THE ROLE of historian in this day of
commercialism and speed is one for
which there is little thanks and almost
no chance of profit, yet the occasional man
or woman who makes history hobby serves
his community well.
With old settlers rapidly passing and
the memories of the few who saw the coun-
ty in it's infancy growing dim, it is import
ant that what facts can be established be
preserved in writing so that the children of
generations to come may know something
of their forefathers, the men who developed
prosperous farms and towns on this prairie
land.
H. NJ Hitchcock, former Redwood Falls
man now living in Minneapolis, is one citizen
who thrills at the discovery of some new
fact concerning the early years as deeply as
others might thrill at the discovery of gold.
He has taken pictures and dug up facts Of
great value and has stimulated the interest
of many others in matters of history.
Mr.. Hitchcock is entitled to consider
able credit and the help of all capable of
helping in his efforts to compile matters of
history and place them in the hands of
school children and available to adults at
libraries.

7 AYING foundation for the presidential
campaign which is now only months
away, midwest Republicans attacked
most phases of the new deal" and Roose-
veltism at their meeting this week in Spring
field, Illinois.
Like all men who do or attempt to do
things, the president was vulnerable on
many points, all of which the convention
covered in 10 indictments. Many of the
charges will be argued pro and con at great
length in the months to come and it is poss-
ible that even more will be added to the list.
Undoubtedly the president will be sur
prised that only Is points were mentioned,
although they are broad points, and he may
be relieved to get them in the open and UNI
der one heading where he and his lieuten-
ants can answer them.
After two years of comparative quiet,
the critics of the administration have been
busy for several months and will no doubt
double and triple their activity as the con-
ventions and the election approach. While
this will materially retard progress of new
deal enterprises, it is one of the features of
our system of government with which the
party in power is always forced to contend.

MINNEAPOLIS Votes

4 LMOST halfway between state political
~ campaigns, the election of mayor in
Minneapolis this week holds unusual
interest as an indicator of the direction of
political winds.
Elected by $1,000 majority, Farmer
Laborite Thomas E. Latimer has removed
all doubt as to sentiment in the states larg-
est city. It still believes in the principles of
This is no doubt encouraging to Cover
nor Olson who plans to step into the race
for United States senator against Thomas
Schall, incumbent, or whoever the Republic
ans may nominate, and some unnamed Dem
ocrat.
It is encouraging also to Elmer A. Ben
son, commissioner of banks, who is the fav-
orite candidate in many FL circles to re-
place Governor Olson and to many lesser
lights who will seek places in other state Of
fees and in the senate and house.
The adherence to the party in power in
the state may be interpreted as an indorse-
ment of the governors attitude toward the
sales tax, the major issue of the last legis-
lative session, and on lesser issues, By the
same reasoning, the coalition seems not to
have built political following at least in
the Mill City.
Faced with this situation, which must
be admitted whether one likes it or not, it
will not be surprising to hear talk again soon
about the old parties uniting on a slate Of
candidates, the dream of the last campaign.
Judged by past experience, the Farmer-Lab-
orites have little to worry about on this
score

Building In Progress

\ NYONE looking for encouraging signs
~ of the times needs only to drive through
the residential sections of Redwood
Falls More construction work is in pro-
gross than at any time in recent years.
The ACCESSIBILITY of building while prices
continue reasonable and the public spirited
ness OF launching projects at this time has
been highly publicised through newspapers
and magazines, working with local and fed
eral loaning agencies and contractors, and
The Gazette is proud to have had part in
the campaign.
The extent to which employment has
been made available by the contraction work
is indicated by the fact that masons, car
penters, plumbers, painters, electricians and
others of the building trade are over-burd-
ened with work for the first time in many
seasons and forced to rush from one job to
another in the daytime and figure on new
jobs after darkness haltS other work. It is
novel circumstance for most of them.
Building material dealers, home fur
nishers and supply men of similar lines find
their stocks moving out at an unusual pace.
Hardest hit during the depression, they are
enjoying recovery more thoroughly as a re-
suit
The building revival means more than
this for it is an indication that confidence is
no longer lacking. Money is being invested
in homes, for the owners use and for rent
al, in sufficient quantity to partly relieve
the shortage of housing facilities that has
crippled the growth of the city.
Furthermore it is unlikely that the
building now in progress is mere squirt, to
be followed at once by another lull. All that
was needed was few brave persons to start
the revival. There is always more incentive
to remodel when neighbors are remodeling,
just as one person in a neighborhood who
takes pride in the appearance of his lawn
stimulates others to greater care. Likewise
when friends are about to move into fine
new home, others are more apt to become
interested in a home of their own.

Creditable too is the decision Of authori-

By these two methods of dealing with
traffcers in this most odious of crimes, it is
possible to get rid of them and discourage
others from such attempts. Compromising
criminals is one sure way of having them
always with us.
