The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1928-06-06

KEDWOOD FALLS, MINNESl
This was blue week for the Small Town
Talker. There no editorial column in the
Springfield Advance. We suspect that man
Ericsson went a-fishin' and forgot to get back in
time.
Aunt Het the other day uncovered to the
public gaze the worlds meanest woman when she
said "Bell smiles sweet and pretends she's got
all over bein' mad at me. But she saw my petit
coat showing at the post office the other day and
never told me-"
| We call attention to feature article now an.
pearng in the Gazette each week. It is a series
of articles on the subject "The Children's Hertz
age" by John S. Pardee. 1t deals with the es
Establishment and development of the state school
fund and will run in the paper for several weeks
The subject is reliable and may be clipped for
reference by those interested.
When President Coolidge vetoed the McNafy-
Haugen bill every candidate for office in Min
nesota who was interviewed, expressed regret 7"
They should have rejoiced and said so. If the
president had signed the BILL and they would
have had to share their portion of the wrath TO
come, they would have regretted that the earth
didn't open and swallow them up before thew
ever gave the semblance of approval to the absurd
thing.-Morris Tribune.
We are told that the cost of living has now
reached its lowest point since the war; AS most
of US face the first-of-the month bills we still
wonder how we have managed to live through
anything worse. 1t all depends upon what is
meant by Giving" We are ready to concede that
clothing is less expensive than it has been for a
considerable period, but food materials of quail
ity are just about expensive as they have
ever been If one buys the cheaper quality in
most food it proves to be false economy-and
in the long run the grocery and meat bills re-
mains about as they have been
Sam Hailset, Heinie Mitchell, H. c.
Hotaling and Herman Roe are reported
attending the National Editorial as
ISOLATION convention in Memphis this
week. The boys are expected to re-
port in full at the summer meeting of
the Northern association on the boat
next month.-Duluth Herald.
Sam and Herb and Herman may report "in
full" although we can hardly conceive of those
in public in that condition. But all Heinie will
do will be to tell all the stories he heard in the
smoking rooms-we've heard Heinie give con-
vention reports before. They are interesting but
not instructive.
The hardest thing in the world to define,
levidently, is that little word "disloyalty." At
least Mayor Leach of Minneapolis has had twen-
fv-n nj NV Jof;,, H.
word since he used it as the reason for his dis
missal of Chief of Police Brunskill Up to date
he has not given a satisfactory definition of it.
We'd think smart enough to run a big
village like Minneapolis and to be responsible for
all the crime that is committed there in the fu-
ture, as Leach says he will be-well, we'd Just
naturally suppose such a man would be clever
enough to tell what he meant by the use of
so important word. But then, for that mat
ter, we'd think he would have been clever enough
not to have used it in the first place.

Edgar Markham, Washington, correspondent
for the st. Paul Pioneer Press says:
Congressman C1ague, chairman of
the Minnesota delegation, objected when
an effort was made to put through a
Pennsylvania bill for the relief of war
time employees of the Bethlehem Steel
corporation. He told proponents of the
legislation that he would be glad to
permit consideration of the bill if an
amendment were added to take care of
the claims of several thousand wartime
employees of Minnesota steel companies
who failed to get wages awarded to them
by the United States War Labor board
Congressman Andersen sponsored bill
in the past two Congresses for relief of
the Minnesotans but the House claims
committee never had ordered favorable /.
