Many Labels In
Bootleg Case

Consumers of bootleg liquor, pos
sessed of a good Imagination, might
event get drunk on the labels intro
duced as evidence when Robert
Lovin was arraigned before Judge
I. Mayfield this morning on a charge
of possession of intoxicating liquor.
Labels for every imaginable kind
of liquor were produced in the court
room, ranging from Bourbon to Col
den Wedding brands.
Lovin entered a plea Of guilty to
the charge and asked that judg-
ment be withheld until this after
noon. His request was granted.
The defendant was arrested by
deputy sheriffs after search war
rant had been procured and ranch
east of Ell Centre searched. Several
empty bottles. the labels and four
or five gallons of liquor we're found.

according to o. O. Horne, chairman

Scouting cannot exist without
organization and no organization
can carry on without funds. The
Boy Scout budget committee that
came into existence January !,
found a deficit of $1,000 carried
over from 1880. The job was to fit
a new budget TO limited fumes.
The committee immediately cut off
$500 from the customary sum
needed to carry on Scouting in this
council. It was no easy matter to
make this slash because Scoutirg

MERE DOLLARS

The Stewartville Star writes: after
all, people, we are on the earth for
not mere private gain. Naturally We
all like to have the wherewithall to
give our beloved ones the best there
is in life. But mere dollars does not
always mean happiness. Happiness
means love of fellCwman, pure heart.
For years, we have felt that the Lords
Prayer, if repeated each and every
night, with meaning from the heart,
by each and every one of us, would
create a condition on this old earth
of ours that would mean no more
wars: no more controversies among
people, states or communities"
The Star editor is absolutely correct
when he writes that mere dollars
does not always mean happiness" but
the dollars do come in awfully handy
when people need clothing and are
hungry, and in such cases they do not
detract from happiness to be sure.
The Star editor is undoubtedly sincere
in what he writes about The Lords
Prayer. but Judging from the condition
of the world-the wars, strife, and
controversies-there must be some
prayers with not so much meaning
from the heart or else there are too
few of them.

A DIRTY TRICK

This happened in Scott county, &C
cording to the Jordan Independent:
Zone day last week, Roy Chard of
Belle PLANE township, noticed large
truck loaded with hogs, stop opposite
his field and the driver turn two hogs
loose. Mr.. Chard was blowing at the
time. Thinking something was amiss,
he notified County Attorney Irwin.
The latter Immediately got on the
case. He hurried to South st. Paul.
There Mr.. Irwin found the truck
and few moments later the driver,
whom he confronted. The county at
torney demanded to know why the two
pigs had been removed from the truck.
The driver stated he had feared they
were afflicted with hog cholera and
decided to turn them loose in this
county. A checkup of the remaining
hogs on the load, disclosed that out of
the 62 pigs on the truck, twelve were
afflicted with cholera.
''He compelled the driver of the
truck to return to the Chard farm and
look for the two pigs, but the swine
could not be found. The following
day Mr.. Chard found one of the two
hogs on his farm and took it to a
veterinary for examination. This ami
NAL had severe case of cholera. The
discovery of hog cholera in certain
sections of Scott county can possibly
be explained through the practice of
truck drivers unloading sick hogs
while enroute through the county, Mr..
Irwin avers.'

EXTRACTING GOLD FROM
LOW ORE
(The St. Cloud Daily Times)

(The st. Cloud Daily Times)
Possibly many people do not realize
that one of the largest gold producing
companies is in South Dakota. The
Homestake Mining company in Pen
nington and Lawrence count es in that
state, has been in operation for fifty
years. 1t has 1,70O employees, and is
extracting the gold from low grade
ore, that in former days was not con-
sidered. 1t is milling 5000 tons a
day with an average of Sc a ton.
This becomes profitable because of
improved methods and better mach
inery.
In the years to come the iron COM
panies Of Northern Minnesota will
find way to make profitable use of
the mountains of low grade ore, that
are now being dumped, while the
high grade can be scooped by mechan-
ical shovels, at low cost.
What has been done in, South Da-
kota with low grade gold ore will be
done with Minnesota low grade iron
ore.

in full. The result was that the prin-
cipal was reduced to one-third. Pay
ments were extended over a term of
sixty (60) years at an extremely low
rate of interest. This war debt comes
under the already declared Interfa-
tional Moratorium, which by the way
was proposed by our honorable Pres
ident Hoover.
Such is our governments generosity
towards other nations. Why should
we accept less? Would it not be a
nice thing if we could, have. our war
debt reduced &c 2-3 per cent. If l am
not much mistaken it was an Amer
lean bnaker who did the fixing for
Europe. If it worked out all right
in Europe, it ought to work out in the
United States. Furthermore it is an
American plan.
In my opinion it would be very un-
desirable to accept a moratorium I'M
less it also brought interest rates
down to one or two per cent on mort
cages and notes. And to make all
government and municipal bonds nom
interest bearing. That done it would
give us a breathing spell in which to
adjust our economic and social prob
lens.
It's not my belief that reducing in
terest would cure all our trouble.
There must be limit to mans ability
to pay. Whenever our debts have
reached the enormous sum so that in
terest can be met only during our
most prosperous times, then the rate
of interest must be adjusted to meet
existing conditions.
