BOHEMIAN PRIDE
(The Minneapolis JournaD

From Calmar through Spillville,
Conover and CrescO, all in Iowa, and
northward to Preston. in that beauti-
full scenic region that is southeastern
Minnesota, runs a highway that has
just been named Antonin DvOrak
Highway Largely at the prompting
of Spillville, this is to honor the fam
Gus Bohemian whose Humoresque was
composed while he lived in that vii
lage years ago. = 1t is a community
largely made up of DvOrak's fellow
countrymen and their descendants
countrymen for years without cOun-
try, and even now without one of the
old name, Bohemia, for Czechoslovak-
ia has displaced it.
This hOnoring of one of their race
is characteristic of Bohemians. Here
and there over the Northwest are
many communities or countrysides
like Spillville, mainly populated by
people of that racial strain. Few, it
any, of these could boast, as does Spill
vile, of having given to the world
so many leaders-college professors,
a college president, a noted band
master, a minister to Japan, and
others But many son of such mi
grants from Bohemia has made his
mark in the world, and given his peo-
pie reason to be proud of him.
Wherever there is a Bohemian col
ony in Minnesota, its people are real
factors in the upbuilding Of the State.

Bad will be the day for every man
when he becomes absolutely contented
with the life that he is living, with
the thoughts that he is thinking, with
the deeds that he is doing, where
there is not forever beating at the
doors of his soul some great desire
to do something larger, which he
knows that he was meant and made to
do because he is still, in spite of all,
the child of God-Phillip Brooks.

Surely, we all want the tariff bill
passed as quickly as we can have it.
But when it is passed it should be
somewhere near right and not make
shift The Northwest senators and
representatives have had a few little
things to contend with down there in
Washington that had to be straight
ened out first-for instance the Grun-
dys, Eyansons, Binghams, etc. Some
work and get nearer to the root of
things before matters can be i'm
proved. Waiting little longer for a
good tariff bill is better than to ac-
cept a mere excuse for one.

We dare say there is hardly a per-

or that he was at least rich. There
also are very few people, when they

worries, who do not want more. Many

themselves back into poverty. Or

When a man gets out of school and
into business he finds out pretty soon
that football isn't so important as it
looked during his school days. His
customer wants service and doesn't
care whether he gets it from the man
who thrilled the fans with a 6O-yard
run or the timid soul who sold candy
bars at the game and looked with awe

tentatively, the burden of guilt for
the murder of Ella May Virgins.
1T found none against whom the
state may proceed in criminal action
for the kidnapping and the flogging
of organizers of the textile union that
claimed Ella Mays devotion.
I'm stern rebuke to the county
coroner and to Judge Thomas j. Shaw
of the Superior Court, who were fool
hardy enough to think that their in
ging had revealed 16 persons against
whom there was probable cause for
action, the grand jury returned not
true bill in each case.

CASTOR expected. Nobody ought to

as there ought to be, compulsion from

Not a true bill?
Castor may think it is through
with Ella May Virgins. The state
of North Carolina may think it is
through with her. But they aren't.
indictments were returned yester
day that are beyond the power of any
CASTOR grand jury to revoke unless it
chooses to revoke it's own action and
find the slayers of Ella May Virgins.
These are true bills and more. They
stand with the finality of conviction
and sentence in the tribunal Of public
opinion.
County Stands Indicted.
Castor county in the eyes of fair
minded, justice-loving intelligent
people the world over is indicted as
a county in which one Ella May more
or less doesn't matter and in which
justice is the harlot of hate and pre-
JUDGE and hysteria and industrial
wrong.
North Carolina is indicted and con-
demned as a state that is too busy
Dragging about it's own progress to
worry about fool woman who was
shot down by a mob because she for
got which side of her bread was but
tered.
Castor county and North Carolina
can endure the scorn and contempt
of the world. What they may not
endure so easily is the homegrown
fruit of dragon teeth sown yesterday.
Encourages Revolution.
"A half dozen wild-eyed Commun
lists came preaching that all capital
is the brutal. relentless enemy of all
labor, that the organized state with
it's system of law and justice is the
chief tool of capitalism. Some of us
went crazy with fear.
What are we going to do if great
part of our population, over-wOrked
underpaid and underprivileged folks
of little learning, little imagination
but good memory for wrongs, recalling
the striking contrast of state action in
CASTOR county, conclude that these
wild-eyed radicals were right?
What is the state going to do about
it then?
More important, what is the state
going to do about it now"

The word tariff" originated from
the name of the town, Tarifa, on
the African coast where the Algerian
pirates levied tribute on passing
vessels. The word is very appropri-

people of the United States.-Mille
