&N. &ANS'

SANTA MONICA, Aug. 2. (Spe-
caldwell, haven't got much
time to do any editorializing to-
day. Tomorrow Saturday the
big world championship cowboy
contest starts and I am busy
setting on the fence blathering
with 'em. (Which is about all I
can do along cowboy sports
line.) Some of 'em are right
from my home range in Okla
homa and I think learned to
rope on some of my stock. It's
like baseball-its a sport you can
attend and not know that it's
not "in the bag" You can't put
a calf or bucking horse in a bag.
It's not like prize fighting or
wrestling where the loser gets a
big slice, too. Nobody is paid a
nickel but the winners. Depres-
sion hit everything but horse
back riding. There was never
as many people riding and in
terested in ranch life but I must
get back to my blathering. Nov
Crosby can you?"
Yours.

An intense earthquake shock, whose
center was 1,400 miles away, was
recorded at 6:35 a. m. today (8:06

to fears that the shock was a ma

We Run a Department Store

Last week man came into this office
with blood in his eye, a couple of dollar bills
clutched in his hand, and thorough deter
mination to assert the righteousness of his
anger.
He was angry. Not plain angry but
just hopping mad. It seems there had been
something in the paper he didn't like, some
editorial comment which marched in icy
tread down the marrow of his backbone.
And so he stopped his paper-wouldnt have
the dirty sheet come into his home again.
It was not an unusual incident,-such
things happen once Of twice in every news
paper office in the average year. Some
times they happen more or less often, de-
pending on how outspoken, how brave or
how tactless an editor may be.
But the incident gave us cause to re-
fleet. Your home town newspaper is, after
ALL rather elaborate department store
with items designed to appeal to every
age and taste. Sports, editorial matter, So
ciety items, rural correspondence each has
it's own particular following.
Likewise, each store on Main street
carries number of items, hoping that that
one or at most few will appeal to every
customer. Now it happens that we don't
like limburger cheese. Possibly something
faulty in our makeup, but we just don't
like it. And yet Mr.. Behnke sells Gmburg-
er,-rank odiferous limburger. And we
continue to buy from Mr.. Behnke, buying
what we prefer and not boycotting him be-
cause he sells limburger.
And our wife quite often buys little
something at Cristy's,-to an extent, in
fact, which has definite bearing on the fami-
ly budget. Yet our good friend Mr.. Cristy
has in stock dresses so ill-adapted to our
wife's face and figure that there'd be an
ugly family scene if she toted one home. So
she doesn't, but chooses items which agree
with her taste and all goes well.
But that same "choosy' selection OF
items doesn't seem to apply to the printed
department store which this office edits and
issues each week, probably because we sell
each customer not one item or two, but
sample of every item in the store.
So, if the editorials clash with your
taste, turn to the front page or the sports
If the broken slugs have strong limburger
smell and you don't like that odor, turn to
the want ads. Remember, we offer you for
slightly over three cents choice OF every
item on our menu. Please don't kick If you
don't like them all-Post, Waupaca, Wis
cOnSin.

Public Won't Be Damned

Editor Palmer Holman of The Mime
tonka Herald at Wayzata is to be thanked
for the service he rendered in his victorious
fight against the justice of the peace out
there, who had it in his head that he was
conducting a personal service business or
something.
Mr. Holman could not get to look at the
records and dockets of the justice. The
justice felt that it was his business to de-
termine what was. and what was not, news.
It was another little obscure case of the pub
lie be damned, policy pursued by peanut
offceholders in many localities of the state.
Exhausting his capacities as a diplomat,
finding that gentlemanly requests got him
nowhere fast, Holman at last took the mat
ter to the attention of the courts. The re
suit was a prompt mandamus from the Hen
nepin County District Court, ordering the
learned justice in question to step off his
big toe and allow Mr.. Holman, or any other
citizen. to examine his records at any rea-
sonable time.
The newspaper profession owes MIR. Hol-
man a debt of gratitude for taking the trou-
BILE and going to the expense OF setting the
record straight on this point, and it is as
sumed that all other village, town and coun-
ty officials-too many of whom take the er-
roneous position that the people who elect
them and pay the taxes from which they
draw their salaries have no rights.-wlll
take notice of the Wayzata case.-The Hen
nepin County Review (Hopkins).

Park I Project At
Dawson Approved

Dawson's park project which
will give employment to over 100
men was approved last week and
work is expected to start soon.
The new park will be located on
city land at the east edge of Daw-
son and will be erected at cost
of $85, ,796.OO of which $3,702.42
must be paid by the city.
Plans call for grading and beau
flying of the property. A drive
way will be constructed and foot
paths built throughout the park.
The plans also call for a football
field, tennis court, a running track,
baseball field, horseshoe courts, a
children's playground, an auto
parking lot, band shell, swimming
pool and many other conveniences.

