TOWN TALK

This is the first time Herbert Hoover has
ever run for office. The boy certainly aims
high for beginner.
The present presidential campaign shows
that the United States has two great lacks. The
first of these is that her tolerance doesn't toler-
ate; the second that her prohibition doesn't pro-
hibit
From what the board of investigation is re-
ported to have found in the Mississippi River
between St. Paul and Lake City the mud of the
grand old Pa of Waters has just about all the
qualification which make it fit for use in po-
litical campaign.
Country financers" who think they know
how to play the stock market some 1000 miles
from Wall Street, paying pretty penny to
get an education. new kind of swinde has
been uncovered by government operators. So
called brokers" are issuing advice on stock to
the yokels and are reaping a golden harvest by
recommending fake stocks which they trade at
tremendous figures. The safest and best way
is to deal in securities right at honest Peter
Herald.
When you see one of those iron-plated cars
standing in front of Twin City bank, and two
or three boys with "gats" on their hips stand
ing around nonchalently in the immediate neigh
borhood it appears to you that any money in
that car would be entirely safe. But given q
few tear-gas bombs, few men who are desper-
ate and physically fearless (also mentally cum
ning) and you have hold-up just about as easy
and quite as spectacular as the stage coach trag-
edies in 40. Crime increases in ingenuity Just
as rapidly as protection does-perhaps little
more rapidly.

FOR OR AGAINST THE WATERWAY.

c. c. Mccarthy an attorney of Grand Rapids
and Democratic leader in that Minnesota city,
declines appointment as member of the Demo-
cratic district committee, because he "cannot
how any Minnesotan, no matter what his politics
may be- can vote for Mr.. Smith for President of
the United States"
In his letter justfying his desertion from
the Democratic ranks Mr.. Mccarthy argues that
the building of the st. Lawrence waterway and
the Mississippi waterway would in a large meas
ure solve the agricultural problem confronting
the middle west and then goes on to say:
Alfred E. Smith is now and always
has been actually, openly, and vigor-
ously opposed to the st. Lawrence
waterway to the He has been
identified with the fight made by the
city of New York against that project.
AS governor of New York he has thrown
the power of the state government
against that project. 1 will not vote to
make that man President, thereby CIV
ing him the power to change the atti-
tude of the administration Of this gov
eminent respects that great project.
AS President he could absolutely block
it for many years. He might perhaps
be able to keep the United State out of
it forever.
1t seems to The News Tribune that Mr.. Nc
Carthy has here stated the paramount reason why
people of the northwest, and particularly people
at the Head Of the Lakes, should support Hoover
rather than Governor Smith
The st. Lawrence waterway is a Head
of the Lakes project. While, as Mr.. Mccarthy
argues, it will be of immense benefit to the whole
middle west and northwest, enabling the farmer
to get better price for his grain the greatest
benefciaries will be Duluth Superior and this
surrounding region.
From the standpoint of this region the water
way is the most important issue in the coming
election. 1t is important that for the people
of this region it should outweigh every other
consideration.
And by strange coincidence the Republican
party has nominated the foremost champion of
the st. Lawrence waterway while the Demo-
Gratis have picked the leader of the opposition to
that project.
In the November election the people of this
region will not be voting for Hoover Smith,
they will be voting for against the waterway.
For that is the real issue of this campaign
so far as this region is concerned-Duluth News
Tribune.

a report on several questions asked him by tn
Minnesota reforestation commission and here i
part of what he told them:
"Please do not confuse manage
ment of state-owned timber lands with
the management of the privately owned
timber lands, which constitute nine
tenths of our forest area. Do not mis-
take logging operations on private lands
over which the auditor has no con-
troll for operations on state lands over
which he has jurisdiction. When you
listen to the story of the silent stumps,"
make certain those stumps are on state
lands and were introduced into the mar
ratiye merely to obscure or deceive;
that the period of time covered by the
tale is from 1921 to date-the term of
the present auditor-and not for years
and for logging operations prior to his
birth.
THE present organization in charge of
state lands has secured for state-owned
timber the highest prices ever received
by the state for its timber, the highest
prices ever received by any state for sim
liar timber and the highest prices paid
anywhere at any time by northwest tim

The Federal Trade Commission

agency is making merry over its ex-
