TEMPERANCE WINS
GREAT VICTORIES
ARGYLE, STEPHEN, HALLocK
AND KENNEDY REMAIN
DRY.

Another great battle between the
wet and dry forces took place in
Tuesdays elections. Our sister towns
to the north, Argyle and Stephen, did
themselves proud by voting to keep
out the saloons by overwhelming ma
jorities. The vote in Argyle was 54
for and 1O3 against saloons. All the
prominent business men Of the town
and all the churches united to fight
the saloon. The Catholic priest was
foremost in the fight against rum. At
Stephen the vote stood AZ for to "a
against saloons, also a very decisive
vote which shows how the people of
Stephen feel towards the saloon.
Hallock went dry by SO to SO, Ken
nedy remains dry and at st. Vincent
all for no license.
The village of Fisher voted out the
saloon by the decisive vote Of 56 to
Is. The town had two saloons the
past year.

WARREN FARMERS co-oPERA
TIVE SHIPPING AssociA-


The Board of Directors, elected Feb.
ruary 28th, held their first meeting in
the Warren High School building, Sat
urday, the 18th of March. The follow
Il farmers are on this board: J. W..
apa, Geo. Copp, August Anderson,
orge Wiley, Harrison Palmer, A. G..
knutson and n. Godel. j. w. Mapps
was elected president Of this board,
George Copp, vice president, and
George Wiley secretary and treasur-
or. A. G. Knutson and Harrison
Palmer constitute the auditing board
and Elmer Johnson was appointed for
shipping agent.
The organization is now completed
and stands ready to do business. Any
farmer can belong to this organization
who wants to abide by their rules and
regulations. The Constitution ana
Bylaws you will find printed in this
issue of the Sheaf. All farmers in this
vicinity who have live stock that they
wish to ship will do well In afiliating
themselves with The Warren Farmers
Cooperative Shipping Association. I
think this Is the best move that the
farmers Of this part Of the country ev-
or made and 1t Is the duty Of every
body to back this work up and boost
for il. 1t will do good to us all. Let

A HUMAN LIFE
WRECKED BY DRINK


Ole Hanson, a laboring man about
56 years old died at the Scandia Ho-
tel on the east side last Saturday. He
had been i'll since the early part Of De-
cember. Mr.. Hanson was plasterer
and had been working at his trade in
and around the city for number of
years. He was a genial man and a
good workman, but his great failure
was that he spent all his earnings in
the saloons, thus undermining his
mental and bodily health and making
himself human wreck. During the
past month or two he has been cared
for at the hotel at public expense. The
life and premature death of Mr.. Han
son is Of itself striking temperance
lesson. AS far as we know he had no
relatives in this country, only some
cquaintances, one being A. L. Rud,
near Radium, who came from the
same part in Norway. The funeral
was held from the hotel this after
noon, Rev. Knudtsen officiating.

ENTHUSIASTIC
TEMPERANCE
GATHERINGS
a. G. RANKIN, ONCE AN IRON
MOUlDER, is ADDRESSING
LARGE MEETINGS AT OPERA
HOUSE EVERY EVENING THIS.
WEEK, EXCEPT SATURDAY

The people of Warren are being stir
red to the core on the liquor question
by the earnest, forceful and able ad-
dresses of the venerable and well
known temperance advocate, A. c..
Rankin, who at one time was an iron
moulder, but owing to his wonderful
powers OF oratory, keen intellect and
overfowing sympathy for poor, suffer
ing humanity, has been transferred
from the foundry to the more subtle
work of moulding the hearts, charac-
ters and lives of his fellow men. The
meetings commenced Sunday after
noon, when Mr.. Rankin addressed a
large gathering of men at the opera
house, and on Sunday evening the
opera house was filed to over-flowing
with people who came to hear the elo-
quent speaker deliver his message
against rum. At the close of this
meeting ESQ persons, men, women
and children, signed the pledge. An
other great meeting was held on Mon
day evening and another one on Tues
day evening. At each meeting Mr..
Rankin delivered powerful addresses.
By sound logic and convincing argu-
ments he attacked the citadel of de-
mon rum from all sides, leaving not
one stone upon another behind which
the friends Of the eesaloon can hide as
an excuse. 1t would seem that such
a clarion call to arms against the
greatest evil in this nation today,
ought not to go unheeded, and the
friends of temperance in the city pray
and hope for good results from these
meetings. However. they are not un-
mindful of the fact that all the wealth
and power OF the Brewers Association
and their hirelings are concentrated
in this comraign on our little city, in
order that the saloons may be retain
ed. If the saloons are voted out of
Warren this year, there will be no
town between Crookston and st. Vim
cent, where whiskey can be bought.
and that would be too awful calami-
ty in the eyes of the brewers. No
money or efforts will be spared there
fore to keep Warren wet If the
burning words of the white haired and
eloquent old man, Mr.. Rankin, can pre-
vail against such foe, it will be a
wonder. The temperance people of
the city hope and pray that the tenn
perance cause may prevail

POLICE SIGNAL LIGHT.

Considerable trouble has been ex.
perienced in the past by parties look
ing for the assistance of a police Of
ficer. Arrangements have been made
to install signal light at the city hall
in connection with the telephone. At
times when there is no one to answer
the phone in the building this light is
connected to an apparatus which will
turn on the light when the telephone
bell rings. Any policeman on the
street will see this light and will i'm
mediately call up the telephone Office
to find out who has sent the call. The
telephone number Of the police depart
ment is 10 and parties who call this
number are instructed to give the
central office their own telephone
number an dname.

CIGARETTE LAW SHOULD

injurious to his health, but is against
the law of the State. Sec. 8 Of Chap.

COMMENTS ON
CITY CHARTER
by WELL KNOWN BUSINESS MEN
AND CITIZENS Or THE
CITY.

August A. johnson: think the
proposed new charter should be adopt
[ed because it contains many features
tnat are absolutely necessary, taking
into consideration the growth of The
|ctty, and the change in conditions
since the old charter was adopted
While it may lack some provisions
that some of us would like to have in
Guided, yet, it is a step forward. Let
us be progressive
r. B. Taralseth: The proposed new
charter is a good one and we must
have it if we are to progress as a city.
We must have the necessary machin-
cry with which to do the business of
the city at the present time.
Julius T.. Olson: am heartily in ia
Yor OF the adoption Of the new charter
and shall work for it's adoption to the
best of my ability.
Mayor Wittensten: The Charter
Commission is unanimous in favoring
the adoption Of the new charter.
A. N. Eckstrom: I am in favor of
the new charter. It is a good deal bet
ter than the old and it's adoption will
be for the best interests of the town.
Aug. Lundgren: My idea has been
for years that the city ought to have a
more up-to-date charter under which
the business of the city can be more
efficiently administered I intend to
support the new charter.
| 49, - -. ! i 4 u . = Z
G. E. Lundquist: 'sI am heartily in.

be in practically the same position as
any person would be who has to bor-
row money and can get no credit Tha.
charter will reduce and equalize the.
taxes
IF, z. Colson: AS far as can see the
proposed charter seems to be all right.
sLewis Westman: / have not yet
read the proposed charter thru, but as
far as have read it, it is much better

All l have read thus far favor.
Judge Grindeland: I am for the new
charter. have full confidence in the
commission that framed it and believe

|issst E'sat tos i; adopt It: -. ------.s..
A.. G. SWandby: I hope that the
charter will go thru. I think it is a
