It was some school election,
| when everything is considered.
! Do. not starve that brain Of
yours the Rip-saw.
It was good night for candidate
Knight, all right, all right.
We sincerely hope that banker
Peyton did not spend anything
in the late unpleasantness.

Do not deny your family the
necessities-take home copy
of the Rip-saw, that great family
journal.
"Big Bob" McKercher found
that even chief of police can
not break laws in Superior with
impunity.
The Big Interests should rest
| content with control of Mime
sofas iron ores and not try to
get their hands on Duluth s pub
lie school system.
| No voter has been heard to
complain that he did not get his
moneys worth in excitement and
increased blood pressure in the
late school election.
1t now plainly is proven that
Fred D. knight had just one
reason for running for the school
board, viz: The Minnesota Steel
Company wished it.
When Father Brewer leaves
the school board, who will keep
Grandpa Moran in that sinecure
as janitor at the Washington
junior high school?
A heavy guard should be set
around Supt. Hoke's residence,
otherwise those text book In
dams may lift his scalp-lock from
that classic tcIhe Of fought.
The way that director Davis
has been seeing wicked text
book agents in. Duluth recently,
may be a very good indication
that she needs a new lorgnette.
1t is intimated that Col. Minnie
Jonesfwill oppose director Davis
for the school board next year,
if the latter does not follow au-
tocrat Brewers example and re-
tire.
So
If Col. Minnie Jones does run
for the school board next year
and, vanquish director Davis, it
is wondered if she also will pick
that good lady's little violet.

| the temerity to turn down can
didate Knight.
The excuse for running Knight
was that the Steel plant end Of
the city was entitled to a director.
All sight was los Of he fact that
director Amundson represents
that section Of the city and that
West Duluth has not been repre-
sented on the board since Gechell
quit.
! The Autocrats took no steps
to stop any of the doings at Nor
gan Park. Through the News
Tribune, that element merely
found fault after the harm was
done.
Early in the afternoon the pco-
pies progressive committee sent
a delegation to Morgan Park to
watch the curves Of the corpora
ton that resents the authority of
Duluth. Said one member Of that
committee to the Rip-saw:
"When we arrived at the Nor
gan Park school we took the num-
bers Of machines that were regu-
larly carrying voters to the polls
and secured what information we
could from drivers of the cars.
] One fellow frankly told us that he
! and his machine had been hired
for the day; that he was assured
no deduction in his pay at the
| plant would be made because Of
his absence; that a card he re-
ceived, authorizing his service,
was turned in to the foreman after
being duly signed.
"Another driver informed us
that his time at the plant went on
just the same as if he were work.
ing and that, in addition to pay
for his machine, he received gas
oline and cylinder oil.
"Still another driver wanted to
know what it was to us when we
asked him questions about the
service by him and his machine.
can alarm must have been
quickly turned in after we ar
rived, for very soon a big car
;rolled up, driven by an employee
of the Minnesota Steel company.
What's the trouble?' he-de-
manded.
! "We informed him that people
were being driven to the polls in
cars provided for that purpose
and for which service they re-
ceived financial remuneration.
! "'It's lie. You fellows do not
know what you are talking about,
was the polite reply.
| Under close questioning, how
ever, the fellow admitted that 80
automobiles had been promised for
use in Knights interest in the en-
tire city.
! "a policeman next butted in
with some bluffing remarks. A
big chap whom we were informed
claims the credit of once having
been a trainer for Bob Fitzsim-
mons became abusive.
| Don't you dare come within
100 feet of the polls, he said. If
you 10. you will get all that s
coming to you
! "We asked him if the school
house was not public property and
! he went away.
/ l"We went to the polls. The
janitor of the building and two
women, one a Mrs. Wilson, were
in charge. No one asked ques-
tions as to voters residence or
citizenship. The janitor claimed
to have the registration lists Of
the recent primaries as guide to
the legality Of the voters.

