Fight Dam

The proposed dam in the Minnesota
river at New Ulm, which has been
urged by members Of the Minnesota
Valley Conservatory district board,
and which would create a large body
of shallow water at that place, found
decided opposition at mass meeting
which was held at New Ulm recently.
A committee of five will enter en-
phatic protest to the board against
any recommendation which provides
for a dam there, on account of the
permanent damage to farm land and
city property. It is also claimed that
it would be impossible to maintain a
suitable stage of water at all times
and that in dry seasons large NOR
ass would endanger the health of citi-
zens.

~ Returns from thirty-eight precincts
redwood County revealed some in
-.esting facts to both politicians and
oters Tuesday. The remaining pre-
cincts were slow in sending in returns
and had not been heard from up to
noon.
The most satisfactory result of the
election was the strong lead given
Miss Fen Kennedy in her candidacy
fer Superintendent of County Schools.
BY noon Miss Kennedy was leading by
approximately twenty-five hundred
votes, her closest opponent being E.
V. Henlsworth.
Another contest that had attracted
much attention was the contest for
the treasurership. In field of six,
unofficial returns showed Arthur Falk
of Underwood high man by comfort
able majority with Leo Hammer of
Redwood Falls a very strong second.
C. ". Everett was the third man in
this race and the other candidates
were considerably lower in the scale
of votes. Falk 1896, Hammer 963 and
Everett 1893.
A. w. Olson of Walnut Grove will
compete with C M. Bendixen in the
finals for the office Of Representative
of the County. The thirty eight pre-
cincts give Olson 1471 and Bendixen
1851. Van Horn was a weak third in
this race.
In the state senator race A. G.. Dol
lift carried Redwood County by about
a thousand votes Returns from
Brown County were coming in very
slowly however and the outcome OF
this contest is still problematical.
as III the Commissioner contest in the
,nberton District the present COM
.ssioner, John Arends won by a
lie of 213 to Vollmer's 20 and Ham
5n's 72. This vote puts Arends and
Han1lon on the final ballot.

dom Club and they are going to make
real day of it with band, nuf lunch
FOR both dinner and supper, best neck
lies and everything! The chief argu-
nent that it will be one big day seems
to lie in the fact that it is to be strict

to show her head in Ramsey Park that
dayi Window having set this stag
ball rolling there seems nothing Tor
it but that Lamberton and Redwood
alls shall fall in line and therefore
> ladies of those two towns are
9aI'v invited to stay at home, too.
aa15 way that it is possible for
aides of the three towns to get
/ is for them to insist that each

without any assistance from mere
woman.
The Redwood Falls Club plans to
make the day a real one also and to
1eniov to the utmost the visit from
W;ndom and Lamberton. The Scenic

II show the visiting towns how much
snnerior this band is to those they

Implement Dealers Meet

The meeting of the Implement
Dealers Of Redwood and RenviIle
Counties held hera> last Tuesday was
poorly attended both by dealers and
by the farmers who had been invited
to meet with them, this poor atten-
dance undoubtedly being due to the
busy season for all OF these men.

ness men of Redwood Falls met at
supper IN the armory dining room
at six o'clock. The evening program
consisted Of talks by n. Z. Seder OF

Congress Record
Good Says Newton
MINNEAPOLIS MEMBER TELLS
WHAT PRESENT CONGRESS
HAS ACCOMPLISHED.

Those who criticize the present con-
gress as "do nothing body should
study it's record of accomplishment,
Congressman Walter III. Newton of
Minneapolis said on his arrival from
Washington last Friday.
"As result of teamwork between
the president and congress and initia-
tive on the part of congress" he said,
1--WE have record of accomplishment
that stands unparalleled in the legis-
lative history of our country. Any
fair minded person who studies that
record will say that the do nothing
criticism is unjust, even if he does not
agree with all that has been done. I
have not agreed myself with every
thing passed, but congress has carried
out practically all the recommends
tions in the presidents message at the
time Of the beginning Of the extra
session"
Hits Senate Traffic Changes.
Mr.. Newton declared that he and
other house members will make fight
on many items of the tariff bill, If it
comes back to the house as framed by
the senate committee. "Many of the
changes proposed by the senate com
mittee regard as mistake" he said,
Especially the higher duties on food
products. Most Of the duties were
plenty high in the house bill. The
senate duty Of 45 cents q bushel on
flaxseed is far too high. The house
duty of Is cents is high, unless there
is compensatory duty on linseed oil.
The present situation has cripped our
linseed oil industry.
"At the same time, in any tariff
legislation we must recognize the
wage situation and the lower stan
dards of living abroad. Data on this
subject are almost worthless because
conditions change so fast, but we can
not lower the living standard OF the
American workman"
Cites Wages in Berlin.
Mr.. Newton cited comparison IN
weekly wages of Berlin workmen be-
tween 1918 and Dec. 81, 1921, stated
in American exchange, as follows:

Mr.. Newton said the controversy
over sale of liquor on shipping board
vessels is not likely to affect the ship
subsidy vote.
s.It will result undoubtedly" he said,
Gin no more liquor being sold on ship
ming board vessels" The bonus bill
is expected to pass the senate substan-
TALLY as reported by the senate COM
nlittee, he said.
Congress has carried out presiden-
tial recommendations, Mr.. Newton
said, in the following respects:
Cut in Appropriations.
Appropriations cut to less than 3d.
900 900 900 for next year, and cut OF
s1 500 900 900 from 1921 department
estimates; budget law passed; internal
revenue taxes reduced $8O0,000 900 a
year, with nuisance taxes repeated
and exemptions increased, ana the

control bill passed, and radio controi
now pending; Veterans bureau legls-
lation for disabled soldiers; maternity
bill: antilynching bill passed by house;
traiff bill passed by house; peace re-
solution passed.
The merchant marine measure IS
coming out of committee, and the well
fare department bill has been laid over
by consent pending the report OF the
committee on reorganization OF depart
ments. This accounts for all the pre-
sidental recommendations. In adolf
tion Mr.. Newton cited these measures
passed: Debt funding bill placing Al
lied loans on sound basis; antidump-
ing measure to protect American mar
kets; reorganization Of patent office;
the antibeer measure; amendment TO
