TEICHRoW's FATHER KILLED

Herman Teichrow, father of Jack
Teichrow who was until recently state
Weighmaster at New Ulm, was crushed
and almost instantly killed Saturday
afternoon week ago at the Gould Grain
Co. at Kasota. It is thought that he
was walking between two cars when they
were coupled and he was caught between
them and crushed by the bumpers. When
the cars were uncoupled he fell to the
ground beside the tracks. where he was
found with life almost extinct, He died
a few moments later.
Mr.. Teichrow was state weigher and
was working around the elevator at the
time of the accident. He was born
Aug. 10, 1859, in Russia. He came
to- America. in 1870 and resided at
Window. He lived there. until 1902
when he moved with his wife and family:
to Mountain Lake. Six weeks ago he
came to Kasota and worked as state
weigher. He was SO years of age at the
time of his death. ,.5.,S
He is survived by his wife, four SONS
and one daughter. They are 81. B.

When Big Business gets it's dishonroable

and that may not be far away; things
move rapidly in war times it can blame
only its own stupidity. Two years ago
s~American people were largely IN

when the war started the government
went to unusual lengths to disturb Big
Business as little as possible and to use
Big Business. If the docility of the
American people has been destroyed by

ment has lost its faith in the man Of.
great wealth, big business can blame
only itself. It has pushed its power to
a point where it is unbearable, and it
has to go.

j. F. Teichrow who came from Tex
as to attend the funeral Of his father
at Mountain Lake was in the city Sunday
and part Of Monday. When the news W
of his fathers sudden death reached him
at the camp, he asked for twelve days
furlougha which was granted him. He
expects to leave Mountain Lake for his
post Of duty Wednesday. He is quite
enthusiastic about camp con litions in
Texas and enjoys his work immensely.
From a sanitary viewpoint, he considers
conditions almost ideal. Altho they
average 1000 patients in the hospital,
this is less than 2 per cent Of the total
number of men on duty and is considered
quite remarkable.

. zs i matter of factt, the lcnpartisan
league IS patriotic in It's stand, and II Ii.
Big Business profiteers who are
y3a to wiring more money out Of the
slties of the people and holding up
the government with high prices, who
are the real disloya yalists, and they needn't
think they are going to fool the people
by hiding behind the flag.
The Nonpartisan league started the
campaign against these prcfteers and
now We have. the President Of the United
States squarely behind US in our de-
mands. That ought to settle any doubts
about our patriotism in the minds of
any honest man.

WILL DISCUSS
AMATEUR RULE
TO TAKE UP CASE OF OUlMET;
INVOLVES EVERY BRANCH
OF SPORT.

Denver, Colo. Jan. Every game
in the realm of sport is directly or in
directly involved in the decision the
United States Golf association makes
at its annual meeting in New York
next week on the question Of What
constitutes an amateur according to
Frank L. Woodward, president Of the
association, who left here Monday for
the annual gathering. Mr.. Woodward
issued statenent which he said out
lined the ideas of the executive COM
mittee on the subject.
1T is either sport for sports sake
or sport for GAIN said Woodward.
The question OF the amateur stand
ing of Francis Ouimet. John ]. Sulli-
van and Paul Tewksbury, three prom
inent American golfers. Woodward
said. would undoubtedly be discussed.
The men we're suspended last year on
charges that they had engaged in the
sporting goods business.
Part of the statement follows:
TREMENDOUS efforts have been put
forth by a number of Massachusetts,
golfers and others who have constitut-
ed themselves the enemies Of the ex-
ecutiye committee to prejudice the
minds of the delegates who expect TO
attend the annual meeting. The meth
DDS adopted to accomplish this are
most regrettable for the reason that
golf is supposed to be preeminently a
friendly sport distinguished by good
fellowship and harmony"

Grain Review

Chicago. Jan 2.-Excitement ovei
chances of prolonged European HOSTILE
ties carried wheat prices up today with
a rush. The opening of business today
was the first opportunity traders had
to gauge the market influence Of the
reply of the entente allies to the Ger
man overtures for peace 1t was APP
parent at once that the courage OF buy
ers had been greatly stimulated
connections. Opening prices, which
ranged from to ~ cents higher with
May at $1.75h to s1.79, and July at
$1.43 to $146, were followed by further
gains, May in some cases rising to more
than cents above Saturdays closing
level.
Falling off in the United States Wis
ible supply total and in the amount on
OCEAN passage led subsequently, to de-
cided further upturns in quotations.
Besides seaboard advices were optimis-
tic regarding prospects of an increase
in the number of vessels available for
shipments to Europe. The close was UNI
settled, SIS to sac net higher with May
at $179% to $1.S0A and July at s1.46fs
to $1.46N.
Corn assembled with wheat Offerings
were unusually light. After opening y
to 1 &c higher the market continued to
score gains.
The fact that receipts were not large
and that there were signs of an export
demand tended to uphold the market,
The close was nervous at ! "a to &c net

Oats showed readiness to follow the
upward course of other cereals. Sellers
were scarce
Provisions held comparatively steady
The market lacked volume.

COMMISSION
OPENS TODAY
HIGH COURT OF BASEBALL BE.
GINS ANNUAL SESSION At
CINCINNATI.

Cincinnati. o., Jan. Baseball men
from almost every part Of the country
began gathering here Monday for the
annual meeting of the national base
ball commission today.
While the commission meeting has
been called for 10 a. m, 1t is highly
proable it will be hours later before
the supreme court of baseball really
begins its work, inasnuch as there has
been a special meeting called OF the
club owners Of the three class IA
leagues. which has as an Indicated OBJ
jective the adoption Of suitable reso-
luton for presentation to the commits
sion asking that the drafting Of play
ers from class IA leagues be abol-
ished
While nothing omcial has BEEN an
nounced by the commission a. to how
1t will look upon this demand, it has
been officially indicated BY President
Johnson Of the American league that
the request would be denied.
That the class IA league men In
tend to press the matter with energy
Is Indicated by the special meet1n9.
Every club president Of the Ames8rnn
association and the Intesuseunal
league is expected here, but It IL hasd.
~ probable that the Pacific coast
league will be represented by more
than one man.
1t also is probable large nunber
OF the major league magns4es vim be
IN attendance, as a number Of other
matters that have to do WIN he re.
latton between the major and minor
league clubs are believed to be on the
HIST OF matters to be considered BY the
