DYER ANTI-LYNCH BILL SLATED FOR NEXT CONGRESS Senator Shortridge's Efforts to Get Bill Through, Filibustered by Democrats. SPECIAL SESSION OF CONGRESS HELD LIKELY Fight To Have Bill Made Federal Law Renewed—Liberian Loan Shelfed. Washington, D. C. Sept.—The Dyer anti-lynching bill goes over to the next session of Congress, which, it is predicted, will be a special session called by the President about November 15. Final effort to secure its enactment before adjournment failed. Not withstanding adverse criticism by the Crisis of the efforts of Henry Lincoln Johnson the Georgia member of the Republican National Committee, and Perry W. Howard, special assistant to the Attorney General, in trying to have the bill so framed when it was under consideration by the House judiciary Committee that it would be within the constitutional limitations, James Weldon Johnson, field secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, called these men to aid in having the measure taken up before adjournment. As a result of their combined efforts, Senator Shortridge, Republican of California, who has the bill in charge, moved on last Thursday that the Senate proceed to the consideration of the measure. Although there are sixty Republican Senators, when the point of no quorum was made, there were only twenty-seven Senators in all answering the roll call, six of whom were Democrats. Conspicuous among the absentees were, Senators Henry Cabot Lodge, of Massachusetts, Joseph T. Frelinghuysen, of New Jersey, and T. Coleman DuPont, of Delaware, all of whom are pledged to the support of the bill. Just prior to the hour of adjournment on last Friday, Senator Sutherland, Republican, of West Virginia protested against the adjournment of the Senate until action was had on the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill. He stated that he was personally interested "in the outcome of the pending elections, being a candidate for reelection before the people of my State, and regard it as important that I should go to West Virginia for the purpose of carrying on a campaign. I believe however, that it is of more importance to the Nation that this bill should be enacted into law than that I should have the opportunity to present my case to the electorate of West Virginia, or that others of this body similarly situated should do so." Of course, his protest went unheeded. It is understood that immediately upon the reconvening of Congress, the administration Liberian loan bill will be temporarily laid aside and the Dyer anti-lynching bill will have the right of way in the Senate. Dempsey Claims He Is Ready To Meet Battling Siki New York, Oct. 13—"Jack Dempsey is willing to meet Battling Siki, the conqueror of Georges Carpentier, at any time, either here or abroad," last night declared Dan McKetrick, affiliated with Jack Kearns and the Eastern representative of the heavyweight champion. McKetrick stated no offers have as yet been made to him for a Dempsey-Siki match. He added that the defeat of Carpentier automatically throws into the discard the Dempsey-Carpentier match which has been scheduled for London in July of next year. --- Reasons Why St. Paul Citizens Should Support School Bonds (Below is printed the complete report of the bureau of municipal research on the $5,000,000 school bond issue. No briefer, more concise, simpler or more accurate summary of the school situation has so far appeared. Cut it out and save it until election day, November 7.—Editor.) A five-million-dollar program for the improvement of school facilities in St. Paul has been prepared by the department of education. This rogram has been prepared in such a way as to attain certain specific objectives. The objectives of the program are: 1. Elimination of all half-day sessions. 2.

Stolen Diamonds Found On Porter; Larceny Charged Albert Mooney, pullman porter, running between Kansas City, Mo., and Chicago was arrested in St. Paul Monday by Detectives James Mitchell of Central station and held on suspicion. Upon being searched at the station two valuable diamond rings were discovered on Mooney. The rings tallied exactly with the descriptions of two rings which were lost on his car and reported stolen by the Chicago police. He will probably be returned to Chicago to face the charge of grand larceny.

