DRY FEDERATION OPENS
CAMPAIGN IN COUNTY
Meeting Held in Morris Wednesday.
Evening Ex- Governor Van SAINT
Talks

Inc opening gun in the statewide
prohibition campaign in Stevens
county was fred Wednesday evening
when Former Governor Van SAINT
chairman of the Minnesota Dry Fed
Grafton. and Senator Richard Jones
campaign manager for that organiza-
tion,- spoke at a meeting of Stevens
county people at the armory. The
meeting was presided over by J. H.
Devenney, chairman of the Stevens
County Option Committee. 1t was
not as well attended as was expected,
probably due to the fact that it was
not properly advertised, as the news
papers had not received any notice of
the meeting.
Mr.. Van SAINT said that next to
the winning of the war the prohibit
ton of the liquor traffic was the most
important issue now before the peo-
pie. He urged that the dry people
of this county organize for the fight
next fall and help write prohibition
into the state constitution.
1.-THE liquor men," said Mr.. Van
SAINT, .'are wasting food, labor and
life, the most important factors in
winning the war. The waste last
year amounted to seven billion
pounds of foodstuffs. They have no
right to starve some men by making
others drunk.
Senator Jones urged that every
effort be made to thoroughly organ
ize every precinct in the county.
"The Minnesota Dry Federation is
composed of twelve statewide or
ganizations," said Mr. Jones. "There
are about thirty representative citi--
zens on the executive committee, of
which Former Governor Van SAINT is
the chairman.
I'm some quarters it is thought
that we are going to have an easy
time putting this state dry next Nov
ember. But twenty years ago the
liquor interests fixed our state con-
stitution. Mr.. w. w. Dunn then a
member of the house of representa-
tives introduced measure, which
finally passed both houses, providing
that the Minnesota constitution
could not be amended except by
majority of all those voting at the
election. AS a consequence every
body who goes to the ballot box and
votes at all, and fails to vote on the
is. counted exactly as
though he had voted against the
amendment.
'It was admitted by Mr.. Dunn on
the floor of the house in 1897 that
this vicious provision was advocated
by himself and his associates in order
to head off prohibition at some fu-
ture time. Mr.. Dunn is now a MEM
ber of the Minnesota Senate. He is
also vice-president and attorney for
the Hamm Brewing company.
Under this unfair method Of
the state has never yet
carried an amendment when there
has been organized opposition"

NATIONAL GUARD MAY
BE ORGANIZED HERE,
Home Guard Company Will Be Used
As Nucleus If Change is
Made

I =
At meeting of the Commercial
Club held Monday evening, it was
decided that Morris should make ap-
plication for company of the Min
nesota National Guard, and the club
went on record as being willing to
back the movement and do all pos
sible to get a company here. Cap
tain P. L. Spooner of the Home
Guards has been active in trying to
get one Of the new companies To-
Gated here and put in an application
soon after the announcement was
made that a National Guard would
be organized. He, accompanied by
and Lieutenant N. vinje went
to st. Paul Wednesday to get further
information in regard to the COM
pany and find out just what would
be required.
There would be many advantages
in having company of the National
Guard here. In the first place it
would guarantee new armory cost
ting between $4,000 and $4,000
and this could be used for auditorium
purposes, something the city has
needed for a long time Besides this,
the new company would be equipped
by the federal government and recog-
nized as $. military organization.
Everything would be furnished and
the outfit for each man would be
complete in every detail.
The original regiments of Min
nesota National Guard are in service
with the Rainbow Division in France
or in training in Camp Cody
and for that reason it was thought
advisable by the state authorities to
create another organization. Conse-
orized and it is probably that sew
eral of the Home Guard companies
now organized will serve as nucleus
for the creation of the different mill
tia companies. A company will not
be authorized IN a town unless it is
believed that the organization will
be permanent and unless there are
good facilities for training and drill
ing. Already about fifty of the men,
bers Of the Morris Home Guard have
signifed their willingness to join the
new National Guard, but the new
company will need about one hundred
and nine members.
The organization of the company
means federal recognition and federal
aid in equipment and in training.
There will be special qualifications
for the officers of the organization
and physical qualifications for the
members. If the application is acted
upon favorably some of the older
members of the company here would
be excluded from participating in the
military service and those men with
in draft age would be included only
if it could be shown that there was
little likelihood that they would be
called for the National Army.
The National Guard is for the SER
vice of the federal military authori-
ties and would be subject to imme-
diate call for. the purpose of repell-
ing any invasion or que11ing disorder.
The creation of the National Guard
company does not mean that the
Home Guard is to be discouraged
but will continue to exist as hereto
fore in different communities Of the
state.
