(The Mile Laos Messenger)

(The Mile Laos MeSSenger)
Here in this country we have fall
len for the bluff that in order to pros
per we must have our business tran
sacted by sO-called captains of in
dustry and permit them to make mil
lions of dollars as reward. Our
whole system of business is based on
the assumption that a smart and cap
able man is necessarily supremely
selfish man. Put in the language of
the time, we are told that we cannot
enlist the efforts of these truly great
business geniuses without 1.-The hope
of individual reward" We are asked
to look up to and respect men who
proceed on exactly the same lines as
the schoolboy who won't play unless
he can be captain. SO long have we
accepted this system that we are vir-
tually slaves to the powerful few who
control the wealth that was created
by the labor of the last century. And
when profits are no longer certain
enough or large enough to interest
them they withdraw into their holes,
taking their money with them.

Editor Askov Americana:
Through the columns of this paper
Ludwig Mosb3k extended an invi, "a
ton to all interested to attend the
meetings held every Friday evening
in the office of the Ferndale Nursery.
The attendance at these meetings has
not been as good as could be expected
and the reason is apparently that peo-
pie do not understand the purpose for
which these meetings were started
The purpose of these meetings is
to get together and discuss problems
of general interest, the eby BROADEN
our views, educate ourselves about
current topics and cOnsequen ly al oUse
q greater interest in and a better
understanding of our duties and priv
iligeS as citizens of democratic
country.
At our next meeting we intend to
form an organization to carry on this
work. No rules for this organization
or name for same have been decided
upon so come and voice your opinion
as to what rules shall be adopted
Mr.. Mosbak is inviting everyone
who is interested to come. Your poll
tical viewpoint makes no difference
If you are old enough and not too old
to be interested in the welfare Of
the community and country you live
in, come and give CT gain. The spa

We suggest to Sem Moses and his

around to abolishing the railroad pass
i'm Wisconsin over quarter century
ago. Then, under the leadership of
the late Sen. LaFollette. Progressive
attacked and smashed the power of
the railroads over legislation, and one
of their first victories was to stop
the pass racket. Our western and
midwestern states were quick to fol-

SPORTSMEN M E E T AT
BRUNO MONDAY NIGHT

The North Pine Specimens club
convened at Bruno Monday evening
for the third meeting since its or
ganization The program featured an
interesting and encouraging talk by
Judge Harry Dart Of Proctor, promi-
nent in sport circles, and an intro
ductory talk and film presentation Of
wild Life" by Sidel B. Swenson, Of
the State Game and Fish department.
With these two special features the
meeting was an especially delightful
one, and one point given by Mr.. Sven
son struck home" in true fashion.
The farmer who is in dire need" he
said. believes that he should be al
lowed the privilege of killing deer
when he needs the meat. On the
other hand. though we have many
poor families in the cities who are
suffering severely from the cold.
would we feel justified in letting them
cut down the trees in the parks in
order to use them for firewood?"
talk by a member of the club was
given as follows:
For us to function as a club, work
ing for the good of everyone, we must
work together. Our meetings must
be meetings of Legislation and discus
sion. Never hold back a thing which
you think should be said, be it COM
plimentary or not. Recently, at a
special meeting of the councillors,
which men were elected at our last
group meeting with no adverse opin-
ions given, a resolution was formu-
lated, not in the name of the club, but
in the name of the councillors. Short
ly thereafter, comments, favorable and
unfavorable, were heard Yet but one
man brought his complaint to a men,
Der of the council He did right!
A few others talked it about among
themselves, and radically and force
fully condemned the council, and I'M
justly. My point is this-Get the
facts before you condemn! You're
at perfect liberty to ask any member
OF the council regarding any bust
ness at any time.
Don't condemn all wardenS. Don't
work for your own end. Work for the
enjoyment and help of everyone. This
is sport club, and club meant Meth
er for total destruction of game nor
for the total abolition of hunting
Moderation is what we want, and mod
Grafton is what we ought to have

Waseca Herald: The fact that the
American people are very anxious to
learn more about public questions
than is given them in the partisan
press has been demonstrated in St.
Paul during the past two weeks. In
the Sunday sermons broadcaSted by
Rev. Charles K. Coughlin from Royal
Oak, Mich, a suburb of Detroit, he
has told some unpleasant truths about
prominent public men and an effort
was promptly made to prevent his
talks from being heard over KSTP, a
twin city radio station. The station
asked the opinion of the radio lis
teners as to whether they wanted the
sermons or not. The result was aston
fishing. The station Offices were
swamped with a flood of letters. The
management announced last Sunday
that out of 100000 replies received,
all but less than 500 requested that
the sermons be continued. This is
one instance in which big business
and few bigots have not been able
to stifle the voice of a militant
preacher who is pleading the cause
OF the plain American citizens.