The only remedy for these conditions is a large building program. The needed added facilities have been carefully checked, and are: In the intermediate schools the seventh, eighth and ninth grade pupils will be taken care of and in that manner relief will be given not only to the grade schools but also to the high schools. Such a program necessitates the expenditure of $5,000,000. It has been determined to finance this project through the issuance of $5,000,-000 of 30 year bonds bearing interest at a rate not to exceed 6 per cent. The money is to be divided as follows: New building and additions to old buildings $8,817,000 Remodeling of existing The annual cost for the 30 year period for sinking fund and interest will approximate $300,000 or about $1.20 per capita or $2 per $1,000 of assessed valuation on the valuation of 1922. While the total accommodations planned for will presumably take care of the schools so far as the buildings are concerned during the next five year period all the accommodations asked for are needed by the schools. The department of education realizes this and proposes to erect all of the school buildings during the next two or two and a half-year period, conditions permitting. While it is provided that the interest rate shall not exceed 6 per cent, it is probable that, unless bond market conditions change considerably, the bonds will be issued to bear 41-4 per cent interest. Unless the relief as contemplated is given many school children will be forced to remain in dangerous buildings. Half-day sessions will be increased, portables and basement and Continued on page 2) ST. PAUL-MINNEAPOLIS, MINN., SATURDAY, OCTOBER 14, 1922. SAINT PAUL MARSHALL NAMED BY STATE DEPT.

Defends Self; Indicted For Manslaught'r Defends Self; Indicted For Manslaught'r Colored Strikebreaker Kills One When Southern Mob Threaten Violence. Atlanta, Ga., Oct. 13—An indictment charging involuntary manslaughter was returned last Tuesday afternoon against Marion Richardson a Negro strike-breaker in connection with the death of Floyd A. Smith, white striker, who died last August as the result of wounds which it is alleged he received at the hands of Richardson in a strike disorder on August 5th, in the Georgia railroad yards. Following the encounter, Richardson was taken into custody and charged with having shot Smith. At the preliminary hearing, testimony indicated that a crowd of white men gathered around Richardson and threatened him with violence. It is alleged that Smith started toward Richardson, calling him all sorts of names and as the crowd advanced toward Richardson, he drew a revolver and fired. Smith fell mortally wounded, dying a few days later. Mill City Women Organize Branch of Nat'l Crusaders Mill City Women Organize Branch of Nat'l Crusaders Organizers Appointed to Enroll Women of City in Anti-Lynching Campaign. The women of Minneapolis put their shoulders to the wheel at a meeting held Wednesday night for the purpose of organizing a branch of the Anti-Lynching Crusaders, a national organization founded by the women attending the annual meeting of the N. A. A. C. P. in Newark, N. J., last June. The main object is to mould public sentiment against mob violence and injustices to Negroes, to secure the enactment of favorable legislation and obtain legal defense. Organizers Appointed. The first step taken by the local women was to appoint city organizers to bring in new members to the organization. Mrs. Ida Seller was elected chairman of the city organizers. Mrs. W. R. Morris was selected as organizer for south Minneapolis, Mrs. Ruth Walker for the north side and Mrs. Vivian Crawford-Yancey made organizer of young people. All were instructed to begin their work at once. Mrs. F. A. Tousley of the state Democratic committee was one speaker of the evening. She urged the women to organize themselves if they were to succeed in attaining their objects. Attorney Gleasner Fowler made some very fitting remarks. A mass meeting will be held at Border M. E. church, Sunday under the auspices of the newly organized Anti-Lynching Crusaders. Mrs. W. R. Morris and Attorney Gleasner Fowler will speak. Mrs. W. R. Donovan, state director for Minnesota, has announced that the women of St. Paul will be organized at a meeting set for Oct. 22 at Pilgrim Baptist Church at 8 p. m.

