REALTY ACTIVITY
SHOWS RECESSION
September Figure Put at 164
as Against 167 Reported
in August.

Real estate activity for the country
as whole was measured for Septem-
Der by the index figure of 1914, accord
ing to the statistics compiled monthly
by the National Association of Real
Estate Boards from official records of
transfers and conveyances in Al typi-
cal cities. The September figure is a
recession of five points from the index
of August OF this year. The index
for September of 1925 registered 167.
The associations calculations are
based on the official records of the Al
cities for the years 1916-1923, taken as
a norm. The September figure there
fore indicates that market activity
for real estate in the Nation as q
whole is approximately 81 per cent
above the average for that month
during the period 19161923.
With building construction reported
as proceeding at a rate of approx
mately $5,500.000 per month for the
first nine months of the present year,
the total construction volume for the
year will apparently be approximately
that reached in the records of the past
two years, the association believes.

The senatorial election in Maine
Monday resulted in the selection of
Arthur R. Gould, Republican, over
his Democratic opponent, Fulton J..
Redman. The contest was watched
with interest by Republicans and
Democrats all over the country, as the
number of members from each of the
dominating political parties in the
U. S. Senate was even At. Now the
Republicans have 4S and the Demo-
Gratis At. There is one Farmer
Labor senator, Henrik Shipstead, of
Minnesota. On measures where there
might be a straight party vote, it
leaves much leverage in the hands of
Senator Shipstead. He can then tie
the vote or swing victory to the Re-
publicans. However, it is seldom
that there is a straight party vote
throughout, but, nevertheless, Mr..
Shipstead is in an enviable position
today. From all appearances he is
we'll able to fill the job. +

]. Adam Bede, the we'll known hui
morist of Pine City, and who is also
a great booster for the Great Lakes
Saint Lawrence Tidewater. having
spoken for that measure frequently
in the East, appeared before the city
council meeting in Duluth the other
day and protested againt the term
"Chicago's water steal. Mr.. Bede
said that Chicago had right to the
water from the Great Lakes for it's
sewage disposal under treaty with
Canada of some years ago, and that
the water level of the lakes had been
lowered more through other sources
than that of Chicago's diverging of
the water. Mr.. Bede argued that in
order to get this deep waterway
through it is necessary to have the
friendship of Chicago and many other
places and it is poor diplomacy to
call them thieves. MIR. Bede was a
member of Congress about twentP
years ago when the treaty was made
granting Chicago it's right, as he
states, to the water. 1t will be in
teresting to watch the outcome of the
controversy between Mr.. Bede and
others. Mr.. Bede is hard worker
with lots of pluck and tact.

j. SORENSEN PASSES
TO GREAT BEYOND
AskOv Farmer and Pioneer Dies
Following Operation for Goiter
and ) Other Complications
Funeral Held Yesterday.

The death of Jeppe Sorensen, Askov
farmer, So, at the Fairview hospital,
Minneapolis, Sunday afternoon, fol-
lowing an operation for goiter and
other complications, came as shock
to the community, although it was
known that he had not been in good
health for number of years.
Mr.. Sorensen went to the hospital
Nov. Fl and was operated the 26th-
last Friday. He apparently felt good
following the operation but Saturday
afternoon his condition grew worse.
His daughter, Sina, who was at the
bedside, called her mother Sunday
morning. Mrs. Sorensen left on the
forenoon train from Askov, arriving
at the hospital at O'Clock when his
condition was very serious. Mr..
Sorensen passed away at o'clock
that afternoon.
When Mr.. Sorensen went to the
hospital he was seeking relief from
various troubles. At the age of about
twenty-eight he lost the use of his
left lung, and he had labored since
under the handicap of only one lung
functioning. His heart was seriously
impaired by the collapsed lung and
toxic goiter which he had for years,
but which apparently caused him no
trouble until the past two or three
years. He also suffered from nephri-
tbs and very low blood pressure.
On account of the multiplicity of
his ailments medical and surgical
attendants proceeded with the utmost
care, performing the operation under
local anesthetic and removing only
half of the goiter, but in spite of
conservative methods it was of no
avail. Constant attendance by two
nurses and a physician with all avail
able stimulants known to science
failed when when the call came from
the Maker.

