OTTER TAIL COUNTY Nigigwanowe, meaning the tail of an otter, was the Chippewa name for the lake in this county through which flow the head waters of the Red River of the North. The name was applied be- cause of a peculiar shaped sand bar, long, narrow and curving, located near the eastern end of the lake, which was thought to resem- ble the tail of an otter. The Indians applied the same name to the river itself, as far as its junction with the Bois des Sioux. White men used the name in translation for the lake and at first for the river also, and'in 1858 it was given to the county or- ganized in the region.

In the formation of our views on nation, state and municipal affairs many of us are unconsciously led in- to the error of believing that there is but one side to the question before us—our side. ‘When we become imbued with this obscession we likewise become intol- erant of opposition and refuse to recognize the possibility of any views except our own. ‘We might cite a few instances. ‘We favor a certain man for presi- dent in the coming national election. ‘To our mind he is the only man pos- sessing the necessary qualifications for this exalted position. All others are mediocre and not worth consid- eration. | And yet 18 a matter of fact there is not a:man in the race for the presidency today but what has his good and valuable qualities as well as his weak cones, for the brains of this nation are not centered in any one man. We have our personal choice and” we' sincerely believe that the man' of our choice is the best fitted for ‘the office, but we should readily concede to our neighbor his inalien- able right to differ from us-in this belief. We:favor a'certain system in muni- cipal ‘government and our neighbor may entertain: views radically di- vergent -from our own. But this does not necessarily imply that we are exactly right in our conception and that our neighbor is entirely wrong, for our neighbor, though dif- fering from us in our views, yet pos- sesses intelligence and is quite capa- ble of applying it in relation to any subject before the people. In fact, there are two sides to every question. The preponderance of ar- gument may be in favor of one side, yet the advocates of the other side but speak in light of their training and of their sincere conception of what is for the public weal. They are honest in their convie- tions, as we are honest in ours, and wisdom bespeaks the utmost toler- ance on the part of all factions and peoples for those who ‘oppose them in their: policies ‘and beliefs. It-is by the careful exercise of this ‘wisdom ‘that a‘nation becomes great and strong and dominating in the world of affairs, while to pursue a Teverse policy is to ‘invite bickering, exasperation and ultimate disinte- gration. In our’ conduct of affairs let us think as we choose, but bow cheer- fully to the will of the majority and work in harmony for the common good of all of the people.
