the house, but pledged his best eff
forts, when the amendment is sub
mitted, toward inducing the people
of the state to adopt it.
Also, Mr.. Preus. stated that he was
in favor of a further amendment to
the Constitution that would permit
settlers to locate on state land and
to pay for It after they have had q
chance to establish themselves there
and made a home.
Now, all state land must be sold
at public auction, so the settler must
not only pay for his land and pay
the taxes on it, but must let the state
keep the mineral rights and must
buy outright the timber that may be
left upon the land, before he can APP
ply grubhook. 80.
Mr.. Preus suggested that the bill
might be limited to state school land,
and not be made to apply to swamp
land, as it was plainly evident that it
would be impossible to make the re-
quired improvements on swamp lands.
However, it developed that a good
deal of the school land is also swamp,
so nothing came of this suggestion.
Frank S. Lang of International
Falls appeared before the committee
and made an effective talk against
the bill. -.

"sauce for the Gander!"

It is odd that nobody up to this time
thought Of the idea involved in the
bill introduced by Representative
Moroney a few days ago. Moroney's
bill provides that when the State Of
Missouri votes on the liquor question
the entire State shall be controlled by
the verdict.
In other words, if question of Ii
cense or no license comes up, and the
license voters win, all other laws will
be held to be in conflict with the new
law and the entire State will be under
the license system. On the other
hand, If the license people lose, all
licenses in the State, both as to wet
and dry counties, will be wiped out.
This is as it should be. If the ma
jority wants no license State, let the
majority have its desire. If, on the
other hahd, the majority wants gen.
eral, license system, let the license
system prevail in every county, local
option or no local option. License
means law. No regulation means
bootlegging, secret drinking, boys
with their private bottles and old soaks
in the home. The saloon is bad
enough under strict police regulation,
but the blind tiger and the bootlegger
are worse, whether the town be large
or email.

Now the IA O'clock Bill.

a Il .a Is
The 8 O'Clock closing bill has be-
come an II O'Clock closing bill, and,
fortified against submission to the
people Of the State by a referendum,
it has gone to engrossment at Jeffer-
son City. From the point of view Of
the vets, this legislation is obnoxious,
of course; it is strange that the drys
do not see that from the standpoint of
the advancement of their cause 1t Is
altogether futile. The county unit
bill, while the liquor men opposed it,
was a clean -cut measure, aiming at
an end which every liquor man could
see was we'll worth while, from the
point of view of the drys. The pres
ent bill is merely nagging measure.
Without adding q single inch to the
dry territory Of the State, it would
cause great deal Of irritation, incon-
venience and bad blood. Why should
strength and effort be wasted in be-
half OF merely irritant Legislation
which can have no permanent effect?
And how can set Of men whose basic
plank is respect for the popular will
ssget their own consent'' to head of
the referendum?n-- st. Louis Republic

Winter back again.
Several of our young people attend
ed the entertainment given by the
Cedar Grove school last week. The
dialogues and recitations were good.
Mrs. Rose Birch who has been al
most bedfast for three or four months
is slowly improving.
Five of our Industrious school
teachers are going to Ironton to take
the examination given this week. I
think they will have to rush to get
schools, or be found without one.
The Washington county teachers still
seem to pour in; must be because we
have Democrat Superintendent, or
let's guess. The teachers reading
circle has been quite success. They
met at the schoolhouse and enjoyed
themselves very much, by reci6ing
their lessons, and discussing Woman
Suffrage.
The Rev. Oscar Taylor from Des
Arc preached at Pleasant Valley Sat
urday night. The sermon was enjoy
ed by the people.
Our school closed last Saturday af-
ter seven months continuance with
Miss Lena Kammholtz as teacher. But
two of the eighth grade pupils will
take the eighth grade examination.

How the War Winn ows.

just off the southern shore of New
foundland lie the islands of st. Pierre
and Miquelon rather pathetic ves-
tiges OF the broad domain France
hoped to possess on this Western
Continent.
The simple folk in this retired colony
have been asked to send 800 men to
the war. When the physical examina-
tions were over, the officers found
that just 800 men were fit for service.
These chosen men, the very pick Of
the colony, its best hope for growth
and betterment through generations
to come, are now at sea on their way
to the front. Before them is desper-
ate service for their mother country;
behind they leave the chaff and riff
raft from which they were winnowed.
Should they return to their homes,
nine in ten will bring the physical and
moral injuries that war inflicts.
This instance Of destructive selec-
tion takes our attention because it
comes close to our own shores. We
should remember that through the
villages and towns and cities of al
most all Europe the same process is at
work.
The war is gnawing at the vitals OF
the races IKE the vulture that tortur-
ed Prometheus.
