WILLMAR, MINNESOTA, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 22, 1914
BONDE FILES FOR SHERIFF.
Peter Bonde filed for sheriff yester
day and thus put an end to the talk
of his filing for senator. Mr. Bonde
never was an avowed candidate for
the senate, and the editor is alone
responsible for having published the
suggestion. We still believe that there
was an opportunity for Mr. Bonde in
the Senate to enlarge his sphere of
activity and be of the greatest service
to his district and the state and there
by reflect credit upon himself as well
as his constituents. There is need for
some members of senate with just the
ginger and pluck that we know Mr.
Bonde possesses. But as he does not
see his way clear to ask for this pro
motion, we are glad to support him
for a re-election to the sheriff's of
fice which he has filled so success
fully. We are confident that there
will be no serious opposition to Mr.
Bonde for this office.
A TIME-HONORED FOLLY.
Texas is not only a state of vast
area, but of varied examples of wis
dom and folly. Houston, under the
guidance of the inimitable Pastoriza,
serves as an example of one Austin,
lacking the council of the unique tax
commissioner, serves as the other.
Houston, as is now pretty well known
has undertaken to encourage enter
prise by removing taxes from indus
try, and placing them on privilege.
Austin not only does not do this, but
it has recently engaged in an under
taking that displays in all its crude
ness the folly of modern government
Austin is building, at an expense of
a million and a half dollars, a dam for
the empounding of the waters of the
Colorado River, which will make a
lake thirty-five miles long, extending
back among the beautiful hills of the
plateau, yet within the municipal
limits. The advantages of such a
body of water to the city are many,
and the building of the dam is con
sidered legitimate municipal enter
prise but it offers another illustra
tion of how the incidence of public
enterprise may be of greater conse
quence than the enterprise itself
Without the dam and lake at Austin
the land of the neighborhood is worth
but a few dollars for grazing purpos
es with the dam and lake the land is
worth hundreds, and, in favorable lo
cations, thousands of dollars per acre
And, as is usual in all such American
municipal enterprises, the land that
Is thus enhanced in value from one
hundred to three hundredfold does
not belong to those who are building
the dam. That is to say, the persons
who are paying for the dam are en
tirely separate from the persons who
are reaping the benefit.
Here is repeated in one of its most
glaring forms the time-honored folly
of the civilized world. Where could
be found a business man who would

do such a thing? Had any private
citizen undertaken to perform such a
work, he would have bought up the
lands to be benefited before building
the dam, so that the expense of put
ting in the improvement would have
been met by the advance in the values
of the land, and left a handsome pro
fit beside. The public, however, which
is merely a collection of individuals,
any one of whom would have acted
sanely had the enterprise been his
own, proceeds in no such way. De
liberately closing its eyes to the in
evitable consequences of its act, the
political body does what any individ
ual would be put in a madhouse for
doing. The making of the Austin
lake is a benefit to the whole com
munity. People, to be near the wat
er, are willing to pay a thousand doll
ars for land that before the lake was
formed was worth less than ten but
they are paying it to the wrong per
sons. They are paying it, not to those
who built the dam, but to those who
"owned" the land.
Yet the capital of Texas has not
distinguished itself by this glaring
display of folly. Similar things, iden
tical in principle, are done in every
city in the country. For the building
of a school house, the paving of a
street, or the laying out of a park has
exactly the same effect upon the sur
rounding land that the empounded
waters of the Colorado River have in
the city of Austin. One set of citi
zens pays for the improvement, and
another set of citizens reaps the fin
ancial benefit. Nor is it sufficient an
swer to say that the law does not al
low the municipality to do what ev
ery business man under the same cir
cumstances would do. The law is
merely the written expression of the
popular will, and may be altered as
often as the will of the people chang
es. The only reason why the law re
mains as it is, is because the people
remain as they are. ^And they go on
doing collectively what no one of
them would do individually because
they are unconscious of their stupid
ity. But such cases as the Austin
dam are opening their eyes.—The
Public.
