Watch Out For
Slippery Spots,

I'VE are reaching a season in which
in other years hundreds of accidents
have happened, many motorists have
been injured, and some have been
killed, because of surprise slippery spots
on pavements," State Highway Com
missioner c. M Babcock warns in a
special highway bulletin.
"A fog or light mist passing over
a paved road may make a treacherously
slippery place for perhaps only short
distance. A pavement that has been
perfectly clear for many miles may
suddenly develop number OF these
spots. No signs or flags can be placed
to warn of them because of their UNI
heralded appearances and disappear
anceS.
eff section of pavement ahead OF
a driver seems to have a different
color or shine it is wise to slow down
before getting on to it because the icy
coating may be so even and smooth
that control of the vehicle is very
difficult. A conservative speed at al
times is good policy for fall and winter
driving in order to avoid accidents due
to slippery roads," Commissioner Bah
cock urges.

Amendment No. 3.

Among the amendments to the state
constitution to be voted on Nov. 9th
is one to provide more effective adj
ministration of state and national
forests. This is Amendment No. 3
which if adopted by a two-thirds vote
of all ballots cast will authorize the
state legislature to provide for ex-
changing state lands for U. S. lands on
a value basis.
Within the Chippewa and Superior
National Forests are considerable areas
of state lands which can be better
handled by the U. S. Forest Service
than by the State Forest Service. If
the federal government can acquire
these lands they will Immediately be
supervised and protected from fire by
the foreSterS of the national govern
ment.
In exchange for the state owned land
within boundaries of the two national
forests the state will receive lands now
owned by the federal government with
in state forest land, and the state
authorities can proceed to block out adj
ministration areas for the State Forest
Service to supervise and protect.
Forestry management plans are much
easier to develop when the forest area
is under one undivided administration
The revenue possibilities in each case
will be greatly increased. This amend
ment will provide for consolidation and
promote more efficient supervision OF
forest resources.

SEASONABLE HAZARDS.

hazards, too, are undergoing season.
able change. Those very leaves present
a new danger. When they become wet
they form a slippery surface on the
roadway. That means brakes must be
mechanically perfect and speeds must
be cut down in those residential dis
tricts where nature has laid down this
treacherous carpet.
Dusk is falling earlier, and that
dangerous period between daylight and
darkness is coming while there are still
many children on the streets.
Heavy fogs, light mists and rains are
characteristic of autumn. Look to the
perfect working order of your wind

there will be thick frost on the pave

Old Sol will promptly convert into

his driving habits accordingly.-Na-

specialists are beyond their price, that
the family doctor has caught up pretty
thoroughly with the most advanced
practises and furthermore that he is
in position to keep up, as he may not
have been in the old days.
1.-The most practical immediate an
swer to the problem of the costs of
medical care lies in the employment of
a good general practitioner who will
be able to familiarize himself with the
family and its history. He will guide
the family, maintaining health rather
than merely treating it in disease" the
committee declares.
1.-THE specialists and the medical
centers are still important and essential
parts of our system of medical care,
doctors say. But they serve their
function best when they are serving
at the call and under the advice of the
family physician"
Ninety per cent of the common ILL
ness can best be treated by family
doctor. He will know more about the
history and background of the illness
than the most expensive specialist can
possibly find out in a hasty routine
examination. For the other ten per
cent of disease or accident he also will
know best how to obtain the proper
specialist services"

This man is Jim NOVEL;, well known
to old-timers in the political game, as
he was one of the closest friends and
political advisers of the late Gov. w. s..
Hammond-in fact, Jim was travelling
down south with Gov. Hammond in
December, 1915, when the latter was
taken suddenly ill and died.
Jim hasn't been very active in politics
in recent years, but he still keeps his
ear pretty close to the ground and
knows a thing or two about what's
happening, so it naturally surprised me
to hear him express any doubt about
where Minnesota will land in the
presidential election.

Democrat to win Minnesota's electoral
VOTE" was Jim Nowell's surmise. He
didn't explain his bunch any further.
He might be right, or it might be
just another case of "everybody's out
of step but jim" Anyhow, he's been
pretty good guesser in his day, so I
merely pass his opinion along. You can
take it or leave it.
This thing of urging the voters to
vote the straight ticket" of their party
used TO be a big thing in every political
campaign, but the advent of a third
party into state politics, plus the Min
nesota plan of electing legislators,
county officials and the judiciary on a
non-party basis, has caused the old
vote 'er straight" plea to lose much of
its effectiveness.
However, it's being revived to some
extent in this campaign, due largely to
the fact that the states congressman
this year must be elected at large in
stead of by districts.
But it begins to look now as If some
body has been making a mistake
tumble, as the football player would
call it.
The Farmer-Labor candidates not
quite all of them, by the way-but in
Guiding Gov Olson, have been urging
the voters pretty generally to vote the
Farmer-Labor ticket straight, from top
to bottom"
That was o. K early in the campaign,
but it's pretty much like the chicken
that comes home to roost, or the bad
penny that returns. There's now a
National Farmer-Lalbor presidential
elector ticket in the field for Mime

