The Kellogg forces have finally awoke.
The value of advertising was never more
clearly displayed than in the campaign
Just started Kellogg is poor advertis-
er, even Roosevelt said so, and Teddy had
: lot of confidence in Mr.. Kellogg. He
has not spread broadcast over the state
the things that he has accomplished.
He is no good in footing his own horn.
He never told the people how much he
had accomplished for the Farm Bureau,
how he secured 100000 highway equip
ment from the government, how under
the Kellogg amendment to the War Fin
ance bill over $17,00OO00 has come to the
farmers in Minnesota, how all the farmer
organizations have endorsed his work in
the senate, and last but not least he never
advertised the fact that he was the means
of putting real dirt farmer on the fed
eral reserve board, but he was-Lake
Wilson Pilot.
Having done all those things it should ]
necessary for Kellogg to advertise them
S . right to expect that his friends will
at. And we rather reckon they will!

Even our usually conservative institutions, the
banks are guilty with the rest. II you wanted
to borrow five hundred dollar bill, three or four
years ago, the bank would not only let you have
it. but you had to be careful to that they did
not slip YOU another one-and take your note for
it.
It is this 'joy-ride" that we are paying for
just now.
The auto in which we are travelling is so far
ahead Of the ox-cart in which our income is be-
ing brought up, that we have now been waiting
| for nearly three years and the old oxen are not
in sight yet.
What connection has this with collections?
Well, just this:
The joy-ride has made us used to speed
that we are impatient at every delay. And the
present is a delay in the joy-ride!
The first thing with the pioneer was to pay
his debts, everything else made to wait. The
present generation provides not only for all its
needs, but its various and superficial wants as
well, and then if there is anything left it may be
Lapplied on the debts.
This is really what is the matter with collec-
tions.
People have lost so much Of the keen sense
that once obtained, regarding debts, that debts
bother but few any more.
Men do not walk miles to town these days, in
a blizzard, as we have known pioneer to do, in
order to pay note for store bill that was due
on that day.
This attitude towards debt is hitting the local
merchant the hardest. a/
He is the one that suffers in times like this.
His creditors all crowd him, the wholesale houses
all demand their pay in 80 to 60 days, and if it
were not for the help extended him by the banks
at the market price of money-he would so under.
The merchant, as a-rule, has no security from
those who owe him. His customers have come
and carried away what they wanted of his goods
and said, Charge it," and walked out. Many of
those who kick the most about high prices owe
the groceryman and the general dealer for food,
clothing, Irvine and implements and have mort
gagged all that they have-and hope to have-to
someone else.
What has become Of the who used to
consider his store bill an honest obligation?
= Unless he is re-discovered, thousands CT small
town merchants are going to the wall in the very
near future-and they will bring the business edi-
fee of the country down with them, but it will not
be alone their ruin that will be aecompl he'd, the
house will fall upon the Philistines as WELL

..WHAT HAS BECOME OF HIM?"

- UNNAR BJoRNsON editor Of the Mime
/ ota Mascot, has way Of getting at the
~ facts in a case and presenting them in such
. wav that his statements can not be successfully
contradicted
The following editorial is from a recent issue
If his paper and seems to have chit the nail on
tba head MANY of us have had thoughts along
This same line, but its one thing to think and
another thing to present these tnoughts as can
Gunnar Bjornson:
"How are collections"
We asked this of certain business man the
other day.
This was the answer we received:
collections, hell! There amt no such thing. .
Of course, there is little money these days
and people have not much to pay with.
And yet when one compares these times with
The times and conditions under which the pioneers
Of this community lived and worked in the early
DAYS (nany of these self-same men still with u.s.,
one wonders whether things are in as bad shape
as we really think they are.
It is not so much the matter Of our needs
that gives us worry and concern as the wants
that beset us.
We are no longer satisfied with the things
that our parents were satisfied with.
The automobile is only a generation removed
from the ox-cart and the income Of the present is
not as far ahead Of the pioneer days as is the
auto ahead Of the OK.
Many mans finances are still travelling IN
the old lumber wagon, behind the old ox-team
while he is riding miles and miles ahead in his
new automobile.
That is the principal trouble with the country
That is the one thing that is keeping US back, in
spite Of all our progress-fnancially speaking.
Our land imitation, the wild speed with which
we were making investments, were but part and
parcel of the general disregard by everybody Of
the 1speeed limit" signs
No one class is to blame for this condition
al classes are to blame.

