THEY DON'T MAKE GOOD.

Here, during the past few
months, one was reasonably sure
of finding a delegation from the
Hawaiian colony, consisting Of

about their threats necklets Of

Biggest Job
Ever Tackled
Something About the Big Man
Who Works for a Salary of
S1.00 Per Year.

The biggest job any man ever
tackled has been undertaken by
Herbert Hoover, for the salary
of one dollar year. He is at
tempting to organize a system
watch will feed every person in
the world, and make hunger I'M
known. To be officially connect
ed with the government ne must
draw some salary, and he re-
fused to take more than 81. In
this he is not scabbing on the
Job, nor attempting to. Hoover
is the man who ushered starva-
ton from Belgium, and it is the
experience he gained which he
is planning to employ now for
the benefit of the whole world.
The world is sick because half
of it or more is always hungry
and now comes DR.. Hoover to
apply the remedy of a better
food distribution. He has made
plenty of money. He believes
the world owes him little more
in gold, and more, he believes
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1917-08-29

the world has been so good to
him that he owes it something,
and if he succeeds in feeding
the world, who can say that
Hoover's name should not be in
delibly written on the pages of
history.
Hoover is a big-headed, big
listed and big-hearted product
of the West. He was a failure
as an office boy, but proved a
brilliant success as a mining en-
gineer.
Between the days when he
was an Office boy and before he
reached the goal of what the
world calls success, Hoover spent
considerable time prospecting. It
was good for his physique; gave
him an opportunity to put his
education to some practical use
but best of all it must have de.
veloped the humanity in the
man, for no one can sit beside
a prospector's fire night after
night and listen to the logic anc
philosophy of those men who
| look for gold in the deserts Of
the West without having his
education greatly extended ane
broadened and coming in touch
to some extent with the doctrine
of the Brotherhood of Man.
It is principally because Hoov
er has been a prospector tha
| we have great faith in him, fol
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1917-08-29

no man could succeed in what
ne has undertaken who had not
taken time to study human ma
ture, and when prospecting there
is usually plenty of time for
that.
The President of the United
States has such faith in Hoover,
that he has practically given
him full control of the food sit
aatioh, and has asked congress
to enact the powers granted
Hoover into law.
To feed the whole world, to
see that no one goes to bed hun
CRY; these are among the things
which organized labor has striv-
en- to do since the first organi-
zation was formed. It is not to
be wondered at then that the
labor representatives at Wash
ington have taken kindly to
Hoover and offered him the most
loyal support, for shortage of
food and high prices takes food
off the tables of the workers
first. The very thing which
starves the workers makes the
idling rich considerably more
wealthy.
The things Hoover wishes to
do, he cannot do alone. He does
not wish to be a dictator. He is
an American and understands
Americans. He wants to lead
the people, not drive them into
conserving food and thus help
ing to feed the world and low
er the cost of living.
We sincerely hope that organ
lied labor to man will give this
Big Hoover from the West, the
most loyal support in his most
praiseworthy effort to Danish
hunger and incidentally a great
part of the disease which exists
in the world today. Let us do
all we can to hold up his hands
and aid him in his campaign to
eliminate the food grafters and
spectators and make the world
happy. Labor Review.

succor, according to a report of
the proceedings published in the
Minneapolis Tribune, from which
this mention is cleaned.
This new party is an amalga-
nation of the Ultra-Pacifst, So
cialist, Peace-at-Any-Price Non
Partisan League and |. w. w.
organizations, and in this capa-
city will perhaps be a boon to
the country, because it concen-
trates these different elements
of disquietude under one head.
Among the honored leaders of
their respective localities who
were present at this potentious
meeting, were James A. Peter
son of Minneapolis, who will be
remembered as a candidate for
senator, governor and lieutenant
governor; Rev. Lehnert, former
pastor of Sleepy Eye, now I'M
der bonds, awaiting trial for
treason; Albert Pfaender and
Mayor L. A. Fritscie of New
Ulm; Paul Dehnel, citizen at
large, and some others of state
wide celebrity.
The proceedings Of the gath
ering were of the spectacular or
der and characterized by glar-
ing recitals of grievances and
fiery oratory. Mayor Fritsche
denounced the Public Safety
Commission and said that every
town and village in the state was
in favor of the new party.
Senator LaFollette is credited
with being the "head and brains
of the new party, and he is
scheduled to be present and
make an address at a meeting
to be held in Minneapolis the
first week in September, at
which it is hoped by the lead
ers, representatives from every
locality in the state will be pres
emit.
The meeting accomplished the
purpose for which it was called
viz: the selection of leaders, by
naming the following as candi
dates for the positions named

| A. Peterson.
