The Bench Indignant.

The Tri-State Telephone company
must know that the people of Mime.
sofa are vastly interested in the stand
of the Ramsey county commissioners
in refusing to pay bills for telephones
until the service is improved" This
is providing pick axes for the legisla.
tors who are hot to tear up the Min.

The telephone interests seem tx
have completely overlooked the fact
that the Minnesota legislature can un
do what it did in enacting the Bur.
rows Minnette bill. They have beer

Poor Bob White.

The question propounded by an cx-
change, "Why do people so ruthlessly
destroy the quail?" brings to mind an
appealing, little eulogy written by q
friend of this bird. Here it is:
"Here lies the pitiful remains Of the
farmers ally and friend-poor Bob
White! In life he devoured las differ
ent kinds of bad insects and the seeds
of 129 noxious weeds. For the smaller
pests of the farm he was the most
marvellous engine Of destruction God.
ever put together of flesh and blood.
He was good, beautiful, game and true;
and his small life was blameless. And
here he lies dead, snatched away from
his field of labor and destroyed in or
der that his assassin might have
little SPORT"

Among those who appeared before

Among those who appeared before
the senate judiciary committee and
urged the release Of Eugene Debs, that
notorious seditionist, from federal
prison was Mrs. Champ Clark, wife of
the former democratic speaker Of, the
house. From this it is reasonable to
assume that Mrs. Champ cast her vote
for Dcbs for president of the United
States. However this may be, it is
impossible to conceive how woman
who has taught "Americanism" could
conscicntiously intercedc for felon Of
the Debs stripe.

Know Your State.

Next to the ancient injunction,
"Know myself" is the more modern
and almost as important one: know
your state" the place where your
home is and your interests are. There
is much that is worth knowing, but
that is unknown to every individual,
in every state in which people make
their abiding places. Very often peo-
pie from other states ask questions
seeking information, that every or any
one of us should be able to answer
But are we? De we know with even
a reasonable degree Of certainty in
what section of the state certain coun-
ties, towns and cities are located
without consulting the map? Do we
know what the general resources of
those counties are, what of production
is common to them severally? These
and many other like questions can be
answered intelligently only when the
one questioned is intelligently in
formed.
Then, too, there are matters of vast
Importance to the proper development
of a state that must be thoroughly un-
derstood and appreciated in order
that growth and prosperity may come
through intelligently directed effort
No state or county can prosper unless
it's people know and understand the
conditions prevailing, the resources,
the raw material at hand. Informa-
ton along these lines helps to "know
your state" helps to make up the sum
of knowledge which should be pos
sessed by everyone regarding the
main facts concerning the state in
which he resides.-F1orida Times

The American legion objects to the
use Of the national flag for dressing
dolls. So do the rest of US, for that
matter, and we do not care what the
size of the doll is either. The Ameri-
can flag has its own definite purpose,
its mission, it's destiny, and neither
commercialism nor debated senti-
ment should permit any departure
therefrom. The American flag is to
be looked upon and up to, but it is not
to be used in mere window washing OF
merchandising.

Senator Underwood, democratic lead.
er in the upper house of congress,
gives his fellow party members excel
lent advice when he tells them to quit
their biting and snarling and co-op-
crate with the majority in fastening
legislation necessary for reimbursement
to afterwar conditions. This would
not only be a patriotic course to~pur-
sue but in large sense good politics.
Cheerful cooperation at this time
would at least give the democrats a
reputation for being good losers while
adding to the weight Of anything they
may find to say in criticism of policies
adopted by the republicans.

Duluth Herald Changes Hands


The Duluth Herald has passed into
the hands of M. F. Hanson of Phila-
delphia and Paul Block Of New York
Anton c. Weiss, who for 80 years
published the Herald has retired from
business. The new owners arc men
of wide reputation in the eastern pub
fishing field.
Anton Weiss, once a herd boy on the
prairies Of southwestern Minnesota
raised the Herald to the place it now
holds as one of the most successful
dailies in the northwest. Born in
Sheboygan, Wis.,, he spent his youth in
Redwood county, Mimi, where he went
to school, herded cows and later en-
tered the newspaper business as q
printers devil in little country shop
Afterward he joined the staff of st
Paul newspaper and for seven years
was it's Duluth representative.

Amar Alayan, Awho claims to be an
Armenian prince, was jailed in Min
neapolis the other day upon charge
Of forging a check for SO. Hc de-
clares that he fell into the hands of
the Turks during the war and they left
him destitute. It surprises US that
Amer should have resorted to forgery
to obtain so insignificant a sum when
he could have gone forth with Gre
.dentials written by himself, which no
one could read, and collected a tidy
little sum from the. unsophisticated
for 1.-THE starving people of Armenian
Had Amar been familiar with the
ropes he doubtless would have rcsorted
to this scheme. Several years ago this
country was virtually infested with
swindlcrs operating in the guise- of
Armenian priests, who solicited aims
in behalf of their" oppressed and starv-
ing countrymen" and, while some were
arrested, others succeeded in gather
ing in considerable money without be-
ing apprehended. We remember dis
tinctly that upon one occasion an Ar
menian impostor, posing as a priest,
solicited funds from the late Father
Levings and presented credentials pur-
porting to be written by a bishop in
his own country. By close scrutiny,
however, Father Levings discovered
that the credentials were forgeries and
gave the impostor two hours in which
to leave town. He departed on the
next train and was later heard from
at Duluth, where the police had gath
cred him in. There may yet be fel.
lows of the same stripe still appealing
to the generous-hearted people of this
country, so it is we'll to issue a warn
ing. Any person DESTROYS of assisting
the Armenians or any other people
of Europe should place their money in
the hands Of organized relief societies
and not pass it over to itinerants.

Panther Scrubs To
Play Fayette Today

The Birmingham Southern college
PANTHER scrubs will travel over to
Payette today to meet the Fayette
County High eleven of Coach Mullie
Lenior The Fayette team has gone
through the season undefeated. and
has had easy sailing so far, but the
PANTHER scrubs have visions of up
setting their clean schedule.
The scrubs will enter the game
with practically the same Iine-up thar
faced Marshall County High at Cum
tersVllle recently. but the team is in
better condition for today's game and
II should be a hard fight. Sixteen
men are making the trip to the Fay
cite capital with Coach Bob Rowe.
CaptIJulian Anderson will run the
team at qual terback, and the rest of
the backfield will be composed of
Goison, Stead and Crew. Anderson
mas been playing a star game in the
'oackheld this year and is good look
ing varsity material for next year.
The line will be composed of such
huskies as Englebert, Alternately.
Alexander, Whiteside, Red" Farr.
Cameron, Norton and Clark, while
Howell, Levie and Echols are good
reserve men. DeYampert is a good
secondary back and always manages
to tear off neat gains.
The team put through snappy
workout Wednesday afternoon in
preparation for the game and went
through all of their plays that will
be used against the Fayette coun-
tians. The eleven as whole is anx-
ious for action after being out of the
harness for over a week

COURTS ADJOURN

All business will be suspended at
the courthouse today and all en-
pioyes with the exception of the
