BRITISH GRATITUDE!

We sent them arms and munitions,
As much as orr land could produce,
We sent horses and saddles
Till none are left for our use.
We sent them our choicest machine
guns,
We sent them gunners galore,
Sent ~aeroplanes, all we could muster
And flyers to make them soar.
These things we gave them on
credit
And loaned them our money to boot
Stayed unprepared on our borders
That they might have plenty to
shoot.
We cannot capture that bandit
That raided our border town,
Our bird-men all are in Europe
Shooting the Germans down.
Are the blooming British grateful
That we helped them beyond oul
might?
Hear them taunt their Friend
Woodrow Wilson
For being TO proud 10 fight
Common H, Sense.

II is an eternal nuisance,
This scrapping old Mexico1
Corruption and oppression
Confront you wherever you 80.
Not content with internal pollution
IL seatters its virus abpoadi
1t will not confine to its borders
Its anarchy and its fraud.
There are such neiFhbors in Europe
As Austria can explain,
Where admonitions and warnings
As well as threats are in vain.
Old Servia was such a quagmire
That all of the powers took note,
And gave her a solemn warning
To stop her from rocking the boat
Did she raid a border village
With the help Of a bandit crook !
She murdered the Austrian ruler
Which Is more than q people car
brook.
Austria sent protestations,
Appealed to the powers in vain,
Then determined to punish the
culprit,
spurning all thought Of gain.
We and the Allies objected
When Austria in her need
Fought for self preservation,
And called 1t a dastardly deed.
And what did we do with Villa,
When he raided a border town?
We issued no ultimatum
And sent our regiment down.
We were right, who dares deny It.
We struck an honest blow;
But what is wrong in Austria
Is right in Mexico.
Common II. Sense.

SMALL LEGISLATURE is URGED
Efficiency and Economy Commission
Proposes State School Board
Hearing Given on Drainage

St. Paul, Nov. 15.-Members of the
state efficiency and economy commits.
sion, it is said today, will urge the
next legislature to submit a consti-
tutional amendment limiting the leg
islature to SO senators and 100 repre-
sentatives.
The commission adopted rlan for
a single state board of education,
which will take over the present du-
ties of the state normal board. =
A resolution by C. II. Warner was
adopted, requiring all fees and earn
ings of state departments and insti-
tutions to be turned into the general
fund. Mr.. Warner. also wanted to
abolish the special ,sS mill levy for
the University of Minnesota, but this
feature was stricken from his resolu-
tion.
The commission gave a hearing on
the drainage plan eiIuorsed by the All
Minnesota Development association.
A. L. Croker, chairman of the asso-
cations drainage committee, present.
ed M. G. Barnes of New York, who
recommended a state department of
internal improvements.
Representatives G. H. Warner and
Thomas H. Girling were named a
committee to draw a bill extending
the budget system.

obtainable are consequently very sat
isfactory. While Mr.. Kendall has
been. offering $500 ton for the roots
just as they are pulled from the
ground, he is depending on his own
force: Of men for his main supply. He
has q, crew of men and teams on the
Gabrielson farm three miles west of
town, which is operated by Floyd Nor
ton, and here the yield has been ex-
ceptionally good. A five-tooth quack
grass digger, with from four to six
horses attached to it, is first used to
dislodge the roots, and the ground is
then thoroughly. gone over with a
Scotch chain drag that rolls the roots
up in punches, so that they may be
collected with a hay rake. Mr.. Ken
dali has also solved the problem of
hauling the roots to town by attach
ing a three box wagon to the rear of
his automobile. He has thus found it
possible to haul loads of roots weigh
ing from 5000 to 1880 pounds at a
much more rapid rate than could be
done with horses.-Luverne Herald.

COLD CASH FOR vUACK GRASS
Drug Manufacturers Want the Roots
of this Obnoxious Weed and
Will Pay Good Prices.

