PARENTS ARE WARNED OF DAN
GER FROM KITCHEN FIRES.

This is the season of the year most
fatal to children. Not from a sanitary
point of view, as the doctors would
say, but from carelessness in manag-
ing the household heaters and the
kitchen range says Robert w. Harga-
dine, state fire marshal.
Recent reports received by the fire
marshars department from investiga-
ton Of fires show that several child
rem have lost their lives by being left
alone in the house by parents.
In many agricultural communities.
where both parents and all other adult
members of the family are absent the
small children left alone in the house
have played with the fire in the kitch-
en- range, and in most cases fatalities
have resulted.
In one case in Roseau county, the
father and mother left two small child
rem in the house. They played with the
fire with the result that both were
burned to death and the entire dwelling
destroyed.
Do not take chances. Arrange mat
tiers so that small children are not left
alone in the house or in room where
they can play with fire. BY observing
little caution, many families will be
spared the heart-rendering experience
of having their little ones burned to
death.

BOUNTY GRAIN AND LIVE STOCK
GROWERS CONVENTION ITEMS.

Congressman George NJ Young,
Treasurer of the United States, John
Burke. and E. NJ. Mcmahon. General
Secretary of the St. Paul Association of
sible during the past week to pursuade
President Wilson to visit St. Paul on
December 9Th and deliver the princi-
pal address at the dedication Of the
Farmers Terminal Elevator. After
consulting with Mr.. Tumulty, Mr..
Young and Mr.. Burleson, the President
decided that owing to the fact that he
sage to Congress about that time, 1t
would be impossible for him to accept
the invitation of the farmers of the
Northwest.
Lynn J. Frazier. Governor Elect Of
North Dakota will attend the Equity
Grain and Livestock Growers conven-
ton and celebrate at st. Paul on De-
cember 5th and will deliver address
on the afternoon Of that day. Mr..
Frazier is the farmer that has been
elected governor of North Dakota by
the Organized Farmers Of that state
and many Minnesota farmers will take
keen interest in every thing that ne
will have to say on this occasion. 1t
is expected that Mr.. Frazier will face
one of the largest audiences of the Con-
vention as there is so much interest
shown on the part of Minnesota farm
ers in the work of the Non Partisan
League which elected Mr.. Frazier, gov
ernor of North Dakota. Every Mime
sofa, South Dakota, and Montana far
mer should turn out and near Cover
casiOn.
Chas. j. Brand, Chief Of the United
States Department of Agriculture at
Washington, D. C.. has accepted the in
vitation to address the farmers at their
Convention in st. Paul on December Z.
Mr.. Brand is one of the big men of the
country and has complete charge of the
Office of aMrkets and Rural OrganiZa-
lions in the United. States Department
of Agriculture. His subject will be 1.-THE
United States Department Of Agricul-
ture and the Marketing Problem" and
every farmer in the Northwest that can
possibly reach st. Paul on December
should hear this address.
The United States Department Of Az
riculture at Washington, D. c. are
sending to st. Paul on December 9Th,
their expert on the marketing Of live
stock and meats. He is Louis D. Hall,
a gentleman that has given the market
ing of live stock and meats, years Of
study and has had charge of this De-
rpartment for the United States Govern.
ment for some time past
It is hoped that every Live Stock
Shipping Association in the state of
Minnesota will be we'll represented on
the afternoon of December 5th. 1t is
also hoped that every farmer that is
a producer Of stock for the South St.
Paul market will be present and hear
this address. 1t will be we'll worth
hearing and anyone interested in the
marketing Of live stock should try to
hear Louis D. Hall.

Complete success attended the efforts
of the North Dakota Nonpartisan
league in Tuesdays election. The far
mers elected their candidate for COVER
nor and other state officers, and won
complete control of a legislature pledg-
ed to enact their program into law. The
principal purpose of the organization is
to obtain appropriations for the con-
struction of state-owned terminal grain
elevators and packing plants.
Refusal of former legislatures to
grant what majority of the voters of
North Dakota clearly desired was re-
sponsible for the organized revolt of
mands either went unheeded or were
evaded on fimsy pretexts, until, de-
spatring of getting any help from the
professional politicians who make
North Dakota their habitat, the farm
ers finally formed the Equity Cooper
alive exchange opened their st. Paul
Office, built their local elevator, and
as political adjunct.
They swept the state at the spring
primaries, took control of the Repub-
lican party and wrote q state-owner-
ship Of elevators pledge in it's plat
form; repeated their victory at last
Tuesdays election; and now have CON-
plete political control Of the state. As

