FLAHAVEN DOES NOT
KEEP PROMISE

The Herald admits that 1t is grew
sously disappointed in Representative
Thomas Flahaven of this legislative
district when he voted with the MI
nority refusing to allow the Babcock
highway bond bill to be made Spec
ial Order in the House.
A spirit of absolute unfairness OF
the House minority was proven by
their stand to prevent the measure
from being discussed before the legls-
aature. Under the rules of the House
it takes a two thirds vote to place any
measure on Special Orders. This IS
the first time for many years, at least,
that a legislative body of Minnesota
has refused to allow an important
measure to go on Special orders
where it could be passed or defeated
upon its meits.
We had believed that when Flahav-
en- made an open and frank statement
on a proposition affecting the entire
county, after having heard the pro-
position thoroughly discussed, that he
could be depended upon to stand back
of the promise. He has been allowed
to mis-represent this legislative dis
trict for three terms, very largely be-
cause the people of this district did
not make any effort to send man OF
real ability to represent them IN the
Lower House of the Minnesota law
making body. Flahaven was elected
not because he was fit for the place
but because he was considered the
lesser evil. For this misrepresenta-
ton the citizens have themselves to
blame.
Shortly after the last election
Flahaven stated to the Herald editor
that while he was opposed to
the constitutional amendment carry
ing out the Babcock plan when it
came before the Legislature at the
1919 session, he was now in favor of
Strengthening the measure and that
he would be glad to vote for what
was the best interest of Sank Centre
and his district, and in this vote he
Would be guided largely by the advice
and suggestion of the business men
of Sank Centre.
On Monday, February 26th, Mayor
William Parker, County Commission
er Ferd Bergman and the writer,
met with Representative Flahaven
Senator Peter Ahles and Highway
Commissioner Babcock, at which
time Mr.. Babcock thoroughly ex-
planned his plan to float $2O,OOO.OOO
bonds for the purpose of improving
the trunk highways and caring for
the $26,OOO,O0O in bonds which had
been shouldered onto the department
by the s26,OO0,0OO county bond is
sues, the greater part of which were
issued before the actual enactment OF
Constitutional Amendment No. 1.
Mr.. Babcock gave facts and figures
which clearly demonstrated to the
minds of the committee representing
the Sank Centre business men that his
plan was feasible one and that the
bonds would be taken care of by the
motor vehicle tax fixed at an $500
average, as at present.
At the conclusion of Mr.. Babcocks
explanation Senator Ahles stated that
he was convinced that the plan was
feasible and he would support it;
Representative Flahaven also made
the statement in the presence of the
writer, Mr.. Parker, Mr.. Bergman and
Mr.. Babcock that the explanation had
cleared matters in his mind and that
he too would support not only the
County Reimbursement bond issue

but with happy and pleasant dis
position. She was Of a strictly up
right character and had a large cir

to her family but it gave no clue to the
reason that prompted her to end
her young life.-Browervill Blade.

Larry SemOn Funniest Ever In "The
Fly-COp"
The Fly-Cop" is the next Larry Sc
mon comedy to be shown at the Caugh-
rem on Friday and Saturday. This is
the story of an amateur sleuth, who
gets mixed up in the affairs of an un-
foreground restaul ant. Part of the ac-
ton takes place in a subcellar, part on
the roofs of skyscrapers. Larry Semon
also illustrates the manner in which
he works out all his comedies and in
PRODUCES some very clever double ex-
adds to the attractiveness of an ex-
tremely funny comdey.

The Five Dollar Baby with the
charming Viola Dana in the stellar
role. Irwin s. Cobb wrote the story,
which appeared some time ago in the
Saturday Evening Post.
Miss Dana's newest characterization
is that of miss who mas been adopted
as founding by pawnbroker, with
whom she has been left. She appears
in the play first as a tomboy of thir-
teen, causing havoc among the children
in New York's GHETTO, where the story
has its setting. Later, she appears as
grown-up miss with her boarding
school days behind her. and she
promptly falls in love.
The life of the Ghetto is remarkably
pictured in the pnotop1ay. Harry
Beaumont, who directed the picture,
has introduced number of types
which provide much amusement.
Ralph Lewis appears as the Jewish
pawnbroker in an exceptionally fine

are John Harron, Tom MCGUIRE, Otto

story for the screen. John Arnold was

During the war sailing vessels could
neither fight nor run. There are ONLY
one or two instances where they g
capped the enemy after being sighted h>

stead of doing so she hoistcd all sail
