VOTING FOR AN ABSURDITY

1.-THE Literary Digest is making Journalistic
hit by taking a monster poll of the nation
4 to whether not strict enforcement of
the Volstead act is preferred, or modification to
permit of beer and light wines, or the complete
repeal Of the 18TH amendment. The poll has now
been running for several weeks, and has sold hun
dreds of thousands of copies of the magazine. 1t
shows that the "bone-drys" very much outnumber
the "wets", but that the "moists"-in favor of
beer and wine-have the edge on the count from
week to week. Much editorial attention is being
given to the poll all of which is fine for the pub
fishers of the Literary Digest, but it did not take
the magazine poll to tell us that forty per cent
of the voters will vote for any absurdity especial
ly if the proposition is speciously phrased and
adorned with an aluring catchword. Remember
"16 to L. and che kept out of the war" The
sale of beer and wines for beverage purposes will
never be permitted under the 18th. amendment
without making farce of that amendment, and
for that reason it will never be permitted 1t
might happen that the vets would secure suff-
Gent majority in congress to attempt the absurd
ity but in the end the, enforcement law would be
still further frightened when the evils of the old
saloon days reappeared. The better plan is to
return to congress such outstanding dry leaders as
Congressman Volstead, and thus prevent the boot
less attempt to make farce of the 18th. amend
ment.-Morris Tribune. "

A MAN WHO LOVED BEAUTY

rTHOSE who have visited Lake City or even
| passed by it on the train during the summer
= months were impressed with the beauty that
welcomes them in parks and streets, and the
bright array Of flowers and foliage. 1t is one of
the few stations from Chicago to st. Paul that
stands out distinctly in ones remembrances be-
cause of it's unusual attraction.
Years ago Lake City had shabby station,
and unattractive grounds, and there was nothing
that made the traveller recall it with any degree
Of pleasure.
One man changed all this because he a
lover Of beauty, and had the skill and force to
make of drab-looking town bower of beauty.
That man was ], M Underwood, who followed his
genius in business and was the head of sue
cessful nursey company When mayor of his
town he induced the railroad company to give it
attractive station and to turn over to improve
ment acre two of land, which he cared for
at his own expense summer by summer. Not
only did he provide flowers and foliage for this
station park but for the other parks of that city,
which was his freewil offering to his fellow citi
zens. He has been the capable president of the
Minnesota Horticultural society, and his influence
for making Minnesota the state beautiful has
reached every section. He was an enthusiastic
believer in the possibilities Of the Northwest in
fruit and no one can tell how great has been his
help in this direction.
This man, whose life was so full of useful
beauty, passed away last week, mourned by many
thousands. Few have served their state as well,
and less have added greatly to the joy of their
fellows.
He was a resident of small town, but he
had the greatness of spirit that blessed humanity,
the public spirit that enriched, and he was one
whose faith was that
Beauty is Natures con and must not be hoard
ed,
But must be current, and the good thereof
Consists in mutual and partaken biss.'-St. Cloud

ROAD MANNERS

Too many people ashamed to acknow"
ledge by word or act that they ignorant
of the manners of good society. These are
the ones who laugh at the uncouth ways of I'M
cultivated people, and yet these same finished
products, who know all the nicetes Of social inter-
course, seem to forget all their manners and cu-
tured upbringing when they get behind the wheel
Of an automobile.
When they come to street corner and see
people waiting to pass, they insist on going ahead
full speed and compel the pedestrian to wait.
The man who is scrupulous about going through
a door last at reception may arrogantly insist
upon his right of way on the streets, and frequ-
emily claims it when it does not belong to him.
If these chaps could see themselves as others
see them and realize that their conduct makes
them look more boorish than the rube who eats

The Fruits of Good Faith
New York Herald

What a colossal blunder it would
have been for everybody as well as a
gross wrong to the men on the jobs
if the railroad executives had accept
ed the strike settlement plan with it's
condition that the strikers go back to
"their former positions with their SEN
iority and other rights unimpaired,, is
singularly emphasized by the records
of new men recruited within "a hours
after the unqualified rejection of that
specific proposal. As soon as it was
made public that the rail executives
had refused definitely and finally to
violate their solemn pledges to the
men on the jobs and would not, at the
instance of anybody, throw out these
men for the strikers, more new ap-
plicants sought employment in a sin
gle day than had appeared in the whole
week or 10 days during which the set
Element proposal, with it's seniority
provision, had been urged upon the
railroads. These are the fruits of
good faith.
Naturally men employed in other
fields would not leave their situations
there and go to the railroads seeking
new jobs il there were a chance that
they would be cast adrift in few days
or hours with their old as well as
their new jobs gone. Naturally, too,

HOW THEY VOTED

C. A. Lndbergh, manager of the Nonpartisan
campaign, is charged by Congressman Stevenson
with making an attack upon Senator Kellogg and
Stevenson in public speech for voting for the
Federal Reserve bank law. Stevenson explains
that this law was passed on December %, 1913;
that Kellogg was not then a member of the SEN
ate; that Stevenson voted against it and that
Lindbergh who was in congress, voted for it on
its passage in the house, and as his wobbly rule,
voted against it in conference. This is sample
of the charges made by the Nonpartisan leaders.