SECOND WOUNDED PATROL MAN WILL RECOVER 4 Men and 2 Women Taken Into Custody Following Shooting —Held As Witness. Hardly three hours after he had emptied his revolver in a shooting fray at 146 State St., William Johns, now confessed murderer was taken in to custody by detectives at 313 1/2 E. 7th St. George Stegner, motorcycle patrolman is dead and Patrolman William Border in the city hospital wounded, both victims of Johns' bullets. Patrolman Border will recover. About 10 p. m. Patrolman Border who had been summoned by neighbors to investigate a brawl being waged at the home of Mrs. Jesse Botts, 146 State St., arrived on the scene and upon entering the house was met by a volley of bullets from Johns' pistol. According to Borden's story, he stumbled and fell through the door with two flesh wounds. Immediately after the shooting, Motorcycle patrolman George Stegner came up and when he attempted to enter the house his fate was the same as his companion. His wounds, however, proved more serious than Borden's. He died four hours later following an operation to remove a bullet from his abdomen. When a call was turned in for the gun squad, all available detectives were rushed to the scene and the neighborhood was thoroughly investigated. Johns was trailed and found in bed at "Steve's" rooming-house at $313\frac{1}{2}$ E. 7th St. Johns was armed with a revolver when detectives captured him, according to the police. Others Arrested. Mrs. Jesse Botts, who is known to police and Mrs. Lily Oliver, white, who was in the house when the shooting occurred drunk from drinking moonshine, are the women held by the police as material witnesses. Four men are also being held. Patrolman Stegner is survived by his wife, a bride of three weeks, his mother and a child by a former marriage. Johns is said to be a quiet yet dangerous man by those who are acquainted with him. Police claim to have a signed confession from Johns admitting the shooting. He will be charged with murder, according to Police Chief Sommers. PASTOR OF ZION BAPTIST CHURCH QUITS Rev. J. A. Myers, pastor of Zion Baptist church, tendered his resignation on Oct. 1, Sunday night. He preached to a large audience, taking as his subject, "Peace." He told of his efforts during his pastorate and reported the progress of the work towards the purchase of property and proposed new building. Rev. Myers stated that he refused to enter a public quarrel with some of the trustees, who viciously opposed his plans, and resorted to unfair methods. He speaks in highest praise of those who have assisted him and resigned rather than have repitition of those meetings before he became pastor. While many regret to lose Rev. Myers, who has made a favorable impression during his stay here, they approve his action. —Ex.

Managing Editor One year, $2.00; Six Months, $1.00; Three Months, $.50 Entered as second-class matter February 20, 1922, at the postoffice at St. Paul, Minn., under the Act of March 3, 1879. The proposed $5,000,000 bond issue for the purpose of bettering school conditions in the city of St. Paul should meet with the approval of every parent in the city. Negroes as a unit should whole-heartedly support the project by voting "Yes" when the question comes up for their approval at next month's election. If the report of the bureau of municipal research on the present conditions of our schools is correct, our inadequate, crowded school system must be remedied and necessary facilities provided for handling our school children properly which means we must handle the situation at once. If the program requires the expenditure of $5,000,000 as outlined by the department of education, then it behooves the parents and voters of the city to take care of their educational institution. There are Colored children attending practically every public school in the city and whatever improvements are made directly benefit them. In the district where the Colored population is more numerous, the proposed program if adopted by the voters, will satisfactorily take care of the situation in these districts. The local Negro Business League, like nearly every other civic, commercial and improvement organization in the city, has approved of the bond issue for better schools. In this matter, we cannot afford to be recorded other than for better schools. The bulwark of the achievements of our race lie in our educational opportunities. For this reason and many other reasons we owe it to ourselves and children to join in any good move for better school facilities. Our opinion and support on this question should be unanimous. Now that the political pot has started to boil, as we have always advised our readers we again remind you to watch the man for office regardless of party affiliations. Men are in demand not parties. CONTEMPORARIES CONTEMPORARIES In the course of the debate upon the House resolution authorizing a loan of $5,000,000 to the Republic of Liberia, Senator Watson, of