Since you were called away:

The program Of both Repub-

rush enactment of unemployment

session Of Congress today appear.
ed headed for confusion. due to
conflicting opinions about lests-

Each proposal so far made 10

Treasury Shortage
There was general accord on
the subject Of speeding the Gov

agreement over the method. e
A warning by Senator Reed
(R.l of Pennsylvania, looked
upon as the Treasury spokeS-
man" in the Senate, that the
Government was facing deficit
at the end Of the year, may re-
tard plans for larger Federal ap-
propriatioi1s on public works.
Reed said the present extraor-
dinary / per cent slash in in
come and corporation taxes
authorized for 193O-would have
to be abandoned, since it would
incur q greater treasury deficit.
Reed also condemned the pro-
posed Red Cross appropriation.

to difficulties and they would
oppose It.

also disapproved the dole plan" :"
He said he would hesitate before
approving such an appropriation,
although he thought some such
emergency measure might be re-
quired.
Walsh agreed Congress should
act to relieve unemployment, but
instead Of urging larger appro-
priatioas for public works, de-
Clared some effort should be
made to compel immediSte action
on authorized projects.
He suggested increasing the
staff Of the supervising archi.
tect's office, since many projects
have been delayed there, due to
an inadequate personnel. He
added:
aside from the construction

Aaent relief Congress should
inquire into the subject Of

There should also be some
further effort to put the farmer
back on his feet"
Reed warned against new ex-
penditures. He said there wasn't
the Slightest chance" to con-
tinue the extra cne per cent. cut
on income and corporation taxes.
Heavy Revenue Losses
Reed urged the repeal Of the
capital gain tax. He said this
tax, coupled with a provision per.
Iiitting capital losses to be de-
Quoted from income tax returns,
wGs causing the Government
heavy losses in revenue.
In returns for this year, he
predicted, the Government would

This cry of fraud, recount" and

political sportsmanship.
DEMOCRATS MAKE A GRACIOUS
OFFER; GOOD POLITICS

The practically even political division of
both branches of the Congress in the next
session may be good thing for the country.
Of course the present organizations will
until December, 1881, unless Presi-
dent Hoover should deem it necessary to as
semble special session with the expiration
of the present congress March 4, 1881.
A few days ago the three former candi-
dates for President of the Democratic party,
and the minority leaders in both branches of
the Congress assured the Republican leaders
that they desired to work with them to the
end that business may again function and the
unemployment situation be as much relieved
as possible. This was very gracious thing
for them to do. 1t is also good politics.
While conditions in this country are not
as good as one would like to see, the coun-
tries of Europe, South America, Japan and
China are so much worse that the American
citizen is fortunate. The depression is world
wide and no political party is responsible for
it or could have prevented it.
Everything points to decidedly i'm
proved condition in this country within a
few months. If politicians, East and West,
will adjourn politics in Congress for time
it will be patriotic action for them to take.

Get the Rural Delivery
Mail Box Ready for Winter
Swinging Supports or Moveable
Boxes Recommended Where
Snow PIOwS Travel

The rural mail box is another
item which must now be added to
the list of things which we must
get ready for winter. With the
state prepared to plow all the
trunk highways, and many of the
counties and townships increasing
their snow removal programs, more
mail boxes must have attention
than in former years.
Even with the most careful driv-
er behind the plow, it is often i'm
possible to see the mail boxes or
avoid hitting them. With the high
speed plows now in general use, the
mail box on a rigid post too close
to the roadway is in a precarious
position.
One type recommended by the
State Highway department has a
swinging arm, made from 2 by
ten feet long, counter-weihted so
that the mail box is up in the air
and out of the way. A short piece
of rope is attached so the mail car
rier or persons calling for the mail
can easily pull it down within
reach. A diagram showing the ma
terial needed and how to construct
this box will be furnished by the
department on request.
Another type is made by using an
iron pipe for the post with a small
er 81" shaped pipe as a swinging
arm. The mail box is bolted to one
end of the smaller pipe and the
short end of the IL" fits loosely in
to the post.
Simpler and less expensive types
are the common tripod or "horse"
and the post set in an old milk
can ballasted with gravel or ce-
ment. These require moving back
and forth, but if the owner forgets
to move them before the plows
come, they will not be as badly
damaged as boxes on posts set In
the ground.

