State Capitol Notes

A review of this weeks crop Of
presidential "barkises' reminds us
that we are on the eve of perhaps the
most holly contested election this coun-
try has ever witnessed. Our republican
friends are doing their best to start a
band-wagon campaign. They are claim
ing everything, conceding nothing. l
am willing here and now to make pre-
diction that they will sec things in a
different light six months from now.
The democratic hosts will go into the
campaign with a record Of perform
ance unequaled by any other admins
tration in thehistory of the nation. If
the republicans have an idea that they
arc going up against a campaign Of
apology and negation they are making
the mistake of their lives. Democracy
militant is going out to win and you
bet they are going to do It'll
$50
The apparent efforts Of Tom Frank
son to interest the Nonpartisan League
in his candidacy have assumed pathetic
proportions Mr. Frankson and his
campaign manager, L. T. Lobdill, Of
Spring Valley, paid jim Manahan a
fratcrnal call at his offices in the Pion-
eer building today. I don't suppose
that 1 shall be wide Of the mark if [
infer that the object Of the visit was
to interest the leaders Of the Nonparti-
san League in the candidacy of Mr..
Frankson for the republican nomination
as governor. Of course, I may be off
on this, but, anyway, it sounds plaus-
ible. DEMOS.

Fairmont Sentinel: Militarism is
running rampant in the G. O. P. Gen
eral Wood, with his sword and pistol,
and his declaration that there must be
more wars, is the favorite Of the big
bosses, especially those who want to
send our boys to Mexico to clear the
way for the despoilers.
Wood will mean war, it not with
Mexico, then with Japan or some other
bellicose country.
General Wood strength lies in the
fact that there is no candidate OF viz
ility against hinl-no single character
that arouscs the enthusiasm OF the
country. In such situation the bosses
have easy shedding, and General Wood
stands for the things they want-hug
war appropriations, army contracts;
titles of authority, classes, favorltsm,
pomp and glory.
Things are surely going Woods way
just now like a house on fire. If 1t
continues for the next few months he
will sweep the boards. This will make
militarism the issue-the big issue,
positive and well defined. The mothers
of millions of soldiers will have voice
in the next campaign and there will be
no more potent influence in the contest.
Sentiment is stronger than political
bosses. Sentiment is against war and
the candidate who embodies that idea
will go down in overwhelming defeat.

SAYINGS OF LARRY Ho.

Their is no quarantine lag against the
contagion Of joy.
Hope is the alarm clock that wakens
happiness on time.
No game is worth playing if it is
played only for prize.
The critic has no job until somebody
else has done something.
If any sorrow in the world does not
touch you, then you are in dangerous
way.
Wouldn't you hate to think that nc
person in all the world was grateful fol
your life?
Unless you are happy and radiant
folks won't easily believe that the
things you believe are worth while.
fustered by criticism; but sometimes
pretty wise men get tlustercd by
praise.
No life is so desolate that somewhere
within it there is not some CLEAN OF
hope or joy or love for which to thank
God.
A man is lost the moment he begins
to think of consequences. Conse
quenccs should be allowed to shift fol
themselves.
The kaiser has nothing to do today
but trim his beard. He himself was
trimmed year ago. Another cause
for Thanksgiving.
Honest fun is not frivolous thing
but an eternal thing. Keep your fun
free from the death that turks in cheap
ness and triviality.
Ambition is fine thing in it's way; it
becomes dangerous only because men
sometimes allowit to be the master in
stead Of the servant.
The thing that really makes man
lonely is to see some noble and worthy
cause magnifcently marching along
and to know that he has no part in its
triumph.
The war was fought against autoc-
racy. Let us not forget that we have
a whole lot of autocracy right here at
home. Maybe in your house and my
house. For what is autocracy9 1t is
sclfshness. The man who demands any
thing, not on merit, but by reason of
his power to get what he demands, is an
autocrat. The man who wants anything
that he is willing to take at the cost
Of somebody else not having it, is an
autocrat. The one sure way not to be
an autocrat is to live life dominated
by the spirit Of love and service. Let s
put down autocracy and cnthrone the
Justice of brothcrly kindness.
We talk much these days of Amer
canization but sometimes seem to lack
understanding Of what it is. We can
not put so men into a room and give
them a lecture on Americanism and get
very far with it. We will make men
Americans when our own living is such
that they can read in us that to be
American means to be just, kindly, hui
man, happy, serviceable. We will make
men Americans when We give them ou1
open hands and hearts, welcome them tc
our interest and affection, let them
share all our hopes and dreams. They
must capture its meaning from us by
contagion.

