Tariff Rates.

It is significant that mot any of the
81 applications to the tariff commits
sion for changes in tariff rates deal
with the commodities that held special
attention in the making of the sched-
ules. There have been no applications
for changes in the wool or sugar or
other of the more important schedules
that were condemned by a partisan
press as threatening injury to the pub
lie. If the new tariff were working
that way, the public would have been
heard from.
The fact that interests and ele-
ments affected by the tariff are
promptly turning to the elasticity pro-
vision of the Fordney-M cC umber
tariff act for relief proves that the
schedules set down are not to be re-
garded as fixed They are subject, on
investigation, toichanges that will cor
respond with changed conditions or
with new evidence relative to existing
conditions. Therefore not even parti-
sanship can properly claim that the
rates in effect threaten the nation with

evening, any time that suits you. I'll
guarantee that you cannot tell pic
ture made in the evening from one
taken on the finest sunshiny day. If
you cannot come during the week come
on Sunday. All you need to do is to
call me up and let me know you are
coming, and I'll be ready for you. I'll
do anything to accommodate you, but
l want you to come early.
If you want the best work done
on your photos, it's essential that you
come in early enough to give me a
chance to do my best. If I am going
to rush through a hundred dozen pic
lures in week or two, I cannot posi-
bly, give the work the attention it
should have. Now you know that you
want the pictures made, you have
made up your mind that there is no
other way to solve the gift problem
so easily and economically. You want
your portraits in time for Christmas,
and you want good pictures, we'll

and give me chance to do justice to
your work. Yours truly,

Forgets Dignity Of Program.

vSSso OiSuty OF Program.
At a recent Nature Study club meet
ing at which. DR.. G. H. Eigenmann
was guest he told the following
story:
Pat~.and Mike were section en-
ployees. Mike was made superintend-
ent. Pat went into his Office one day
and said: "Hello, Mike, give me q
railroad pass"
Mike, feeling the Importance of his
promotion over his old friend, said /:
That's no way for you to do. About
ten o'clock tomorrow morning you
come to the door, knock, take off your
hat, scrape your feet and say: Good
morning, Mr.. Murphy I'll say Good
morning, Pat, and what can I do for
your Then you state your business in
a dignified manner, and I'll take it
under advisement."
The" next morning Pat came,
knocked at the door, and followed d.
rections explicitly. When he said "Good
morning, Mr.. Murphy" Mike said:
"Now, that's more like It. What can
l do for you, Pat?"
"You can go to the devil. I got
pass over the B. & o." Pat responded.

passes any more" the English woman

While the results of the election
were not altogether satisfactory
there are many things for which we
can be thankful. We were particu-
larly pleased to see the voters of this
county re-elect Walter Peliter by a
substantial majority. We are thank
full that every republican candidates:to
state office was reelected even if
only two of them, Rines and Holm,
carried this county. The worst disap-
pointment for the republicans, in this
community at least, was the defeat of
Frank B. Kellogg. Many of us would
rather have lost any other man on
thte whole ticket. In politics, how
ever, as in everything else, we must
learn that the bitter and sweet come
together.

A New Senator From Minnesota

A New Senator From Minnesota.
After March 4, 1923, Senator Knute
Nelson will be joined in the senate of
the United States by new colleague.
He is DR.. Henrik Shipstead, a dentist
Of Minneapolis, formerly Of Glenwood.
He will be stranger to many, es-
pecially to those who voted against
him-and those who stayed home and
didn't vote and now are sorry. He
ought to be introduced, for whatever
his party label or his doctrines, he will
be a United States senator from Min
nesota for six years.
He was born in Minnesota-in Kan
diyohi county-in 1881, and he is,
therefore, forty-one years old. He
was graduated from the Northwestern
university in 1902, and has practiced
dentistry in Glenwood and Minneap-
oils when he hasn't been campaigning.
He wears no horns, no cloven hoof, no
spiked tail. His political doctrines
are heterodoxy and anathema to re-
publican and even democratic ortho-
doxy. He learned at the feet of Town.
ley, and has been the candidate of
Townley's ideas on several occasions
unsuccessfully until this time.
He is not socialist. The ideas he
stands for are not socialism, really,
but what experts in phraseology of
economic controversy call estate capt.
talism." But naturally such ideas
find more favor with socialists than
with non-socialists. Probably he is
not so radical as La Toilette or Brook
hart, whom he will work with in the
senate, though they carry the republi-

Mary Anderson Lauds Booth.

A portrait Of Edwin Booth, by many
considered Americas greatest tragedi-
an, was presented lately to the Me-
mortal Art gallery in the Shakespeare
memorial at Standardization by an
American friend of the drama and his
colleagues.
The most striking feature of the
ceremony was the voice of Nine. de
Navarro, once the idol of American
dramatic audiences as Mary Anderson,
says the New York Sun. Her personal
"reminiscences Of Edwin Booth reached
their climax in her recitation Of an
apostrophe in verse to the great actor.
A voice ffon out the past, indeed,
and its magical effect upon the audi
ence gathered at Stratford is ample
testimony to the truth that the great
backgrounds in art and human life are
not blotted out by the intense preoc-
cupation in things Of the present
which seem to fill the picture.

After perusing the financial state
ment and noting the extremely modest
compensation allowed certain county
officers, we cannot refrain from won
dering how any men can be found who
would even consent to fill some of the
positions. It would seem that man
who will accept the office of county
commissioner and all the grief that
goes with it must be prompted by a
most altruistic spirit. He surely is
blessed with a desire to render. un-
selfish service to his district and
county.
