THE SPIRIT OF THE WEST

When a dilapidated covered wagon
ratified down Dakota avenue in Wah-
peton last week, drawn by jaded
team driven by a patriarch whose
faithful wife sat beside him as street
crowds grinned and older generations
recalled the covered wagon days,

vehicle and the aged pair saw some
thing that the superficial observer
missed. - 1t was "the spirit of the

Covered wagon days are gone for

The time is coming, and it is ap-
preaching rapidly, when any public
servant who violates the liquor laws
will be in disrepute. If there is one
place where law should be respected
it is in the public service. Those
who lift up the right hand and swear
to support the constitution and obey
the laws of the state or nation cannot
violate these obligations without de-
moralizing and degrading themselves.
Prohibition laws are laws of the land.
For a legislator to violate. them, is
a serious wrong. For a judge to
drink and the next day sentence a
bootlegger is an Inconsistency which
if carried to it's normal conclusion
would tear down our whole system
of law and justice. The public SER
want who violates the law, sets an
example which encourages the senti.
ment for anarchy.

storms. Then the battle for existence
as the business of empire building
began in earnest on the part of small
and ill-equipped units scattered over
a wide frontier.
1t is nearly fifty years since the
last of the covered wagons of pioneer
days trekked down what now is Da-
kota avenue.
Industry has had its reward Where
the sod shanty stood or in an even
better location there Is a comfortable
farm home and barn. Everywhere
about it is evidence of the product
iveness of rich country.
The young folks take it for granted.
But it is doubtful If in their lives
they will ever know the simple joys
or relish any joy so keenly as did
their grandmothers and grandfathers
the freedom of the open trails of COW
cred wagon days, despite their toll
and vicissitude.
"The spirit of the West" made this
great land. 1t still lives, but it is
directed to undertakings quite differ
ent from those of covered wagon days.
It's restless urge moved the old coup

IMPORTANCE OF PUBLIC
RECORDS

There is usually day of reckoning
Public records may be gotten away
with in a haphazard manner, especi-
ally in smaller governmental divisions
for while, but sooner or later there
will be an accounting. The village
of Moose Lake is experiencing such
a condition now. When preference
claim was filed with the state banking
department for village funds deposited
in a closed Moose Lake bank it could
not be allowed on account of the con-
dition of the village books. The fol
lowing story regarding it appeared in
the Minneapolis Journal:
Severe criticism of the way in
which reports and finances of the
village of Moose Lake, Mimi,
were handled was made today by
Garfield w. Brown, state public
examiner, in his report of an
audit of village finances made at
the request of the Moose Lake
council.
1.-THE >treasurer's records" Mr..
Browns report says, "are incom-
plete and inaccurate. Moneys
have been received which have
not been entered but were depos-
tied in the bank. Entries have
been made of receipts which
were not deposited, and collections
have been made which were nei-
Their Endorsed on his books nor de-
posted in the bank.
The village of Moose Lake filed
claim for preference with the
state banking department on its
funds which were in the Far
mers State Bank of Moose Lake,
closed by the state banking de-
partment Dec. 16, 1925. The
banking department rejected the
preference claim, handling the
account with that of other Gre
ditors.

Space is given to Editor Cravens'
entire article that our readers may
get his viewpoint.
Just how much Europeans hate
America is likely matter of con-
lecture. There is no tabulated re-
port on it. 1t has been reported that
American tourists have not been
treated as cordially as they had de-
sired in France and perhaps other
places. Who knows what is back
of it? If they were snobbish they
likely deserved the treatment. Per-
haps a case of some young smart
alecky college sports who would have
received the same treatment right
here in America. If it is true that
Germany is showing the statement,
eve lost this time but will win the
next time, it is something that might
lust as we'll be kept within the bounds
of Germany. If they are foolish
enough to work up that blood-thirst
patriotism in their children and
youth let them go to it, we cannot
stop it. But by spreading it in
America we are not kindling love for
the Germans.
This putting nation against nation
| is not as it should be. The common
| people of one country do not sit UP
nights hating the common people OF
another country. Ammunition man
| ufacturers and others interested are
the ones who are kindling the fires
of hate. A third party can Otter
cause friction which did not exist
If we are constantly in danger
there is much logic in the statement
of Editor Cravens that the factories
for making war materials must bt
/ kept functioning so that when the
emergency arrives they are prepared
to do their work efficiently. Man.
authorities tell us that the. next wa
will be in the air. If that is thu
case there will not be much use fol
/ the artillery equipment, the BIZ
guns, etc. So far as the soldiers ar
concerned, Uncle Sam has never beer
in need when the call has been sen
out. The Americans get into shap
quickly when it means business.