Community Trouble

TOT A GREAT distance from Redwood
nj Falls is town about it's size which has
a good trade area, good stores, some
small industries and apparently about every
thing it takes to keep town moving Ior-
ward.
Some years ago after two and three
newspapers had tried in vain to make hv-
ing there, consolidation was brought about
and one good newspaper employing as many
neonle reaching the same number of sub
scribers and serving the merchants more
economically and effectively was the result.
There also was one good theatre, occasional
lv filled but always adequate, reasonable IN
price and well up on pictures.
But the editor and the theatre owner
had difficulties. Instead of settling them
peaceably. the gap grew wider. Finally the
theatre man withdrew all his advertising
and job printing from the newspaper. The
editor, still madder, solicited and obtained
advertising from theatres in surrounding
towns.
Madder than ever, the theatre man en-
couraqed a new paper to start in the field.
Not to be outdone, the editor, we suspect,
had something to do with the starting OF
second theatre there last week.
On first thought it might appear that
a quarrel is causing this town to grow and
progress. It has two more industries than
it had year ago. But the facts more pro-
badly are or eventually will be that where
two firms were doing well, paying their bills,
able and willing to support community al
fairs, employ and pay good wages to several
heads of families and serve the community
economically, now their income is divided
with prospects of bitter competition, set
back for all four and probably the eventual
ruin of at least two.
The moral of the story isn't just that
theatre men and editors should be friends.
It goes farther than that and takes in men in
every line. Petty quarrels between busi-
ness and professional men are detriment
to a community It is wise to avoid them.

Tries to Whip Officer;
Finds 1t Hard Task

Luverne-Erwin Noble of Lu-
verne seems to have difficulty in
keeping out of trouble. Recently
he landed in the tolls of the law
for the third time when he was
arrested by Night Watchman
Hans Thompson.
While making his rounds at
night, the officer tried the door of
the Luverne Oil company and not
iced that a window had been brok-
en-. In the shadows he saw a
form skulking away and waited.
In a few minutes Noble started to
prowl around the rear of the sta
ton and Hans grabbed him. Noble
put up a hard fight but drew the
short end with the big officer. He
had been arrested twice previous
ly and has served sentences for
driving a car while intoxicated
and for resisting an officer.

All Liable

THREE MEN went on fishing trip, one
furnishing the car, the others contri-
buting to the expenses of the trip. They
had an accident. A person in the other car
was injured badly and sued for damages.
The judge ruled that since they were shar-
ing expenses, the passengers as well as the
owner of the car were responsible for the
damage.
This in brief is story which came out
of Jackson, Minnesota, recently. 1t clearly
indicates the necessity of having adequate
liability insurance not only on your car but
of making sure that the friends with whom
Won ride have taken equal precautions.

An Effort Needed

THEIR production and profits seriously
impaired by labor troubles in large in
dustrial centers, good many factories
of various types are casting about for suit
able sites in conveniently located small cit
les that are willing to make an effort to get
them and to insure them reasonable protec-
ton, not against their own employees but
against reds from the outside who stir up
trouble.
Where a few years ago the best any
small town could hope to do was to obtain
an occasional marginal plant with high
hopes and promises but limited capital, to-
day some towns are grabbing off branches
of established firms whose sales outlets in
sure their ability to provide year-round en-
ployment for a good many people.
Naturally, since they are running away
from labor troubles, these plants will not
risk getting into more difficulties. They are
going where strikes are unknown and where
the public is not likely to tolerate them with
out reason.
New Ulm picked off garment company
in July which last week was employing
nearly 100 women and girls, paid by the
piece, with prospects of more jobs as fast as
new machines can be installed. The payroll,
which even in the year of the plants open
ing promises to exceed $4,000 will circulate
in Brown county. The families will live
there, buying or renting homes, purchasing
necessities of life and contributing in other
ways to the advancement of the community
Redwood Falls is fully as eligible as q
factory site. It is swiftly growing com
munity with every prospect for bright
future. It's residents are law-abiding, fru-
gal, ambitious. 1t has railroad facilities and
good highways. It's shortage of homes is
rapidly being remedied
The principal need apparently is for 8
committee or commission, awake to the sit
uation, willing to devote thought, time anc
energy to the matter and backed with the
promise of some ready cash if it is needed

One business succeeds. Another next to
it fails. Usually the causes of both success
and failure can be discovered. They both
lie with the individuals. One merchant is

other is lax, careless and discourteous. The
successful merchant is an asset to the COM
