The substitution of wrong
line in the account of Art Mel
sons address to the Rotary
Club as given in the Miner last
week made it appear as If Mr..
Nelson's talk was somewhat
muddled when just the oppo-
site was the case. In diagnos-
ing the economic and political
ills, he said: "Constitutionally
minded citizens should get out
of their sonombolency and
wake up to the fact of the dan
ger to the Constitution and
elect men to office, tried and
true, and not racketeers." He
stated that we elected men to
office, high and low, whom we
would not think of hiring to
transact our private business. y
Sorry, Art, to mess up an excel
lent talk.

this would be rather a drastic
method the anger of a man and
his family after having worked
to make a garden and in many
cases paying rent for the same,
taking the law into his own
hands, can be imagined. Many
are of the opinion that a good
dose of fine shot into the south
end of the thief going north
would be just about right and
have a tendency to stop the
despicable practice of sacking
gardens.
Since writing the above, we
learn that the police have
rounded up two of the "help
yourself" gents. One of them
paid a substantial fine in NUM-
cipal Court and the other is, in
for a stay at Fred Wards work
farm where he will remain un-
til after temptation in the way
of garden produce has been re-
moved by the fall season.

A colored gentleman was porter on
the Ely Drum and Bugle Corps special
pullman coach on the trip to Albert
Lea. He was very efficient fellow
and kept everything spick and span
during the trip. He even extended the
courtesy of keeping the putties and
shoes shined with a mirror-like finish.
On the return trip it was decided to
present the gentleman with suitable
purse in recognition of his careful and
generous service. A hat was passed
around and when one of the corps was
solicited for donation, he said in a
moment of unthinking sincerity. Eyes,
I'm pleased to contribute, he worked

One of the laugh events of the season
was the donkey baseball game Friday
evening between the Junior Chamber
of Commerce and the ArrowheadS. To
see who could be the donkieSt donkey
in donkey baseball was the theme OF
the game, according to rules, and es-
pecially humorous was the animal rode
by Traffic Officer Joe Markovich on
first base.
One of the most lifeless animals that
could be imagined, it stood on the first
base position with ears hung down and
head between the front legs with look
that seemed as if it had lost its last
friend. One of the boys that was in the
know" took one look at the spiritless
animal and remarked, "He must have
just returned from the state convention
at Albert Lea"

ALI. CARRIERS FACE COMMON PROBLEMS.

The transpor. alton needs of the United States
are served by several distinct agencies. Each is
needed-each performs valuable service within its
field.
Efforts to remedy discrepancies in our trans
~portation regulatory policies should be designed 0
aid all carriers-not the railroads alone. 1t is true
that action is essential 10 the preservation Of the
present railroad structure-but it is likewise true
that all other important media of transport are in
a serious position.
Bus and truck systems, for example, are sui
fering from cut-throat practices, due indirectly to
Inadequate regulation. These practices not only
tend to make the cooperation of bus and truck lines
p~rofitless, but hamper logical development and so
jeopardize the interest of the shipping and travelling
public.
Every form of private transportation faces the
problem of government competition. Such compe-
tition already exists in the case of waterways which,
aided by federal and state subsidies, take much
business that would otherwise go to railroads and
trucks. More important yet, if threatened ex-
cursion OF government into the field Of rail trans
port is permitted every ether carrier will feel the
adverse effects-nO private business can compete
with government.
During the present session Of Congress bills
will be considered which, if passed, will put all forms
OF transportation under one regulatory body, and
will treal all alike. Federal CoOrdinator of Trans
p0rtation Eastman is behind these bills. So, ac-
cording to commentators, is President Roosevelt. 50
are responsible railroad, truck and bus executives.
Adoption Of legislation, suitably framed to
provide adequate regulation in the best possible in
terest Of all types OF carriers, is one Of our greatest
present needs.

a car, the pedestrian was entirely to blame.
Tkirty-four per cent of the pedestrians who
were killed because of their own carelessness, were
struck while crossing in The middle of the block or
against traffic signals. Seventeen per cent were
killed while walking on the wrong side of the road.
Eleven per cent Of the pedestrian fatalities involv-
ed children playing in the streets. Nine per cent
of the fatalities resulted from walkers stepping
suddenly out from behind parked cars into the
stream Of traffic. 1t is a significant fact that, in
1894, the rate of death per pedestrian accident was
20 per cent worse crossing in the middle of the
block than at the intersection, and IA percent worse
crossing against signals than with them.
The careless walker, like the careless driver,
constitutes a grave problem that must be definitely
solved if we are 10 lower the automobile toll. The
cure for pedestrian recklessness is purely up to the
individual-all the traffic laws in the world cannot
make a person walk properly on streets and high
ways if he is congeni ally careless. Obey the signals
never cross in the middle of a block-and keep
your eyes open and your mind busy with the
problem Of safely reaching your destination. That
advice amounts to "life insurance. for the pedes
.rian.

