Lawyers Endorse Flaherty

Since party nominations have been
done away with, the voters have
come to look to the members of the
bar for recommendations as to suit
able persons for the judiciary, and
to rely very much on the judgment
of the attorneys.
On account of Judge S. A. Flah-
erty's wide popularity among the
people, an endorsement of his candi-
dacy by the local attorneys would ap-
pear hardly necessary as it is in the
case of judge who is unknown per-
sonally, but the friends Of Judge
Flaherty will nevertheless read with
pleasure the following endorsement
unanimously given him by the at
torneys of Stevens county:
1--WE, the undersigned members of
the Stevens County Bar, recognizing
in the Hon. S. A. Flaherty, who has
filed for reelection, just and able
Judge, one who has presided over
the judicial affairs of this district
with dignity, wisdom and ripe legal
experience, so rare, and so eminent
ly satisfactory, as unquestionably to
warrant his reelection, hereby most
cordially endorse the work that he
has done, and highly recommend him
to the voters of this district for re-
election.

BIG DRIVE FOR FUNDS
WEEK OF NOVEMBER IL
Seven Organizations Combined for
Money to Garry on Relief
Work

Plans are now being formulated
in Stevens county for the big drive
for funds for the United War Work
Campaign. This drive will start
Nov. II and last one week and in the
meantime an effort will be made to
point out the great need of the money
and show what it will be used for
In the past, the different organiza-
tions doing welfare work for the
soldier boys in the camps and canton
ments have made appeals for money
separately, which meant that by the
time one organization had secured
the amount it needed then the next
Started campaign for funds. At
this time the seven principal organ
izations have combined and will in
stitute a campaign for money under
one head. These seven organizations
are the National Catholic War Coun-
Gil, the Y. M. C. A, the Y. w. G. A.,
the Salvation Army, the Jewish Re-
lief Society, the American Library
Association and the War Camp Com
munity Service.
Each one of these societies has de-
cided upon the amount of money they
need for doing relief work and the
amounts added and the total will be
raised in one lump sum. This means
that when person donates money
for this United War Fund they will
not be asked later to give more. That
is, if they are approached by a Y. M.
C. A. worker and give to him, they
will not again be asked to give by
the X. C.'s, and vica versa. The
amount given will be divided among
the different organizations on a pro
rata basis.
The total to be raised in the I'm
tied States for this United War Fund
is $170,500,000 and Minnesota's
share is $5,00O,000. The different
counties of the state have been ap-
portioned certain amounts according
to their contributing factors, such as
valuation, population and general
conditions. Stevens county is asked
to give $4,000 and those having the
campaign in charge have asked ten
per cent, making it $4,000. This is
done because the $4,000 is the very
minimum of what is needed and is
not the maximum. When the amounts
apportioned to the other counties is
known, it will be seen that the ST.
900 is not high for Stevens county.
Grant county is asked to give $18,-
900, Traverse $4,000, Big Stone
$4,000, Pope $4,000, Swift $685.
900.
The county of Steevns has been de-
vided into districts and each district
given it's share to raise. Each dis
trict comprises one of the towns and
the surrounding territory. The Nor
ris district must raise $7,070, DON
nelly s2,907, Chokio $2,261, Alberta
1885 and Hancock $3.50. Each
district also has a chairman as fol-
lows: Stephen Burt for Chokio, c..
q. Bordewick for Hancock, F. J. Nc
Laughlin for Donnelly, Louis Larson
for Alberta, and the county chair
man. Mr.. Stever, has charge of the
Morris district.
Mr.. f. A. Stever is chairman Of
the county, Harry Adams secretary,

to be the worst stricken by influenza
of any place in the state. There are
said to be $50 cases there and 20

The humble product of the farm

by the bureau of crop estimates under
the authority of Secretary of Agricul-
ture Houston.
The report shows that approximate
" 100000 cords of firewood, val
ned at about $3.50, 100000. were used
in the United States during 1917. This
represents an increase of about 1.O00-
600 cords over the previous year.
The government report shows that
Alabama was the greatest user of fire.

Georgia is a close second with 4.S0O.-

How Fish Are Affected by Cold.

It has been proved that sudden cold
sometimes causes the death of thou
sands Of fish in the shallow waters of
the tropics and subtropics. Many spe-
cies are so chilled as to become help
less and are either killed directly by
drowning or are washed ashore In n
comatose state. The phenomenon is
known locally ms freezing" although
the temperature Of the water NAV be
several degrees above the freezing
point. During very severe cold spells
great numbers Of fish are often killed
along the Atlantic coast MS far north
MS New England Contact with cold
mir causes the water to cool rapidly,
and the great expanse Of shallow wa
ter around the Florida Keys and the
many shallow bays that are little af-
fected by tides AFFORD favorable con-
ditions for rapid cooling.
