It looks as if we will all celebrate Labor day. Especially will the train- nien celebrate the day by not work- ing. Let’s give all the employes of the railroads an eight-hour day while we are at it. Why just a portion of them? Eight hours is enough for any man to work. Ask the Democrats why they blame the European war for the high cost of living and refuse to credit the European war for the gigantic in- crease in our export trade. There is a significance in the pri- mary vote everywhere this year. The Republican totals are very much greater than the Democratic totals. Even so will it be on election day. The New York Evening Sun finds this explanation: At Princeton, Mr. ‘Wilson became accustomed to confer- ring degrees upon D. D.’s. At the ‘White House he continued in prac- tice by conferring office upon De- serving Democrats. Mr. Merchant, are you preparings your campaign for Dress-Up week which will be held September 30 to October 7? This is a nation-widé celebration and we want the Bemidji celebration of the week to rank with any in the country. It is necessary to raise at least one- half of Beltrami county’s quota of nine dollars per mile for the Jeffer- son highway within 30 days of the designation of the route. The bal- ance must be raised within 60 days. The time is nearly up. We must get busy.

Certain it was that games have been played in quicker time this year than in the two preceding ones and it is a cértainty that baseball is enjoying prosperity in the two big leagues it hasn’t' known for two seasons. | The defeat of the Federal league also has removed competition from the two major leagues and this has helped swell attendance. Also many touted stars in the Federal league have taken their places among the American and National league play- ers and this has helped to revive in- terest. Next year will probably see base- ball again established at the height of the prosperity and popularity it enjoyed in 1912. It is quite amusing, however, to note the change in heart of some of our law-makers who have recently had their machines stolen.—Sparks. BASEBALL FRIDAY. Football Fractice Begins.

Better With Feds Gone. BasebauBY H.AM]LT(?Nd o (United Press Staff Correspondent) New York, Sept. 2.—The class of baseball this year as compared to the game put up in 1914 and 1915, has shown a vast improvement, not only in the major leagues, but in the smaller organizations. A prominent manager of the big leagues, discussing this condition, to- day declared it is due to the demise of the Federal league. “The disorganizing effect of the Federal league upon ballplayers of all classes was remarkable,” he de- clared. ‘“A good baseball player, unless he wast most conscientious, would not give his best efforts a year ago. He figured that any time he got dissatisfied with his place on a cer- tain club, or if the manager of the club threatened him, he could go to the Federal league. This was, to a certain extent, true. ““As a result of this condition we had loafing players who dragged their play until the spectators were thoroughly disgusted. They wouldn’t go after a hard chance for they were |S afraid they would make an error and spoil their averages. “This year everything has changed. The old competition has returned and baseball again has ascended the which are Fords. Cass county has 165 cars, of which 82 are Fords. Chad Jewett will smile when he reads this. . Let’s go.

The players again are hustling and fans are getting a run for their money.” Apparently this manager, who | {IIIHIIIINIIIIRINY 2 [LLLUULLLUL LR LR REERREEEE LTV T T T THE AUTOMOBILE THIEF. If an amendment to the present au- tomobile laws of the state of Minne- sota, which provides for a punish- ment to fit the crime in cases of auto- mobile thievery, is passed at the com- ing session of the state legislature, the days of the joy-riding thief are numbered. The bill which is being prepared by Hon. H. D. Dickinson, of the Hennepin district court, pro- vides for a straight penitentiary sen- tence and especially provides that the fact that the thief intended to re- turn the machine shall be no defense. Our present law has left the matter of intent open to discussion, with the advantage distinctly with the of- ender. Isn’t it about time we were get- ting somewhere with this matter of automobile stealing? It is bad enough to have to put up with the inconven- ience of waiting for two or three days to find your car which has been taken by some young culprit to joy-ride in and when it is returned, if ever, ten chances to one it will be found to be all out of line, fenders smashed, etc. But when one realizes that there is an organized gang in the larger cities especially, which makes a business of stealing cars, taking them apart, reassembling and then selling them out of town, we think it is high time that some move should be made to put a stop to it. Heretofore the argument has been advanced by legislators that most of the offenders were young boys and very often of good parentage and a severe penalty would work a hard- ship on the parepts. This may have been so at one time, but experience has proven that the offenders, wheth- U because everything thiey rieed in school is sold here.
