| REDWOOD FALLS NEWSPAPERS
| perhaps shouldn't expect mitch else after
| supporting Hjalnar Petersen in opposition
| to Governor Benson, but when condemnation
| proceedings for road right-of-way are given
| to paper far from the land being con-
demned and having practically no circula-
| ton among the land owners affected, a poll
tical and not legal purpose is served.
| m1s;npApoirs EXPECTS $4,000
visitors from So towns for the jubilee cele-
brating the saving of the M and st. L rail-
| road from ACKNOWLEDGMENT. Most of them
will drive in or take the bus.
LIGHTS OUT AT MIDNIGHT" IS
the rule over at jackson where the city
council and mayor disagreed OH the propos-
al, the council winning out. We suspect the
| regulation will be shortlived. Lights after
| midnight are more important than lights
before in the protection of property. Every
| city has some workers whose hours are url-
usual in that they go off duty late at night
and even the most well behaved party often
breaks up after midnight. The trip home
without lights is dangerous. Not fewer
cities.
WANToN WASTE OF FISH is
against the law in Minnesota as several pro-
ninent Worthington men discovered to
their sorrow last week. Three discarded
| strings of pike were traced to them and
| fines of $25 and costs were assessed to the
offenders. Most sportsmen will agree they
got off easy.
NORTHERN MINNESOTA RESORTS
| are crying bitterly over the failure of the
| big tourist trade expected this summer to
arrive, despite the generous appropriation
| by the state to entice visitors to our lakes.
| Only those northern resorts which have
built UP reputation for excellent accom-
modations at reasonable rates and enjoy
considerable repeat business have escaped
the recession. Every business has a few
but the resort business seems to have at
tracted more than it's share of extortionists.
Ii the state is to substitute the business by
paying for its advertising, it should exer-
| else some regulation as to what constitutes
fair charge for facilities offered.

/ THE DEPOT AT sEARLEs, MINNIE
| sofa, on the NJ and st. L was sold the other
| day and n1oved-by truck. And some peo-
pie wonder what's wrong with the railroads.

WE LAUGH AT THE WOMEN ABOUT
! their clothes but they certainly have us out
smarted on the matter of dressing for sum-
| rner comfort.
SOMETHING WE DON'T UNDER
| stand Why they always cite as models of
democracy certain countries which still sup
port kings with all the trappings.
. D
WE HUMANS ARE FUNNY DEPT
| Boy shooting firecrackers for the fun of
making noise; holding hands over ears dur
ing each explosion.
/ NEARLY Is MILLION PERSONS RE-
! presenting about third of the families in
| the United States will receive federal checks
i during the last half of 1888. Taxpayers
| now know how third of the country lives
| anyhow.
] AN EDITOR CAN RUN COLUMNS
| OF publicity for a public project and the in
dividual who should be interested will never
see it, but put two unfavorable lines in the
paper at the bottom of the last page, and
that fellow will see it and squat his head
off about it.-Paynesville Press.
THE PARTISANS ARE GETTING
ready to slip back into their party harness
es again but the independent voters who are
asking no favors or special privileges of any
administration except clean, honest, efficient
/ government, are sitting back, watching and
will make their minds up sometime between
September Is and the November election

i THE YEARS SYMPHONY CONCERTS
in Cleveland drew $4,000 people; one recent
ball game there drew 1000 more than that
Music hath charms, but baseball hath what
it taketh.-Worthingto Daily Times.

T. WHEN MUSSOLINI SAYS THE
press of Italy is the freest to be found in ell
the world, he probably is thinking of all the
free advertising they have been afraid not
i to give him-Fertile Journal.
