The Milroy Echo in reporting a fistic
bout between two residents of Gales says
the "cause should be fettered out" Maybe
Max meant 'tethered out''-fastening a
cause at the end Of long rope might help
a bit; depending somewhat upon what the
other end of the rope was fastened to, of
course.
When it is the privilege of the people of
a county, state or nation to have real
leader, free from fads and fanacism, and
loyal, they would be criminally unwise to
make a change. That is why Governor
Burnquist will be returned to Office next
fall by that wonderful thing-an over
whelming majority.
With Knute Nelson and Frank Kellogg
in the United States senate, NJ nnesota
would at once take front rank as one of
the ablest represented states in the Union.

states that women require more sleep
than men. If any physician ever made
such statement it was because he was
bribed by some man who prefers that his
wife should not wait up to see what time
he gets home. A fruitless statement.
What woman wouldn't prefer to sacrifice
her health to lack Of s.eep, rather than to
have her husband put one over by coming
IN late and she know nothing about it.
The poet who wrote of the dandelion,
Dear common flower that growest beside
the way, frlnging the dusty road with
harmless gold' was either fit subject for
an insane asylum or he was overly fond of
wine and greens. The Harmless" part is
certainly stretching the point when one
remembers the hocrs of fruitless digging.

He was slouched down, his hat at a don't

Even with equal suffrage the woman
shouldn't forget that after all it is the
hand that rocks the cradle that really
rules the world."- Wabasso Standard.
Slush! Nobody with any pretense Of mod

is the hand that reaches out for a good

said chunk of work is thoroughly well
done. Believing exclusively in the "fock-

does make things more comfortable for
the men of the race, We'll admit.

presses his willingness to relinquish his
large private business and devote his en-
