Vote in City of Redw ood Falls.

With the vote more than doubled in
all precincts by the woman vote, re
turns of the general election held
Tuesday, November 7, are coming in
with unusual delay and it is quite i'm
possible to give anything like defin-
ite figures on either state or national
tickets at this time.
Associated Press returns Tuesday
evening and Wednesday morning stat
ed that Harding and Coolidge, the
Republican national candidates, were
carrying the country by about two to
one. The Redwood County vote on
these candidates was extremely heavy.
On the state ticket chief interest
was centered on the governorship and
early reports gave the state to Preus
by a big majority with Shipstead, the
Independent candidate and HodgsOn,
! the Democratic candidate running
about even. Shipstead won second
place in Redwood County. Other mem
bers of the state Republican ticket
are conceded election and Hilton and
Dibell both won by safe margins over
their opponents.
The Second District showed its
rightness of intention by eleCting
Frank Clague Of Redwood Falls to
Congress, his majority being conser-
vatively placed at five thousand with
several precincts still to hear from.
Another decided victory for this sec
tion was the election Of Judge |. NJ.
Olsen of New Ulm to the judgeship OF
! the Ninth judicial District. Just how
large the marjority won by Judge Oh
! sen is could not be ascertained but his
margin was sufficiently large to guar
antec his victory over Albert Pfaen-
der, the opposing candidate Both OF
these victories are exceptionally pleas
ing to all the thinking people Of Red
wood County where both Mr.. Clague
, and Mr.. Olsen are held in the highest
: esteem.

Representative the two present hold

Legion Wins Game.

The Redwood Falls American Le-
gion football team met the Legion
team from Glencoe at the fairgrounds
last Sunday and defeated the visitors
badly, the score being 10 to O. Red
wood won it's victory largely through
off-tackle smashes which Glencoe
failed to break. The game was play
ed upon slippery, muddy field which
made anything but straight football
out of the question. Two weeks ago
the local team went to Springfield and
beat the Springfield Legion by score
of 18 to O. Next Sunday, November
7 they will meet the Legion team from
Renville on the local gridiron, the
game to be called at three O'Clock.

committed himself to this means of

The Commissioner said the COM

evidence on the zone idea because the
commission feels that the question OF

Importance to the public that every
possible means of relief should be con-
sidered before a decision is reached.

bLAMES DANIELS
REPRESENTATION
AT BREAK OF WAR
Capt. Palmer Tells Senate
Investigating Committee of
Shortage of Men.

''Procrastination on the part of
Secretary Daniels was responsible
for a serious shortage of personnel
of the Navy in the war;" Capt. Leigh
c. Palmer, r-time chief of the bu
reau of navigation, testified today be-
fore the Senate committee investigat-
ing the Navy's conduct of the war.
The Secretary. Capt. Palmer de-
Clared. was unable to appreciate the
necessity for obtaining and training
men in advance of an actual declara-
tiOn of war.
"TOO Many Reserves Now"
Even after war was declared" the
witness said. ''he used to say. I'VE have
too many reserves now.
Just before the United States Joined
the allies. when the bureau of naviga-
tion was striving to recruit naval re-
serves. the witness continued, Secre-
tary Daniels ordered enrolment in the
reserve stopped.
Did you stop?" asked Chairman
Hale.
NO; we needed the men and went
right ahead.
Il talked to Mr.. Daniels the other
day and he doesn't remember any
thing about that" said the witness.
but he did d-order me to stop enroll
ment then and several other times"
Short of Men When War Broke.
Capt. Palmer told the committee
that when war was declared the Navy
was short $1,000 regular and reserve
enlisted men and about $500 officers
from it's peace-time requirements and
that at least 10000 additional enlist
ed men and many more officers were
needed for destroyers as soon as war
was declared
The witness said Congress was not
to blame, as it gave everything the
department asked for.
Replying to a question of Chairman
Haley. Capt. Palmer declared that
Secretary Daniels did all he could to
help get men "in the critical days of
the spring of 1917"
"The Secretary" he said, hacked
up all efforts to get enlisted men. He
was anxious to get them"
After Capt. Harris Laning, former
assistant chief of navigation. had told
the committee yesterday that the
Navy had been without a comprehen-
sive plan for the war and that chaos
virtually existed. Senator Trammel,
democrat, of Florida, confronted the
captain with a letter he had written
to Admiral Sims August IS. 1918. say
ing he was mot convinced that the
bureau of operations had erred in its
had some of Sims recommendations
been adopted they would have been
disastrous
Senator Trammel contended that
Laning's letter was a complete con-
tradiction of some of the Sims charges
and also some of the charges in Ian
ing'S statement, but the captain con-
tended his letter referred to a period
in the war later than that involved in
the charges by Admiral Sims.

The Frisky Backbone.

The spine of winter beats the
band, it is an artful dodger; at
times we think we have it
canned, and made a graveyard
lodger. We cry, "The spring
has come at last, with robin,
wren and sparrow!" And then
there comes a bitter blast that
chills us to the marrow. Then in
a whitewashed ward we lodge,
attended by neat nurses, and we
are lucky if we dodge a joyride
in some hearses. Each year the
backbone seems to sag, to show
that winters ended ; each year it
springs the same old gag, and all
our hearts are rended. We plant
our early spuds and greens, that
we may eat in summer; then
comes blast from arctic scenes
that puts them on the hummer.
One night last week I went to
bed and thought the winter
ended; the sky was cloudless
overhead, the outlook simply
splendid. I thought the back
bone had the jar it long had been
demanding, and so didn't drain
my car, but left the water stand
ing. Oh, whiskers When the
morning broke, the winter was
renascent, the snow was flying
round like smoke-I longed to
cuss, but dassent! And all my
neighbors had the gripes, those
patient watchful walters the
town was full of frozen pipes
and busted radiators.

5000 AMERICANS
NOW IN GERMANY
Have Been Given Ample Op-
portunity to Leave, Says
State Department.

An official estimate by the State De-
partment today placed the number of
Americans in Germany at about 5000,
of whom approximately 400 are wom-
en-. 1t was admitted that there was
no means of knowing accurately. but
the number given was said to be a
careful estimate based upon informa-
tion received from official sources.
1t was stated that all American
travellers in Berlin had been given
ample opportunity to. leave on a spe-
cial car provided through the efforts
of Gen. Allen and the German au-
thorities, but that many failed to take
advantage of the opportunity. because
they felt they were safe in the city.
The special car was sent out of
Germany by way of Cologne 1t was
