REV. DELk DISMISSED.
Child, Charged to Him, Is Safely in a

The Rev. James L. Delk, itinerant
evangelist, was discharged from GUS
today this morning when Judge Hugh
Fisher sustained the motion of the
county attorney to dismiss the case for
which he was called for trial from
Colorado two weeks ago. Rad Lee,
assistant county attorney, advised the
court that the infant child whose
paternity was charged to Delk has
been placed in a desirable home by
the managers of Crittenton home of
this city.
Inasmuch as the action against
Delk was a civil proceeding brought
in the name of the state to compel
Delk to support the child, Lee said
that the state did not desire to re-
move the infant from its new home
for the sake of compelling its father
to care for it.

THE NATIONAL ISSUE

Word has been received in Demo-
cratic circles that the issue of the ma
tional campaign must be the support
of President Wilson in his foreign
policy in troublous times past and the
troublous times to come.
This is the most arrant nonsense.
There never has been, there is not now
and never will be but one foreign pol
icy in this country and that is "stand
by the administration" The public
man who will rock the boat, in time
of international complications, for po-
litical effect is a demagogue and a
shyster instead of statesman. In
foreign complications the people have
ever backed the government and the
politics of the President cut no more
figure than the color of his eyes or
hair.
At the outbreak of the Spanish
American War we saw an extraordi-
nary credit of $500,000,000 voted
President Mckinley in five minutes
without roll-call by unanimous ris-
ing vote, and "Rebel" Joe Wheeler
led the cheers over the result, screech-
ing like an Injun and waving his arms
like a mailman.
In the foreign affairs of a nation
which will be beset with grave dan
gers during the next five years, the
American people will back the adj
ministration; never doubt of that. AS
far as foreign affairs are concerned
we can wipe that off the slate as an
issue.
The real issue is whether Demo
cratic legislation, administration and
policies will be better for the domestic
affairs of the people than will that of
the Republican party. That is the
only thing to decide and any attempt
to make any other issue is pure bunk.
Domestic policies are always an is
sue in the United States, foreign pol
icies never.

Mahnomen Pioneer: 1.-The Greater
Minnesota Edition" of the Sank Cen
ire Herald issued last week was one
of the finest pieces of work ever put
out in a country print shop in Mime
sofa. 1t doubtful if it was ever sur
passed. And not alone for it's mechan-
ical perfection is it noteworthy. The
editor, Asa M. Wallace, is assisted by
as associate and the two of them have
produced an issue that for historical
interest, not only to Sank Centre and
Stearns county, but to the State of
Minnesota, will not be equalled by any
similar publication for years to come.

St. Paul, Mimi, Nov. 3, 1913.
NY dear Asa: Congratulations to
you, Frank Eddy and your entire staff

is quite the most artistic of any thus
far received, from a mechanical stand
point, while it's literary merits speak
eloquently for themselves. For your
very generous showing of the work of
the school all of US are deeply appre-
ciative. I hope you made good thing
financially out of the edition. Sincere
ly yours Ralph w. Wheelock, member

Sank Centre is Some Town.

Brooten Review: The Sank Centre
Herald of last week was an edition
that the publisher, Asa M. Wallace, can
well feel proud 1t was a forty page
Minnesota Booster Edition and con-
tanned beautiful half tone cuts of Sank
Centre business firms and heads Of
firms. The paper which the Herald is
printed on was good and the print
clear. In looking over the pages of
the Herald one is led to believe that
Sank Centre is some town and we
congratulate Bro. Wallace and the
Herald staff on getting out such a
splendid and interesting edition.

Herald" was issued by the publisher
of the Herald last week which is
credit to all concerned in it's publica
ton. It is printed on book paper in
pages of matter. Much of it relates to
the entire state while considerable
portion is devoted to the special in
terests of Stearns county and Sank
Centre. The edition abounds in we'll
written articles embellished with the
finest of cuts-many of them home cit
liens who have attained some height
on the ladder of fame.
The Greater Edition" is a fine mon
ument to the ability and enterprise
which characterize its promoters and
adds fresh laurel sprigs to the garland
of their achievements.

sauk Centre should Feel Proud.

Park Rapids Journal: The Greater
Minnesota Edition of the Sank Centre
Herald" published in the agricultural
garden spot of Minnesota by Asa M.
Wallace, reached this office Friday and
after a careful perusal has been safely
tucked away among our most valuable
assets. We consider this edition, along
with the Wadena Journal, as two of
the most original editions published
during the publicity campaign for the
great state of Minnesota. The make
up of the Herald is worthy of special
mention from a printers standpoint
and it's columns TEEN with good stuff
about the bread and butter state. The
people of Sank Centre should feel
proud of this edition. We do.
