Not the Secretary of State.

Charles E. Hughes, present secre-
tary of state, former governor Of
New York state, former justice Of tie
United States Supreme court, and also
once the Republican nominee for presi-
dent, defeated by Woodrow Wilson,
is getting the blame these days y
some of our careless newspaper writers
for letter defending the seating OF
Newberry, which letter was written by
another man, also by the name Of
Hughes, pretty much unknown to Il G
people Of the country altho he rattles
around in the position Of secretary q

This latter Hughes, is also, therefor 6
referred to in news dispatches IS
Secretary Hughes and some OF or
less carefully edited newspapers halls
the statement as coming frcm tt e
secretary Of state, which is absolutely
false.
The Mankato Free Press and TIE
Minnesota Daily Star are amongst the
papers making the mistake. One
doesn't expect a paper edited by a
sports writer to know much about poll
tical personages, but that one who has
gotten his early education in viewing
life from a side-door pullman and who
is now one Of the most rip-roaring ad-
vocates Of a hundred per cent foolish
ness in this section should display his
ignorance in this fashion is almost too
sad for words.

A Political Surprise.

After advertising the fact in at
least one newspaper Of nearly 1000 cir
culation and otherwise drumming up
the affair in big shape in Pope and
Douglas counties, there were about
80 people present to surprise Rev.
O. ]. .Kvale Of Benson on recent
Sunday afternoon. The surprise must
have consisted in the fact that the
crowd was so small.
lst This Rev; Kvale is now going to
run for congress in the sSeventhseas
an Independent candidate, getting
on the ballot by petition. It will be
remembered by those who watch things
political that Rev. Kvale refused to
file on the farmer-labcr ticket before
the primaries, considering himself toe
good to be Of the same political color
as Magnus Johnson, Mre. Susie Stage
berg, w. w. Royster, and the other
splendid folks on tie farmer-labol
ticket. Now that he feels the props
slipping from under him, we notice
that he is calling himself the farmer
labor candidate for congress in order tc
Icatch the farmer-labor vote.

year because Of the unpo opularity d

bureau is not looking at this thing from
the standpoint of the farmer but from
the standpoint Of the food gambler.
And yet it marriages to get great many
farmers to fall for its palaver and support
an organization which in reality is tie
farmers most dangerous enemy.
For Terminal Co-operatives.
Mr.. Gray followed his advice to pro-
duce 'tall the world wants with a splen-
did statement of truth, but in such an
impractical way that it doesn't do the
farmers any good. He advocated the
commodity marketing program of the
national farm bureau organization, al
though no information is given IS to
what that program is, but he said that
the farmers problem will never be solved
as long as he is content to confine CO.
operative marketing to local points,
eve must become factors in the terminal
markets. he said. This is the absolute
truth. But how is the farmer to become
factor in the terminal markets? By
organizing and financing vast terminal
elevators. ETC.? Has the farmer the
capital to do such a thing! When he
raises wheat and other grains at a
loss and just makes a bare living from
his dairy and hogs, can he be expected
to furnish the enormous capital necessary
to 60 into terminal marketing? It has
been tried. The Equity Cooperative
Exchange in St. Paul comes the nearest
to success along such lines. Magnus
johnson is vice president Of this organi-
zation. 1t is now worth a couple CT
million dollars. But the Equity Ex-
change has reached it's present successful
condition through the sacrifice Of time,
energy and money by such splendid men
as Geo. Lotus, j. M. Anderson, Magnus
Johnson and others like them. And it is
too much of sacrifice for few men.
Most farmers are not willing to make
such sacrifice and it is too much to
expect Of anybody. And the Equity
Cooperative Exchange has had to fight
the bitter opposition Of the Minneapolis
Chamber of Commerce from first to last,
and not the least of its obstacles has been
the secret and even open opposition OF
the Minnesota Farm Bureau, association.
Townley proposed q system ct state
owned terminals in North Dakota, but
the farm bureau, which now realizes that
it must admit that farmers must be
come factors in the terminal markets
was organized for the very purpose OF
heading off the Nonpartisan league.
The election Of Magnus Johnson to the
governors chair and majority in the
legislature who would cooperate with
him would go a long way towards solving
the terminal market problem for the
farmer although it will never Re COM
pletely solved before we get a national
administration at Washington Of the
Msgnus Johnson and Bob La Toilette
type.

SCIENCE AND TAXES.

Farming is beset by blights, pests
and droughts, but none Of these equal
the depredations Of the tax collector.
Science has discovered remedies for
the pests and blights, and the drought
does not come every season; but the
tax collector never misses year.
Science has discovered a remedy
for the tax blight too, but the politi-
clan will not apply it till the farmer

port Of the common people at all.
And if he is elected, he will probably

 Then another idea came to me.

 He didn't say anything, not any thing, for such long time l thought he hadn't heard me. Then. with queer quick drawing in of his breath. he said:

 Then told him my idea. Al first he said no, and il couldn't be. and he was very sure she wouldn't see him, even If he called. But said she would if he would do exactly as l said And told him my plan. And after time and quite lot of talk. he said he would agree to IL.
 And this morning we did 1t.
 At exactly ten o'clock he came up the steps of the house here. but he didn't ring the bell. 1 had told him not to do that. and I was on the watch for him. I knew that at ten o'clock Grandfather would be gone. Aunt Hat tie probably downtown shopping. and Lester out with his governess. wasn't

 Father turned square around and faced me.
 Mary, what are you talking aboutT' he asked then. And I'd have been scared of his voice if 1t hadn't been for the great light that was shining in his eyes.
 But looked into his eyes, and wasn't scared; and told him every thing. -.ery single thing-all about how N Ter had cried over the little blue dress that day in the trunk room and how she had shown the tarnished lace and said that she had furnished the happiness of him and of herself and of me; and that 1t was all her fault; that she was thoughtless and willful and exacting and spoiled child and, ofi, If she could only try it over again how differently sbe would do!

And I just knew she wouldn't mind if she could see the look in Fathers eyes as I talked.
 He didn't interrupt me-not long Interruptions. He did speak out a quick little word now and then, at some of the parts; and once l know l saw him wipe a tear from his eyes. After that he put up his hand and sat with his eyes covered all the rest of the time l was talking. And he didn't take 1t down till said:

 "She was, my dear. She was very lovely. But It wasn't just that-it was a Joyous something that I could not describe. It was as If she were a bird poised for flight know it now for what it was-the very incarnation of the spirit of youth. And she was young. Why. Mary, she was not so many years older than you yourself, now. You aren't sixteen yet. And your mother-I suspect she was too young. If she hadn't been qnite so young"
 He stopped, and stared again straight ahead at the dancers-with- out seeing one of them, knew. Then he drew a great deep sigh that seemed to come from the very bottom of his boots.
 But It was my fault, my fault, every bit of it." he muttered still star ing straight ahead "If l hadn't been so thoughtlesS- As if l could i'm prison that bright spirit of youth in a great dull cage of conventionality, and not expect 1t to bruise its wings by futterlng against the bars l"
 And right there and then il came C me that Mother said 1t was her fault too: and that If only she could live II over again, shed do differently. And here was Father saying the same thing.

That's what l thought, anyway. And I determined right then and there to give them the chance to try again, if speaking would do it.
 I looked up at Father. He was still talking half under his breath, his eyes looking straight ahead. He had for gotten all about me. That was plain to be seen. If I'd been cup of coffee without any coffee in 1t, he'd have been stirring me. hhoW he "ouio' He was like that
