Lobeck'e Talk to Pioneers.

The Lac qui Parle county fair at
Madison is entitled to the blue ribbon
amongst county fairs in the Seventh
Congressional District for the best at
tendance. On Thursday Senator E. E.
Lobeck, candidate for Congress,
Frank B. Kellogg, candidate for Unit
ed States Senator, and Congressman
A. J. Volstead were the speakers. 1t
was Pioneer Day at the fair and Sen
ator Lobeck told some very interest
ing things from the old pioneer days.
The Senator was only two and one
half years old when he came with his
parents from Norway. At that time
St. Cloud boosted the most north.
westerly railway station in North
America. The Lobecks settled at
Holmes City in Douglas county and
hauled their farm produce to St.
Cloud, about 80 miles distant. Later
the railroad came thru to Willmar
and that made the market place d
little closer, being Is miles. Then on
came the road to Benson, As miles
distant, then to Morris, 80 miles, and
finally to Alexandria, IA miles, and
Farwell, S miles.
1--WE knew Of no such luxury as I'm
derWear IN tnOSe early Gays, SAN
Senator Lobeck, land if anyone Of
you would like to know how nice ant
cool q pair Ct overalls are in the win
ter without any underwear just try
the experiment and test the whistlinf
breeze Of a nor'wester when it l!
about 30 degrees below Zero"
Senator Lobeck spent all da!
Thursday and all day Friday at tn
Madison fair meeting the Lac gu
Parle county farmers. Friday wa
Dawson day at the fair, and the Daw
son folks pinned a Dawson badge OF
the Senator as they said he woul'
get almost the solid vote in Dawson
and that it wasn't more than RICH
that he should carry the Dawsol
badge.
Lac qui Parle county will give
good plur" lily for Lobeck for Cor
gress in Observation-Disclosures.

dent tor not "vindicating the nations

dent tor not "vindicating the nations
lonor?" In this connection it is in
.eresttng to note what Joseph Choate
said In 1915, before the excitement OF
/ national campaign made it neces-
sary to misrepresent international
matters. Mr.. Choate, Minister to
england under Mckinley and Roose-
welt, wrote in the Review Of Reviews:
If we can maintain our neutrality
and keep out Of this war and at the
same time prove ourselves friendly to
all the nations engaged In it-as
think we shall under the wise and
prudent conduct Of President Wilson
the United States will, I believe,
not only be called into consultation
by the warning nations, when they
are no longer eble to keep up the
fight, but will practically be able to
dictate the terms of peace between
them, one Of which must, II possible,
De an effectual guarantee against any
future outbreak of the horrible spirit
It militarism which has caused the
present war.
And l am encouraged in this be-
lief by reading the recent message of
President Wilson and the annual re-
ports of the Secretaries of War and
| OF the Navy, which, taken together,
appear to show a steadfast determin-
alton on the part of our Federal Gov
| eminent to have us prepared always
for enectual self-defense, which is q
necessary condition of our national
existence.
"Of course, the end of this war will
see US by far the most powerful ma
ton in the world, and If the policy
pointed out by Secretary Daniels. is
pursued, we shall perhaps in the full.
ness Of time become ourselves the
mistress of the seas without INCUR.
ing hostility or attack from any ma.
ton, and shall be tho great factor OF
preserving universal peace"
Senator Nelson then goes on to
contend that all the constructive
measures passed under Wilson are
delusions and snares. The Federal
Reserve law has been securing credit
he said, for stopping panics which
should really belong to the Aldrich
Vreeland act of 1908, which was pass
ed soon after the panic Of 1907. While
this act expired by limitation June
80, 1914. month before the war up
set the world markets, the law which
succeeded it would have been worth
less without the provisions, which
were contained in the previous bill
he said. Well, how is anyone to tell
What the effect would have been II
Wall Street would have retained alb.
solute control over the bank re.
serves? We know what did happen
and 1t was q good thing that our
country escaped a financial smash
While standpat politicians refuse to
concede President Wilson any credit,
the people generally do. and that will
help some.
The labor laws passed will not
benefit labor, says Nelson. Even the
child labor law, which he voted for
himself, Is bad In his opinion express.

On the Western Border.

Senator Lobeck is meeting with
the heart1est response In all his long
and successful political career this
year, but especially 80 In the rural
districts. While at tho Big Stone
county fair at Clinton last week, the
farmers from a community about
fourteen miles west OF Clinton and
south Of Beardslcy insisted that the
Senator should come out there that
evening and make a speech. A meet
ing was hastily called for the Steph'
ney school house, and in the evening
the Lobeck campaigners found a
crowded house. Every man present
declared that he would vote for Lo-
beck for congress and some Of those
present made speeches urging their
neighbors to make it unanimous for
the Alexandria Senator In their part
Of the district.-1. M. Kalnes.

Common People With Him.

Senator Lobeck and Congressman
Volstead, rivals for congressional
honors, both attended the fair at Mad
ison. The congressman spent nearly
all his time with a select local com
mittee Of socalled local leaders, sell
dom shaking hands with any Of the
hoi polloi, while the senator seemed
to be just as we'll pleased to meet 9
farmer or a day laborer as the presi
dent of the First National. This was
commented upon by several people
who saw the two candidates and one
rugged farmer from near Dawson
said to Lobeck. Don't you worry OH
boy. There are more common PEG
pie than big bugs and our votes
count. "-Contrtbuted.

Having nothing else to say against
Senator Lobeck, the Volstead papers
are finding fault with him for speak

fault with his opponents II they would
speak as Lobeck speaks on Sundays.