With force of from Is to 20 men,
women, girls and boys engaged in
picking over quack grass at the old
creamery south of the Omaha tracks,
and several other people and three
teams out in the country unear1hing
the obnoxious roots, w. c. Kendall is
building up an extensive business in
the sale of quack grass roots to drug
manufacturers, and at the same time
is doing much to rid some fam lands
that are badly infested with this form
of vegetation. At the present time Mr..
Kendall's pay roll exceeds 5000 a
week and he is. handling from five to
ten tons Of quack grass each week,
but, as the only portion OF the roots
that is salable is the white shoots or
tendrils that are attached to the main
root, there is a shrinkage Of, approx
imately four-fifths. Notwithstanding
this big shrinkage, number of the
pickers are making exceptionally good
wages. On the other hand there is a
demand for picked-over products far
in excess of the supply and the prices

CORN SHOW WILL BE SUCCESS
Second Annual Event to be Held in
st. Paul Dec. 11-16 Attracting
Wide Attention.

The featuring of exhibits from boy
corn growers of the Northwest will be
given special attention at the second
Annual First National Corn Show
which will be held in st. Paul, Decem-
Der 18th to 18th, inclusive. Advices
received by the management of this
project from corn producing boys,
State Club Leaders and County Az
riculturists, indicate that exhibits In
excess of the 500 entries received in
this class at the First National" show
which was held in ST. Paul last De-
cember will be greatly outnumbered.
Special space is being reserved for
the segregation of boys exhibits and
all publicity possible will be given to
show the important part the boys are
taking in the production of corn in
Wisconsin, Minnesota, North and
South Dakota, Montana, Washington,
Oregon and Idaho, the states includ-
ed in the Corn Show territory. Each of
these states have been divided into
districts in such a manner that boy
exhibitors will only have to compete.

trict will be beautiful engraved sill
yer loving cup; the second prize a
suitably engraved "Goldyn" bronze
loving cup. Each prize will be ac-
companied by an attractively engrav-
ed diploma. These loving cups will be

value as those awarded adult exhib-
itors.

garding the Second Annual First
National" Corn Show, and form of en-

NO CHANCE FOR HUGHES
All Democratic Electors Win Out in
California.

All Democratic Electors Win Out in
California.
San Francisco, Nov. 16.-Prediction
that the lowest Democratic elector in
California will run ahead of the high
est Republican electOr was made last
night by Democratic leaders after
watching the slowly augmenting re-
turns from county clerks.
"The difference will be about 600 in
favor of the Democrats said Sidney
M. Vanwyck, Jr., chairman of the
Democratic campaign committee.
Available returns were considered
in themselves not an index of the sit
uation, proportionately, because they
were smaller counties most of which
had given Wilson good majorities.
They showed the lowest Democrat
14,773 ahead of the highest Repub-
llcan, but nearly all the big counties
still were missing.
A gain of 435 votes for Wilson was
recorded in complete official returns
from 46 of the So counties in Califor-
MIA as tabulated by the United Press
yesterday.
One precinct in Los Angeles was
thrown out by the board of supervis-
ors because it's tally sheets showed
three more votes than were recorded
in the registration book. This precinct
was credited with 125 votes for
Hughes and 139 for Wilson, the re-
mainder being scattered.

NO CHANGES EXPECTED
Official Count Will Not Change Re-
suit in California.

San Francisco, Nov. 15.-Thirty-
three counties in California remained
to be heard from today in the official
canvass Of the presidential election
of Nov. 7. Early returns from five
counties made the difference between
the lowest democratic elector and the
highest republican elector 1881, the
lowest democrat having that major
ity.
Both parties admit that a big dis
crepancy would have to be found in
order to change the California result
and such discrepancy could come
from only the three most populous
counties of the state, San Francisco,
Los Angeles or Alameda.
The first days work in these coun-
ties disclosed only minor errors and
such errors as were found practically
offset each other.

of Dominican Friars was celebrated
here today at the Dominican college
in Brooklyn. The Three American
Cardinals, the Apostolic ( delegate,

The celebration, which will last a

of the official recognition of the

year-1216-Dominik Guman,
Spanish nobleman, founder of the
order, then residing in Toulouse, re-
ceived a letter from ms Sovereign
Pontiff praising Dominik and his lit

and immunities were then bestowed
on the order.

