The Morris Commercial Club are
after the Great Northern officials to
remedy the train service in their city.
They have appointed a live wire
committee and everything. They are
also asking for a new depot, but have
been fatty told that is out of the
question at present because of the
company's hands being tied up by
government control.
Regarding the improving of their
train service the Morris business men
are urging that No. 4, which reaches
Sank Centre at seven o'clock each
evening be taken off this line and run
through Morris. The Morris Tribune
claims that District Passenger Agent
Hubert has agreed to recommend
this change to the proper officials.

BIG VICTORY LOAN
Meeting SATURDAY
DISTRICT CHAIRMAN A. r. ROC.
ERS AND OTHERS WILL SPEAK
IN SAUK CENTRE.
AMERICAN ACE ALSO SPEAKS
LARGE AUDITORIUM SHOULD BE
PACKED FOR WORTH WHILE
MEETING.

.Germany's admission of crushing
defeat on Nov. IL 1918, after four
years of hitter endeavor to dominate
the world was after all only another
repetition of history.
Historians in the Ninth District
Victory Loan headquarters have
revealed the fact that the Great De-
feat of 1918 was the elimination of
the 41st invasion French territory
by Teutonic hordes.
The desire for place in the sun has
been agitating the Boche breast for
centuries but the first visible manifes-
tation came 100 years before the time
of Christ. That first violation of
French soil away back in the dawn of
history was made with 100000 men.
But the spirit of France that con-
quered in the 10th century asserted
itself in 100 B. G. and in great
battle at Aixen-P rovense, the Boche
were defeated. s
Not daunted by their first setback,
the Teutons overran French territory
again 60 years later in the Jura dis
tricts with 100000 men. This army
was also driven back. Within six
years, 100000, more Germans made a
third assault on their neighbors> and
invaded the Meuse and the Disc coun-
tIy. -
Invading France grew to be such a
habit that from the earliest times
down to 1914, the Germans invaded
France once about every 20 years.
Chronologically, the invasions We're
staged as follows: 100 B. c., 40 B.
c., 81 B. c., 2z4, 275, SOL, 800, 3s2,
400, 40, Alb, SEQ, S58, 97s, 1124, 1214,
1913, 1921, sl523, 1886, 1544, 1852,
1853, 1867, 1869, 1915, 1887, 1886,
1874, 1915, 1907, 1908, 1744s 1892,
1898, 1914, 1915, 1870, and 1914.
The Ninth Federal District has
stood splendidly back of the United
States government, in the World War
not only with men but means. Mime
sofa has not been behind the other
states of the federated district in
the work, and Stearns county has
gone over the top in splendid shape
in all the drives; she has given heavily
of her best Young manhood and many
homes in the country are shrouded in
sorrow because thear loved ones madG
the supreme sacrifice for humanity's
sake.
Speaking in round dollars the
Ninth Federal Reserve district has
supplied S$1S5 ,6eaOO0 for the various
war activities. In spite of this heavy
drain the district was never as we'll
off financially as it is today. 'Stearns
county shares her proportionate pros
perity with thesbalance of the district.

finances to wind up the affairs Of the
great conflict. Two ways only. are
open to the government to raise
money. First by bond issues in which
case the purchaser will receive every
dollar back with fair rate of interest.
Second, the money can be raised by
direct taxation. The taxes are already
burdensome and there is no prospect
of a let-up for several years. How
ever what the average individual is
paying today will be very light COM
pared to what they will be compelled
to contribute without any return, if
the bond issue falls.
It is lamentable that the previous
bond issues are temporarily slightly
below par That they will be at a
premium very soon after conditions
are Stabilized cannot be doubted.
Every other bond issued by the United
States government bearing much
lower rates of interest than any Of
the Liberty Loan issues have gone
above par years before maturity.
Minnesota's allotment in the forth
coming Victory Loan issue will be
approximately the same as in the last
loan, which means that your allotment
will be about the same. The en-
thusiasm of the war has passed and
the public viewpoint has changed.
Good citizenship and thankfulness
should put the Victory Loan over the
top very easily. The rate Of interest
the bonds will carry has not been an
