SHIBE PARK, PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 7.-Before a crowd of 35,000 bowling baseball fans, the St. Louis Cardinals, led in their attack by the redoubtable Pepper Martin, lam pasted three Athletic pitchers for 12 hits and five runs to take the crucial fifth game of the Worlds Series, five to one. This gives the National League champions a three to two lead for the series which will. reopen in St. Louis Friday afternoon at Sportsman's Park.
 Pepper Martin, Streets irrepres- sible center fielder, divided honors for today's game with Wild Bill Hallahan who tanned the As heavy gunnsrs for the second time in the series. Peppers home run in the sixth inning with Frisch on second sewed up the game and sent Waite Hoyt, Connie Mack's starting choice, to the clubhouse.
 Wins, Almost Singlehanded
 The great St. Louis center fielder, who has been the outstanding fig ure in the current struggle, rose to new heights today. He drove in three and scored fourth himself of the Cards five-run total. In four trips to the plate he hit a long fly to left, scoring High from third, got a single in the fourth that was wasted, homered in the sixth to score F'risch and himself, and singled in the eighth to chase Watkins across the rubber, before he called it a day. These three hits brought his total to 12 for the series which ties the record
 Each trip to the plate Martin was greeted by a tremendous din of enthusiasm from even the most rabid of the hometown fans, who have been won by his great play ing throughout the series. His home run in the sixth was ter rife clout, the ball landing in the upper tied of the left field pavilion. AS he trotted over the plate the fans, most of them standing, gave him an ovation.
 Score in First
 The Cards went to work on Hoyt in the first inning Sparky Adams, making his second appearance since the series opened, started the fire works with single to left. Sparky wasn't as good as he thought and Andy High was sent in to run for him. After Watkins had flied out to Simmons in left, Frisch stung the ball to center for single and High raced to third, Frisch taking l second on the throw to third. l Martin, who was advanced from sixth to fourth place in the Card batting order, was cheered loudly as he danced up to the plate. He hit the second ball pitched hard. It sailed out far into left field but Simmons caught it after a good run High had no trouble scoring 1 on the hit, Frisch going to third where he died when Hafey went out, Williams to Foxx.
 l In the second Bottomley found Hoyt for single but it was futile. The Cards couldn't get anyone on base in the third Martin tickled the fans in the fourth when he caught the As infield flatfooted with a hunt down first base line which he beat out for a single. .Co,t;a,a~, ,,, Dooc r-1,raal

A BIG MELLON

The Minnesota Veterans of Foreign
Wars at their convention in Waseca
last week passed resolution urging
Congress to request the resignation of
Andrew Mellon, secretary of the treas
ury-a member of the presidents cab
met. This was no, small step on the
part of the war veterans but it shows
where they stand and that they are
not afraid to speak up in public.
The Askov American has written
some editorials opposing the policies
of Mr.. Mellon who by his actions and
work has proved himself to be the
best secretary of the treasury in
American history to favor the groups
OF special privilege, entrench d
wealth, and the various combinations
who are today upsetting the economic
foundation for millions of our citi-
zens, resulting in unemployment to
the extent of about six millions of
people and farm price levels the low
est in years.

A FAR CRY

When Post and Gatty made their
round-the-world flight in little over
eight days it was a real step of pro-
gress and advance in scientific in
telligence from the days of Columbus
when the average human being was
bewildered at the thought of leaving
the coast of the mother country for
lear of dropping off the edge of the
earth. Columbus demonstrated that
other lands existed and then Magel-
Ian sailed around the world to show
that one could sail east by sailing
west" Since then numerous expedi-
lions have been conducted around the
world and not long ago an airship
and airplane each flew around the
world. Now comes this latest exploit
of Post and Gatty to not only fly
around the world but to do it in such
record breaking time.
Great steps have man come in many
lines but the human race has yet to
learn how to take care of its poor and
needy. Flying around the world won't
help them but if a proportionate
amount of thought is expended in the
solving of this great problem facing,
humanity then similar strides can
also be attained and poverty in our
midst also may be alleviated to an
appreciable degree.

MAY BE A LESSON

Not all Investigations give the de-
sired result or Information but there
was one senatorial investigation about
ten years ago that opened the eyes of
the public. That was the Teapot
Dome affair where it was found that
"a conspiracy was consummated to
steal from the American people oil
reserves that were valued in excess
OF $100,0O0,000. Through the untiring
efforts of the late Robert M. LaFol-
lette, ST., and others the plot was
laid bare and the American public
found out what kind of a servant they
had in Albert B. Fall, then a mem
aber of the presidents cabinet E. L.
Doheny and Harry Sinclair were the
principal money men back of the
dirty mess and they have not yet and
likely will not serve time for the
great offense. 1t seems some folks
are displaying much sympathy on ac-
count of Fall being an old man and
is now to serve a year. There are
hundreds of cases just as pathetic
that do not receive the attention of
the public. Justice must be meted
out, and while Doheny and Sinclair
did not get their dues the fact that
after ten long years, Fall, it appears
will now serve time, may have
healthy effect in staying the hand of
corruption in government. 1t is diff
ficult to convict a million, but if
guilty it should be done.

