THE STRIKE AVERTED The railroad strike has been averted. The country waited with abated breath for the result which came. Many were op- timistic that such a result would come. All are devoutly thank- ful that it has come. e For the final outcome of the deliberations, credit is divid- ed between the Railroad Labor Board, the administration, which strongly backed up the labor board, and’ the railroad labor unions who, with a spirit of compromise, exhibited a flexibility which cannot but win for them the respect of the American from wives and children of railroad employees asking me to do ~everything Ppassible_tci prevent a strike., When I think of the suffering 4 strike would‘have caused these people and the dis- aster it might hsvé brought to this country, I say again that I} thank God we taok the action we did tonight.”: LR In this expression;:the people of the country will heartily{ concur. Whether'the reducing of freight and passenger rates will follow immediately or not is questionable. We are devoutly glad to escape the strike at this time." But if the railroads will keep faith with their moral obligation, if not an actual promise, they will fin da way very early to make a reduction in rates which will help more than anything else to quicken trade and place the'country on a smoother road to normal prosperity. The employees have shown an indication to do what is in} their power to bring the country back to normalcy. The next move is up to the railroads. = O L L OVERHEARD BY EXCHANGE EDITOR Gy (Thief River Falls Times) Friday afternoon sometime—the exact hodr cannot be stated—a lasge delegation of boosters from Bemidji will invade the city.far the purpose of talking several matters over with ‘our people.

The Indians would |ic lose nothing by such a move. By tagaties all their jpights: would be safe-] guarded and whatever was paid them for the land would be clear gain as they are now making no use of it whatevdr. Thief River Falls can also back B{emidji most enthusiastically in its effort to secure a railroad to tap the Grygla and Red Lake districts. Such line will eventually be built, but just at the present time there is not much| satisfaction to be gained from urging,railway construction. However, al vigorous demand will help matters along when the time comes for tukingg such things up in earnest again. | We also agree with Bemidji as to the necessity for drainage. This problem is being well taken care of by the Red Lake Conservancy commis- sion, and anything in the way of further effort in- this direction just now| might only serye to confuse, the issue and retard operations. We shall be| glad:té hear what the Beltrami county men have to suggest, however, and if their Plan 1ooks better:than anything upon which we are at present working from tljis end, shallmo’doubt be willing to adopt it. 4 At any rate, Bemidji will be,ma‘lg,!welcome. The managers of the trip|} should have so arranged matters that a longer period than one hour could] be spent inythe gity; but a whole lo'."gi things can be said and done in an hour—particularly when peoplc know what they want and what they arej talking about. § ’l’l’\é’liquur question is still an issae.in American politics and the sooner the dry: forces récognize it the better it will be for civilization. The Min- nesota Sapity League, a powerful combination of the liquor interests, has already commenced its work and will do everything it can to bring back the saloons to America. They will do this by every method known to cunning and unprincipled politicians. They are already endeavoring to foist their propaganda uptn the press of the state, but they are finding country pub- lishers, with very few exceptions; unwilling to contribute space for the re- turn to America of so nefarious a business. It is -true, moonshine is being manufactured to some extent. It is equally true that murders are being committed, but who would take away the law against murder. The business iinterests of this country have had experience with and without saloons, and thousands of men who voted for the liquor traffic have been convinced that they were wrong, that conditions today with saloons would be intolerable. | _Just think of it—millions of men are out of employment.-and in case the railway strike| takes. placey millions: more, will be without labor, in that factories by the hundreds will close gown the moment they are withofit ship= ping ndvn‘rgtx ¢ With such an arimy of unémployed. evi rj} dollar wi 1 be needed- for es of life;, and any mnn"’\vfié”\‘\‘r‘({?fld restorll bobze would at the same tintewelcome revolution.—Walker Pilot.
