LINDY Is NOT AFRAID

How many young fellows, when
they go counting, shy around in the
dark wondering what that noise was
and if they will get home safely with
out being held up? And mayhap, be-
cause it has been decreed by some
rival that if he catches a certain
young fellow visiting certain fair
lady, he will have to pay the conse-
quences, that certain young fellow
will stay clear of the sweet and mar
row path which leads to the fair
lady's house. But all this is not so
with the senior member of the firm
We" Indy goes counting with all
the bandits and bad men of Mexico
underneath him shooting and kick
ing up a row and doesn't seem to
worry in the least. He makes his
regular trips to and fro by airplane
with apparently no one but Anne on
his mind.
Askov American. [volume] (Askov, Pine County, Minn.) 1914-current, 1929-04-11

The rebels. in their effort to over
throw the Mexican government. have
been little careless about keeping
their bullets at home and the result
is they have let them stray into
United States territory a few times
and this has been sufficient to arouse
Uncle Sam. 1t has now been decreed
by the United States government and
the orders have been passed to the
American troops and aviators along
the border. that if any Mexican plane
be observed flying over United States
soil it shall be shot down and like
wise the American border patrols
have been authorized to open fire
on the Mexicans if there are any
more shots fired into United States
territory.
A circulated report of these orders
along the Mexican battlefront has
rather quenced the desire of the re-
bells to waste ammunition so near the
hunting ground of the yankees. Uncle
Sam is not looking for any trouble,
but if it comes knocking on the door
to disturb the peaceful occupation of
his citizens, he is not going to be
caught mapping.

a shortage of these jobs if many of
the nOn-essential bureaus are diScOn-
tinued.
BY refusing to extend his speaking
engagements to the customary quota.
it would seem that the president is
jeopardizing his own chances of re-
election. For is it not the machine
that politician builds up while in
office, that is instrumental, to a large
degree. in getting him returned to
office? And what is more of help
toward making a president popular
than speaking tours over the country
while in his official capacity as high
est officer in the land? 1t would seem,
by this action that Mr.. Hoover has
something up his sleeve" Either he
does not care for return to the pres
idency after this four year term. or
he thinks he will make a decided hit
with the voting public by refusing to
commit himself to such a waste of
time and energy. At any rate it is a
different brand of tactics than the
dyed i'm the wool politician is inclined
to use.

MINNESOTA AND THE TORNADO

Fridays tornado caused consider
able damage and suffering to the
various communities in Minnesota
where it hit and it will take the great
er part of the summer months for the
victims TO repair and rebuild the ma
terial damage that was done and
some loved ones have departed never
TO return. Out of a seemingly clear
sky, the storm fell and with unabated
fury it traversed miles before the
people in the nearby communities
could realize what had happened.
Amidst the glories of early spring
the hand of fate has visited some OF
our citizens and has wrecked their
homes and taken some of their loved
ones. 1t is ever thus-like a thief
in the night it comes, without warn
ing, to prey upon us. Let us hope
that this will be our seasons quota.
With the wonderful climate, its
pretty lakes, rivers, and forests, it is
difficult to believe that Minnesota can
be visited by disaster of such propor-
tiOns, but it has come and gone and
a few have been subjected to the de-
vastation. 1t seems proper that the
more fortunate should help in every
possible way, the victims to replace
what they have lost.

MUCH DAMAGE is
DONE BY STORM
Continued from Page u

of AskOv, but now of Centuria, Wis,
in which he reports the close prox-
unity of the storm in that locality.
Following is an excerpt from his let
ter:
1T just occurred to me while | was
sweeping that you had possibly heard
of the storm here last night, so / am
taking a few moments to give you a
few details to allay the fears of
friends for our safety; and naturally
Paul would be concerned about his
folks. The storm seems to have struck
about two miles west of town and
passed about half mile or so west
of FrOkjer's place and went north
eastward toward Midtown. The Van
Gundy place west of Frokjer's is badly
damaged. No lives were lost as far
as reports state, and only a few
bruises. At least half dozen farm
Steads were more or less ruined. In
case this reaches you this evening,
will you kindly call my sister and tell
her the storm passed by us so she
need not worry about us in particu-
lar?"

Stottrup was an inspiration. Often
times we. who are physically fit and
in our best years, complain about
this and that when our troubles are
trivial and when we should be happy
ana contented. But here is man
who must stay indoors and miss much
of that which others can enjoy-the
great outdoors close to nature. And
yet he is happy and interested in the
welfare of his family and humanity
in general He asks for no sympathy
but is glad to be of help to others.
Naturally he appreciates a visit now
and then from friends and is very
thankful for acts of kindness from
friends and neighbors. Truly it is an
inspiration to visit such a man. his
happy and cooperating family and
his fireside.

HAS HOOVER MADE A MISTAKE!

