The first case of Doodle corruption 10
which the GLOBE desires to direct pub
lie attention comes from the Red river
valley, the hottest home OF farmer ro-
vulsion against Repubicanism. 1t is
natural that the wheat ring partv
should turn to that country to avert it's
impending doom. Polk county was once
Republican stronghold. but two years
ago it repented and showed under the
candidates of the state house ring, tax
ing its place as a foremost PEOPLES
party locality. Republican papers dis
appeared and the organs of the new
party sprang mp like Jonah's gourd-in a
night. 1t was in watching these papers
the certain index of popular senti-
ment in community-that the GLOBE
got its first clue to the systematic Doodle
efforts of the desperate ringsters.
The Red River Dalen, published at
Crookstou by Adolph Bydal. had always
been a consistent Peoples party sheet
until about three weeks ago. Suddenly
it showed change of front. and began
covertly attacking Donnelly. 1t
looked suspicious, and the GLOBE
quietly set to work to ascertain the
cause of the change OF heart OF its
editor. 1t required but little effort
to learn that the wheels of the Dalen
had, according to the statement of its
editor. been creased with the Doodle of
the Republican state committees; or, as
Bydal expressed it, it twas more money
to him to support Nelson" Bydal had
told this to w. G. Hunt, editor Of the Nc

disbursing it. In few days a general
meeting of the ch airmen of the several
county committees will be held at Re
publican headquarters, and each will
receive share of the Doodle, to be
placed where it will do the most good.
A portion of the S2.OOO.000 raised in
Philadelphia, of which the Republican
papers have boasted, will reach here BY
that tine, and will be used to defeat the
will of the freemen OF Minnesota, and
hold in power the inlquitOus wheat and
elevator rings that are squeezing the
lite-blood out of our farmers The. tao
tics of two years ago are to DE repeated.
Look out for the bOodlerS.
These are no idle or general charges.
The GLOBE is prepared to prove every
word it has uttered. 1t charges the
open, notorious and corrupt use of
money in an effort to check the tide

ticket.

In position to continue indefinitely the
bold highway robbery they have so long

people.
The robbing rings are not alone in this
work. They are assisted by the entire
power of the state house ring that for
thirty years has had Its foot on the neck
of the people, and.by the federal Off
Gals scattered over the state. All of
these recognize the danger that threat

to also be bribed. Tne attempt to bribe
Hunt followed as matter of course,
but it not only failed, but resulted in the
exposure of the scheme and its syste m,
and turned the light upon the doings of
the Republican committee and of GER
tain of the federal officeholders in that
locality.
l.. K. Aaker is the receiver of the
United States land office at Crookston.
He has not enough to do in attending
to the public business of his Office. but
is engaged in doing the dirty work of
the state committee. He handles the
Doodle that is used in corrupting such
newspapers as are SO lost to self-res pect
and dignity as to be purchasable. P. j.
Mcclure is chairman of the Polk county
Republican committee. He was the de-
feated candidate for state auditor last
year, and is now working Doodle
methods. NJ. S. Converse lives at De-
trolt, Becker county, and is a member
of the state central Republican COM
mittee. These three men are thus cir
cumstantially introduced to the public,
because they were the principal charac-
tiers in the Doodle operations in Polk
county, now to be detailed. In another
part of this mornings GLOBE are given
other boodling operations in detail, and
the ensemble makes interesting read
ing for followers of the party of hig h
tariff and higher moral 5. The only
other characters to be introduced are
w. G. Hunt. editor of the News, Peo-
piles party paper published at Mcintosh,
Polk county, and A. R. Holston. county
attorney of Polk county, the two men
through whose efforts the GLOBES de.
tective work was made entirely success
full.
These preliminaries lead intelligently
to the Doodle story itself. which is first
told in ordinary phraseology and then
corroborated by an affidavit in correct
legal form.

bribed away from the Peoples party.
1t charges and will prove that the
head center of this nefarious work is at
Crookston, in the heart of the Peoples
party territory, and that the corruption
job was carried out by l.. K. Aakers, re-
ceiver of the land office; P. j. Mcclure,
chairman of the Polk county Republican
committee, and MS. Converse of Becker,
member of the Republican state central
committee.
1t charges and will prove that these
men entered into conspiracy to bribe
the editor-W. G. Hunt-of the Mcln-
tosh News, and, in so conspiring. ad-
mitted that such bribery was general
and part of their campaign.
These facts the GLOBE lays before the
intelligent and free voters of the state
as indisputable evidence of two facts:
First, they show the methods by which
the -wheat-ele yator-state-
house ring has kept itself in power In
this state; second, they prove con-
clusively that it is by Doodle alone that
the party hopes to defeat the will of the
people and elect Knute Nelson gov
