AS THE editor
SEES IT

Many people have been urging the
farmer on to greater production this
season as a means of reducing the
cost of living. And there they stop.
Apparently they do not take into
consideration the fact that the food
speculator is in reality the one who
is robbing the poor and filching the
rich in order to line his own pockets.
He it is who has done most to force
the price of foodstuffs to almost pro
hibitive heights.
What we need is an old time curb
bit that is big enough and cruel enough
to bring the spectators to their knees
and keep them there.
The farmer should not beasked to
become everybody's goat.

News dispatches indicate that a
great influx of immigration is to be
expected soon from foreign countries,
and especially from some of the Ger
man states.
We have plenty of room in this
country for reputable and law abiding
citizens from any other country, but
our doors should be religiously closed
to trouble makers of every descrip
ton. We have too many of that breed
now for our own good.
If some means could be provided
whereby the American farmer, could
secure the necessary farm help from
over the seas it would be a blessing
And since the average American girl
has graduated from other peoples kit
chens, a hundred thousand strong and
domestics would be enthusiast
tically received.
Strong minds, indimitable courage
and endless patience will be required
to restore this country to the normal
conditions existing before The out
break of the European war.
Today practically all lines of bust
ness are conducted on an abnormal
scale. Wages, living, everything is out
of plumb, and the prevailing tendency
is TO force things upward.
This of course can not last indef-
nitely with safety to the republic, but
1t IS difficult to conceive how we are to
lead the American people back to earth
again without bringing a disastrous
crash about our heads
A Moses would be thrice welcome to
day.

Consider the gunman, what he is
and what he does He is one who is
quick on the draw, a center shot, and
bunch of wickedness in the hide
which God once made pure. He is a
hero to vice and a terror to respecti-
bility. He kills wantonly and is
proud of Staying. He glories in acts
which all decent people abhor. The
daily press of our great cities are full
of the exploits. of gunner. who should
be stretching rope, but instead are
taking life. The gunman is the pro-
duct of corruption in politics and po-
lice forces, and of leniency on the part
OF courts and juries. A rigid enforce
ment of law in any community would
soon eliminate the gunner They
would be either dead, in jailf or earn
ing an honest living But ward poll
tics is ward politics and police forces
are police forces in the big cities. The
gang is too powerful for either.

What is smile, Our office devil
says it is the spirit of kindness oazing
out from good heart. And he isn't
far off at that. Did you ever contrast
the smile of good man and that of
bad one? The smile of the good
man conveys spirit of friendship and
brotherly love, while that of the bad
man more often resembles the grin of
a hyena. If you don't believe it, pull
off smiling contest between one of
each. In ten minutes the man of de-
cency will be warming up to his work,
while the disciple of depravity will be
ready to fight.

companied the tri-state legislative
commission to Washington and stated
that this commission was handicapped
by lack of a legal foundation for work.
ing out its plans. New laws relative
to waterpower rights are necessary,
Mr.. Cliff stated, in order to secure
these concessions for the landowners
affected by the floods, to whom they
belong, provided the flood
control project materializes. Under
the old drainage laws there was no
way of controlling the flood waters
which are emptied into the Minnesota
river and it's tributaries, as the drain
age projects are on small scale and
are designed only to relieve the con-
gested waters in their immediate
vicinity. This made the passage of
corrective legislation necessary and
the new law, which permits of an or
ganization for flood control all along
the valley, is the result. Mr.. Cliff
stated that the upper end of the valley
is already organized and this organiza-
ton has taken steps toward flood con-
troll. Their project would, however,
carse the lower end of the valley to
become flooded to a even greater
extent than at present, so that it was
decided to attempt to organize the
entire watershed territory as unit
For this purpose Mondays meeting
here was called. He estimates the
benefit to be derived from an adequate
food control at from SIS to $40 per acre.
Cost About SIS Per Acre.
Commissioner Willard referred to
the appropriation of $4,000 obtained
from the state legislature during the
1919 session for the purpose of examin-
ing the basins in Minnesota. $4,000
of this amount was made available
for work along the Minnesota river.
This sum was insufficient to complete
the examination, but an attempt would
be made to secure additional funds for
this purpose. The cost of the flood
control project would be about $25.
to $50 per acre in the flooded district,
according to Mr.. Willard, although he
hesitated in giving an estimate on the
cost of the entire pr )ject in view of
the high prices prevailing at present,
He urged the immediate organization
of the district and outlined the con-
templated improvements, which in
clude a retarding basin and dam at
Lac qui Parle lake, diverting the
Milestone river into Bigstone lake
and the Chippewa river into the pro-
posed Lac qui Parle reservoir and
possibly reservoir at Redwood Falls.
Mr.. Willard said that the survey had
to be abandoned temporarily, owing
to lack of available funds, so that
the river could not be surveyed along
it's entire length. 1t might prove
necessary to construct additional reser-
voirs further down the stream than
Redwood Falls, probably at New Ulm
and at some point on the Blue Earth
river. An attempt is to be made to
have more money appropriated to
enable completion of the survey of the
Minnesota river, in which event the
work would go forward without delay.
The commissioner stated that the de-
tailed report of the engineers who
were entrusted with the examination
of the river basin would be ready for
distribution in about two months.
