section Of Minnesota. They came
here on their own initiative, faced
conditions as they were and put up
with many hardships. They lived
in log houses and sod shanties,
ground their flour in a coffee mill
and faced the future with no
thought or expection of govern
mental or any other aid. They
were here to carve out homes.
They built their own roads, school
houses and churches. They were
quite a different breed from those
who have just gone to Alaska and
are being designated as pioneers.
In the sense of those who settled
our woods and prairies, the Alaska
settlers do not know what pioneer
ing means. They are wards of the
government. They are not build
ing their homes; lumber jacks are
being sent out from the state Of
Washington to do such work for
them. Tractors in the hands Of
experts are doing their blowing. A
doctor and dentist, paid by the
government, administering to their
needs. A play director looks after
their children. Their school house,
churches and creamery are all con-
structed by the government. They
are not pioneers but adventures
being trained to expect everything
and do nothing. Failures in life

given a chance that would have
been considered gold mine by the

Bank Bandits No Longer Find profession
EaSy!

There was time when it was almost safe to
commit bank robbery in the State of Minnesota
and during that time this nefarious profession flour
ished and became lucrative Activities of the State
Criminal Apprehension Bureau, we'll excellent
work done in the capture Of gangsters by Federal
men, have been responsible for the depression in
this element of crime This year there has been only
one bank robbery in the state and the identity of
the bandits Is known. Ineir apprehension is almost
certainty. Demands Of law abiding citizens for
honest and efficient enforcement agencies are be-
ginning to bear fruit with the result that crime is
no longer an easy way to acquire fortune.

Huey Long and Tom Schall put on a show for

carried. Friday the House voted it's approval The

It's rather blue for the Blue Eagle which was
pushed off its perch by the recent decision of the
Supreme Court. The bird, which some termed the
blue Buzzard' ended it's Monday and with it
went the compulsory MIRA. The bird wasn't quite as
bad as it was panted-but the clipping of it's wings
was necessary to show its fancers that there are

Delay Was Healthful

One Of the commonest yet err
roneous remarks about the recent
MIRA decision now being made is
that the MIRA should not have
been permitted to go along so far
If it were unconstitutional and
that there should be some way
whereby the Supreme Court can
pass on the constitutionality Of an
act as soon as it Is passed, says
the Republican Bulletin.
The latter suggestion Is Of
course impracticable because no
body under the sun knows, when
a law is passed, just how it will
be executed. It is also true 1t was
much better that the MIRA be per-
mitted to go on and try itself out
before the Supreme Court passed
on it, even had the Court been able
to pass on 1t when 1t was enacted.
When the MIRA ACT passed, the
bank crisis was fresh in the men,
DRY Of the nation. The Brain
Trusters were regarded as a coter-
lie of leaders who were to conduct
us out of the wilderness into the
promised land. A lot of people were
frightened. Even Congress wasn't
feeling so good and appeared will
ing to go along as sort Of rubber
stamp for the President.
Comparatively few long-visioned
calm-minded men then realized the
impracticability or unconstitution-
atty Of the program. They could
not have made their voices heard
above the New Deal tempest and
in any event they would have been
branded as chiselers II not as