Postmaster Parker Urges
Earlier Xmas Mailings
Asks Patrons to Send HOli lay
Packages Early-WiIl Speed
Work in Office

Christmas is just around the cor
ner. From the standpoint of the
postoffice department and the pos
tai employees, it means period Of
three or four weeks of arduous lab
or and long hours of overtime.
Postmaster w. M. Parker is ask
ing that the public cooperate in
Tightening the burden of the post
office and of the employees by
shopping and mailing early.
This request is not entirely a sell
fish one, but helps the patrons of
the postoffice as we'll as the en-
ployees and others having to do
with handling mail. For, the same
number of pieces of mail, spread
out over a period of a couple of
weeks in the early part of the
Christmas season, means that few
er people will have to stand in line
in the last few days, and the people
will not have to wait so long to
mail their Christmas mail as if the
same number of pieces of mail
were packed into three or four
days before Christmas. Better SER
vice, also, is sure to result, for
packages mailed early are sure not
to be caught in an eleventh hour
congestion.
Incident to early mailing, the
public need not fear that the pack
ages, etc, sent will reach their des-
tination too soon. If they want
the same opened only on Christmas
they have the right to write on the
front of the outside Of the package,
mot to open until Christmas day."
or whatever day they wish the
package opened.
That is the first requirement Of
cooperation with the postoffice-
to mail early.
There are many other require
ments, but only two more will be
touched upon this week:
First, wrap parcels securely in
strong, heavy paper, and tie well
with heavy cord.
Second, address packages only
on one side. That insures saving
time and trouble for all concerned.
A parcel addressed only on one
side will have all stamps, post
marks, insured stamp and number
all on one side and none will be
missed. Some folks, in presenting
| a parcel for mailing with two adj
dresses, remark that the two ad-
dresses are put on in case one gets
torn off. Parcels wrapped SO that
an address might be torn off are not
sufficiently well wrapped for trans
initial through the mails. Only in
case Of a package where the adj
dress cannot be written on the
package and that tags have to be
used, is two addresses desired. A
tag might be torn off and one ad-
dress and return are on the pack
age.
More information about regula-
tions win be published from week
to week 80 people can give the CO.
operation desired In getting their
packages and other mail duly deliv-
cred.

SHOWING POOR POLITICAL SPORTS
MANSHIP

When the over jealous friends of Einar
Hoidale caused him to make that radio
speech late Tuesday evening of last week in
which he thanked the citizens of Minnesota
for the splendid majority they had given for
United States Senator, they put him in what
later has proved to be a very embarrassing
situation.
It will be recalled that in 1916 Charles
Hughes had defeated President Wilson for
48 hours or so. In their zeal Associated
Press representatives prevailed upon Mr..
Hughes to give out an interview in which
j he expressed his qualification upon being
elected President of these United States.
AS returns from the country rapidly
wiped out the lead of $4,000 Minneapolis and
ST. Paul had piled up for Mr.. Hoidale, his
managers became very frantic in their
charges of fraud. Recount and contest
were insisted upon. Dark hints were circu-
lated about corruption of judges in some of
the rural precincts, probably forgetting that
the average judge of election in the country
was just as patriotic and just as honest as
those in the honeycombed precincts Of the
larger centers of population.
Mr.. SchalPs majority has passed the 1O,-
600 mark and there isn't any question but
what the official count will show that he has
been elected.

DEMOCRATIC PARTY
SLUMPS in STEARNS.
Farmer Labor Candidates for
Offices But u. S. Senator
Receive Big Pluralities
HIMSL GIVEN FINE VOTE
Present County Officers Re-
elected. d. Sullivan,
Senator, Defeated

