CO-OP'S THRONG

Assembly Park at Willmar the
Scene of Notable Gathering
Last Thursday.
The co-operative picnic held at
Assembly Park last Thursday was
attended by a crowd estimated to
have numbered two thousand people.
Approximately fifteen hundred par
ticipated in the dinner which was
served by the ladies, bountiful sup
plies having been brought from the
country as well as the city. All the
co-operative store movements in the
county were well represented at the
meeting.
In the afternoon a wind storm ac
companied by rain frightened a large
number to leave early, but the big
auditorium was well filled with par
ticipants to hear the speaking pro
gram. The Willmar Military Band
under the leadership of Theo. Olson,
contributed a number of selections
of stirring music. Hon. P. H. Frye
was the chairman of the meeting and
made some preliminary remarks. He
introduced as the first speaker of
the afternoon, Gov. A. 0. Eberhart.
The governor launched into one of
his characteristic speeches. He com
plimented the co-operators of Kan
diyohi county on the success of their
movement. He touched on the edu
cational question and urged the mak
ing of farm life attractive by pro
viding music in the homes. He said
he had many loyal friends in Kandi
yohi for which he was thankful. He
also had opposition which he was
also duly thankful. In common with
all people, he knew he was not fault,
less and knew he had made mistakes,
but he was trying to profit by these
mistakes and thought that a better
understanding was being arrived at.
A kicker is useful often times, while
a knocker is destructive. He defined
a kicker as one who complains to the
responsible party in the hope of bet.
tering conditions, while the knocker
goes about criticizing promiscuously
to everybody, but to the proper par
ty. He said his administration had
been successful in enforcing laws,
and spoke of the necessity of regu
lating public service corporations,
but made no direct mention of the
special session of the legislature
which he expects to call this fall.
He closed with a quotation of poetry
and Avas given a round of hearty ap
plause. Throughout his remarks a
windstorm was raging outside, rain
pattered on the roof and occasional
ly Thor would rumble with his char
iot through the clouds. This led the
governor to compliment the com
mtlfnity on having:„sb gKd a?buildiiig
on their picnic grounds for protec
tion against sudden showers. The
rainstorm was sweet music to all,
however, for the fields were in great
need of moisture.
The next speaker was J. A. Vye
of the St. Paul Dispatch, formerly
with the Agricultural department of
the State University. He was an en
tertaining talker and spoke at some
length on the significance of the co
operative movement. He advocated
the addition of the co-operative
laundry to the co-operative cream
ery, which would relieve the farmer's
wife of some of the heaviest drudg
ery.
J. R. Morley of Owatonna, asso
ciate editor of the Minnesota Dairy
man, was next called on. While
complimenting the people of the
county for their success in co-oper
ative merchandising, he called atten
tion to the fact that the co-opera
tive creameries of Kandiyohi coun
ty are losing ground, and stated as
his opinion that the first concern of
the farmers should be the manufac
ture and proper marketing of their
own produce. He could not see the
logic in cutting but the middlemen
on one side only, and then turning
over the profits of one of their most
important productive enterprises to
the centralizers. He gave one in
stance of a man who was receiving
a monthly check of over $400 from
a herd of 28 cows, but thought it
would be difficult to realize such
profits if the farmers themselves
lose control of the butter industry.
A number of local people were
then called on for remarks. Of these
Atty. Chas. Johnson and V. E. Law
son responded. Chairman Frye fin
ally called on A. 0. Nelson to tell
of the success of co-operation at
Svea. This Mr. Nelson refused to
do, but invited everyone to come to
Svea and see for themselves what
has been accomplished.
In conclusion Gov. Eberhart asked
the band to play America and the
audience rose to its feet and sang
the National anthem with the gover
nor beating time and leading the
singing.
This ended the formal exercises,
but the band continued a concert
from the stage while the people lin
gered in groups in the auditorium
waiting for the rain to cease.
The picnic was declared a great
success by the promoters, and the
rain was so welcome that no one
complained that it had somewhat in
terfered with the day's doings.

A special to the Pioneer Press
from St. Cloud, Minn., June 21, tells
the following" romance: "Bert Hall
was released from the St. Cloud re
formatory this morning and given a
seventy-two mile ride at high speed
in State Agent Knickerbocker's au
tomobile to Willmar so that Bertha
Berkness, who had waited for three
years to marry him, might not be
disappointed.
"Hall was arrested three and a
half years ago in Willmar after an
alleged carousal with a number of
Willmar young men, one of whom
accused him of stealing a purse. At
the tima he was engaged to Miss
Berkness, who then lived in Nebras
ka.
"Hall protested his innocence,
but was tried, convicted and sen
tenced to spend six years in St.
Cloud. He wrote to Miss Berkness
and told her. She said she would
wait the six years, if necessary, for
the prison doors to open for him.
She came to Minnesota and obtain
ed employment in Willmar. Then
she began a fight to obtain his free
dom.
"While she worked insistently on
the outside in his behalf, Hall be
came, a model prisoner. His atti
tude won the attention of the prison
authorities and the pardon board.
"Partly due to his efforts to ob
serve the prison discipline and part
ly due to Miss Berkness' appeals for
Mm, his term was cut to three years
and the date of discharge fixed.
"He told State Agent Knicker
bocker he planned to marry Miss
Berkness as soon as released. He
believed he would be out in time to
board a train that would take him
to Willmar by noon, at which time
the Avedding was to take place.
"There was a delay, however, and
he Avas released just a feAV minutes
after the train had left.
"Mr. Knickerbocker volunteered to
get him there and they set out in the
automobile. It took nearly three
hours to make the trip, but they
reached Willmar just before noon.
"After the ceremony the couple
left for the West, where they intend
to start all over."
