From "A Reader"

Every newspaper receives during
the course of a year its quota or
anonymous letters, which very prop
erly find their way, along with 9TH
er communications unworthy OF
notice, into the capacious waste bas-
ket that stands conveniently near
the editorial desk
Yesterdays mail brought The
Tribune such letter. signed "A
Reader" A careful perusal of the
wailful epistle leaves us rather in
doubt whether the writer's CHIEF
grievance is against this newspaper
or the base umpire of last Sun
days ball game. In language rath-
er more forcible than elegant The
scribe berates The Tribune for what
is considered it's partial and unfair
reports of base ball games, and
then proceeds tn attack the aforesaid
umpire, the fairness of whose
decisions he viciously challenges
all, he vehemently insists, in
the interests OF clean base ball
playing.
1t is quite generally conceded by
visiting ball teams as well as by
visitors on the Lynden diamond has
been universally fair and honorable.
AS to the decisions in sundays
game, this newspaper disclaims any
responsibility whatsoever, and mod
estly suggests that Blaine was repre-
scented by rather husky nine. sup
ported by goOdly bunch OF root
ers." and it is hardly conceivable
that they would snpinely submit 10
having an unfair decision put over
them. 1t is not their custom, and
although "A Rea der" asserts that
he never saw 'dirtier dirt given 40
any team" than WAS handed TO
Blaine. We have heard no word OF
protest from that organization re-
garding Sundays game.
That "A Reader" is not our old
familiar friend, Constant Reader"
is plain from the fact that he
charges The Tribune with telling
to publish reports of games in which
the local team is defeated, "by
Blaine, for instance" On Sunday,
May 3. Lynden lost to Blaine ind
in our issue of May Z, detailed
report OF the game appeared in Il
conspicuous place ON the front page.
No newspaper would refuse to re-
port q bali game for reason so
utterly silly.
We are disposed to think that "A
Reader" has we'll defined case of
Crouch for some personal reason
rather than wish to voice 3 gem
uine and we'll founded protest. Can
ii be ne raShly assumed that
Lynden had got the habit of losing
to Blaine, and so parted with some
of his perfectly good mazuma on
Sundays game? A poor loser and a
man who takes refuge behind an as
sumed name are of about the same
calibre.

More Law In End of
NIGHT Stick Than In
Penal Code

By Former Police Inspector ALEXANDER
S. WILLIAMS OF Flew York City
IT IS MUCH BETTER THAT A Po-
LIcEMAN BE HELD FOR MAN.
SLAUGHTER THAN TO HAVE A
CORONER HOLD AN INQUEST ON
HIM.
The police should be liberal in
the use of the club on such crea-
lures as the gun men and gangsters.
They are the WORST KIND OF
LOAFERS. They produce nothing,
care for nothing and are a LAW
LESS, COWARDLY LOT. The
law in the end of a night stick is
the law for them, and let me tell
YOU that there would not be one
case in a hundred where the cop
with the stick would be wrong.
STILL MAINTAIN AND REPEAT
THAT THERE Is MORE LAW IN
THE END OF A NIGHT STICK
THAN IN THE PENAL CODE.

The collection for Missionary
work amounted to SPOTS.
1t was a great pleasure to have
Miss Hazel lIcCullcch with us
again after a years absence.
Notwithstanding the threaten
ing weather the attendance at
the Children s Day program was
good. The exercises passed pleas
antly.
The subject for the sermon
Sunday evening will be national
in its nature. Mention will be
made cf some of the changes in
national affairs and some places
Of danger marked out. We will
try to make it interesting to
every citizen who may attend.
It is good news to us to know
that the citizens Of largo have
increased the endowment on
the Congregational College by a
donation of 100000. It was a
noble deed and reflects great
credit upon all concerned. Great
benefit will be realized by the
entire state. Investments made
in behalf Of our children are safe
investments.
During the year several fami-
lies have moved away and the
German Baptists have maintain
ed their Sunday school which has
taken out some that would other
wise attend our school, but the
attendance has been larger than

Principles or Prejudice

Principle applies to parties
and persons. 1he party is made
up Of many individuals and it's
acts repfesent the concrete and
composite thoughts and ideals Of
the many who compose it. The
PARTY which stands for a certain
principle and fights for it, iii the
campaign, ana goes on record as
favpring those ideas and ideals
best express the ideas of
the individuals, has nothing to
be ashamed Of even in defeat,
for the point from which its
members have reasoned may be
sound and true. A larger num-
ber of people composing another
party may have reasoned from a
different standpoint and have
had more followers.
When the matter has been de-
cided which idea. shall be the
dpminent one, for the time being
then the minority and the ma
jority should accept the in
eNitable and work tremendously
together for the betterment Of
conditions. Neither should for
get the ideals he held before the
decision was made, yet each one
should so far forget himself as
to enter in and try to blend the
best Of the two for the common
good.
This principle holds good in
business, as we'll as in politics.
Ii has it's place in the work Of
city government, as we'll as in
the family circle. When the peo-
pie who have many ideas in com
mon, and differ as to the carry
ing out Of those ideas, have met
and have settled their difference
in q fair and open contest (such
as the primary election just pas
sed) they should use their ut
most to carry through the ide;l
that are in the majority and for
which the whole party pledges it.

The nomination of Gen
Erastus A. Williams as a candi-
date for representative from Bur.

fact that he is the oldest men,

He entered the territorial legis

Moure, and has served many
terms with him up to the time
that that gentleman quit his leg
islative duties, in 1911.
Gen. Williams was a member
Of the Constitutional convention
and a member Of the first legisla-
thre, and at one time was a
speaker of the house. In fact,
he might be termed as the "dean
Of the house, The record is
a remarkable one and is a decid-
ed compliment to Gen. Williams.

L. Brekken called meeting Of
school officers of the county on
Friday, June 25. About seventy
five were present and enjoyed
the meetings held during the day
and evening.
DR.. G.. G. Forbes, mayor Of the
city -sof Washburn gave an ad-
dress of welcome. after the meet
ing had been opened with pray
er by Rev. d. D. Mitchell Of the
Congregational church.
Prof. T. A. Holverstad, agri-
cultural commissioner Of the 500
line, gave two talks upon taking
UP the study Of agriculture in
the schools and the cooperation
of the school officers with the
teachers in making success Of
it.
Prof. Willis johnson, presi-
dent Of the Glendale Industrial
School also gave two splendid
talks. His topic was on CON
solidation of schools. By dWd-
ing the grades amoug two or
three teachersit gives an oppor-
tunity to teach agriculture and
other higher subjects without rob
bing primary grades Of time
which rightly belongs to them.
1t was an interesting subject and
will cause many to think it over
and act later.

A round table discussion, in
which many joined, finished the
program. During the time the
subject of keeping school houses
; clean, was taken up. It was
thought. best, to have@the board
hire some one to scrub the floors,
polish the stoves and clean the
windows once month and not
ask the teacher to do this hard
work.

the legislature be asked to repeal
the law fixing the distance Tor
children to be taken to school
