PREUS' OPPORTUNITY.

j. A. o. Preus has come through a
close primary fight and bitter cleo
ton campaign with the tremendous
majority of about 10000.
Mr.. Preus is now confronted with a
mans sized task. The farmers of Min
nesota have felt that they were not
receiving due consideration at the
hands of either the republicans or
democrats and consequently many of
them turned to. the nonpartisan lead
ers. Now Mr.. Preus' friends believe
that he can fill the office of governor
of this state to the satisfaction of the
farmers, and if he does he will have
rendered the state of Minnesota a
great service. If he makes the kind
IF record which his friends believe
he can make az governor, his political
career will just be well launched when
he leaves that office.

1t is pity, yes, shame, that the
allied nations do not put an end to the
atrocities Of the Turks in Armenia.
This could have been easily accom-
plished had the supreme council Of the
nations, in determining the division
of territory after the war, ordered the
beastly Turks out of Europe and en-
forced the edict. So long as they are
permitted to remain the Armenians
will be subjected to the vilest atroci-
ties. A few days ago a-dispatch from
London stated that in a recent massa-
ere 10000 Armenians-men, women
and children-were cut to pieces by
the Moslems. Having no ammunition,
the Armenians fought with scythes,
sticks and stones, but of course they
could not withstand the attack of
troops armed with rifles and scimi-
tars. Conditions in Armenia are a
disgrace to civilization and it is high
time that the allies put an end to the
brutalities of the Turks for all time
by driving them into Asia, where they
belong.

WOODWARD AND SANFORD.

We sincerely regret the defeat of both
Philip Woodward and Judge Sanford
Mr.. Sanford has made an excellent Of
;icial-no one could have served the
county better in that capacity. He is
a man who appreciates the difference
between straight, loyal Americanism
and Americanism strongly diluted
with socialism.
Philip Woodward is an estimable
man and undoubtedly would have made
a most efficient clerk of court. The
election returns indicate that he had
much the same opposition as Judge
Sanford. 1t is interesting to note
that Phillips, Garrison and Shipstcad
polled almost the same vote in Borg
holm, Hayland and the townships of
, Milaca and Onamia.
Princeton cast almost a solid vote
for both Sanford and Woodward, and
in so doing did not vote against the
farmers since both these men live on
farms.

in. that city, she certainly needs them
in large number.
Strong Road Foundations.

Need of strong foundations for all
trunk line highways which the state
Of Minnesota may build, or whose con-
struction it may aid, is shown striking.
ly in statement by Robert E. Stra-
burn of Spokane, WASH, on his OBJ
servation of the great wear and tear
on such roads in the east. "From Chi
cago to the Atlantic" he said, "there
are comparatively short stretches of
first-class hard-surface highways, but
hundreds of miles of the latter have
been so cut up by heavy trucking that
they are very inferior to the ordinary
country dry roads in dry weather
The three or four highways between
New York and Philadelphia, which a
few years ago were considered the
last thing in highway construction, are
almost impossible owning to the heavy
trucking" .
This situation is not an argument
against building good roads, but in
favor of building them good enough
and strong enough for the motor truck
transportation which is only in it's in
fancy in Minnesota.
The benefits of motor truck freight
ing will be delayed unless permanent
highways are constructed. If the
roads are not strong enough for such
uses they soon will be of little use
for any purpose.
1t will be wise to look to the future
in planning roads or otherwise much
money will be spent in vain.

white road to duty shall lead to the
soldiers grave, after all, is that so
terrible? You will never again have
a chance to offer your lives in so noble
a cause" The American flag has new
er trailed in the dust of defeat because
our men have gone forth fired with
this spirit.
This country and all the world,
shaken by the great war, is today
restless and turbulent. If those men
who made the great sacrifice are not
to have died in vain, peace and order
must again be established. Let every
citizen of this nation today consecrate
himself to this task-let each man
measure up to his opportunities and
play his part in the game.

The first ship flying the German
flag to arrive in this country since
July, 1914, has reached New York.
This marks the resumption Of trade
between the two nations. 1t was ex-
pected that hostile demonstration
would occur when the Teutonic flag ap-
peared in the harbor, but it failed to
materialize. OF course it was better
thus. The war is over and the people
of this country should no longer
cherish animosity against their former
enemies. AS the late Joel Heatwole

ARM1sTICE DAY,

The months have rolled by and
Armistice day is again here. Two
years ago today half the world was
wild with Joy at the news that the
frightful conflict had finally ceased,
while the other half of the peoples
of the earth sat with heads bowed
in grief-grief so deep that their
numbed senses could not respond even
to the joyous news that the awful
sacrifice of men was no longer to con-
tinue.
To-, many of us who are still
yearning for "the touch of van.
ish'dF hand and the sound of voice
that5is still" this day can as yet bring
no sense of joy; it only opens wounds
not yet healed. May a rich blessing
today rest with those who grieve. Lei

writes, it matters not so much when .

In particularly kindly spirit Mr..
Bryan advises Mr., Wilson to fold his
tent and silently steal away, or in
other words, to hand in his resigna-
ton without any ostentatious -four
ishes and vamoose. Coming, as the
advice does, from an avowed enemy,
it is to be assumed that it will only
impel Mr.. Wilson to grind his teeth
and hang to the throne more tena-
ciously during the remainder of his
term of office. However, for the good
of the country, Mr.. Bryan has given
excellent advice.

So it appears that the peace treaty
has. disappeared somewhere in: the
shuttle. Secretary Colby knows: not
its whereabouts, neither does President
Wilson. The official junkman has not
seen it, neither has the furnaceman

seals and red taps when kindling his
fires from the waste basket. However
/ the fact remains that it has vanished
but it. is far from our purpose Ia
accuse either Mr.. Colby or Mr.. Wilson

4 Harvey's Weekly: Profuse and
passionate are the administrations
protestations that not a dollar of cor
ruption or waste has been proved
against it in its war expenditures. It
is, however, matter of official record
that the administration spent con-
siderably more than a billion dollars
on aircraft production during the war,
and yet produced not single fighting
or bombing plane for use at the front,
but left us entirely dependent upon the
allies for machines. Maybe that is
neither waste nor corruption. Per
haps one Of the most efficient public
officials the president has ever known
