HALLAM FOR SENATOR

Hon. Oscar Hallam has filed for the
Republican nomination for U. S. SEN
ator from Minnesota.
many friends all over the state.
Judge Hallam was a candidate for
nomination at the last state conven-
ton, but Frank B. Kellogg won the
the platform and in manly speech &C
the platform and in 'amanly speech &C
copied defeat smilingly and pledged
his best efforts to Mr.. Kellogg. This
attitude made Judge Hallam many
friends. Again, last year, after the
death of the late lamented Knute
Nelson, Judge Hallam was candidate
for the nomination at the special cleo
ton, but Governor Preus won. Again
Judge Hallam gracefully acquiesced
and gave the nominee his hearty sup
port.
Now that the term of the junior
senator, Magnus johnson, expires
next March, Judge Hallam once more
enters the field. He is stronger today
than he was last last year or two
years ago, and in the opinion of many
who have made close study of mat
tiers political, he stands good chance
of winning the nomination at the
June primaries, and if nominated
can be elected.
Judge Oscar Hallam is the type of
material Minnesota needs in the
United States senate. He is well ed
ucated, cultured, learned and ex-
perienced in the law, has made a
study of public questions and can
hold his own with the best minds in
congress. In addition to these quail
fcations, Judge Hallam possesses
those qualities of mind and heart that
endear him to his friends. He is
honest, has the courage of his con-
victions, and is courteous gentle
man withal. Judge Hallam's election
to the senate would restore to Mime
sofa much of its lost prestige.
That Judge Hallam will receive
hearty support in Mobiles county goes
without saying. Mobiles sent solid
Hallam delegation to the last state
convention, and there is every reason
to believe that he is stronger here
today than he was two years ago. His
platform appears in the news columns
of this issue. 1t appeals to all good
citizens and especially to all good Re
publicans.-W orthington Globe.

Sheriff's and police are effectively
enforcing the state motor vehicle tax
laws this year in most sections of the
state, says highway bulletin this
week. Active assistance is being
given officials in many districts by
members of the state highway organi-
cation.
Here is the sum-up in the bulletin {:

nesota motor vehicles are registered

have the state road between the Two
towns laid out on the south side of
the Great Northern track, and has so
established the road.
The protest is being lodged in an
effort to have the designation changed
back to the old road.
The highway department wishes to
make the change for the reason that
there is a bad railroad crossing at
Osakis and another one at West I'm
ion. By running the road on the
south side of the track the two cross
ings are eliminated. 1t will be neces-
sary to lay out a new road south of
the track in order to carry out the
purposes of the highway department.
A delegation representing the Osa-
kis Commercial Club conferred last
week with Commissioner Babcock
with the idea of having the road left
as it is. E. r. Ruggles of Osakis
headed the delegation.
Todd county is interested in the
matter because if the road is changed
it will mean that large amount OF
FEDERAL aid expected to be expended
on the West Union road will be lost
to the county and the amount will
have to be made up by local taxation

a good road and a little more gravel
would make it a perfect roll. 1t is
the contention of Osakis and Yves.
Union citizens that the grade cross
in,y menace can be eliminated by con-
struction such as will run the road
under the tracks at the two particu-
10: crossings. Mr.. Ruggles says that
Great Norehern engineers have said
that the plan of the underground
crossings is feasible.

Credits Better Highwas
for Automobile Cost Cut
University Farm Bulletin Shows Big
Drop in Automobile Expenses Re-
ported by County Agents

Better roads were perhaps the big
gest factor in the 1928 reduction OF
the automobile expenses of Minneso-
ia county agents which shows de-
crease in average mile cost to less
than 81 per cent of the 1920 cost.
George A. Pond, cost accountant
at the University Farm, made a state
ment to that effect in further COM
ment on the division bulletin on the
subject. Other things which helped
to bring down the auto costs, he
said, were the long, dry season max
ing for greater mileages, the lower
prices of gasoline and tires and the
smaller fixed costs, all held interest
ing to car owners, present and pros
pective.
Fifty-six county agents in as many
parts of the state ran their cars an
average of 1924 miles each last
year at a total mile cost of 6.49
cents, compared with the showing by
81 agents of 6,447 miles each at
11.51 cents on 1920 averages. All
but two or three of the machines were
light, 4-cylinder machines, the bulle-
tin explains, that fact accounting for
the mile costs so much below those
based on all motor vehicles, trucks in
Guided.
Good roads savings are reflected in
lower depreciation, gasoline and tire
expenses, although the bulletin cites
the fact that prices of cars, gasoline
and tires were lower last year than
in 1920 by perhaps 20 per cent. Still
greater reductions will be noted, how
ever, in the comparative costs for the
two years.
Mile costs of gasoline dropped from
2.31 cents in 1920 to 1.20 cents in
1923; oil from &c to 26c; tires and
tubes from $1.55 to Gle; repairs rom
$2.57 to $1.32 and miscellaneous OPP
Grating items went up from &c to 1Oc
and under fixed charges garage rent
dropped from &c to 47c; deprecia-
ton from $3.15 to $1.98 and interest
from 73c to SIC while insurance adj
vanced from 13c to lac car mile.
A good roads credit of four-fifths
of the savings on depreciation, re-
pairs, gasoline and tire items would
account for out of the cents a
mile. Further, cents mile on
100000 motor vehicles registered in
Minnesota at 5000 miles year aver
age would. aggregate $67,000,000 an
nually.

