D. A. Craig, Buell.; and Mrs. 0. K.

Putting, One Over.

A few weeks ago it was announced
that the linotype, an old model, in the
office Of the Park Region Echo atAlex-
andria, had been demolished by I'M
known parties, presumably by enemies
of the editor, Carl A. Void, who had
taken a stand against the president on
the war issue. This supposed outrage
drew the sympathy Of the members
Of the non-partisan league, mostly
farmers of Douglas county, and they
Immediately raised the sum of $3.50
to replace the linotype damaged by the
enemies of the non~partisan league.
On investigation it has been found that
the old machine could have been re-
paired at cost of $50 or SIS and the
suspicion is very strong that the whole
deal was a put up job with Void the
big winner. How easy to pull off
'stroke" like this when you have the
neIve.-Hubbard County Journal.

Digging, delving and scraping for
SO years, New York man succeeded
in accommodating large fortune Then
he died. During his life time his sole
ambition was to accumulate money and
upon his death his only son began to
squander his hard-earned ducats. The
old man never took a half day off to
attend the baseball game, never passed
an hour at the "movies" or ever went
fishing in the "crick" Had he appro-
priated day now and then to angling
for bullheads or something Of that
sort, or had he even occasionally
played a game Of cards, he would
probably be living to day. There is a
lesson in this little story that old
miserly dodgers would do well to re-
fleet on before it is too late.

In an address at Newark, N. j., Van
Lear, mayor Of Minneapolis, apollo
gized to his audience for not appear
ing a week prior. He gave as his ex-
cuse that he had to watch chs fine
bunch of aldermen" in Minneapolis for
fear that they would 'put one over'
on him as they had done upon several
occasions. Nice way to speak of his
aldermanic body when away from
home, to be sure, but what can a
kaiseritic mayor expect from council
of Americans? It would not do to let
him "put one over" on them, would it !?
If Van Lear ever runs for mayor
again it will not be the aldermen
alone who will ''put one over" but the
people, and that will be put out, or,
should we say, kick out?

Bows Should Be Curbed.

The parents Of boys who were out
Halloween should make it their special
business to inquire as to just what
form the Halloween fun shaped itself
into.
No one objects to real fun suitable
for the occasion, such as the appear
ance at unexpected places of hobgob-
Inns, witches, tick-tacks and of the
playing of any harmless pranks, but
when the so-called fun takes the form
Of destroying property the parents
should investigate and compel the gull
ty ones to make restitution.
We have been asked to cite the case
of an elderly. lady-the widow Of a
civil war veteran-living in the south
part of town-who has had, during the
last two years, to pay out close to ten
dollars for repairs on an outbuilding
that has twice been overturned.
1t is certainly a perverted sense of
humor that prompts boys to engage
in such acts of vandalism, and it is
the duty Of parents to see to it that
such things do not occur again.
In these days of patriotic good citi-
zenship, and when plenty Of good
wholesome amusement is provided for
boys, there is no need for the outlet
of spirits in such conduct.

It has been announced by the twin
city dailies that the state fair associa-

appropriate $150,000 for the purpose
Of building a capacious stock and dairy

course, be in addition to other appro-
priations which the association will
attempt to squeeze out Of the taxpay-

fair became self-sustaining. Wherein

St. Paul's Good Fellows society is a
most creditable organization-it was
organized to bring cheer at Christmas
time to the hearts of unfortunates un-
able to purchase Yuletide comforts for
themselves. Turkeys, baskets of food,
shoes, warm clothing, toys for the
tots and other things are now being
arranged for by the Good Fellows.
The members of the organization are
exactly what the name implies.

Great Britain has been granted a
further loan Of $435,000,000, which
brings the amount borrowed by that
nation up to 81, $50, 100000 and to the
allies 1856, 100000. While this is a
vast sum of money to advance to our
allies, when we take into considera-
ton the fact that it is all being ex-
pended in the United States for ma
terial and labor, the complexion of the
matter is changed. Besides, the money
will ultimately be returned to the
United States treasury with fair rate
of interest. The American loan to the
allies is virtually an investment.
