FORSTROM HOUSE IN
SANDSTONE BURNS

The fire siren sounded in Sandstone
village last Friday forenoon at 1870
when smoke was seen emerging from
the residence of Mr.. and Mrs. John
Forstrom. No one was in the home
at the time and it is thought that
the fire started from gasoline stove.
Fire Chief Herbert A. johnson and
his assistants labored valiantly for
two hours but the flames had gained
such Roadway that the house could
not be saved. The furniture also
went up in smoke. The loss was
partly covered by insurance, the
building being a good six room house
with bath. Mr.. Forstrom operates
an automobile repair shop.

MUST STRIVE TO
BETTER OUR LOT
From so to 80 Per Cent of People are
Farmers or LabOrers, Says
Thompson of Duluth.

Folks in the Sandstone community
organized local Farmer-Labor club
last Friday evening at which time
Sigmond Slonim, Duluth attorney, and
o. E. Thompson, active in the labor
movement for 90 years and last year
campaign manager of the Farmer
Labor party for northeastern Mime
sofa, were the principal speakers. The
meeting was held in the banquet hall
of the Hotel Madison.
The natural laws have been violated
somewhere when in the midst of plen-
ty, in the richest and most powerful
nation on the globe, farmers and
workers have lost their homes by the
hundreds of thousands, said Mr.. Slo-
MIN. A horse does not Starve with
plenty of oats, hay and water. He
said that 81 per cent of the people
own but 10 per cent of the wealth
and 13 per cent of the people own 80
per cent of the wealth. The 81 per
cent vote at the ballot box for the 13
per cent to keep them in luxury and
idleness, and the speaker added that
there must be an organized fight for
better conditions for the masses and a
better world.
Man Made Depression.
Mr.. Thompson said that this is a
man made depression for there is
plenty for everybody with the proper
distribution and we must use our grey
matter to better conditions-use COM
mon horse sense. He discounted the
sentiment that only the conservative
and reactionary elements are capable
of governing, adding that from 80 to
80 per cent of the people of any nation
are farmers or laborers. There will
be temporary relief from the govern
ment but the foundation must be laid
for something better.
Continuing Mr.. Thompson said the
suggestion has been made to throw
out machines and put men to work
If that argument is good, why not put
people to work with knives and forks
J at food? Prices are fixed by industry
and business, therefore farmers anG
| laborers must organize to make de-
mands. Folks talk against govern
ment ownership, but how about the
postoffice with it's one, two and three
cents postage rates? If privately
owned, the rates would be much
higher, said the speaker.
Wants Low Electric Rates.
| Mr.. Thompson also dwelt briefly OF
electric power rates, stating thai
electricity can be produced and solo
at three cents per X. H. to the con
sumner. Comparisons were made be
tween International Falls on the Min
nesota side with its high rates ant
Fort Francis on the Canadian sid'
with its much lower rate curren
from the same power company. Vir
ginia and other Minnesota cities were
cited as having very successful mum
icipal electric power plants, selling t.
consumers at reduced rates and build
ing up surpluses in the municipal
treasures.

and singer, entertained delightful,

NEWS REVIEW
BY GEORG sTRANDvOLD

During the latter part OF July Ger
man airplanes flew over Austria drop
ping pamphlets and other printed
matter which contained bitter attacks
upon the Austrian chancellor, Engel-
bert DOllfuss, and his government.
DollfuSS within recent weeks has
taken very decided stand against
the widespread propaganda of the
German National Socialist party, fear
ing that its ultimate purpose is an
nexation, forbidden by the Versailles
peace treaty and intensely disliked
by the government now in power at
Vienna.
German nazists have not confined
themselves to dropping incendiary
pamphlets, but have also made ex-
tensive use of the government-owned
German radio facilities in order to
inflame the Austrian people against
Dollfuss, through numerous broad
cast speeches.
Finally, the German government
has attempted to place an order for
fifty British airplanes for police pur-
poses."
All of these activities are alleged
to be in violation of the Versailles
peace treaty as we'll as of the re-

ment, signed by Great Britain, Italy,

CO.SignerS Protest.
Early this week the three signatory
powers protested Informally against
the supposed infractions of interna-
tional pacts by the fourth signer, but
no joint representation was made
each of the three great powers sound

OUT OF THE ENVELOPE

DEATRICE HEREFORD, clever monologuist, is
- as gifted in her way as her brilliant brother
Oliver in his. From girlhood she has possessed
an extraordinary faculty for Transforming her
appearance and her personality without the
aid of makeup.
Her father, Rev. Brooke Herford, long time
pastor of the Arlington Street Church in
Boston, took occasion in one-of his sermons to
inveigh against indiscriminate charity, and this
gave his mischievous daughter a cue. That
night, with shawl over her head and a roll of
newspapers under it to represent a boy, she rang
the front door bell of the house and asked to
see the clergyman.
The maid, who did not recognize her. ex-
planned that Rev Mr.. Herford was just sitting
down to dinner, whereupon Beatrice created
such an uproar that her father came out to the
hall to see what was the matter.
Mr.. Herford asked where she lived and told
her where she should apply for aid, but she re-
doubled her outcries, saying her baby was Ill
and that if he sent her away without money
for medicine the childs death would be charge

children in his house, she pressed forward as

from the United States. The first an
nouncement was accepted by miners
with no premonition of evil. England
had gone off the gold standard, as had
the rest of the empire, but gold mining
had been stimulated thereby. It was
anticipated that the same move by the
United States would have a similar re-
suit. Gold shares on the Stock Exchanges
began new surge upward.
The executive order that forbade the
expectation of gold made three excep-
tions: One, to permit the shipment of
foreign-owned gold, held here for re-
export under earmark; two, to pay gold
under foreign exchange contracts made
before the embargo; three, to ship gold
received under bond for tests, separation
from copper or some similar purpose.
There was also provision enabling the
President, at his discretion, to permit the
export of gold "for the public good"
There was no provision for the ex-

portation of newly mined gold, but
miners thought that such shipments
would be permitted under the clause

this provision was not used. Mining
people became uneasy. Their uneasiness
turned to CONSERVATION. They were
aghast. This could not be so. Canada
was off the gold standard, but miners
there received premium for their metal
that brought the price up to the world
level. South Africa was OF the gold
standard, and would not pay premium
for gold, but permitted miners to ship
the metal to London, where it was sold
under the hammer for the prevailing
international price. In Australia the
same situation prevailed. The miners
not only received a premium for their
gold, but also were paid bonus by the
government. This had brought new
squirt to Australian gold mining. Con-
ditions there were similar to what they
