WHY CAN'T THEY AGREE.

w. HAT is there about life on home
M stead that so frequently makes peo-
W pie so bitter? One would imagine
that with neighbors living at least quarter
of a mile apart they would be able to get
along, especially in a new country, where
cooperation means so much to everybody, but
in many cases they fight like the well known
Kilkenny cats. Take the Miller-Bowman
case, for instance.
A year ago Robert Miller and Ellis Bow
man, south of Baudette, quarreled over the
ownership Of few dollars worth of hay, and
note the events that have followed:
Archie Fenton, an innocent bystander, was
killed, leaving a wife and child with no means
of support.
Robert Miller is serving life term in pri-
son, leaving his wife and five children desti-
tute.
George Miller had to undergo grueling
trial for murder, which cost him hundreds of
dollars.
Ole Hanson, another innocent bystander,
was brutally beaten up, and Herb Hendry,
who also had no interest in the original dis
pute, got a couple of black eyes out of it.
Ellis Bowman and his wife are out on bonds
awaiting trial for assault
And on top Of it all, the taxpayers of Bel
trani county have had to dig up thousands
Of dollars in court expenses.
And the end is not yet.-Baudette Region.
1t isn't the homestead life that does it, Region
Its just the ornery cussedness of human nature
The most tragic thing in the world is human hate
md it is found everywhere, not always taking tn
orm Of physical killing but sure to mean dealt
ooner or later to both hater and hatee. Wha
his old world needs is broader application O.
hose laws of Christianity under which it pro
esses to live.
