the end Of Summer on the last day
OF October. Festivals were held at
each of these times, but the most
important one was the end of Sum-
mer. It was called Samhain, which
means the death Of Summer. Bon
fires were lit. 1t was q time Of 10y

the suns departure. The people be-
lived that at this time, the sun was

People Voted For Pipe Dreams
Says Democrrtic Paper

Governor Olson in the past, we
know that he does not intend to
carry through but very few of
these promises. Olson has shown
that he is just like any other gov
ernor. He orders out the militia
and shoots down the workers in
order to protect the profiteering
class. From him and his radical
program this class has nothing to
fear. But he knows enough to put
out program that the majority
of the people really want. He was
able to fool the people and they
elected him for another term.
In looking this program of Oh
sons over, we cannot find a thing
that the Democratic party did not
also promise us before the cleo
ton. All these things are Just
what the majority of the people
want, and they voted the way they
did in hopes of getting it. They
voted Democratic.
Now the election is over, the
victory has been won, the people
have been fooled once more and
the Democratic tune is now a diff
ferent one. After printing the
Olson program, the Helena indie
pendent winds up its editorial by
saying: evil the legislature of
Minnesota let Olson get away with
such pipedream? We seriously
doubt it."
The Independent need not worry
about Olson. It is very little he
intends to "get away with" The
ones who have a reason to do a
little worrying are those who vot-
er for something they thought was
worth while, and they will now
wake up and find that what they
voted for were but empty prom
ises, put out by the Democratic
party as bait to catch voters with.
Now they come out and tell US it
is nothing but a pipedream.
