TUo Couples Married.

Judge Edwin Toms performed two
marriage ceremonies last week and feels
that if this business keeps up the de-
preston is licked Those who saw him

that he does the job most artistically

marriages in consequence.
On Friday he united Edwin Caron

host of friends. The bride is the

Fire Warming!

Due to the fishing season OPEN
ing, there will be more fishermen
in the woods.
The Minnesota Forest Service
would appreciate the cooperation
of all fishermen and others going
into the woods, by putting your
camp fires out and extinguishing
all unattended camp fires. Don't
throw cigarettes and matches
away unless you are sure they are
out as they may start forest fires.
Report all unauthorized fire to
the nearest Ranger, or Patroiman.
Low humidity and high winds
with our forests In a dry con-
dition, cause a high fire hazard,
which is dangerous to the public,
their forests and game. With the
public's cooperation, unnecessary
fires will not be started.
The issuing of burning permits
have been discontinued in this
district for all burning.
A. M. ERICKSON, Ranger.

GAME KILL
LAST fall
All Records For Big Game Kill
Smashed Last Fall-St.
Louis County Led.

According to the report of Game and
Fish Commissioner Stewart all records
were broken last fall in the big game
kill in the state.
st. Louis County was way out in
front with the estimated number of
hunters. A total of 10,376 have re-
ported for this county. Other favored
! counties were Pine with an estimated
1888 hunters, Koochiching with 1854
Itasca 1890, and Aitkin 1900.
| Other counties in which deer hunting
was permitted last fall were Becker,
Beltrami, Carlton, Cass, Clearwater,
Cook, Crow Wing, Hubbard, Kama
bee, Kittson, Lake, Lake of the
Woods, Mahnomen, Marshall, Mile
Laos, Pennington, Red Lake and
RoSeau.
A total of $4,000 big game licenses
were sold with reports from county
auditors practically complete says Fins,
Feathers and Fur, the official organ of
the state game and fish department.
license reports have been received from
24,323 hunters to date, making the per-
centage of reports trifle less than so
per cent.
An interesting result is determined
by the report, the fact that male deer
taken outnumber females about two to
one. Among adult deer, the totals were
81 OH males and 1884 females while
fawns taken total 1894 males as COM
pared to 2,844 females. Itasca County
is the only county in the state where
the one-buck provision is in effect.
The report shows that 1884 deer
were taken as compared to an estimated
kill for 1890 of 27,810. The new high
mark indicated the preseason pre-
diction of executives of the division that
deer were more numerous in the nor
thern woods than for a period of 40
years.
A total of 256 bear were taken last
season, Is of which were reported for
st. Louis county. As only about SO per
cent of those securing licenses have re-
ported the totals may be somewhat in
creased when full returns are in
According to the figures in the table
printed in the official paper, st. Louis
county led the state in both licenses
issued and kill reported. The reports
from this county showed 4,734 killed
and 443 showed no game taken out of
the 5,188 reports received. 2,435 of the
deer killed according to reports sent
in were male deer and 1879 female
deer. OF fawns taken, SIG were male
and 344 females.
In commenting on the record kill,
w. D. Stewart, commissioner of game
and fish said: I'm spite of the large
number of deer killed during the
last season, we are able to report a
very satisfactory deer herd for breeding
purposes remaining within the confines
Of our state. Game wardens have re-
ported that our deer population is en-
couraging for even better open seasons
in the very near future"

ward the enemy His steel helmet was
tilted down over determined eyes. An
unseen machine gun sprayed his path
with death, but he went forward for

fell. They buried him after the wave
of battle had swept by, and peoples
sprang up around his grave. His
victorious comrades, returning to
America, brought memories and the

JAPANESE AT
PEIPINC GATE:
CHINESE FLEE
Treacherous Generals
Withdraw Southwark

SHANGHAI, May 23-Japanese
troops have now entered the city Of
Peiping and are guarding the Japa-
nese quarter. Japanese patrols are
now rowing the city.
japanese occupation looms in the
near future since the Japanese have
sent 80 cases of gasoline by truck to
Peiping to fuel 200 motor trucks,
which will be used during their stay
within the city.
General Ho Wing Ching. Chinese
War Minister. refuted reports that an
armistice had been signed, and con
firmed the Japanese announcement
that all their forces were operating
on all fronts. The Chinese militarists
have withdrawn all Chinese troops
from the city, and retreated to
Chang Sintein, seven miles south
west Of Peiping.
This practically closes a campaign
which cost the Chinese $4,000 lives
though there is no knowledge of what
the Japanese losses were. The Chi
1ese militaristS have consistently re-
treated since the beginning of the
campaign, which started with the
entering of Jehol by the japanese.
The Chinese generals have done
nothing to defend their territory and
as soon as the Japanese have ad-
vanced they retreat. Whatever re-
sistance the Japanese have met has
been that of the private soldiers in
the field.

/ tentiOn of all Socialists to a great
difference between the last war that
was supposed to make the world safe
fer democracy, and the war that now
threatens to break over France. The
essential difference is this. The World
War was a struggle for export mar
kets between capitalistic nations of
all political complications. The war
now Threatening will be more purely
political in its nature and will be in
fact u struggle in which the block
of middle European dictatorships
seek TO extend Dictatorship as poll
teal system, by force. into the de-
mocratic countries of the West.
The outlook is made more menac-
ing by the fact that Russia, with
its vast natural resources and man
power, lies adjacent to the dictator
ships On the East The government
that could sell oil to the japanese
navy for War on republican China
can with an equally clear Communist
conscience sell oil to the German
army for war on republican France.
All the relationships are brothers
under the skin, and where immediate
commercial interest comedies with
political interest, their alliance seems
practically certain.
Against the United Front Of the
relationships will stand the great de-
nocratic republic, defended, / have
little doubt, by every native son, save
the few and discredited Communists
The French peasants and workers are
too intelligent too, realistic in their
attitude toward life, and too much de-
voted to their mother country to
dodge behind any lofty pacifist ideals
if a Fascist army were to invade
France
But can they depend upon any
help from without? Their little de-
mOcratic neighbors will be forced bv
their own defenseless state to main
tain strict neutrality. The English

The labor movement itself-are 50

OVer 100 German Workers Murdered
in April; 46 Bodies in Morgue

BERLIN, May 23.-The Fascist
Prussian government has issued the
lying statement that only two poll
teal murders were committed in
April and that this success is not
only sign Of the calm political sit
uation owing to the destruction of
the Communist movement and the
strengthening of the national govern
ment, but also successful work of the
Prussian police"
This official lie is refuted by the
fact that there are more than 100
known cases Of revolutionary workers
killed by the Nazis in April alone.
Only a few Of the instances printed
in the German capitalist press Itself
prove the untruth of the Official Nazi
statement. The Berlin "VOSsische