Georgia, said that he would rather give the money to the Negroes of Georgia or Alabama than to Liberia. The loan would mean $100 for each Negro man, woman and child in Liberia. Senator Heflin, of Alabama, also opposed the resolution. Neither senator however, explained what would be done with the money if it were voted to the Negroes of his state. Liberia is a progressive republic, so far as such a small and poor country can be progressive. It is getting upon its feet, and the loan would make it stronger and better able to recover from the effects of the war. But if the money were given to the Negroes of Georgia or Alabama, it is doubtful if it would do them much good. Neither state has done anything to help the blacks within its borders. Both have made a regular pastime of lynching Negroes, with or without proof of guilt of crime. The Negro in them has no rights that the whites respect nor do the governments of the two states compel the whites to respect the rights of the inferior race. If the $5,000,000 were to be given either state for the purpose of relieving lack of education shown by official figures exist in it and to enlighten the whites upon their duties as American citizens, many of us here in the North would favor it. And the expenditure of the majorpart of such an appropriation upon the education of Watson and Heilf in citizenship would not provoke a single objection from this part of the country. Recently at Senatobia, Mississippi, the entire congregation of the Afro-American church was arrested in order to learn the identity of those who are supposed to have murdered Andrew Johnson, the church treasurer. The body of Johnson was found near his home. Authorities proceeded on the theory that only members of the church were supposed to have knowledge of $300 which was turned over to the treasurer but not deposited the day after his death. If this theory were carried out all white people in Senatobia could be arrested if one of their number should commit a murder, as it would be reasonable to suppose that a whole white community would know the guilty party, but no such thing as this wholesale church arrest of Negroes could happen anywhere esle where a congregation of white perons was concerned. It is this sort of lawlessness of Justice that works disrespect for law and legal process. There is no safety for life and property when the law and legal processes are brought into contempt by those in authority. The same rule holds good in most of the Southern communities when a Negro commits a crime. All the Negroes are placed under suspicion and wholesale arrests are made without any regard for the rights and feelings of citizens thus roughly handled. Abuse of authority, of power, is the sudest and swiftest way to break down law and legal process. Since Siki beat Carpentier the old eternal argument flashes up again. Is the black man more of a brute than the white man and therefore a better fighter?... One Dempsey is the champion fighter of the world, and he is a white man, and this Dempsey, from appearance is a lower type of humanity than either Siki or Harry Wills, another great black fighter. Dempsey has a beetle brow and a forehead like neolithic specimens of man. His eye glare like those of the jungle tiger. His head sits down on his shoulders with very little neck. He has all the earmarks of a primitive man. Siki and Wills both have high foreheads. Will's features are almost aquiline and his profile Grecian. Siki speaks five languages and plays the piano as well as Carpentier. Yet Wills and Siki are said to be lower in the scale of human development than Dempsey and his fellows.

"Mr. Wind, did it ever occur to you to blow your bothersome breath in another, direction?" "Very well," gaily laughed Mr. Wind, "that is the way I blow, but if you do not like my way I will be off and send my brother; he blows in another direction." Before the Weathercock could reply, Mr. Wind bustled away and in a few minutes his brother was there swinging the Cock another way. But this Up Jumped the Wind Brothers. the Cock did not like, either. "Oh, dear; I do wish you tiresome Wind brothers would be off and stay away. You are so impolite, blowing this way and that. Do you think I never wish to be quiet?" "Very well," replied the Wind, just as his brother had done. "If you do not like my way, I will be off, but I warn you it will be a dull life without the Wind brothers. You do not know what you are asking."

Jackson's pastorate the church has improved in many respects. Both membership and contributions have doubled, also many improvements have been made since he assumed the charge. At the quarterly meeting here last Sunday, Rev. H. L. Simmons preached an impressive sermon. The collection for the entire day amounted to $77.00. Rev. Jackson will preach his fare well sermon Sunday evening. Members of his congregation hope that he will be returned again to St. Paul for another conference year.

