SPITE OF FAMINE

Russia's five-year industrial plan
as a military measure was a success,
according to Dictator Stain; but
while the factories were producing
"on a mass scale all the weapons of
Defense" the great majority of the
people went through two Russian
winters without shoes. Stain adj
mitted in q recent address, of which
an offici copy was delivered to the
Associated Press, that "In order to
change over to basis for producing
defense materials, many of our fac
tories were forced to go out of oper-
alton for four months"
Reports from neutral observers are
to the effect that among these fac
tories were the ones where shoes for
the people were manufactured. Ad-
hitting this shortage in shoes, and
clothes also, Stain made the follow
ing excuse: 1--WE all know we have
produced less than was needed, re-
sulting in well-known difficulties, but
consider the consequences of post
poning our heavy industrial produc-
ton in favor of making more shoes.

During this same period, while the
country was dashed to greater pro-
duction of war material grain was
forcibly taken from the peasants in
the great wheat-growing districts in
order to feed the industrial workers
The country was stripped bare and
the peasants who had produced the
grain left to starve. cable repro

that "Practically all Russia's peas

Granny" Brown

a MINISTER'S wife was Granny"
4 \ Brown. one at least whose life
of untlagging devotion and sacrifice
has not been left unsung.
When her husband, the Reverend
Ivory Brown of Brownstield, Maine,
enlisted in the Union army at the be-
ginning of the Civil war, his wife Mary
was determined to accompany him.
Her services were kindly but firmly
refused at the recruiting offices. There
upon she walked with determination
into headquarters, took off her hat
and coat, and set about motherng the
raw recruits there gathered to await
marching orders. And when her nus
bands regiment, Company M, Thirty
first Maine Volunteers, left for the
front, Mrs. Brown somehow or other
managed to go along, "just as intend
ed to from the very first" she later
/ boasted.
"There was plenty of reason to be-
lieve a kind Providence had guided
my footsteps" she said many years
later. II found great deal to do and
heard no complaints about having
woman around! washed, cooked
4 sewed, ironed, tidied up, and nursed
for officers and men alike and was
fully repaid in the ardent apprec1-
alton of all those good men,"
But Mrs. Brown was not satisfied
with service behind the lines. when
my husband was on picket duty" she
said, II took his place in the ranks and
have stood many and many a night
with my eighty rounds of bullets, all
of which fired at the enemy Again
l did my turn at picket duty when my
husband was in the ranks. Following

soldiers. doing all could to comfort
them and ease their suffering"
Mrs Brown would also tell of the
meetings she and her husband held
in the camps and in the ranks. He
was the preacher and assisted him
she said. He had many converts.
At one time this remarkable woman
cared for fifteen men at one time in
the field hospital at Burchville station
never leaving them except when she
took short periods of sleep. And wher
he husband was wounded, she accom-
panied him to the hospital in Wash
ington and not only cared for him bu
relieved the other nurses in thell
heavy tasks.

Brown related with pride, she wa

pened to House Bill 6, but during
that session there was a Democratic
house and a Republican senate with
a Republican secretary, Leland
FishbaCk. l am not saying that
Fishback had anything to do with
House Bill 6, but he had as much
opportunity as did Heller.

the circumstances surrounding the

ator to cast a negative vote on the
final selection of Heller.
1t was later announced that senate

Ter Decatur publisher
Echoes Of the scandal involving
the utility-backed House Bill 6
which was passed improperly in the
1881 session were heard during the
debate on Heller who was chief
house clerk at that time.
Because Senator Chester A.
Perkins. Of South Bend. who led the
attack on Heller, is a native Of the
same city as Frank Mayr Jr, sec
rotary Of state, many professed to
see the latter as backing the fight.
House Contests Are Quiet
This view apparently is encour-
aged by those anxious to fan the
flames of the feud between Mayr
and r. Earl Peters, Democratic
state chairman.
Those elected as senate officials
are Heller, secretary; Clyde Snoddy
Of Bloomington, postmaster, and
James Morrissey of Peru, chief
doorkceper.

but none was bitter. John Ryan

charged Perkins as he sketched in
the circumstances concerning House
Bill 6.
1T was under the direction of

FEDS GOT THEIR
MEN BUT NEARLY

A. P. Nolander, federal prohibition
agent in charge of the Mankato Of
fee, got the Sleepy Eye men he was
after May 10 but he almost lost the
evidence.
Joe Heymans and August N. Theo-
bald were arrested late that night
while driving car which contained
five gallons of alcohol, according to
the Mankato officials.
The alcohol was tossed on the floor
in the back of the car and the de-
PENDANTS were ordered into the rear
seat after being handcuffed together.
Mr.. Nolander and another agent were
in front. And the car started back
to Mankato.
Despite the fact they were hand
cuffed together, the two men man.
aged to dump the alcohol from the
window of the car, one can at a time.
By the time they had arrived at the
Jail their job had been completed.
AS he was about to let the men out,
Nolander noticed the absence of the
precious cans. Then the fireworks
started. Where had the alcohol
gone? Etc.-etc. A. P. was in
frenzy. And then another car, bear
ing more federal agents who had fol-
lowed the first car in from Sleepy
Eye, drove up.
Nonchalantly one Of the officers
walked over to the frothing Noland-
err and said, Here's your alcohol. We
picked it up as fast as they dumped
it out"
Both men were arraigned Thursday
before E. Raymond Hughes, United
States commissioner and were bound
to the June term of federal court at
Mankato. Heymans' bond was set at
$500 and Theobald's was fixed at
$4,000. They were charged with
possession and transportation of in
toxicatng liquor.
