THE USUAL COURSE

Babe Ruth, the king of base
ball batters is a wizard on the
diamond but when it comes TO
financial affairs he admits that he
is a fool-the same as so many
other wizards. He is quoted in
an interview as saying he had
lost $250.000 and adds: Il have
been a babe and fool, but I'm
through"
He tabulates his losses as fol-
lows:
Gambling, $125,000; business
failures, 100000. and fees to
lawyers and detectives, $4,000.
However. he has a paidup en-
dowment policy which will pro-
vide him with $500 a month,
starting when he is as years old,
he says, and that is a good thing
to fall back upon. In that he has
shown a little more foresight
than some of the stars.

ELIMINATING CROSSINGS

When the new No. highway
is opened for traffic next year it
will eliminate II grade crossings
between the Twin Cities and the
Twin Ports, and between Carlton
and Moose Lake alone a distance
of n miles-it will eliminate 8
grade crossings. Here is certain
ly one proof of the advantage of
having through routes built and
looked after by q state depart
ment rather than through town
ship, village and county units.
When every few miles was look
ed after and supervised by diff
ferent set of men the result was
not uniformity and to have but
one grade crossing on each
stretch and perhaps an occasion
al stretch without any crossing
was likely considered good engi-
neering through that style Of road
supervision. But look at the
number of crossings il makes in
the aggregate when travelling the
full distance of $50 miles.
The number Of grade crossing
accidents on Highway No. has
been appalling and it causes
great strain to the train crews.
The Northern Pacific now is OPP
Grating about twenty trains dali
ly over the line between Moose
Lake and Carlton and not a day
passes without several narrow
escapes on that stretch. The
road runs right along beside the
track in many instances and the
hapless motorists invariably
want to race the train, declared
a veteran trainman. These yaps
tear along beside us. gaily wav-
ing at our nerve-wracked crew,
while we are frantically aware
that they may. and yet they may
not know of the next grade eros
sing.
There's hardly a crossing but
what we see a car approaching.
We never know what il is going
TO do. But we can't do anything.
And there is where the strain
comes"

MINNESOTA CLOSING
WORK ON HIGHWAYS
Majority of Contractors Are Fin
ishing Ahead Of Schedules Des-
pite UnfavOrable Season.

Although handicapped and de
layed by bad weather and other
conditions beyond their control
the majority of contractors on
Minnesota trunk highway i'm.
provements will be either finish
ed'or ahead of schedules Nov. 1
says a highway bulletin this
week. j. T. Ellison, first assist.
ant commissioner and chief high
way engineer, complimented the
road-builders generally for pro.
gress made in cooperating with
the highway department to give
the public the use of improved
roads without avoidable delays.
A survey of fifty-fve 1925 grad
ing and crawling jobs showed
that 20 were finished on time
or ahead of completion dates
four one week late, five two
weeks late and seventeen a
month or more behind scheduled
time. Most of the late jobs have
been delayed by rainy weather
or for other reasons for which
in nearly all cases the contractor
was not at fault.
Adverse weather conditions
Mr.. Ellison said, have seriously
interferred with paving construc.
ton, particularly during the past
month. OF about IS miles OF
1925 paving. less than five miles
remained to be poured. but these
were on FIVE different projects,
openings of which are all being
delayed accordingly.
Recent progress reports on new
paving on t. H. No. /, showed
less than a mile unfinished on the
Medford- Faribault section, about
a mile on the Rock Creek-Pine
City project, and about half a
mile on the job north of Sand
stone. On T. H. No. 3 two Sec
tons, one a mile and the other
1900 feet long. were unfinished
between Red Wing and Lake City
and another 5000 feet between
Kellogg and Weaver.
Dates on which these new
pavements will be opend to trav-
ell, the engineer said, will depend
largely on weather conditions.
Three weeks or longer is allowed

THOSE GOVERNMENT
ENVELOPES

A bill will be introduced in the
next session of Congress which
convenes in December to do
away with the printing of corner
cards on government stamped en-
velopes by the government. The
printing is done at ridiculously
low prices-far below competi-
tion prices-and the tax payers
in general make up the deficit
that the government has on that
industry. Those who order their
envelopes printed by the govern
ment get the benefit. II is I'M
fair and should not exist. Many
business men see the unfairness
in it and refuse to use govern
ment printed envelopes.
Some newspapers in rapping
the Republican party-un under
whose regime it has been carried
on for many years-call this a
worse piece of Socialism than was
ever proposed by the Socialists
and they are about right. And
then again there is the Boosting
of the power of the press"
which should be forgotten if the
country presto which the gov
eminent printing Of envelopes
is obnoxious has not enough in
fluence to get up and tell Con-
gress to cut out that foolishness
and make il count. That unfair
competition by the government
is nothing to get excited over be-
cause it does not mean so awful
much, but country newspapers
have whined about it for ages
and now there should be a show
down or else admit mo power"

