0Winton

Winton secured its revenge on
the Aurora team, who defeated
them early in the season by IL to
II score, and took last Sundays
contest by 9 to score. pulling
the same stunt as did the Aurora
team when they won. that is, nose
ing out victory in the 9th inning,
when the game was practically
sewed up.
The visitors by clean hitting
piled up six runs off Bradley's de-
livery in the first three sessions,
which kept them in the lead until
the 9th, when Winton found Ben
son, the Aurora HEAVIER, and by
four timely wallops, together with
a pair of errors or a pass, netted
them the necessary four runs to
overcome the to margin which
the visitors had over them. Owing
to the fact that the local team was
behind throughout the game, more
interest was displayed. and when
the final frame ended it lightened
the tension of the nerve worn fan,
which was plainly shown in the
restoration of their vocal powers.
Williams started the rally with a

AN UNFAIR DEAL PRINTERS.

The policy of Uncle Sam in
granting an exclusive contract to
one large Dayton, Ohio, printing
concern for printing corners on
stamped envelopes is an injustice to
the printers of the entire country.
This is matter that vitality inter-
ests every printer in the country,
and it shodld also interest every
other small businessman, for it
would be just as easy to sell shirts,
shoes, meats or groceries through
the post Office department as it is
to sell printed envelopes.
The system is not even benefit
to any considerable portion of the
people, but only benefits those
concerns which can afford to buy
their stamped envelopes in large
quantities such concerns can
usually afford to patronize the
printer.
And at that the practice would
not be so bad if the government
would conduct this feature of the
business on business lines, but it
is sort of charity affair for the
benefit of the Dayton contractor.
The government solicits the bust
ness, collects the amounts and de-
livers the money to the contractor.
Not only that, but the envelopes
are delivered from Dayton to the
customer through the mails free of
charge. The cost of this delivery
is added to the deficit which is
charged against second class mail
matter and is an added burden on
the newspapers of the country.
Just why the government should
enter into this kind of competition
with the printer is not clear. We
can see no reason for the govern
ment entering into the printing
business, especially when the
government turns the actual print
ing over to a private corporation
and does all the soliciting. collect
ing and delivering free of charge.

walk, who was then followed by
Lehrer who singled to deep right;
Williams who was then on second +,
made too bold an attempt to steal
third, and was cornered between
the bases, but at this point luck
was with him and he found him
self safely on the third sack; Camp
bell, next up, flied out to short,
but during the time, Lehrer added
steal to his credit also, and was
perched on the second sack. Then
the beginning of the fun started i,
when Berger drove one to center
field which touched the fence, and
brought in two runs, Gianotti in
turn reached first by an error,
Berger scoring on the same boot,
and with Bradley's and Walker S
singles Gianotti scored, thus bring
ing in the winning run.
Next Sunday the Hibbing Hooli-
gans will return for another game,

All the states are at it. AS an
mother sign of the overhauling
which the people are giving their
numbering, creaking state machin-
cry, conference has been called of
the northwestern states by the
Iowa people-a Commonwealth
Conference, they name ito be
held in October to discuss the same
proposition on which the Mime
sofa efficiency commission has been
working.
AS Minnesota has carried its
work little farther than any of
the other states that have taken up
the problem, the Minnesota report
is attracting great deal of atten-
ton.
It commands attention not only
by its substance, which is the work
of thirty men. but by the manner
of its presentation for which DR..
Durand of the Minnesota univer-
sity is largely responsible.
Scholars say it is scholarly and
business men say it is businesslike,
A banker, for instance, was
asked to look into it. oh, 1
haven't time to read a long winded
report" he replied. He was urged
to take shot at it and he read it
through. That is great" he
said. Every business man in the
state ought to read it,
From another point of view,
President Lowell of Harvard was
discussing its contents. 1t is the
most advanced step proposed by
any of the states" he said. If it
is adopted the example will be fol-
lowed by not less than ten states
within in a very few years.
So it seems to be up to Mime
sofa once more to take the lead.

