Let's Be Neighborly!

Leslie's Weekly: Mexico bought
four times as much from the United
States in 1928 as she bought from
any other country. She sold to us
over seven time as much as to any
other country. In spite of Mexican
distrust and Yankee bumptiousness
and ignorance of the Mexican point of
view, the mutual economic interests of
the two neighbors are so i~nter-related
that no political propaganda can out
weigh them.
The arguments for a cordial under
standing are so strong that it would
appear almost incredible that those in
any position to assist such al under
standing should disregard them. But
something more than official action is
necessary. Americans must get over
their provincialism, at least enough to
meet Mexicans with some approach to
the courtesy with which Spanish-Am-
orleans are accustomed to meet and be
met; and Mexicans must get over their
~anti-foreign nervousness sufficiently
to realize how much they are in need
of foreign help and to treat those who
do help them with more appreciation.
AS a starter to this better under
standing, Americans might well under
take in Mexico-a field close at hand
some of those philanthropic activi-
ties which are receiving such splendid

AROUND THE CORNER

Around the corner I have a friend,
In this great city which has no end;
Yet days go by and weeks rush on,
And before I know a year is gone,
And I never see my old friends face;
For Life is a swift and terrible race.
He knows I like him just as well
AS in the days when I rang his bell
And he rang mine. We were younger then;
And now we are busy, tired men
Tired with playing a foolish game;
Tired with trying to make a name.
Tomorrow" 1 say, II will call on Jim
Just to show that I'm thinking Of him."
But tomorrow comes-and tomorrow goes;
And the distance between US grows and grows.
Around the corner!-yet miles away
"Here's a telegram, sir" " Jim died today!"
And that's what we get-yet deserve in the
end
Around the corner a vanished friend.

In Alamakee County, Iowa, they have a
woman Sheriff. She was appointed to this office
on the death of her husband. She could do it
easily, they said because that was a law abiding
county. Then-a teachers dead body was found
in the basement of the school house. What did
the frail little sheriff do? She asked a %neighbor
to care for her children, then dressing in service
able clothing, she started bloodhounds on the scent,
and followed them over the hills and dale, in mud
sometimes ankledeep, all night long, into the next
county, where the trail led her to a man under
suspicion, who was about to board a train. She
took him back to Jail, and cross-questioned him
all another night, until he confessed he was gull
ty. She dispersed a mob who had come to hang
him, then, all this done, she went home to sleep,
and to "catch up" with her housework." If
he received the death sentence, as it is expected
he will, the sheriff is the one to spring the trap
that will send him to his doom. She only says:
81 am ready to do my duty" And man, great
man, can do no more!-Dora N. Ruud in Granite

.eThere is something else I want to talk to
Won about" Uri continued. 81 have heard people
saw that YOU were Of Nazareth. Now | wouldn't
advertise that too much. You know the people
saw. Can any good thing come out OF Nazareth !!
And we must avoid anything that might offend
the neople. Give the people what they want is
the way to succeed.
"Now, tell me-" Uri went on, lis there not
some other place with which you are associated
by ties Of something or other ?"
aHe was born in Bethlehem" he with the
bag volunteered.
Uri Ben Ahithophel leaped up.
"In Bethlehem ?" he cried. "The very place!
The birthplace of a king"
"He is of the seed of David"
"He is? Come, come, this is great. We
shall begin the big demonstration at Bethlehem.
Leave that to me. We shall advertise you as the
son of David. That alone will give you popular
applause. We shall speak Of the glorious reign
of David and Solomon, and that a scion of that
house has come to them to lead them
to"
The PROPHETS look silenced Uri Ben Ahith-
ophel. He remained quiet for a long time. At
he had an unearthly feeling, then his mind
reverted to the kingdoms of this world and the
GLORY of them. He turned to the man with the
eyes.
"Your master might win the whole country"
he said, eff he listened to reason; but"
He shook his head sadly, and left.-The Out