Alex Fraser, county commissioner
in St. Louis county, celebrated his
Saith birthday. the other day and
Judging by the picture in the daily
press he looks hale and hearty yet.
He has been county commissioner
since 1912 and came to Duluth in
1882. Serving as public official
up to the ripe age of "a, is some
thing very unusual. A man at that
age has certainly had the opportunity
for wide experience and with a
healthy body, clear mind, good ideals
and Righteousness in his system
should be a valuable asset to any
community. In speaking of his
friends, Mr.. Fraser says: "They are
worth more to me than to have a
millionaire's station, for life is a
thing that money cannot buy. That's
why / am happy today"

PROBABLY ENOUGH

Chauncey Peterson, a rather young
member of the Minnesota legislature
from Duluth, appears to be getting
a little mixed up in his sayings and
writings judging from what has ap-
peared in the Duluth Herald. Peter
son, before the city council, recently
made some statements in regard to
the Brooks-Coleman state law, stating
in effect that he thought there was
little chance of its repeal on account
Of practically the same membership
in the legislature as when the law
was enacted. His remarks we're re-
ported in the Herald and he came
back with an article telling what he
had said and not said, and still 1t APP

HAVE PREPARED FOR
GOLDEN RULE SUNDAY

December fifth has been set as the
International Golden Rule Sunday and
on that day money will be collected
in many parts of the world to aid
in charity work.
The committee for Askov consists
of Miss Anna Yngve, Miss Ida Miller,
Rev. o. H. Dyreborg, Supt. F. Clarey
Nielsen and Svend Petersen. This
committee met some time ago and
laid plans for collecting money here.
They decided to solicit funds by send
ing descriptive matter to as many
homes as possible through the school
children and otherwise. Under this
plan it is possible some homes have
been missed in such case, however,
the committee wishes to make it
clear that it is Intentional to reach
every home without expense. Dona-
tions may be sent in with the chill
dren when they attend Sunday school
Dec. S, money may also be sent with
the school children Monday, Dec. 6,
and further donations may be left at
the post office or bank.
A letter sent out by President CAL
vim Coolidge from the White House
to the local committee, reads in part
as follows: 81 regard International
Golden Rule Sunday as movement
of much Importance. Begun in an
attempt to care for the orphaned
children of Bible lands, it has been
extended to other countries. Practical
help is the best expression of friend
ship. The aid we may give out
of our abundance to those less for
tunately situated than we, should be
of great value in bringing about the
application of the Golden Rule to the
settlement of misunderstanding
among nations as well as among indi-
viduals. 1 hope the voluntary OBJ
servance of this day may become in
creasingly prevalent in America and
throughout the world"

in the Askov community when the
family moved here in 1908.
Mr.. Sorensen was an Industrious
man, righteous and friendly. AS the
pioneers usually are he was firm and
quite set in his ways. He was the
type who could be counted on when
a friend or neighbor needed help
ing hand. A member of the local
school board for a number of years,
he took an active interest in public
affairs, having also held other offices
of trust.
AS before stated Mr.. Sorensen had
not been in good health for some
years and when his oldest son, Carl
e. Sorensen, died a few months ago,
it was a severe stroke to him and he
appeared to fail more rapidly there
after The grief undoubtedly had a
bearing on his health. Surviving are
his wife and two daughters, Sina and
Mrs. Harold Christensen (Margrethe) /;
and three sons, Albert, Evald, and
Sigvard. One brother, X. s. Sorensen.
Askov, survives; three brothers, Soren,
Hans, and Jens, and one sister, Sina,
having preceded him to the Great
Beyond. Four sisters also survive.
They are: Mrs. Marguerite Petersen,
Brayton, Nebr; Mrs. N. C. Petersen,
st. Edwards, Nebr; Mrs. Slime Jorgen-
sen, Minneapolis; and Mrs. N. M.
Nielsen. Lindsay, Nebr. His father
died about Is years ago and his aged
mother two or three years ago. Both
were laid to rest in the local ceme-
terry.
Funeral services were conducted
from the local Danish Lutheran
church yesterday afternoon, Rev. o.
H. Dyreborg officiating. The pail
bearers were N. P. Nedegaard, A. C.
Jorgensen, Niels Brus, Carl Miller,
Rasmus Petersen, and F. Clarey
Nielsen. The body was given it's
final resting place at the local ceme-
terry.
Sympathy is extended to the be-
reaved relatives in the loss of a good
husband, father, and brother.
