WHAT SHOULD JOHN D, D0 WITH HIS MONEY The Svenska Folkets Tidning Pub- lished the Following in its Issue of April 6th. One of England’s greatest divines gave this advice little over hundred years ago: ''Make all the money you can, save all you make, except what little you need to support you, and yours, in a simple way, and give away all you save.” This is accord- ing to my opinion, very good advice. I do not believe it is any sin to make money in an honest way. I would not condemn John D. Rockefeller, or Carnegie, or Morgan or any other rich man, because I believe the most of the rich men have sacrificed a good deal and worked harder than any one else, in order to get rich;| and natural resources in their respec- tive line of business, circumstances and keen competition, made it neces- sary for these men to either succeed or fail. If they had failed in their great undertakings, our great coun. try would have failed to develop, and every one of us would have been worse off, and more wicked than we are at present. Let us consider everything from a fair point of view, and let us believe that everybody is good until the con- trary is proven by two or more wit- nesses. Now then comes the question: If we shall give away all we have saved, how shall we give it away? If T could get money enough, well I would start if I had only one million, I would accrue as much desert land as I could manage. I would divide it up in 10-acre pieces, make arrangements for irrigating it, build a little cottage on.each 10 acres, sell it on 20 years’ payment for actual cost, and without interest, and no payments should be required during the first 10 years, only the buyer should live on the land. I wish John D. Rockefeller buyer should pay one tenth of what the little farm cost, and so one tenth, without interest every year until it was paid. I wish John D. Rockefeller would arrange for such benevolence. Both men and God Almighty would bless him forever if he did. Let every one who reads this cut out this little article and ask him kindly to com- mence such benevolence, Address John D. Rockefeller, Cleveland, Ohio. The above article was clipped from the Svenska Folkets Tidning Minneapolis och St. Paul. If ever there was an article published that was better advice than the above, it has not been properly circulated. This should certainly be suggestive to Mr. Rockefeller and might give him an idea of which he has never thought. Let us hope that many a poor soul will profit by this sug- gestion as well as the Hon. John D. Rockerfeller. , M. & 1. Logger Wrecked. A wreck occurred on the M. & I. near Laporte late yesterday, about ' BEMIDJI ICE CO. ANDERSON & BLLOCKER, Props.

