Big 3lll Lee, the 6 foot,Ihree- inch Louisiana right handler who has won 19 games this season, will be called upon to administer the coup de grace. Lee has faced st.. Louis twice this year; won one and lost one. The Cubs will fight 10 win today 50 they can give the pitchers rest in preparation for next weeks series opener.
 Dizzy Dean, who has won moro games this year than any other major league pitcher. will be given the job of keeping alive the fading St. Louis hopes. Dizzy has whipped the Cubs in three of four games this season.
 Improbable
 The Cardinals only chance is to sweep the remaining four games and then beat the Cubs two out of three in post-seson playoff series which will be necessary if the teams tie for first place.
 If Dig does halt Chicago today, it's a thousand to one bet he mere Iy will be postponing Cardinal debacle.
 The Cards were downcast today over their 10 defeat in yesterdays opener but the fighting spirit which carried them to a pennant in the closing days of last season still fiared.
 "We aren't whipped yet" Man ager Frankie Frfsch said.
 "Yeh, I guess I'll be able to stop them today" Dizzy echoed. . But 1t seemed task almost i'm possible of achievement after the manner in which the Cubs func- toned yesterday.
 Even Manager Charlie Grimm. who has been loathe to make q prediction, admitted today that we're as good as in."
 The truth in Grim's words was backed with action yesterday n a game run in world series fash ion. Four umpires--one more than is used during regular season games-were at the posts when Paul Dean hurled tn efirst ball of the contest. Twenty thousand per sons were in the stands.
 Great Work
 When 1t was over, two players stood out in sharp relief-Chicago s Lon Warneke and Phil Cavarretta.
 Warneke won his goth game of the season. Only 2S men faced him. He yielded two hits-a single by King and a double by Jimmy Collins-and famed five. Carvar- retta, 19-year-old first baseman, provided the winning run with a second inning homer that dropped on the pevilion roof.
 In defeat Paul Dean, who pre- viously had halted the Cubs five times out of six, pitched brilliantly. He allowed only seven hits and famed seven opponents. Neither pitchr gay q walk.
 The New York Giants hopes of catching the second place Cardinals were blasted when they lost a double header, 10-4 and To, to Brooklyn in the only other Ma tional league game.
 In the American, the Cleveland Indians defeated Detroit, 3-2. Bos- on halted Philadelphia, 7-2. as Wee Terrell won his 18th game and St. Louis defeated Chicago, 4-3.

SAFE in NUMBERS

The story has been told that po-
litical group was organized in GER
tain Minnesota county with a mem
bership of 20. 1t is said there were
16 Swedes, two Dutchmen, and two
Irishmen. In reporting the organiza-
tion to the local newspaper, the chair
man, who was a Swede, stated that
the Dutch and the Irish were al
lowed to join without protest which
goes to show that we have some broad
minded Swedes in this county,"
That story brings to mind another
one on a Swede. He was chairman
of the rural school district. The an
nual meeting was being held and sew
eral matters had been settled by vote.
Another matter came up, on which
the vote was taken, and the chairman
said, yell, l tank de MAJORITY wins
agin."
The next story will be on the Irish
or the Scotch may have close shave

LONG ON TALK

1t may be possible that the rural
editor thought of some certain indi-
vidual when he wrote the lines be-
low. 1t is just possible that he was
bothered with a little dyspepsia. but
to be sure, he did not view the world
with all its inhabitants as one per-
feet garden of Eden. In that mood,
the editor wrote as follows:
1T is just as true now as it always
was, that the fellow who stands
around the corner telling everybody
how to settle the foreign debts; how
tC limit government expenditures;
how to put everybody back to work
is the fellow who owes everybody in
town, and has a bill at the corner
grocery store. He has never found
the time to vote on election day. He
is a beautiful example of real hon
est to goodness frozen asset-that the
community never misses when he
sneaks out of town.

nor Olson is because of his strong in
grown desire for national leadership.
Long is looking ahead to 1910 with a
view to heading a progressive third
party ticket as the candidate for pres
ident Olson has been given much
consideration along that line and has
been written up in several national
magazines as a very likely national
leader for 1910.
The southern senator shows him
self as being very human in resenting
the rise of Governor Olson in ma
tiOnal leadership.
But they say that Huey is quite a
talker and entertainer and that he is
quite clever, so we may have some
fun in Minnesota in 1886. 1t is quite
certain that Huey can talk as long as
any one can listen. Not long ago he
stuck to the post for Is hours down in
the Senate. That ought to be long
enough for any audience.
However, if Senator Long should
embark upon a program to match
wits and fundamental intelligence
with Governor Olson he had better
come we'll prepared. A lot of jokes
and epithets will not gain many votes
for his candidate.

