STEAMSHIP AHOY!

The sun may rise and set out to the Westward but have it good authority that the Starr is with them always-long may she
 We refer of course to the s. s. Starr of the San Juan Fishing & Packing Company, the staunch little vessel which again made the homeport yesterday mark ing completion of the first voyage of the to the Bristol Bay We wildly recall the deep mourning felt herabout last winter when the Starr reported lost This followed by general jublation when the finally leaked thru that the Starr still upon the face of the deep and still able to battle thru the per ous of Uncle Sams farthest west
 Once in decade of pink moons town or section or whole country learn to love and faith full vessel and learn to call her by her first name and to dwell upon her comngs and gongs of the doings of the first born.
 Out to the Westward that sturdy vessel, the Starr holds such place in the affections of the far dWeers Thru the short days and the long stormy nights of the winter she is practically the sole touch with civilization The island bound inhabitants those the far penin sa upon her arrivals red letter days; her calls and departures of conversation at every fire side.
 And well might it be so, especially in the mind and heart of him who has traversed those ugly dangerous treacherous uncharted that pound the coasts of island and mainland in that vast stretch of country reach ing far out to the middle of the Pacific In 1t IS voyage for novice but in winter when bowling gales lash the most rugged coast of the world it demands brains skill and daring and beneath the feet sturdy craft fit 10 do utmost battle with the elements.
 That's why the people of Seward and the Westward have learned to love the Starr and pay homage to her navigators. Long may she wave

THE MOOSE THAT IS CHOKING

Robert Frothingham, author lecturer and world wide traveller says that Territorial government has Tammany skinned for being close corporation. That's true and Aaskans have deliberately let 1t be true Too busy attending to business and ways of making
 living have paid scant attention to the new crop of office seekers who live off The average voter never looks at the card until November It would be pt full if it not Imaginable that we so easily put our heads in the moose that is choking
 Doesn't appear to be much forethought or system cooperation among the herring fishermen to the Westward Herring appeared at various places early this spring with one hand to catch them Result habuters out of bait and had to send to Southeastern Alaska for help.
 It cannot be denied that every married person has taken at least desperate chance with fate.

QUESTIONABLE Received by Ga
zette Turned Over to City
ORGANIZATIONS for Answer
DEMANDS WATER SUPPLY
Company Is Making Survey of
Corn Belt for Additional.
Plant Locations

That Redwood Falls may some day
have manufacturing enterprise,
was Thoroughly discussed at the last
monday luncheon-meeting of the
Lions Club, held Monday, July 18th,
at Lauterbach's. The discussion re-
suited from a letter received by the
Gazette from the Cornstalk Products
Company of New York, who with a
factory at Danville, Illinois, has been
manufacturing paper from cornstalks.
The letter was accompanied by a
QUESTIONABLE which will be answered
and returned to the company. The
QUESTIONABLE is made up of nine COM
plete typewriter pages and deals
with Raw Material Supply, Farm
Labor, Valuation Placed on Farm
Wastes, Community Spirit, Questions
AS To Labor Supply, Labor Organi-
zations, Housing Conditions, Water
Supply, Available Factory Sites,
Transportation, Cost of Living, City
Data, Schools, Legislation, Taxes,
Construction Data and Utility Rates.
From the letter and QUESTIONABLE
it is evident to see that several plants
will be located throughout the Corn
Belt, some of which will be located
in southwestern Minnesota. Red
wood Falls, with its natural water
supply and situated in the best corn
producing part of the state will be
duly considered for plant site. The
Lions Club, in cooperation with other
organizations of the City will begin
work on the questionnaires at once.

A business meeting of the Board
of Directors of the Minnesota Clay
Works of which Martin Lohrenz OF
Redwood Falls is member, was held
last Monday night. Discussions re-

progress were held, in which a report
of the work was read.
This Redwood county enterprise,
situated on the Minnesota river, near
Morton is manufacturing 100000 high
grade face brick and fire brick each
day. The machinery of the plant is
sufficient to do this amount of work
in about four hours, although the
burning and heating of the brick TAX
es much longer time.
The fire brick used in heat resis-
tance is subject to temperature of
approximately $500 degrees faren-
heit. The only competitors the COM
pany has on this brick are located in
Missouri, Ohio and Indiana.
Sales agencies are being establish
ed in Chicago, Milwaukee, Duluth and
Fargo as we'll as wholesalers in Min
neapolis and ST. Paul selling the pro-
duct of the local company. A job
was just finished for the Great Nor
thern Railroad at Madison, Wis, as
we'll as repeat order from this COM
pany for 100000 brick for use in
Minneapolis.
A distinctive feature of the brick
manufactured locally is that it can be
supplied in about twenty-five differ
ent shades.
About thirty men are employed.
At the present time the company has
about 100000 brick on hand and is
still unable to supply the demand.
Several Redwood Falls business
men are stockholders in the organi-
Zation.
