State Organization Has
a Meeting to- Improve
Minnesota Highways

Then Thousand Lakes of Minnesota
Association called a hurried meeting
in Sank Centre last Friday at the
Commercial club rooms. The meet
ing was called for one-thirty p. m.
and as many of those present were
obliged to take the 2:45 flyer, which
stopped for them, the proceedings
were rushed right off the bat, but con-
siderable business was transacted.
Not much has been heard of this or
ganization, in this part of the country
at least, but it is one of the most
effective agencies for advertising the
advantages of Minnesota's advant-
ages as a summer resort. It is an
organization Of hotel keepers and 9TH
ers interested, to advertise this state
in such a manner as to attract sum-
mer visitors. The drive is to secure
the sum of $4,000 to pay for this
advertising campaign. Five thousand
dollars of which has been already sub
scribed.
DR.. Hennemann presided over the
meeting and introduced Harrison Hat
ton, who briefly but forcibly explain.
ed the object of the Association and
the purpose of the meeting.
He was followed by R. M. Graves
manager Of Ryan Hotel, who spoke in
behalf of the hotel keepers.
The "only" Ruggles, proprietor OF
Hotel Idylewilde in Osakis next took
the floor and explained how this
money was to be raised. He stated
that the state had been divided into
districts and the different towns hac
been assessed according to the adj
vantages to be derived. Mr.. Ruggles
has been assigned to the cities OF
Glenwood assessed at $3.50; Osakis
$3.50; Sank Centre, $500; Long Prai.
RE, 500; Alexandria, $1,000 and
Fergus Falls $1,000. Of course he
will raise the money or the cities
mentioned will have to keep "Rug" all
summer and it will be cheaper to pay
the assessment.

CAPT. LAMB PROMOTED.

In letter received this week by
his mother, Mrs. P. Lamb of this city,
Capt. Harold L. Lamb, of Camp Tay-
lor, spoke of his recent promotion to
the rank of major. The news was not
only a pleasant surprise to his mo-
Their but to the doctor as well, for the
advance had been entirely unlocked
for. The new duties engaged thus
will not require his removal from his
present location, but will give him
more of the outside work which he so
greatly prefers. Naturally Sank
Centre is proud of the distinction that
has come to her Indirectly, through
the merits of another of the "boys."

Pres. JIG. BROWN
: : MAKES ADDRESS
NORMAL PRESIDENT PUTS PLAIN
- FACTS BEFORE PEOPLE
OF THE CITY,
new PHASE OF WAR SHOWN
DECLARES THAT NATION MUST
PREPARE FOR THE COMING
RECONSTRUCTION.

Last evening, President J. C. Brown
of the St. Cloud Normal appeared for
the first time before a Sank Centre
audience. On account of the extreme.
ly short notice given before the lee
ture, comparatively small number
were present. However, the evening
was by no means wasted as the two
or three hundred people were given
new light on practically untouched
side of the war. DR.. Brown could
not but have felt the deep effect which
his talk made.
5 The speaker is not what one would
call an orator. Rather he is man
with mathematical mind who figures
things out relatively and who feels
that to place a matter before a body
of people by means of facts and Illus
tration is the most effective. He is
one who selects a theme and sticks to
it; who comes back to the theme and
often repeats it, that his listeners do
not lose it's sense.
L. DIOWh was SSCuT0u uIlQ6F the
auspices of the War Savings Society,
but touched only briefly on this topic.
In keeping with the previously mem
toned mathematical tendency, his
plea for the liberal purchase of War
Savings Stamps and the generosity of
the government in giving A per cent
compounded quarterly he gave these
figures. If $1.00 were placed at A
per cent simple interest at the time
of the birth of Christ the interest
this year would amount to $58.18. If
this same dollar had been compounded
quarterly at A per cent, the interest
would have amounted to three sep
tillion dollars or seven times the
combined wealth of the world today.
He believed, he said, that all will buy
stamps and prosecute the war to a
successful conclusion.
After this preliminary, the speaker

well rendered and which made the
evening the more pleasant; the long
suffering Home Guards, who patiently
gave up their seats and drilled out

who donated to the sale; and the
auctioneers, who made the evening
end with a rousing climax.
AS for the film itself, it was an en-
tire chit" 1t would have been hard
to have found a more suitable picture
and the class feel that the people were
entirely satisfied.

SEE FOR YOURSELF

p HOSE who believe in fair
VI, play will resent the un-
true charge that. Presi-
dent Wilson has given high war
positions only to men of his
own party. The truth is the
very reverse of this. Almost
all the big positions have gone
to republicans. Hughes, Taft,
Hoover, Garfield, Schwab,
Wilcox. Vanderlip and Stetti-
MUS, all republicans have had
high positions. What demo-
Gratis have had jobs equal to
those given these men?
~~Ss-oe-s-S-s-o-s-o
President Wilson has not
asked that "only democrats"
be returned to congress. He
merely asks for a majority in
each house so he can be as
suried of unity. To hold the
senate he needs the Oregon
senatorship. The election in
this state may decide the issue.

AN UNUSUAL RACE

~ HE contest batween West
VI and McNary for the SEN
atorship is one of the
most unusual on record. While
Governor of Oregon West ap-
pointed his present opponent to
a seat on the supreme bench.
1t was McNary's first appear
ance in the public eye and
therefore it may be said that
he owes his fame to the man he
is now running against. After
being defeated for a renomina-
tion to the supreme bench by
III. L. Benson, Judge McNary
served as the Hughes state
campaign manager in 1916. He
was appointed to the senate by
Governor Withycombe to fill
the vacancy caused by the
death of Senator Harry Lane.
The senatorial campaign has
been free from attacks by
either candidate upon the
other. Since the primary cleo
ton last spring West has been
in Europe most of the time on
a mission for the shipping
board and McNary has been
attending to his duties at
Washington.
The personal records of both
candidates are free from stain.
In the governorship West was
a very vigorous official. He
usually accomplished what he
set QUITO do and performed
valuable service for the state.
That his record is a good one is
attested by the fact that dur
ing this campaign it has not
been assailed.
The West record for achiev-
ing results is netting him con-
siderable support in the sena-
torial race. Irrespective of
politics many people desire a
man in the senate who can ac-
complish things and for this
purpose they have much faith /
in the ex-governor. Some are
pointing out that while Sena-
tor McNary's intentions are
good, his record, with respect
to Oreeon's needs, consists
chiefly Of things he hoped to do
rather than of things he has
accomplished for the state.
1t is conceded by all, how
ever, that the senatorship is to
be decided on the Wilson issue
rather than on the personal
records of the candidates. The
Wilson followers are behind
West and the anti Wilson sup
port, save where diverted for
other reasons, will be for Nc !
Nary.