An initiative bill known as "The
Fundamental Reform Act," is being
pushed in the State of Washington.
Its author, Mr. Thorwald Siegfried,
explains it as follows:
The act will require every land
owner to set a price on his land (ex
clusive of improvements) for which
he will sell and on which he will pay
taxes. The state may buy the land
at the owner's price, or any citizen
may bid the owner's price for it—if
he is willing to pay an annual ground
rent "premium," or super tax, of
which he fixefr the rate, in addition
to the general taxes. In that case the
owner must sell, or pay the annual
premium bid by the stranger this
forced sale does not apply to land
which the owner is using HIMSELF,
as a home, "store, factory, etc. The
owner can move the value of the land
down or the rate of the ground rent
premium or super-tax up, but he can
not move the value up or the rate
down. By that, means the act will
stop speculation in the FUTURE in
crease of land values and will take
them into the public' treasury for pub
lic use in the form of a "premium"
paid by absentee Jfondlords on figures
furnished by themselves.
The plan has had the criticism and
endorsement of some of the brightest
minds in the United States. It puts
the weight of private self interest on
the side of justly enforcing the law
instead of on the side of unjustly evad
ing it, as is now the case. It is a
plan whereby the people if they de
sire can administer the land values
that accrue in the future on a just
basis leaving the past as it is. It does
not invade the equities of the future
to correct the iniquities of the past.
It recognizes past abuses as abuses
and seeks to have the State of Wash
ington go and sin no more.

A Wail for Good Old Days.
When we were young, people who
had bad colds, soaked their feet in
hot water and got well now they
have lagrippe,"take quinine and are
sick all summer. Then they had
sore throat and wrapped a piece of
fat pork in an old sock tied around
the neck and went to work the next
day now they have tonsilitis, a sur
gical operation and two weeks in the
house. Then they had stomach ache,
took castor oil and recovered now
they have appendicitis and a month
in the hospital. They worked then
now they labor. In those days they
wore underwear now they wear lin
gerie. They went to the restaurant
for dinner now they go to a cafe.
Then they broke a leg, now they frac
ture a limb. They went crazy then
now they are afflicted with brain
storm. Then the good ministers
preached hell fire straight from the
shoulder now they read essays on
flowers that blossom on Mohammed's
grave. Politicians then paid good
hard cash for votes now they pay
garden seeds and so on.—Ex.
What the Atwater Editor Says.
The Willmar Tribune suggests Pet
er Bonde for Senator and there is a
possibility that he may be prevailed
upon to become a candidate for this
high position. Hon. P. A. Gandrud of
-Sunburg is strongly talked of by both
Swift and Kandiyohi county friends
Whoever the candidate may be much
will be expected of him in the way of
temperance legislation by a majority
of the voters and we believe either of
these gentlemen would worthily re
present their district in the next leg

COUNTY AGENT POE
PLANS CHOLERA FIGHT
**ig.fy,-*
Effective Co-operation Will Be
Urged to Enforce Quarantine
In response to Gov. Eberhart's pro
clamation as well as thru his own
knowledge of the necessities of the
case, County Agent Poe announces
that there will be arranged in the
near future in practically every town
ship of the county meetings to dis
cuss and formulate plans for better
quarantine methods and other steps
necessary for combatting hog cholera.
There is every evidence to show that
the germs have survived the mild
winter and have begun their depreda
tions in the county, and it behooves
every community to co-operate in
every way possible to prevent the
spread of the epidemic.
In his proclamation designating
Apr. 17 to 25 as 'Hog Cholera Week'
the governor has this to say:
"According to the best authorities,
hog cholera, a germ disease, spreads
through lack of strict quarantine reg
ulations which, if not recognized, will
eventually infect all of the hog-rais
ing sections of the Northwest. Hog
cholera may also become general
through lack of understanding of the
use of serum-virus treatment as the
use of virus simply means taking live
cholera germs to the community.