DISSERTATION
Scottish Rite News Bureau)


An Associated Press dispatch
from Scranton. Pa, states that
thirty persons were made defend
ents in criminal information is
sued in the federal court of that
city, charged with wilful defac-
ing of certain monuments Of the
National Military Park at Gettys-
burg, Pa. This is indeed unfortun-
ate and may not be excused on
the grounds that the souvenir
hunters were actuated by an UNI
comfortable outburst of patriotic
zeal which assumed expression in
the desire to possess themselves
of tangible evidence to show that
they had visited the famous bat
tlefield.
Souvenir hunters have existed
always. Some of them restrict
their operations TO the purloining
of petty articles such as a Pull
man car napkin or spoon. Others
have appropriated the Gideon
Bibles reposing in their hotel
rooms and this larceny is doubly
significant. However, these are
cases of such nature that no ma
terial damage is done in that the
missing articles can be readily
replaced, even though the Pull
man Company figure a distinct
loss of profits at the end of the
business year. When, however,
a misguided patriot permits him
self to be so overcome with emo
ton, while standing on the his
toric field of Gettysburg, that
nothing short of a piece of stone
from one of the memorial shafts
will appease his ardor, it is time
for the federal authorities to step
in and gently but firmly show
him the error of his ways.
Our country possesses many
sacred shrines marking valor and
heroism, and the average Ameri-
can is filled with a sense of awe
and reverence as he surveys the
field upon which gallant Ameri-
cans offered up their lives, or
stands before a beautiful marble
shaft commemorating the noble
deeds of his country's martyred
sons. And thus it should be. The
desire to obtain a piece of con-
crete evidence of American valor
is far from being a proof of 10y
atty and devotion. 1t is nothing
less than theft, even though the
average souvenir hunter may not
realize that he is a potential law
breaker.
1t seems almost reproach to
our citizens that it becomes neces-
sary to place armed guards about
the buildings and parks in which
repose the revered relics won or
sustained in the smoke of battle.
But such is the case and impera-
lively so. 1t matters rot wheth-
er the American patriot in his
pilgrimage to the shrines of his
country visits Boston, Gettysburg
or Richmond, whether he be from
the north or the south as both
sections of our United States
have many evidences of Ameri-
can bravery and soldierly valor.
Let us trust that the day will
come and speedily, when the
throngs of patriotic pilgrims who
visit our historic landmarks will
by their own lawful conduct OBJ
viate the necessity of having
special police officers and iron
bars to guard Americas sacred
relics from wilful dissertation.

CHINESE TROUBLES
Duluth HeraId)

1t appears that the widespread
troubles in China, attended by
riot and bloodshed, have their
real origin in a rising sense Of
Chinese nationalism. The specific
wrongs Of which the Chinese COM
plain are by no means trivial but
their removal might not satisfy
China. What she wants is honor
and recognition for her culture.
China has been the subject of
a more or less peaceful invasion
for a hundred years. The world
outside Of her has sought to
"Westernize" her, as well as to
exploit her. There has been a
battle of cultures. which contin-
ues. Even the Japanese move
ments in China have been along
the lines of Westernization.
Japan does not bring Japanese
ideals to China. She brings the
ideas and methods of the white
world.
Vast sums have been spent to
Christianize China. Devoted
men and women have established
schools, chapels and churches ev-
erywhere in that country. Now
the Chinese confront this move
ment with open opposition in
stead of their former passive re-
sistance. The results of mission
work to this time are that four
millions Of the four hundred mil
lions of Chinese are Christians,
and Western culture, following
religious work. has inevitably
though not intentially challenged
Chinese culture. There is a bat
tie of cultures.
But that is not all. Western
business, cold and calculating,
lacking the sweet altruism of re-
ligion. has entered China follow
ing the trails blazed by the mis-
sions for other and better ends.
To use Chinese cheap labor. cap
ital has erected foundries and
factories in many parts of the
empire. The black smoke of the
mills offends the Chinaman. He
is troubled. He cannot reconcile
modern business with the tenets
of his philosophy.
Chinese complain that wages
are too low in factories estab-
lished by foreigners, that their
ancient religion is not respected.
that Chinese workers or students
are maliciously killed, that Chi
nese are excluded from parks in
their own country. that the in
tricate net of extraterritorial
rights in foreigners presses un-
justly upon them.
These in the main are reason
able complaints, but when and if
they are removed, resurgent ma
tionalistic China will remain
flaming persistently. Perhaps
the time has come when China
must be permitted, as they say,
to live her own life. 1t is pos
sible that the devoted religious
workers would do even better
than now if freed from their POI
litical and business trailers, UNI
invited and undesired by them.
There is much good will in Chi
ma towards this country. This
feeling must be cherished Chi
nese ambitions must be treated
with the respect that is their
due. Along this line there is
safety for the missions and pos
sibly harmony between China
and this country.