A New York magistrate said from the bench
the other day that sit is impossible for one wo-
man to care for four children, According to
that all our foremothers must have been super
women-and when we think of what they did for
humanity in general and their own families in
particular, it seems very probable that they were
just that. But if this magistrates notion gets
itself taken up by the coming generation and
they actually believe it, the future of the race

THE AMERICAN RED
CROSS LEAVES FRANCE
(From the Paris LIE Matin)

(From the Paris LIE Mating
~ ILENTLY, modestly, almost unnoticed, a banl
of good friends are leaving France today
~ Yet these good friends have done a great ane
splendid work, and have done it without self-ad
vertisement They are called the American Red
Cross.
They landed in France morning in June
1917. They were just eighteen in ALL And, as
those who know them might expect, even before
they turned their attention to the American soldi
ers who were landing at the same time, they
turned to the French refugees, French wounded,
and French orphans
Others followed them. In 1918 the eighteen
had grown to $500. After the armistice, they
continued their work of helping, nursing, pro-
tecting, succoring.
Do you want figures? They came to the aid
OF 100000 of refugees. In their hospitals
and dispensaries 205,OO0 of our children were re-
celved; $3.50 French families were aided by
them; they endowed BAT anti-tuberculous institu-
tions.
They have expended in France $14OOOO OOO
which means, at the average exchange of these
hve years, about 1 500, 100000 of francs.
The reader may calculate for himself what
this means in human lives saved. He NAV also
imagine what fund of devotion, ingenuity, strug-
gle and sacrifice it represents.
Everything must end, even what is noble and
beautiful. The American Red Cross leaves
France today. The last of it's nurses is sailing
for home. Its emblem disappears from among
US. But one thing remains; the memory of what
1t has accomplished This memory will remain
forever craven in French hearts, Col, Ernest P
Blcknell, last Red Cross commissioner for France,
may assure his compatriots of this. He NAV tell
them that if the Red Cross, in it's magnificent
work, has not forgotten France, France, in it's
eternal gratitude, will not forget the American
Red Cross.

In order to be a real fair any fair must have

In order to be a real fair any fair must have
a lot of good exhibits. Without exhibits and
with only the entertainment features it gets away
from the ideals of fair and becomes more Or
less a carnival, which may be entertaining but
not educational. The Redwood County Fair
Board has always made effort to provide a
happy proportion of both entertainment and edu-
catonal features but it must have the help of the
people of the County in providing the exhibits if
this proportion is to be maintained. So, all who
interested in the of the not-very- dist
ant fair, please raise their right hands and
solemnly swear to bring in something that will be
of interest to others. There to be, we are in
formed, three Farmers Clubs exhibts-we can
think Of absolutely no feature which is quite so
interesting one of these put-it- altogether
neighborhood displays We wish there were to
be thirty of them instead of three.

Mrs. Anna D. Olesen says something has
been read into her recent utterances on the sub
ject of Senator Knute, Nelson that she did not
say, and others who heard her talk to the Sons
of Norway at Cloquet some time ago corroborate
this statement. 1t is denied that Mrs. Olesen
said anything praising Senator Nelson's record or
his services in the senate. Her complimentary
reference to the senator, Mrs Olesen explains,
was in the course of remarks about the sturdy
character of the Norwegian people, pointing to
Senator Nelson's hale old age as an example of
their vigor and longevity Cheney in

THE BALLOT HOUSEHOLD UTENsII.

GO HE looketh we'll to the ways Of her house
hold" is as true of women today as it was
in Solomons day. The changes Of time
vary our methods but not our motives
A generation ago the mother could remain
at home and know that the water was sani+.rv
the milk was pure, the eggs fresh, the meat
wholesome, the bread clean, and her canned foods
unadulterated ...
She taught her children at her knee thew
played about the door, and, when they were old
enough to work, she controlled the conditions of
their labor.
NOW industry has become specialized One
by one, these activities have left the home and
gone out into the world.
Water comes through city pipes; milk is left
IN bottle at the door; bread is baked by those
VINO 90 not expect to eat it; food comes in boxes
ana IN cans from the four corners of the earth
The children follow the work into the factories
and are directed-not by mothers, but by over
seers.
How, in this day, can the good wife "look
well to the ways of her household" except by US
ing the ballot?
To assure justice, economy, safety, quality
and cleanliness, thousand and one regulations
are laid about these products and activities Re-
gulations are made by the legislative bodies and
enforced by the executive officers who are elect
ed by and responsible to the people.
Only by being voter, by helping to choose
those who shall rule, can the housewife of today
look well to the ways of her household" The
ballot has become our most valuable household
utensil
We would consider her shiftless housewife
and careless mother who would refuse or neglect
to use the broom or the scrub-brush when they
were needed. She is exactly as shiftless and
careless housewife and mother who refuses or
neglects to use the balot-the defective tool of
today.
Government the environment Of
both home and business may make or break us.
It is a serious matter which party we choose. It
makes big difference by which policies we are
controlled
That housewife who wants her home to pro-
