Jonas Olson was born in Sweden

to tbe United States and three years

eight children, six of whom survive.

Mr. Olson died Aug. 24, 1919, the
cause of death being cancer. The

Tbia country must deal promptly
with the spirit of lawlessness now
raising its head everywhere. We have
been altogether too lax in our immi-
! gration laws. The Bolshevist and his
j allies sbouid promptly be expelled
from the country.
There may be tbose w'*o tbink Mr.
Willis sbouid net have discussed tbe
Lea-rue of Nations. We do not agree
with this, it is tbe one question tba**.
should be discussed. Not in a century
bas there been a question fraught
with greater danger, yet the average
citizen pays no attention to it. There
bas been a persistent attempt in high
quarters to keep the country in ignorance respecting tbe matter. It is
well nigh impossible for the Senate
to get tbe information it needs to
proceed intelligently.
We believe Mr. Willis is absolutly
right wben be says tbat no ooe wbo
claims that certain clauses of the
League mean thus and so should object to baving tbem stated in language tbat tbe ordinarv man can
understand. Wben able lawyers cannot agree as to to their meaning, it is
quite evident that something ie j
wrong When it is admitted tbat the
American draft of a League contained
no reference whatever to the "Monroe Doctrine" and tbe clause that we
now bave was written by ao finglisb-
man, it may be well to examine
it somewhat.
Mr. Willis declared emphatically
be belief tbat we need not worry about
tbe nations of Europe accepting any
amendment we may make to tbe
League covenant. Ours is about the
only solvent cation in the world and
they are only too anxioas that we become the pack horse of the world.

R-.a! estate ssles are getting quite
'omoon now and each sale a,emo. an
taction usually. No one any loDger,
'.biuks uf baving an auction without
advertising it In the newspaper. A
very few dollars thus expended safely
means one hundred, perhaps several
oundred, in the receipts of the sale.
Invaribly and always it is tbe bidders

•ion a success. When a man goes 15

will nut let ten or fifteen dollars pre-
vant bis getting it. At that distance
away he will not see a bill and would
know nothing of the auction save
from the newspaper. Notice these-
