Duquette folks are sorry on ac-
count of the departure from here
of a couple of old and highly es-
teemed citizens-Mr. and Mrs. A.
j. Swanson who left the first of
the month to take up their abode
in an old peoples home. The
Swansons came to Duquette from
Rock Creek a number of years
ago and bought the 40 acre farm,
the SEA of the SCI. Sec. IA, that
they have since occupied and inn
proved, However being childless
and Mrs. Swanson being in very
poor health, they found farming
too hard and made application
and secured a place in the old
peoples home. They were high
ly respected and beloved by all
who knew them, as they were
kind, public spirited citizens of
sterling qualities in every way.
Although missed in the commu-
nifty, we also rejoice in the fact
that they are assured of the good
care and peace they so highly de-
serve. Mrs. Swanson will first
go to the Bethesda hospital at
st. Paul for medical treatment.

POLITICS WARMING Up

National politics have already
been discussed long enough this
year to be quite hot and we read
and hear much comment about
such presidential aspirants as the
man who is now in that high Of
fee President Coolidge and Hi
ram Johnson, McAdoo and Under
wood. The Teapot Dome affair
is still occupying front page
space in the dailies and most like
ly it will be the means Of fur
nishing good campaign thun-
der" when election is nearing.
But local politics or politics
nearer to home, is also commenc-
ing 10 warm up and is now about
the stage of luke-warm. Con-
gresham Schall of this, the 10th
district, is going to make the
race for United States Senator,
the office now held by Magnus
Johnson. This Of course leaves
the field open for congressional
aspirants and likely there will
be many. Some Pine county
newspapers have already COM
menced to boost a local man
Adolph S. Larson OF Sandstone =
for that office. Mr.. Larson has
had dozen years legislative ex-
perience at the state house in st.
Paul where he was representa-
tive for three terms and is now
senator. II is big climb TO con-
gress and whether or not a man
from the country portion of this
district can be elected time will
tell. A large portion of the city
of Minneapolis is a part Of the
tenth district and of course there
will be candidates from there and
perhaps several from the coun-
try. Mr., Larson has never been
defeated at the polls and Of
course IL he goes into the race
he goes in to win. II is rather
early TO make any predictions.

getic. Woodworking and able Pine
county man. Mr. Hurley Is

body, and In now n middle-aged
man. Aside from his extensive
law practice in Pine county Mr..
Hurley also maintains an office
In 81. Paul together with broth
err. Matt. who In also an attorney.
The article follows:
Speaking before an audience of
nearly 800 American Legionaires,
their fathers and friends last
evening Michael B. Hurley, ma
tionally known Americanism
worker, legionnaire and attorney
of Pine City and st. Paul, paid
glorious tribute to the memory
of Abraham Lincoln, upheld the
American Constitution as an in
strument manufactured with
Divine help, and urged members
Of the legion and men in general
to aid and assist the Boy Scout
movement.
In his address Mr.. Hurley
stated that the soldiers compen-
sation measure stands firmly up
on the grounds of justice and
that if il were found TO be UNI
worthy Of that term by the
American people after complete
and impartial investigation the
American Legion would abandon
all efforts towards its passage.
Love, Justice and education
are the three principles upon
which every movement sponsor
ed by the legion are founded
Mr.. Hurley asserted. He stated
that the legion sought welfare
measures for the disabled upon
the grounds of love and justice,
and supported the Boy Scout
movement and every other
wholesome movement for the
betterment of youth. upon all
three principles.
The need of leadership and
support of men in the scout
movement was stressed as the
greatest need Of the organized
effort being made by the Boy
Scouts towards better citizenship
in the growing generation.
He scored the movement on
foot among certain earnest and
well-meaning groups TO assert
that the supreme court of the
United States had no power to
declare law unconstitutional as
contrary to the meaning and in
depreciation given that instru-
ment by its holders.
Likewise he scored those who
claim that the Constitution takes
no heed of God inasmuch as the
Divine name is not written in il,
Mr.. Hurley asserted that the as
sembling Of the many truths en-
bodied in the Constitution could
not have been made without Di-
vine insight and declared that
the Constitution was founded
and based upon declarations
made in the sermon on the
Mount.
In his tribute TO Abraham Lin
coin the speaker stated that il
was he who saw and made plain
the great fact that the United
States was but one Federal state
and that each component part
was but a part of the whole
without power to leave the Union
created by the Constitution.

The forfeits were collected by the

In one instance however the SER

fine. and the chairman directed his
attention to the oversight.
Again the sergeant remained indif-

Rapping for order, the chairman
exclaimed:

Amid the painful silence the SER
