A Tip For Policemen


Cats may look at kings, but school girls may not
laugh at cop without penalty Of cruel steel bars.
Such seems the moral in the case of young Ben
jamina Calibeaux of Brooklyn, who laughed her
grlish laughter when Patroman Conlon tried to
catch boy on bicycle and couldn't.
The stalwart guardian Of the law showed the
young lady he did! He arrested her for "disordcrly
conduct"
The little story Of the school girl and the cop is
just another sample Of this divine right Of kings
sumed by all too many Of nations policemen
No type Of man is more necessary to nation,
none more respected than the right sort of cop But
by right sort" we not those minions Of
the law who, accoutercd in the police blue, grow as
pompous as poutcr pigeons and WELD their clubs on
one and sundry, who grow especially vicious if their
mighty selves not shown due obcisance, who yell

Editorial Comment
Grain Bought From Farmers
Grand Forks Hcrald)


The publication Of letters from grain growers in
several sections Of the state testifyng that they
have sold wheat in car, lots to the state mill and
elevator and that their experience IN such sales has
been entirely satisfactory ought I'd set at rest float
ing that the state institution does not buy
direct from farmers. The fact is that the nstitu-
ton does buy direct from farmers, not only in car
lots but in wagon lots. There has been installed
at the plant special equipment for handling wagon
lots SO that farmers within driving distance can
unload conveniently.
1t is possible that the impression that the state
concern does not deal direct with farmers may have
grown out Of the fact that large purchases have
been made from through elevators, and persons
whose Imagination was greater than their capacity
for accuracy may have concluded off-hand that
only such purchases were made
The mill does buy direct from farmers. When
the supply from this source is not adequate, which
it is not as a rule purchases made from what
ever other sources are available.
