Still trying to brew a tempest in a teapot, Phil., *???J?%% If only beer can be divorced from its past surroundings its intrinsic harmless ness can quickly be proven. It is too bad that so "good" a town as St. Peter should be represented by such a bunch of quitters as their ball team proved itself to be last week. The loss of a game of ball is certainly less to be deplored than the loss of sports manship among the players and here is where the St. Peters boys fell down. The Lord loveth a cheerful giver and equally everybody hateth a poor loser. Time for the St. Peter newspapers to get busy and educate their team to play the game to the last crack of the bat.^. If murders of Americans" are "all that our state department needs to ''force it to adopt a radical change in its policy with regard to Mexico," as the state department said, does any one doubt that the oil interests are able and willing to furnish these kill ings? If they are anxious to have thousands of Americans killed in de clared war, moral scruples certainly would not prevent them from hiring a few killings to start it. ... With the smoke curtain that the censorship and its ally, the capitalistic press, have thrown around Russian affairs, it is impossible for the ordinary reader to obtain a fair idea what the Bolsheviki and their policies really are, and it will probably take a long time and considerable fearless criticism before we can dispel this smoky cloud and be able to see the Russian revolution in its true colors. Meanwhile we must per force content ourselves with whatever fragmentary evidence we can obtain. The Lord saves from our so-called British cousins. We don't know how President Wilson felt when he was sit ing next to Lloyd George, the chief representative of thatrapaticous govern ment which has no regard for any human rights and feeling if they interfere with its lust of power and domination. But we know that millidns of American citizens repudiate the friendship of these gentlemen. Our readers are aware of the crimes committed by the English government and which must have been known to our representatives at the peace table. Very little or nothing at all, however is said about them in the daily press. Why? Because they are influenced and dominated by the self-same British masters. All through the war of this country against Germany "we were fed by the most insidious Eng lish propaganda and even now we are in the grip of this same influence. Jlnd as long as our people are not able or do not care to go to other sources for the formation of their opinion about world affairs their minds cannot be set right as to the origin of the Great War and as to the actual brutality of the British rule wherever the Union Jack is carried. About, the effectiveness of the British propaganda in this country we read in the Irish World (June Ziy.-T* "With the advent of that most malign influence in modern journalism, Lord Northcliffe, the American press sold out to British influence in everything. The Anglo-Saxon idea became intensi fied in the Republic, later rampant, and at present it is toxic, through the lying and cajoling of the press agencies and the daily press. How powerful that ly ing and cajoling became may be seen in the common belief here that England was not prepared for the German de claration of war, that she was .takenby surprise, completely unprepared, and would have perished but for her super human powers. Now that Asquith and Lord Haldane have declared that Eng land was ready for the war, that it was expected for twenty years, and that the English armies and fleets were ready /within twenty-four hours for action, the credulous public, stupefied with lies, can hardly believe them. ., "That public is not to be blamed. -With the Anglo-Saxon faction lying _,.and intriguing all the time, with British /gold circulating freely through all our ._../*V 'channels of publicity, with the press -*Cand the press agencies dominated or di -, 7^f Erected or influenced by the Northcliffes ^--"-u'.'/^and London finance, with the foolish T--^marriages of our heiresses to English ^h&tSjS^ ./exploitation of the world, with"Presi S -.'xlent Wilson, his cabinet and the dying f%ti Democratic party basking in British yt sunlight, it is not to be expected that the eommon people can "escape the "con a on of such infloence and ©sample."

An exact date has not been set, but it will be between September 12 and 20. It is said that many farmers in the valley are dissatisfied with the present handling of the mattert£A good speaker who knows the situation thoroughly will be present and tell the farmers what should be done to avoid the destruction of large crops in the Minnesota valley in the future, at least as far as possible. Farmers, interested in this movement, should watch for the announcement of the exact date of the meeting, which is to be made in the near future 5 & ,V ~£T" r_ #£$$&$& &?£ JOS.
