DREAMLAND.

Dreamland's first Metro picture will
be shown on Thursday of this week,
when Harold Lockwood and May Ali
son will be seen in THE River of RO-
nance" The picture provides wealth
OF adventure tor these popular artists,
with much bright, clean humor as we'll.
The scenes are laid among the Thou
sand Islands of the St. Lawrence river,
the beauty spot or North America. The
hero, millionaire, starts out to make
some money on his own account, and
goes in his one cylinder motor boat. A
dainty society girl from New York ar
rl.es on the scene, and thru her knoWl-
edge Of engines, is able to save SANS
nae. He carries the girl away in true
cave-man style before divulging his
identity.
Most everyone has read 1.-The Vir-
ginian,' and all will be glad of a
chance to see the picturizat ton of Owen
Wister,s famous book. The picture,
with Dustin Farnum in the title role
will be shown on Friday at Dreamland.
There is plenty of action all the way
thru and the scenic effects are great.
The picture is described as being a liV-
ing fiction monument to the west that
was. Farnum is supported by a very
capable cast.
On Saturday the first screen appear

ture is THE Phantom Fortunes" and

Congressman Charles A. Lindbergh,
realizin" that the Especial Interests
ers are determined to foist an Inter
est man on the people at any cost, is
throwing himself into the fight to elect
Senate. Mr.. Kellogg has always school
ed with big business and has been &C
lively engaged as an attorney for the
Steel Interests. His part in the So
called dissolution Of the Standard Oh
Company ought to be enough to bar him
as a peoples candidate. After he won

upon him as the winning attorney to
write the decree of dissolution, and in

The Standard ring controlled a majority
OF the stock in the original combina-

hands of the ring to fix prices S, in all OF

The purpose of the government III
bringing the suit was to restore genu-
inc competition thereby reducing the
price of products and causing the stock
rated at the inflated rate of $500 to re-
cede to par at 800. Mr.. Kellogg had
the opportunity to write a genuine de-
cree of dissolution, which undoubtedly
would have brought this about In place
of that, he introduced the joker and

Northern railway is widening the cuts

voIsTEAD'S RECORD.

VIII the record of Congressman Vol
stead pass thru the ordeal and heat or
a campaign unscathed? We have al
WAYS credited him with good intentions,
even If his views have not always CO.
incided with ours. Representative
Spooner of Morris, one of the leading
Republicans of the District, in start
ling statement in another column,
comes out against Volstead and accuses
him of attempting to take credit for
something to which he Is in no way en-
titled He claims that Volstead oppos-
ed the establishment of the Morris
School of Agriculture for which he has
claimed credit in statements published
turnout the district. Mr.. Spooner's
statements are such that they may be
easily proven or disproven by public
records, and it will be interesting to
see how Congressman Volstead will
meet them.
Spooners challenge suggests to us
this thought. If Congressman Volstead
is not entitled to credit for the one lone
thing which most concerns this DIS
trict cited by himself in his statement
what are his claims worth when he
states that he has accomplished so
much general legislation in which so
many more able men in Congress have
been interested?
Then, in the case Of the drainage Dill
which bears his name. Was that drawn
entirely in the interest of the settlers
and the State? We have been told by
travellers that there is general dissat-
isfaction in Northern Minnesota with
provisions in the bill, by which the set
tier may lose his land in three months
if default is made in payments. BE
that as it may, is it not little dissap-
pointing that he has been unable to dc
anything for the drainage of his own
district, which has quite as much low
land needing adequate outlets as any
like area in Northern Minnesota. Ger
tain editors in the western part of the
district are urging Volstead's re-elec.
ton on the ground that he has by rea-
son of his long tenure of Office now fin
ally attained a position where he can
do something on the drainage question
What he has done in fourteen years In
Congress is more convincing than are
promises made by henchmen in the
heat of campaign.
Since Senator Lobeck has made his
winning campaign throughout the dis
trict and it becomes apparent that Vol
stead's hitherto charmed-~hold on the
Congressional seat is about to become
relinQuisheu, many things come out
that have not been made public before.
We were told by a prominent citizen
the other day that there is much dis
satisfaction in Congressman Volstead's
home community over his failure to do
anything for improving the Minnesota
river. This criticism may or may not
be warranted, we do not know. Con-
gressmen are sometimes asked to do
impossible things. But our information
is that it will make very much differ
ence in the vote he will receive in his
home county.
Another suggestion comes from the
interesting revelation by Mr.. Spooner.
II the House of Representatives passed
q local bill like the Morris School bill
over the local congressman's head, does
that indicate any great standing or in

DO you WANT PEACE OR WAR?


Speaking ut Battle Creek Mich. Sep

said:
~ have been asked what would
have done had ! been President when
the Lusitana was torpedocd.
~ would have instantly taken pos
session Of every German ship informed
in this country and then I Won d have
said: Now we'll discuss, not what
we will give, but what we will give
back"
THAT WOULD HAVE MEANT
WAR!
1t would have been challenge to
the German nation to a trial at arms.
1t would have been n violation Of eV-
cry principle of neutrality. and ut a
time, with all Europe under arms,
when this country was the trustee Of

German interned ships by Portugal
was regarded as All act of war and
was followed by an immediate dec

Portugal.

From their public statements the
conclusion is inevitable that if either

we would have instant war with Ger