NEW YORK VOTERS REPUDIATE TARIFF Republican Stronghold Elects Democratic Gongressman, Rochester, N. Y., April 21.—Manu- facturing Rochester, rock ribbed Re- publican in principle, has repudiated the new Republican tariff law in no uncertain terms. That is the construction party lead- ers in both parties place on the em- phatic defeat of George W. Aldridge by J. S. Havens in the fight for the vacant congressional seat of the late James B. Perkins. Havens’ majority was 5,831; Perkins’ plurality in 1908 was 10,167. Close scrutiny of the figures only emphasizes this opinion and while na- tional Republican leaders are explain- ing that the personal equation settled the election local Republicans insist this distorts the issue. Not only did Havens carry the city, but he carried the small towns—all of them except one. The issue in the country towns was the “high cost of living.” This was blamed on the new tariff law and the farmers apparently ac- cepted it as a “vital issue” and voted accordingly. The Democratic leaders insist, and for the most part their contentions are concurred in by the local Republican leaders, that the wave of insurgency that is sweeping the country is fully as strong in New York as it is in Kansas or Iowa. CALLS IT A GREAT VICTORY Croker Comments on Eelection of Havers to Congress. New York, April 21.—Richard Cro- ker, the retired Tammany leader, sel- dom allows himself to express any opinions on political matters. But the victory ofgJames S. Havens, the Dem- ocratic noftiinee for congressman in Rochester, led the ex-chieftain to transgress® his rule and make a brief statement before leaving America on his return to his Irish estate. “It is a great victory,” said Mr. Croker, “and augurs a brilliant fu- ture for Democracy in New York state—a greater victory, in fact, than many realize, for it will have its ef- fect throughout the nation. It looke as if the Democrats will succeed ir placing a governor at Albeny.” EVEN BREAK IN SOUTH DAKOTA Equal Number of Towns Re- verse on Licen;e. LABOR TICKET DEFEATED Bitter Contest at Lead Between the Homestake Mining Company and Or- nnlzed Labor Results in a Victory for the Citizens’ Ticket—Anti-8aloon People Pleased Over Capturing Plerre and Redfield. Sioux Falls, S. D, April 21.—Late returns show little change in the license, and anti-license situation in the state. In all thirteen towns changed from dry to wet, as follows: Andover, Avon, Armour, Canova, Dol ton, Faulkton, Gettysburg, Miller, Col- man, Nunda, Florence, Columbia and Bisseton, Thirteen towns changed from wet to dry, as follows: Centerville, Sher- man, Viborg, White Lake, Howard, Redfleld, Britton, Mellette, Groton, East Sioux Falls, Pierre, Volga and ‘Waubay. The license element, with the com- ing county option fight in view, say they feel quite encouraged from the fact that in five towns, Sioux Falls, Deadwood, Lead, Hurom amd Yank- ton, license had a majority of more than 2,500. Deadwood and Lead alone show an aggregate increase for license of 650 over the vote of a year ago. The anti-saloon people are particularly pleased over having captured Pierre and Redfield. Anti-Union Victory at Lead. Election interest in the Black Hills centered around Lead, where the struggle between the Homestake Min- ing company and the labor unions was clearly defined and bitter. Lead polled the largest vote in its history, over 2,300. The Citizens’ ticket, headed by Harry Howard for mayor, was elected by a majority of 397 over the Labor Union ticket, which elected one alder- man. Four Slavonians were arrested, charged with illegal voting, but there was no disturbance. The municipal court carried and license carried by 700. In Deadwood Mayor Adams, on the Citizens’ ticket, won by a majority of 301, the People’s ticket electing one al- derman. At Belle Fourche Mayor Evans and the whole Citizens’ ticket was re-elected by three majority. Rapid City, voting under the com- mission plan, elected R. V. Jackson mayor by three majority and as com- missioners Dodge, Patton, Overpeck and McEIrcy. The voters defeated the electric {lght franchise, Spearfish re- elected Mayor Stebbins and the Citi- zens’ ticket by thirty. ROOT MAY SEE ROOSEVELT New York Senator Will Sail for Eu- rope on May 21. ‘Washington, April 21.—Senator Root spent nearly an hour with President Taft at the White House. The sen- ator expects to sail for Europe on May 21. He would not say whether or not he would have an opportunity to see former President Roosevelt on the other side before the latter sailed for New York, where he is due June 17. It is generally believed, however, that Senator Root will see Colonel Roosevelt and that the returning hunter expects an interview with the New York senator. Senator Root goes to The Hague as one of the American | be representatives of the Newfoundland fisheries dispute. ‘When asked for an opinion on the result of the congressional election at Rochester Senator Root declared that, as the result “lacked the .charm.of novelty,” he would have nothing to say. ARRAYED AGAINST THE TRUST | i Willlam A. Brady and Shuberts Form an Alliance. New York, April 21.—The Shuberts and William A. Brady have formed an alliance, according to an announce- ment made here. They have incorporated jointly a company with $1,000,000 capital stock, ‘with Mr. Brady as president, Lee Shu- Amn bert vice president and J. J. Shubert secretary treasurer.

Long “Dry” Spell to Be Broken. Chicago, April 21.—The long “dry” spell in Gary, Ind., will be broken next Monday, owing to the result of the recent election. Already licenses for 160 saloons have been issued and before the saloon doors are thrown open Monday it is predicted the num- ber of licenses will have reached 250 Two Killed in Crossing Accldent.

New York, April 21.—Down on the New York water front it was declared that there was an unprecedented de- mand for ocean going excursion boats for June 18, when Theodore Roose- velt returns from Europe. Shipping men expect a harvest twice as great as that reaped by the various steam- boat owners during the Hudson-Ful- ton celebration, Nearly every big organization—pa-. triotic, political and social—in the city and scores of the other cities have engaged or expect to engage steam- boats for June 18 and there is a good chance that there will not be boats enough to go around at any price. Some of the greeting parties plan to go far to sea and it is expected there will be a race to be the first to meet Colonel Roosevelt’s steam- ship. Most of the ships will be equip- ped with wireless and some of the welcoming organizations are planning to distinguish themselves by the ad- dition to their equipment of unique moise making instruments, such as fog horns and siren whistles. ‘While it is not yet known whether any war vessels will come here to take part in the naval parade a move- ment is already on foot to have the fort at the harbor entrance salute the homecomer as he steams up the bay. The Honest Way. “Money? Pooh!” exclaimed a suc- cessful financler contemptuously. “There are a hundred ways of making money.” “Ah, but only one honest way!” pro- tested his companion. “What's that?” “Um!
