The Paper Waste.

Some of the greatest wastes of pa
per in this country today is due to the
employment of so-called publicity men
who try to graft free advertising from
the country papers. With advertising
space worth from 20 to 80 cents an
inch, the editor invariably consigns
this dope to the waste basket, and
there is nearly enough of it to fill the
basket every day Millions of dol
lars worth of good paper could be
saved annually if the heads of large
corporations, state and government
departments, would kick out their
free space grafters and compel them
to earn an honest living. The time
has gone by which the country editor
needs any dope for filters His
main trouble is to boil down the legi-
innate news SO as toskeep from print
ing extra pages of paper costing $500
a ton.-Waseca Herald.

number of the non-partisan candidates

final about it. The law is in great
need of change that its decisions may
be more effective than at present. A

strong contender for an office, but we
refer merely to the inconsistencies in
the law itself and the necessity for

SCHOOLS MUST
BE AMERICAN

The New Ulm idea is to be uprooted
before it gets established in any of the
schools of Minnesota. Neither Ger
man nor any other language than
English is to be used as the medium
of instruction or to be made COM
pulsory.
The law of the State is clear, the
State officers concerned are pledged
to enforce it, and the posts Of the Am
Serican Legion are to give their active
aid in bringing violations to light.
In community like New Ulm,
where SO many of German parentage
live, it is quite proper that the schools
should give facilities for the children,
ito learn the native language Of their
parents. But these facilities must be
optional and not compulsory. No for

clause wherein a candidate who ran
