The Sherburne Advance-Standard is demo-
cratic paper, but is inclined to think that Mrs
Olesen's campaign is something like the old Bryan
campaigns, long in audiences and enthusiasm but
short on votes. It says:
Despite all the hullabaloo that is made over
Anna Dickie Olesen, woman candidate for senator
we are little afraid that she is going to be third
in the race That Frank Kellogg will be re-elect-
ed is certainty. The solidarity of the republican
political machine in Minnesota assures that
Then there is Henrik Shipstead. Don't forget
Henrik. If you think Henrik isn't going to cut
any ice in this campaign you've got the dope all
wrong. Henrik represents the Nonpartisan
league following in the state. He is bound to
get practically the solid labor vote in the twin cti
es-and that is no small item. A lot of people
are turning out to hear Mrs. Olesen, but we are
beginning to think it is largely matter of curios-
ity."

in America can earn more or enjoy
more comforts. But the teacher who
fits our boys and girls for place
in the world, and the minister who
labors to fix up a place in better
world are forced to exist on next to
nothing while fabulous salaries go
where they do the least good.
The salary system in this country
lis going to prove mighty serious
proposition in this country some of
these days if we look to it little
closer. And the consequences are
going to be terrible to contemplate

If you are resident of Redwood County and
don't know the people whose names head the
first column of this page this week, get to work
and learn who and what they are. AS a good
American citizen it is your first duty Novenl-
Der to cast one vote for each of the offices on
the ballot. How can you vote wisely unless you
give the matter little consideration before hand
Any required information may be gotten from the
candidates themselves in case there is no one else
to give it. They will be glad to discuss both
themselves and their opponents-unless they are
quite different from ordinary politicians.

Cincinnati Judge imposed fine of five
dollars for the stealing of morning paper. In
imposing the fine he made the statement that
when mans morning paper is gone his whole
day is spoiled". According to that when a mans
weekly paper is gone his whole week is spoiled.

Preus and Kellogg were the big attraction at
Fairmont Saturday night. The house was so
crowded that when Frank Day arrived the only
place left for him to sit was on the platform,
and because the Governor and Junior Senator
want to reform that hardened old Democratic
sinner if possible, they felt it was necessary for
him to hear their gospel and so on the platform
he sat!

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER rs, 1922.
NO TEARS FOR ME-

I want no sad lamenting tears
When I set out to sea,
No stifled cries or heaving signs
To speed me to eternity.
No crepe or dreary garments worn
To make the going sad,
But have them white, or something bright,
Discard old pagans fad.
I want no dirges sung for me
When am going away,
But something grand, played by the band,
To make it one glad day.
And let no words be said for me
That he is dead and gone, .-....
But only say he left today,
He's journeyed out and on.
And if some parting tears are shed
Just make them all of joy,
Have no regret, be glad we met,
And say, Good Ship, Alloy!

Proctor & Gamble Shows
80. .77go ON Common
Net Earnings FOR the Year
Are S7,34O,O0O After
All CHARGES

On gross business of S105 1855, 900
in the fiscal year ended June 80 the
Proctor g. Gamble Company showed net
earnings of $7,840000 after depreciation
and all charges. This was equivalent to
30.T7 per cent on the common stock
after payment of regular dividends of
both classes Of preferred. President
Proctor stated the volume of soap bus
mess showed a satisfactory increase
over the previous year, whereas oil
business, on account of the general
lowering of prices Of all fats, taken
in conjunction with short cotton crop,
showed decrease.
No direct comparison OF these earn
ings with those of the previous year
is possible, for the reason that the
report for tho fiscal year ended June
80, 1921, made no mention of taxes and
other charges. The operating profit for
that year was $3,729,000, and reduc-
tion Of about S20,000,O00 in profit and
loss surplus indicated substantial
write-off for inventory losses, leaving
surplus of $20,125,000. The balance
sheet for the 1922 fiscal year showed
surplus or undivided profits Of $21, ,645,-
900. During the year the Z per cent
serial notes were reduced from $10,-
100000 to S5,000,0o0, but bank loans
carried under current liabilities, were
shown as $2,000,0o0. AT the end Of the
previous year the company had no bank
loans. The remaining S5,000,00o serial
notes have been called for redemption

Loadings of Freight Cars
Show Decrease of 1882
Coal Movement Increases i'm
the Week Ended Aug. S;
Surplus Equipment Less

Loading Of revenue freight totaled
851 ,351 cars during the week ended
August 5, reduction of 1882 cars, COM
pared with the week preceding, accord
ing to reports received by the car serv-
ice division of the American Railway
Association. Compared with the cor
responding week last year the loadings
showed an increase Of 65,173 cars.
For the week ended August s in
creases we're reported in loadings of
coal and ore, while losses we're shown
in merchandise and miscellaneous
freight, grain and grain products, live
stock, coke and forest products.
Compared by districts increases were
reported in the Pocahontas and Cen
trail Western districts. In the Poca-
hontns the increase over the preceding
week amounted to 2,226 cars, due almost
entirely to an increase in coal ship
ments. The Eastern, Allegheny, South
ern, Northwestern and Southwestern
districts reported reductions. Except
for the Southwestern, however, all dis
tricts showed increases over the CORE
spending week last year.
Reports filed with the association
also showed that on July 81 there were
174,927 surplus freight cars on railroad
lines, or a decrease of 28,395 since
July %. Surplus coal cars totaled
i31, ,267 o decrease of 10,163 cars with
in the period, while there was reduc-
tion Of 1878 in the number of surplus
box cars, bringing the total for that
class down to 21,367 cars.
Surplus coke cars amounted to 1888,
an increase in slightly more than a

duction of 1874 in the number of sur
plus stock cars, which totaled 1902.

gestion; May Name Over
head of Distributors

Formation of an arbitration court TO
settle commercial disputes between re-
tailers and manufacturers and to draft
general policies affecting both pro-
ducers and distributors in the general
lines handled by department stores Is
progressing Suggestion that such a
body be established was made last
week by Jesse /. Strauss, of r.. H..
Macy & Co., and president Of the Ma
tional Retail Dry Goods Association,
at the opening of the association sum
mer convention held in connection with
the First National Merchandise Fair,
which the association is staging in
Grand Central Palace.
A number Of representative retailers
and manufacturers have discussed the
plan in conference, with the result
that committee shortly will be ap-
pointed and a general meeting called,
at which trade associations in the
are expected to confer with the re-
tailers. 1t is limited that some domi-
mating figure in the general mercantile
field will be called upon to head tho
new organization in position similar
to that occupied by Judge Lands in
the baseball field and Will Hays in
the motion picture industry.
Previous attempts to create COM
mercial tribunals have been made, but
few of them met with any degree of
success. Most of them have been con-
cerned with only one industry and
therefore had limited scope.
Cancellations of contracts, returns
Of merchandise and other evils that
are current in the textile, clothing and
allied fields long have been regarded
as factors making for high cost Of
distribution. It is felt by those back
of the new plan that the elimination
of these evils. together with code
of practice to be rigidly followed, will
reduce distributive costs, stabilize
markets to the end that losses will
be minimized and thus bring down the
cost of merchandise to ultimate con-

whatever the mining assumptions

the steel industry is counting on little
