HUSTLE FOR MEMBERS
State National Guard to Put On Cam
paign Until Dec. is.


The Minnesota state militia is an
nounced in campaign for recruits to
circular letter sent out by Brigadier
General w. f. Rhinow, to all guard
organizations. The campaign began
today and will close December Is.
Local organizations, however, will not
close their recruiting drive until the
full quota of men has been obtained.
Major General J. M. Carter, chief
Of the militia bureau, in letter to the
adjutant generals office, deplores the
low morale of the militia, and ascribes
as, its cause the widespread indiffer-
ence among eligible men toward mili-
tary duty; the delay of congress I in
framing military legislation, and the
hostility of labor unions toward the
national guard. General Carter be-
lieves, however, that these obstacles
can be overcome by an immediate,
vigorous and systematic campaign.

GOING UP.

Three great contributions to architecture made
by America fireproof buildings steel-frame
construction and the elevator. Most important
is the elevator. Without it, the other two would
not be possible.
Thirty-two thousand apartments erected every
normal year in New York City alone. Consider
that and you realize the importance of the ele-
vator. This is its Goth anniversary.
Spend your vacation in the canyons Of the
southwest and see the ruins of primitive apart
ment houses that lodged Mr.. Cliffdweller and
family, the people with active muscles and lazy
brains. Daily they climb dizzy heights via lad
ders, too stupid and lazy to invent an elevator.
Archimedes, discoverer of the fulcrum or
crowbar, grasped the idea of the pulley, con-
ceived movable room (elevator) and raised the
contraption by winding the end of the rope on
revolving drum moved by levers. The worlds
first elevator.
Villoyer, centuries ago, copied the idea of Ar
chimedes. Called his device the flying chair. .
French kings daughter tried it out. It stuck
between floors and servants had to break down
the walls of the shaft.
It was 1850 before men began to take the ele-
vator idea seriously. Then Hecker Bros, flour
merchants of New York. installed platform
CnaC moved ana GOWN between nOCcn6Q col
umns-like the jack you lift your Ford with.
Steam did the lifting
Most progress is the result of accident. An
elevator loaded with boxes of sugar dropped
but the boxes did not break. The car had COM
pressed the air as it descended, the cellar being
almost alright. That instant was born the air
cushion principle used today.
In 1859 Otis Tuft came out with a vertical
screw steel arrangement with closed gear, and
the modern elevator was fact.
First come the men whose brains discover me-
chanicaI principles. Then other minds invent
steel, strong cables, steam engines-the means
of putting the ideas into effect.
The real benefactor to mankind is the man who
can group principles and apply them to mater
ials.
| All the principles of the elevator, all the ma
| terials for making them, were known years be-
fore genius applied them.
| The elevator made skyscrapers possible but
it occurred to no to develop the steel-frame
or skeleton type of building until 1891. During
the Worlds Fair the Masonic Temple of Chicago
was great marvel. Today it is dwarf com
pared with the Woolworth building, where the
elevator carries you up 81 floors without stop
ping.
j All the knowledge of the world is valueless un
less you can apply it. Countless combinations o.
possible; fame and wealth await the organizing
brain that coordinate them into something
useful for the human race.

EDUCATION OF THE PEoPLE.

With the foreign-born the failure to learn our
language has been a result of isolation. AS
general thing, he knew little of the provisions
that had been made for his education, and this
is especially true of those who came to the United
States within recent years. These immigrants
live in communities almost entirely with their
own nationals, and have little means of know
ing the good intentions OF Americans. Whatever
the reason, they preferred to live here as they
had lived in their native land. Of simple minds,
small vision, and unaccustomed to consideration
by their own governments, they never dreamed
that forces here were at work to help them to
realize the rights as human beings they are en-
titled to enjoy.
Because of their failing to avail themselves of
our public schools, naturally our people believed
the foreign-born did not wish to learn anything
regarding our customs our form of govern
ment. But the facts prove this to be an error of
Judgment. The real reason for the lack of in
terest of the foreign-born was that he knew moth
ing of our plans, until the bureau of naturaliza-
ton, in response to public demand, devised ways
of re&ching him through various public agencies
through his own nationals and his shopmates
The extent of the use of the federal textbook
on citizenship authorized by act of congress and
the increasing number of requests for it com
ing to the bureau of naturalization from public
school officials in every section of the country
shows the eagerness of the foreign-born to OBJ
tain education And the success of the course
everywhere proves the wisdom of the law which
authorized it.
But the benefits of this course have not ended
with the foreign-born. Great numbers of Ameri-
cans have been enrolled as students in the thou
sands of public schools which have formed citi-
zenship classes, and from every point come de-
mands for the extension of these classes to give
all the people the chance to learn.

Dawson secured the copy from Thorn
as r. Lamont, a representative of the
United States treasury, and also in
the confidence of the peace mission.

that Root showed the copy to re-
publican senators, it had not left the

different phases of the peace treaty.
F., But when Root took the republican
senators into confidence concerning
the copy of the peace treaty, he vio-
lated the confidence which was re-
posed In him. And so republican poll

Root tries to excuse himself by say
ing that the treaty was public proper
ty'' because it was reported that tn
Germans had made it public. Does he
mean by this, that the commission
,of crime by Germany or the viola
'tion of confidence by the Huns makes
the deed all right? Does he look
to the Huns for a standard of morals,

A democrat would not think of ex-
a""sing himself by saying that he did
the Germans did.
