STATEMENT.

Editor Ely Miner.
Dear Sir.-During my stay in st.
Paul / have been solicited by many
friends to write letter making an
announcement of my political plans.
did not think it was necessary,
but l have finally concluded to do
so, and l write this letter to the
people of Minnesota.
! shall next year be a candidate
for the Senate to succeed myself.
Five years ago the people of this
State honored me with their con-
fidence and elected me to the
United States Senate. / took my
seat at the beginning of the great
war, and my term of service has
represented one of the most critical
periods in American history. Not
only have we been confronted with
the tremendous problems of war,
but the equally difficult economic,
social and foreign questions follow
ing the close of the conflict.
shall make no statements as to my
services. / have given to the State
and the Nation all of my time and
the utmost of my ability and ex-
perience. If in my public career
have met expectations and APP
prevail of the people of this State,
i should deem it an honor to receive
their endorsement. My duties are
such that l cannot leave Washing
ton to carry on personal CAM
paign, and have no taste or talent
for wire-pulling or political in
trigue. l am perfectly willing to
leave the matter to the people of
Minnesota.

In speaking recently to garden
ers about the city on the excel
lency of the crops, all were of the
opinion that gardens had been as
prolific in years past but that this
year the work of maintaining the
garden had not been as onerous
owing to the action of the authori-
ties in suppressing the running at
large of cattle. In years gone by
people planting gardens have been
forced to plant two and three times
by reason of cattle breaking in and
destroying their efforts and in
many cases the gardens have been
destroyed at just about the time
something was to be realized from
them. This year things were
changed and cattle owners have
been. compelled to care for their
own cattle and the gardener has
not been forced to build high
priced fences to herd other peoples
beasts. Early in the season Mayor
Chinn made it. known that cattle
would not be allowed to run at
large, neither would the city hire
herder as in years past. This
edict had the desired effect. A
few failed to heed the orders and
were promptly called up on the
carpet and dealt with. The ''poor
mans COW" has been a sore spot
in all the range towns for years
and while many were of the opinion
that the ordinances relating to the
running at large of cattle We're too
drastic, it nevertheless remains
fact that Ely was up to this year
the only city in the state where
cattle were allowed more liberties
than were allowed your children.
Besides there is a law on the state
books against the running at large
of cattle and local authorities could
use this law if they felt so dis
posed. Not only the gardens were
left unmolested this year but the
city streets and boulevards showed
much improvement. Much credit
is due the authorities for their firm
stand in the matter notwithstand-
ing the heavy pressure brought to
bear on them to wink" at the
cattle infractions. 1t is also es-
timated that the garden produce
this year in Ely was ten-fold the
value of all the milk produced in
the city the past year or so.

Personal Liability for Fires.

In the Insurance Bulletin issued
by the State of Minnesota the fol-
lowing is given. AS the question
as to liability for fire damage has
been in the courts in this state
since the 1918 holocaust, we re-
print the article. 1t says:
"In Exodus xxii:6 we, read: eff
fire break out, and catch in thorns,
so that the stalks of corn, or stand
ing corn, or the field be consumed,
Herewith, he that kindleth the fire
shall surely make restitution"
''This is the law of Moses.
"a farmer setting brush fire
on his own land, who permits it to
escape to his neighbours land, is
liable for any damage done to the
neighbor by such fire.
Railroad companies are liable
for damages caused by locomotive
sparks.
Tenants have recovered damages
from landlords, caused by fire or
iginating from a chimney known
to be defective.
'This is the law of today.
"The Supreme Court of Michigan
has decided that One through
WHOSS HcSHSSilCt uIe Is CduScu Iii
his building, which spreads to his
neigbor's building, is liable for
damages
"a few more actions for damages
due to fires caused by gross negli-
gence or violation of local ordi-
nances or State laws would impress
upon all the fact that each one is
his brothers keeper
IF your careless neighbor know
ingly harbors a defective chimney
rubbish-filled basement, a trash.
laden attic, defective electric wir.
ing, stoves installed so as to en-
danger woodwork, or is careless in
the use of gasoline or the storage
of other oils, oily waste and rags
then he is careless of the safety
of his own property and family
and the lives of firemen. It is
therefore your duty to warn him
and to notify the proper authorities
Such man needs discipline, not
sympathy, in case he has a fire
He must be taught the lesson that
since the days of Robinson Crusoe
No man liveth to himself alone,
and each owes duty to, the other.
Hold him to strict account for the
results of his carelessness.
Further each city should, by
ordinance, require such man to
pay to the city the cost of putting
out fire, caused by clear negli-
gence.
"Strict enforcement of such laws
and ordinances would eliminate the
many careless fires"

SOVIET RUSSIA.

