last year of his last term. There have
been unconfirmed rumors that She

that he was plunging with view to

course this is merely surmise.
The Brogart report is said to give
much credit to Fred M. Coleman for
unearthing the additional shortage.
He was of course able to trace all the
transactions and pointed out to the
expert how all the Juggling was done,

way possible. He is asking for par

LOYALTY TO
HOME TOWN
(By c. HI. Plattenburg)
Continued from last week }

To show you the injury being
done to our small towns, by mail
order houses, | cite you a case
that came under my personal OBJ
servation. About six years ago,
visited a village of about seven
hundred people located in one of
the richest agricultural sections
of Iowa. The town was happy
and prosperous. There were
three general merchandise stores
carrying from ten to thirty thou
sand dollars worth of stock each,
two restaurants, a nice little
hotel, a schoolhouse with seven
teachers, three churches and
three preachers living in the
town. Last winter | visited the
same town, | never saw such a
change in my life. One half the
store buildings were empty. In
stead of having three general
stores, they had only one,-a
dinky store of four or five thou
sand dollars. The hotel was
closed down. Instead of having
seven school teachers, they had
only two, and there wasn't a
preacher left in the town. If
there is anything that will starve
a preacher to death it is Sears &
Roebuck. If there is a preacher
in this audience this afternoon, ]
want him to stand up and tell us
how many overcoats Sears Il Roe
buck ever gave him for Christ.

shirtwaist and the petticoat and
declared them all good and said
we believe that we will send to
Chicago for our goods. They did
so. 1t became a fad in this COM
munity and the result is one-half
the store buildings are empty.
They have two school teachers
instead of seven and not a
preacher living in the town. =
And my cashier friend said:
"Plattenburg, we have the best
farm land in Iowa around our
town and yet it is worth from
ten to fifteen dollars an acre less
than around the town IL miles
west of us. Last year, he con-
tinued, that same woman came
into this bank and said she
wanted to talk with me. invit-
ed her back into the directors
room, she sat down and
buried her face in her hands and
began to sob as though her heart
would break. ! asked her what
was the matter and she replied:
my heart is broken. Last year
John left me and went to st.
Louis and last night Henry left
for Chicago. He was tired of
farming and / tried to persuade
him to buy the corner drug store
here in town but he said this
town was dead and a man couldn't
make an honest living in it.
The cashier replied: Madam
you are partly responsible. 1ou
helped to make the corner drug
store Improbable; you destroyed
the only opportunity for your
boy at home and forced him tc

story" About six or seven
years ago rich widow woman
living about a mile and a half
from town, whose two sons
worked on the farm for her and
who was happy and prosperous
and contented received a cata-
logue from a mail order house in
Chicago. In it she read how the
local merchant had been robbing
her and how much better she
could do in Chicago than at home.
She sent an order to the mail
order house and in a few days
the goods came and she was very
much satisfied with them. The
day after they came, the Metho-
dist Aid society of the eommuni-

PROPOSES CUT I'M LECISL.A.
TURE.

AT the session of the Efficiency
and Economy Commission De-
cember 13, Representative g. n.
Warner will introduce q resolu-
ton recommending the submis-'
sion Of q constitutional amend
ment limiting the membership of
the House to eighty and that Of
the Senate to forty.
The present membership of the
House Is 130 and of the Senate
sixty-seven.
Both legislative chambers are
overcrowded, and there has been
much complaint on the part Of
both members and their con-
stituents that the Minnesota
Legislative body Is altogether too
large and too unwieldy for the
best work.
There is some justice in this
complaint" said Mr.. Warner.
THE membership is too large.
Better work would be done by
smaller bodies. II
Besides, | believe, without
criticism Of the present member
ship, that If each member repre-
sented a larger district and more
people, we would, as q rule, get 4
better class Of men. With larger
districts and more responsibility,
there would be more inducement
for big men to file for the Legis-
lature, because there would be
more honor in the position. :
