Clague True
To His Trust

Frank Clague is one of the most de-
lightful characters we ever met. He
is what is popularity known as "good
fellow" But he knew that the
Fordney- McCumber bill was on east
ern manufacturers measure, misfit
for western interests. Could he have
cast his vote by mail he would have
recorded an amphatic no against it,
but he hadn't the nerve to face the
party bosses and vote his sentiments
We don't ask Mr.. Clague to kow-
tow to The Sentinel but we do in
sist that he be true to his trust or
step down and out.
In all human probability Mr..
Clague is serving his last term in
congress. 80 -. 49,.
The second district is for lower
tariff, not a higher tariff. -Fairmont
Sentinel.
Frank Clague has been true to his
trust, and he will continue as a
member of congress--either in the
house or senate. That tariff bill is
all right, and if The Fairmont Sent
incl will study the act and not jump
at conclusions, it must then freely
admit that Congressman Clague was
ripht when he voted for its adoption.
The bill is not an eastern meas
ure-no more so than it is a west
ern measure. This is no time to
array one section against the other.
To do so is as unpatriotic as it is
foolish. This is one country. The
interests of one section are depend
ant on the other-like the interests
of the city are linked with those of
the rural districts.
No tariff bill could be drawn that
would satisfy everybody-but the
present law comes nearer doing so
than any that has passed through
the congressional mill in recent
years. The Fordney- McCumber bill
will prove its worth. Mark the pre-
diction. The fact that England does
not like the law makes us feel kindly
toward -Mankato Free Press.

Do your alfalfa seed shopping early
is the advice of University men who
have prepared a list of growers who
have limited quantities of superior

somewhat higher later on, hence the
desirability of laying in a stock when

The latest number of Sparks, the
Northwest Motor Digest, carries an
article which says that wagons and
buggies, as well as trucks and auto
mobiles, must carry lights when on
highways after dark, upon passage
of another law proposed for common
public welfare. Commissioner Bah
cock said regulation of that kind is
favored unanimously by many farmers
with whom he had discussed it. The
farmers believe that repeal of this
law few years ago was mistake,
and for that reason they are expected
to give full support to its re-enact-
ment. Serious accidents and some
tragedies have occurred in Mower
county the past summer and fall as
the result of horse drawn vehicles be-
ing on the highways without lights.
