BURNQUIST LEADS
IN EARLY RETURNS
METROPOLITAN DISTRICTS co
STRONG FOR PRESENT
EXECUTIVE
OTHER CANDIDATES ON SAME
TICKET RUN BETTER THAN
BURNQUIST

At o'clock yesterday afternoon &C
cording to reports received from St.
Paul. Burnquist was leading Lindbergh
for governor by over 100000 votes. Ac-
cording to tabulated returns from 1879
voting precincts Burnquist, had received
108,094 and Lindbergh 67,308 votes.
There are still 1897 precincts to hear
from, most of which are from the rural
districts. Lindbergh is running we'll in
the rural districts but it is hardly to be
supposed that he will be able to overcome
the lead which Burnquist had at 400
o'clock yesterday afternoon.
Lead Will Diminish.
At Non-partisan League Headquarters
those in charge were not willing to con-
cede the nomination of Burnquist but
admitted that it was going to be almost
next to impossible to get enough votes
in the rural districts to overcome
Governor Burnquist's lead, although
practically all the reports now coming
in are in Lindbergh's favor and will
eventually greatly reduce the majority
of Governor Burnquist even if they
should not overcome it.
Cities Go For Burnquist. =
According to latest advices Ramsey
County rolls up majority of over 1000
for Burnquist and it is expected that
Hennepin County will give him MAORI
ty of between 5000 and 10000. Ralph
E. Crane who has the endorsement of
the Non-partisan League for Lieutenant
Governor has developed considerable
strength and it is barely possible that he
may secure the nomination for this office.
Other Candidates Do Better.
All of the other Burnquist ticket can
didates will be nominated by even larger
majorities than the one Governor Burn
quist will eventually have. +. *
Election returns for the county So
far as they are complete at time of print
ing will be found on pages of this issue.
Incomplete returns from the County
give Lindbergh majority of at least
1000. The Democratic race has almost
become extinct in Brown County.

Making Democracy Safe


One of the themes. discussed was:
'Big armies are engaged in making the
world safe for democracy, so the Sunday
School army must be trained to make
democracy safe for the world When our
boys return home from the trenches
as victors and find the world a goddess
world their victories have partly been in
vain. The Sunday School is an agency
to make democracy safe for the world
THE person is not an educated person
who leaves religion out of his school
curriculum. Ignorance is the enemy
of democracy and individualism weakens
democracy. We must act as a unit,
in one solid mass, in order to win this
war to make the world safe for dem
ocracy, likewise must all the people act
as one unit to make democracy safe for
the world.
"The greatest traitor is the man or
woman who lifts his finger against
our public school. Such should be
interned. Keep commercialism, politics
and religion out of our public schools,
and we will find that people of all creeds
will more largely patronize our public
schools.
Trained leadership, trained teachers
is the imperative need in. the Sunday
Schools just as it is in the public schools
and the commercial world. You cannot
saw wood with hammer nor can you
train boys and girls in the Sunday School
in right living by unskilled teachers.
The life you live is the lesson you teach.
1t is better to put ten men to work than
to do the work of ten men. We have a
fourfold life: A social life, a mental
life and spiritual life. If any one of
the four elements is lacking our life is
not complete. Religious education of
the whole people is vital in making
democracy safe for the world
Echo Meeting Later.
Plans are now being made to hold a
so-called State Sunday School Echo
Meeting in the near future in one of the
church parlors in this city at which time
those who were in attendance at the
Worthington Sunday School Convention
are to give reports and all Sunday School
workers interested will be welcome. The
date and place will be announced later.

WAR BRIDES" NOT
SUFFICIENT EXCUSE
NEWLY MARRIED MEN MUST
HAVE OTHER DEPENDENTS
THAN WIVES
NEW RULE DESIGNED TO SEE
THAT NO ONE ESCAPES
SERVICE