There are a great many infected com
munities through Minnesota, at the
present time and it is believed that
when warm weather arrives there
will be other serious outbreaks of the
disease unless the public generally
becomes aware of the situation and
takes measures to unitedly stamp it
out.
"The best live stock sanitary auth
orities of the country will agree that
hog cholera may be prevented and
stamped out only by following three
procedures:
"FIRST—Quarantine and thorough
disinfection of infected farms and
communities.
"SECOND—By the use of the ser
um-virus treatment in communities
where the disease is known to exist
and through a supervision of its use
in uninfected communities.
"THIRD—The strict and efficient
co-operation between the hog raisers
and neighbors and the public.
"Without this united co-operation
no effective progress can be made in
fighting the disease. In this connec
tion it is extremely important that
carriers of the disease should be ex
cluded from cholera farms and that
all sources of infection should become
common knowledge.
"These and other matters pertain
ing to hog cholera are of vital inter
est to the citizens of Minnesota and
all such citizens should post theft
selves as to methods of dealing with
the present situation."
The farmers of the north part of
the county are invited to attend the
first meeting to be held at New Lon
don Town Hall, Saturday afternoon,
Apr. 25. Prof. C. L. McNelly of Will
mar will assist County Agent Poe in
leading the discussion.
Run Your Own Saloon.
To the married man who cannot
get along without his drinks we sug
gest the following as a solution to
the bondage of his habit.
Start a saloon in your own house.
Be the only customer. You will have
no license to pay.
Go to your wife and give her $2 to
buy a gallon of whiskey, and remem
ber there are sixty drinks in one
gallon.
Buy your drinks from no one but
your wife, and by the time the first
gallon is gone, she will have $4.00 to
put in the bank and $2 to start busi
ness again.
Should you live ten years and con
tinue to buy booze from her and then
die with snakes in your boots, she
will have money enough to bury you
decently, educate your children, buy
a house and lot, and marry a decent
man and quit thinking of you—An
Unknown Exchange.

DR. JOHN A. HEALY.
[We are indebted to the editress of
the Green Lake Breeze for the follow
ing obituary and appreciation of the
late Dr. Healy, physician at Spicer.]
A death which brought deep sorrow
to the village and the entire surround
ing community, occured Monday fore
noon when Dr. A.
Healyonce
recelto
all humanity, and from which there
is no escape. He had been ailing for
some time, and while it was general
ly known that he was failing, the end
was not believed to be so near, as he
had been up and around up to the
day previous to his death. Last Mon
day morning he grew very much
worse, and it became evident to his
wife that his condition was serious.
All that could be done to relieve him
was done, but to no avail, and the
end came at about eleven o'clock. De
ceased was a man of almost insur
mountable will power, which was
never so clearly proven as by his
brave fight against the disease that
had laid its hold upon him, and his
wonderful courage remained with
him to the last
John A. Healy was born in New
York City on Sept. 20, 1869. Moved
to St. Paul where he attended St.
Thomas College. Later he graduated
from Tuft's College, Boston. He was
a member of the Phi Kappa Gamma
fraternity. For some time he prac
ticed medicine in his home city, af
ter which he located at Graceville,
this state, at which place and Wheat
on he enjoyed a very large and suc
cessful practice in his chosen profes
ion.
On Oct. 9, 1907, he was united in
marriage to Miss Lillian Levander, of
Grove City, who now lives to bitterly
mourn the loss of one of the nearest
and dearest in all the world to her.
The following year was spent in
Texas, and in 1909 he located in this
village, becoming at once actively en
gaged in the practice of medicine, in
which he was most successful thru
out this and surrounding territory. A
few months ago his condition of
health became such that he was
obliged to give up active work, con
tinuing, however, to prescribe for and
give advice to his patients, who were
unwilling to receive aid from any
other as long as their beloved doctor
was able to give them his attention
In the passing away of this good
man Spicer loses one of her most pro
gressive and influential citizens, and
his loss will be keenly felt in the vill
age. He took a deep interest in all
matters pertaining to affairs of public
improvement of every kind, and was
from the time of his arrival here un
til his death, a member of the Board
of Health. During the year 1912 he
was president of the village council,
and here as always he used his influ
ence toward promoting public wel
fare, working and striving unceasing
ly for the betterment of surrounding
conditions. His whole life was a
source of inspiration to those with
whom he came in contact, and altho
he is gone, his work still lives, and
of him it may truly be said that the
world was made better by his life.
