Several districts of the country
are returning to road work for pris-
oners instead of sticking them in
jails more magnificent than any
thing they ever saw before and feed
ing them fat and saucy. All the
county jails of the state are. filled
with moonShine bootleggers and they
are having the time of their lives.
Their pockets are filled with money
and the larger part get their meals
from restaurants and first-class eat
:ng houses, using the Jail as a vaca-
ton spot in which to rest up from
their arduous duties of peddhng
real poison to young and old. When
released after sixty or ninety days,
many start right over again, refresh
ed and ready for more cash to con-
quer. Several thousand able-bodied,
men on the roads under a good fore
man would make considerable diff
ference in the appearance of the
highways. Maybe some of the dis
tricts have the right bunch?

Automobiles have been, in possibly
some cases, detriment to pros
perity, but in the large percentage
of cases they have been of wonder
full advantage. If we didn't have
100000 automobiles in our coun-
try we would still be in the mud, be-
cause good roads were not given any
consideration. The farmers would
work out a road tax by turninp the
sod over and leave it for the horses
and wagons to plod through and
trample down. That was about all
there was done for good roads.
Now we have graveled and the best
of paved roads, giving everybody an
opportunity to enjoy the same. The
automobile has changed all this and
we have the best roads all over the
United States with the good work
being prepared for by appropriations
being made by every state in the
union. Minnesota is a leader and
should continue in that class. Let
the good work go on.-Stillwater

A youngster down in Waseca
county got three years in THE state
house OF correction for taking an
old overcoat and stuffed owl from
railway station. That's right
teach these youngsters that they
must obey the majestic law or suf-
fer the consequences. But what we
can't sift through our noodle is why
stealing an overcoat and a stuffed
owl is thirty-six times as great crime
as that of loading up with moon
shine, stealing an automobile and
raising hi generally, for which the
youngster gets thirty days in jail,
if anything. Perhaps it was the
owl that did it.-Hibbing News,

Charley Henke has sold his Das-

are indeed sorry to lose Charley
from the Editorial bunch. He usual
ly knew what he was writing about.
Taking this as a criterion, it is also
safe to remark that he knows what
he is doing in selling his newspaper.
Charley is the efficient assistant to