At considerable labor and expense the Ga

At considerable labor and expense the Ga
zette this week publishes the complete annual re-
port of County Engineer J. F. O'Meara on the
work done on and for the Redwood County Road
System. No other single enterprise in the coun-
ty entailed the expenditure nor employed the men
that the road work did and the detailed report is
interesting to every resident Of the county. That
Redwood County has long had a most splendid
system of roads is a fact we'll known not only in
this section but everywhere throughout the state.
That this system has been pushed much farther
on the way to perfection, at a very modest charge
considering the amount of work done, is due to
Mr.. O'Meara's excellent understanding of the pro-
blems involved in good road making and to his
careful and judicious management. Redwood
County was one of the pioneer counties of the
state, the first in Southwestern Minnesota to pro-
vide excellent road facilities. Now that the
pioneer days are over the County, is just as eager
to maintain these roads and to build additional
roadway by the most approved and economical
methods. The efficiency with which this is being
done may be learned from Mr.. OMeara's report.

In the past few days quite a number have
called at the Herald office to offer the sugges-
ton that it is impossible, and would be class
legislation if done, for the government to pool
the wheat of the nation, and set a fair price
on the grain, as was done in war time. We are
not so sure of that, We believe it clearly with
in the range of the government to do that very
thing, as a measure to stimulate the greatest
and most important industry of the world. If
the farmer cannot maintain what is to become
of the rest Of humanity. On the farmer de-
ponds all. If the farmer and stock raiser fail
what then; what will become of the merchant,
the banker, and all trades people? Speaking of
class legislation note what Minnesota did some
years ago; it set a minimum price on wages.
Under that law if you want a young man to
sweep out your office the law steps in and says
you must pay him $1O.25 a week, failure to do
SO subjects you to fine, and Imprisonment if you
fail to pay the fine. If the state of Minnesota
can pass such a law, and get away with it, it is
likely the federal government can set a price
on wheat. It would seem so, anyway-Le Sueur
Herald.

support in the Far East and Near
East. Bad sanitation, poor education
al facilities, and similar socially dis
advantageous conditions in Mexico
have not as yet stirred the interest Of
Americans as they should have done.
Not mere altruism but practical
political sense demands this. The
United States needs a strong, healthy,
c%ontented, Independent Mexico. Such
a neighbor would be better for us in
every way than any sort Of discon-
tented p~rotectorate or still more hos
tile province.

FRANK WRITES TO JOE

~ REPRESENTATIVE Frank Clague is not
X candidate for the United States senate t.
L succeed Frank B. Kellogg. He will not b
a. candidate. In a letter to the editor Of The Free
Press, Mr.. Clague says:
"Quite a number of the papers through
out the state have mentioned my being a
candidate or possible candidate for the
United States senate. A number OF my
friends have written me regarding the
matter. However, this has not turned
nv head in the least. | am not and 40
not intend to be a candidate for the SEN
ate. While greatly appreciate what my
friends have said in this matter, | am not
a candidate for the United States senate.
However, I am a candidate for nomina-
ton and reelection to the house.
"You have heretofore in several OF your
issues, stated my position very clearly,
but as some of the papers are rather
i~nsistent in mentioning the fact that l
may be a candidate, l am writing you in
order that you may have first hand in
formation. Under no circumstances, do
intend to be a candidate for any other
position than the one / now hold"
Mr.. Clague's position regarding the senator
ship is plan and unequivocal. His wishes should
be respected. That he will be renominated ano
to the house, there is not a shadow OF
doubt. Later there must be advancement fol

 It had big ideas. according to the ''early settlers It took the name of the commander of the American armies in the war, and General Pershing. justly proud. gave money for it's beautiful church edihce.
 But it wanted public improveme nts and bonded itself for s14O.000. Taxes soon scared. They reached 16 per cent. where they are. at present, and thes Pershingites began to ''pun' up stakes and move. Some of the buildings which were portable were hauled out of town. Others were boarded up
 Oklahoma taxpayers who took SSo,- GOO of Fershings bonds have now asked for an investigation. which has been ordered, to ascertain why the interest on their bonds has not been kept up.
 And in the meantime Pershing won ders what it will do to solve its prob lem-taxes, taxes and still more taxes,
