ANTI-CHRISTIAN.

A new force has been set loose in
Russia against Bolshevism 1t has the
promise of being increasingly potent
because it is a by-product of the deer
religious instinct of the Russians that
has survived the cruelty repressive
policies and the un-C Christian philos-
ophy of the Leninites.
The nucleus of this latest anti
Bolshevik propaganda is a society
formed in Onsk The purpose is to
nroject it's influence all over Russia as
time and opportunity may permit
Something of this kind has long been
expected from the Russian people by
those who know them best and un-
derstand the ardor of their love for
the church of their fathers Particu-
larly have the peasants been deeply
religious and spiritually emotional.
The fact helped the czar, the accred-
tied head of the church, to maintain
bis imperialistic hold on the affairs of
Russia.
The Bolsheviki are avowedly hostile
to the Christian religion. They have
put church properties to other than
spiritual uses They have discour-
aged religion, organized and morgan
lied. They have repudiated Christian
tenents regarding the marriage rela-
tion and the home They have no use
for prayer and scoff at the idea O.
a human being trying to bring him
self into relationship with Divine
friend and protector. Denying there
is hades hereafter, they have estab-.
lished full-fledged one in Russia.
Despite all these n-theistic preach
ings and policies, the Bolsheviki have
been unable to smother the Russian
religious instinct. A vast majority of
the peasantry not only is still outside
the political pale of the Leninites, but
is said to be immune in a spiritual
sense from the poisonous life philos-
ophy of that breed. The Omsk society
may have given new vitality to an
old influence that will eventually hur'
itself against the Bolshevik fallacy
with fatal impact. Minneapolis Tri-

AN ODD WHEAT CROP.

One Of the most peculiar crops of
wheat ever produced in the North
west is being marketed this fall IN the
Twin Cities. which are receiving near
" all the grain shipped from local
elevators in Minnesota and in Dakota.
No two crops OF wheat are quite alike,
as marked variations from the aver
age usually are noted every season, but
rarely does crop depart 50 radically
from the average as does that of
1919, according to Commissioner O. p.
B. jacobson, of the Minnesota Rail-
road and Warehouse Commission.
Figures compiled by the grain in
spection service Of the Commission
show that the bulk OF the wheat re-
ceived in Minneapolis is far below the
mean standard Of good wheat IN the
matter Of weight. OF 1888 carloads
Of dark Northern spring wheat IN

354 cars were graded No. l while p

Child Labor

STANDARDS LOW.

Children toll on homestead farms
in northern Minnesota under condi-
tions which rival evils discovered in
New York city slums, according to
Mrs. Bertha C. Moller, who has re-
turned from a tour of the state In
the interest of woman suffrage, says
the Minneapolis Journal. Mrs. Mol
ler is seeking twin city members for
the National Child Labor committee.
sT found children working on the
farm their parents had homestead
ed" said Mrs. Moller, when they
should have been in school Many
of the children in the rural schools
attended one-fourth or one-half of
the time.
Further investigation showed their
schools are poorly ventilated and the
children do not have the proper kind
of food. Their health standard is be-
low that of the city schools and the per-
centage of illiteracy is also larger.
Rural communities should show better
percentages in both these respects than
the schools of large city.
"The child labor law of Minnesota
is good, but it allows this condition to
exist. It is probable that in only a
very few parts of the United States
the same conditions prevail
The Redwood gazette., 1919-10-22
VERY COMFORTABLE.

Minnesota, as state appears to be
in very comfortable circumstances.
From an apparently authentic re-
port recently made public the state
appears to have more net assets than
any other state in the Union
state nancy, more public lands, more
public buildings, etc.
Minnesota is credited with assets
of $128, ,894, ,421 and debts of only ST.
O18,5O1.
It is led in totals of assets by New
York, with $239 1897 ,545 but that state
has $241, ,164 ,230 OF outstanding indebt-
edness, according to the census bureau
Tn second place is Washington with as
sets of $123,693, 1866 and state debt
of So, AT, ,63S.
Does that make you rather cheerful
today?

Minnesota become the victim of so

O60 carloads were graded No. A or
lower. That is to say, only about 10
per cent of the present crop of North
western wheat is of the top grade,
while about so per cent is very light.
In the case of the Northern spring
class, the figures show that only 265
carloads out of total of :, 3,449 cars, or
less than 8 per cent, was given a
rating of No. / upon official inspec-
tion.
The weight and appearance of the
first samples of the present crop to
reach the local market were so far be-
low par that the commission men
could not even obtain any bids from
the millers. Later, however, it was
demonstrated through tests conducted
by the State Railroad Commission in
its laboratory, that the wheat, though
shrunken and shrivelled and light in
weight, could be ground into good
flour, which produced excellent bread.
AS result Of these milling and bak-
ing tests, the United States Grain
New York City, August 26, with Of
ficials from Minnesota and the Dako-
tas, fixed definite prices for the out
cast grain commensurate with its mil

HE'S RIGHT.

David Lloyd George of England has
a knack Of presenting facts very clear

In a recent address given by the
premier he had the following to say:
"That which makes for the pros
perity of the world is what we pro-
duce. We cannot hope for lower
costs unless everyone does his part.
This seems to be the one solution
which is generally agreed to as one
of the means Of getting back to nor
NAL conditions is the matter of liv-
ing costs. The tendency for higher
wages, shorter hours and a shorter
output. which prevails would there

turally has placed it at a high premlu
um as that grain is greatly desired by
the millers for mixing with the SQuths
ern starchy wheat, which now Is be-
ing freely used by the Northwestern
millers. In the matter of wheat prea
miums, some unusual situations have
developed. For instance, on October
9rd, there was a spread" in price oa
35c bushel between two differe0t
samples of No. dark Northern, al
though, theoretically, the two samples
should have been quoted alike. The
United States Grain Corporation could
not have paid more than $2.21A foR
either but the Minneapolis millers Of
fered $295 bushel for one sample and
only $3.50 for the other, although both
graded exactly alike.
Mr.. Jacobson believes that the Sepa
