Those dependent upon patronage of
the present regime, especially if an
occupant of high office, are begin
ming to consider ways and means of a
graceful and profitable exit. 1t is
predicted that designations will soon
be presented when doubt as to Mr..
Coolidge's intentions is finally dissi-
pated. Of course, it is customary
for the lesser fry to remain at their
posts until their retirement is forced
by a new administration. But, the
real cream of the patronage are suf-
ficfently wise to watch the writing on
the wall.

Senators have returned to town in
order to present their personal argu-

the Budget Bureau. The estimates
are being whipped into shape for the
consideration of the House Appropria-

hooves the Senators to play their best
cards if the needs of their state are
to be covered adequately in recon-
mendations of the budget officers.

Congress will be called upon to ex-

be expected with an election ap-

BODY OF ROCK CREEK
WOMAN is FOUND
Mrs. John BergstrOm, Farmer
Woman, Was Lost Since May
19.-Ring and Overall Jacket
Furnish Clue for Identity.

The body of Mrs. Rebecca Berg
strom, wife of John Bergstrom, who
disappeared from her home, east of
Rock Greek, on May 10th, was found
last Thursday afternoon. The dis
covery was made by two boys who
stroms disappearance was of such ma
ture that her husband and friends
thought that she had gone away to
visit relatives On the evening of
May 10th, Mrs. Bergstrom was at
home with her husband until Mr..
Bergstrom retired for the night.
Nothing unusual was suspected until
morning when Mr.. Bergstrom discov-
cred that his wife mad left home with
out going to bed. He Immediately
started search and notified the sheriff
and village policeman at Pine City.
A posse of neighbors also searched the
country for some distance around the
farm home but failed to find her. A
report that she had been seen near
the Rock Creek depot led many to
believe that she had taken the night
train to visit relatives in Wisconsin.
as she had done on a previous &C.
casion without notifying her husband.
Evidently, she had wandered about
during the night in a fit of despond-
ency, and had fallen in the water
which covered the place where she
was found. A ring and overall
jacket with brass buttons furnished
the clues which led to the indentifi-
cation of the body by Coroner w. p.
Gottry who was called when the body
was found.
Mrs. Bergstrom was born in Wiscon-
sin, June 2, 1881, her maiden name
being Rebecca johnson. She was
married to John Bergstrom in 1901
and they moved to Rock Greek about
five and one half years ago.

WASHINGTON Letter
By " PDaley

Washington. Aug. 10.-Skepticism
and hope go hand in hand in Wash
ington political circles these days.
Doubt is expressed as to the sincerity
of Calvin Coolidge in a public an
nouncement eliminating himself as a
candidate in 1923 for the Republican
nomination for the Presidency. Hope
is manifested among those who are
considered by themselves or their
friends as logical contenders for the
honor There is the usual proneness
to speculation with the result that the
whole matter is obviously in an un-
settled condition.
1t is foregone conclusion that the
disputes as to Mr.. Coolidge's real
meaning of the cryptic message will
rage for months. Ten months must
elapse before the Republican conven-
ton is called and the aspirations OF
men settled. The President may find
it necessary to draft a more definite
message to the people and the party
Assuming that he means what he
says and the choose is not politi-
cal trick, the ''possibilities" of the
G. o. P. are taking cognizance of the
changeful fates.
Already, publicity bureaus are be-
ing organized here and at strategic
political centers for the purpose OF
putting the many candidates beyond
the talking stage and into the public
eye. In other words, the managers
and well-wishers of various "hopes'
of the party are going abroad in the
land attempting to corral the votes
of state delegations. Delegates to
party conventions are ordinarily Sc
lected from the ranks of the local or
CARNATIONS and their identity is fair
ly we'll established before the eau
Gus. You will undoubtedly note in
creased activity in your own bailiwick
now as the county chairman talks it
over with the henchmen from the
various towns. .. ..
While nothing has been mentioned,
it is apparent that If Mr.. Coolidge
is really stepping down after this
term, his friend William M Butler
will find his position as chairman OF
the Republican National COMMITTEES
unstable. Everybody knows he holds
his job solely by the grace and good
will of his distinguished patron, that
the leaders are patiently awaiting an
opportunity to shove Mr.. Butler over
board The antagonism developed
by his methods at the last convention
in Cleveland has been suppressed
out of respect to the President, but
observers here know that political
hates will flame anew within few
weeks. A complete reorganization
of the two major political parties is
due.
While this Coolidge matter is up
permost in the minds of the voting
public, it might be we'll to note few
factors Ringing on his candidacy

WILL DEDICATE PINE
CITY CHURCH SUNDAY
Methodist Congregation Formed
in 1SS7.-First Building Erect
ed i'm 1SSS.-New Building
Started Last April at Cost of
About $4,000.

Dedication services for the new
Methodist church in Pine City will
take place next Sunday, August IA.
There will be three services held
during the day with Bishop Charles
Edward Locke preaching in the morn
ing and Reverend Roy L. Smith
preaching in the afternoon. In the
evening Doctor Frank w. Harron,
superintendent of the Minneapolis
district, will preach.
The formal dedication of the
church will take place on Sunday af-
ternoon, the services beginning at 3
O'Clock. This service will be in
charge of Bishop Locke who will
formally dedicate the church. The
work of building the church started
in April and has proceeded according
to schedule, except that some delay
has occurred in getting the mill work.
The new building is a brick and tile
construction built to accommodate a
congregation of from three to Eve
hundred. 1t is of modern architec-
ture and conveniently arranged to
care for large Sunday school and
bible class instruction. In the
kitchen, the Ladies' Aid will have a
we'll equipped department for serving
banquets and luncheons, and the
basement will have large. play rooms
for the children and young folks.
The church was organized in Feb
urary, 1887, under the leadership of
Richard N. Avison. At that time
there were but four members, namely,
Walter P. Gottry, Mrs. M. Warner,
Mrs. Jennie Chubb and Miss Lila
Stephan. Rev. Avison was in charge
until October 1887, when the charge
was left unsupplied for several
months. In October, 1888, S. w.
Simonds was appointed pastor and it
was under his passionate that the first
building was erected at cost Of
S1,556.OO. The early church went
through many struggles but its men,
bership increased steadily, and as the
years went by the old building was
outgrown, especially in the line of
Sunday school room since this feature
of the church has flourished under
the faithful leadership of A. w. Piper.
The first building served for thirty
nine years with a few alterations, but
on April Is, 1927, it was wrecked and
a new beautiful edifice erected on the
same spot.
