J. Hill strom of Maple Plain. The body of Albert Hanson, the dead bandit believed to have lived at Stan ton, Minn., was taken to the Hennepin county morgue late yesterday. Rich ard Bielena. companion of Hanson, who says his home is in Morrison, 111., was brought to the Hennepin county jail. A charge of burglary was placed againBt him. Marshal in Serious Condition The men had been captured at Delano after they were said to have robbed Hillstrom's store at Maple Plain. They were being taken to Maple Plain for safe keeping in an automobile when the attack on the marshal and his de puty occurred Marshal Merriam was beaten on the head with the butt of a .45 caliber army revolver. Physicians attending him at his home in Delano last night feared his skull may be frac tured. Delano is 30 miles west of Min neapolis. The two bandits, bound, had been placed in the tonneau of the automobile. Merriam and Hillstrom rode in front. On the way to Maple Plain the men broke their bonds and Hanson suddenly ordered Merriam, the driver, to stop. Bandits Attack Captors Hillstrom and Merriam turned and found themselves facing a revolver. The gun was pointed at Merriam's back but Hillstrom grabbed for the barrel. His index finger slipped between the ham mer and the firing pin as Hanson pulled the trigger and this move is believed to have saved Merriam from being mur dered. Hanson was killed by Merriam while the marshal was still dazed from the blows on his head. The burglar escap ed from the car by kicking out the cur tains in the rear of the automobile. He was coming around the side of the car to get a shot at Merriam when the mar shal fired three times in rapid succes sion, th« bullets taking effect in Han son's mouth. Said to Have Confessed Bobberies According to a confession Bielena is said by Deputy Sheriffs Charles Budd and Joseph Shutta to have made, the men robbed a Lyman Lumber company store at Long Lake Wednesday night of $25 worth of pocket knives. The store is managed by Reed Mauer. At midnight Thursday, the deputies sav Bielena told them, he and Hanson broke into Hillstrom's store at Maple Plain and stole $100 worth of shoes, candy, cigarets and socks. They wrap ped the loot in packages and ran to the railroad yards, where they caught a freight for Delano. Entrance to both places had been gained by breaking windows. Hillstrom says he discovered the men just as they were leaving his store. He saw them board the freight train and telephoned to Marshal Merriam. Revolver Overlooked in Search When the train reached Delano, Mer riam was waiting for the men and plac ed them under arrest. Hillstrom was then notified to come to Delano and id entify his property, which he did. Mer riam then decided to take the prisoners to Maple Plain and lodge them in the jail there. Merriam searched the men but over looked a revolver in Hanson's pocket. The prisoners were placed in the rear seat of the marshal's automobile while the marshal drove and Hillstrom sat with him. Half a mile from Maple Plain while they were making good time along a smooth stretch of road Hanson ordered the marshal to stop the car. Merriam and Hillstrom turned around to look into the muzzle of the gun. Mer riam dropped the steering wheel and without shutting oft" the power grappled with Hanson. Marshal Shoots to Save Idfe Hillstrom said Bielena took no part in the struggle. Hanson pressed the gun against the marshal's back, ac cording to Hillstrom and pulled the trigger but Hillstrom's hand was over the hammer. Hanson then wrenched tne gun free and beat Merriam over the head. The automobile in- the meantime had turned off the road and come to a stop in a plowed field. Hanson then kicked out the rear curtains ot the car and dived through. As he was coming around the side of the car, Merriam killed him. Hillstrom took charge of Bielena and telephoned the Hennepin county sher iff's office. Deputy Sheriffs Budd and Shutta were sent to the scene of the shooting by Chief Deputy Mels Clausen. Deputy Coroner H. K. Richardson ac companied them and took charge of Hanson's body. Men Visited Twin Cities Bielena, the deputies say, took them to Long Lake and Maple Plain, and showed them how they broke into the two stores. Bielena, the deputies say, admitted he and Hanson have been ab sent without leave from Camp Grant, 111., since April 6. They are members of the Sixth division, deputies say he told them. They were clad in army uniforms. Minneapolis Tribune for Saturday.

