William E. Lee, Republican can- didate for governor, can spend $737. 49 more on his personal campaign between now and election. The Jaw’s limit is $7,000 and the Long Prairie banker has spent $6,262.51, according to a statement filed with Julius A. Schmahl, secretary of state. It showed the amount Mr. Lee has expended on his campaign both before and after the primaries. Names Lend Strength to It. In its most recent appeal to the voters of the state to save Minne- sota’s forests by voting for the Ninth amendment on election day, the State Forestry association has the earnest backing of Governor Eber- hart, President George E. Vincent of the University of Minnesota, Dean A. F. Woods of the College of Agricul- ture, and William T. Cox, state for- ester. The names of these men on the appeal cannot fail to stimulate the public interest in the amendment and increase the confidence of the people in the benevolent nature of the amending act to which it is pro- posed they shall give their sanction “on November 3, says the St. Paul Dispatch. No better guarantee of | the soundness of the projeet cumain-' ed in the forestry amendment could be had than that of such men as the| governor, the president of the state the dean of the Agricul- tural coll and the state forester should subscribe to its tenets, KKK KX KKK KKK * TEDITORIAL EXPLOSIONS * kt«*ii*«««««ai«ax If “made in the United States” j not as good a label as in Ger many” or some other fo coun try, now is the time to b to add character and tone to the firsl—i 3 named label.—Little Falls Tran- script, —— Joseph Leslie Bush emerges from the world’s series with a check for $2,031.68, a bride and a record of having stopped the Braves for more than eleven innings.

SAID TO BE PLANNED " London, Oct. 16.—“Germans arriv- ing here,” saysthe Copenhagen corre- spondent of theTimse, “state that ow- ing to the failure of the Russians to make progress against the Germans the Germans have decided to imme- diately transfer considerable LIasses of troops from the eastern to the western fronts for ‘an advance on Paris. *This transfer probably has hegun as ordinary train traffic is delayed forty-eight hours.” e From the same source the corre-| spondent says he learns that there is a large amount of sickness among the German troops. “The plans for the occupation of Paris drawn up by the Germans be- fore the battle of the Marne,” contin- ues the correspondent, “contemplated a demand for an indemnity of a billion dollars and unless the entire sum was paid within a fortnight property of equal value was to have been taken to' Berlin, including art works and Ii- braries, and retained there Tuntil full satisfaction of the indemnity ; was made.” ¢ 50,000 Germans in Ghent.
