One more expedition has reached the North
Foe at much expense and greater risk. And
just how much has< science benefited? We are
out for information.

'"The politicians are beginning to issue long
winded statements says the Beandette Region
And then Billy Noonan, the editor, adds with a
chuckle, 4'Read 'em and sleep!"

| Senator Frank Putnam, the Grand Old Man of
the Minnesota Senate, has again filed for that
office. Everybody feels easier now that they
know the state can depend on Puts being on the
job.
If you owe the Gazette anything on SUBJ
scription we'd like it if you would come in and
pay. In case you don't owe us anything, come in
and subscrbe-and then you will US some
thing. We shall like that, too.

A Watonwan County breeder sold fifty-four
head of hogs as the result of classified adver-
tsement run in the St. James Plaindealer. He
ran the ad four weeks and it cost MIN round
dollar. Who said anything about it paying to
advertise?
Keep the boys and girls so busy that they
won't have time to get into mischief" says Clar-
ence barrow. That comes the nearest to being
good common sense Of anything we have~ever
heard Of Clarence saying.
IT.
There is much talk of death by hanging, of
the electric chair, of shooting at sunrise and of
the reestablishng of whipping posts. And with
them all there has been as yet punishment de-
vised that is an adequate punishment for the
man who started calling children "Kiddies."
IT.
Grant Utley of the Cass Lake Times is get
ting bit fed up on hearing the constant repeti-
ton of the statement that EVERYBODY is
making moonshine He sputters, Everybody
ISN'T making it! You aren't and I'm not so
what do they mean by everybody?"

Most anything can happen, and we really new
| er get discouraged nor too tired of waiting. In
fact we are even SC full of hope that we expect
to live long enough to see Dad Dillnlan and Mabe
Moreaux both issue papers without any adver-
tsements on the front page. Maybe we will!

claims that life wouldn't be such an awful grind
if it weren't for the Food, Finances and Females
which confront fellow at every turn of the
campus trail. Aside from rather cheap ALTER
ativeness there seems to be grain or two of
sense in the statement.

Two things will never be understood. The
husband will never understand why the wife
bought thirty-fve dollar dress when ten dol
lar one would have answered the purpose, and
the wife will never understand why the hus-
band sat in poker game to the extent Of forty
dollars, instead of paying the rent. Two more
reasons why life is interesting and complicated

We hope our laws will never be amended
as to permit graduates of our chief institutions
of learning a chance to bring suit for damages
on the grounds that they expected, armed with a
diploma they would be able to go out in the world
and grab off fat job right away, instead of hav-
ing still to go through the hard school of ex-
perience.-Exchange.

St. Paul lobster named Mike LAM
brecht, never heard of outside, of his
voting precinct, has filed as democratic
candidate for governor. His action
! makes it necessary to print democratic
primary ballot, to be distributed to every
voting precinct in the state-Martin
County Sentinel.
Great and marvellous is the Primary System!

In this year of our Lord 1926, many men
who never saw the editor of the Gazette nor read
her paper, are manfesting great and sudden
admiration for her and great respect for the
value of her paper. At least we judge this from
the tone of letters which reach desk almost
daily The reason for this sudden and very great
affection is simple-the men campaigning for
state offices and free publicity is the fondest
thing they are of!
+ + +
Anyone who has read with anything resem-
bling thoughtfulness the opening campaign
speech made by Ted Christanson has become
convinced of two things-the first is that Ted
can never classify as a professional politician
because he is too brutay frank. The ether is
that he still hangs to that bit of old-fashioned
nonsense to the effect that public office is a
public trust Anyone who wants to vote for a
man with such antediluvian notions can-we
think it a good bunch ourselves.
