All Tore UP by the Scramble For Gov
ern0r.
+ Saltwater Lumberman: There is heap of
humbug about the Pillsbury boom.
Preston Republican,: Gen. Hubbard is q
man upon whose character no stain exists.
Elk River Star: Men who were opposed to
Pillsbury two years ago are outspoken in his
favor now.
Sank Center Herald; Governor Pillsbury is
the peoples candidate. In him they have the
utmost confidence.
Todd county Age: The indications are that
both Pillsbury and Hubbard will be beaten in
the convention the 28th.
Mazeppa Tribune: Our choice is Gen. Hub
bard, and we would like to see the backbone
of the Ramsey ring broken.
Austin Mercury Gen. Hubbard is the
popular choice of the people for governor, be
cause she has no rings or politicians working
for him."
Zumbrota Independent: The boom for Gen.
Hubbard seems to be gaining strength, not
withstanding the contradictory reports of the
Pioneer Press. soe
Rochester Record and Uuion: The indica-
tiOns are in favor of Gen. Hubbard's nomina-
ton, Notwithstanding the bitter denunciatlon
of the Pioneer Press.
Austin Transcript: Gen. Hubbard is a
good man, deserving the confidence of his
party and the party at large, and we believe he
will be our next governor.
Mankato Free Press: If there is such a
thing as killing man with kindness, Gov.
Pillsbury bids fair to be the victim, and the
Pioneer Press the executioner.
Faribault Democrat: Honest John makes a
good governor for the Pioneer Press, Min
hyr% - sn4 ok1
lions of the state should put in bid.
Anoka City Herald: Hubbard's boom was
well illustrated by Kings balloon. 1t started
off enthusiastically enough, but was too heav-
lily loaded and soon sank quietly out of sight.
Marshall Messenger: We find no reason for
changing our views, expressed several weeks
ago, that it will be well to permit Gov. Pills
bury to have another term in the gubernatorial
Office
Wlnnebago City Meas: The people gener-
ally would rather see Gov. Pillsbury re-nom-
mated than any one of the other candidates
that have been mentioned for the position up
to date.
st. Charles Union: There is no public ex-
igency demanding his denomination; Mr.. Pills.
bury himself does not desire it; and, belsdes,
the Republicans of the state have other men
in view.
Sank Center Tribune; Mr.. Pillsbury had
better get rid of his p. p friends as soon as
possible and withdraw from the canvass. 1t
is astonishingly surprising that he should
demand fourth term.
Owatonna Journal: We would suggest
that Pillsbury be made dictator for life, were
1t not for the fact that his aspirations for the
United States senatorship would likely cause
him to reject the crown.
Litchfeld Neaus. Ledger: No doubt those
interested in the bonds will be loud in their
elamor for an extra session this winter. To
prevent this we would suggest the nomination
OF Gen. Hubbard for governor.
Big Stone Herald: L. F. Hubbard has made
considerable progress in the race and may car.
ry off the prize, but if SO, it will be through
well trained wires and not through any spon.
taneous support from the rank and file of the
party.
Austin Register: We do not wish to attack
Gov. Pills5ury, but we do want q governor
this time, who is not a Minneapolis man. The
fairest portion of our state is embraced in the
limits commonly known as southern Min.
nesOta.
Blue Earth City Journal: If we cannot
have Mr.. Thompson, the only southern Min.
nesOta men in the field, then of all the men
yet named for the place, give us PilIsbury for
fourth term, which "fourth term" has no
horrors for us.
Waseca Radical: Honesty is a good thing,
and John has dead loads of it-hid away
somewhere probably, but we wonder some
times why IN thunder he don't let little of ii
come to the front, seeing honesty is about all
he has for recommend.
Albert Lea Enterprise; The uprising of the
people in all parts of the state indicates with
out doubt that they wish to select their gov
ernor outside of st. Paul and Minneapolis.
Hubbard stock is booming outside the Pho.
neer Press editorial rooms.
Litchfeld NeaDs Ledger; The gubernatoria]
fight las resolved itself down to Gen. Hub
bard backed by the outside delegations, and
anybody to beat Hubbard backed by st. Paul
and Minneapolis fuglers; with the chances
largely in favor of Hubbard.
St. Cloud Journal Press: While strongly
in favor of the denomination of Governor
Pillsbury we have no sympathy with the per-
s0nal attacks which are made on General Hub.
bard, whom from an acquaintance of many
years we believe to be an honest, honorable
man.
Pine Island News; The people of Minneso-
ia, and when we say people, we do not mean
Ramsey comfy, st. Paul, Minneapolis, state
prison ring or the Pi-Press, but we mean the
voters outside OF the present gubernational
rings, are not hankering for John Pillsbury's
great third term honors.
Hastings Ne,O Era: It is an insult to the
governor to assume that he is not in earnest
in this matter, and those who insist on drag
cling him into a contest only merit the con-
tempt of the governor and his sincere friends.
Governor Pillsbury's word and honor is too
well known in the state to even expect that he
will retract, under any circumstances, from
his statement.
Albert Lea Standard: The simple fact OF
the whole matter is that Pillsbury is the can
didate of the bondholders and the Pioneer
Press is their organ. If Pillsbury is endorsed
by reelection the next thing will be spe-
clal session of the legislature, which passed
the Infamous act constituting the bond tri.
bunal, and its work will be to provide for the
payment of those bonds.
St. Peter Tribune: Some of the Hubbard
organs are pretty sensitive to the criticisms
on their candidate, but we notice they have
not been at all particular when dealing with
other candidates. The attempt of few OF
them to belittle Mr.. McGill is in bad taste.
They probably do not know the man. He is