Mr.. Victor H. Gran, candidate for
District Judge of the Eleventh Judicial
District, comprising Carlton, st. Louis,
Lake and Cook Counties, was born in
Finland on March Z, 1879. He re-
ceived his public school education in
the Finnish and Swedish languages in
Finland. Early in 1893 he emigrated to
the United States with his parents and
settled on their homestead near Grand
Rapids, Minnesota. With his brother
and father he was engaged in farm
ing and logging until the latter part of
1901 when he took college course in
the Minnesota Normal School and
Business College of Minneapolis and
later graduated.
In the fall of 1902 Mr. Gran entered
the Valparaiso University of Indiana,
graduating in the law department in
1904, and thereafter he took a post
graduate course in the Law Department
of the University of Minnesota in 1904
and 1905, and is a life member OF

This week in October, 1893, we note
that they had Minnesota Day at the
Chicago Worlds Fair and that many
state notableS were present including
Governor Knute Nelson accompanied by
his staff in uniform; D. A. Monfort,
president of the Minnesota fair board;
Mayor Eustis of Minneapolis, that noble
man who did so much for crippled
children, and many others.
Governor Nelson made an address at
the Minnesota building on the fair
grounds listened to by an exceptionally
large audience considering the fact that
the weather was what is called in vul-
gar parlance, rotten" In his talk he
gave out some facts and figures which
in this late day are well worth repeat
He said the Minnesota Constitution
was adopted in 1857; that the popu-
lation of the state in 1850 was SOFT,
just 70 less than the population of Ely
as given in the 1880 census; that in
1893 the population had grown to the

Statistics given by the governor in

in the state and that 283 creameries
produced 100000 pounds of butter
and 100 cheese factories made 10,500,00(
pounds of cheese, the total value of both
products being given at $7,500,000
That year there also was produced
lumber to the amount of over 1898,

He spoke of the mineral resources al

total iron ore mined Gall from the Yer

However, a railroad was built to the
Mesaba Range the year before but the
figures on ore mined and shipped from
the MeSaba were not available at that
time. 5000 manufacturing institutions
were in the state in 1893 employing
49, 900 with $75,0OO,0OO invested and a
pay roll of $18,OO0,000. In that year
there were 100000 barrels of flour

an adversary in the latter's home COM
munity.
But then along came Gov. Olson
himself with statements along the same
line when he spoke last Saturday night
in Mankato, Regan's home town. The
governor said some nice things about
his Democratic opponent and even re-
minded his hearers that Regain had
supported him two years ago and that
because of their friendship he disliked
to say anything unkind about him.
It was a nice and courteous thing to
do-just as it had been nice and cour-
teous on Browns part to do the very
same thing under similar circumstances
Consequently, it's my guess now that
Chairman Regnier won't try any more
to make voters believe that there is
"conniving" between Brown and Regain
just because the Republican candidate
paid bit of personal compliment to
his Democratic rival. After what hap
pened last Saturday night at Mankato
Regnier might just as logically make
the same charge against his own candi-
date, Gov. Olson.
It's kind of small potatoes" any
how, to try to make political capital out
of perfectly natural exchange of per-
sonal compliments by rival candidates
They can fight with one another for

So far as have been able to hear
or discover, Earle Brown hasn't said an
unkind word against either of his op-
ponents, so if the opposition wants to
make political capital out of the fact
they should be welcome to it-with the
voters judging accordingly.

st. Paul, Oct. Is, 1932.-With the
campaign swinging along at full blast
on every sector, the weeks are slipping
by so fast that Nov will have come
and gone almost before we are aware
of it. The air is heavy now with the
smoke of battle, not to mention the
various smoke screens" that the candi-
dates and stump orators are so busy
telling us about.
Speaking of smoke screens, I'm
sometimes strongly tempted to believe
that the candidate who so vociferously
charges somebody else with throwing
up a smoke screen is himself, by the
very same token, sending out one him.

I'm reminded in this connection OF
somewhat amusing situation, one that
has figured to considerable extent in
the game of pitting smoke screens
against one another.
Emil ~Regnier, Farmer-Labor cam
paign manager, has been quite assidu-
Gus in charging that John Regan's
candidacy for governor is just a smoke
screen to help Earle Brown defeat
Gov. Olson. As a basis for the charge
Sen. Regnier has pointed to the fact
that in speech at the Blue Earth
county fair few weeks ago Mr.. Brown
referred to Mr.. Regain as "a good fell
low" and that he wouldn't say any
thing against him. That was in Re-
gan's home county. 1t was just the