He was a man of brilliant mental
powers, possessed of unlimited sup
ply of humor, and his quick, ready wit
and refreshing originality, were a
constant delight to his associates. He
was a true friend, faithful and trust
worthy kind to the unfortunate and
encouraging to the discouraged, and
he enjoyed in the fullest degree the
love, trust and deep friendship of all
those who came within the circle of
his life.
He was a member of the Catholic
church. He was also a member of
the Green Lake Camp of the M. W. A
The funeral took place yesterday,
the services consisting of High Mass
at 10 o'clock in the chapel at the Mc
Manus residence, with the funeral
sermon at 10:30 at the doctor's home
Rev. Father McDevitt of Willmar,
himself an old-time schoolmate of the
deceased while at St. Thomas College,
conducted the last rites. A large
throng of friends had assembled to
pay their last respects to the dead,
and to cast one last look upon the face
that had brought cheer and comfort
to so many, as he went among them
ministering to their ills and relieving
their sufferings.
There were beautiful floral offer
ings from the Spicer Commercial
Club, the local M. W. A. Camp and
the pupils and teachers of the Spicer
schools, besides the many personal
offerings.
The pall bearers were John Tait,
Jr., Peter Henderson, Wm. Nelson,
Oscar A. Orred, Edw. Quam and Al
bert Anderson. During the funeral
services all the business houses and
the schools were closed in respect to
the memory of the deceased.
The remains were laid to rest in
the Spicer cemetery, amid a profusion
of beautiful flowers.
Deceased is mourned by his wife,
two sisters and two brothers, Misses
Margaret and Elizabeth, Mr. James
Healy, all of St. Paul, and Mr. Frank
Healy of Boston. Besides the above
those in attendance at the last rites
were Mr. Houston of Wheaton, a
friend of the late doctor, and Mrs
Levander, of Grove City, who is Mrs.
Healy's mother.
The sympathy of the entire com
munity goes out to the bereaved ones
in their great loss.
Deeper, deeper grow the shadows,
Paler now the glowing west,
Swift the night of death advances
Shall it be the night of rest?
Tarry with me, O my .Saviour,
Lay my head upon Thy breast
Till the morning then awake me—
Morning of eternal rest.

DASTARDLY DELIBERATE DE
A I I N OF G. N. TRAIN
Three Ladt Confess to the Aet Com
mitted While Under Influence
of Liquor.
Three young men residing in the
vicinity of Albany were arrested this
morning by Special Agent Hagen,
Deputy Sheriff Frank Bettenberg and
Chief 'of Police Ed. Brick on the
the summonJohn
that comes I charge of wrecking Great Northern
train No. 6 last Wednesday evening.
The train leaves this city shortly
after 10 o'clock and it was about 11
that the three young men placed steel
tie plates and spikes on the rails,
causing the entire train, with the cars
filled with passengers, to leave the
track and cut along into the ties for
a distance of 400 yards, with the mir
aculous result of not causing injury
to a single person.
The young men are Charles Chris
tine, Nick Fandel and George St.
Claire, aged 22, 26 and 17 years re
spectively, and are employed in a saw
mill a few miles this side of Albany
According to their story they were
out walking late Wednesday night
and were drinking whiskey and de
clare that in their intoxicated condi
tion they were looking for excitement
and for that reason attempted the
daring act of wrecking a train load of
passengers, regardless of loss of hu
man life, property or anything else.
That no person was injured in the
wreck is indeed miraculous, and due
to the hand of Providence alone, for
the train completely left the rails and
traveled along cutting the ties prac
tically in two for a distance of 400
yards, passing over a bridge at the
same time.
