According to radio messages re.
cejved here the ship reached the Bay
OF Biscay Just north OF Bordeaux and,
aided by favorable winds, was making
about 80 miles an hour. One message
reported the ship headed for the

Albert Ballln and reported all his mo-
tors working splendidly.
The fact that ZR-3's getaway took
place on Columbus day was taken by
the Americans aboard as a good omen,
and the Germans, too, when they
learned the significance of the date.
This led TO the suggestion that the
dirigible be christened Columbus, or
America, after delivery to the United
States navy.

FORMER PINE co.
MAN PASSES AWAY

John Richards who lived for a
number of years in the Duxbury
neighborhood, also at Sandstone
and Pine City, died recently.
The Pine County pine City,
Pioneer reports it as follows:
Funeral services were held
Sunday afternoon, October 5th, at
Cherry Grove, near Spring Val
ley, for John Richards who
passed away at st. Luke's hos
pital in Minneapolis last Thurs
day of cancer of the throat. The
last rites were conducted by the
Masonic lodge of which he was a
member.
Prior to the war Mr.. Richards
made his home in this city and
prior to that for a number of
years he lived in Sandstone and
the eastern part of the county.
John volunteered for service in
the Y. M. c. A. overseas and was
with the boys during most Of the
conflict. Upon his return he was
affiliated with F, r. Duxbury in
the land business in Bemidji.
Several months ago his throat
ailment became very aggravated
and consultations with eminent
specialists brought out the fact
that he had cancer of the throat.
He visited here a few weeks ago
on his way from Rochester to
Sauk Rapids and the home of his
brother, and informed us then
that the end was mere matter
of days or hours. He was resign.

CAN'T WAIT

The presidential prediction
poll conducted by the Literary
Digest reminds us of the little
boy who can't wait till Christmas
eve. Fifteen million ballots
were sent out to get the drift OF
the vote before election. Stamps
to the amount of 100000 alone
were used in this advance infor-
nation, say nothing of station
cry and printing. Perhaps the
Literary Digest figures it is
money well spent for advertising,
the securing of new subscribers.
Again it may be figured from an
other angle. If the advance mail
vote shows a big lead for a GER
tain candidate, which it does
now, it may have its effect.
Many like TO get onto the band
wagon and be with the winning
crowd. so the effect that it may
have on the final and only vote
that counts, on Nov. 4th, may be
reckoned with.
The final election may, how
ever, have big surprises in store
for the dopesters.

recent article In the Duluth
Herald. as follows:
Senator William +. Borah OF
Idaho, who has attained standing
ms front-rank statesman, de-
clares, in a recent magazine ar
ticle in which he confronts For
mer Secretary of State Lansing,
that war can be outlawed by pub
lie opinion.
This is obvious. If all the peo-
pie, il even majority of those
whose thoughts form the public
opinion of the world, yes. even if
a powerful and outspoken minori-
ty. set themselves against war,
that pastime of barbarism would
come TO its end.
An attitude of general hostility
to war is step in progressive
civilization. Ii there be nations
inclined to attempt to attain
ends by force, such nations would
hereafter be slow, very slow, TO
strike when they know that such
a course would be met by general
obloquy.
Men and nations have loved
war because it brought them
honor. They will not favor or
follow it when it brings dishonor.
The argument that all law and
order rest on force is fallacious.
Law and order among the citi-
zens of a state, and peace among
nations, rest upon favorable pub
lie opinion. The criminal laws
might be abolished today, and yet
practically all the people would
comply with repealed mandates.
Criminal laws and penalties are
for the very few. Public opinion,
based on morality. is the ruler Of
the multitude.
No one will deny that in the
past nations have cultivated the
art Of war. This continues today
with little restraint. But il the
nations would hereafter cultivate
peace as they have in the past
cultivated war that evil would
disappear.
Let nations cultivate sense OF
justice. Let moderation take the
place Of violence. Let each one
