i The Askov base bali team goes
to Finlayson Sunday to play with

In spite of the rainy and dis
agreeable weather Saturday even
ing the County Option speakers
were greeted with a full house.
The first speaker was Rev. Voris
of Hinckley, who spoke in a clear
and concise manner giving fig
ures to prove that the liquor traf-
| fic is detriment to the county,
commercially and otherwise.
Mr.. Harte of Pine City, spoke
next and it was evident that he
is in earnest in this campaign.
Mr.. Christianson, the big Nor
wegian from Hinckley, was the
last speaker. He is good bust
ness man and knows what he is
talking about. He pointed out
that all our neighboring counties
who have voted on the question
have gone dry and it would be a
bad thing for Pine County should
it remain wet, as the floating
population which usually hangs
around the saloons would then
/, come to Pine. Mr.. Christensen
was not arguing prohibition. 1t
is the American saloon that he is
down on. Ever since Mr.. Christ
ianson came to Hinckley he has
been one of the hardest workers
to rid that village of its saloon,
and finally succeeded. and now
he is just as eager to rid the
whole county of its booze joints.
The speaking was interspersed
with music by the band.

PROBE SANITY OF

CHICAGO. Jan. 14-Affairs of Rev.
James Morrison Darnell, marital and
otherwise, were promised an un-
scrambling before a lunacy commits
sion today in the belief that the Sc
cret of his many alliances might be
found in a disordered brain.
An examination into the mental
condition of the pastor was urged by
officials of the western Unitarian con-
ference. 1t is possible that the trus-
tees of the KenOsha church from
which Mr. Darnell fled at the gather
ing of wives will begin the action ask
ing for a formal inquiry as to his
sanity.
The trustees have already inter
viewed Rev. John Wesley Carter of

Darnell to the Kenosha pastOrate.

FLOOD WATERS CARRY OUT

PARIS. Jan 14.-Flood waters of the

bridges thrown across the stream east
Of Nregny by the French troops, and