The money is demanded as an adj

DEATH OF .LENIN
.STIRS CAPITOL,,S
OFFICIAL CIRCLES
Great Loss to Russia,
Say Liberals

WASHINGTON.-News of Lenin's
death stirred Washingtoa's official
and diplomatic circles deeply. The
immediate reaction was speculation
on what his removal would mean
to Russia.
Senator Borah, Idaho, Chairman of
the Senate Committee holding hear
ings on Russian recognition and the
chief Senate advocate of American
recognition of the Soviet Regime,
said II do not know enough about
the situation there to say what the
effect of his death will be, but |
feel sure that if he had lived, Russia
within the next two or three years
would have been back on a sound
economic footing and would have
been restored to complete relation
ship with all countries.
"Lenin was undoubtedly a man of
great ability and while he made great
mistakes, he also made great prog
ress."
No one who will control Russia
following the death of Lenin can pre-
vent the drift of the country towards
capitalism, said Col. VIM. N. Has
kell, who was the head Of the Amer
lean relief administration in Russia.
Colonel Haskell, who was head Of
the American relief administration in
Russia, said:
at is only question of time in
my opinion before all the govern
ments will be dealing with Russia.
Lenin was leading his country in
this direction as fast as he could
Stain, the Minister of National
tiles in Russia, will succeed Lenin
as the controlling power of Russia,
Haskell predicted. Stain is a quiet,
unassuming man, but a power in
Russia, and, according to Haskell,
"was very close to Lenin."

at an end. international Menshevism
again accused the Bolsheviki of be-
traying the workers in favor of the
peasants. And the party Of the Boil
shevlkl itself wavered once more. A
mighty opposition lifted its head
within the Party. But Lenin did not
waver: he convinced the Party that
concessions must be given to the
farmers in order to save the rule
of the working class, and they must
be given Immediately and without de-
lay. Kronstadt is in mutiny. and
Tambov is ablaze with peasant up
risings. And Lenin was again right.
he saved the Russian revolution and
thereby the world revolution.
Leninism is Marxism applied to the
present, the final, period of capital
ism. Lenin's most basic and most
profound thought was his under
standing and Analysing the revolu-
ton as uniform process. Lenin was
the first who saw clearly that the
revolution cannot be the achieve
ment of single class, but that it can
succeed only if on the one hand, not
only the working class, but all other
non-capitalist strata are revolution
lied, and if on the other hand, the
capitalist class itself is no longer In
a position which represented only the
narrow class interests of the indus
trial workers within capitalist socie-
ty, Lenin emphasized the general in
terests Of the working class as the
class Of the revolution. Lenin rec
ognized that to reject the idea of an
alliance with the farmers is not re-
volutionary, uncompromise, but an
opportunism which is afraid of VIC
tory. Lenin did not only recognize
that an isolated Communist Party
without the laboring masses cannot
be victorious, but he also recognized
that the working class alone, without
the farmers as allies, can neither be
victorious, nor retain permanent VIC
tory.
And Lenin recognized that the
proletarian revolution in the highly
developed capitalist countries must
form an alliance with the oppressed
small nations and with the enormous
masses of the exploited colonies
against ruling imperialism. Lenin
knew that only the working class
can bring about its own salvation.
But he also knew what the Second
International did not know, that the
working class cannot bring about its
own salvation If it does not become
the leader Of all the oppressed and
exploited of the earth.

audacity, always audacityl" Marx
called Danton the greatest strategist
Of revolutionary tactics. Lenin is the
greatest realist, the coolest analyzer
Of facts; but the basis of his strategy
at the same time was always the
slogan Of Danton: "Audacity, more
audacity, always audacity!"
Lenin always had the mental cour-
age and determination to advance or
to retreat in a given moment.
On November z, 1917, Lenin had
the audacity to seize power for the
working class. A capitalist universe
laughed at the Bolsheviki, and even
his own party wavered; the best and
Oldest revolutionaries, Zinoviev and
Kamenief recoiled from the terrible
responsibility. But Lenin stood like
rock Of iron and led the Russian
workers to power and to lasting VIC
tory.
Then later, the question Of the
peace Of Brest-Litovsk. The whole
Of international Menshevism accused
the Bolsheviki Of betraying the revo-
luton in concluding peace with Ger
man imperialist Kaiserdom. And
even the party Of the Bolsheviki
again wavered. Such keen-minded
Marxists as Radek and Bucharin
could not understand the necessity Of
the retreat. But Lenin did not waver
for n moment. He led his party with
an iron hand TO Brest-Litovsk, in
order to gain breathing spell for
the revolution. And Lenin was again
right. German Kaiserdom collapsed
miserably year later.

Lenin at the Age of 16
By MAX SCHACHTMAN,
Editor, Young Worker.

Even during his early youth, Nicolai
Lenin showed an active interest in the
revolutionary movement in Russia.
While attending the University of Ka-
zan, he became very active in organ
izing revolutionary movement among
the students. This was during the Bit
terest days of czarist oppression, but
the fear of persecution did not deter
Lenin from carrying on working
class activity. For this activity he was
expelled from the university at an
'rly age. /.