TALKS RIGHT UP

Lucky for Arthur Brisbane that he
did not make the following statement
in the war days:
"The Nicaragua foolishness has had
publicity enough to prevent harm.
Gentlemen pulling strings that move
our government may even fail to get
what they want. Publicity is as bad
for international crookedness as sun
light for CHAMBERS.
"Will somebody answer this?
''Why does this powerful nation in
trude upon a weaker nation, occupy
ing it's ports, giving orders to its gov
eminent, when under exactly the same
conditions it would not dream of
meddling with powerful nation like
Russia, Japan, or Britain?
''Uncle Sam, once advertised as too
proud to fight should be too proud
to play the bully"

smoking in twilight reverie they were
days of romance. Often they turn the
book of life to the page of that day,
for there was happiness in the restless
urge of youth that sent strong men
and women ON the western tricks to
develop a vast new land of splendid
resources.
Never-to-be-forgotten days were COW
cred wagon days. There was the long
winter of planning in the old home
and the talks about the fireside about
the new land far away where the
pioneer had decided to cast his lot.
There was making of OK yokes, and
bows and wagon gear, selection of
the meager tools that the pioneer
needed, attention to the old long-bar-
relied rifle, prodigious sewing ON
all sorts of garments and the wagon
top by the women and then came the
day when nature was awakening, the
birds were returning, and there were
good-bys to the home folks and the
long trail ahead.
Slung to the wagon was the broad.
beamed breaking pillow. In the back
of the wagon was motley assortment
of dunnage and the infallible spinning
wheel, sometimes the rough-hewn
homemade cradle for the baby, the
scythe for making hay for the stock
| at watering places, the handy ak anG
| the rifle in the front seat.
Joyous days they were on that trir
when your grandfather trudged beside
the oxen in boots and homespun ani
your grandmother from the front seal
or place of vantage farther back ir
the box busted herself with knitting
and sewing.
| Days there were when Wind-driver
rain beat through the canvas top
when camps were made at desolatt
places, when men stood guard a
night over cattle and caravan to ware
off thieving and sometimes hostile
Indians, and thieving white renegades
of the pioneer trails as we'll.
Days there were when the prairie
| stretched away in level miles VERT
able carpet of Bagdad with its pink:
and tiger lilies, it's delicate wild roses
and princes feather and golden rod
Days when the patient oxen strained
anew in the yokes as the good, fresl
smell of running water came to then
and they waded knee deep uncontrol

Days when mother was in none to,

DON'T GO TOO FAST

The American received in the mai

postoffice four newspaper clipping
boosting the paving of public high
ways and landing the Highway De
partment for their efficiency. Thi
perhaps is done in an attempt II
turn us, because we have consistent,
opposed the further bonding of tn
state for the purpose of trunk roa'
building. Auto and gas taxes SHOULD
give enough revenue, and the as
sessments there should not be to-
high. Here are the clippings:
Coleraine News: 1t costs the
car user .00533 cents per mile in
tire wear on a concrete pavement,
while on the best graveled road
the cost is .O1O55 per mile. The
average saving per car in this
state is $31.65. But car users
would far rather pay this extra
burden on tires than add
couple of dollars on their license
payment to hurry the paving pro-
gram along. What economical
good souls we are.
Worthington Globe: The State
Highway department has been
having the time of its life buck
ing snow drifts in the attempt
to. keep the trunk roads clear
thus far this winter. Notwith-
standing great handicaps the de-
partment is doing fine work.
Winter set in early and the roads
were blocked all over the state,
but Mr.. Babcock and his crews
of efficient helpers have handled
the situation to the satisfaction
of the public.
Mankato Free Press: Carl East
wood remarks in the LIE Sueur
News-Herald: 1--WE all want good
roads, but when it comes to pay

