It is gratifying to learn that a be-
fitting and lasting tribute will be paid
to the late Surgeon General Gorgas in
the shape of memorial institute to
be erected at Panama. According to
an announcement by those in charge
of the work, the institute will be de-
voted largely to tropical medicine. It
may be recalled that Gorgas was the
scientist who cleaned up the so-called
"pest hole Of the Pacific" and virtual
ly wiped out the yellow fever plague,
and that he was engaged in this work
when overtaken by death. He pre-
dicted that the day would come when
science would make the tropics as
healthful for the white race as the
temperate zone, and that commerce
would flourish in torrid regions then
by man. The memorial
institute, which will have the co-opera-
ton of medical institutions in the
leading nations of the world, will
labor to further research in tropical
sanitation and medicine which SO
largely occupied the career of the dis
scientist, Surgeon General
Gorgas.

The fusion forces of North Dakota
have decided to hold recall election
between now and November 8 for the
purpose of endeavoring to unseat Gov
ernor Frazier, Attorney General
Lemke and Commissioner of Agricul-
ture Hagan, ell of whom are non
partisan leaguers. R. N. NeStos has
been nominated for governor and
Sveinbjorn Johnson for attorney gen.
eral, while the nomination for COM
missioner of agriculture was left open
until the committee of forty-two Sc
lcctj legionaire to run for that Of
flee. AS the nonpartisan league men,
bership in North Dakota has been
greatly weakened by assertions, there
is scarcely doubt that the recall will
work out satisfactorily to the fusion
lists. 1t is generally conceded that
league rule in North Dakota has al
most reached the end of it's ropc-that
the organization is virtually on the
rocks.

SAVE THE ROADS.

The Scenic highway between M;laca
and Princeton has been almost i'm
passable for two weeks and still the
heavy busscs continue to attempt their
daily trips. Until the roads ere in
better condition, it certainly seems as
though it would be we'll for the pub
lie to patronize these buses as little
as possible for their own convenience
and comfort, if for nothing else.
Tales of buses stranded ell night in
mud holes and of passengers COM
PEELED to walk a mile or two in mud
to their knees, ought not to appeal to
the travelling public.
An attempt is being made to Sc
cure legislation which will compel the
heavy BUSES and trucks to stay off
from the clay and gravel roads for a
few weeks when all soil is softened by
the frost coming out of the ground.
According to the Star News, Mr.. Bah
cock estimates the damage done to the
Scenic highway by the heavy buses
and trucks during the last three or
four weeks at about $4,000.

The action of the legislature on the
highway administration bill was GER
tainly in accordance with the senti-
ment of the majority of voters in Min
nesota. 1t was the highest common
dation which could be given Commits
sioner Babcock, Deputy Commissioner
John Mullen, State Engineer Charles
Forbes and the other members of the
highway department. The vote of the
legislature means that the highway
department has made good in the past
and that the people in the state be-
lieve that the department is so or
ganized that it can handle the work
successfully in the future.

The Highest Tribute.

President Harding has decided that
the official honors to the American
unknown soldier will be held on No.
vember II, 1921, the anniversary of
Armistice day, at the National GEM
etery at Arlington, Va. On that oc-
casion the unknown soldier will be
buried with the highest official honors,
in the presence of President Harding,
Secretary Weeks, Secretary DENLY,
other members of the cabinet, men,
bcrs of the diplomatic corps, and in all
probability representatives from the
principal foreign nations. The pur-
pose of the burial of the unknown
soldier will be to pay the highest trib-
ute to the unidentified American SOL
diers who lost their lives in the world
war. There are about 1000 American
soldiers who gave up their lives for
their country and whose identity has
not been established.

MIGHTY FINE SENTIMENT.

Every newspaper man in Minneso-
ia rejoices at the news that Major
Oliver Duane is recovering nicely
from his recent illness. Men like
Oliver are few and far between, and
we can't afford to spare that kind.
May he live long and prosper, and
continue to blossom like the rose
along the arid deserts of life where 50
many do not have his fine human SEN
timent and sympathy.-Larry Ho.
The above paragraph appeared in
Larry Hos column in the Winnebago
City Enterprise Oliver Quane's &C.
ton in the recent gubernatorial con-
test aroused the admiration of every
right-thinking newspaper man in Min
nosota, but Oliver Duane or any other
man will have to look to his laurcls if
he is to Guido Larry Ho in "fine human
sentiment and sympathy" Is it any
wonder that Laurence Hodgson is
beloved by his newspaper brethren?

