LOCAL COUNCIL REFUSES PER-
MISSION TO HOLD MEETING
In TOWN.

Two national organizers Of the Ku
Klux Klan were in Redwood Falls
Wednesday. 1t was their intention to
hold meeting in the city that even
ing but they were unable to obtain
permission from the local city coun-
Gil. They left somewhat crest fallen
at their failure but promising return
at some later date. These men have
been holding meetings in several towns
in Southern Minnesota and some idea
of their popularity may be received
from the following article clipped
from the Winnebago Enterprise.
"Two organizers of the Ku Klux
Klan, dressed in white robes, were
warmly, yet coldly, received at meet
ing held~here last Friday evening.
"The speaker was given an egg
shower, and automobilists passed to
and fro in front of him, with loud
sounding of horns, to drown his voice.
"The writer was not present at the
meeting, and can't find anyone who
was, so the details we have received
are very meagre. 1t is sufficient to
say, however, that the organizers were
not made to feel at home

for. United States Senator. Magnus
johnson, the Farmer Labor candidate,
has been selected to fill the unexpired
fsf5n of the late Senator Nelson, de-
feeting Governor Preus by about
$4,000 votes. He carried all but
about. a dozen counties, mostly in
s6dthazn Minnesota. The democratic
candidate received less than 1000
votes.
The sentiment in favor of the far
mer-labor candidate was statewide
and is generally regarded as protest
vote against the administration, due
to failure to better economic condi-
tions.
Redwood County went strong for
johnson giving him plurality Of ov-
er thousand votes. A few precincts
in the county gave Preus a slight ma
jority. The returns of the city of
Redwood Falls gave the governor
nearly three hundred votes more than
the successful. candidate. Totals for
the county were Johnson, 2737; Preus,
1877; and Carley, 149. The official
county vote stands as follows:

Golf Tournament
STAMPSON. MoNTEvIDEO, TIED
FOR INDIVIDUAL HoNORs,
BEATEN BY WINDOW MAN.

The Montevideo golf team brought
every thing but raincoats when it came
to Redwood to compete in the Minne-
sofa Valley Golf Tournament Friday
and evidently the rain didn't bother
the team members any, because they
won the cup by virtue of 602 score
Tor eighteen holes and their man
Stampson tied for the lowest indi-
vidual score, but was beaten by Malone
OF Window in four extra holes.
The first nine holes were played in
the morning, twelve foursomes COM
peting. A few scores were reported
below fifty, several below sixty while
two or three remained above eighty.
Stamps0n of Monteyideo held the hon
ors with q score Of forty-fiye. Malone
of Window turned In AT for the
morning round.
In spite of the rain most of the
teams were on hand at one-thirty
practicing approaches, putting and
iron shots. One practice foursome
played the first two holes in the rain
but it was thought best to wait before
starting tournament play. At 2:15
the first foursome for the afternoon
teed off. Six foursomes were started
from the first tee and six from the
seventh in order not to. hold up the
tournament until too late in the after
noon. Stampson and Malone tied for
individual honors with a score of As.
Four extra holes were played Malone
making them in par and winning the

The standing of the teams for the
eighteen holes is as follows:

Px BAND CONCERT AND (.
S2RTs ON PROGRAM.

The St. Anthony council Of the
Knights of Columbus held their annual
picnic in Ramsey State Park Sunday
afternoon. Reverend Father Cullen,
rector Of St. Thomas College was the
speaker of the day. He took as the
subject Of his address,. "Some Modern
Problems and their Solution" In
speaking of the Communistic move
ment Father Cullen deplored the fact
that it should be SO widespread in
this country. It is a movement that
denys the ties of home and church
and recognizes only the individual
As remedy for a condition of this
to the basic principles of the Knights
of Columbus namely, q firm belief in
the supremacy Of God and an un-
swerving allegiance to the constitution
OF the United States. He spoke of
the danger of the separation of re-
ligion and education and said that
with education and religion going
in hand one need not fear the destiny
of the country. In speaking of the trou-
bled condition of economic and state
affairs he painted a graphic word pic
ture of how thousands of men in
spired by religious principle had an
swered the call of Peter the Monk in
the time of the Crusades, of Columbus
inspired by the spirit of discovery
finding a land that was destined to
become the home Of a liberty loving
people, of millions responding to the
call of the oppressed and going across
the seas to fight that democracy might
live. He said that SO long as there
were men like these willing to answer
the call of nation there need be no
fear as to the outcome of the unsettled
condition through which we are now
passing.
After Father Cullen's address a
concert was given by the Redwood
Falls band. A tug-of-war was held
between Redwood and Renville coun-
ties Renville county being the victor.
Races and various sports took up the
remainder of the afternoons program.