FIRE IS NEVER A TEA PARTY.

According to news reports from New York City,
flremen there recently attended a $75, 900 tea party.
They responded to an early morning alarm
and found flames engu~fing a f~ive-story warehouse
stocked with tea. With characteristic skill, they
attacked the fire, using several hose streams. As
the water heated in the flames and filtered down
through the packages, a fine brew Of tea ran out
into the gutter.
Fireman will ;ell you, however, that there
never was a fire that could be considered a "tea
party" Fires bring hard work, d~anger-death.
The National Board of Fire Underwriters re-
ports that thousands Of people lose their lives in
fires annually, while the property loss runs into
hundreds of millions of dollars.
This loss directly concerns everyone-fire NAV
strike anywhere without warning, unless proper
precautions are taken. Check over your property
today. Look for fire hazards in connection with
the chimney, the furnace or stove, the heating
pipes, hot ashes, rubbish and papers, paint or oil
soaked rags, and electric wiring and appliances.
Cheek up on careless habits that invite fire-es-
eclally IN connection with matches and smoking
materials. Train children to be careful. Substitute
safe hablts for your old careless ones.

SUPPORTS FARM cooPERAT1vEs.

In a recent address, A. H. Lauterbach, chief OF
the dairy section of the Agricultural Adjustment,
Administra ion, pointed out that many attacks are
being made against the farm coopertive movement
on the grounds of monopoly"
If farm cooperatives are mOnopolistic, so are
al the organizations which business and industrial
progress, through perfecting producing and selling
methods and cutting costs. Cooperation has been
an established principle in our indus rial life for
genera,ions-and many Of the great strides taken
by industry may be laid to it.
1t is a ma ter of fact that, when an organization
or a movement becomes successful its enemies re-
double their efforts to destroy it. Cooperation
among farmers is succeeding, and those who wish
10 drive the farmer back to the old way of indivi-
duai or local selling, in order that they may prosper
at his expense, are worried. But farm authorities
and the public at large, which wishes to see the
farmer progress and earn a reasonable profit for
his work, are solidly behind the cooperative move
ment.

MR.. JUSTICE HOLMES

MIR. JUSTICE HOLh1E0
The death Of former Supreme Court Justice
Oliver Wendell Holmes, on the eve Of his gath
birthday, brought to a close one Of the mos dlstln-
guished careers of the past century.
In Justice Holmes, the phrase public service"
found its highes. possible meaning. His entire life
was devoted to the welfare of the nation-every
deed. every thought, was actuated by he most
lofty patriotic ideals. His was influence that went
far beyond he law, to which his abilities OF mind
and spirit were primarily dedicated, and found
its reflection in every walk of life, from Civil War
days to the present.
The friends and acquaintance of Justice Holm
es have often paid tribute, not only to his brllllance,
but to his generosity. Many a man who has risen
to a high position in public or private life owes his
start TO encouragement. and teaching given him by
the great jurist, and his unflagging interest IN
Young men with the pc, e~ntialities OF achievement
is well konwn.
Men such as Justice Holmes are rare In any
time-and then seem to be particularly rare IN these
DAYS when expediency, greed, and the lust for power
die. ate the actions Of 50 many Of us. 1t IS not too
much to say that Mr.. Holmes will be
as John Marshall, Franklin, Adams and others are
remembered-as a man who unselfishly served his
coun. ry to the best Of his vast abilities and at the
end of life could look back on great and difficult
tasks well done.

MORE SUPPORT THAN LAST YEAR.

This year there is more support behind the bill
than before and it seems to be increasing each day.
The Ma ional Association for the Advancement of
Colored People reports from New York that it re-
ceived for more than 1000 petition blanks in one
day. Six hundred petitions were requested and
dis, ributed by the Y. w. c. A; 800 by the Women s
International League for Peace and Freedom; 300
for students in southern colleges, both white and
colored; 250 to a special mailing list; 200 to the
Cleveland branch Of the N. A. A. c.. P; 100 to
Danville, Va; 100 to Indian Head, Nd; 80 to the
District Of Columbia branch, n. "A. A.. c.. p; and
numerous shipments Of 10, Is and SO to various
points. Requests for petitions are being received
in New York in every mail and indications are that
hundreds Of thousands Of names will soon be for
warded to Washington.
LEGISLATURES, COUNCILS ENDORSE BILL.
The bill has been endorsed by the New Jersey,
California, Minnesota and Kansas state legislatures;
by the Massachusetts state senate, the Illinois house
of representatives, the New York state assembly
and the Indiana state assembly; also by the city
councils Of Cleveland, o., and Duluth, MINI. The
Akron, O., city council is expected to act upon a
resolution OF endorsement shortly.
Although the support behind the bill is grow
ing in volume, it is not as well co-ordinated and ef-
fective as it might be, observers here point out.
They declare if a little money could be spent in or
ganization, correspondence and personal contact
work, the bill would have better than an even
chance. This observation of veterans around the
