OFFIOIAL COUNTY AND m,mnfl@l CONSIDERABLE EXPLAINING:SOON DUE. There’s going to be considerable explaining on the part of the officers of the German army on-the front in France soon, and there’s going to be considerable ‘explaining of the powers that be to the people of Germany one of these gladsome days. The explanations will be along the lines as to just What 3 the American army is,- whether itis a handful of untrame@, conscripted, unwilling fighters dragged into battle, or whether they are red blooded Americans who got sore long ago because they couldn’t get right at the Huns and not go into training, or wait any longer than get “over there.” Unwilling to fight? Trouble is, they get tired out chasing the Huns who have de- veloped remarkable sprinting qualities the past few q.ays. Yes, the official explainers will soon be in action. And ‘the answer? Pl g 0.

So a “labor party” has been organized in Minnesota to go after Burnquist, Wheaton, et al., on the grounds they are - inimical to labor. ' The whole thing has a sort of Townley tinge and is another frenzied movement to complicate the loyalty of the:state by a bunch of disgruntled individuals who desire to get their feet in the bucket and put Minnesota on thesblacklist. But there are thousands of good union men who will net fall for the scheme to again get them into a Knights of Labor predicament. It doesn’t have the right ring. THE PRICE OF AN AVENGING HAND.