There is an old proverb which
and he will hang himself. Russia
stands before the world as a proof.
MARKHAM socialism was turned loose
in one of the greatest surplus food
producing countries in the world,
and in less than four years a fam
inc stricken people are begging for
bread.
In 1913 that country produced
950,000,000, bushels of wheat. Our
crop the same year was 750,000,000
bushels. Its oats crop was 1926
100000 bushels or about Is per
ent more than ours. It produced
more barley than all the rest of
Europe, and nearly as much as the
entire outside world. It's rye crop
vas 1,000,000,000, bushels, while
the rest of the world, the United
States included, raised about $780,
100000, bushels.
In the same year Russia raised
four times as many potatoes as
ioes the United States in a normal
year; its production approximated
enc third of the worlds total. 1t
was large exporter and producer
CT beet sugar, raising in that same
year, 100000 tons which was
almost one fifth of the worlds total.
Aside from the United States it
was the greatest livestock country
in the world 1t had more cattle
than France, Germany and the
United Kingdom, twice as many
sheep, and great numbers of swine,
goats and horses. 1t was a pro-
Queer and exporter of food, paying
for its imports by its agricultural
products.
And now it is starving but not
because of an unkind providence.
The drouth now pleaded was not in
the rich winter wheat area where
most of Russia's former crops are
produced. One glance at industry
under Marx and Lenine tells why
Russia was once the fourth largest
spinner of cotton. A world survey
of the cotton industry as of Janu-
airy l, made by the Master Spinners
Federation, showed $4,000 Russian
splndles running and $4,000 idle
The proportion holds true in all in
dustry and transportation. The
people freeze in land of forests,
coal and petroleum.
Even as the ascription of Russia's
woes to the blockade was a lie, so
also is the ascription of the crop
failure to drouth the merest at
tempt to evade the consequences
of soviet rule. On May 3, last be-
fore the drouth could possibly have
been foreseen, the Wall Street
Journal said:
The Russian wheat crop will fail
this year so completely that there
will be insufficient food for the
people who reap the harvest and
no surplus for the rest of the
nation, to say nothing of export.
1t will fail because the large wheat
growers have been wiped out, while
the peasant cultivators have little
or no seed wheat Trotsky's army
OF three million men plus the soviet
commissioners all over European
Russia and Siberia have eaten up
every store of grain as faithfully
as the locust"
This did not pretend to be pro
phesy. 1t was the merest reason
ing from cause to effect. Every
result of soviet government has
been accurately forecast in the same
way. Socialism is not based upon
reason but like anything else it dis
obeys at its peril laws which it can
not dictate or control.

is also present when the trans-ship-

in the event train is missed and
schedule changed accordingly, an
other telegram may be dispatched
to the post giving the changed in
formation. Where bodies are des-
tined for Legion posts in other
states, the department headquarters
Of the respective states are wired

post exists at point of burial, the
nearest Legion post assumes re-
sponsibility for providing a suitable
military funeral. Representatives
of the st. Paul posts of the Legion
are also present at the st. Paul De-
pot to pay their respect to the re-
turning heroes remains, placing
flowers and blood-red peoples on
each casket.
From every part of the state,
Minnesota Legionaires are address
sing state headquarters concerning
reservations on the special train to
Kansas City to attend the Legion
National Convention. Chisholm
Post writes: keep places for if
teen Legionaires from this burg.
Wilmar Post declares: Members
of our post plan attending the
national convention in large num-
bers and are arranging for a special
car, Willmar to st. Paul, to be at
tached to the Minnesota Legion
Special from st. Paul to Kansas
City,. Second district officers ex-
pect to have. one hundred or more
in the second district delegation to
join the special for Kansas City.
All these buddies are going because
of their interest, not as official dele
gates with votes, of which Mime
sofa expects to have 35 at the
Legion convention and about 25 at
the Legion Auxiliary National Con-
vention. While the regular fare to
Kansas City is about $50. the low
rate for the Legion Convention is
$10.61 from the Twin Cities, or l
cent per mile from any point in
Minnesota.
eff any Legion posts in Minnesota
are interested in moving picture
programs, have them communicate
with national headquarters at Indi-
annapolis, writes National Adjutant
Bolles, who adds, Several tentative
programs of moving pictures are
available, composed of war action
pictures and certain high grade
comedy and feature pictures. A
charge is made to cover cost of
distribution, but posts can defray
the costs at special shows by charg-
ing an admission fee or making a
collection.
It is the hope of Minnesota's
Official Legion Band from the
David Visited Post of Duluth to win
both cash and honor for Minnesota
at the Legion National Convention,
where band contest will be staged,
first. prize $1,000, second prize
$500, third prize $3.50, in addition
to many other prizes. The bands
will be judged as they lead their
home state delegations in the great
convention parade. Legionaires Of
Minnesota will be proud to march
behind their official band and are
confident that it will come out on
top, in spite of the fact that hun
dreds Of Legion bands from every
state in the Union expect to COM

Extremes never lead us to the
truth of justice The man who
says that labor must not impose on
others is lop-sided unless he is
equally sure that labor must not be
imposed on. The man who says
that capital must not deprive the
workers of their just rights, is
short-sighted unless he perceives
also that capital must not be de-
prived of its just rights.

Some of the towns and villages
along State Highway No. 10 are
working their heads off and stir
ring things up generally to get the
highway run through their towns.
Others are offering to double the
appropriation asked for marking
the way if the road is run away
from their main streets. The. high
way brings hundreds of tourists
through town and perhaps one
out of hundred stops to buy a
cigar, an ice cream cone or a few
gallons of gas. The rest scoot
through so fast they hardly know
the town is there and imperil the
life and limbs of any, especially
children, who venture to cross tie
streets. The time is coming and
coming soon, when every town will
have to maintain several traffic
cops to protect its citizens from
speed maniacs.-Clara City Herald.

How true is the above statement.
In our nearly forty years of news
paper experience we can recall
many incidents where we have be-
friended men, elected them to of
flee, said hundreds of nice and
pleasant things about them and they
soon forget it. When they had an
opportunity to pay us in some act
of service that did not cost them
anything, they forget, or started
out with a harpocn to get even for
some imaginary wrong. But such
is the life of a newspaper man.
