IS
 EXPECTED TO
 ATTEND DANCE

First in the hearts of the citizens. at all times. and particularly when the dread announcement Is made of Fire"
 The above was spoken by a we'll known Juneau merchant this morning when he purchased five tickets for the annual ball to be given by the boys of the volunteer fire department next Saturday night
 This sentiment seems to be shared by merchants as well as the ordinary citizen. that the fire boys are first to be thought of. At all hours of the day and in those creepy hours of night the fire department lads sleep with both ears ready to- catch the first sound of the warning which tells them the time of duty has arrived. They are first in everything, and first with the first aid
 The tickets for the ball are going well but there has been little apathy on the part of many to wait until the last hours before purchasing. It is a toregone conclusion that everybody will "buy" but the boys want to make the best of reports at the special meeting to be held tomorrow night.
 Everything that can be done to make the night thoroughly enjoyable is being accomplished. There will be easy rooms for the ladies. the floor will be the best ever and the music, none better could be secured.
 It is reported that many elaborate toHettcs will be shown by the fair sex Saturday night but whether in silks or satins. calico or gingham, there will be no distinction and a good time is bound to be the outcome.

A SCATHING INDICTMENT

Senator Clapp, of this state, played
politics. He voted to turn down Pres
ldent Wilson at very important time
So did one w. ]. Bryan by his resig-
nation some months ago. We then
paid our respects to Mr.. Bryan. We
unhesitatingly say now that we think
less of Senator Clapp than we do even
OF Bryan. Solid old knute Nelson,
senator from Minnesota, is not trait
or to the country, in its hour of need.
He is not asking whether Wilson is a
democrat or a republican. He is fol-
the United States, in it's hour of need.
and Woodrow Wilson right or wrong,
is president. Mr.. CIapp, you are in
the class of a few. You have found
the level of the congressman from this
district. We would be delighted to
see the right man oppose you for re-
election, but will support anyone
against you. The News is for the
United States, first and last. 1t has
no time for officials who are with the
enemies of this country. It believes
that they should resign, if they are
honest, but Mr.. Clapp, like Mr.. Davis,
loves the meal ticket.-LeSueur News.

country says:
"The Frank Rich Company opened
two weeks engagement at the Ma
tiOnal theatre yesterday to crowded
houses and was well received. The
interpolated songs are of the whistling
kind and we'll sung. The comedy is
of the sort that permits one to laugh
easily and without effort and there is
a tangible plot" Oregon Journal
Portland, Ore.
There is a punch in the musical
production at the National this week
From the opening number to the drop
of the curtain everything went like
clockwork. There was a snap to the
dancing, a vigor in the singing and a
general up-to-dateness about every
thing that the big audiences evidently
liked" Portland, Ore, News.
"The Frank Rich Company scored a
big hit. The company is the best OF
it's kind that has ever been in Helena
The Rich company scores again. That

commenting on Mr.. Dubois Hines:
Bro. Dare says in the last issue of the

DR.. Dubois, one of Minnesota's
biggest Observation-Disclosures,
has been near deaths door at his
Sank Centre home, and the cOun-
try press of Northern Minnesota,
which knows him almost as
brother, is praying for his recov-
cry even in the face of the Bibli-
cal injunction that "the prayers
of the wicked availeth nothing"
Here's one instance where we
earnestly hope that the power of
the press prevails.

lone representative from Mime
sofa, did their utmost to thwart
the wishes of their leader and
thus serve notice on the Euro
pean powers that the congress
and people were not back Of their
president. Republican statesman
ship is big and broad enough to
support the president Loyalty in a
crisis.-Sauk Centre Herald.
True; quite true. But did you no.
tice, Bro. Wallace, how lamentably
short Minnesota was on craftsmanship
among its Republican representatives
in Washington? Minnesota had just
one statesman-just one representa-
tive out of twelve in congress who put
patriotism above politics.
This, however, is not so serious as
it appears on the face. Fortunately
the standing and influence of that one
man is so much higher and greater
than that of the eleven others COM
bined as to redeem the state from the
ignominy that might otherwise have
resulted.
Senator Knute Nelson stands out
man among men, a patriot among pa
triots, loyal American among Amer
ica's most loyal citizens. In the War
of the Rebellion Knute Nelson offered
his life in defense of his country and
fought valiantly for the preservation
of the Union. Today when war clouds
again threaten and his country's honor
is again imperiled he stands forth
firm and fearlessly to defend it. As
ever in the past, when duty calls he is
found ready to respond.
All honor to Senator Knute Nelson.
Long may he be spared to uphold the
dignity of Minnesota and support the
and honor of his country
