A SUCCESSFUL PAPER

Twenty-Five years ago, to be exact
on July 81, 1910-Herman Roe be-
came the owner and publisher OF the
Northfield News. In commemOration
of the 25th anniversary of the present
publisher and editors services in that
field, the Mortified News published
fine 16 page supplement on book pa
per to go with it's regular edition last
week.
Shortly after having finished col
lege, as young man, Herman Roe
entered upon his newspaper career at
Mortified, green and untried in the
fourth estate. With natural bright
ness and alertness and desire to do
things, he made good as few have
newspaper is always newsy and neatly
gotten up. geographically it is an
outstanding publication, having re-
peatedly won state and national prizes
in general makeup. appearance, and
subject matter. Not only has the pub
Usher of the Northfield News filled
many places of leadership in state and
national press associations put ne mas
filled many offices of trust in his
home community.
Editorially of course, it is not to
be expected that all other newspapers
should agree with Herman Roe, and
his Northfield News, but whatever
editorials have appeared in the News
have been thought provoking. They
have also been couched in language
that does not leave bad taste, but
in language that shows culture and
from which person can learn wheth-
er or not he agrees with the writer.
Congratulations are extended TO Mr..
Roe and his Northfield News as we'll
as the able staff on this silver jubilee.
May the paper continue to serve as
we'll in the future as in the past.

BACK Up LEGISLATURE

The voters of North Dakota upheld
by n close referendum vote the action
of their Legislature last winter in en-
acting > per cent retail sales tax
law. The situation in North Dakota
is somewhat different from Minnesota
in that they have not much outside
of real estate and personal property
TO tax. Here in Minnesota we have
the mines to tax and other forms Of
special taxation that would be Gene
fitted by a retail sales tax moreso than
the average general property owner.

TOUGH FELLOWS

The irish are elated and proud or
their new worlds heavyweight pug
ilistic champion, Jim Braddock, and
the negroes are celebrating because
they feel certain as we'll as do so
will be the next heavyweight champ
ion.
Editor J. P. Landy of the Olivia
Times, who has never been accused
of being a Spaniard or Scandinavian,
writes:
THE Irish have cause to feel chesty
since that man BraddOck won the
worlds championship in the contest
with Baer. Braddock didn't have a
dollar in the world, but had to look to
federal relief for the support of his
family. He matched his skill and
courage against the reputation of
champion, and he carried the fight
against Baer to a successful conclu-
sion. During that great contest Brad
dock was fighting for the support of
his loved ones and for the mainten-
ance of his home, and undoubtedly
this feeling did much toward urging
him on to victory"
No doubt Braddock was fighting for
the support of his loved ones, and for
the maintenance of his home, and
having risen to the top rung of the
fistic ladder he will be we'll paid for
his services. The same can be said
of the colored boy, Louis.
Pnf or hot
have to battle in that manner to sup
port loved ones and maintain homes.
The reason of course, for their being
well paid is the fact that fights are
often CORY, very eXasperating to the
contestants, some danger connected
Herewith, and very exciting to the
fans. Big prices are paid by well-to-
do men to see two contestants chop
away at one another and producing
nothing.
The game would not be so bad if
it were not so ruinOus to the health.
Those who attain pugilistic fame are
not so much in danger. In the first
place they are the tougher and
stronger, and in the second place
they do not perform so often. If too
commonplace the gate receipts would
not be so high. The game has been
thoroughly commercialized. The poor
second and third raters are the ones
who take the terrible beatings and
who have to fight more frequently in
order to make living. After a few
years in the game they usually leave
it with broken nose, cauliflower
ears, and cuts and bruises here and
there. The hearing of many is badly
affected. The nervous system is more
or less shattered and many of the old
timers have become punch drunk. =
To be sure leaders in the various
weight divisions need to be strong
and they must have what is called
a fighting heart. They are Obliged
to train strenuously to be quick and
alert, so naturally there is something
for the Irish and the negroes to be
proud of at this time. Certainly the
negroes do not get too many breaks
and they should not be envied for
what glory they derive from the fact
that Joe Louis is in their camp.
But the big point is that some in
dividuals with more Drawn than brain
should be Obliged to endanger their
health and lives for the entertain
ment and edification of others in
order that they may provide a liv-
ing for their loved ones. That is the
thing that does not sound so good.
