THIS is the way confession Of
murder and of several robberies
were wrung from this lad. How many
could resist the temptation to confess
to anything in order TO gain respite
from such inhuman punishment.
There is not a person who ever had
any experience with the methods used
by the police who will not believe
Perry's story. Mayor Dever and his
chief A. Collins, expressed great in
dignation when Perry's story was
made public. This is not the first
time that Chicago police have been
caught with the goods in cases Of this
sort. They are supported by the
powerful money interests however,
and always escape punishment. Only
when they rob the capitalists. which
occasionally, do they get their
medicine.

THE JOINER.

Up in our north woods of Mime
sofa a beautiful pine tree had been
uprooted by the wind. So thick was
the forest that the tree could not fall
completely over but leaned heavily
upon its neighbors. In the course of
the years new roots were put forth
and the tree was firmly rooted again.
Through the support of its neigh
bors the tree had been saved.
We have been accustomed to ridicule
the individual who was a professional
"joiner." His wallet is full of men,
bership cards. His coat lapel is COW
cred with badges like a German gen.
eral with medals. He does not have
nights enough in the week to attend
all the meetings.
But there is enormous moral value
to the average man in the fellowship
of some group of kindred spirits.
Many a man or woman uprOOted by
the storms of some great temptation
has temporarily lost his balance but
because of the sympathetic encour-
agement of fellow members in some
church or society has been able to
take root again and grow into strong
and useful citizenship.
AS we conceive it, this is about the
most useful service that any church
can render to some men. If church
membership means anything it means
fellowship sympathetic understand
ing in the hour of a mans greatest
need. Of course, the church has fail
ed at this task many times but the
Almighty alone knows how many
topping men and women have been
saved.
The casual worshipper gains much
from his occupancy of church pew
with his acauaintanceship among the
active member of the organization,
of Sabbath morning. But it is the
people, his sense of responsibility for
the good name of the church, his feel
ing that he has the support and cor
dial good wishes of the group in his
struggle for higher idealism who gets
the benefit of the church at it's best.
The church is not made up of people
who are better than the rest but of
those who are trying to be better
than they are. It is this common
struggle after higher ideals that in
spires the weakest member and fires
the strongest.
The "joiner" has all the advantage
on his side.-Bemidji Pioneer.

DUMB BELLS

"Dumb-bell is such an expressive
term it is too bad it was not or
iginated by some literary genius SO
that it would now be accepted as the
best of English" declared Prof.
Thomas A. Knott, of Iowa University
in a lecture at Northwestern Univer
sity on the use and admissibility Of
slang. The origin of this apt char
acterization is not known, but per-
haps it was originated by some liter
airy genius-or some one who so re-
garded himself, whatever the world
might thing. Perhaps he did not
realize the value of the term until its
popularity and dizusion had made it
too late for him to claim its origina-
ton convincinaly. But suppose it
were traced to an acknowledged lit
erary genius-would that immediate
ly change it's character from slang to
good English? Good English is good
usage, that is usage by those who
know what good English is-which
explanation seems to be somewhat
circular. In all the wide use Of
"dumb-bell" it has not been noted
that it has been taken~hp by the pur-
lists, or even by those who merely
adhere to good English. 1t has been
used and over-used by good many
other people. Some of them, indeed,
would hardly know how to get along
without it. It may be heard in the
streets, in the marts, on the links and
even in the drawing rooms, where al
most anything may be heard in these
days of independence and advance
ment; it may be even heard from the
housetops, but not from the pulpit or
even from the rostrum. But Dumb
bell" may yet make place for itself
if it retains it's popularity. Other
now acceptable words and phrases
have started from quite as humble
beginnings and the record shows that
climbers often get into good society.
1t may even get into politics, for it is
evident that the candidate who could
poll the dumb-bell vote would have a
walkover.

COLONEL MITCHELL'S HOT
SHOTS.

Colonel William Mitchell, who was
4 general when he started agitatlng
for a separate air department to take
control of air fighting out OF the
hands of the army and navy, may
become a corporal as q result OF the
broadside he has fired at his superior
officers.
He says that 'these accidents are
the direct result Of incompetency,
erir,inal negligence and almost treas
enable administration of national de-
tense by these two departments. :.
This is extreme. Colonel Mitchell
had only to go one step more to
accuse the army and navy chiefs OF
murder, and to charge that they de
iberately sent these men to their
deaths.
Probably he will be tried for insub-
ordination.
He should not be tried by those
whom he has accused. But he should
BE- tried.
The charges he has made are too
direct, too terrible, to be ignored.
Officers of the army and navy
should be permitted to tell what they
have to tell that is Of value, but they
should not be able with impunity to
make reckless charges that they
cannot substantiate.
Mitchell should be tried.
But while he is being tried he
should have a full opportunity to
prove his charges if he can.
If he can't prove them, he should
have the punishment he deserves for
reckless abuse of his superiors.
If he CAN prove his charges, then
zI1e punishment, should go to those to
whom it belongs.-Duluth Herald.

SHERIFF JULIUS MAKES
RAID ON LINDEN FARMS

Sheriff VIM. ]. Julius and several
deputies of New Ulm, motored out t.
the Richard Raddatz farm in Linden
township near Hanska, Tuesday of
last week, after the sheriff had been
informed that the illicit manufacture
of liquor was going on there. After
serching the place still was found
secreted in a shed near the barn,
which had the appearance of an up-
to-date plant. They sliced the still
and 200 bottles Of beer, together with
seventy-five gallons of mash.
From there the raiding party went
to the Paul Gutknecht farm. finding
Gutknecht busy cooking mash and
nearby still in full blast. The sheriff
also siezed the still equipment and
quantity of liquor.
Both Raddatz and Gutgnecht were
arrested and waived examination.
They were released on $500 bond
each. Their cases will come up in the
December term of district court.

DIFFERENT VIEWS.

After six years of prohibition we
are forced to admit that conditions
are worse than during the saloon
DAYS. People who never touched a
drop while liquor could be purchased
from dealers are now contracting the
drink habit. We have always con-
tended that people are not made bet
ter by law and as long as we have
forcibly regulate the habits of peo-
pie, so long will we have fragrant
violations of such laws. It is high
time for all decent citizens who have
the welfare of our youth at heart to
look conditions squarely in the face
and then do that which will bring
relief. After six years of so-called
prohibition we are facing conditions
worse than they ever were before.
We believe that prohibition cannot
be enforced and that sooner we make
It possible for people to secure light
wines and beers without becoming
criminals, the better we will be off.
New Ulm Review.
The above cry from another parch-
ed throat is fairly representative of
She argument the vets are putting
up for the return of their bottle.
What laws do not regulate the habits
Of people? And what is law for if
not to protect people from their own
weaknesses. Contract the habit of
picking up things that do not be-
long to you and you will soon learn
that there is a law to refrain you.
Start beating your wife and abusing
your children as the booze hounds Of
~the good old days of the saloon"
used to do and the law will again
step in to regulate your habits. Con-
tract the habit of stepping on the gas
while driving up a city street and
you will again bump up against the
law. Throw rubbish where it will
endanger the health of your neigh
bors and your habits will be very
quickly regulated whether you like
it or no. Conditions may be bad but
they would be far worse if the saloon
were back. Light beer in Canada
proved joke; did not even begin to
stop bootlegging and liquor but serv-
cd only to give non-drinkers taste
