bail, the follower of Old John Bar
leycorn was tucked away in a cell
because he could not or would not
produce $500 in cash for bail.
When tried, last Thursday, he
was fined the full $500.
Walsh is chap with wild and
lawless record. It is stated that
he once served 80 days in the Carl
ton county Jail for breaking liq-
uor laws at Moose Lake. At other
times, he was fined $50 and $500,
respectively, for lifting the lid
in Superior. At still another time
Walsh was fined $25 for fight

to arrest him for being drunk.

Walsh has been running the
Crystal restaurant at 428 Tower
avenue. He also has a rooming
house next to the Mission. It is
alleged that John j. has been max
ing several hundred dollars a
day by conducting blind piggeries.
For a long time, the police could
not catch Walsh in the act. He
was bold, yet cunning and clever.
In his restaurant, he kept the
booze in a tea kettle as well as in
a pitcher.
September 10, detective Mead
and patrolman Witness invaded
the Walsh premises. He tried that
old stunt Of knocking water
pitcher over in the sink, but the
officers grabbed it in time to save
a mediocum of blind pig booze.
A search also developed small
bottles of booze, whiskey labels,
booze in a fireless cooker and a
bottle of red-eye in a pocket Of
coat hanging on the wall.
Walsh denied that keys in the

PR0CTOR'S SCHOOL HEAD
DENIES NASTY CHARGES
Hearing Held Last Friday With State superinten-
dent Schulz, Inspector Flynn County Attorney
Greene and School Board Present.

$1,000 a year, but that the new
board promptly reconsidered and
Topped off that material increase.
It is understood that all of the
present board but one has been
against a further retention of
Sup. Grubbs. Under the contract,
summary dismissal must be by a
unanimous vote of the board and
this one member not only has pre-
vented that but has declared, so
it is alleged, that he would spend
$500 to defend the old superin-
tendant.
Up to the time these lines are
written, no decision has been given
by the state authorities. If it is
against Supt. Grubbs, that ends
his connection with the Proctor
schools or any other schools in this
state.
If the board upholds the super
intendent, then he can demand re-
instatement, four more years Of
service, or compensation under his
contract.
The case seems to be based on
the following points, viz:
1.-Have the girls given reliable
testimony, and if so, did or did not
the defendant violate law, decency
and propriety in his physical ex-
animation Of that one particular
witness? ...-
2.-Was Supt. Grubbs war
ranted in making physical exam
nations and tests under authority
of the Proctor board of educa-
ton?
3-If the other girls gave cred
ible testimony, was Supt. Grubbs
warranted in requiring them to
take off waists or MILDLY blouses
to facilitate measurements and
tests9 And was the jealous old
educator warranted in questioning
them as to their sexual health and
development?
AS these lines are written, the
Rip-saw is informed, Supt. Grubbs
is in Proctor and the members of
the school board have not revised
their respective individual opin-
ions in the matter.
What the state board Of educa-
ton will decide, cannot be told
until it's decision is received.

conducts what was formerly
known as the Hogan hotel, now
the Collins.
AL Smith, a hardened offender,
operating on Banks, off Tower
avenue, was fined $500 for third
offense and had to 60 to jail be-
cause profits were not enough
to meet his fine.
There have been many arrests
the past two weeks for violations
Of the dry ordinance. Most of the
accused get released on bail,
ranging from $1OO to 5000, and
they usually end up with pleas Of
guilty. That means a fine Of
about 500 for the first offense.
Peter Tobin was fined $500 some
time ago for lifting the dry lid
and an automobile confiscated.
His attorney, Henry Wilson, has
decided to appeal the case, which
is taken to mean that the validity
of the present dry ordinance will
be tested.
So far, no appeals have gone
farther than the Superior court,
where the ordinance has always
been upheld. What would happen
in the state supreme court must
be found out by actual appeal.

FOURTH LIBERTY LOAN CAMPAIGN
BEGINS SATURDAY, SEPT. q

women of the country did efficient organized
work which greatly contributed to the success
of the loan. The men in the army and navy
worked for and subscribed largely to the loan.
The third Liberty Loan campaign opened on
April g. 1913, one year exactly after our en-
trance into the war, and closed on May 4. The
bonds of this issue bear IA per cent interest
and run for 10 years, are not subject to redemp-
ton prior to maturity, and carry no conversion
privilege. The loan was announced for $3,000,-
100000, but the right was reserved to accept all
additional subscriptions Seventeen million
subscribers subscribed for 81, ITO 019 $50 of the
bonds, all of which was allotted.
A great feature of this loan was it's very wide
distribution among the people and throughout
the Union and the fact that the country dis
tricts promptly and heavily subscribed to the
loan, in great measure making up their quotas
earlier than the cities. Secretary McAdoo pro-
nounced this loan the soundest of national
financing.
A little over year ago there were some $780,
600 United States bondholders; there are now
somewhere between 100000 and 25,000,00O.
Awakened patriotism has made the American
people saving people, bond-buying people.

incalculable benefit. Not less incalculable is
their effect on the destiny of the world as our
ships plow the seas and our men and material

The fourth Liberty Loan campaign will be-
gin Saturday, September %, and close October
10. No American doubts its success no good
American will fail to contribute to it's success.

