HOUSEWIVES FINED FOR Ex-
CEEDlN0 SUGAR ALLOTMENT

The earnestness of the Food Admin
istration in enforcing the sugar regu-
lations has been evidenced many times
by penalizations Of retailers, bakers
and manufacturers. Now it empha-
sizes the necessity for householders
keeping within their allotment of two
pounds per person per month by pun
fishing viOlators.
Housewives of Watertown who ex-
ceeded their allotment for July were
requested to contribute to the Red
Cross q dollar pound on every pound
they bought in excess of their allot-
ment The grocer who was careless
enough to sell them excess amounts
of sugar was also fined on the same
basis.

~ tuc VOVcTS uuU taxpayers Oh
Pine COunty:.
Having filed for the Office of
County Auditor, l thought it
would be proper for me to make
the following statement concern
ing myself and what ! think are
my qualifications for that office.
am a farmer by occupation
and live on farm east of Sand
stone and have resided there for
the last fourteen years. Since
! have resided there, besides do
ing my regular farm work, /
have served on the town board,
the school board and the board
of county commissioners and am
at the present time serving as
chairman of the last named
board. While serving on these
various boards | have devoted
considerable time and thought
to town. school and county af-
fairs. always with the end in
view of cutting down expenses
wherever it could be done and
seeing that the public got as
much as possible for its money,
and thus naturally have gained
an insight into public affairs
which | would not have had 9TH
erwise.
Because of the thought and at
tention which | have given these
matters and because of these ex-
periences, feel that | am quail
fed to fill the office Of County
Auditor and perform the duties
thereof economically and effici-
emily. and should | be elected to
that office. pledge myself to
serve you faithfully and give you
the best that is in me.
Trusting that you will see your
way clear to give me your sup
port. am,

| do and Utah and then entered the
law department Of the University Of
Minnesota from which he was graz
duated In 1894 and has been practic-
ing law in Minneapolis since that
time.
Mr.. McMillen made the following
statements:
over and above all else we must
consider the welfare of our Nation
tlrst, last and at all times. Let us
never forget the words OF our i'm
mortal Republican leader Abraham
Lincoln, when he said that 1.-THE gov
ernment of the people. by the people

have great confidence in the 10y
atty, ability and efficiency of the Re-
publican Party and IL elected / shall
vote with its members In organizing
the House OF Representatives and be
guided largely by Its opinions and
advise. Do the republicans of this
district want man to represent
them In Congress who will not make
this simple pledge:
Having spent much OF my time on
the farm my sympathy Is with the
farmer and believe that the farmer
should have the full value of the pro-
duct Of the soil and the laborer
should have the full value of the
product Of his toll.
II believe that our laws should be
SO framed as to result in the most
good to the greatest number. and I
am opposed to laws and conditions
the primary, object OF which is to
make fortunes for a few at the ex-
pense OF the masses.
II you have confidence in Mr.. Nc
Millen vote for him June 18th.

Women may vote for candi-
dates for the office of county SUI
perintendent of schools. Those
women who desire equal suf-
frage should get out and excr-
else their rights Monday, Get
out and pile up a big vote and
thereby demonstrate that equal
suffrage is desired. There are
five candidates for the office of
superintendent Of schools. one
of whom is a woman Miss Por-
tia NJ. Huber--the able assistant
in the county auditors office, and
the last one to file. Miss Huber
is we'll and favorably known and
will undoubtedly poll a good
vote thruout the county. c. w.
Colby Of Sandstone. also filed one
Of the last days. Mr.. Colby re-
ceived a splendid vote four years
ago when he opposed Mr.. Blank
enship and it is believed by many
that he will be one of the no
minees this year. Jens p. Mil
Ter Of Pine City, and l.. II. Pryor
of Hinckley. are also candidates.
We have previously mentioned
their qualifications at the time
they filed. Out of these four it
is hard matter to select the no
minees. Each will have a good
following. The fifth candidate is
Ross r. Rath of Pine City. who
is not much known outside of
the southern end of the county.
We are not personally acquainted
with him and cannot say any
thing regarding his qualifica-
tions.

