Big Bill Taft and his colleagues in
that fool organization, "the league to
enforce peace" still have hope that
the session of the senate which con-
vened on December / will ratify the
treaty in its entirety. It is pity that
a 1'brainy" man like Taft should ever
have conceived the idea that he could
organize sufficient number Of Ameri-
cans to cajole the United States SEN
ate into ratifying a socialistic treaty
which would denationalize America
bring it down to a point where it would
be on a, level with the European ma
tions. No one is surprised that Presi-
dent Wilson is anxious to put this
emasculative treaty into effect, for he
is virtually in a socialistic category
himself, but Taft processes to be a
staunch republican. However there
are instances where .tbrainy,' men be-
come obsessed with vague IDEAS which
approach virtual alteration Of the
mind, but we have hopes that Mr..
Taft will recover from his monomania.

Mike Bowling of Olivia is being
groomed for the gubernatorial race,
but his great obstacle to success is that
he is an Irishman In Minnesota an
1rishman is particularly lucky if he
gets an appointment on the police
force. Julius Schmahl is also said to
be an aspirant to the governorship.
He is German and would, in our opin-
ion, stand a better chance than Mike.
But in this state political offices have
come to point where the Irish need
not apply and. where only Scandi-
navians can gather the plums. ((See
list Of state officers and their ap-
pointees.)

Chief of Police Walker of Minneap-
oils figures that he needs at least 1877
more police to cope with the disturbed
situation in that city and protect life
and property. The police committee,
however, thinks that ne can get along
with five extra men. To I. w. w.
activities is largely due the prevailing
conditions in Minneapolis and police
records show that many more men are
necessary on the force. But there
seems to lie another remedy-that of
rounding up all I. w. w. and driving
them from the city. In Seattle this
scheme worked very successfully.

The situation in Ireland looks
gloomy. Both the British government
and the Sim Feiners (self-styled re-
publicans) are ready for action. The
latter say eve have declared war on
England, we are prepared" while
Great Britain says, "We will suppress
disorders and outbreaks at all costs"
Should the Sim Feiners foment re-
bellion, which a reliable Dublin au-
thority declares is expected, it would
mean the greatest letting of blood
that Ireland has ever known. At this
time there seems little hope Of avert
ing the conflict, but let us hope that
some amicable adjustment of the situa-
ton is arrived at and sacrifice Of life
prevented.

Football, which closed on Thanks
giving day, claimed only five victims
during the 1919 season. People will
put forth the claim that had they not
engaged in this game they would now
be alive. But this is a mere conjec-
ture- something of which no one is
positive It is just as reasonable to
say that thousands OF people killed in
railroad accidents would still be alive
had they stayed at home. There is
in actuality not as much danger by a
large percentage in football as in
railroad or automobile travel. Vide
statistics. Let the game proceed.

From Doc. Grayson's bulletins it is
almost impossible to tell whether our

cision Of the average reader. But we
are offering up our prayers that Wood
row may be restored to health. We

In announcing the necessity Of an
increase in advertising rates, the
Mortified News states that during
1918 the total receipts from adver-
Using and subscriptions fell short
$48.06 of meeting the total cost of
production. This statement will
prove surprise to most country pub
fishers. Northfeld has bunch of live
merchants who go after trade and adj
vertise literally, and yet under such
favorable conditions the News did not
make expenses. The explanation is
simple. The price Of advertising and
subscriptions was not advanced in ac-
cordance with the labor cost and ma
terial used in producing the paper.
The country publisher who has made
any real money since the war started
in 1917 is indeed fortunate. Waseca