Mahnomen Pioneer: The Sank Cen
tire Herald says that The American Le-
gion is supporting General Wood for the
presidency; and that the American Le-
gion will elect the next president. TINS
is real news as one of the cardinal prln.
ciples of the Legion is that it IS not
political organization. A few breaks
like this Offset the good of a splendid
editorial on the Legion in parallel

The record indicates that from July
], 1918, to November l, 1919, the United
States Department of Agriculture APP
proved 1,345 road projects, involving
the improvement Of 1850 miles, at an
estimated cost of approximately $751;
143,644. Of this sum approximately
$7S,592,16 represents Federal funds.
Since the passage of the Federal aid
road act 1927 projects have been ap-
proved. These call for the construction
Of 1886 miles Of road, at an estimat-
ed cost of 1926, 267 ,S47, of which about
$95, 498, 40 will be borne by the Federal
Government. Gratifying progress also
has been made in connection with the
national-forest road work. From July
!, 1913, to November l, 1919, "a pro-
jects, involving 923 miles Of road, were
approved, and plans were completed for
the improvement of so others, aggregat-
ing 946 miles. These facts are brought
out in the annual report of the Secrc-
tary of Agriculture. In Minnesota it is
planned to build 297 miles of new paw

Red Wing Eagle: The only disap-
pointed person because the world did
not come to an end last week was a
western farmer who complained to the
police that, though man had sold him
a SIS ticket for front seat whence he
could see "the beginning of the end Of
the world,' the performance had not
come off and he had failed to get the
worth of his money.

LeSueur Centre Leader-Democrat: If
we could eat all the free publicity dope

and and one causes, durn our skin If

Morris Tribune: For us fellows who
are in the newspaper business as a life
work, the launching Of SO many stock
company papers throughout the North
west is not such bad thing. The more
general knowledge there is scattered
about as to the inside working OF a
newspaper probably the better it will
be. By the time stockholders have paid
a few assessments and have lost their
original investment, perhaps they will
have little more appreciation Of the
fellow who can really run newspaper
and make it pay.

Much Of the argument for Major
General Wood as fit candidate for the
presidency is put on the "sore toe'
basis. Major General Wood was not
assigned to duty in France and because
Of this, the administration is charged
with keeping him home for merely pol
itical reasons. However, the supporters
of General Pershing, who are pushing
him as republican candidate for the
presidency, are quite positive that he
was selected to take charge of the over
seas forces because he was the best fit
ted. The Woods charge is quite with
out basis. It was necessary to have
competent military men in this country
as well as overseas, and apparently Gen
eral Wood did his duty well, for which
he was duly recognized by the war de-
Partment. The fact that he didn It 60
across, has nothing to do with his quail
fications to preside over a non-military
nation.

On account Of the large increase in
the cost of newspaper production, and
also the increasing cost of postage, es-
pecially on papers going just out of the

Springfield (Mass.) Republican: Over
$500 was collected in New York state
in October in fines for violating the
laws against killing songbirds. The ex-

mate sentiment in the protection Of the
birds, but there is also the soundest OF
economic reasons.

There seems to be quite verbal pas
sage at arms over the sending Of Ma
tional Guard company to international
Falls on account of strike of less than
so men on logging railroad running
into the northern town. Governor Burn
quist and leading citizens of Interna
tional Falls don It seem to agree on the
necessity of the guards presence.
Whether the situation was nlisrepre-
sented to the governor is one matter,
but apparently E. w. Backus, the big
lumberman of that district through the
sheriff of the county, is responsible for
the Guards presence there.

Figures compiled at Washington es-
innate net returns from railroad opera
tions under the Federal administration
for the month Of October to be approx
1mately 100000, although it is be-
ieved this figure would have mounted
as high as $9,oQ100o had it not long
been for several abnormal conditions
during this month. Withdrawal of
heavy quantities Of coal traffic, due to
the strike, in the latter part Of October
account for falling off of APPROX
fhate1y $3,000,000, it is estimated. There
was"also an abnormal shifting of open
top cars made necessary to get coal out
and shipments properly directed in The
few weeks before the strike was expect
ed. In additions, there were many car
repairs to be made October that would
properly have been made in August but
for the railroad shopmcn s strike. Net
revenues for the past four months ag-
gregated $22,757 JAG.

Of particular interest in livestock
survey recently completed in South Da-
kota are figures on the quality of pure
bred sires, as well as on the number of
scrubs and grades in that region. Four
teen counties typical of livestock con-
ditions in the state were included in
the survey. Of the sires in herds Of
cattle Is per cent were grades or scrubs,
and about rs per cent of the pure bred
sires were classed as inferior, according
to a part of the reports. This is the
first count of scrub purcbreds, over a
considerable area, received by the Unit
ed States Department Of Agriculture.
1t was found that when pure bred sires
were used, the average herd of 20 grade
COWS returned $540 more profit during
1918 than when grade or scrub sires
were used. It has been estimated that
the elimination Of inferior pure bred
sires would increase the average profit
in each herd from $40 to $500 annual

your own fault; you should provide
memory courses for US fellows who
attempt to follow you.
But this story Is about Miss Foster,
so exit Mr.. Shipman.
The luncbeon-we will refer to II
for a long time as ''the luncheon
disclosed many things. Miss Foster
likes lilacs. At times the liking be-
comes an obsession. At those times
she must have them. Should you be
with her then, you will probably
leap a fence and gather them from
the nearest garden. Perhaps you
will pay super-fiorist prices through
the medium of Police CQurt-but
you will gather them.
Miss Foster mas the happy faculty
of choosing clothes (now we have
the attention of our feminine read

never do they become of more i'm
portance than a setting and clothes
that gather their attractiveness by
their patrician simplicity. She can
make a symphony from a nobby