WEUM-ELKJER COT OBSERVATIONS By the Cornfield Philosopher. ON THE FIRING LINE The real issue in the contest for the nomination for State officials is just this. Shall Big Business and the ex ploiters of our public domain name the candidates or shall the common peo ple have a say in the matter? If you want the state government administered in the interest of the many you will vote the whole ticket headed by Shipstead for Governor, but if you wish the special interests of the few to dominate, you will sup port the -"other fellows." You will find a shallow brained fel low here and there objecting to gov ernment interfering with "private %en- terprise." What is the government for but to protect the people from the private enterprise of the bootlegger, the horse thief, the highwayman and the bank wrecker, and why not include the high tax shirker and the profiteer? It is said that Uncle Sam could have purchased the entire Cuban sugar crop for about six cents per pound and thereby insured an abundant sup ply to the consumer at a moderate price not exceeding ten cents, but that would have been "interfering with private enterprise" you know, and was therefore unthinkable. The fellow who likes to pay 25 to 30 cents per pound for his sugar ought to vote with the plunderbund and if the big sugar profiteers win out in the election they may raise the price to 5-0 cents. Of what value would it be for far mers to work longer hours and pro duce more when the speculators can control the only means of distribu tion? The reactionaries of our early days made a huge mistake when they neg lected or failed to prevent Benjamin Franklin from establishing the gov ernment post office. This purely So cialistic institution, or enterprise is a great object lesson to all the peo ple teaching them that everything of a Socialistic nature is not necessarily evil or wicked. Did you ever stop to think that if the government owned and operated the railways that in prinicple it would be only an extension of the functions of the post office? We have already added rural delivery of mail' and the parcels post and altho we had a bitter and long continued struggle to get them, who will dare say they are not good for the people, and who will ad vocate the repeal of this legislation? The Grangers and Farmers Alliance secured some very wholesome legis lation in both the States and the Na tion to restrain the cupidity of the railway magnates. But in the so called Esch-Cummins bill recently passed by Congress the railroad boss es get a guarantee of the right to fix their own salaries, hours of labor, and a 5V£ per cent interest or profit on the valuation they put on their property! It is estimated that the above men tioned bill adds eight billions of dol lars to the valuation the National Board of Railway Commissioners put upon all railway property. This is ap proximately $80 for every man, "wom an and child in the country or about $400 to an average family. Not only did Congress take this vast sum out of the pockets of the people and give it to the railroads but it provided that the workers should pay a perpetual in terest on this fictitious capital. Jake Preus having proven his friendship for big business in his ca pacity as State Auditor and Land Commissioner, a job he still holds, the "fat boys" propose to give him anoth er boost and land him in the Gover or's chair but the voters on the farms or in the factories and the mines will have an equal say in the matter and they are going to vote for Shipstead. Two years ago the^enemies of the people were super-loyalists and fooled lots of voters by their display of pa triotism. This time they are mas querading as 'fair taxees", or members of--the "Sound Government League", but their aim and purpose are the same and I wonder how many will be misled by their false professions in this campaign? If the politicians really favored a tonnage tax why didn't they nominate one of the men who are opposed to the N. P. League, but not completely un der the thumb of big business and who are honestly and sincerely in fa vor of such a measure? For instance there is Theodore Christianson of Dawson, a man big enough in every way for governor and I could name others. But the fact is they don't want a real governor. They want merely a "chore boy" for Big Business in the Governor's chair—one who will take orders(Maynark and as no questions.

The party left the city about seven o'clock in the morning. On this side of Howard Lake they had to detour by reason of road work being done on the trail. When coming back on the pike they were driving a iittle too fast to make the turn and the car plunged across the grade and down a ten foot embankment, turning completely over. Mr. Ross and brother who were in the front seat escaped with no more serious injuries than a severe shaking up and some painful bruises, and Con dit who was riding with Senator Cliff in the rear seat fared no worse, but the Senator was not so fortunate. Mr. Cliff does not know just how his arm was broken, but he states that he was on the under side and when the car tipped over he fell against the bow or side of the seat and Condit fell on top of him. inville Star.

Lightning- Destroys Barn and Kills Stock The electrical storm last Sunday night wrought considerable damage to Sam Newell residing in Cashel town ship. His barn was struck by lightning and completely burned, 8 horses and 7 calves were among the ruins. The har ness and all other like equipment was also burned. The loss was almost entire, only $1100 insurance was maintained. A yearling calf was killed the same night on the James McCarthy farm north of here.—De Graff Tribune. Low Tank-* Cream from top of bowl MHkfrom bottomi of bowl Sanitary base •"i lflTilJliiitT^^^^f S agree that the food supply of the future depends upon the increased use of mechanical power on the farm. The tractor, motor truck, stationary gas engine, and the automobile, all dependent upon cheap, efficient motor fuel, have multiplied the efficiency of human labor, thereby in creasing the acreage a man can handle. In 1919 farmers owned 8,900,405 of the 7,523,664 automotive vehicles registered in the United States. These figures give a fair idea of the use being made of motor vehicles in producing and distributing food products. There is. no more prolific food producing area the world than the territory served by the Standard Oil Company (Indiana). To serve the farmers of the Middle West is a major part of the Standard Oil Com pany's business. For that reason the dark, green tank wagon of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is recognized by the farmer as serving an indispensable need in promoting the increase of food products. Thousands of these tank wagons travel continuously, on schedule, throughout the 11 states of the Middle West, served by this Company. During the busy season, when the farmer needs power most, this Company delivers gasoline even to the tractors in the field. Rain or shine, these wag ons are on duty to help make certain that the nation's food supply shall be planted, harvested, and delivered on time. To enable the farmer of modest means to utilize automotive machinery in cultivating an increased acreage at a lower cost per acre, the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) strives constantly to keep down the price of gasoline by increasingly efficient refin ing methods, and to expand and perfect its com prehensive system of distribution.