Eighteen thousand five hundred
five citizens of Stearns county
exercised their right of suffrage at
the election held Tuesday of last
week.
The official count of the ballot
Friday showed all of the present
county officers were elected hand
lily.
For many years Stearns was one
of the banner Democratic counties
of Minnesota. A strong Farmer
Labor sentiment was expressed by
the voters of this county at the
election of last week, with the De-
mocratic candidates running poor
third.
Judge of Probate ]. B. Himsl,
Farmer-Labor nominee for attor-
ney general received the high vote,
11,741. Although the judge failed
in his own objective the splendid
vote he received in his own county
must be source of qualification to
him.
The only Democrat to carry the
county was Einar Hoidale, nominee
for the United States Senate who
had a majority over Tom Schall,
Republican, of 1884.
Tht voters defeated the old age
pension bill by 18 votes. It required
a majority of all votes cast to make
the proposal operative. The propo-
sition received 9,235 votes and it
failed of passage because hundreds
of voters did not vote on the ques-
ton.
There a couple of hard Com
missioner fights-in the First and
Third Districts. w. F. Ernest de-
feated J. H. Kowalkowski by 433.
The former won over the latter
four years ago and Mr.. Kowalkow-
ski was making a final effort to
"come back"
Following the death of Commis-
sioner Thielen of the Third district
John N. Nett was named by the
town boards of the district as his
successor. At the election last week
he was opposed by John Lang, and
won by % votes. It is expected that
because of the closeness of the race
Mr.. Nett will demand recount of
the ballots.
County Commissioner F. J. Borg
man, of this the Fifth District, was
for reelection.
The result of the representative
race in this district will be found
in a table of vote by precincts.
John J. J. Jacobs, of Richmond,
was unopposed in his election for
Senator. In the 45th district, J. D.
Sullivan, who has served countinu-
ously for 20 years, or more was de-
feated by J. B. Pattison also a st.
Cloud attorney, by a majority of
9S5.

summaries showing the total vote
each candidate received in Stearns
county.

NEWSPAPER DECENCY PAYS, EVEN
INPOLTTICS

The visciousness of the campaign in this
state which resulted in the election of Floyd
B. Olson, Farmer-Laborite, as Governor, and
in the reelection of Thomas Schall as Unit
ed States Senator, has not been equaled in
this state for many decades.
The filth and half truths told in the
newspapers and over the radio reminded one
of the Presidential campaign of Grover
Cleveland and James G. Blaine way back in
1884.
The vaunted influence of the city and
rural press was given terrible WollOp Tues
day, Nov. 4.
The Minneapolis Journal led the fight.
The campaign the Journal waged against
Tom Schall was made up of half truths and
innuendos calculated, no doubt, to throw Mr..
Average Voter off his mental balance. This
usually great newspapers hatred for the
blind Senator, caused largely by his defeat at
the June primaries of their particular pet,
Gov. Theodore Chirstianson, caused Carl
Jones and his associates to lose their mental
,poise.
In this campaign of villifcation and
SANDER the Journal had several hundred fol-
lowers among the rural publishers of the
state. In this group were several OF the
self-admittedly big boys in the editorial pro-
fession. AS matter of fact they were the
real political purists.
Floyd Olson suffered scarcely less in this
campaign of misrepresentation than did Sen
ator Schall. Some allegedly clever muck
racker spent some time investigating Mr..
Olsons' record as county attorney of Henne-
pin county. This report was first given the
light of day in the Owatonna Journal-Chron-
icle. The Herald cannot, even now, under
stand how the level headed Owatonna pub
Usher, E. K. Whiting, allowed himself to be
made the victim to pull this very coarse po-
litical chestnut out of the fire.
With great glee this scandal-monging
supplement was offered to the Republican
press of the state in supplement form, free
of charge, of course. Several of the editor
ial "gang" in the "know" spread the scandal
through their newspapers.
In the light of results Ray P. Chase
probably could not have defeated Floyd Olson
for Governor, but it is cinch that the Re-
publican editors in their newspapers and
Incorporate statements in their radio ad-
dresses made votes for Mr.. Olson.
If the writer was in Senator Tom SchalP s
place he would almost be in a temper to send
the Minneapolis Journal and the large group
of rural papers supporting MIR. Hoidale, a
vote of thanks. Unquestionably the campaign
of truths and innuendo drove enough
votes to Schall to insure his election.
Practically all of the newspapers sup
porting Mr. Hoidale were also for Ray P.
Chase. Both were slaughtered in the house
of their friends.
The election results have demonstrated
very clearly that newspaper decency pays,
even in politics.

treason, but let 'er ride
