Reports have come to us from e v

Danielson's best friends are opposed
to his election rs county commission
err They recognize that he is a good
citizen with 3 splendid reputation for
honesty and fair dealing, but they
cannot see him as a Communist We
have never met the Communist candi-
date, but from what We learn from
his friends, Magnus DanieIson is NOT
q Communist He is a Christian
gent1eman-an active worker in the
Lutheran church and that doesn't
go with Communism or Gommunistic
teachings These friends, however,
know only too well that, regardless of
how far Mr. Danielson's own convic-
tons are removed from Communism,
if elected he will be absolutely ruled
by Taylor and Salisbury. He Will not
be free to act according to the die
tates of his own conscience, but, like
Commissioner Carl Hanson, will re-
ceive his orders from the Communist

declare, rather than place q man of

at the end of the half, but the end of
the game found McGrath in the lead
with a score of II to 9. The boys
score at the half was 10 to 8 in Will
lows favor. Skillful passing kept
them in the lead, and the game ended
with score of SO to 15 Friday, Feb.
5. the local teams met the Bruno
teams here. The girls were unable to
hold their opponents and lost the
game. The boys, however, established
new record by holding the Bruno
boys to a single free shot. Scoring
was easy throughout the game, the
count being 26 to at the half. Bru-
no succeeded in getting its single
point in the first quarter, and was
held scoreless throughout the rest of
the game. The Willow boys showed
excellent teamwork, and worked in
enough baskets to bring the final
score up to 43 to 1.

Mr.. Trego gave the club mem
bers the thrill of their lives
with stories of his adventures
on the island of Bali, just off
the coast of Java.
According to Mr.. Trego the
island is in reality an isle Of
Paradise" where no one ever
works or worries. You don't
have to. If you are hungry all
you have to do is go out in your
backyard and pull a bread fruit
off a bread fruit tree, turn
around and pluck a few ba-
nanas off another tree and sit
down to dinner. It's all very
simple.
CIubbers Invited

members of the Adventure Club,

BASKETBALL is
FRIDAYS FEATURE
ASkOv High School Boys and Town
Team Will Play Last Games of
Season on Home Floor.

The Sandstone high school boys
basketball team will come to Askov
Friday night, March II, to play a re-
turn engagement with the Askov boys
as one of double header of games
arranged for Askov fans as the last
game with outside teams of the sea-
son. The other game will be played
between the fast Willow River high
school boys team who was runner
up in the Hinckley district tourna-
ment, and the Askov All Stars.
The latter two teams have never
met and it will be interesting to see
how a we'll coached team like Willow
Rivers boys can compete on the bas-
ketball floor with a town team. The
Willow River team generally has
good size and will undoubtedly make
things merry for the Askov ball tos-
serS.
The Askov band will furnish
music and lunch will be sold follow
ing the games. These will be the
last games of the season with outside
teams and the proceeds will go
to pay for the new scarlet and white
uniforms the boys will wear on this
night.
The Askov high school boys were
defeated by Sandstone in a previous
engagement but they have come
back" and will make it very interest
ing when the Quarry City five comes
to town. Especially will the Askov
boys play good basketball for they
will be playing the last game of their
careers with Otto Jensen, AXel Ander-
sen and Thorvald Andersen who will
graduate this year and leave the
team. Then too they will be bios
somed out in their bright new uni
forms. The latter feature alone
should be we'll worth the price of ad-
mission, it is opined by some of the
girls.
Athletics Have Paid Way.
Athletic activities in the Askov
school, Coach Vernon Anderson in
formed a representative of the Amer
lean, have paid their own way so far
this year and not a cent has come
from other sources, thus making it
successful in the first year of inter-
school conference basketball compe-
tition.
Tickets for the games Friday night
will be sold by students and some will
be on sale at the Bakery and Amer
lean Publishing Co. offices. Lunch
will be sold to help defray expenses.
The first game will start at 1880 p.
m. and Edward Therrien of Pine City,
will referee. An advertisement an
nounces the event in another column
of this issue.

Senator and Governor
From Wisconsin on Air
Continued from Page ~
Record Is Good.

Amongst some of the accomplish
ments during the regular session of
the 1881 Wisconsin legislature may
be mentioned the following: Exemp-
ton from taxation of farm personal
property to the extent of $4,000, 600;
compulsory old age pension law; jury
trials in contempt cases; and tele-
phone tax bill under which telephone
companies will pay more nearly their
fair share of the tax burden.
During the special session of the
legislature which recently came to a
close the governor fought hard to
gain his detectives in behalf of the
people. While he did not accomplish
all he set out to do he nevertheless
put over the bulk of the program,
in spite of a Senate that was II to
16 against him. The lower house
was more friendly to the LaFollette
program. The governor went before
the people through the newspapers he
could get into and over the radio and
in no uncertain terms told the people
how their senators were voting on the
relief bill, the cost of which was to
be paid for out of income taxes and
which would help lower real estate
taxes. There was good example of
leadership, for the senators heard
from home and the result was that
more of them voted for a program
which up to that time they had
scoffed at.
Beneficial Legislation.
The relief bill passed in the special
session of the legislature provides for
emergency forestry work for the I'M
employed, levies emergency tax upon
individual incomes, provides emer-
bency licensing of chain stores, and
provides for an emergency extension
of the redemption period of mort
cages.
The fee for chain store licenses was
set as follows: Ten dollars for each
store in excess of one but not to eX-
coed five; twenty dollars for each
store in excess of five but not to ex-
coed ten; thirty-five dollars for each
store in excess of ten but not to ex-
coed twenty; fifty dollars for each
store in excess of twenty.
In an action commenced prior to
January 1, 1884, in which judgment
of foreclosure and sale has not been
entered at the time the Wisconsin
act for emergency extension of re-
demptiOn period in mortgage fore
closures, took effect, the one year
period specified in section 27S1O of
the statutes shall be extended to two
years but in no event beyond JAN
uary 1, 1886, provided the person
entitled to redeem the mortgaged
premises shall pay all insurance
premiums as provided in the mortgage
and all taxes on the mortgaged prop
erty accruing after such judgment, be-
fore they become delinquent, and
shall also pay on or before the expira-
ton, of one year from the date of
such judgment, one years interest
thereon.
Remember, you are afforded the op-
portunity of hearing the voices of the
two LaFollettes over the air Monday
evening, March IA.