I am up here where I can see all the world. Now, run along, and don't hurry about returning, for I shall be glad to be rid of your bad manners." So away went the Wind brothers to the top of a mountain and for days they left the fault-finding Weathercock to get along as best it could, for, of course, it did not know that the Wind brothers made it possible for it to see all around the world. So there it stood on the pole quite still, looking only in one direction for days, and then one morning it sighed: "I wish I could see what is going on behind me. I am tired of standing still." "What is that you are saying?" asked a misty little cloud hovering near. "I thought you wanted to be quiet. Shall I tell the Wind brothers to return; that you miss them and are lonely?" The Weathercock did not feel as haughty as it did on the day it dismissed the Wind brothers. It was very meek, indeed. "Yes, Misty Cloud." it said, "tell the Wind brothers I wish to turn around." Little Misty Cloud floated off to the mountain, where the Wind brothers were now asleep in a gulch, and awakened them. "Get up!" it said. "The Weathercock wants you to come back. It is tired of standing still." Up jumped the Wind brothers with a roar; down the valley they ran, and in a few minutes Weathercock was swinging merrily, as the Wind brothers blew it first one way and then another, but never again did it complain of their rude manners or that it wished to be still. Though the Wind brothers did not make any remark about being sent away, they blew their hardest, and if Weathercock's tall feathers had not been made of tin it would not have had one feather left when at last the Wind brothers ran away to their mountain bed to rest. (© by McClure Newspaper Syndicate.) WHY? DO FLOWERS HAVE SMELLS WHILE the song of the birds and the smell of the flowers appeal to two entirely distinct and different senses, they have, in reality, the same objective—the attraction of a mate. The male bird accomplishes this by charming the female with his voice; the flower by attracting bees with its scent. The bee, in going from flower to flower in search of honey, scrapes his legs against the inside of the different blossoms and collects a considerable amount of the pollen—or fertilizing agent—which is necessary for the production of seeds in other plants. This pollen he carries with him, unconsciously, and deposits it upon the flowers which he subsequently visits. If it were not for the perfume of the flowers the bee would not be so much attracted nor would he know that honey is to be had for the taking. And, if it were not for the bee and kindred insects, the flower would have to depend upon the vagaries of the wind for the pollen necessary to its proper growth and the development of seed with which to reproduce itself. One of the most remarkable facts about the distribution of pollen by the bee is that the pollen-powder of one kind of plant will not fertilize the flowers of another, thus relieving the bee of any responsibility of acting as an unconscious Luther Burbank and mixing up the scheme of nature by crossing a rose and a hyacinth or a honeysuckle vine with a magnolia tree. A LINE O' CHEER By John Kendrick Bangs. TRIUMPHANT OCTOBER OCTOBER comes, and ever- where A crispy thrill hangs on the air. The weary spirit, worn by toll In wishing harvests of the soil, Takes on new strength to reap the gain In gleaming sheaves of golden grain. Fair Nature with an artist hand Scatters rich colors o'er the land, And mountainside and tree o'er the With ooths but are enlarged To herald with the cast of cheer The Days Triumphant of the year.

