We hasten to print the following very rea
compliments of other editors concerning Mrs. Bes:
Wilson while she is away on her vacation; for i
she were here we know they would not likely fint
their way into the Gazette unless she had som'
'scintillating' retort to make.
Herman Roe of the Mortified News says
he would "like to see beautiful fir set out
on Riverside Drive" Herman has nothing on
us-we like to see beautiful fur set any
where but preferably in our own wardrobe
Redwood Falls Gazette.
The above is from the Redwood Gazette,
edited by Bess Wilson, one of the brightest
writer's on the Minnesota press. 1t Bess,
dear, had nothing else to do but scintillate
editorially she would back all her male con-
temporaries off the board-even Billy Noonan
would have to take back seat.-Fairmont
Sentinel.
Frank Day of the Fairmont Sentinel says
that Bess Wilson of the Redwood Falls Gaz-
cite would be better paragrapher than the
Region editor if she could devote more time
to it. Frank can't get rise out OF us on that
question Bess wins the nomination even
if she has to take time off to bake the biscuits
and do the dishes.-Baudette Region.
Redwood Falls people appreciate the fac
that the editors Of the state regard Mrs. Wilson
with the same high esteem as that in which they
themselves hold her.

"My Country! May she ever be in the right,
but my country, right or wrongW This memoir
able toast of Stephen Decatur, concerning which
there has ever been discussion pro and con as to
the worthiness of the ideal therein expressed, re.
ceived short but powerful thrust at the hands
of DR.. Hubert at Chautauqua. Mr.. Hubert said,
America! May she ever be in the right; but when
she is wrong-then fight like a steer to put her
in the right. These two statements were born
of the intense patriotism of two individuals both
of whom had the best interests of our country at
heart. But which one Of the two ideals do you
think should be inscribed on the banner which we
ought to follow? Which statement in your opin-
ion embodies the best expression of the ideals OF
American patriotism? To you which exemplifies
the highest type Of intelligent Americanism?

COLD RECEPTION FOR NEIGHBOR'S
CHICKENS

~ NE of our citizens has discovered an effectu-
I al way of causing his neighbors chickens

Stationing himself behind tree and armed with
the lawn hose which kinks well, he awaits the
charge of the feathered tribe. When they have
approached near enough to begin their depreda-

with deadly aim he releases the kink and REFUSES

HOLD FAST YOUR DREAMS

Hold fast your dreams!
Within your heart
Keep one, still, secret spot
Where dreams may go,
And sheltered so,
May thrive and grow
Where doubt and fear are not.
O, keep place apart,
Within your heart,
For little dreams to go!
Think still of lovely things that are not true.
Let wish and magic work>at will in you
Be sometimes blind to sorrow. Make believe!
Forget the calm that lies
In disillusioned eyes. a
Though we all know that we must die,
Yet you and I
May walk like gods and be
Even now at home in Immortality
We see so many ugly things
Deceits and wrongs and quarrehngs;
We know, alas! we know
How quickly fade
The color in the west,
The bloom upon the flower,
The bloom upon the breast
And youths blind hour.
Yet, keep within your heart
A place apart
Where little dreams may go,
May thrive and grow
Hold fast-hold fast your dreams!

PROHIBITION IN REDWOOD FALLS

~ NE man who was "abOut" considerable on
I the Fourth remarked that he had seen but
~ three individuals "mooned up" during the
entire day. Others interviewed no greater
number, nor did we. That there were others who
We're not noticed is, of course, certain; but con-
sidering the great crowd Of between eight and
twelve thousand who were present here that day,
the number of ''topers" was proportionally
negligible quantity. If one but casts his thot
back to the days before prohibition, to the days
of the wide open" saloon, the type Of celebration
in which many men degraded themselves below
the level of the brute comes to mind intoxicated
men on every hand, the reek Of whisky breath
wherever one turned marked every public cele-
bration in those days. And yet in the face of the
changed conditions between those celebrations and
this, there are some-w1ith whom the wish is
very frequently the father to the thot-who
sert that prohibition is failure.
That prohibition is not perfect success is
of course admitted by all But as DR.. Northrop
said in the last speech he ever wrote, "What
thing is a complete success ?" Yet the fact re-
mains that it has given us improved conditions.
The use of lincolnshire" has, nevertheless, been
more prevalent since the advent Of prohibition
than it should have been for the very simple rea-
son that the public was rather amused to see the
antics of one thanked up Since the success of
any law depends very largely for it's enforce
ment upon the complexion of public opinion, the
law failed to some extent in spite OF the best
efforts Of prohibition agents. But the face of
public opinion is rapidly undergoing change
Instead of wearing smile of amused tolerance,
frown of determination to strangle this serpent
upon the bosom Of America is growing more and
more evident upon the countenance of self re-
speeding and patriotic citizens. If there is diff
ference of opinion as to the desirabiity Of the
18th. Amendment, the DIRECTORS thereto have
the perfect right to work for its repeal; but in
the meantime no patriotic citizen has the right
to violate the 18th. Amendment, actual part
of our fundamental law. If others are permitted
to violate it, to what anarchy must such at
plunge this country? It is the growing realiza-
tion of these basic facts which is changing the
attitude of public opinion toward this nefarious
and insidious traffic. From conversations Of
thinking citizens, it is not difficult to see that
the time is coming when the "toper" will be po-
pularly regarded with the same scorn and con-
tempt as that in which the drug addict, for ex-
. ample, is held.
Redwood Falls and the tributary territory
certainly have right to be proud of the freedom
from marring influences on her patriotic obser-
vance of the Fourth Legion are they who were
glad to note that the individuals were relatively
few indeed who took independence Day to mean
that their life and conduct was INDEPENDENT
Of the existence Of the government and its laws.

