THE THEATRE
Wright Opera House

LAS play The Natural Law is a
success. 1t is fascinating mainly be-
cause the unexpected always happens
The big thing about the play is the
character Of Doctor Webster, admira-
bly, played and wonderful in its Christ.
Illness. His love for Ruth, so true and
pure that it is ready to sacrifice all for
her happiness, and so forgiving and
reasonable that we are reminded OF
the great Teacher who said that we
were to forgive seventy times seven,
is in itself enough to commend the
teaching that it is mean and wrong TO
condemn, as our society does, anyon ,
who has made mistake, again brings
Us into the unadulterated morning air
Of the Galilean who said L have not
come to call the righteous, but sinners
to repentance The clear headed, yet
self sacrificing acid test at the end
that the doctor applies to Jack Bow
ling, is but the full and complete eli
max to love as spotless as the noon
day sun. You have big thing.
"Of course, you understand that the
little Ifhave said about the play does
rot in any manner exhaust its wonders.
II goes down to the most fundamental
and basic principles Of social order.
Like all big things, it will need much
thought from me before its greatness
is even appreciated fully, let alone

How the Real Irish Feel.

Recently 300 men of Irish birth or
descent met in Chattanooga, Tenn,
and adopted the following resolutions
Whereas, we, American citizens of
Irish extraction, are now involved in
a war with the most formidable enemy
the world of civilization has ever
known; and,
Whereas, we fully recognize that
there is no race on earth in which God
has more deeply implanted love for
the country of their forefathers than
the Irish in America; and
Whereas, that love is only exceeded
by the love Of our own country, the
United States of America, whose
peace, happiness and prosperity are
now menaced by the barbarous forces
of the kaiser; and
Whereas, an element of our fellow
Irishmen in Ireland, to whom we SO
cheerfully have lent our moral and
financial aid in their efforts to secure

A Profitable Investment.

When you buy Az Liberty bonds you
are making a good safe investment.
In the first place the bonds are not
taxable-in amounts under $4,000 In
the second place, in short time, after
the war ends the bonds will go to a
premium. In this connection here is
"a Bit of Financial History" quoted
from the Chicago Banker:
"The credit of the United States
was so high and unquestionable that
in 1900, two years after the war with
Spain, 2 per cent bonds were offered at
par and oversubscribed. This is a
financial performance no other nation
has ever equaled. United States 4
per cent bonds in 1883 sold as high as
100, and in 1901 brought 139 7-8 in the
open market. The United States has
never defaulted in any of it's obliga-
tions. Not one of it's bondholders has
ever lost cent of principal or interest
except those who have voluntarily
taken losses by selling their bonds in
period of temporary price depression.
One hundred cents on the dollar, prin-
cipal and interest, has the United
States always paid. Back of the APP
proximated $3.50, 000, 600, 900 of nation
al resources stands the rugged honesty
of America. Liberty loan bonds are
the safest security in the world"

An Unpatriotic Onamia Man.

Under the date of April 81, G. H.
Carr writes us from Onamia:
AS solicitor for the Liberty loan
bonds, on the 28th of April, requested
T. O. Holm, who resides on section 20,
township Of Onamia, to purchase a
bond. He answered me:
"Do you suppose for minute that
I have gone bug house to buy those
bonds ?"
replied, t'You wait and let Ger
many whip us and you will have
harder time than you now have to-
live"
Then he said, "We would be better
off if Germany would come over here
and take possession of things"
Mr.. Carr requests us to publish the
part of his letter in quotations marks,
and we gladly comply with his request
But that man Holm has no place i'm
this country. He should get out Of it,
and the sooner the better.

Road Building Must be Kept Up

NOdu DulluAIS MuSC Dc hepC Up.
If there is any kind of public build
ing in Minnesota that should go on in
war time as extensively as in peace
time, it is that having to do with roads.
Minnesota, eighteenth state in popula-
tion, according to the federal census
bureau estimate of 1917, will be thir-
teerth in the amount Of money to be
used for highway improvement this
year. The state highway commits
sioner announces that Minnesota will
spend on roads $7,700,000, or approx
mately twice the expenditures of last
year. OF far greater Importance than
the amount, however, is the manner of
the spending. Some kinds of road
building in this and other states have
been very wasteful Of both money and
construction energy. If we have
learned to profit properly by the ex-
periences of the past, we may hope
that the funds for building will
be wisely spent this year-spent for
the most part with a far look into the
future.
Durable roads, always desirable,
have come to be public necessity in
these days of automobile passenger
cars and trucks. They are indispen-
sable to a really progressive home
population, and they are peculiarly

Sageng Not Wanted by TOwnley.