government has been forty years
in the building, each legislature
adding a feature or two. Reor-
ganizing all this on a business
basis is no small task. In addi-
ton, a budget system has been
worked out and a civil service sys-
tenn recommended. The members
of the next legislature will have
plenty of work ahead of them and
they will be expected to apply
themselves to their task until it is
completed.
Pioneer Press: Several candi-
dates have pledged themselves to
support the recommendations of
the commission should they be
elected to the legislature, and the
outlook is that the demand for the
changes proposed in the present
system will be so universal that
the Senate and House will be COM
PEELED to take some action.
Duluth News Tribune: The
News Tribune regards the reorgan-
ization plan as the most important
issue of the campaign. 1t is the
one and only business form that is
proposed. 1t is the one method to
reduce taxes, and cut out the
political machine that has been
proposed.
There will be loud and insis-
tent chorus of objections from the
benefciaries of the present system.
That is why it is a good idea to
discuss these matters now with
the candidates for the legislature,
before they are clothed in author
ity.
P. A. Christensen, Hinckley,
Candidate for the legislature. }:
l have gone through the prelimin-
airy report of this committee and
in the main can heartily endorse
the plan throughout. And should
/ be elected to the State Senate,
should be pleased to cooperate
with the progressive element and
secure the passage of laws bringing
about the reform you outline.

ALL Europe is staggered by the
war, and while the news dispatches
are paying more attention to the
results of the struggle, that is,
engagements between the conflict
ing forces, there is side of the
struggle that is receiving scant
attention, Germany has voted over
one billion dollars to carry her
colors to glory; England has APP
propriated $525, 100000 for emer-
gency',, purposes; Russia and
France have also voted immense
sums for use in war and the small
countries engaged in the struggle
will also have to spend vast sums.
This money will have to be raised
by taxation and in most instances
the people are already overburden-
with taxes. What the outcome of
it all will be question that is on
every tongue. Yet even the most
hopeless agree that this greatest of
all wars will stagger all humanity.

what constitutes contraband.
Such questions cannot conceivably
involve us in difficulties. They
will be settled by the ordinary
processes. The general principles
of neutrality and neutral commerce
are plain. The United States will
adhere vigorously to them. Friend
ly intercourse, as far as circum-
stances permit, will be its rule and
its procedure.
Stock exchanges have closed
a wise precaution. This country
cannot be the dumping ground of
the whole body of securities that
war-mad Europe is anxious to con-
vert into money. The closing is
temporary. Elsewhere there is no
prospect of interference with the
orderly processes of American
business. Stable conditions are
here. All we have to do is to keep
them stable.
The administration has decided
to appeal officially to the public to
help maintain existing satisfactory
conditions. The public cannot
fail to respond. The only danger
is one which it may create itself.
Its course is simple. All it has to
do is to sit tight. to do nothing to
disrupt the fortunate condition in
which this country happily finds
itself.
Don't rock the boat-that's the
central idea! The swell from the
great battleship Europe" will be
felt. But it will not hurt us. 1t
need not even break over the sides.
There's nothing the matter with
the boat that we are in. Straight
and strong, well-seamed, we'll
caulked, well-timbered, with rea-
sonable guidance it will bear us
safely and prosperously through.
Sit Tight! Don't rock the boat!
Keep its head we'll up against the
sea! Don't let it get into the
trough of the waves! Let every
man realize that at this moment
calm confidence and calm thank
fulness are the first duty. They
are absolutely justified by the
favorably situation in which we
find ourselves. They are the GER
tain guarantee of a continuance of
those directions. Chicago Record

SIT tight! Don't rock the boat!
That's the watchword today.
That's the first duty of every
American at this moment. That's
what this country needs to keep it
straight and safe and true to its
course absolutely all it needs.
Business conditions are sound.
We have one of the greatest grain
crops in history. Its value has
already greatly advanced. We
have a sound financial system,
backed by the greatest store of gold
in the world. Our banks are solid.
safe. There is nothing the matter
with the United States.
War will mean an unprecedented
demand for supplies. Experts de-
clare American business will feel a
great impetus. While other ma
tions destroy, this country will
produce. While other nations are
armed camps, this country will be

extension is predicted in all direc-
tions. The immediate future is
plain.
The national administration is
acting wisely, promptly. The sum
of $500, OOO,O Is available, under
the ALDRIcH- VREELAND act, for
an emergency. The organization
of the reserve board will soon be
complete. This will enable us to
deal more effectively with the out
flow of gold. Plans are perfecting
to permit American registry on
foreign vessels. This will protect
and develop our commerce.

strict neutrality. Questions may
