News and Comment

The longer we stay in politics the more we pond
the way of the people with their public officials
When you are running for office everybody wants
you to give hostages that you WILL when elected, walk
the straight and narrow way that leads to the COM
mon veal, that you will give to no special interest,
bend to influence and yield to pressure, but that
you will stand firm for the right and fail not in your
defense of the people.
But no sooner are you installed in office than they
try to order your conduct by pressure. They direct
against you every possible influence which they think
may compel you to bend to their pleasure. They
rally their friends from far and and set them
upon you In the argot of politics they build fires
under you and make it hot for you possible.
They threaten you with princpalities and overawe
you with powers In short, they try to gain their
ends by pressure.
The attitude of st. Paul in this matter of the
location of a state office building is an example
st. Paul appeared before the state commission
entrusted with the task of erecting an office building
for the state at three different meetings of the COM
mission. 1t submitted facts and arguments for the
site wanted If failed to convince the commission that
its site was the proper site.
What does ST. Paul do then? Promptly and vi
gorously takes to pressure. Issues appeals to the
various commercial clubs of the state to demand the
ST. Paul site. Asks these commercial bodies to voice
their demands at without consideration of the
matter Writes to the newspapers of the state and
asks them to set howl for the ST. Paul site Stirs
up the women of the state by crying of them that
the "Cass Gilbert plan" is in danger Makes an i'm
pressive showing before the Governor to silently
mind him that he may need votes in ST. Paul in 1880.
In fact brings every possible pressure to bear upon
the commission to induce it to act not upon its best
judgment but upon political expedency.
If it can raise enough hullabaoo throughout the
state in regard to this matter St. Paul thinks that it
may the commission into abandoning the public
welfare and yielding to the special interests of st.
Paul.
st. Paul is altogether right in desiring and work.
ing for fine setting for the state capitol It is al
together right when it that the people of the
state want fine approach to their capitol building.
But it is altogether wrong when it attempts to use

THE CHAIN AND REWOOD FALLS

The Montgomery Ward & Co.. chain store opened
in Redwood Falls last Saturday. The immense new
store visited by many thousand people, accurate
check being kept at the entrance door. On Friday
forenoon the business of Redwood Falls received
invitations to attend pre-openng, previous to the
rush that was expected on Saturday. The response
practically one hundred per cent.
With the opening of the Montgomery Ward &
Co.. store, the much debated question again arises,
"What effect will the Chain organizations have on the
welfare of the Community? This question has been
discussed, pro and con, not only in Redwood Falls,
but throughout the country.
Summing up the situation we are of this opinion,
so far as Redwood Falls is concerned: Chain stores
have the public spotlight at the present time. They
may Or may not be success, time will tell At least
they are here to stay for number OF years. 1t is
up to the local merchant to meet this competition
in the best manner possible We should find no fault
with the chain stores as stores. We should deny
the just right to patronize them We should treat
them as we do all other legitimate institutions, and
should show them no favoritism. We should ex-
pect them to do their part in community work and we
should insist upon this If any expect to squat in the
community and become parasites, this information
should be made known in legitimate manner. Pub
lie sentiment be always relied upon to bring just
ce There will be fault to find chain stores do
their part and if any do not they will find that those
who seek what they want without contributing some
thing for the privilege, seldom succeed.
Usually it can be expected that the chain store
is willing to take part in any Community Betterment
program this is and good business, for
what helps the community, helps the individual bust
ness.
1t is time for all Redwood Falls to forget slight
business controversies if any there are, and get to-
gether uphold and enjoy the reputation the city has
always had in the past "The Greatest Shopping Cen
ter in Southwestern Minnesota"

THE OLD ARMY DAYS

A rather amusing set of orders of the day for
October %, 1912, recently to light from Fort
Riley, Kansas:
81. Members of this command will when shooting
at bufaloes the parade ground, be careful not to
fire in the direction of the C. O.'s quarters.
"2. The troop officer having the best trained re-
mount for this year will be awarded barrel of rye
whiskey.
49, Student officers will discontinue the practice
of roping and riding buffaloes.
a. Attention of all officers is called to par 1O7,
A. R.. in which it provides under uniform regulations
that all officers will boards.
"5. Short buffalo coats ordered will be ready for
issue November &c."

NORTHLAND IS SOLD
TO GREYHOUND Line
Bus That Operates Through
Redwood Falls Is Sold
Last Week

