There was nothing wrong with that little
plan of the Legislators to increase their own
salaries except that Governor Ted didn't like it
in fact it didn't fit in with his economical scheme
and he nipped the little plan in the bud with a
veto. He who votes last votes best-or at least
he votes with most finality.

The management of the Peoples Press at
Madeia, has decided to suspend publication and
close their doors because of lack of support and
interest shown by the community. The paper

There's really little need for one wasting
time in reading Elmer Gantry. All who have
read it, land many have) quite willing to
talk long and learnedly about it. William Allen
White rather discouraged US from reading it
when he wrote of it Seventy mine seductions in
one book is really quite few too many" We'd

The other day we read in the pa

around to protest against the
! behind him reading the titles aloud, and
| the man beat him over the head and
| stabbed him three times. There should
really be an open season on all movie
goers who read the titles aloud.-Cotton-

When such day dawns may we be there
to see-maybe even to help little!

There is really only one way to pull Mime
sofa out of the mud permanently and that is to
put the mud under and hold it down by good
heavy layer of concrete. The last two weeks of
soaking rains added to the snow, has proved that
gravel won't fill the bill, nor meet the needs of
heavy traffic C. NJ Babcock is as right as
tacks when he asks for money with which to
pave. Minnesota ranks nineteenth in 1927 paw
ing plans made by the states. She should be
much nearer the top than that Its travel versus

Mrs. Hannah Kemfer of Erhard, one of the
two women in the Minnesota House of Represen-
tatives, has done some mighty good work as
chairman of the Fish and Game Committee of
that body. Her theory is that "the sportsman,
be he a resident or not, should contribute to
the conservation of fish and game" The legis-
lation she has introduced aims to see that he
does just that. Some Of the proposed laws seem
ia bit stringent and restricting and are being
seriously opposed by the sort of poor sports who
want to "have their cake and eat it too," rs the
old proverb has it. But the seriousness of the
matter seems to demand such stringency in the
protective measures.

dislike getting out a special edition of the
Gazette. But President Vim Weber says there
shall be such an edition to help sell Minnesota
to the world at large-and what President Vim
says goes with us down to the last period of his
shortest sentence. All member papers of the
Minnesota Editorial Association are urged to get
out such editions the week of May 22nd and they
are all going to do it. What the world isn't told
about Minnesota viii be something that the world
shouldn't know-and there amt any such thing!
We are going to sneak few pages Of our special
to tell few things about Redwood County in
particular, so if you, Mr.. Reader, have anything
or know anything that exceeds all records, on
that viii help us to prove what we have always
contended, that Redwood County is the best com-
lty in the best state in the Union-why, If you
have any such, please just let rs have it. In
other words we are asking YOU to help US make
the special edition really count for something in
advertising section of Minnesota Mayb,
il all the folks in these parts would help BIZ
the job wouldn't seem 80 prodisious.