MEN WILL ASLO BE REFRESHMENTS DAY OR NIGHT HARDSON RT EMBALMERS COMPLETE FOR The Divided Road By A. W. PEACH (@ by McClure Newspaper Syndicate.) Her bright head held proudly high, Valerie swept gracefully into the chair opposite her father. Her deep blue, pool-like eyes were bright with inner fire. "Father, can you imagine? Nelson has really made up his mind to practice medicine in that little town of Royton. Think of it." she ended with a tone approaching anger. "That old rag-bag of a doctor of yours is to blame. I simply can't go there!" Mr. Bronson smiled as he laid down his paper, but there was a faint sadness in his smile. "My dear, you and Nelson are unlucky enough to love each other. He is unlucky enough to have in him a desire to be of service where most men don't care to be—and where you don't want to go. I am afraid my old friend, 'Doc' Barnes, wants Nelson to take over his practice." "Yes! But think what a future Nelson would have in this city—" "And think how nice it would be for you—good times without end here among your friends! I know, lass, how it appeals to you; but I don't want to urge you one way or another. I hope you will follow him to his field of service in the small town. You know from Royton he can serve a wide countryside—be an angel of mercy where these young doctors don't seem to want to go nowadays!" "Angel! Valerie repeated with a sniff of her Grecian nose. "It sounds pretty, but it doesn't appeal to me. I have made up my mind; if he doesn't love me enough to stay where I want to stay he'll go out to the cows and crossroads without me!" Valerie heard her father's exclamation as she rushed out at the sound of firm steps on the walk outside. Two minutes later she was looking up from Nelson's arms into his clean-cut, tender face. Swiftly she asked him about his decision. Quietly he answered: "Yes, we are going to Boyton, honey. I have worked hard and my knowledge can be of wide use there. I know what it means—long, hard drives, hard work, but Barnes is too old and he wants me to take over his practice; but we'll have the fun of living where men know each other as they do in a small town." She backed away from him. "You will give up money and fame, for what? Think, Ned, think!" His eyes searched hers with keen purpose. "I see—you don't want to go. I had not thought you might disapprove." He was silent in thought for a moment. "Then, sweetheart, this is where the road divides. I am hungry to use my life for service; money and fame I care nothing about—" "And you care nothing about me!" Even as she spoke she qualled before the deep hurt in his eyes. "You know I do," he said gently. "But my decision is made." Her dark eyes flamed. "And so is mine: If you go, you go without me!" There was a moment of quivering silence between them. She heard as in a dream his serene words: "Then I go—without you. Goodby!" There was the sound of a closing door—the sound many a heart has heard, shutting on dreams and hopes forever. She listened a moment with strained attention, turned her head to the chair back, and wept a bit; then, rousing herself with determination went in to her father with the announcement. He did not look at her. "Don't you think he is foolish! Are you one of those foolish idealists, too?" she asked with some heat. "Little girl, you have lots to learn, but I believe in letting you learn it. This old world owes a lot to your foolish idealists!" was his brief reply. Nelson did not come to see her again. She learned that he had closed his hospital work and had one. Then word came from Doctor Barnes through her father to her. Nelson was taking the burden splendidly from the old physician's shoulders. Nelson it was who faced the long night drives into the hills where some suffering mother or father or child needed him in some lonely farmhouse back on the distant roads. He won quickly the love of the village, so the old doctor said, and he was happy in his work. Valerie listened to her father's reading of the letters, and the little ache in her heart began to increase. Gay times did not still it; and often she turned to his last note: "You are my first love—you will be my last!" Then more and more through her consciousness she heard the immortal words of Ruth: "For whither thou goest I shall go. . . . thy people shall be my people, and thy God, my God." And that evening she came to her great decision. Her father smiled in his understanding way, and he made her decision easier for her. She registered in the Great Northern hospital as a student nurse. The months went by rapidly in the routine work. She learned what suffering was—and healing. A nurse who went to Royton on a case reported that Nelson was engaged to a Royton girl. Valerie took the blow in silence. She was making her atonement. Then came the epidemic sweeping through the mountain valleys and into the cities. Then came word from Nelson for nurses. Two went, and then Valerie asked the superintendent for the next assignment, when she found out the nurse was to go straight to the farm, the doctor coming later. She went—changed in thought and character. At the little country station a worried farmer met her, and swiftly