Senator Ole Sageng Of Otter Tail
county is bona fide farmer, and a
farmer brother of his is resident of
Mile Laos county. He makes his liv-
ing by farming his farm and not by
exploiting his brother farmers. He
was elected to the state senate as a
populist in 1906, and was returned
again in 1910 and 1914. He has been
an ardent champion Of all legisla-
ton that would tend to benefit the
farmers. He is broad minded, intelli-
gent to a high degree, and absolutely
incorruptible. But Mr.. Townley and
his gang of North Dakota freebooters
do not want men of Sageng's calibre
in the legislature, and they are doing
their level best to defeat him. Why?
Because Senator Sageng is not the
kind Of man that can be easily ham
dled-in fact he can't be handled at
all. Such men as he are not wanted
by Townley and his North Dakota ag-
gregation of anarchists and decayed
politicians.

for his work. He knows it from the
ground up, so to say. He served his
apprenticeship.in the state legislature.
He was then sent to Washington, and
remained in the house six years. He
was then called home, and twice elect
ed to the office Of governor, giving the.
people of the state the benefit of the
experience and observation he had
profted by in the national field. This
brought him to 1895; and since then
he has served in the upper house Of
congress.
At seventy-fve Mr.. Nelson is hardy
and in health, and still abundantly
able to hold up his end Of the stick.
The country, at this time in particular,
needs in office men of his quality. He
has seen much Of law-making. He has
seen a good deal of war. He was
young soldier in the struggle for the
preservation of the union, and bore
himself well.
Law-making and war-and good
deal of the law-making now bears on
WARFARE uppermost subjects in the
public mind; and the veteran senator
from Minnesota is qualified man on
both. His presence in the senate has.
been helpful to the country since the
war began, and will be helpful for
some years after the war closes. For
following so great world upheavaI
will be the necessity for fashioning
many new policies, relating to inter-
national and we'll as national matters;
and those who know, and have assisted!
in shaping the old policies, will be,
employed in the new labor. It will be.
no easy matter after the storm sub
sides to take the proper bearings and
work the ship on the later course. Old
and trusty salts will be in request.
Mr.. Nelson has long been one of the
republican leaders of the northwest,
and he is still member and leader
of that party. He will be reelected as
republican. He is supporting the
war, not. as a republican, but as one
who puts the war above party. On all:
other propositions he holds to his
party faith, and, presumably, during
his fifth term as senator will continue
to train with his party friends on party

Just Helped. a Little.

Bob Dunn as senator maker and I'M
maker has high record. He was
largely responsible for the election of
Moses E. Clapp to the senate, and
later when he and the "Black Eagle"
had a political falling out, he started
a boom for Frank B. Kellogg, that re-
tired Moses and gave Frank great
victory. This year after number of
influential men of both parties had
given up hope Of getting the consent
Of Uncle Knute to take a fifth term,
Bob hoisted Nelson's name at the head
of his editorial column, and insisted
that the senator would heed the uni
versal demand of the people of the
state. Nelson will of course be elected
by a tremendous majority, and this
is another score for the Honorable
Robert-St. Cloud Journal-Press.
In modest way we contributed our
mite toward the making and unmak-
ing referred to by the Journal-Press.
There is one man, however, the J.-P.
overlooked-the noblest Roman of
them all-the late Cushman K. Davis,
whom the Union strenuously support
ed, and the change Of one vote in the
joint session of the legislature of 1898
would have defeated him for re-elec-
ton to the United States senate. We
were an humble member Of the house
in that session and positively know
that exceedingly liberal inducements
were offered to. keep members from
voting for Davis. 1t is long story
but we may take time to tell it some
day. -.-
