HOW LINCOLN COUNTY GOT
IT'S NAME AND
START

The desire of many states to
perpetuate the name of Abra-
ham Lincoln in some suitable
and lasting form resulted in
Minnesota, in the creation of
Lincoln county. Four attempts
were made, however, before the
present county bearing that
name became a permanent SUBJ
division of the state.
The Legislature in 1861 estab-
lished a Lincoln county from
territory now in northeastern
Renville and southern Meeker
counties. For some reason this
act failed to meet the approval
of the people in the counties
concerned and was not ratified.
Shortly after the close of the
Civil War an effort was made
to change the name of Rock
county to that of Lincoln. Again
the people affected refused to
accept the change.

Forest fires in northern Min
nesota during the past month
have been responsible for some
lurid newspaper stories on the
part of several Twin City and
Duluth dailies and the misinfor-
nation supplied, not to mention
some downright falsefications, is
resented by many interested in
the development of the North
country. In a measure the stuff
published has only tended to
widen the breech growing out of
the infliction of the tonnage tax
and other Legislative measures
which many of the misguided
credit to the jealousies of the oil
der sections of the state. Perhaps
the best editorial written con-
corning fire conditions in the
forest country is that published
in a recent edition of the Grand
Rapids Herald Review in which
under the caption Fires and the
Prss' several Twin City newspa-
per correspondents are severely
arraigned for their efforts at
newspaper forest fire word paint
ing. AS the Herald-Review
points out. most Of them were
without foundation or excuse
and the north country has suf-
fered in consequence. Without
mincing words it can be said
that fire is the settlers best
friend and while the Herald-Re-
view does not openly say so yet it
indicates that if the state would
take over the burning instead of
letting the settlers do it that a
vast territory would be improved
and thousands Of acres of good
land opened to profitable settle

cases the destruction has been
confined to brush infested
swamps. True, there is
always danger of loss of life and

have prevented it. The Herald

Viewed professionally. the
state campaign of 1922 is a dis
appointment. From the stand
point Of the average noter, how
ever, 1922 in a political way has
much to commend. The one
rales at apparent, and what some
Of his crowd regards as criminal
inactivity, while the other is
tickled to death over the pros
pect Of being permitted to go to
the polls without having to wade
knee deep through the usual
prediction slush. Financially
speaking this is the cheapest
campaign in a decade and no par
ticular party or political faction
has a monopoly on the economy
stunts being practiced. Two and
four years ago Boss Townley and
his crowd were lavish with the
cash and in order to keep pace
the Democratic and Republican
forces went the legal limit in
campaign expenditures, but such
will not be the case this year.
AS far as this campaign is con-
cerned Minnesota voters will be
permitted to persue their own
sweet will, and according to c. r.
Adams, chairman of the Republi-
can state central committee, this
feature Of non-interference will
continue pretty much through to
November. Of course there will
be a campaign and Mr.. Adams
will leave no stone unturned in
an effort to demonstrate the
superiority Of the Republican
state ticket over the offerings of
the Socialistic and other radical
forces, but it will be along con-
sentative lines. To put it blunt
ly, the Republican state organi-
zation is not listed among the af-
fluent this year and as a matter
of necessity Chairman Adams has
decided upon a short and snappy
campaign with a concentration of
effort in those districts best cal
culated to put the Republican
ticket over. AS he explains it,
anything else would be crimi-
nal waste of money and labor.
On four previous occasions and
in the face of thoroughly organ
lied opposition Chairman Adams
piloted the Republican forces to
victory and in each the short and
snappy campaign idea was the
big card and there is nothing to
show that he will not repeat in
November. That thousands of
voters, sick and tired Of the slush
and long drawn out political yap-
ings of the past. will applaud
Chairman Adams stand, even if
it is one of necessity. goes with
out saying. while it is equally
certain that certain others sore
at their inability to get a hitch
on the campaign yellow boys will
feel hurt. More power to Chair
man Adams. He will get there.

THE TREATY

Senate debates mark the concluding chapters in one
of the most momentous incidents in the history Of the
country. Preliminary votes indicate that all of the
eight treaties which emanated from the ornaments
but the debates have developed a determined opposi-
ticn to some of them.
In order that a better general understanding can be
had of the scope Of the treaties and their influence on
the future of the United States and the world, q brief
outline of each undertaking is given herewith:
i. A treaty between the United States, the British
Empire, France, Italy and Japan, limiting naval arma-
merts. The future capital ship tonnage of those coun-
tries shall be: United States 525 900; British Empire,
525, 900; Japan, ais 900; France, ITS, 900; and Italy,
built. Aircraft carrier tonnage: United States, 1885,
900; British Empire, 1876, 900; Japan, $1,000; France,
GO, 900; and Italy, &C, 1000. No aircraft carrier exceed
ing $1,000 tons shall be built. The treaty specifies
the ships to be strapped by each power, the method Of
s~crapping, and the size and number of guns of those
retained. The treaty is to remain in force until De
cember 81, 1886, and shall continue in force unless
one of the parties gives two years notice of its term
ination.
2. A treaty between the United States, the British
Empire, France, Italy and Japan limiting the use of
submarines and poison gas in war.
8. A treaty between the United States, the British
Empire, France and Japan relating to their insular
possessions in the Pacific. This is the so-called "Four
Power Pact" It provides that il a controversy arises
between any of the parties, the others shall be called
in for a joint conference. II the Pacific rights of
either are threatened by any other power the four
countries shall consider what joint action they may
take to meet the emergency. The treaty is to remain
in force for ten years.
4. A declaration accompanying the four power
treaty to the effect that it shall include the inundated
islands in the Pacific, but shall not be deemed an as
sent on the part of the United States to those man.
dates; also excluding domestic questions from the eff
feet of the treaty.

they did not seem alarmed and had
no fear but hat the good ship Fort

In a short time I observed that