SEES NO PROSPERITY
Editor Askov American:

Editor Askov Americans:
Farmers are getting richer, U. s.
officials tell us. farm income for 1891
was one billion greater than that of
1888. but they fail to tell us whether
or not billion dollar increase equals
prosperity. They do not remind US
that the gross farm income for 1894
was still five billion dollars less than
in 1929. when half the farmers aver
aged only $500.
To understand this correctly we
must find out how this billion dollar
increase was distributed, and how it
affected farmers of Pine county. First
the increase was due to benefit pay
ments with reports in the papers that
large benefit payment checks even
went to large insurance companies.
| have my eyes on figures where a
California hog raiser received $780,
900 and a Florida corporation that
calls itself a grower of sugar cane col
lected 100000 benefit payments In
this and other dairy districts they
were very small. Would you call it
an extra income to sell off your dairy
cattle at an average of $1,000 per

drouth and shortage of feed we had
to, and now there are numerous farm
ers that have only from three to six
cows, and unable to buy any more.
Can anyone tell me how at % cent
butterfat they can make a decent liv-
ing for their families, to say nothing
about interest and taxes, feed and
seed loans, insurance, repairs and ma
chinery, Irvine, and what not?
o yes, we will have an abundant
crop this fall, but after your feed and
seed loan is paid there will be very
little left for your family, unless you
back up our demands that we pay
those loans bushel for bushel. When
we receive cost of production for other
and all farm produce, you can Only do
so by joining our organization.
The secretary and a delegation went
to Minneapolis Saturday, July 20, to
attend a memorial meeting and pa
rade held by Local STA Truckdrivers'
union, in memory of two brothers who
were shot during the strike last year
in the City of Minneapolis. This
event gave us very deep inspiration
toward regarding organized labor and
uniOnism. Too bad more farmers
could not be there, as we carried a
pennant with the inscription pine
County Farm Holiday Association" in
the over three mile-lOng parade. We
created much publicity for our Holt
day movement as this was read by the
thousands along the sidewalks. Room
will not permit to mention remarks
made. l will repeat one remark that
we heard often like this, $50 the
Farm Holiday COoperates with the
labor uniOns;" and we must in order
to secure social security for workers
and farmers, we must cooperate, and
we have lot to learn from organized
labor.
Those of you that stayed away from
our Grindstone lake picnic surely
missed two very good speeches, made
by the president and the secretary of
Local STA. We have assurance that
when we have picnics and want speak
ers from labor unions we can get
them, so be sure to attend our next
picnic in the near future. Do you
know that a committee from Pine
county went to Chisago county last
week and stopped sheriff sale on
chattels and secured more time for
the borrower to pay. How about our
Pine county? Are we to see one farm
er after another be fOreclosed upon
and evicted? Will you protest with
us or are you satisfied with condi-
tions. Those of you that find faults
with our movement please be man
enough and come to our face and com.

to defend what we are fighting for.

LOOKS LIKE A VICTORY
(The Tyler JournaD

The United States Senate. on Tues
day voted to retain the price fixing
amendment to the Agricultural Ad-
justment Administration. With Il
price fixing feature written into the
law. and granted that it is properly
administered, agriculture has a
chance to get on its feet and remain
there.
For the two years that the AAA
has been in operation. there is a
question whether or not it had much
to do with the better farm prices.
That point. in view of the drouth and
the natural shortage. is one on which
few are agreed.
But. with the power to fix farm
prices at minimum below which
they may not fall. the Department
of Agriculture is placed in posi-
ton to do effective work.
Another of the amendments that are
being considered provides that farm
ers may make government loans on
farm stored grain. and that adjust
ment payments may be made in kind.
This will tend to preserve a normal
granary supply. and will prevent the
Cutting of the market at harvest
time.
The two amendments. properly ad-
ministered. will do much toward re-
moving the food supply of the nation
from the control of the spectators.

MAY KEEP TAILS

Horses have been displaced to a
great extent by locomotives. street
cars. automobiles, trucks, tractors,
etc. but they are still useful and the
most economical in many places.
The latest, however, is that now
even the horses tail will suffer. For
centuries horse hair has been used on
violin bows. A dispatch from London
the other day stated that Bronislaw
Huberman, concert violinist. thinks
that a violin bow strung with fine
steel evokes a better tone. The dis
patch stated further that he used the
steel stringing at a concert in Lon
don and critics were unanimously en-
thusiastic.

