ASKOV
Sept. 1st, 1924.

Thorvald S. Jensen is now
working in the harvest fields
near Desmet, S. d. Later on he
will husk corn and expects to re-
turn home about Christmas time.
The first load of potatoes mar
keted in Askov this season were
brought by Henrik Henriksen to
the A. Henriksen potato ware
house this morning. They are
the Irish Cobbler variety. good
sized and nice and ripe.
Theodore Jorgensen, a brother
of Mrs. j. c. Jensen, 6 miles north
Of town, arrived here nearly two
weeks ago direct from Denmark.
He is temporarily visiting at his
sisters home but is to work for
A. p. Jensen.
Askov was not long without a
shoe repairer and harnessmaker
as F. o. Lund has started up this
week in the c. H. Hansen build
ing on Main street and is now
prepared to do your mending in
that line.
Petersen Bros, north of town,
are having electric light and

GRADE CROSSINGS
DANGEROUS

Another case of not needing
the warning to stop, look
and listen" resulted in the death
of six people at New London,
Wis, the other day when a train
crashed into an automobile at a
grade crossing. One never knows
when a train is coming and the
only way to be entirely safe is to
come to a complete stop before
crossing a railroad. Street cars
and buses have time to do it
and so have others. Much re-
sponsibility rests on anyone car
rying passengers in his car.

that preparedness causes war
would be the same as to believe

NOTHING IN 1T

Not only is it the best morally
to lead the straight and narrow
path and the only right thing to
do, but it pays best in the long
run which is testified to by the
following remark made by a
hold-up man after having plead

There's nothing in it. You

Opinions of Others
FOR DEFENSE DAY

Editor Askov American:
In the Aug. 18th issue of the
American you had an editorial
criticising President Coolidge for
designating Sept. IL as Defense
Day.
The national Defense Day act
is a move in the right direction,
for, although we all hope there
shall be no more wars, there is
not human being on the face Of
the earth today, who can see a
hundred or more or less years
into the future and say that there
will be no more war and be sure
that the world will live up to that
statement. Our oldest histories
and the Bible is the oldest
history of all, tells of war at diff
ferent ages since the world was
created and | believe there will
be wars at different times as long
as the earth exists.
Jealousy, ignorance, greed and
selfishness makes strife between
neighbors and nations alike, re-
gardless of understandings, laws,
treaties or courts.
That the American Legion is
back of the Defense Day program
is enough to recommend it to the
American people and one and all
should support it to the best of
their ability. The members of
the Legion from their expert
ences during the World War saw
and realized. and therefore know
what our unpreparedness and our
hardness in entering the war cost
in human lives of this nations
sons and also those of other coun-
tries-a wasteful shedding of
human blood and the unnecessary
causing of misery and sorrow in
thousands of homes and they do
not want it to happen again. Do
we blame them? No. For every
conscientious. clean-minded and
right-thinking American man or
woman does agree with them and
above all do not want repetition
of what our unpreparedness cost
us then.
Does it cost money to be pre-
pared? Yes, we all know il does
but so does all life insurance and
preparedness is the best kind of
insurance against war in which
this nation can invest. 1t is our
best insurance on the lives Of the
young men and young women of
this country Of ours who must
bear the burden to carry on and
sacrifice everything for us.
II is wrong to say that we court
war by being prepared. for it is
not true in any sense. BY pre-
pairing for war we are not want
ing war any more than the indi-
vidual who takes out big life

A DECADE

~ DE1AOE
With this weeks issue the
American starts out on Volume
XII, having completed 10 years Of
service.
Looking back over the 10 years
II seems but short time and
yet many changes have been
brought about in local as well as
state. national and international
affairs. The past decade has
been perhaps as eventful as any
other decade in the worlds his
tory--thrones have fallen and
new governments have been set
up. The World War set the
earth aflame and while the tur-
MOL has not entirely subdued
since the ending Of that great
contest in 1918, conditions are
gradually coming back to normal
and an era of peace and prosperi-
ty again looms on the horizon.
Ten years ago there were but
two automobiles in this immedi-
ate vicinity--one of which had
but one cylinder and the other a
two lung affair. Today mtomo-
biles are universally owned and
the same holds true the country
over. There are upwards of
1000 cars in Pine county. The
roads of yesterday were muddy
and rutty and today much driv-
ing is done on pavement. II is
only the past two years that we
have been able to listen in on
radio concerts and lectures. Aero
planes have been brought into
use much during this decade and
If another war should occur they
will likely play the greatest part.
The American began publica-
zion on Sept. II. 1914, just a few
weeks after the World War be-
gan. Starting in a town of then
$50 inhabitants it had its trials
and tribulations but the commu-
nifty grew, Pine county grew and
our business developed. AS time
goes on the work seems to be-
come more and more interesting

our differences of opinions with
readers and occasionally a little

Mining Boom In South
Should Help This Section
Several Nearby Districts Have Showings Equal
to Gilberts. Development Goes For
ward East of Fallon

The recent strike at Gilbert, Nye
county, has had the effect of stirring
up mining over the state to a degree
that was not anticipated. The gold
find In the south end of the state Is
already having its influence on the
sections to the north and Churchill
county will come in for its share.
The Goldbasin find of nearly a
year ago while 1t has failed to secure
the necessary capital that should
have gone into this camp. is working
its way out and while no sensational
news has come from the camp the
past few weeks some excellent work
Is being carried forward.
The Hunt-Miller property is work
ing in quiet but sure manner and
shipment of ore for the smelters is
being taken out. This 1t Is believed
will net the owners some spending
money and leaves a considerable ac.
emulation of mill ore on the dump.
Rudolf Miller. who came In Mon
day, states that the property never
looked better and that he and his
partner viii look around for some
kind of a milling plant early In the
spring. The mill erected at Sand
Springs has been gone over but 1t
was not equipped to handle free mill
ing ores and this is the character be-
ing extracted in the Goldbasin sec
ton. II is possible that shipment in
the spring will go to Phonolite for
treatment when a sufficient amount
is taken out to warrant starting this
mill on continuous runs.

another shipment of high grade sill

Broken Hills is being given care
full sampling by several leasers who
are looking for chance at block OF

property there is every reason to be-
lieve that new ore bodies will be
found and that the mine will again

some very high grade ore has been
mined from time to time.
Walter Browder and partner are
taking out some shipping ore from
their lease and will continue work

ed another movement in the old
camp. Parties came in Monday and
secured location. notices and material
for stay on tfe ground. The find,
so it was said, Is not far from the old
Duluth workings and that sensational
ore has been uncovered.
The installation of a fifty-ton cya-
nide plant at Eagleville Is an en-
couraging piece of news. The old
camp has an enviable record as a
bullion producer in the past and with
modern equipment, such as 1t plan

Between the new strike at Phono.

indication that this section will enjoy
some of the boom that Is now cen

1926 BOOSTERS VISIT THIS CITY

The first delegation of the 1929

going to put over.
Teh meeting held at the chamber
of commerce rooms was fairly wei
attended and should have been bet.
ter represented, but owing to no ad-
vance notice this was impossible.
Talks were given by ]. F. Ness
representing Mayor Roberts of Reno,
Jack Knox. president of the club and
Frank J. Hood, vice president.
1t was explained that this was not
a one community movement but in
oluded the whole state, and the state
in return Is inviting the whole of
the Pacific slope to get in and make
1t the event of the west.
From the tenor of the explana-
tions and the response that was ae-
corded there is every reason to be.
lieve that Fallon will do its share OF
boosting for the success of the big
venture.
Following the talks and a general
discussion of the proposed exposi-
ton the Fallon chamber of commerce
endorsed the movement.
