SAW MILL TO CLOSE TOMORROW
NIGHT -

Tomorrow night at 1880 the local
saw mill will shut down for the season.
The reason for the early close is that
the company has no room to store the
lumber. ----+
Saving started on April Is this year,
nearly month later than in 1913. and
closing tomorrow night weeks sooner
than last fall, the mill shutting down
On December in 1913. No serious
trouble has been experienced in the
mill this summer, therefore necessitat-
ing no shutdowns. The season closing
tomorrow night will number 172 DAYS.
The amount of lumber sawed this
year is considerably less than last
year, the total cut being in the neigh
borhood OF 50,OOO.O00 feet, as com
pared with 65,OOO,OOO feet last wear.
The usual necessary repairs in the
mill will be made during the winter
months.

COMMERCIAL CLUB


The Commercial club held a regular
adjourned meeting at the city hall
Monday evening. The attendance was
fair, considering the fact that there
were other meetings the same evening
and that the weather was rather crisp.
! A communication from w. II. Gus
tafson, agricultural instructor at the
local high school, was read. Mr.. Gus
tafson asked the Commercial club to
donate $25 as prize money for school
affairs, to be held in the vicinity Of
Little Falls. He gave a short talk in
behalf Of the proposition, as did Sup
erintendent F. W. Dobbyn. After a
short discussion by the members Of the
club it was decided that the club
could not spare any money at this time,
and Mr.. Gustafson withdrew his pro-
position.
It was suggested that the secretary
write the Property Owners Federation
for information on insurance PROPOSE
tion, and to have policy Of the COM
pany on hand at the next meeting of
the club. This insurance company, it
is said, furnishes insurance at very
reasonable rates, and certain refund
is made to each Of the policy holders
annually.
The matter Of claying the Belle Prai-
rie road was brought up and discussed,
it having been said that bids had been
let for the work which were not the
lowest or best. The secretary was in
structed to write the state highway
commission and ask them to investi-
gate the matter.
Some time was spent discussing the
matter Of getting the proposed Luce
Electric Line to run into Little Falls.
This line, according to the promoters,
will be run from the twin cities to the
northern part of the state, coming
near this city. The secretary was in
structed to write the company in re-
gard to getting the line here. The
club then adjourned.

iDoWNED JORDAN OF CHICAGO IN
TWO STRAIGHT FALLS, WITH
TOE HOLD

Floyd Domer of Polo, ELL, who claims
10 be the champion light heavyweight
wrestler Of America, successfully de-
tended his title Tuesday evening in a
match with R. Jordan Of Chicago,
Greek, who claims the European cham
plonship in the same class. Domer se-
cured two straight falls, both with
the toe hold. It took him 531h min
utes to get Jordan the first time, but
IN the second he downed him in II
minutes.
The match was fast and interesting
from the spectators point of view, the
Wrestlers being very well matched. The
attendance was not what it should
nave been, due largely to the fact that
SO many "fake" . bouts have been
staged here heretofore, thereby killing
the love for this sport. Those who wit
messed the match Tuesday evening
were very well satisfied and are anx-
1ous to see both men meet here again.
Domer was scheduled to wrestle with
lsYoung Hackenschmidt Of Crookston,
Pollsh strong man, but the latter was
injured in a bout recently and announc-
led that he was unable to fulfill his
agreement, and therefore substituted
Jordan. He stated that he will wrestle
lpomer in the near future, possibly
within week or two.
Preliminaries for Tuesday evenings
match were wrestling match between
Earl Swanberg and Eugene Racicot
and a boxing match between Alvin
Glerok and Alex Smith. Swanberg
won the wrestling match, getting two
straight falls, and Smith got the best
Iof Gierok in the boxing match, three
l:2-mlnute rounds being staged.
e At the close of the biz match Domer
announced that he had accepted a
cnahenge from Peter Nelson Of Chica-
Ego FOR a match to be put on here in the
near future. Nelson is now wrestling
in South Dakota.
Jordan announced that he would
wrestie Domer at any time after two
weeks, providing the toe hold would be
barred. ,--,-r.-ss,----~,s-.-.