Monday Sheriff Julius received the
latest amendments to the selective
service regulations defining dependency
on account of marriage. There are
about nine married men here who may
be affected by these new rulings and the
board will take up and pass on all married
men of Class to determine whether
they should be transferred to Class 2.
The rules promulgated are: (a) The
fact of dependency resulting from the
marriage of registrant who has become
81 years of age since June 9Th, 1917,
and who has married since the date of
the introduction of the joint resolution
in Congress requiring his registration,
to-wit: January 18th, 1918, will be
disregarded as ground for deferred
classification.
(b) If registrant who has attained
the age of FL since June 9Th, 1917 and
who has contracted marriages ubsequent
to the date of the enactment of the
Selective Service law, to-wit: May
18th, 1917, but on or prior to January
18th, 1918, claims deferred classification
on the ground Of dependency resulting
from his marriage, the fact of dependency
resulting from his marriage will be dis
regarded as a ground for deferred CLASH
fcation, unless the dependent is a child
Of q
prior to June 9th, 1918, in which case
such registrant upon satisfactory proof
being made shall be classified in Class 2.
(c) If a registrant, other than one who
has attained the age Of 81 years since
June 9Th, 1917, who has contracted
marriage since May 18th, 1917, claims:
deferred classification on the ground Of
dependency resulting from his marriage,
the fact Of depend resulting from his
marriage will be disregarded as ground
for deferred classification, unless the de-
pendent is child Of the marriage, born
or unborn on or before June 9th, 1918.
in which case such registrant upon
satisfactory proof being made shall be
placed in Class 2. ...a
Must Not Evade Service.
(d) Nothing contained in this amend
ment to Rule V shall be construed as
requiring the transfer to Class q Of any
registrant who has been finally classified
in Glass / on the affirmative finding that
his marriage since May 18th, 1917 was
made with the primary view Of evading
military service.

are Just as disastrous In economic and
Industrial systems as in affairs OF
state. The freedom of the individual
is vital in democracy, but equally so
Is Its necessary limitation Of noninter-
ference with the liberty Of others. And
this principle must hold in financial
and commercial as well as in personal
relations. The freedom for which orr
fathers eontended was freedom of the

War Must Bring Great Changes.
The great war must bring many
great changes. Behind every war
turks a revolution" We may see uni
versal revolution or universal collapse.
The precepts of Jesus and the religion
associated with his name must have
none. The hope OF the world is that
this meaning is real and that, the
inevitable social revolutions may he
bloodless. while the institutions they
sweep away may be precisely those
which most impede human advance
ment.
Democracy may not necessarily
build up great nations, but permanent
greatness can rest on no other founda-
ton. For the future the people must
indeed be everything.
In the prophetic words Of Barbusse:
'"The 3O.00O,OO0 slaves hurled upon
one another in the mud of war by
guilt and error shall uplift their hui
man faces and at last reveal the germ
of determining will. The future is
in the hands of these slaves. The al

those whose numbers and whose mis-
cry alike are Infinite will transform

Removals.

The Hague.-From irrefutable evi
dence obtained by the New York Times
correspondent, 1t Is impossible to close
ones eyes to what is going on In the
hospitals and prisoners camps in Ger
many. 1t is mistake to believe that
the treatment of prisoners and wound
ed in Germany has improved. On the
contrary, it is as bad as it ever was.
even worse.
The punishments inflicted are cruel
and inhuman. AS is well known, pris-
oners are absolutely dependent upon
parcels for food and clothing. A fa-
vorite punishment Is to withhold these
from whole camp or from large bod
les of prisoners. 1t has been estab-
lished beyond doubt that prisoners are
employed behind the front and are un-
der shellfire, in defiance of The Hague
agreement of 1917.
Some prisoners never reach a camp
In Germany for six months, meanwhile
receiving no parcels of food. Their
condition on arrival at camp, broken
down and starving, is pitiable.

The evidence doesn't tend to show
that American prisoners are receiving
any preferential treatment. 1t is re-

populace. AT Giessen, where, it would
seem, American prisoners were kept on
two separate occasions, they were pro-
hibited any intercourse, even by sign
language, with other prisoners and
were not allowed to receive parcels
or gifts from them.
British prisoners at Giessen asked
II they could give parcels to Ameri-
cans and finally received permission
to do so the following day. But the
next day the American prisoners were
moved away early In the morning.
British prisoners were able to de-
tect Americans who had been captured
any length of time by their appear
ance and by the state Of their clothes.
Until parcels for them arrived from
Berne their state was deplorable.

when he applied for enlistment at the
British Canadian recruiting mission.
Logan filed out an application blank
and gave his occupation as profession

The clerk looked up. Don't believe
it?" inquired Logan. "Give me your
pen"
1t was the only one the clerk had,
so he couldn't spare 1t for the test.
However. Logan could not pass the
physical examination. 1t was found
that his peculiar diet necessitated op-

son, and surgeons said he could not
stand the strain of long marches.
Logan was disappointed. "And I
thought / was going to have chance
to bite the kaiser's mailed fist" he
said as he walked out