kota's professional politicians are in
private life, while their places are be-
ing occupied by sturdy farmers who
know exactly what they want and pro-
pose to get it without further delay.
Moreover, the movement is spreading
to adjoining states. The re-actionary
stupidity of North Dakota's politicians
was the cause Of starting something
that will be hard to stop.
It clearly is a case Of concertad nnlit-
ical action, being based upon a class
conscious desire for material benefits.
This is its startling significance. The
fact that the farmers in North Dakota
may be said virtually to constitute the
entire state does not alter this fact.
Most politicians have allowed economic
determinism to shape their professional
duties: but the frank acceptance Of this
same principle by a large class Of the
electorate puts a vastly different COM
plexion upon affairs.-St. Paul Dis
patch.

Game Warden Busy.

Deputy Game Warden Ernest Olson
Of Willmar was here Tuesday to inves-

that VIM. and John Best were hunting
muskrats out of season. Mr.. Olson
made a thorough search of the prem

an arrest as only a few skunk skins

and of course had a right to be. Parties
who make these complaints should have
absolute knowledge before doing So.
The warden went from here through

FEDERAL ROAD BUILDING.

The Bankhead good roads bill pass

IRE, better than the corresponding
house bill because it goes further. 1t
establishes the new policy of govern.
ment cooperation with the states in
the building of highways. And since
cooperation of state governments
with local communities has already
been inaugurated in more than half
the states. and may soon be adopted
in the rest. it opens the way to indi.
rect cooperation of the government
with all communities throughout the
country.
II provides an appropriation of $685.
100000 to be spent on post roads, con.

the various states. The money is to
be distributed over five-year period.
beginning with s5,000,OO0 made avail
able the year ending June 80, 1917,
and the amount increasing every year
until 1921. Thus there is provision
for gradual and natural extension Of
federal and state partnership. When
this first experimental period is end
ed, new arrangement can be made,
providing for a larger appropriation
If experience warrants it.
The sum now contemplated. liberal
as 1t is in comparison with the past
niggardly federal policy, is of course
small compared with the needs of our
vast new country, and compared with
the expenditures of other countries
on public highways. The average
yearly sum provided for the period,
$17,0O0,000. is less than one-fifteenth
Of all the money now spent on Ameri-
can roads-and the total, as every.
body knows, is little enough.
The rights of the states are care.

Not only can no state draw money
from the federal treasury without
spending an equivalent amount itself
but the ratio in which federal funds
are to be distributed among eligible
states Is determined by a fair meth

By vote of 10 to 8, the sub-com.
mittee recommended the elimination
from the Eook of Discipline OF the
clause prohibiting these amusements
and offered as substitute an add
tional paragraph in which warning is
made against the diversions. The ef-

STUDYING YOUR CITY.

Lincoln Steffens, in his heyday az
a municipal authority, once charac
terized Cincinnati as the worst gov.
erned city in the United States
And he explained its notorious mis-
government as due to its lack Of civic
spirit.
Eut there seems TO be a new Gin
cinnati The best evidence of it is
found in 240-page volume, called,
"The Citizens Book prepared by
public spirited Cincinnatians, paid for
by Cincinnati money, and-what is
far more significant-intended as a
textbook for use in the Cincinnati
public schools.
This book tells all that an intelli.
gent and loyal citizen may reason.
ably want to know about the histori-
cal development OF the city, it's gov
eminent, its activities in behalf Of
public health, education and general
welfare, it's industris, its resources,
its advantages and opportunities. All
these things the juvenile Cincinnatian
OF the future will be expectd to know
as he knows his American history
dates and the multiplication table.
The idea isn't original with Cincin-
natl. 1t appears to have originated
in New Orleans, where ii has already
borne admirable fruit. Why should
not every city in America that has
any civic spirit and pride do the same
thing? IT may not be necessary, at
least in small cities, to compile text,
books; but whatever the form or
method, some such instruction ought
to be given in the public schools.
