Offenders should be punished and

cleared of suspicion.

Offenders should be punished and
those unjustly charged should be
cleared of suspicion.
Enforcement of Law.
rigid enforcement of law and
regulations is war necessity, but
emotion should not be permitted to
sway judgment.
"The state requires policy of
firmness without faltering and the
burdens of war should be borne in
proportion to wealth and property.
Until the war is won the state
should be economical in public ex-
penditures to relieve the people of
unnecessary taxation while bearing
the burdens of the war, but the re-
sources of the state must be COM
manded to help win the war for
democracy and humanity.
"The state and citizens of the state
should consolidate all resources and
activities within the state in co-opera-
ton with the federal government in
advancing the war program.
The executive department of the
state owes to the people the estab-
lishment of a definite constructive
polio and the administration of such
policy without wavering or uncertain
ity.
1--WE have too much practical poll
tics and not enough practice, common
sense in the affairs of state as such
affairs are sometimes directed"
Will He Resign Judgeship.
The Free Press does not know
whether Judge Comstock contem-
plates resigning from the bench at
once, or later in the pre-primary
campaign. Here is an interesting pro-
vision of the constitution:
Article 6, Section II, of the con-
stitution of Minnesota, reads as
follows:
Supreme and district judges not
to hold other office-The justices of
the supreme court and the district
courts shall hold no office under the
United States, nor any other office
under this state And all votes for
either of them for any elective office
under this constitution excepting
judicial office given by the legisla-
ture or the people, during their con-
tinuance in office, shall be void.''
Should Judge Comstock resign no
doubt there are several attorneys in
.Mankato who would like to succeed
him on the bench.

Imagine a little girl who has nev- CT seen her father-at least since babyhood to his home at last only to find him so deeply en- grossed in a gambling game with some confederates that no attention is paid to the little figure waiting by the door. This is the situation faced by Marguerite Clark in the role of Marian Morgan in "The Val entine Girl" Paramount Picture produced by Famous Players and showing at the Coliseum Theatre to- night and Saturday. (Which one of you gentlemen is my father?" at length comes from the patient little girl.
