Editorial Comment
Governor Sorlie Fights Back
Duluth Herald)

For months North Dakota has buzzed with
charges and countercharges centering around
the management of the state mill and elevator
at Grand Forks. Two Investigations of the
project, one by state senate committee and
the other by an auditing concern. are alleged
to reveal that the mill lost sums of money run.
ming into the thousands of dollars by deals with
firms that had purchased flour below the North
Dakota sales price, and mill feed below the To-
cal market 1t was also charged that the mill
had purchased grain from a Minneapolis firm
at prices above the market price. In fact, all
sorts Of peculiar deals are alleged to have been
resorted to to keep the mill going, while out
side of this is the admitted fact that the insti-
tuition has been a losing proposition from the
beginning. and has cost the taxpayers several
hundred thousand dollars. And because it has
been one of Governor Sorlie's favorite projects
and the responsibility for it's management has
been largely his in the popular mind, the gov
ernor has been getting most Of the blame.
But Governor Sorlie is a bold and resource.
full politician. Adopting the theory that there
are times when the best defense is attack, he
has decided to face the issue by calling spe-
cial session of the legislature-and hostile
legislature at that. AS at present constituted
the independents, or anti-Sorlie faction, con-
troll the house by seven votes and the senate
by one.
The governors alibi or what he expects to
gain is not clear yet, because he is keeping his
plans TO himself, but an inkling of what it
might be is disclosed by the fact that the state
industrial commission, nominally in charge Of
the mill, is made up of two Independents and
one Nonpartisan. The Independents see de.
termined effort to shift the responsibility for
the fiasco in state ownership on them, but they
also have many alibis, as the last legislature
gave the governor practically free hand in
running the MILL
In any event, the session is certain to be a
lively one. The governor is fighter of abil-
ity and is faced by an influential and deter
mined faction that will use every means at its
command to bring out the facts.

Home. Sweet Home

In London, 1O4 years ago. the opera, THE
Maid OF Milan" was sung and I; classic given
to the world. That was Home, Sweet Home,
and it never will perish.
Now we hear that the home of John Howard
Payne, its author in Easthampton. L. l.. is to
be preserved Taxpayers of the village voted
yes on a $4,000 expenditure to save the house
and make it museum for mementoes Of Payne
and other American antiquities of that region
No one remembers the opera in which the
song was introduced. The song, expressing
old but constant sentiment. goes on and on /,
is fitting that its author be honored as the
man who best expressed it.

4. Raise and lower both legs to-
gcther-keeping knees stiff and toes
pointed downward.
5. Raise right leg to right angle
with body, keeping the toes pointed
downward-then change position OF
right and left legs vigorously, with
out allowing the heels to touch the

ing this exercise.
Besides these exercises, long
walks should be taken each
day. gradually increasing the walks
until from five to ten miles
daily are taken, up to the very day
before delivery Is expected. If this
is done, the muscular power will be
80 great in the muscles used that the
periodic pains will seem more like
muscular contractions with not nee
essarily any pain at all. 1t may
seem hard to believe this, but /
have seen hundreds 60 through this
surprising experience who have fol-
lowed these directions carefully.
Questions and Answers
QUESTION: c. B. asks: "What
is > good diet for an afemic per.
ANSWER: The first thing to
remember is that an anemic patient
must not be stuffed with an excess
Of food. At the start of treatment
q fruit diet will do more than any
other diet to bring the blood back
to normal. After the fruit diet, all
meals should be carefully balanced,
using q reasonable amount Of all the
different food substances. AS soon
as the toxemia which produces
anemia is thrown out Of the sys-
TEN, the body will be able to get the
benefit Of any good food.
QUESTION:: M. P. writes: "My
meals are mostly milk and fruit, or
a protein and vegetable. am afraid
I do not get enough starch. Does
the body require a definite amount
Of starch, and will | suffer on ac-
count Of the small quantity ] take
in?"
ANSWER: do not believe it is
necessary to use any highly starchy
foods at all in the diet. Of course,
there is always a small amount
found in the non-starchy vegetables.
Carnivorous animals get along very
well without starch and sugar, and
under certain forced circumstances
men have lived for years under prac-
tically an exclusive meat diet. Don't
worry about not getting enough
starch.

Some Of the doctors tell US it can
not be cured. Would appreciate
your advice on same"
ANSWER: The cause is due
either to hardening Of the arteries
or arterial tension, and most cases
can be cured by diet alone. If you
will send your name and address |
will be glad to forward additional
information on this subject.

2-YEAR-OLD BOY
RUN OVER BY TRAIN
Louis Wenslof Loses Right
Limb Below Knee Mon
day Forenoon
WASPLAYING ON TRACK
Had Attempted to Follow
Older Companions Who
Were Fishing Nearby

Louis Wensloff, two year old
son of Mr.. and Mrs. Oscar Wens-
loft of this city was the victim of
a serious railroad accident Mon
day noon about 1 80 o'clock when
he was struck by westbound
freight train on the Northern Pa
cific branch.
The lad was playing with some
older children about the home
which borders the railroad right of
way near the corner of Second
and Maple streets. When the 9th
ers conceived the idea to go fish
ing they crossed the tracks to the
lake shore, Louis following several
PAGES behind them unnoticed. When
he reached the tracks he paused
for a time sitting on the end of a
tie. The west bound freight few
blocks away was steaming up to
pull out of town. When the child
was noticed the engineer was UNI
able to bring the train to hault
before striking it. The wheels of a
box car which was being pushed
ahead of the locomotive struck the
lad passing over his left limb be-
low the knee mangling it so badly
that amputation of the member
just below the knee was necessary.
The child was taken to the City
hospital Immediately following the
accident where the wounds were
dressed. At this writing he is rest
ing as easy as can be expected and
it is predicted by the attending
physician that he will recover.

NASTY AUTOMOBILE
COLLISION SAT. EVE.
Chevrolet and Ford, Loaded
With Passengers, Tangle
On Highway Four
GIRL PAINFULLY HURT
Buggy Without Tail Light
Confuses Driver-Cars
Demolished

A serious auto accident occurred
Saturday evening between 9 and
10 O'Clock on Highway No. about
a quarter of a mile north of the
junction of A and %, three miles
north of Sank Centre when Leon
ard Avelsgard driving Ford
touring car and accompanied by
six companions met in head on
collision with a Chevrolet touring
car driven by Guy Gazetty of
Ward Springs.
The Ford was travelling north on
the highway and was passing a
horse and buggy when the Chew
rolet approached. The headlight
of the Ford affected the vision of
the driver of the other car and he
was unable to see the buggy which
displayed no tail light, until it was
too late to come to stop. He was
forced to think rapidly, there was
one of a few things to do, turn
over the embankment, collide with
the horse and buggy or attempt to
pass between the buggy and the
oncoming car. He tried the latter
but failed. The front wheels of
the cars interlocked causing them
to be shattered to splinters throw
ing the cars several yards. The
Chevrolet was thrown to the right
of the road and over the embank-
ment head foremost. The occupants
were uninjured.
The Ford which turned over sew
eral times rested on the edge of
the grade at the other side of the
highway. The occupants were
thrown from the car all quite
badly bruised and shaken up.
Laura McCumber seven years old,
was the most severely injured, SUI
staining a deep wound over her
right eye when she was thrown
through the windshield to the
ground, lighting on her head, lac
Grating the side of her face. She
was taken to the hospital immed-
lately after the accident where the
wounds were dressed. At this
writing the participants of the ac-
-cident receiving minor injuries are
resting as easy as can be expected.
