Hawkins Circular
Proved Effsct tive

On the eve of Tuesdays primary
election, handbils booming the candi-
dacy of w. Newton Hawkins, Ecorse
man seeking the Republican nOmina-
ton for congress, were distributed to
WyandOtte voters.
The phraseOlogy of the bill was
somewhat unique.
To begin with, announcement was
made that the paper was distributed by
voters Of the Republican, Democratic
and nOn-pOlitical faith" Just what Is
non7pOlitical faith, when applied to pol
itics?
The main claim for support was con-
tanned in a paragraph relating that
he is from our community.
Never has the down river cOmmuni-
ties received their just share Of nation
al favors" A tenth grade pupil would
probably have used the word nave,
following never" And election TO con-
gress wouldn't ordinarily be dished out
as a favor.
But the gem is contained in the con-
Guiding appeal: Let's go to town and
elect man we knOw-Once." The word
once is undersigned, and might convey
the idea that once would be enough
for the district.
However, nothing succeeds like sue
cess. The fact that Mr.. Hawkins polied
the second largest vote cast in Wyan-
dOtte for the Republican nomination
for congress would seem TO indicate
that his appeal was effective, although
not exactly a literary gem.

Many Lives We're Lost and
Many Pine County Resi-

Wednesday, October IL, was the
goth anniversary of the great forest
fire which swept northern Pine and
Carlton counties, destroying many
lives, homes and several villages in
Guiding Moose Lake and Cloquet The
fire was accompanied by a 6O-mile-
an-hour wind.
Approximately 500 lives were lost
at Moose Lake and few at Cloquet
Much property damage was suffered
with many settlers suffering the loss
of all their worldly possessions. Ker-
rick also was touched by the fire
which extended as far south as Askov
and Cloverton.
Congress appropriated money for
aid to the fire sufferers, but many
never received their just compensa-
ton and even until recently trans
actions with view toward settlement
of many of the claims have been
undertaken.
