half dozen in various parts of the state,

Elk River Star-News. Monticello Times,
GAINESVILLE Argus, Little Falls Tran
script, st. Cloud Tribune, Todd County

least dozen other able and influential
papers. If Mr.. Gilman should announce
himself candidate, there are at least a
half dozen more papers in this senate
rial district that would give him cor
dial support. From the standpoint of