1--WE MISS YOU, DADDY"

The following editorial was printed
in the Rockville, Connecticut, Journal,
about a year ago. Thereafter, to the
editors surprise, it was reprinted by
most of the other papers of the state,
and was used by highway safety Of
ficialS, insurance companies, accident
prevention organizations, motorists
publications and by others who are
fighting the great war against the toll
of automobile deaths. Here it is
and any motorist will surely think
twice about taking chances after
reading it:
Tuesday morning there was a fatal
accident on the Minterburn Hill and
when the medical examiner was going
through the pockets of the dead man
"a telegram was found. 1t was not
very long, just the ordinary ten-word
length, but it was a message that
would make any father happy. 1t
read: WE MISS YOU, DADDY.
WHEN ARE YOU COMING HOME?
THAT was all. 1t was message
sent by one of the children of the
man who was killed. He had received
the message and was hOmeward
bound. The clothes were minus money
but in his pocket he carried that mes
sage.
Those who have little children,
and those who were once little chill
dren, can think of the great blow to
the child when the father did return
hOme-DEAD.
Daddy will be missed by those
children in the long years ahead. No
longer will they have his support, his
earnings. and, more important, his
cOmpaniOnship.
IF ever there was a reason for peo-
pie driving more carefully on the
road, it is that they might get in an
accident and deprive their own child
or some other child of their Daddy
More might be written, but just
let US repeat those words: We miss
you, Daddy. When are you coming
home'?"

GUNS AND BATTLE

A Minnesota newspaper writes:
'Of course you are opposed to war.
But do you refuse to keep a gun in
the house because you are opposed to
burglary"
However. if there were no guns IN
the house there would be less chance
of a battle and certainly less chance
of any one being killed on account
of gun being in the hands of a per-
son who is willing to jump and shoot
on the spur Of the moment.

is HUEY COMING?

The latest political gossip Concern
ing Minnesota is to the effect that
Senator Huey Long of Louisiana, will
come here in the campaign of 1886 to
help his friend. Thomas ID. Schall, in
the event that the latter is opposed
by Governor Floyd b. Olson for re-
election to seat in the United States
Senate.
Several things may happen to make
this prospective political jaunt of the
southern shouter unnecessary. Even
if Schall and Olson are headed for a
clash in the general election of 1886.
such may never happen. Tom might
find himself defeated for the Repub-
lican nomination in the June pri-
marieS.
One newspaper report was to the
effect that Governor Olson might take
a political vacation and not be a can
didate for any office in 1886. The re-
port went on to state that the COVER
nor was not in good health and for
that reason might take lay-off. 1t
was pure fabrication and the report
has since been denied. The objective
of the report was. of course. to make
it appear that the governor is not as
strong as formerly.
1t was all hooey. (Not Huey but
hooey).
The Senator from the south has
taken something of liking to the
blind senator from Minnesota because
Tom Schall is the one other member
of the Senate who criticizes the pres
ident in strong terms. using language
office holders.

son for Senator Longs desire TO come

Government Supreme

The Roosevelt New Deal had good
break Last week when the United
States Circuit Court of Appeals in
New Orleans upheld the constitution
ality of the Tennessee Valley Au-
thority.
The IVA, the court decreed, has
the authority to sell power in compe
tition with private utilities.
1t would be too bad if the govern
ment did not have the right to break
up or diminish the power of mon
opOly. That is the only way the gov
eminent, the representative of all the
people and all the interests, can do
the most good.
If the government is to take the
role of little weak boy, and certain
large corporations will play the bully,
then it is just too bad for the citi-
zens. One of the principle reasons
for less unemployment, better uni
versal education, and a good spread
of happiness and contentment in the
country of Sweden is because the
government i'm all cases holds the
upper hand. No corporation there be-
comes the bully. Their slogan seems
to be comfort in the homes for all
classes When any individual or
corporation is on the way to gain
ing the upper hand or a monopoly
on its product and is charging I'M
reasonable prices it is checked either
by cooperative institutions or by the
government itself.
That same procedure with refer
ence to control by the government
should of course prevail in any and
all countries.
Should the United States Supreme
Court reverse the decision of the Cir
cult Court of Appeals in New Orleans
with reference to the IVA then of
course, it would be high time to
amend the constitution. The decis-
ion however. will likely be the same
in the Supreme Court.
When you hear politicians, mostly
the flag waving type, talk of the con-
stitution, you would think that it was
something sacred that had fallen
down from the skies and something
that should never be tempered with by
the hand or brain of man. The sooner
such folks bestir themselves and dust
their brains a little it will be better
for themselves and all others for the
constitution is man-made, and If it
needs amending in order to cope with
problems of today. naturally it should
be amended. Big men wrote the con-
stitution and there have been big men
in all generations since who could
ably amend it if necessary.