The politicians and the daily press
are bemoaning the fact that President
Hoover has broken the presidential
precedent by curtailing the handshak-
ing engagements to twice a week with
the possibility that further cuts will
be made. They are also lamenting
over the fact that he has refused to
commit himself to following up the
strenuous public speaking program
adhered to by some of his predeces-
sors. 1t has also been rumored that
several bureaus and public offices will
be discontinued in due time.
Now neither of these adoptions of
the new president is going to be
popular with the politicians and 9TH
ers holding public office, who owe
their positions to the office seekers.
In the first place Mr.. Hoover's refusal
to continue the daily costum of hand
shaking is going to spoil the plans of
the senators and congressman from
the Various states to have their senti-
mental constituents come to Washing
ton SO that they might conduct them
into the presence of the president and
in the second place, the curtailment of
some of the many bureaus will limit
the prediction promises of jobs for
vote-getting supporters-there will be

PINE COUNTY WITH OLSON

Editor Askov American:
The Minneapolis city council graft
exposures are front page items regu-
larly in the Minnesota daily papers.
Floyd B. Olson, the fighting county at
torney of Hennepin county, with the
assistance of Joe Poirer, assistant
county attorney of Hennepin county
and a few others who believe in clean
and honest government, are putting
forth great effort to clean up the stu
alton in the city of Minneapolis. With
two former councilmen already serv-
ing time, another found guilty. and
others indicted it looks as if Mr.. Oh
son is the man to ever do his duty.
Floyd B. Olson, in 1924, was the
Progressive candidate for governor OF
this state; he was defeated by a very
small margin. In fact, change OF
less than three per cent of the total
vote would have elected him as gov
ernOr He carried the majority of the
counties in the state, and | am proud
to say that he carried our own county
Pine, by more than 600 majority Mr.
Olson received this splendid vote in
the face of the Coolidge Republican
landslide which, naturally, was a
strong factor in carrying over the Re-
publican state ticket.
Mr.. Olson, since the above election
has had an opportunity to show his
fine qualities as public servant
The people should, and no doubt will
insist that he continue in the public
service.

pair for us to have in the United

SAFER MOTORING

Several years ago it was no UNI
common thing to read of railroad
wrecks with splintering and burning
coaches, taking heavy losses of life.
Although there are wrecks and losses
of life now. it is not as great as it
was formerly. What is the answer?
Steel railway coaches. Whenever a
steel train is wrecked, the splintering
and burning of the coaches does not
take place as was formerly the case.
and what loss of life is evident is
caused by the impact in most cases.
The all-steel automobile body would
eliminate many of the casualties of
the motoring world of today and its
adoption will be long stride toward
making this safer age.

AN INSPIRATIONAL VISIT

visit one evening recently to the
home of Mr.. and Mrs Frede Stott-
rup, northeast of Askov, by the editor
of the American and his family, was
an aspiration and much enjoyed. As
is well known to the people in the
AskOv community, Mr.. Stottrup is bad
iy crippled up from rheumatism. He
was farmer here for a number of
years and in the meantime took up
and his family moved to Brush, Colo.
where he became pastor of the Da-
nish Lutheran church, remaining
there until 1927 when he was obliged
to give up his pastoral work due 10
the rhumatism and came back to the
old home farm with his family ana
where his sturdy son, Harold, is now
doing the heavy work and managing
it we'll
Mr.. Stottrup spends most of his
time now in a wheel chair He suffers
considerable bodily pain when moved
but does not complain While he has
some use of his hands he is not strong
enough to hold book and therefore
does little book reading. But he
keeps well abreast of the times by
reading newspapers and clippings that
are handed to him, and through read
ing by his good wife and others.
His mind is very fresh and alert and
it is enlightening and pleasure 70
spend some hours in his company.
Mr.. StOttrup has always been a stu
dent of affairs and though he cannot
now get out and mingle with folks
he is vitality interested in the affairs
of the community and the nation
He told the writer that he had several
times felt like writing some articles
for the Opinions of Others" column
in the American but was hardly
physically able to do so. 1t was sug-
gested that he dictate his articles
to some member of the family and
thus get it into writing. We feel
sure that our readers will be glad to
hear from him-from a man who has
plenty of time to think and who
thinks clearly.

TARIFF AWAITS ACTION
LongWorth Announces That Act
Will Be Very Little
Changed.

Washington, D. C.-Practical com.
pletion of the writing of the 1929 tariff
bill by the Republican members of the
ways and means committee has been
announced by Speaker Nicholas Long
worth. Mr.. LongwOrth said the bill
was completed in almost every detail
with the exception of the farm SEIZED.
ules which are being delayed, pending
action of the agricultural committees,
the tariff being part of any farm re-
lief bill that may be written.
The question of valuation was~ the
last stand of the advocates of higher
rates on manufactures as represented
by the Grundy group. The decision
against either American" or "domes.
tic" valuation known under various
terms means a victory for the Long
worth group in the house and is un
derstood to be in line with what the
administration has desired.
Farm leaders, struggling with the
complex intricacies of farm relief and
tariff, admit there is little likelihood
of obtaining tariff duty against veg,
etable oils and jute, admission to this
effect being made by Representative
Purnell, Jr., Indiana, in the hearings
Of the house committee on agriculture
These two items and the duty on su.
gar, have furnished the chief Difficult.
ties in writing the farm schedules.
The speaker believes the farm bill
a week or 10 days after converting,
and that the tariff bill will be ready
for submission and action by that
time. -