for two more long, weary years,
as well.
Remember that Odin Halden
is a human submarine when: it
comes to- politics. He rings no
bell; he makes no SMOKE; but
an eye should be kept on his
periscope.
Fred D. Knight did not heed
the wishes of East End auto
Gratis that he desist from running
for the school board. He was sad
ly punished, consequently, by de-
feat.
Not being satisfied with de-
feating good old Ed. Ribenack
| for city commissioner, Col. Fred
L. Ryan let loose that hoodoo
! OF his and defeated his own can
didate for the school board.
If Eddie Hatch, the boy poll
| tician, slaps his old supporters
in the face by supporting Halden,
it is hoped that he makes some
one pay we'll for it, either in cash
or a fine job with the Big In
terests.
The Father and Son movement
has taken deep root with those
| in the marble-lined courthouse.
Assistant county attorney Mason
Forbes recently took up his
abode in the delightful state of
matrimony.
Mayor Magney did not have
the best of luck with his candi-
date for the school board. But,
perchance, that appearance on
the track was a bit of scoring in
a race for chief of police or even
city commissioner, next spring.
Before the primaries, Bert
Kribsback worked for commits
Isioner Farrell. Since the primaries,
he does not seem to be working
for him. Perchance the former
affinities have become estranged.
The course Of true love never did
run smoothly.
Policeman Smollet heard shout
ing, with loud, angry words, in
a Park Point residence. Think
ing a big family fracas was in
progress, he fastened to the door
only to find that the Red Cross
ladies in that peninsular suburb
were discussing school election
l issues.
Director Davis and Madam
Klein informed DR.. Schaibly that
| they wanted only intelligent men
on the school board and that his
| candidacy would interfere with
the autocratic lady's plans. The
Doctor was so ungallant as to
tangle up the skeins Of plot and
ambition.

When Bert Kribsback gets to

THE WHO'S WHO EDITION.

In all likelihood the who's Who"
edition of The Times Recorder will
be issued next Sunday.
Indeed, it would have been printed
today but for labor troubles which
The Times-Recorder, in common with
all other newspapers, has experience
ed recently.
The public, as a general PROPOSE
ton, is not interested in the worries
of a newspaper-all it wants is the
paper delivered regularly and on
time by mail Or carrier. However,
in justice to itself, The Times Record
er feels that it should acquaint the
public with some Of its troubles
the extent of saying that for nearly
two months, especially for the last
three weeks, it has had tremendous
difficulties, due to a shortage of skill
ed labor Right now every employe
is working double or triple time, and
there are places of employment open
for three or four men. On this ac-
count the work on the special edition
has not proceeded as rapidly as we
had planned and an unavoidable de-
lay has been caused. However, the
indications are that this edition,
which, it is hoped, will be credit to
the paper and to the county, will
emerge from the press next Sunday
morning.

HAVE YOU BOUGHT YOURS!

Sumter cOunty's quota for the
fourth Liberty Loan is $457, 450.
This is the largest assessment yet
larger than any two of the preced-
ing assessments in the loan flotations
However, it is no more than Sum-
ter county is able to raise-no MOI
than the county should raise-no
more than the county will raise!
This county cannot afford for the
fact to be published that it was a
Stacker in the matter of buying Lib
erty Bonds. Sumter county must go
over the top-and only few more
days remain in which to accomplish
this.
The people in the rural districts are
expected this time to rally to the Lib
erty Loan more than they have ever
done, and the salaried man also is
called upon to stint and sacrifice SO
that he may be the owner of a small
bend.
The question of the hour is, Have
you bought yours?

NOTHING SURPRISES ANY MORE.

Nothing amazes mankind any more.
The fact that a man in Washington
talked with man in Paris merely
furnished food for supper table com
melt, and by the majority the occur
renee has been forgotten ere now.
We cease to marvel This age has
witnessed so many wonderful inven-
tons. that the latest achievement no
longer excites more than passing at
tention.
The automobile, the aeroplane, the
wireless telegraphy, fifty story build
ings. a gun that shoots seventy miles,
the rcyins ptctures-these things are
accepted as matters of course, and
probably some of us wonder why the
arcients didn't think Of them.
If the afternoon papers carry the
news some day that communication
has he en- established with Mars or the
moon. the event will be talked about
fer few days, the magazines will
feature the story and then we will
proceed with out existence in hum
drum style, ready for the next hap
pening. This age positively refuses
to be surprised.