British government and the demand
of the American legion through our
state department., the two Americans
who attempted to kidnap that notori-
Gus Stacker, Grover Cleveland Berg
doll, have been released from Ger

There is no doubt that they were legal
ly arrested, as they attempted to ap-
prehend subject of Germany, but at
the same time they are entitled to
praise for. their activities. The next
thing on the program is to get Berg
doll and, under international law, it
is declared he is amenable to extradi-
ton.

high in the estimation of their COL
leagues as do Richard Hamer, William

Now the Mexican government has
decided to investigate an insult to the
American flag, which occurred at AL
varado, when an Old Glory was torn to
shreds and the lives of seamen threat
ened. While it is possible the Mexi-
can authorities will find that the out
rage was committed and apologize to
the United States, it is safe to pre-
dict that the perpetrators will never
be punished. The fact is that Mexi-
can officials gloat over outrages of
this sort and secretly encourage them.

Harvey's Weekly: The publication

. Harvey's Weekly: The publication
of the roll Of dishonor, bearing the
names of all the draft deserters dur
ing the war, will be a most commenda-
BILE thing. No doubt it will evoke nu-
merous protests, from those who hoped
that their disloyalty was forgotten,
from their friends and from certain
type of sentimentalists who have an
itch for condoning scoundrelism and
numbering pity over the criminal while
turning cold shoulder upon his vic
tim. It is really as fitting, as desira-
BILE and as necessary that traitors
should be pilloried as that patriots
should be honored. We should be glad
to see published to the land and to the
world the name Of every man who
Loyalty responded to the call of his
country and of humanity for service
in the great war. We should wish to
see published just as conspicuously the
name of every cowardly Stacker who
lied out of or otherwise shirked his
duty; to be regarded with lasting de-
testation and contempt. The fact that
the war is now ever and that the vic
tory was won without their aid makes
their conduct none the less vile. In
time of peace as well as in time of
war Bergdollism must be made odious.

THE SHEEP AND THE GOATS. 9

The Long Prairie Leader in, it's last
issue hit the nail squarely on the
head in. an editorial on "Good and
False Cooperation" We hope that
every one Of our readers will take
time to peruse the Leaders, editorial
which is published in this issue of
the Union. -,
The Leader is edited by Rudolph
Lee, son of the late William E. Lee.
William Lee was never known to
desert his guns, he had the courage
to stand by his principles even when
they were not popular with the crowd,
and the editor of the Leader shows
the same independence in voicing his
sentiments on questions of vital in
terest to the people of Todd county.
He is a most enthusiastic booster for
the farm bureau and he stood right
by that association when the senti-
ment in his county was rather against
it. Now the farmers in Todd county
are with the farm bureau and the
Leader because they know the man
editing it is their real friend.
We believe the Leader is absolutely
right in it's attitude in regard to CO.
operative enterprises and that these
enterprises will be successful only
when the co-operators confne their
attention to those fields with which
they are familiar. If a newspaper,
store, mill or bank is to be a success,
the man directing that establishment
has to devote all his attention to that
business and no business conducted
only by paid employees can compete
with a business conducted by the own
er himself.
Cooperation is the word of the
hour and grafters are making capital
of public sentiment. Every co-opera-
tive enterprise that fails will give all
the other cooperative enterprises a
black eye, but let us distinguish the
sheep and the goats and not condemn
the whole class of projects because of
few illtimed, poorly organized asso-
Citations.
We believe the farmers in Mile
Laos county can and will make a
success of the cooperative marketing
enterprises and in these projects they
should have the support of every
business man in the county.

The board Of county commissioners
at their meeting Tuesday stated that
the appropriation of $1,000 made for
the farm bureau year ago will be
available until July I, 1921. The COM
missioners, or at least majority of
them, have certainly played square
with the farm bureau and their action
should be much appreciated by all the
members Of that association.

Reed Files Objections
To Hoover With Harding
Missouri Democrat Writes Let
ter of Protest and Will Fight
Confirmation in the Senate
. Tho Trihuurjq IVoqIt,oto- E2yro,.

From The Tri5ume's Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, Feb. Ex-senator
Reed, of Missouri. Democrat, has sent
letter to Senator Harding strongly
protesting against the selection of
Herbert c. Hoover as a member of the
new Cabinet. Senator Reed did not
give out the letter, but admitted one
aad been written.
In general way, it is understood
the objections of Senator Reed are
along the lines of the criticisms against
ar Hoover which he has repeatedly
uttered in the Senate. He has on a
number Of occasions criticized the
policy of Mr.. Hoover as head of the
teod administration. He holds that
M Hoover is an internationalist be-
,ore ne is an American and that his
,eng life abroad has given him a
European rather than an American
viewpoint.
:, Senator Reed will make a speech in
me senate criticizing the appointment
oi MIR. Hoover. 1t is possible he will
make one before March A. IN any
event he will speak against his con-
begins.
Whether Senator Reed will carry his
opposition any further than TO speak
a. Y length against Mr.. Hoover is some
:nlhg on which the Senator refuses SO
!ar 70 make any stateme. t. 1t is gem
esaliy believed that there will be no
psosracted fight against the confirma-
tion OF Mr.. Hoover or any other mem
Osr Of the new Cabinet.
