Many ARR Employees
Being Layed Off

Railroad employees are being
discharged right and left. The
drastic cut in personnel hits
Palmer with the discharge of
Earl Ramsey on the first of the
month, and the laying off of Jess
Ward this week. Reasons given
are that in-as-much as there is no
freight coming in, the employees
can be dispensed with.
Anchorage is the town that is
hurt by the suspension order.
The shop mechanics, office force
aud train operators form a very
large percentage of Anchorage
citizens.

orite term among Farmer-Labor
editors and just about everyone
who differs in views in any way
with these people is classed as a
"reactionary."
In a way, however, the Farmer
Labor party itself might be termed
reactionary in it's attempt to get
around the state primary law,
which was adopted about thirty
years ago as an advanced step in
nominating candidates,
The F. l.. party does not let the
voters themselves decide who their
candidates are to be as was the in
tent of the primary law, but the
candidates are nominated in the
old "reactionary" method in state
and district conventions and the
rank and file of the party have no
choice in the matter.
The Farmer-Labor conventions
not only nominate party candidates
for state offices, but go right down
the line and name nominees for
all nonpartisan offices from SUI
preme court justices to candidates
for the legislature and county Of
fices, thus defeating the intent of
one of the most advanced ideas of

given them advantages possessed only by city

EDITORIAL
COMMENT
From Our Exchanges

If the statements of Bernard
Finnegan, Chicago attorney, that
the real solution of the Lindbergh
baby murder case is near and that
Bruno Hauptmann was entirely in
nocent of any connection with the
crime, are true, it's going to be
bad day for a number of promin
ent people. If they are not true
Finnegan would have done better
to have kept his mouth shut; there
has already been enough bitter
ness, dissension and questioning OF
Jersey justice aroused, supposing
that irrefutable evidence of Haupt-
mans innocence cannot be produc-
ed.
If it can it will not help Haupt-
mann. He is dead-will have been
legally murdered in that case. 1t
won't give a widow her husband or
a small boy his father, although 1t
will clear the name they bear. But
it probably will spell the end for
Attorney General Wilentz, of New
Jersey in politics. 1t will discredit
the police and detective methods
Of the New Jersey state police. 1t
may spell ostracism for Justice
Trenchard who sentenced Haupt-
mann and refused him a new trial.
Anthony Hauck, Hunterdon Coun-
ty Attorney, who prosecuted the
case, can just write finis to any
political or public ambitions he
may have. The witnesses whose
testimony built the case against
the German carpenter might bet
ter move elsewhere and change
their names. The name Of John F.
Condor (Jafsie), ransom informed
larry and witness extraordinary who
identified Hauptmann by his voice
will be particularly obnoxious to
the American public.
Bitterest of all, strangely enough
may be the reaction towards the
dead baby's father. He lost popu-
larity by his sudden migration to
England shortly before the sched-
uled date of Hauptmann's execu-
ton. 1t will be recalled that he too
was a powerful witness against
Hauptmann. Proof of the convicted
mans innocence would just about
finish the Colonel up as a popular
idol.
With so many persons certain to
suffer powerful efforts would be
made to bury any proofs Finnegan
may have turned up, and never let
them get to the public. The next
move Is Finnegan's.-Blue Earth

Minnesota a worthwhile service in
arranging a plan whereby proper
ty owners whose taxes became de-
linquent during the past few years
may pay up in installments over a
10-year period. The plan was en-
acted into law during the special
session of our legislature last win
ter and nearly two million dollars
have already been paid in back
taxes, it is said. The King-Desmond

prior to that date and thereby save
the property owners expense and
the city undue labor.
