with many hot arguments for and
against Townley and his men.
Townley evidently fears the Ameri-
can Legion's proposed campaign
against him, as he has made numer-
Gus inquiries as to the number Of men
in the locs eost, the names and occu-
pations of It's leaders and has kept
close watch on the legion mems activi-
ties against him.
Townley probably will send several
of his local leaders to the meeting with
prepared arguments for the llonparti-
san league.
kitterman has received Of letters
and messages from legion members
and other men in Wisconsin and No
Dakota who are urging TIE American
Legion Of Kansas to carry on its
fight against Townley. The letters all
tell of the campaigns that have been
Waged against Townley in these
states and are replete with condemna-
ton of Townley's socialistic methods.
Townley's organizers met last night
at their headquarters behind closed
doors, as is the usual custom when
Townley drills his men in the methods
Of arguments necessary in soliciting
memberships from the farmers.

Cement Bill Planned.

Two bills now being drafted at the
State Capitol contemplate the erec-
ton and operation by the state of a
plant for the manufacture of cement.
These steps are being taken be-
cause of the large demand for this
product that is certain to come with
the beginning of the trunk highway
system in the spring as authorized
by Amendment No. 1.
One bill being drafted by the attor-
ney generals staff at the instance of
Senator Mike Boylan of Virginia di-
reefs the highway commissioner to
investigate and report on the FEAST
bility Of a state owned and operated
cement plant.
The second measure is being pre-
pared for submission to the legisla-
ture by Oscar Arneson, chief clerk
elect of the house, at the request of
Representative Elias Nordgren of
Chisago county.
The State of Washington is said to
be the only commonwealth which ev-
er built and operated cement plant
It continued in operation only short
time. The mill is said to have proved
it's value, however, as means of re-
ducing prices to the state.

Duluth Herald Sold.

Herbert Hoover and Julius Barnes
recent purchasers of the Washington
Herald and the Philadelphia Times.
have an option to take over the Duluth
Herald, the largest Democratic paper
in Minnesota, according to reports.
It is reported in Duluth that the OPP
ton on the Herald was obtained by
F. M. Hanson, an associate of Hoover
and Barnes. Mr. Hanson is reported
to have obtained the options on the
Washington and Philadelphia papers.
A. C. Weiss, publisher of the Duluth
Herald, has made no comment upon
the reports that Hoover and Barnes
were to buy the paper. He has stated
simply that there was an option on the
paper and that it had some little time
to run.
The Duluth Herald has long been a
power in Minnesota. 1t has been the
leaiing Democratic daily newspaper
for many years. It's publisher, Mr.
Weiss, has been delegate t-large to
numerous Democratic national con-
ventions.
Mr.. Barnes home is in Duluth. He
is Republican. Mr.. Hoover has also
aligned himself with the Republican
party. If the paper is purchased by
them it is assumed that its policy
will be changed Minneapolis Tri-
bune, Friday, December 81.
Later reports announce that the pa
per has been sold and that the new
owners took possession, January l.

That Tricky Old Map.
Hearst's Magazine.


The United States geogolical survey
is doubtless quite right in saying that.
few realize that the island of Cuba
If transposed would extend from New
York city to Indiana, or that Havan-
ma is farther west than Cleveland
Ohio.
When one sails out of New York
harbor bound for Cuba, one has the
general impression that the voyage is
to be in south-easterly direction; and
it is rather surprising on arriving In
Havana to be assured that you have
travelled in the direction of Chicago
But glance at the map substantiateS
the anomalous statement.
Other anomalies noted are that the
Panama canal is due south of Pitts
burgh, Pa, and that Nome, Alaska,
is farther west than Hawaii. Further
scrutiny of the map may surprise one
with the observation that the bulk
of the state of Washington, and the
corresponding portions of the states
directly east Of it as far as Minnesota,
lie north of the topmost peak of
Maine, which, to casual inspection
seems to project far into the boreaI
regions, and which is in point of fact
far north of Montreal and Quebec
and Nova Scotia and other regions
where climatic conditions obtain that
are utterly different from those OF
Washington.

be very dangerous" that the people
words, that they could not be trusted
But one great American statesman
did not feel that way about it. In
his first inaugural message, Abrahanf
Lincoln said, in relation to Constitu-
tional amendments:
Il wall venture to add that to me-
the convention mode seems preferable,
in that it allows amendments to origi-
nate with the people themselves, IN
stead of only permitting them to take
or reject propositions originated by
others, not especially chosen for the
purpose, and which might not be pre-
cisely such as they would wish to-
either accept or refuse
If Lincoln preferred the mode that
trusts the people, we of this later day
need not shy at it. In any event, it,
will probably be tried out before an
other generation arrives on the scene

Did Not Alarm Lincoln,

Boston Post: That general Con-
stitutional convention will be held at
Washington in the not very distant
future for the purpose Of revising our
great charter, so as to make national
government more responsive to the
immediate will of the people, seems to
be indicated by the trend of the most
thoughtful public opinion.
Although we have never had that
kind of convention for the amending
of the Constitution, the document it
self provides for it. When the legisla-
ture of two-thirds of the states shall
request such a convention, congress
must call it. Amendments proposed
