central orb. Between the two groups
is an immense gap OF space.

cate with Jupiter Give times as far

absurd. inasmuch as that mighty
planet. 1900 times as big as the
Earth. is q burning mass only half
extinguished and in a semi-gaseous
condition. With the other three 1t is
much the same way; they are unfn-
ished worlds. That they ever will be
inhabited seems more than doubtful.
inasmuch as even Jupiter. the nearest
OF them to the sun. obtains from the
latter only one twenty-ifth OF the heat
We get from that source
One OF Jupiter's four moons Is 5000
miles in diameter-as large as the
planet Mercury. 1t may conceivably

Strains The Brain
Il is an accepted truth in logic, as
well as in mathematics. that where
a thing becomes Infinitely improbable
il must be regarded as impossible. To
suppose that the speck OF star-dust
which we call the Earth is the only
body IN the Universe that is tenanted
by conscious and reasoning beings Is,
In view OF the facts here set forth, an
infinite imprObability. Hence we may
take It for granted. beyond the slight

worlds than ours are inhabited. And
the overwhelming likelihood Is that
billions on billions OF them are oc-
cupied by living and thinking crea-
lures.

cate with any OF them. Alas IL

DEMOCRATS HEED =

Larry Hodsson, Of St. Paul, Democraf1e
Candidate for Governor Delivers
Eloquent Political address,

"A large audience listened to Mayor
Larry HodgsOn, the Democratic candi-
date FOR Governor, at the Strand
Theater on Tuesday evening this week.
The Battalion Band was out and en-
llvened the occasion with selections Of
music, both before and after the speak
Ing. Julius J. Olson presided.
The first speaker introduced was Mrs.
II. A. Patterson, of Mankato, who made
fine address, dwelling principally up
on the duties and responsibilities Of the
women voters. Having been given the
right of suffrage, it was their duty to
educate themselves along political
lines, and study public questions to the
end that they may exercise the fran
chise intelligently- and for the best in
terests of the state and nation. Women
are especially interested in questions
that concern the home, the rearing and
education OF the children, public health,
child labor, wOmen's pensions, temper
ance and other matters that make for
social betterment BY being given the
suffrage women will help solve Ques-
lions that have been neglected in the
past, yet are of great Importance to the
race. Mrs. Patterson is a fluent speak
er. and her address was we'll received
although her praise of the democratic
candidate for governor was rather full
some.
Mr.. Olson in introducing Mr.. Hodg-
son said the democrats were through
helping the republicans out of theiz
difficulties. In the last campaign or
two they were asked to help keep the
republican party loyal, now they are
asked to help save the party from be-
ing swallowed up by the socialists But
the democrats will not listen to these
cries of distress this year, but will stick
to their own candidates. -
Mr.. Hodgson is an eloquent speaker
and he kept the audience in good hu-
NOR by his many funny stories He
discussed Article K Of the League of
Nations, from a Democratic view point,
touched upon several state issues, such
as the tonnage tax. depletion Of our
forests and various other matters. He
claimed that the republicans do not
want to discuss state issues in this
campaign but will talk about the war
in Russia, socialism and free love.
Mr.. Hodgson at the close Of his adj
dress urged the Importance of social
service legislation Of which he has al
ways been champion. He also touch
ed upon marketing conditions and other
farmers problems. An eloquent peror-
alton brought his address to a close.