Lease Made 20 Years
Ago Is Finally Recorded

The recording of q lease of the
property at l39 Broadway several days
ago gave rise to "a report that occu-
pancy of the property was affected.
The fact is that the lease recorded
was made twenty years ago and was
put on file at the Registers office to
make possible the issuance of a title
policy to the Manufacturers Trust
Company, which occupies the property
1t is the two-story building formerly
occupied by the Liberty National Bank.
which merged with the New York
Trust Company two years ago and then
transferred its business to the parent
,comlpany's Offices in the Equitable
building.
The lease held by the Liberty
National Bank from the Washington
Life Insurance Company, which owned
this property and the corner sky
scraper at the time, had never been
recorded. 1t had been assigned to the
Chrlstoffer Hannevig, which went into
bankruptcy. From the receivers for
this concern the Manufacturers Trust
Company, of which Nathan S. Jonas is
president, purchased the lease. Mr..
Jonas made request on the New York
trust Company some time ago that the
old lease be recorded in order to hJl
out the missing link in the realty his
tory OF this property so that the pres
ent tenants could insure their lease.
The New York Trust Company natural
ly filed the lease, which gave ground
To the report that the Liberty National
Bank had leased the property.

Petlller Inquiry

With Delight q,
Market Commissioners So
Much Pleased He Persists
i'm Refusal to Waive Inn
nltlnity Before Grand Jury
Others Answer Questions
Woman Deputy Sought in
Investigation Is Work
ing Up State just Now

Commissioner Of Markets edwin j.
OMalley was once more brought be-
fore the Brooklyn grand jury yester-
day In connection with District Attor-
ney Ruston's investigation of alleged
graft in the Markets Department. He
was questioned for about three hours,
at the end of which time he told re-
porters, 81 answered every question
put to me. 1t was delightful"
The Commissioner appeared at the
County Court in Brooklyn with his
aid, Aloysius Malloy. about 10
o'clock, laden with number of books
and papers bearing on the matter. He
continued in his determination not TO
sign waiver Of immunity, offering to
reporters the rather puzzling explana-
tion, "Why should / sign waiver Of
immunity since | have nothing TO
fear ?"
The subpoenas served on the Com
missioner and his aid yesterday, how
ever, were 80 worded that they as
sured their appearance for questioning
without exempting them from any
possible action that might grow out of
| the inquiry. They read; sIn the mat
ter of the inquiry into the alleged will
full and corrupt misconduct in office Of
public officials in the County OF
Kings"
The Commissioner said upon arrival
at the courthouse that he had no OBJ
lection to testifying before the grand
know" he said, "but l will not sign a
ty1ra i,o of r 4 boFo al,
Meyer committee, on advice of coun-
sci. | will tell all ] know | have
nothing to be afraid of"
Shortly after DR.. Samuel Buchler,
former Deputy Commissioner Of Mar
kets, arrived and went into the grand
jury room. When he came out he said
he had been interrogated on his knowl-
edge of the appointments of street
market supervisors, the fees paid by
peddlers and the relations existing be-
tween supervisors and peddlers.
Commissioner O'Malley's assistant
Malloy, was not questioned during the
day, but will be examined some time
to-day. It is probable that the Com
missioner will also be questioned again
to-day
| District Attorney Ruston made it
clear that the investigation into the
Markets Department, particularly with
respect to the supervisors of street
markets, will be thorough. 'eThere will
be no whitewashing," he said, land no
one who may be guilty will receive
Immunity"
Mrs. Blanche Welzmiller, deputy
commissioner of markets, is also
| sought for questioning by the grand
jury. She is said TO be in Buffalo for
the ostensible purpose of co-ordinat-
| ing the markets of the state. Two
| other witnesses, John HaIler and John
+. Reilly, supervisors, have been sum
moned as witnesses.
