and the success of one is dependent
to a greater or less degree upon the
success of the other. The farmer has
known his local business man for
many years, and he has found him re-
sponsive to things that will improve
the condition of his farmer constitu-
ency. Aside from it being a good bus
mess sense for the business man tc
take this view, he regards the farm
ers as his friends and takes person
al pride in the development and pros
perity of the community as whole.

Neither Mr.. Bowen or Mr.. Townley
appeared to think much of the news
papers-or those Of them who were
opposed to their propaganda, alleging
that they were owned body and soul
and dictated to by the beef trust and
other big interests, not willing to &C.
cord others the honesty of purpose
which they claim for themselves and
their organization.
In this connection both speakers ap-
peared to have an ingrown grudge
against Editor Rudolph Lee of the
Long Prairie Leader, and their refer
ence to him by name and by inuendo
was anything but complimentary. Mr..
Lee has been a resident Of Todd coun-
ty for many years and IS generally
recognized as very high grade and
fearless citizen. Very likely the meat
in the cocoanut to the opposition to
Mr.. Lee is the result of joint debate
in which Mr.. Lee accepted challenge
of Organizer Randall some weeks ago
and in the discussion which took place
in the Community hall, Long Prairie,
Mr.. Lee, by his logic and sound sense
was entirely too much for the bonn
bastic methods of his adversary. How
ever, it is not necessary for the Her
aid to come to the defense of Mr.. Lee
as he is perfectly able to care for him
sci in any argument or difficulty in
which he happens to be mixed up.
The day was brought to close when
the Sank Centre fire department gave
an impromptu fire drill. There was a
sure enough fire too, but not serious
conflagration. There was unavoidable
assembled because the men did not
know where the fire was. This delay
was caused by the removal of tele.
phone recently owing to the fact that II
was too generally used by the public
At length orders came to proceed to the
home Of Mrs. Gilbert Gilbertson on Oak
street, near the N. p. tracks. The
blaze was in a small closet back of the
kitchen. The damage was about $50
| fully covered by insurance. Chief Kus-
ba was at the slaughter house wher
the alarm was turned in, but catching
| Anton Nelson's auto on the fly he
| reached town at q rapid rate.

Mr.. Stadtherr stated, in an interview,
that he had driven car for IL years,
with this one accident to break the
record.
Saturday afternoon about three
o'clock, the team of John Schafer, a
farmer living near Sank Centre, ran
away. Mr.. Schafer had been at the
McDermott home near the Great Nor
thern tracks and had his team hitch
ed up preparatory to going home. AS
he was reaching for the lines, the
team became frightened at the noise
of passing car and being high spir-
tied, anyway, started down the street
at high speed. When Mr.. Schafer saw

collided in an accident that might
easily have proved serious. AS ex-
planned by both of the men, the fault
lay with neither of them, to any ex-
tent. Mr.. Stadtherr was driving be-
hind large car, which had the top
up and did not see the Mexwell until
after the lead car had turned out for
it. Then he tried to turn, but the
grade was narrow and he took his turn
carefully. AS it happened, only one
lamp was burning and that was the
one the greatest distance from the
Hager car. Mr.. Hager thought it was
a motorcycle and turned out accord
ingly. AS result both drivers found
themselves suddenly stopped: For
tunately they were driving slowly
which lessened the chances for injury.
The cars were both slightly damaged.

Eleven of the best known families
of Sank Centre and vicinity have rep
resentatives in the Herald's "Profit-
Sharing Club" and a look over the
names of those who have thus fan
taken up the work will convince the
people of this community that the
profit Sharing Club" is going to be
one of the most interesting campaigns
ever staged in Minnesota
The Herald is pleased and gratified
to have the people of this vicinity re-
ceive the "Profit-Sharing Club" with
the same spirit of earnestness as that
in which it is being conducted. 1t
is seldom that a subscription cam
paign of any kind attracts the class OF
people that today's list of members
represent, and the management attri-
bu]es the widespreadzinte to the
unusual fairness of the proposition as
well as the liberal pay which everyone
will receive. ,..
The "Profit-Sharing Club" has not
reached it's membership limit and
those who are thinking of joining the
club should do SO as soon as possible
in order to take advantage Of the
large credit offer now in force. 1t is
not too late to join the club and not
one-hundredth part Of the subscrip-
tions have even been promised. 1t is
not unusual that an especially active
person who gets started during the
third week of campaign earns the
largest bonus, and this is true because
it is easier to sell subscriptions after
the campaign is we'll advertised and
everyone had decided to take the pap
err. 1t is only question of seeing the
most people then. Four more people
will be admitted to the club and there
will be at least three times that many
who will decide to join in the next two
weeks.
The credits given for subscriptions
during the campaign will follow def
mite plan which we are publishing sc
that everyone concerned can see fol
themselves the importance of the big
special credit offer now il force. From
beginningAof the campaign until the