OF Inls city tor secretary of state,
Neill Cronin Of Minneapolis for attor-
nley general, c. NJ. Andrist for lieuten-
ant governor and also for DR.. J. A. Du-
lsBois Of Sauk Centre as, democratic
7 fcandidate for eongressman from. the
Sixth district. Dubois, he said. is not
a man who will vote against measure
SIMPLY because man Of opposite faith
introduces it.
Exception was taken to the state
ment by Mr.. Bergheim that the recall
should not apply to the judiciary. Mr..
eastman said that the law should ap-
ply to all public officials. Under that
law it would require the signature Of
80 per cent Of the people in the ter
ritory served by the official to GUST
him, and if this percentage of the peo-
pie are for his recall there must surely
be a pretty good reason for his re.
mOval
Frank Powers of St.. Paul was the
last speaker. He said that under the
present constructive democratic admin
1stration there are enough issues to
keep Mr.. eastman and himself busy
speaking, but that on this evening. he
had only one issue to talk about, and
that was Hammond for Governor.
In selecting the governor o. this
! state the people should vote, not as
democrats or republicans, but as GOOD,
conscientious citizens, who are eager
to see the executive department in cap
able hands. A man who is to hold
this office must have at least three
qualifications, ability, experience and
nnquestioned integrity. AS to Ham
mond's qualifications, Mr.. Powers
said that he is by far the most quail
fed man for the position. He received
his education in the schools of this
state and in Dartmouth college. His
experience is unquestioned, he having
been school teacher, superintendent
of schools, and four times congr, S.
man. He is man of great integrity,
and if elected will prove to be one Of
the greatest governors the state of
Minnesota has ever had. He stands
for the reduction of state expenses,
and Of giving the people 100 per cent:
on every dollar, he favors law which
would provide for the drainage Of the
waste lands owned by the state, in or
der to bring settlers in, simultaneously
increasing the value Of the land and
reducing the tax rate. He favors the
replenishing Of our forests, especially
on lands which are utterly worthless
for any other purpose than growing
Trees. This would in time bring mil
llonsof dollars into the state treasury
The speaker cited as instance Of the
value of demonstration provinces in
Germany which are maintained with
money derived from the forests. There,
he said, a new tree is planted for
every one cut. down.
The speaker spoke Of the power Of a
| governor to veto measure. When the
people express their will favorably for
a measure the governor should not
exercise his veto power. This power
should be used only when the will Of a
people is against a measure. Ham
mond 3 position in this regard is that
the people shall rule. He cannot be
corrupted by the influence Of the in
lterests any more than Lind, John A.
johnson or Wilson. Mr.. Powers closed
his talk by saying that tie people
should vote for the man for COVER
nor, and that this man IS Winfield
ISeott Hammond, &.

THRIFT AND THE MAN.
Self Help and Self Respect Allied to
 Good Citizens

Self Help and Self Respect Allied te
 Good Citizenship.
 Thrift is an essential and imperative part of good citizenship.
 The man who sets aside few pence or shillings every week or every month is not only making future provision for himself, his children or others who may be dependent on him; but, con sciously or unconsciously, he Is at the same time serving his country by help ing to create type of character whicf is one of the most valuable of nationa assets
 He is setting an example of self com mand every time he fights down tht temptation to spend on some passing pleasure the money which should bt reserved for more useful purpose And self command means much 1T good citizenship.
 He is setting an example of sell help He does not wait for something to turn up." but sets to work resolute ly to improve his position in life by his own exertions.
 He is setting an example of self re spect The saving of money honestly earned fosters that spirit of sturdy in dependence and confidence in ones own powers which have played nc small part in building up the prosper ity of this country.
 In addition to the ethical value whicf I have endeavored to indicate, the prac tice of thrift by individuals has a ma terial value to the nation. The secu rity of the intricate fabric of nationa credit depends to very large extent upon the reserve of capital accumu lated by those who invest in savings banks and similar institutions.-Sir T Vansittart Bowater in London An SWerS.

Dicgenea' Tub.

The tub in which Diogenes, the :ynic, made his home, was a great earthen jar discarded from the Cybele temple. 1t had been used for wine pr oil for the sacrifice of the temple and was sufficiently large to allow the philosopher a reclining place. The truth of the tale has been called into question, althougi, it is said that during the Peloponnesian war the Athenians dwelt in just such vessels, and that even after the death of. Di- ogenes such receptacles were used as dwelling places by the poor.
