THE COUNTY SUPERINTENDENCY
Atwater, Mimi, Oct. %, 1918.
Editor Wllmar Tribune: :.


Editor, Willmar Tribune: :.
After reading the different arguments
about the county SUPPLEMENTARY, we
would be much interested to know if
the voters of Kandiyohi county really
favor turning down a good man that
have proven himself faithful, and taken
care of his official duties in an entirely
satisfactory way to the majority of
the people. simply because he have
held this office for NUMBER Nm Of years.
moved into our county only to seek the
Office of County School Superintend-
ent. We have been told that he has
been a resident Of the county less than
year and half at present. Yet this
man comes and asks to have handed
over to him one of the most important
erickson have been attending to his
official duties, Mr.. o. o. Ulvin have been
spending months canyassing the county,
ing pleasant little batteries to anyone
that would listen. Is this good reason
for giving him the Office he asks for?
II 50. we might as we'll hand out some
er that had the conceit to come around
and ask for it. We believe that very
few Of the voters of the county are so
their vote from Mr. Frederickson to Mr.
Ufvin, simply because the latter gent
yleman had the time and money to spend
and call personally on such voter, while
Mr.. Frederickson could not spend the
time from the Office for making such
calls. In fact Mr.. Frederickson would
been much to blame if he had done so.
Personally we feel certain that there
are many gentlemen and ladies also that
are capable and willing to fill the Office
of county school superintendent who
have been doing school work in this
county, some for very many years, that
are much more entitled to the office to
succeed Mr.. Frederickson, then Mr.. o.
@. Ulvin is under the present circum-
stances.
The majority of the voters are fair
and honest and can always be depended
on II not mislead by false stories cir
culated. 1t is for them to decide the
question. {
Sincerely,

Charcoal Made In Dominica.

Charcoal is much used in Dominica,
probably because there is plenty Of
cheap labor to burn 1T. Most of it is
made far up the rivers and brought
down then in heavy native dugout ca
noes. The charcoal is first packed in
little bark baskets about the size of
strawberry basket. Several hundred
Of these are then loaded upon the boat
and tied down with some sort of fiber:
a man takes his place in the stern and
the craft starts on a long journey at
the rate of perhaps mile an hour

Combine TO ELECT L0BECK
Farmers and Workers In Seventh Dis.
trlct Find Him More Accept
able Than voIstead.

In the seventh congressional dis
trict, farmers and laborers are oombin-
ing on e. q. Lobeck for United States
congress. He is the candidate Of the
National party. No official action has
been taken by organizations Of farm
ers or workers, tho combination in
favor Of Lobeck being entirely the out
growth Of the situation resulting from
the primaries.
Just before the primaries. Lobeck
said that If DIR. Shipstead was nomi.
mated on the republican ticket, It
would be a toss-up to see which Of the
two men would withdraw from the
race In the election, since both stood
for tho same things. Shipstead, how
ever, was defeated by Congressms
Volstead, 4 reactionary, whose recor .
In congress has not been entirely sat-
isfactory to farmers and workers.
This left Volstead and Lobeck to the
battle on Nov. 5-and the farmers and
workers merely look upon Lobeck AZ
more acceptable than Volstead.