After the wrecking occurred Spec
ial Agent Hagen, with local author
ities, went to Albany in Sheriff Ben
Schoener's auto and following a com
plete investigation made the arrest
of the three young men and secured
complete confessions from each of
them.
The three men are being held in
the county jail here and as soon as
County Attorney Ahles returns, com
plaint will be made against the men
and their trial will be held here. The
men are fortunate in escaping with
merely a wrecking of the train, for
as reported by the railroad officials,
a case of this kind very seldom hap
pens without fatalities and murder
charges.—St. Cloud Journal-Press.

San Diego, April 21—Action by the
Transcontinental Passenger Associ
ation at its recent meeting in San
Francisco, on railroad rates to Cali
fornia during 1915, the exposition
year, has caused officials of the San
Diega Exposition, which opens on
January 1, 1915, and continues open
the entire year, to feel assured of a
large attendance or visitors from
eastern states at this exposition.
A one-way fare for the round trip
to the Panama-Pacific Exposition in
San Francisco, to Los Angeles nad
the Panama-California Exposition at
San Diego, from all points west of
Chicago was agreed upon by the
Transcontinental Passenger Asso
ciation.

Redwood's Homecoming.
While in Minneapolis Monday Sen
ator Clague visited the studio of Art
ist T. B. Walker, who has the finest
collection of paintings of noted In
dians and Indian fighters in the coun
try. The collection consists of por
traits of Gen. Custer, Buffalo Bill, or
William Cody, Wild Bill, Kit Carson
and many of the noted frontiersmen,
and Little Crow, Sitting Bull, and
other leaders of the once hostile In
dians.
Mr. Walker has promised to loan
his magnificent collection to our city
during our 50th anniversary in June,
and will send an expert to set them
up in the Armory where the display
will be on exhibition during our big
Home Coming celebration.
This fine collection, with the many
relics of early pioneer days, will
doubtless be one of the leading feat
ures of the occasion.—Redwood Falls

ACT QUICKLY
Delay Has Been Dangerous in Will
mar.
Do the right thing at the right time.
Act quickly in time of danger.
In time of kidney danger Doan's
Kidney Pills are most effective.
Plenty of Willmar evidence of their
worth.
Mrs. Peter Olson, 126 Benson Ave.
E., Willmar, Minn., says: "One in our
home had lots of trouble with his back
and kidneys and never got anything
that seemed to do any good until he
used Doan's Kidney Pills. Three
years ago he had such a bad back
that he would just give out at times.
The weakness and pain across his
back made it hard for him to do any
thing and if he took cold, the trouble
was always worse. Kidney weakness
California expositions will be given I also caused him lots of annoyance.
the opportunity of being routed
through Los Angeles, and the visit
ors will be able to take in both ex
positions on one ticket.
The rates agreed upon are the
same as those allowed during the
Alaska-Yukon-Pacific at Seattle, and
are practically the rates asked by the
directors of the Expositions.
The destinations named on the tick
ets will be Oakland, San Francisco,
Los Angeles and San Diego. The
rates will go into effect March 1,
1915, and will end November 30. The
tickets will have a return limit of
three months, with the proviso that
no return will be good after Decem
ber 31, 1915.
From Missouri River points, which
include Omaha, Kansas City, St. Jo
seph and Atchinson, the round-trip
rate will be $50. Other rates from
railroad centers are fixed as follows:
St. Louis, $57.50: Chicago, $62.50
Denver, Colorado Springs, Pueblo,
$45 Peoria, $59.25.
Proportionate rates from points
not mentioned will be offered.
Failing to find help, he was certainly
glad when he began using Doan's
Kidney Pills to find that they were
the remedy he needed. They soon
had him feeling lots better and it
wasn't long before his back was
strong and well and his kidneys nor
mal. Since then, he has never had
much trouble, but always uses Doan's
Kidney Pills when he feels the least
out of sorts. They always do fine
work."
Price 50c, at all dealers. Don't sim