they threaded the hill roads back to his home; and every mile, it seemed to her, the farmer could think of nothing to tell her but how his doctor was fighting single-handed the disease in the section, tireless the night and day were long. Reaching the farmhouse, she took up her duties—a mother and two children bitterly ill in the confusion of the little crude home. As twilight came on, she worked, listening for the sound of Nelson's hurrying team. He came without her knowledge. She was in the kitchen at work over the stove when the door opened. Sh turned. She saw with a quick pain at her heart the grayness near his temples; but he loomed there before her, strong, resourceful, a tireless enemy of death and grief. She trembled as his gray, searching eyes gazed at her. She saw the wonder grow and spread, then break within them. "Valeriel You—" He caught her to him in sufficient understanding; and through the tempest of emotion in her heart sounded softly, if strangely, the words of another who found peace: Home is the sailor, home from the sea, And the hunter home from the hill. Baptist Clergyman Makes Statement Baptist Clergyman Makes Statement Rev. J. W. Harris States His Side of Controversy at Memorial Church That the dissension came about in the Memorial Baptist church when I refused to permit the trustees of that church to use the money collected on the endorsement from St. Paul Association to pay their church debts and remodel their auditorium. This caused many things to arise out of that emergency which were not Christian. The endorsement which seemed to be the object of attack reads as follows: "The Sub-Division of Charities, subscriptions and Donations has carefully considered the application of Memorial Baptist Church for endorsement of a campaign to raise $5000 by subscription to be spent in making alterations and additions to their building to enable them to do social service work. The Sub-Division believes that a need for such work among Colored people exists and is satisfied that those who wish to give money to this project can feel that it will be used for the purpose stated herein. ST. PAUL ASSOCIATION Signed: H. M. Egstad, Public Affairs Commissioner The plan accepted by the church which I submitted was as follows: that $5000 be raised from the church membership, that a loan be secured for $5000 and that $5000 be raised by subscription endorsed by the St. Paul Association. The amount to be raised would total $15,000. The church failed in securing the loan for $5000 and refused to raise any part of their $5000 and the trustees demanded that I use the money that was being solicited through the St. Paul Association for community work to repair the auditorium of the church. When I refused, they resorted to many things that were un-Christian to force me to carry out their program. The church was asked by the Baptist Pastor of the Twin Cities, Aug. 28 not to hold any more meetings at this time by reasons of the confusion and the church has not held any since.

O'Brien, Court House, for which $1.00 per inch will be paid. T. H. Richard D. O'Brien Present County Attorney Richard D. O'Brien, should be reelected County Attorney by an overwhelming majority, for he is in every sense of the word OUR County Attorney. He is truly the county attorney of all of the people, all of the time, regardless of race, color or creed. He has had years of experience and believes in a square deal. He unanimously agrees that difference in prosecution and persecution. And no man can honestly say, that he was persecuted and not prosecuted, since Richard D. O'Brien, has been County Attorney. Why change? You must use up your money. Now that he has become so prevalent and criminals so bold, we need him more than ever before. Then, let us re-elect him. It is not enough to vote for him; We must work for him and see to it, that he is re-elected. It is only in this way that we can protect our homes and our liberty. --- Telephone: Gardeld 1170 R. W.

Prepared by the editor of this paper for the judges mentioned below for which $1.00 per inch will be paid. Re-Elect Our Judges of the District Court JAMES C. FRED M. JOHN B. MICHAEL CATLIN SANBORN Perhaps there is no public office in our state, that the people are more interested in, than the judges of the District Court. Too often our liberty or our property depend upon their judgment. And it is our duty to see to it, that only gentlemen who are fair to all people, irrespective of whether they are rich or poor, black or white are elected to this position. Ramsay County has three of her judges of the District Court seeking re-election. They are gentlemen of the highest type. Judges in every sense of the word. They are real Big Men. If they are bias at all, they are bias in favor of the poor, the weak and the oppressor. Gentlemen learned in the law and who have the courage of their convictions to see that it is enforced. We honor ourselves, when we are fortunate enough to vote and work for the re-election of Hon. James C. Michael, Frederick M. Catlin and John B. Sanborn, present judges of the District Court. Vote and work for these gentlemen and you will have no cause for regret.
