VOTE FOR AMENDMENT NO

l.
Failure to vote for an amendment to
the state Constitution is the same as
voting against it, . =
That is why the voters of Minnesota
should inform themselves on the amend
ments to be voted on at the eleetto., on
November Z. The man who passes the
amendments by because he does not I'M
derstand them is blindly voting against
them and he may be doing himself and
Iothers an injustice.
Amendment No. is Of vital importance
to every citizen of the state, for It in
wolves the development of state lands
and the building up of the permanent
school fund of the state. It provides
that revolving fund of $25oooo shall be
set aside for the building of roads and
bitches and the clearing of state lands
Under its operation it will be possible
for the state which still owns 3,ee0, 900
acres of land in Northern Minnesota, to
partially develop tracts of it's land and
put them on the market for purchase by
actual settlers. The cost of the improve
ment will be charged against tho land
and added to the minimum price, 50 they
will be paid by the purchaser. The sale
of state lands will IT, US be hastened and
additional funds added to the permanent
school fund; the lands partially iRapfov-
ed will bring better prices and the per
manent school fund will benefit. =
The amendment does not contemplate
any ultimate expel, dture by the state.
When the need for the revolving fund
exists no longer it will be turned into
the permanent school fund intact. Only
$25o,000 can be used; it will be returned
by the purchasers of land, and will be
used only until the state land Is sold

other people, but when you look the
record over it's so good that criticism
comes close to being nothing more
than cheap fault finding.
"a fool or a coward would have had
the United States in all sorts Of trouble.
As It 10, we are at peace, the country
was never moro prosperous, and we
have the strength that comes with
honor and integrity Of purpose.
"Wilson has won victories by diplo-
macy that are far more important to
mankind than any victories that we
could have won by war.
Had we recognized Huerta it would
have. served notice upon the world
that the United States. while believing
in democracy for home use, was will
ing to stand for despotism where 9TH
er peoples were concerned. President
Wilson's Mexican policy has been wise
and just and courageous.
Belgium? Hindsight! In the light
of two years it's easy to say what
should have been done. But at the
time not single paper or public
man even thought of anything but
keeping the United States out of the
European horror.
Tariff? There's another proof Of
Wilson's openness of mind. No matter
what he thought about the Underwood
law, he had the courage to admit that
the European war had returned the
tariff to the province of discussion.
So he came to the front with his prop
osition for tariff commission. That's
sense The tariff is scientific affair,
sion will lift the whole business out. of
politics.
"As ! said at tho start, It has just
been one big thing after another with
Wilson.
Look at the threatened general rail-
road strike. Why, If carried through,
such strike would have thrown the
whole country into confusion.
"ln my opinion, M. Hughes, IF Pres
ident, would have found Il difficult to
decide on the best course for the Cow
eminent TO take in such matters. His
capacity for hindsisht. as we learn
from his speeches, is highly developed,
but as to his foresight, we are not
equally well informed. s..~

Perhaps he has. But notice that he

LONG PRAIRIE DOUBLE MURDER
AND LYNCHING RECALLED BY

PARDON PLEA
The lynching of Black John" Miede
lat Long Prairie in November, 1879, by
several hundred citizens who became in
furiated over a doVble murder, was re-
called last week when Michael Miede,
brother of the victim Of the lynching
made a plea to the state pardon board
for a pardon. He is "a years old and
has served more than 80 years and is the
second oldest inmate Of the state prison.
The Miede brothers, Frank Steinhuber
and Hery Kolway and a 17-year old girl
which the last named claimed was his
wife, settled in Ward township in the
spring of 1879. Trouble arose between
the four men and the girl was involved
in it. That Michael Miede killed. Kolway
with shotgun while BLACK John, split
Steinhuber's head with an axe and then
hacked his body beyond recognition was
the theory of the prosecution in the trial
later. An attempt was made to lynch
Michael Miede but it was prevented by a
secret verdice. A life sentence was given
Miede and he was taken to prison imme-
diately. ~ -.- ----.- --~ .s
