Members of the Democratic state
executive committee are to be call
ed together for filling ofavancancies
and discussion of the manner in
which the state Democratic organi-
zation should conduct the campaign
next week. j. Washington Logue
and Asher r. Johnson, two of the
state candidates, may attend the
meeting. The meeting was to have
been held this week, but owing to
the difficulty attending the discov-
cry of any Democrat willing to be
! candidate for Congress in the Dau-
phin on-Cumberland district,
where H. H. Mercer withdrew at the
last minute and without warning, it
has been postponed until Democratic
National Chairman Vance G. Nc
Cormick can be heard from as it is
naturally expected that he will take
an interest in securing a congress
sional candidate in his home dis
trict.
| The Thomas bill to forbid large
campaign contributions was dis
cussed with something akin to panic
about the Democratic windmill to-
| day. The fact that the Democratic
national chairman's newspaper does
not pay much attention to it is
rather interesting.
Herman +. Anders. Socialist can
| didate for Congress in the Sixth dis
trict; John p. Elliott, Washington
candidate for the House in the Sec
ond Blair, and Godfrey Springer,
Prohibition candidate in the Sixth
Senatorial district filed Withdrawals
to-day.

THE PRACTICAL PATRIOTISM
Of TOFTE scHOOLBOYs

The schoolboys Of Tofte surely see
the truth of the old saying that "ac-
tions speak louder than words" In
all patriotic activities Tofte has set
mark which is highly creditable to
that community. The wholesome
spirit OF that neighborhood is typi-
.cally demonstrated by the boys of
the school at that place who "say
nothing, but saw wood for the
good Of the: cause. Both to meet the
demands for fuel conservation, and
at the same time, help in war work
in a more material way, these boys
have undertaken to cut and furnish
wood for the school at the usual
market price, the earnings from
which they will turn over to the Red
Cross. All honor to the boys Of Tof-
te, and all honor to the community
spirit which is inspiration to such
self-sacrificing effort on the part of
the juvenile population.

Alatt Johasss to 5psak Next
Saturday Night.

County Attorney S. G. Murphy
was the four minute man at che
Princess Theatre last Saturday even
ing. His talk was for whole-hea arted
compliance with saving regulations
that have been given the people to
follow. He said:
I'm liberty bond investments, in
war stamp purchases, in observance
of wheatless and meatless days the
individual performs i patriotic duty
and helps his Government much, but
he helps himself a. great deal more.
Willing acceptance by the whole peo-
pie of the many little duties that
may be performed without hardship,
is necessary for the success Of this
war;" .-". ..
To illustrate what the sum total
of the small savings mean in their
effect upon the war he quoted offic-
ial figures to show that the saving of
one teaspoonful Of sugar a day for
a year by each person in the United
States would aggregate many mil.
lions of dollars enough to build a
fleet of 1000 airships. Such fleet,
he said, woald turn the tide of bat
tie in favor of the allies.
He advocated cooperation by the
people in all lines of activity to win
the war, and said that it is for each
of us to ask ourselves what part we
are to play and how we are to share
ill the honor of this great effort so
necessary, not only for the salvation
Of our country but of the world.
Miss Elizabeth Hices delighted the
audience with beautiful rendering
of "Laddie in Kahki," and in response
to an enthusiastic encore gave "For-

LIMIT or PARCEL POST
Farm Table Plan Of M.rteting
Urged 81 the Postal
Department.

The weight limit Of parcel post
has been increased to seventy pounds
for the first three zones and fifty
pounds beyond. This change offers
many advantages to postal patrons.
The post-office department urges
that the farm-to-table plan of mar
keting be adopted as extensively as
possible. While the shipment Of pro-
duce by mail has been gradually In
creasing it is not up to the point
where it should be in order to be of
real economical value both to pro-
ducer and consumer.
The postmaster at Minneapolis has
worked out good plan whereby the
smaller: post offices in Minnesota are
enabled to cooperate with the post
master at Minneapolis in building up
a farm-to-table parcel post business
which may possibly be Of advantage
to- people Of this community. His
idea is that those who have farm
products to sell which can be ship
ped by parcel post make application
through their local postoffice stating
what products they have for sale,
which applications will be forward
ed to the postmaster at Minneapolis
who will see that they are placed in
the hands of people who are desirous
Of PURCHASING direct
The parcel post rate to Minneapo-
lis is not high, six cents for the first
pound and two cents for each addi-
tional pound.
An arrangement of this kind If
worked out successfully, will accom-
plish the following results:
l. More revenue to the govern
ment.
2. Increased prices for producers. .
3. Better and cheaper food for
consumers. ..-
f.. Encouragement to greater pro-
duction.
I S. Conservation of food wasted for
lack of adequate means of produc-
tion and marketing.
Anyone interested may call at the
post. office and let me explain this
plan more fully.

INDIAN MONEY CAN BE USED
TO PURCHASE BONDS

Moneys in the hands of Indian su-
perintendents belonging to minor In
dians can be used in the purchase of
Liberty Bonds where the parents or
guardian so desire, according to In
dian Superintendent M. D. Archi-
quette of Grand Portage. He says he
has written to parents of children
having money in his care and the re-
sponse for the purchase of bonds
has been very satisfactory.
This is very good plan, both as
a business proposition and as pa
triotic act. All Indians having mon
ey with the superintendent should
avail themselves of this opportunity.