If some of the country newspaper boys of
Minnesota would spend little less time praising
potential politicians and little more in seeing
that the type is clean, the ink we'll distributed and
their papers printed with some attention to typo
graphical details, they would be a greater credit
to their profession. Any one dish out political
(?) dope but it takes brains plus energy to be
real pressman. We are not one-so we are we'll

Books are, figuratively speaking, food to eat,
air to breathe, light for the eyes, path for the
feet and hand to clasp in the dark. Theodore
Roosevelt once told friend he could remember
the looks of the page in one Of Stanley's volumes
that kindled his faith and fixed his will to be the
man he finally became. 1t was in reading Spenser
that Keats first knew himself to be poet. But
even a poor stick of book may feed the divine
fire. Lincoln felt the heart of American history
beat in him as he read Weem's Washington.
The world laughs at Parson Weems now but 1t
does not laugh at Lineoln.-Princeton Union

Senator Kellogg stated in public letter is
sued last week, that he would stay in Washington
attending to his official duties instead of coming
home for the campaign. The Senator says he be-
ieves the people elected him to attend to his Sem
ate duties rather than his personal affairs and
therefore he will stay in Washington. One more
good reason why the Senator should stay in the
Senate for at least one more term.

We dislike to disgree with anything advocat-
ed by Jane Adams of Hull House whose word
has been light unto sociological feet for
many years. But we sincerely believe Miss Adams
is wrong in advocating an open door policy to-
ward all Of the emigrants of Europe until we
have taken care of some few of the millions who
are already in the United States 1t is not real
help to let these people come into the country
where profitable employment and proper housing
are out of the question as they are at present
Neither is it fair to those already here to allow
conditions to become more crowded and worse
than they now are. Temporary aid Europe had
from us and she may of necessity have much
more but she must eventually work out for her
self the problems Of taking care of her own peo-
PIES We are beginning to believe that there are
several European countries that are sadly lacking
in backbone. Sending their epoor relations" to
us isn't going to help them ultimately and it in
creases our problem thousandfold.

We have always wondered why the people
of Redwood Falls were SO prone to JOIN secret
societies of various kinds. colored gent,eEna
has solved the mystery by his simple statement
that "a secret sassiety am sumthin man has
to jine to fine out why he has jined.' That seems
to fit the case exactly, and the whole thing SIM
mers down to matter of human curiosity.

pretty bad fire you had here last
night" commented the recently arrived
guest.
"Ehyah,' replied the landlord Of the
Petunia tavern "The fire company had it
pretty nearly out, and then the mayor
came and took personal charge of the con-
fagration, and yelled orders till he got
the firemen so mixed up that they couldn't
do anything. And reckon if it hadn't
begun to rain directly the whole dodnol-
ested town would have been holocausted.
But s'pose it might have been worse
"How could it have been worse?"
"Why, the governor or congressman
might have come and took charge
instead of the mayor, and it might not
have rained."
Humph. Comment unnecessary.

NO CROSS, NO CROWN!

sometimes think, when life seems drear
And gloom and darkness gather here,
When Hopes bright star forsakes my skies
And sorrow Ger my pathway lies,
It would be sweet, it would be best
To fold my tired hand and rest
But then God sends an Angel down
Who sweetly says: "No Cross, No Crown
l heard the reckless river moan
With sad and melancholy tone,
saw it's waters flashing free
And dashing to the distant sea
I would have plunged beneath it's tide
And on it's friendly bosom died,
But then God sent the Angel down
Who whispered sweet: "No Cross, No
Crown" -..-
Then turned from the rivers shore
To bear my bitter task once more, .
With aching heart and burning head
To battle for my crust of bread
But Hunger came who knew me well,
And fainting by the way, fell
But still the Angel duttered down
And weeping said "No Cross, No Crown"
No Cross, No Crown! While standing there
The Cross too heavy seemed to bear
And the Crown could notesee
That it was ever meant for me!
The words I could not understand
Fen while pressed the Angels hand
But still he looked with pity down
And still he said: "No Cross, No Grown
T said "The world is dark and lone,
There is 40 band to hold my own:
I cannot bear the MONDAY heat
The sharp thorns pierce nsy bleeding feet"
Behold" he cried, where sacrificed
Shine the red, bleeding wounds OF Christi!
And fell his tears of mercy down
While still he said: mo Cross, No Crown"
Back to the world 1 turned again
To court lifes joys, endure its pain,
But all the sweetness that it gave
followed weeping to the grave
And from the cold and quiet sod
I raised my streaming eyes to God
And saw the Angel coming down
And in his hand a Golden Crown!
Then did / laugh at earthly loss,
And, kneeling, lifted up the Cross,
Though all that once made life so sweet
Lay meath the lilies at my feet,
A radiance from the realms OF light -
FLASHED for moment on my sight
A still small voice came futtering down
It is enough-receive the Crown!

We don't deliberately hunt through our ex-
changes for words of praise about the man whom
Redwood Falls has loaned to Washington for
time. But we can hardly pick up paper pub
lished in southern or southwestern Minnesota IN
which we do not find some commendatory truth
expressed And being of an unselfish nature we
love sharing these good things with all our neigh
bors. Here is one of the latest, clipped from
the current issue of the Sherburn Advance-Stan-
dard.
Congressman Clague shouldn't need to
worry about reelection. He has done
more effective work during his first term
at Washington than some other Mime
sofa honorables, serving in the same ca
pacity, have done during the past ten
and twenty years. Considering what
hasn't been done by number of them 1t
is hard to understand just why their con-
stituencies have returned them unless 1t
was from force of habit or lack of timber