BIG INCREASE IN DRY BEL
Twenty-FOur Prohibition States Now
Have 154 Representatives in
Lower House.

Washington, Nov. 14.-If the voters
in the twenty-four dry states have
sent dry Congressman to Washington
the prohibitionists may be able to put
a constitutional amendment before
the people of the nation at some cleo
ton in the near future. The two dozen
dry states now have 154 congress
men mostly from the "arid" west
ern states who have recently Joined
hands with their brothers from the
solidly dry south in the electing of
a president.
The 154, however, is IA short of
the two-thirds majority necessary
to put a constitutional amendment
over, but it will be remembered that
the Hobson resolution received ma
jority two years ago when the total
number of desert states was seven
teen, and there are still number OF
congressman in the house from wet
states who supported the measure.
The senate now has just half of its
membership from dry territory. 1t
looks very much as if this body would
be controlled by the prohibition SEN
timent.
At any rate, Washington is due fol
it's first dry Inauguration day, prob
ably the first in the history OF the
country. A law became effective
March 4, 1913, the day President vii.
son was inaugurated, which prohibits
the sale of liquor in the District OF
Columbia on Sunday and the day OF
which presidents take their oath o.
office. AS March 4 falls on Sunda,
there will be two. dry days in sue
cession as the inaugural ceremome'
will not take place until March 5. i
will be extremely hard to flicker up,
at all as most of the state of Mary
land is already "boozeless" and V'r
ginia will become so on January first

IMPROVED DRAINAGE SYSTEM
All Minnesota Development Associa-
tho Will Take Up This Import
ant Question in January

Drainage and flood control, lack OF
which periodically costs the people
millions of dollars, will be put before
the people graphically and forcibly
as Minnesota's most urgent need in
any development plan, at the annual
meeting of the All Minnesota Devel-
opnent Association in St. Paul, in
January.
This was decided on at a meeting
of the program committee at the ST.
Paul Hotel, St. Paul, Friday evening,
November 8. Sitting with the COM
mittee were representative men from
various parts of the state who approx
ed the plan to emphasize drainage
and flood control as the big problem
in the development of the state.
Other subjects on the program,
however, probably will be:
Highway construction-in co-opera-
ton with the federal government.
The extension OF high school
courses to include university work.
Possible changes m the system of
taxation.
A law to govern che use of the
$250,OO0 provided for by Amendment
No. 1, if the amendment has carried.
1t was the sense of those present
that the association should center its
attention upon not more than very
few urgent needs. And in order to
unite the various elements in the
state, the associations committee on
utilization with other organizations
should make thorough canvass tc
secure general cooperation. E. C.
Higbie Of Morris, resigned as chair
man of this committee, and A. 3.
Kaercher of Ortonville was elected in
his place, with w. P. Kirkwood as
secretary.
Present at the meeting were: Eli
S. Warner, st. Paul; A. F. Woods, st.
Paul; E. C. Higbie, Morris; L. B. Ar
mold, Duluth; Richard R. Price, Min
neapolis; w. P. Kirkwood, St. Paul /;

HUGHES LEAD CHOPPED
Collection of Returns Cuts Republican
Candidates Plurality to 267

ST.. Paul, Nov. 16.-Hughes is still
leading in Minnesota by a margin Of
267 votes, after a seesaw due to cor
rections Of unofficial returns first
raised Hughes from 32I to 1,O86 and
then cut him down selow the figure
where the fluctuations started. The to-
tails today stand: Wilson, 1919;
Hughes, 179,416.
Aitkin and Renville county official
returns cut the Hugaes lead today.
Aitkin gives Wilson 877 and Hughes
1,124, while Renville gives Wilson
LEGO and Hughes 2,432.
Nearly all returns are now in, and
the only uncertain factor is changes
which official returns may make on
counties yet to report.
Frank B. Kellogg is leading Dan w.
Lawler almost two to one for United
States senator. Partial returns give
Kellogg 1922 and Lawler 1850.
