An interesting demonstration of a new fire extinguishing compound was given Sunday afternoon near Pioneer Hall by Mrs. William Bunting and Felix Seppi. with large num- Der of spectators on hand to witness the pyrotechnics.
 A wooden structure some Is or 20 feet high was soaked with tar and gasoline and ig- nited. While burning fiercely, Mrs. Bunting speedily checked the flames by sprinkling the structure with a white powder compound thrown from a met al tube.
 The compound also quickly obliterated the flames in a tub of mixed tar and gasoline, said to be one of the most difficult combinations of combustibles to extinguish that is known.
 In each instance the flames entirely disappeared within a few seconds after the com pound was applied. MT. Bunt- ing and MT. Seppi are inter- ested in the manufacture of the new fire extinguisher.

will be returned to Congress by his usual great
majority.
Midwest and western people have too long made
the mistake of frequently changing their representa-
tives in Congress. Whereas blood is beneficial
in state politics. at times, such is not the in
national politics, where seniority rights give repre-
sentatves and senators powerful committee assign
ments.
Mr.. Clague has never been found wanting in his
work. He has fought the good fight of the agricul-
turist He has fought for inland waterways and the
st. Lawrence route to the He has fought for a
tariff that would place agriculture parity with
industry. He has fought, in word, for every single
that would benefit his district and his state
Endowed with exceptional personality and with
those traits that make for real craftsmanship
unless sadly mistaken he will be returned
by greater majority than before.-Murray

ctizenry and constabularly when soft hearted de-
fender of the robbers arose. southern Minnesota
editor has specifically stated he believes it all wrong
to shoot bank robbers mercessly and the heroes of
the Glencross S. D. robbery no more better than
the robbers themselves.
Of course murder is wrong. Technically it is
wrong to kill in any manner although we Justify it
wnen done IN self defense and then hasten to explain
wars by adding that only defend our country
But here is situation of man with twisted
brain and rod ready to deal death in order to
secure his objective-the money he is after He will
shoot with abandon if his freedom is but threatened
and will not hesitate to consider the consequences