Crawford left Duluth for Crow Wing,
Mimi, to exhume and bring to the
Zenith City the body of Rev. Father
Laurentius Lautezan, a priest who
persisted in a storm in 1858 when on
his way from Red Lake Falls to Crow
Wing to minister unto a sick man.
Calvary cemetery had just been
completed and awaited dedication.
The body of Father Lautezan, buried
in the reservation for priests and SIS
tiers, was the first body consigned to
the new burial place. The removal
of the body from Grow Wing to CAL
vary was directed by Bishop McGol-
rick, who personally conducted the
services. About so priests were pres
ent and the new cemetery was con-
secrated just before the interment.

treasurer of Koochiching county,
George A. Elder, q pioneer finan.
cier of Duluth, was found guilty
by jury and fined $4,000, or
three years in county jail, by

Recently, at Brainerd, Judge
McClenahan entered an order, re-
ducing Elders fine from S., 900
to $4,000, after paying which,
three pending indictments were
dismissed. Mr.. Elder also satisfied

THOMPSON-POLSKI ROAD rs
ALMOST MPASSABLE.

Settlers, employees Of the D., M.
& N, and other patrons of the
Thompson-Polski road are much
displeased because the county does
not put that highway in repair.
The Thompson-Polski road was
built about 80 years ago. 1t is
the boundary line between dis
tricts controlled by commission
ers Becks and Swanstrom, re-
spectively. Neither one seems in
clined to put the road in properly
passable condition, SO those who
wish to use it declare.
One farmer says that commits
sioner Overton was the one Off
cial who showed proper consider
alton to that highway; that he
was the one man who did practi-
cal work on it; and that nothing
has been done on it since his adj
ministration. There are mudholes
too deep and numerous to men
ton. In places, the bushes have
grown up so that their branches
touch across the wagon track.
The Thompson-Polski road
runs from the Morris Thomas road
to point near the Proctor round
house. It is an outlet for the Her
mantown region. About 20 D., M.
& N. employees use it, or would like
to use it, to say nothing Of many
farmers in back as we'll as the gen.
eral public.
Plated acreage tributary to
that road is inactive and unim-
proved because of the sad condi-
ton Of this highway. If it were
put in proper repair much of this
plated acreage would be i'm
proved and developed, thereby
adding to the rural population
and the taxable property. A
large number of workers at Proc
tor and patrons of the West Du-
luth stores will not be satisfied
until the Thompson-Po lski road
is put in proper condition.

The United States entered the war on April
6, 1917. Eighteen days later by a practically
unanimous vote congress passed the Liberty
Loan Bond bill.
On May the first Liberty Loan was an
nounced, on May ID the details were made pub
lie, and on the 18th the campaign began and
closed one month later. The issue was for
$4,000, 00O, 900, the bonds bearing 31a per cent
interest and running for 1880 years. The
bonds carried the conversion privilege, emitting
the holder, if he chose, to convert them into
bonds Of later issue bearing a higher rate of
interest. Four and half million subscribers
from every section of the country, representing
every condition. race, and class Of citizens, SUBJ
scribed for more than $3,000000,000 of the
bonds. Only $2,000,00O,000 was allotted.
The outstanding features of the first Liberty
Loan were the promptness with which it was
arranged and conducted, the patriotism of the
newspapers, banks corporations, organizations,
and the people generally in working for its sue
cess, and the heavy oversubscription of more
than so per cent. Another notable feature was
that there was no interruption to the business
of the country occasioned by the unprecedented
demand upon it's money resources.
The second Liberty Loan campaign opened
on Oct. 1, 1917 and closed on October q. The
bonds of this issue bear per cent interest and
run for 1925 years. They carry the conversion
privilege. It was announced that 30 per cent
of the oversubscription would be taken. Nine
million subscribers subscribed to 3d. Gil, 532, 900
of the bonds, an oversubscription of 81 per cent.
Only $3,80S, 766 $50 of the bonds was allotted
This campaign was marked with the same en-
thusiastic support Of the public as it's prede-
cessor The labor and fraternal organizations
were especially active in this campaign and the

SET COSTLY PACE.

The main opposition to Henry
Ford's candidacy for the United
States senate comes from those
who hate him because he was q
pioneer in paying fair wages to
workingmen. The Fat Boys can
never forgive him for that, hence
they and their clackers call him
all kinds of things excepting suit
able timber for the senate. They
are afraid that if he succeeds in
getting to the senate he will vote
in favor of a square deal for the
toiler.

can fill the most sensitive tooth with
out pain, having all the appliances,
drugs, vitalized air and hot air for
that class of work."
Years afterwards, citizen Cullum
undoubtedly found his possession,
knowledge and use of "hot air" very
helpful in catching the votes of the
people. 1t is suspected that, for this
legislative campaign, citizen Cullum
has a few tanks stored away in his
cellar, available and suitable for ex-
tracing the teeth of any opposition
ito his political ambitions.
