PUBLIC FORUM

Paris, Ill, Apr. 3, 1887.
Mr.. e. L. Rattle,
Sank Centre, MIN.
Dear Sir:
notice in your editorials Of The
Sank Centre Herald Of April 1st is
sue that you say: Ever since the
pavement has been completed 1t
has been impossible to drain that
part Of the road during the spring
thaws and following heavy rains"
Please let me call your attention
to the fact that was the engineer
on that particular project and as
such designed that intersection.
At the time capable engineers
from the Minnesota Highway De
partment claimed that It was the
ton they had seen.
You also have noticed, no doubt,
that the water flows into the inter-
section in question from three dir
ections and, as I recall there were
three or four catchJbasins installed
to take care Of storm-water. One
set of catch-basins outlet to the
West, and the other to the South.
Mr.. George Rice was Street Com
missioner at that time and for sew
eral years following and he and his
staff kept the catch-basins cleaned
Of sediment and operating effic-
iently.
I left Sank Centre in 1927 and
from the time the pavement was
installed up to that date I can re-
call of no serious stoppage of wa
ter at the point you mention.
You must krow that all street
intersections can not possibly oc-
cur on hills consequently some pro-
vision must be made for storm-wa-
ter run-off.
Did 1t ever occur to you that, in
order to eliminate an accumula-
ton Of water at the intersection
the pavement would have to be
raised to an elevation equal to the
highest point several blocks away
from the corner?
I feel sure that all your difficult
ty lies in the fact that the catch
basins have been allowed to clog
up and, possibly, the outlets are in
the same condition.
Hoping that the matter can be
corrected easily I am,
Yours very respectfully,
J. e. Bonner.

member or the party. mat oars ali
communists. Nevertheless, It Is be-
coming notorious that communists
have been attending Farmer-Labor
conventions in the three big cities.
They are few III number but loud
in voice and thoroughly grounded
in parliamentary law. SO they have
been able to get large voice In
the party. though in point Of num-
bers they are only the '3unAtic
fringe" that hangs onto the edge OF
the party and Is no good to 1t.
This Shutdown strike" mess
should serve as a warning to Far
mer-LaIbor people that the party
must take prompt steps to purge
itself Of this useless and dangerous
element. For that reason, we are
inclined to give publicity to this
matter. It is time for the decent
law-abiding Farmer-Laborites of
Minnesota to get their heads out of
the sand and face the truth. We
must cut this cancer out Of our
body, or we will sicken and die of
it.-Alexandria Park Region Echo.
Living Wage" Not Enough
For many years we have been
accustomed to hearing a demand
for "a living wage" for those who
were among the less fortunate in
this world. Mr.. John Lewis Is quite
right in saying that labor no long
err fights for a living wage, but
that it wants a human wage,
cultural wage, wage that affords
something more than three meals
a day and a place to sleep. If a
man or woman is to have but a
mere existence in this world, liv-
ing forever on the narrow ledge
that leans toward the seamy side
of life, life is indeed not greatly
worth while. To really live a man
wants the opportunity to give him
self and his family few of the so
called luxuries of life. He especial
ly desires to give his children a
good education and not shoot them
into industrial slavery before they
are matured. He wants a little
leisure, an hour of play now and
then, the chance to share in the
life Of the community the oppor-
tunity to travel occasionally. He
wants his wife and children to be
well dressed. He wants the best
medical care for his dear ones
when they become i'll. He wants his
family housed in a decent abode
where they can live costly and COM
fortably and BEAUTIFULLY. And most
OF all he wants to meet other men
on the level of equality and not
cringe before them like a slave be-
cause they have the power to take
his job If they feel like it. When

GOOD EARTH-There's a defin-

the good earth. Spring may account
for It, but everywhere housewives
and members Of the husbandry are
going into the gardens armed with
gardening costume, trowels, and
hoes, ready to pounce on any I'M
suspecting worm that happens to
trespass on these hallowed premis-
es. It amounts to that historical
axiom of beating swords into plow-
shares-the ladies are beating their
knitting needles into garden trow-
els. Soon the world will be alive
with flowers for which none knows
the name or cares. But they'll be

Farmer-LabOr Party Must Cut
This Cancer Out
From Our Exchanges

This Cancer Gut
On this page we print a photo
graph Of a group of radical hang
ers-on Of the Peoples Lobby, who
heckled the Senators and who stag
ed the "sit down strike" in the SEN
ate chamber last week. This pic
ture Is part Of The propaganda put
out by the conservatives, who hope
to keep this incident going for
weeks (by taking it into the courts)
and using it to stir up so much an
tagonism against Governor Benson
that the public will overlook the
fact that the Senate Is betraying
the people Of Minnesota. II people
can be kept talking about Governor
Benson, they may overlook the fact
that the Senate Is deliberately
loading the little fellow with more
taxes and letting the big fellow Off
easy.
Why should a Farmer-Labor
newspaper print such a propagan-
da picture?
We are doing it to show the good
FarmerlLabor people Of this part
of Minnesota what sort Of folks
are boring their way into the party
and doing 1t all the harm they can.
It will be noticed in this picture
that practically all Of the group
have raised their c1enched fists.
This Is known the world over as
the sign Of a communist. The pho
tographer who took this picture
asked these radicals to make that
sign, 1t Is true. But Senator Victor
Lawson told the group that the
photographer wanted to use the
picture as political propaganda,
and urged them to keep their
hands down. They did not heed this
advice. They made the communist
sign. Why? Because they were all
communists or damphools. A dam
phool is often more dangerous to a
party than the cleverest opponent.

ton provides that any person who
advocates the overthrow Of the
government by force cannot be q

misaid $50 in her home the place where she lived at
the time of the cyclone of 50 years ago. Last week,
when excavations were begun to remodel the home,
excavators unearthed an old mouse nest in which
chewed bits of old bills were discovered. Mrs. J. b.

rather that Farley so considers him
self. Perhaps Clapper gave them the
idea.
Anyway, one would infer that Far

getting some of his journalistic
friends to start boom for him.
My gosh! Have l been SO obtuse as
not to realize that anybody may be-

Der? No, not that exactly Like every

"Jim,' Farley is a politician par ex-

Yet there is a difference between
a politician and a statesman. They
are as far apart as the poles in GER
tain respects. A president needs to be
a statesman. He needs to be d poll
tician also, but he should not te a

modicum of craftsmanship.
