Like Will Rogers all we know is what we see in the papers but would like to wise up how the gov enment can square its move to withdraw 49 navy yes sels from service to bring the navy within the nita- tions of the London Disarmament Treaty and throw 480O men out of work while at the time Herb Hoover is lying awake nights this here url- employment problem.
 This old government of ours is sure strong for be- ing consistent Look how they sent old friend Kel logg all over the world getting everybody to sign off fighting and he'd got back than Congress passed bill to build 15 battle cruisers And no sooner do they pass that bill than Herb asks all the boys to get together in London and agree to scrap lot of bat tleships. Now they are throwing out of jobs in departments of sgovernment like these navy boat and the Alaska Railroad in the of economy while trying to jam through emergency measures to provide funds to create more jobs Artificial prosperity.

During recent months many i'm
provements have been reported to
the Association and there is an in
dication that several new resorts
will be constructed during 1880 or
1881. Among the resorts which
spent large sums in undermining
their places or making other i'm
provements during 1929 were Gun
flint Lodge at Grand Marais, Breezy
Point, at Pequot, Dunn's Lodge at
Pelican Rapids, Rutgers at Deer
wood, Grand View Lodge at Mis-
swa, Northland Lodge at Orr, Cal
vert's Camps at Baudette, Moore's
Springs at Akeley and North Bay
Camp at Nevis.
At point II miles from Brain
ed on Gull Lake a beautiful new
resort is now being constructed
which will be operated by Arthur
L. Roberts, of Winona. The new
resort will be finished with stucco,
will be four stories high besides
basement, will be equipped with
elevator and will be modern in ev-
: cry respect. 1t is located about SO
yards from the Pine Beach Golf
Course which was constructed
about four years ago and is con-
sidered one of the finest in Min
nesota.
For some time according to Mr.

SHOT IN LEGS

An unfortunate accident occurred
at Spring Hill Tuesday night when
a number of young men were cele-
brating the advent of the new year
with the shooting of shotguns. In
the jubilation the charge Of a IL
gauge gun was shot toward the
ground, glanced off and struck Ben
Kranz, son of Mr.. and Mrs. p. J.
Kranz, of Spring HILL about both
feet. He was brought to this city
and several of the shot were ex-
tracted, but many were so deep
that the doctor advised against re-
moval unless complications de-
velop.
The shot went through a pair of
high top leather shoes, the left
leg receiving most Of the shot.

20 Years Ago
Excerpts From The Herald
of January 6. 1910

The January meeting of the city
council was held on Monday eve
ming instead of on Wednesday as
Usual, as City Clerk ]. F. Cooper
had to leave the city Tuesday
morning for a two weeks absence.
The principal business was the
consideration of the ordinance
granting new franchise to the
Northwestern Telephone Exchange
Company. The ordinance laid be-
fore the council Monday night had
been materially modified from the
form in which it was presented at
a meeting of business men recent
~, in that the rights of the city
were more carefully guarded. The
main features of the franchise
which was granted Monday night
are that the life of the franchise
is rs years and that the maximum
rates for service are fixed at $3.50
and $1.50 per month for business
and residence phones respective
ly. On the passage of the ordin-
ance Alderman Irish, Richards and
Pangburn voted in the affirmative
and Aldermen Boutell and Miller
sin the negative. Alderman Borg
mann was absent. Mayor Minette
states that he will probably not
sign the ordinance. The life of the
franchise under which the COM
pany is now operating is IA years
and it has been in force four
years. If the ordinance as passed
Monday night should be ratified
: the company would thus have IF
teen years of additional life at in
creased rates. Manager Ward
says the company has lost money
the past year on the present plant
The company, he says, wants to
rebuild and If it does will expend
some $4,000. As might be expect.
ed, there is opposition to an in.
crease in rates. There Is even
talk of organizing an indenpenden,
company. Whether this project
materializes remains to be seen
The company claims that when g
system is old like the local one il
is operated at great expense anG
only at loss. The increased cos,
of material, they say, is an argu
ment in favor Of higher rates. The
company as well as the public rea
