Deer Follows Kids no school

Alexandria.-Mary had lamb that followed her
to school, but pupils of District "a four miles south
west of Alexandria, had deer that followed them
to school one morning last week. The deer, which
young doe, allowed the kids to pet and scratch
her but their efforts to get her to come into the
school house or the wood shed were not success.
She stuck her head in the door and looked around
but then decided that she had business elsewhere,
leaped the fence around the school yard and made
off toward the west. This is the first time deer
has been seen in that neighborhood, according to
Frank Swenson, who farms in that district and
whose daughter Edith teaches in District "a The
incident aroused considerable discussion to why
a deer acted so tame, unless she had been wounded
or crippled at some time and had been taken care
of by a game warden others.

DR.. Cole has never been known
as Democrat. His known party
utilization has always been Repub-
lican. The only purpose in endors-
ing him was that he is one Of the
most prominent Townsendites in
Minnesota and the Wolf Democrats
hope that he can poll the Townsend
vote and hurt Paul Kvale. 1t hap
pens that Paul Kvale Is one Of the
Congressman who had the courage
to vote his conviction that the
Townsend plan is impossible. The
Townsend organization has listed
Kvale as Congressman who must
be beaten.
1t should be clear to the dumb
est person that the Wolf Democrats
thought they were picking the
strongest vote-getter they could
find, even at the risk Of electing
the Republican candidate for Con-
gress-just so they could hurt Paul
Kvale.
If that Is friendship the Farmer
Laborites might well inquire: IF
you love me so, why did you kick
me downstairs?"
1t Is good thing that the Wolf
Democrats showed their hand this
way. There will be no more talk Of
ouI going into the Democratic pri-
mary to help the Wolf ticket, and
there will be no more talk about:

Trusting In Booze
We were told that prohibition
was a bad thing and that repeal
would be followed by glorious con-
sequences, particularly prosperity,
law and order and national SOL
vency.
1t was promised that the saloon
would never return. In the old days
before prohibition, there were IT,
900 saloons, places where liquor
was sold to be consumed on the
pr emises. Today there are 437, 900.
In the older days women stayed
out Of saloons. Now they are in
the way.
Repeal was to end unemploy-
ment. That was another promise.
Even the American Federation Of
Labor made statements to that eff
feet. There are 100000 more un-
employed people in the United
States today than there were when
repeal became effective.
OF course, crime was to be re-
duced. Take the situation in Min
neapolis. In comparing the years
1884 and 1885 with the last years
before repeal, namely 1881 and
1882, 1t is found that drunkenness
has increased 26 per cent, murder
rs percent and larceny Sc per cent.
The restoration Of liquor was to
balance the budget. The federal
government has operated at loss
Of over seven billion dollars in the
past two years. Repeal was also to
reduce the national debt. A blind
man can see what has happened to
that claim.
Prohibition was bad enough. The
organized saloon is much worse.
The people believed the politicians
and the advocates Of repeal. They
got what they usually get when
they put any degree Of confidence
in the booze business.-Grand Rap

Rescuers Work Hard
To Reach Miners
Trapped by Fire

MOBERLY, Mo-, Aug. 10 ON.
S.).-Hope that the four miners
entombed here by a fire which
caused the entrance shaft to col
lapse may still be alive was ex-
pressed today by State Mine Dl-
rector Arnold Griffith as two res
cue parties continued their fran
tic efforts to reach the men.
The rescue parties are working
under difficulties. Those attempt
ing to enter through the main
shaft must clear away the debris
caused by the fire and crib up"
the walls, while the other group
has to combat seepage water.
The latter are working toward
the men through an air shaft be.
yond the main shaft and must
dive through the water in places.
It is believed the men are in
q right wing of the mine.
The victims. Edward Stonner,
26; Demmer Sexton, 81; George
T. Cameron, 81, Negro, and j.
w. Mccain, so, were trapped
when a blaze started yesterday
afternoon near the fan in the
air shaft Of the mine and quickly
spread.
Sections wife, with their g.
monthS-old baby, spent the night
in vigil at the top of the col
lapSed shaft. as did Stonner'S
wife and 6-year-o1d daughter, and
Dameron'S bride of one week.
Mccain, who was working his
first day at the mine, is unmar-
ried.
Local Red Cross agencies and
CCC workers joined in the rescue
work. Coffee and sandwiches
were served the rescue squad.
The latter consists of IL voIun-
teerS led by Griffith. who at 10
a. m. today had entered the main
shaft of the mine at a depth of
IS feet.
At that time, 10 hours had
passed without word from the
buried miners.
Rescuers are hampered by bad
air and occasional black damp.
They are using the only six gas
masks available.
A broadcaSting chain has set
up a microphone at the scene,
hoping to broadcast the first
words of the miners, if they are
brought up alive.

International News Service
PWA's $500, 100000 non-Federal
construction program was prac-
tically dead today.
Unless President Roosevelt
changes the requirement that all
of the As per cent Federal grants
allowable for Public Works Ad-
ministration projects must be paid
as wages on the site, the entire
list of PWA applications, more
tan 5000 in number and totaling
more than 100000 in grants
asked, will have to be revised, re-
ducing the Federal grant provi-
sionS to a maximum of 80 per
cent of the cost.
Where relief labor cannot be
provided, no grants can be given,
under the PWA interpretations Of
the Presidents regulations. II
skilled labor not available from
the relief rolls is required, the
grants will have to be reduced in
proportion.
Administrator Harold L. Ickes
and Assistant Administrator Ho'
ratio B. Hackett said that the av.
erage Federal grants would be not
more than 10 per cent. Ickes said
"MOSt of PWA'S projects are
heavy construction Jobs, re-
curing skilled labor. If the
skilled labor is not available
from the relief rolls, then the
grants will have to be reduced"
Col. Hackett explained:
"OnIy 33 to IS per cent of
the cost of PWA jobs goes to di-
rect labor employed on the site.
If 100 per cent relief labor is re-
quired, then 80 to IS per cent of
the cost will be the maximum
grants permissible. The aver
age grants probably would be
not more than 10 per cent"