M and Second Lieutenant Harris to Company E. Thus each company at present has 0 first and second lieu tenant. To Discharge Married Men.
 The condition of Sergeant William Brown of Company E. is now so much improved that he is permitted to have visitors at the hospital and sev- eral of his comrades called on him yesterday. In Company E. there are several men who expect to receive their discharge for physical disabil- ity within a short time. Having de- pendents is also cause for an enlisted National Guardsan to receive his discharge, according to the following order received by Lieutenant Griffin from the office of Major General Leonard Wood:
 "The secretary of war has author ized the department commanders to discharge from the service of the United States enlisted men of the National Guard who have persons depending on them for support and which their discharge. would render advisable. Each application must be made by the soldier himself, stating the fact and forwarded through reg ular military channels"
 The order further specifies that the company commander should make certain that the facts in each case are as represented.
 The men of Company F., those sta- toned at the armory and those now out on guard duty. are all receiving in turn the benefits of the victrola and records recently purchased and do- mated. At present the victrola is be- ing used by the men away from the armory, but in turn it will come back again for the use and amuse- ment of those here.
 Guards to Use Bucl-Sl
 While the National Guard, doing duty in this city and other places. is to cooperate in every way with pri- vate guards for the protection of property, they are not to act as watch men themselves. but rather to be an available reserve. according to the following order received from the off, flee of Major General Wood:
 "In making disposition of guards, company commanders should give due consideration to all points covered and protected by private guards and to cooperate in every way with pri- vate guards so placed.
 "In executing the foregoing instruc- ticns every precaution will be taken. especially at night. to prevent ma licious injury to works under charge of guards. Any person attempting to damage any works. buildings, sup plies. equipment or property of any kind, under charge of guards, will be fired upon.
 Where repeating shotCuns are ! available sentinels will be provided with buckshot. Sentinels armed with ! rifles will be supplied with guard cart 1 ridges when practicable, in addition l to ball cartridges"

ARMY PROTECTION
 FOR NEW BRITAIN
Detachment of Troops Will Be Here Constantly, Officer States

New Britain Is assured of a strong ing to Lieutenant Ashley J. Griffin, commanding Company E. First Con- necticut Infantry. now in barracks at the state armory on Arch street. While Company F has not yet received any orders to leave New Britain, although several small attachments are doing guard duty in this vicinity, and no intimation has been received as to when they will be ordered away from their home station, Lieutenant Grif- fin feels assured that the city will at all times be properly protected.
 How to Address Letters.
 Information received from Com pany I, now doing guard duty some where about the state, states that the men are all we'll and are taking up with their new duties with the snap and vim that has always character ized their work. For military exped- icncy the movements of troops is not made knows to the general public and consequently there has been some speculation as to how friends at home are to write letters to the boys in Company I. Lieutenant Griffin explains that the letters should be ad- dressed as follows: % Name.
 Company I, First Conn. Infantry, Care Regimental Headquarters. Hartford, Conn. Letters addressed in this manner will be immediately forwarded to their destination by the authorities. Lieutenant Griffin this morning re. ceived confirmation of the nomina- tions of the several on-commissioned officers made a few days ago.

 erly first lieutenant of Company E. is 1 now attached to Company M of Win. sted. There has been some wonder
 ment as to why Lieutenant Johnson was transferred to another company
 but the official explanation shows pos. | itively that 1t was no reflection or l his ability as a soldier or an officer Since the appointment of Lieutenan' l Griffin, Company E had two first lieu. tenants, but no second lieutenants IT Company M there were two second lieutenants but no first lieutenants