Hibbing News: And another
thing: With concrete highways
the continual expenditure of pub
lie money for asphaltic oil, cal
cium chloride and other dust
laying dope isn't necessary. The
concrete highway is dustless,
clean, beautiful, and smooth all
the time.
Yes, some fellow handy with tn
lead pencil has figured out that
costs about twice as much in wear an
tear on tires to drive the auto Q
good graveled roads as it does o
pavement. Here is one thing, how
ever, that must not be overlooked
The initial expense and interest o
investment so great on pavemer
that the traffic there must be yer
heavy to maintain the low cost pc
mile of tire wear and tear. The nun
Der of additional miles in the stat
where it will pay to pave at thi
time likely is not very great. TIL
way some of those good road booster
sum it up, all that is necessary
do is to bond, bend, bond, pave, paw
pave, lean back, take rest, an
drive at half the expense.
Oh, had we only been born to vie
it with such cheerfulness and o.
timism! .-.E ..

This is a good time to judge if the
state legislature of two years ago did
the right thing when they repealed
the wide sleigh law. Now when we
have plenty of snow and farmers liv-
ing out four or five miles from town,
or farther, would like to make more
lively trip to town than can be made
with horses and sled it would be very
convenient for them if they could
run their autos on the same tracks
that have been made by the sled.
Naturally, when new law like the
wide sleigh law is passed it always
causes some inconvenience and
grumbling for while but that period
had about been run through, and then
the legislature repeats the law. Was
the demand for it's repeal greater
than for it's retention?

DO NOT WORSHIP MONEY

Americans are usually accused by
Europeans for being money lovers.
It is therefore refreshing to note
what well known Englishman has
to say on the subject. This article
is from the Dearborn Independent:
Mr.. G. X. Chesterton, the urbane
and highly intellectual Will Rogers
of modern English essayists, has been
SAYING some true and interesting
things about America. "Of all the
lies" says G. X. c., "the worst lie is
that the American worships money.
An American never talks of money in
the hushed and awestruck tone that
to financial matters"
Excellent! 1t might have seemed
in ill taste had an American said it.
But when an American has listened
all summer to courteous Englishmen
deplore the "materialism" and the
alleged money-loving propensities of
the Americans; and when an Ameri-
can has heard the French and Bel
gians and Italians and Germans say
the same thing, his large interna-
tional patience shows signs of strain,
and a word like that of Chesterton's
is refreshing.
For the truth is, England and the
Continental nations not only worship
money, but grovel before it. 1t en-
tiers into every marriage contract
which is not true in America; it de-
termines every social position-which
it not true in America; it controls
the entrance doors to universities and
colleges-Wh is not true in Ameri-
ca: it has the first and last say in
bestowals of title-more than it could
possibly do in America; and, in spite
of all the exposed scandals in Ameri-
can political life, the concealed cor
ruption due to money in European po-
litical life goes wider and deeper
Money rules life in Europe; it does
not rule life in America. -
Europeans worship money. The
chief difference between them and
the Americans is that Americans will
work for their money, while Euro
peans want only money that someone
else has earned. To earn ones own
money is rather honorable in Ameri-
ca, but it is very much off color in
Europe.
Europeans worship money and
therefore attribute to it greater power
than it possesses. They think money
will rehabilitate Europa super
stition that could exist only among
the most primitive mammon wor.
shippers. Americans know the lin.
itations of money; they know that
they can make money, and they know
that money cannot make them.

idea to the individual community
and it's retail business. For the
worker, more busin ess here means
more regular employment, a big
ger net inc ONE, a more satisfact-

consumer, it means better stocks
aid better service in local stores;
in time, lower prices through in

rayer, it means developing more
property to pay taxes and event

basic principle is that it helps