Conform With the Opinions
of the AskOv American.)
THE GOVERNOR SPOKE
mile Laos County Times)

\NAAAhS A<oSo Soulty ihSoI
To read the editorials of some of
the Republican editors in this state
criticizing Gov. Olson for fixing a
minimum wage on state road work
one would be led to believe that labor
saving road machinery was not used
until this year. These editors COM
plain that the fixing of the minimum
wage is driving the contractors to
using labor saving machinery. The
fact is that contractors have been
adopting labor-saving machinery for
construction work as fast as it was
invented, and they will continue to do
so no matter what wages for labor
may be. Gov. Olson is doing the
best he can with the situation as he
found it. 1t would be little use to
start a big highway building program
for relief of the unemployed If the
unemployed could be beaten down by
contractors to starvation wages. That
the fixing Of the minimum wage was
necessary has been demonstrated by
the attempts of certain contractors
to evade it and force men to work in
clearing the right-of-way for roads
ON an acreage" contract basis where
the men would earn dollar a day or
less. And by the way, did you ever
hear of Republican governor in
Minnesota ever bothering himself
with the question of what labor was
going to receive from state contracts?

THE NEW MAYOR
(The Minneapolis Star, July g.

Inc MInHedpOllS Otdr, July o.
A new mayor, elected by the largest
majority ever given a candidate for
the office in Minneapolis, takes Of
flee today.
William A. Anderson, lawyer, avow-
eddy sympathetic with the men and
women who work with their hands,
has pledged himself to be the mayor
of no group or clique, but of the whole
people.
The overwhelming fashion in which
the voters of Minneapolis registered
their confidence in him at the polls
a month ago must be an inspiration
to him in this determination.
Mayor Anderson has pledged him
self to work for the industrial up
building of Minneapolis, so there may
be more work for its workers, for an
alert and vigorous police administra-
ton, for such reasonable conduct of
the city government as may hold down
taxes, for amicable relations between
employer and employee, for making
Minneapolis more than ever desir-
able place in which to live, to work
or to conduct business.
In such a program Mayor Anderson
will find the people of Minneapolis
solidly behind him. May he have the
strength and wisdom and courage to
scorn and to outwit the small minority
who will scheme to obtain special
privileges at the expense of the great
majority.

MORE WILLOW RIVER

]. M. Johnson of Zumbrota, former
resident here, stopped Wednesday on
his way to Zumbrota from Duluth.
Maurice Weinberger, superintend-
ent here for four years, has accepted
position as superintendent of schools
at Gibbon, Mimi, for the coming
school year. This is a town of about
700 people with fine school building
and first class equipment. Each room
in the school is equipped with a radio.
Cooking, sewing, and agriculture are
also taught by special teachers. This
position is an advancement over what
he had here. Mr.. Weinberger is q
good school man and is very deserving
of this position.
Sunday was "Old Settlers Picnic
Day" at the Tourist Park at First
lake. Early morning were showers
and cloudy weather, but about noon
the weather cleared up and the crowd
began to arrive. The park tables
were soon filled and the picnic was
on. There were people from other
cities who lived here in mill times
that came back to renew acquaint-
ances. This is the second picnic of
this kind and people are interested to
get together and visit and exchange
ideas. These picnics are sponsored
by the local Community club. So far
all the entertainment there has been
is ball game, this year between
Kettle River and Willow River. The
score was in favor of Kettle River.
Next year a more elaborate program
will be planned.

Senator Shipstead is not danger

mot dangerous on polish"
that used to be their specification
for both senators and congressman.
Most Republican senators have not
much polish, none of them are dam
gerous. Knute Nelson had very little
polish. While most of these editors
did not consider Magnus Johnson
very dangerous, they simply could not
stand his lack of polish. and they all
turned in to defeat him.
Do these editors now want a senator
who is unpublished and dangerous be-
sides? If so, such men can be found
in Minnesota.
Stlll HafOef 70 fleaSe.
The Brainerd Tribune is still more
unreasonable than is the Princeton
Union. 1t said recently: "Our broad
shouldered, sixfoot senator, Henrik
Shipstead, gets away from all local
entanglements by gallivanting in the
summer" This newspaper falls into
ecstasy over the Woodworking Con-
gresham KnutsOn, who loves work so
much that he is back home and works
all summer. Just what good the state
derives from it is hard to say, for his
hard work consists of attending Le-
gion district meetings. To ordinary
people this just means that the con-
gresham is fixing political fences
that are suspected of being in bad
shape. Harold does no "gallivanting,"
he is sweating. The paper goes on:
Harold is back in the harness for
his constituents, while Shipstead gets
away from the farmers troubles, from
workmen's troubles and unemplOy-
ment in Minnesota by just going to
Europe"
mere Is d DlS UllleTcHCS uetWSCh
Harold and Henrik! Henrik does not
come up for reelection for three
years, while Harold must face the
music next summer. Henrik will do
no "gallivanting" in thirty-three and
thirty-four.
Does not the Brainerd Tribune know
that the senator is away studying the
silver question? If, by reason of his
study, we of the common herd will
be able to rattle little more loose
change in our pockets, he will have
performed as good work for the state
as if he had been home attending Le-
gion conventions.
Governor Olson Works All the Time.
But Governor Floyd B. Olson works
all the time. He is not Sinking any,

is up against a disagreeable situation,
but he can not run away, he meets
every situation with smile-and con-
quers. His is a real mans job and
he is big enough for it.
