THE WORLD WAR.

The invading German army in
France is still holding it's intrenched
line along the Aisne, after a struggle
of eighteen days. The main fighting
is being done on the TANKS with vary
ing success. With both sides con-
stantly rushing up re-inforcements
and the line gradually extending it is
impossible to foretell what the result
of the unprecedented struggle will be.
The Germans are besieging Ant
werp, the last remaining stronghold
of the Belgians, and report the fall of
several outside forts. English artillery
is said to have been brought to the
city's assistance.
The Russians claim great victory
over the Germans at the river Me
men, admitting that the latter had
penetrated "a miles east of the from
tier toward the strategic point of Vii
ma. The Germans deny defeat. I'm
mense armies, said to be commanded
by the German and Russian emperors
in person, are concentrating in the
neighborhood of Cracow, on the Aus.
trian. border line. In numbers the
Russian and Austro-German forces
are said to be larger than those con.
testing in France.
As week after week drags on, the
world is coming to the realization that
the war is likely to become long
drawn-out contest. There appears nc
likelihood of any nation concerned
suing for peace until every resource
Of strength has been exhausted.

To the School Officers.

The Commission on Education, Gre
ated by the last legislature, has rec
commended certain changes IN our
school management, which will be up
to the coming legislature for passage.
First-To abolish all our rural
school districts and make each coun.
ty one district known as the common
school.
This common district should be ad.
ministered by board of five men,
bers, each member serving three years
and elected at large from that part of
the county included in the common
district.
The board of the common district
shall have power
l. To subdivide the district for pur-
poses of school attendance and school
administration and for voting on
school questions.
2. To levy taxes for the mainten-
ance Of all schools in the districts.
3. To make levies for school build
ings and sites.
4. With the approval of the state
board of education to issue bonds ur
to two per cent of the assessed realty
valuation of the district. Any issue
of bonds beyond this amount must
first be authorized by a vote of the
district.
S. To elect a superintendent for the
district for a term of four years.
h;c Int xv,o,,11 <oIro III
place of our present county superin-
tendent. He might be chosen outside
the county or even outside the state.
This is so great a change from our
present system that every school pat
ron in the county should study it thor.
oughly. Look at the powers given to
this board of five members. They
could put bond issue on my present
district of $1,143, and we would have
nothing to say in the matter. They
would levy the tax for maintenance,
new school houses, and sites. A ST.
perintendent may be from another
state, would make new changes. that
might not benefit our schools. What
would be the expense Of this new
board?
The election is drawing near and
we have two candidates for county
superintendent of schools.
Supt. Frederickson has gone on rec
ord as being opposed to this new
change.
Prof. A. E. Nelson is known to be
in favor Of this new change.
Now let us hear from school patrons
who believe the school is our nearest
and most important institution.
Yours for more information,

EIGHTEEN MONTHS OF WILSON.

Has anybody stopped to think what
type of man Woodrow Wilson is? Has
anybody seriously considered the kind
of administrative work he has done
and the kind of legislative work he
has induced Congress to do?
Did anybody ever hear of an Amer
lean President who, in so short a
time, has done so much to elicit the
confidence, the admiration and the ap-
plause Of so many of his country
men?
What he is to his country and what
his country is to him are evidenced
in the kind Of legislation he has
brought forward. His currency law
has the unqualified approval of all. 1t
is so excellent in it's provisions that
it received not only the support of the
Democrats in Congress; but of many
Republicans and Progressives. It
solved problem that no other states
man dared try to solve, though Con-
gress and committees of Congresses,
and leaders and groups Of leaders
dallied with it and lodged it for a
generation.
His tariff superseded the most i'll
famous tariff in history. It received
the Congressional support not only of
the Democratic members, but of La
Toilette and many other progressive
Republicans. 1t was fought at the
time and is fought now only by stand
patters, cheap politicians and unfair
newspapers for political purposes.
The vote Of such a statesman as
La Toilette for the present tariff
shows the country what kind of men
its critics are.
The antitrust legislation, the Cham
berlain railroad bill for Alaska, the
income tax measure are others of a
program to build up the country and
free business and industry from the
autocracy Of the trusts. What Presi-
dent in American history has done so
much in so brief time to plan for
greater national prosperity, pros
perity to come with unexampled
for adjustment and for the handicaps
of a bloody European war to pass
away?
1t is kind of legislation and a
quantity Of legislation never before
accomplished in so brief time 1t
is legislative achievement carrying
more relief and protection for the peo-
pie than any American President ever
secured in a whole term. It is legis-
lation directed to human welfare and
to a wise constructive adjustment Of
the forces of national life and BUSH
ness out of which to bring the most
prosperity to the most people. 1t is
an earnest of the kind of things Wood
ow Wilson will try to secure for his
countrymen during the remaining two
and one-half years of his term.
What woodrow Wilson brings to
his country is evidenced In the con-