The Northland Transportation
Company, which operates the bus
line through Redwood Falls has sold
out to the Greyhound Lines and is
now part of a national system of bus
lines.
Announcement of the deal was
made last Tuesday by Ralph Budd,
president of the Great Northern rail-
way. The railway is retaining a
large minority interest, however,
thus continuing it's participation in
the bus industry.
The sale of controlling interest was
made to the Motor Transit Corpora
tion and Automotive Investments,
Inc, organizations affiliated with the
coast to coast bus system known as
the Greyhound Lines. The North
land property, chiefly in Minnesota,
but with some operations in Wiscon-
sin and North and South Dakota, will
be operated under the name of the
Northland Greyhound lines.
The Northland, with headquarters
in Minneapolis, is a 100000 cor
poration which has been operating
as subsidiary of the Great North
ern since 1925. 1t has $500 miles of
lines and in 1928 carried $4,000
passengers. Its annual revenue is
$2,500,000. Business this year has
been better than in 1928.
In conformity with the national
policy of the Greyhound lines, Mr..
Budd said, the lines will cooperate
with the railway in giving bus serv-
ice to supplement train service. The
same policy is used elsewhere, the
Pennsylvania, So. Pacific and Burl-
ington roads being minority stock
holders of the Greyhound lines.
The Greyhound system, which is
managed by the Motor Transit Cor
poration, extends from New York to
Los Angeles and from the Great
Lakes to the Gulf of Mexico. 1t in
cludes the Eastern Yellowway lines
and in addition has a substantial in
terest in the Pickwick, Southern Pa
cific and Western Yellow bus lines.

SAN FRANCISCO. Calf, July A.
The fire demon continued to feast to-
day upon the choice scenery and pretty
homes of Mill Valley and upon ranches,
forests and grain fields elsewhere in
California and Arizona.
In two places-in the canyons and
ridges above Mill Valley and in the
Apache Indian reservation of Eastern
Arizona-the demon still ate greedily.
The Mill Valley fire was believed to
have been diverted from the town and
surrounding residential districts, but
was crawling up to the wooded slopes
of Mount Tamalpas to die.
First news of the Apache reservation
fire reached Phoenix late last night.
Telephone operators reported a fierce
confagration in the area, which Is the
center of one Of the largest pine forests
in Arizona. A wall of smoke rolled
through the White Mountain region.

WARRANTS SOUGHT
"John Doe" Writs to Be
Used to Arrest Four Hunted
in Abduction of Banker.

By the Associated Press.

PATERSON, N. j.. July 4.-Passaic
County oficials today prepared tc
swear out four warrants charging kid
mapping In the strange abduction Of
willard H. Elliott, 37-year-old bank Of
f1cial. who said he was held captive fol
six days by four unidentified men.
Assistant Prosecutor James M. Dunn
after three-hour conference with FL
lott, said he was convinced of the
truth" of the bankers statement.
Elliott, for whom widespread search
had been started, was found early Tues
day seated In his parked automobile in
Nutley and told the police he had been
kidnapped at the point of guns while en-
route in his car last Wednesday from
his home in East Orange to the Hobart
Trust Co. at Passaic, OF which he is vice
president and treasurer.
Women Confederate Story.
His story of the kidnapping was corroh-
Grated by three women who said they
saw the incident but said nothing at
the time, In order to avoid trouble.
Elliott declared his captors professed
ignorance as to the reason for his alb
duction and said they merely had been
hired for the job. He said he was re-
leased Tuesday and led back to his car
Dunn said he believed Elliott's bank
connection had nothing to do with the
kidnapping, and expressed the added be-
lief that mo bootlesgers, no stocks and
no women" were involved in the case.
Seek Motive In Probe.
I'VE are probing into the details OF
the case" he said, but until We can
definitely establish q motive it will be
difficult to solve"
He said John Doe" warrants would
be obtained on descriptions furnished
by Elliott and said he hoped the arrest
of the actual kidnapers would result In
discovery Of the man who hired them.
Elliott said he still feared his unknown
enemies and told of q strange automo-
bile that frequently has passed his
home since.

Aid Husbands in Texas Oil
Fields by Sacrifice of Home
Comforts.
By the Associated Press.

SAN ANGELO, Tex. Men who
poke arrow bits into the crust OF South
western oil fields do not alone earn
slories of conquest. Their wives, too,
share in these pioneering exploits.
Hundreds Of oil field homes are kept
by women who have forsaken COM
forts of life in normal communities.
They toll in an atmosphere that savors
of hectic dollar-chasing, sacrifices and
disappointments. Some have known
luxury, while not, few hope to attain
riches for the first time.
Her speech may be elegant, her COM
plexion rosy and her knowledge OF the
social graces absolute, but there Is
something of the elemental-the lot OF
the pioneer a dash Of adventure-in
the oil field housewives makeup.
Hope Conferred on Prospective Wells.
Her hopes are not dimmed by living
in a tent or two-room shack. The mo.
notonous spinning of an implanted bull
wheel is music to her, for there always
is that prospect of a we'll coming In"

lations great. When woman marrles

ably Is due for endless travelling: Their
de luxe motor car may be parked beside
q floor boarded tent 80 or 40 miles from
q town. Water may come In barrels
from a windmill miles away.
Some Homes Well Furnished.
In established fields there are houses
with gas heat, electric lights and per-
hans hardwood floors. There is bridge
and dancing. Nowhere, however, is
snobbishness found. It's the code not
to permit It,
There are few churches, but Bible
study groups are reported to outnumber
bridge clubs Within the roar or "gass-
ers' and flares these pioneers worship
in any church or school that Is handy;
A woman discovered the first oil well

She was right, and her husband now
