SENATOR CUTTING
Duluth Herald)

The sudden death, in an airplane
accident, of Senator Bronson M. Cut
ting of New Mexico, deprives the pro-
gressive group in the senate of an
outstanding member. Senator Cut
tings personal background was very
similar to that of the President, whom
Senator Cutting supported in 1892 al
though he was listed as Republican.
Last fall, when President Roosevelt
did not see fit to return his support,
Senator Cutting succeeded in defeat
ing the nominee indorsed by the Pres
ident, striking, though close victory.
Although he had been in the senate
eight years, Senator Cutting was still
a young man, comparatively. He rep
resented a state of small population
but his Independent views had won
for him the respect of persons in
other parts of the country, including
many who did not agree with him on
important issues.
Askov American. [volume] (Askov, Pine County, Minn.) 1914-current, 1935-05-09

The actual facts, which trickled
through despite the efforts of the
committee to conceal them, are that
the administration of relief in this
state had the approval of the federal
government The investigation, fur
thermore, showed only trifling cases
of inefficiency in the handling of re-
lief. which was to be expected in the
case of an agency having the vast
task of caring for half million dis
tressed people.
The whole investigation was a
"dud." And it cost the taxpayers of
the state $1,000 in cash in addition
to all the time of legislators that
might have been spent to better pur-
poses. That the conservative major
ity in the Legislature permitted the
wasting of time on this futile in
QUESTION and then developed the worst
legislative jam in the states history
at the end of the session will not soon
be forgotten by the voters. If con-
suited. the voters are net likely to
Countenance any more of these eX-
pensive fishing expeditions" in the
near future.

HERALD EDITOR DIES

1t was but two years ago that Rus
sell C.. Henry was elevated to tie 20
sitiOn of editor of the Duluth Herald
following the death of Stillman Bling
ham who had served in that capacity
for many years.
Tuesday afternoon the career and
earthly cares of Mr.. Henry were
ended in death at the age of so.
He had been a newSpaperman prac-
tically all his life. starting on home
town paper at Valley City, n. D..
From there he went on to Fargo, then
to Minneapolis on the Tribune. The
next move was to Duluth where he
worked on the News-Tribune for Il
time and i'm 1913 took up duties on
the Herald. He worked his way up
the ladder as country newspaper
writer, copy rewritten, police reporter,
music critic, associate editor and
finally editor of the Herald for the
last two years.
Mr. Henry rarely missed the annual
meetings of the Minnesota Editorial
Association where he was welcomed
by newspaper men and women from
all corners of the state as well as
from neighbOring states. He was a
man of experience, most pleasant
gentleman to meet, slow to condemn,
and man with a sympathetic under
standing. In his company person
felt that he was with a friend. The
newspaper fraternity mOurns his loss.

KERRICK BUSINESS PLACE
IMPROVES ITS INTERIOR

Lunds beer tavern opened last week
at Kerrick in the former pool hail
and confectionery store when the par
titiOn was removed and the place
made into one room, 40 feet long and
80 feet wide. New fixtures have been
added and the pool tables have been
eliminated. An oak bar IA feet long
and new sanitary equipment has been
installed to make the place one of
the best in small towns in this Sec
tiOn.
On the south side of the room,
along the wall and leading away from
the bar are three fir booths which
were installed by Reider Edison, 10
cal carpenter. Adjacent to the booths
is an 1Sx15 dancing space with music
at the present furnished by radio,
but which will be furnished later by
an automatic OrthOphOnic VictrOla.
Additional ornamental designing
will be done later by Mrs. Lund, who
expects to use a delightful cCmbina-
ton of old rose and green. The pro-
prietors, Mr.. and Mrs. Lund, extend
a cordial invitation to the public to
call and inspect their place.

HELEN JACOBSON

Helen Caroline Jacobson of Hinck-
ley, passed away on April 80 after an
illness of three months. She was born
at Bancroft, Nebr:, Nov. 26, 1884, and
came to Minnesota in 1908. She was
a member of the St. John Lutheran
church at Krosche1.
The deceased was united in mar
riage to Peter Jacobson at Kroschel
in April, 1910, and he preceded her
in death in 1888. She is survived by
two children, Peter and Norman
The funeral was held at 2 o'clock
in the afternoon Of May 3, from the
Kroschel church and burial was made

erski and Rudolph Dobberstein were

LOVE BIRDS ARE
NOW PROHIBITED

In accordance with the authority
vested in it by law in regards to the
establishment of a system of quaran-
tine against the introduction into the
state of any plague or other COM
municable disease by common car
riers doing business across its borders,
the State Board of Health adopted at
it's April Both session the following
resolution:
Resolved, by the Minnesota State
Board of Health that shipment into
Minnesota of birds belonging to that
branch of the psittacine family known
as parakeets or love birds be pro-
hibited to prevent further introduce
tion of psittacOsis infection.
Health officers are advised to watch
for any shipment coming into their
jurisdiction and if any are found to
notify the State Board of Health i'm
mediately.

be increased according to the addi-
tional amount they would pay. No
more ring around-the-rcsy taxation
could be evolved.
There were countless other worthy
objections. For example, Governor
Olson explained that the independent
merchant would suffer a terrific dis
advantage to mail order houses. The
latter firms. subject to interstate COM
merce regulations, would not pay a
sales tax. Already these companies
are offering an unfair competition to
home town merchants. Think of the
results to be expected under a sales
tax!
Another admirable stand was the
governors objection to the theatre
and amusement tax. To quote:
Those who believe in low
standard of living for the masses
contend that amusements come
under the head of luxuries. l con-
tend that they come under the
head of necessities. Remove
amusements from the poor, and
their morale is destroyed, and
their nervous systems impaired.
In this day of intense strain, re-
Taxation. in the form of amuse-
ments, is almost as necessary as
food
Here, we believe, is the pinnacle
to which a public official may go in
his concern for those he seeks to
govern.
1t is only to the shame of the leg
islature that this body, realizing the
governors we'll founded objection and
knowing a veto was imminent, did not
seek to adopt some taxation means
which would place the responsibility
upon those best able to pay. The
omnibus bill fairly reeks of favOrit-
ism to big business, corporations and
utility firms. 1t can be more than
family limited. therefore, that the re-
dictionary law makers have other in
terests than those of their humble
constituents.

WANTS LYNCHING
1.-THE st. Paul Daily News)


Southern senators have now talked
to death the Wagner-Costigan lynch
ing bill.
Their filibuster has been successful
in pOstponing action on this badly
needed legal reform because of the
greater demand for action on other
legislation sought by the administra-
tiOn.
Their action is further evidence of
the backward state of sO-called south
ern culture. There has never been
any good reason why the bill should
rot be passed. Statistics themselves
diSprove the favorite contention which
shorn of its poetic language bOilS
down to the argument that lynching
is necessary to protect white southern
womanhood Most of the lynchings
which have taken place have not beer
for rape and in a large number oil
cases innocent persons have paid the
brutal penalty.
Yet these southern senators were
