printers
label as Fargo, N. D., and it bears the
names Of the two towns and that is
why the name Fargo" appears. The
editor Of The Thief River Falls paper
evidently wanted to start something
and displayed himself as being
ultra smart" Mr., McCubrey has
just as much right to be a candidate
for the Office he is seeking as the pa
pers, against him, have the right to
oppose him, if they want to, but there
is no sense in their making laughing
stocks Of themselves. The job which
Mr.. CasWell holds is not a life one.

SHOWED QUEER IDEAS
ON PARLIAMENTARY LAW

Mankato Free Press: The Mankato
school board, at a recent meeting,
showed peculiar ideas about parlia-
mentary law. A teacher, who had re-
igned, and whose resignation had
been accepted. desired to be reinstated.
A motion was made n passed that
the motion. whereby the resignation
was accepted, be reConsidered. Then
no further action was taken in the
matter, and the teacher was consider
ed reinstated. As a matter Of fact,
the mere reconsideration Of the res
ignation placed affairs in just the
state in which they stood in regard
to the matter before the resignation
was accepted. Thus no action was
taken in the resignation at all. 1t
was merely before the board, be-
ing neither accepted nor declined,
The superintendent remarked after
the meeting that this mattered
nothing as a practical proposition,
as the teacher could hold her place
as the de facto incumbent Of the
position. So no harm was done.

BETTER FARMING
MOVEMENT SPREADS

The Better Farming movement IS
making splendid progress in MIME
sofa. A large I'M of county agents
have been placed in the field and are
meeting with great success in carry
ing on work with the farmers or the
various counties. The lines that are
being most emphasized are corn and
alfalfa production, stock raising, farm
ers' clubs and the campaign against
hog cholera.
During the past few years there has
been a strong sentiment in the state
favorable to Investigation. This SEN
timent has been much intensified by
the labors Of the county agent. The
method of carrying on the work has
been very similar to that adopted by
the Better Farming section of the
North Dakota Experiment station in
the work In North Dakota. The con-
ditions as to progress in the two states
are 80 similar that much OF the same
kind ofwork Is possible.
This movement was first started in
North Dakota in 1911. 1t was k
up by Minnesota the latter part of
1912. The states of Minnesota and
North Dakota now employ about me-
fourth Of the total men in the north
that are employed IN this work. The
people Of Minnesota are very enthu-
siastic over the Better Farming work
and the results that have been Sc
cured.