there are four candidates as ap-
peared in the ballot which was
published in the American two
weeks ago. We are to vote for
one only and our choice for this
office is Adolph s. Larson Of
Sandstone. Mr.. Larson has
served three terms in the House,
with credit to himself. He is
able, alert and wide-awake. He
is ION the job" all the time and
accomplishes something; he is
yet young man and is the kind
of a lawmaker we need in order
to have something accomplished.
His three terms experience in
the House will fit him well for
the office of Senator should he
be elected.
For representative we are to
vote for two men. 1t is custom
airy that one be selected from
Chisago County and the other
from Pine; this is also a fair
shake. Our selection is. Elias
Nordgren of Sunrise. who has al
ready served two terms in the
House and L. c. Petersen of
Askov Mr.. Nordgren is a tried
man. has been a general mer-
chant for many years and is now
a farmer; he has held many min
or public Offices. He has always
received a good vote in Pine
County and will most likely
again. L. c. Petersen appears
to be very popular choice eve
rywhere and his nomination is
conceded. Mr.. Petersen is the
man who has done much for the
upbuilding of Askov and the
northern settlers. He is a tried
man, a man of ability and a hard
worker. He knows the needs of
the new settlers and will be a
valuable representative from the
northern part of Minnesota.
For county auditor our choice
is Andrew P. Edin the present
county commissioner from the
third district and chairman Of
the Board. Mr.. Edin has held
many public Offices of various
kinds and has gained an insight
into county affairs, which will
prove a valuable asset to him
should he be elected to the office
Of auditor. Mr.. Edin is a hard
worker and we believe he is we'll
qualified for the office of coun-
ty auditor.
For register of deeds either
Royal A. Hunt or Edward Halva
are good men and for the office
Of sheriff we believe that the
county can do no better than to
elect the present efficient encum-
bent, r. j. Hawley.
j. +. Therrien was appointed
Judge Of probate a few months
ago by the governor. He is ac-
tive. courteous and is on the job,
and is entitled to election.
Whoever you vote for, turn out
and vote Monday, June II.

DO YOUR DUTY

NV NV0u
Next Monday, June II. is Pri-
mary Election day, and as citi-
zens it is our duty to go to the
polls and vote. We have been
given suffrage and we should ex-
ercise that right; if we do not
we are not entitled to suffrage.
Living as we do in free land,
each and every mans vote counts
the same, and this is certainly a
thing to be deeply appreciated.
We should look upon election as
= matter Of deep concern and
especially this year when our
country is at war and there are
great things at stake. If there
ever was a time when we needed
loyal men in public office it is
now.
On the state Democratic bal
lot there is only one office to bal
lot for---that Of governor. the
candidates being Fred f. Whea-
ton and w. L. Comstock, both
loyal men. For the balance of
the offices there is only or can
didate for each. hence they do
not appear on the primary bal
lot.
In view of the fact that there
is only one office to ballot for
on the Democratic primary bal
lot many Democrats thruout the
state will call for Republican
ticket and there mark their
choice for loyal candidates. They
figure this way, that even If
they do not vote the Democratic
ballot there is bound to be one
Of their candidates nominated
for governor and either one be-
ing loyal it matters not so much
who is nominated. Loyalty is
the main issue this year and
Democrats are going to assist in
nominating our present efficient
and loyal governor. ]. A. A. Burn
auist., over Charles A. Lindbergh,
the Non-Partisan League candi-
date.
As above stated the Democrats
have only one office to ballot for
that of governor. they having
only one candidate for each of
the other Offices. Hence they
are nominated and their names
will not appear on the primary
ballot. They will be on the fall
election ballots.
For the guidance Of our read
ers and those who may not be
acquainted with candidates for
state Offices we publish list of
loyal candidates appearing on
the Republican ballot. who have
been endorsed by the Pine Coun-
ty Republican Committee. The
American also endorses all of
these candidates. They are as
