SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT
From The Owatonna Journal
ChrOnicle)

Something to think about for Min
nesota residents in the way of tang
ible suggestion for the remedying of
a broken down policing system, is
offered by Gunnar B. Bornson, gift
ed editor of the Minnesota Mascot,
who suggests ''Babcock System Of
policing the state. A state policing
system, Editor Bjornson maintains,
could be made efficient and practical
under the leadership of the right man.
1t could be used effectively to capture
a large percentage, at least, of the
criminals who are now escaping easily
from policing system which has been
rendered out of date by the motor
car and the fine highway. Here is a
portion Of the editorial in which the
Mascot editor makes his suggestion.
"Our present police system has
broken down. 1t is failure in the
most complete sense Of the term.
"The only thing that our present
police and sheriff system can do is to
catch the criminal who either can not
or will not run.
"The crooks outwit the police every
minute of the day.
"The people are placed in the
humiliating position of seeing thieves
and murderers run rings around the
guardians of the law that the peo-
pie have put their trust in.
"What is said here about one state
is true of all states in the Union
but more especially in the states
where good roads abound.
"What we need is a man-one
man.
eve need a man in Minnesota who
will give the state 'Babcock system
of policing. 1t is possible to find
honest policemen and the right man
could organize, from these, a crime
fighting force that would be as eff.
cient as was ever any Northwest
Mounted Police.
"The people are striving all the
time to preserve life and pro perry
Whether that is the most noble OF
the aims and endeavors that might
occupy our time is not the considera-
ton at issue. The fact is that this
is the thing that most occupies oul

OUR GREETING AND WISH

At this season of the year when the
spirit of "Peace on Earth" is sup
posed to influence the people of prac
Ically every nationality and creed
It is time for people everywhere tt
take an inventory of themselves
after which we will probably discover
that we are not all right and the
other fellow is all wrong. The fol
lowing copyrighted sentiment fur
ished the Herald by the Western
Newspaper Union, SO beautifully ex
press the sentiment of the Herald
that we are glad to reproduce il
herewith:
AS the three wise men rode
on that first Christmas to find
the manger-cradled Babe of
> Bethlehem, they bore gifts on
their saddle bows; gifts of gold,
frankincense and myrrh. And
so the spirit of Christmas CIV
ing crept into the worlds heart.
The injunction was to go into
the highways and byways and
seek out the poor and distressed,
the humble and afflicted, the
ragged children and the out
casts and the aged, and in the
name of Him who was born on
Christmas day, carry some sum,
shine into their lives. Give I'M
to the poor and afflicted and
your hearts shall glow with
peace which passeth understand
ing.
The two dominant characters
tics of the Christmas season are
kindness, expressed by good will
toward men, and the inward Joy
wrought by kind acts, and sug-
gested by peace on earth. "The
earth has grown old with its bur-
den Of care, but at Christmas it
always is young" and with each
recurring Yuletide we like to
think of the spiritual blessings
brought to the children of men
on that first Christmas. -
Our greeting to you is one of
kindness in return for the good
will you have displayed toward
US. Our wish is that you may be
filled with fresh, clean joys of
the season, and receive liberal
endowment Of that spirit which
at this time rises like mighty
food over the world.

factions have prevented an organiza-

Enough has developed to indicate
that the Soldiers bonus will have the
right of way in legislation. The Her
aid is for the ex-Service men, but it
does not believe that conditions are
favorable at this time to burden the
common people with the heavy adj
ditional tax of $4.000.000,00O
necessary to provide for the pay
ment of the bonus. The last
Congress passed a bonus bill but
did not make any provision for
it's payment and President Harding
very wisely vetoed the measure.
1t is more of than passing interest
to note that representatives in both
The House and Senae from the south
ern states, are unit for the Soldiers
bonus. 1t is also OF more than pas
sing interest to note that only one
southern state, Missouri, has passed
a state Soldiers bonus bill. To the
credit of Minnesota, this state was
among the very first in the union to
recognize the service rendered by the
Gopher state boys and expended
about $30,000,000 for their relief.
This legislation was enacted at the
first session of the legislature follow
ing the close of the war.
The Herald is convinced that many
of the representatives in congress
know that it is unwise for congress
at this time to pass the service mems
adjusted compensation bill, but they
are not morally strong enough to
back up their judgment.
In his recent message to Congress
President Coolidge went on record as
opposing Soldiers bonus bill at this
time. The indications are that the
president will veto the bonus measure
when it comes before him. It is also
just as certain that the House will
carry the measure over his veto, but
what the Senate may do is question.

HUNTING THAT HAS THRILLS
Night Shooting In the Jungle Would
Seem to Furnish Excitement
Enough for Anyone.

Night shooting, says a big-game
hunter in the Wide World Magazine,
provides a form of excitement entirely
its own, and should only be INDUCED
In by real gluttOns or those Of sui
cidal tendency. OF course, by this Is
not meant the "sitting-up-a-tree' kind
of shooting, but the ION foot" way,
Bull elephants have pernlcious habit
of coming into native gardens in the
night, eating the growing crops and
smashing up as much as they can.
Then 1t Is that the intrepid hunter can
20 out II he wishes to do battle with
them.
One olstwo points are worth renenl-
boring: Noises at night are magnlfed
to high degree. Field mice sound
like herds Of heavy-footed beasts; and
wild pigs are as often as not mistaken
for the elephants themselves. A lot
Of time can be wasted with ones heart
in ones mouth, carefully stalking that
sound, with eyes searching for that
huge bulk one expects to see looming
up In the darkness. Then something
happens, at your very feet, with awful
clatter that makes you imagine the
next moment will be your last--but It's
only pigs.
After this one hears the elephant
scrunching the crops and moves
toward Ito find II not there, though
every other animal in creation seems
to be making ear-splitting noises.

HAIL-SHooTING NOT FEASIBLE
Scheme That Was Widely HeraIded
Some Few Years Ago Has Gone
Into the Discard.

Statements appear at intervals In
the press heralding new ways of max
ing rain, preventing rain or fog, or
forestalling the disastrous effects Of
storms These ideas are not new Ten
years or more ago certain countries In
Europe were thrown into excitement,
reflected in their newspapers, over the
possibility of a scheme called hail
shooting. 1t was believed that by
shooting bombs into the air before an
Oncoming storm 1t could be dlsslpated,
thus avertlng consequent destruction
to crops from rain or hail. Contrary
to the opinions of the best meteorolo-
glsts a good deal of money was spent
in experimenting with hail-shootlng,
but little Is ever heard of It now.

Railroads Have Best OF IL

tauqua, states:
"Back In 1890" he explains. "a law
was passed which required railroads
and traction lines to cut the Canada
thlstles, dandelions and other weeds
along their right Of way. Labor was
cheap then and the law provided that
II railroad failed to do the work the
farmer could employ man to cut the
weeds and bill the railroad at the rate
Of SO day.
"Now with labor charging SIS and SO

1t cheaper to let the farmer do the
work. My bill would allow the farmer
to charge the road SO day II he has
the work done."-New York Sun.