HAMMOND'S KEYNOTE.

In supplement accompanying this
issue we publish in full the Redwing
keynote speech of Congressman Ham.
mond. We have previously published
Mr.. Lees opening speech delivered at
Marshall. All voters should read
these utterances of the candidates in
order to be informed as to the posi-
tons they take and enable the read
ers to vote intelligently.
Mr.. Hammond's speech reflects his
ability as a public speaker. No skill
of oratory, however, can hide his
lame position on the liquor question.
On this issue he is many years be-
hind the progressive citizenship of
these parts. He admits that intern.
perance is wrong both economically
and morally but bubbles over the
remedy. His attitude is disappoint-
ment to many of his supporters in
West Central Minnesota, who believe
his heart is right and that he is most
excellently equipped to administrate
the great Office of governor of Mime
sofa with credit to the state as we'll
as himself.
His attitude in favor of nonparti-
san elections of state officers is sound.
He recognizes that non-partisan legis-
lators and county officials has abol-
ished the government by national par
ties in Minnesota, and the voters of
Minnesota should be given the right
of majority selections of their state
officers. But this very condition
makes it more necessary than ever
that candidates should take stand
on one side or the other on issues be-
fore the people. He advocates re-
duction Of taxation, the placing of
state employees on the merit system
which will do away with the "spoils'
system, is in favor of direct legisla-
ton, is opposed to using arbitrary
veto power, especially on questions
that have been discussed before the

have been experiments for = number
of years before his statement that dis
ease was amendable to treatment in a
mechanical way. He argued further
that effect followed cause, then re.
moving the cause would relieve the
symptom. And this has been our
watchword ever since; Find it, fix it,

some of the most stubborn cases have

only once.
Regarding DR.. A. G. Hildreth, 1
might say that he took up Osteopathy
because Of his wife being cured of
blindness, not partial, but complete
blindness. That was one of the most
wonderful of cures in the early his
tory Of Osteopathy in this country.
DR.. Hildreth's wife had lost her sight
due to a growth over the pupil, but
was cured with little difficulty.
Father tried to get the medical
profession out In Kansas to accept his
teachings, but they wouldn't and it is
good thing for Osteopathy that they
didn't, as it probably would have died
there. The very fact that his own
medical brother, his friends, and the
men who had been with and under him
in the medical department of the army
rebelled, and said they couldn't see
anything in his new ideas, and if there
was, it was the work of the devil ard
they didn't care to have anything to
do with His Satanic Majesty at the
present time, made him more persist.

alone. 1t might be said that they chas.
ed him out of Kansas. So he came to
Missouri, his old stamping ground. He
and his father had come to Missouri
and located fourteen miles north OF
Kirkesville before there was any
Kirkesville. It was then Macon coun
ty, and extended to the Iowa line. He
felt quite sure that as this had been
his first home in the West, somebody
here would take kindly to his new
plans, but he was received as he had
been in Kansas; but with the firm de
Termination of one who knew he had
something that others did not have, he
persisted, and that is what established
