was made judge. Would Elliott have
the public understand him as saying
that he was appointed Empry's success

Some one should introduce John
GoodnOw 10 himself-Some one, that is,
who has the good of the Republican
party at heart. AS soon as he was
elected president of that organization of
callOw politicians and political sand
baggerS known as the State League of
Republican Clubs, John set himself uD
for boss. But the party wouldn't
stand his bossng. The state central
committee sat upon him several times.
Then the earlier county conventions
swatted him with stuffed clubs. 1t is
believed that his course Ill this
campaign is actuated by de-
sire for revenge through the de-
feat of the Republican candidates.
Johns frantic eSpOusal of the cause of

might have elected auditor. was prob
ably GOOdnoW'S way of defeating
strong aspirant for the nomination, and
that was what did defeat Mannix.
Goodnow helped to set up William
Henry Eustis. also, because he is weak.
and now is doing his best 10 defeat him
by making foolish speeches. Goodnow
IS ringing all the changes on j. G.
Haynes vote for the Rand ordinance.
Of course, Gondnow knew and the pub
tic knows that Goodnow didn't become
an opponent of the Rand ordinance until
he thought he could make himself solid
with the Union league by oppos-
ing it. Dave CiOugh used to be
Goodnow's political godfather and
Clough was the promoter of aldermanic
interest for the Rand ordinance. Aid.
Woodward, now up for reelection, has
long been GoOdnOw'S protege, and he
was heart and soul for the Rand ordi-
ance. Goodnow himself was for the
Rand ordinance until the campaign
opened.
But if you want to know what plenty
of solid, honorable Republicans think
Of the course of Eustis. Goodnow and
the rest of the Union league gang of
tIme-seryers toward the Rand ordinance,
look up the flies of the newspapers of
early March of this year and read what
an old, honored ana honorable Repub-
lican. Aid. Fred &. BarroWS, had to say
about them.
Some of the Republican members of

County Commissioner Coburn's can,

ticket from the East side is hot glitter
ing success. Mr.. Co5urn is confronted
with many obstacles, one i'll particular
his record as commissioner during the
past four years. The ScandinaviaDS

ConrOy. the Democratic nominee. They
say that Mr.. COburn insulted the Sean
ferred scandalous charges against II. 0.
Peterson, the county treasurer. that did
not have the least foundation. At the
time Peterson was removed Mr.. COburn
said:
1T is only a short time before the
Americans. Irish and Germans will
have TO unite against the Scandina-
VANS"
The Republicans are not especially
pleased with Coburn'S record. Many
of them, and laboringmen, too, say that
he has been hiring Democrats to work
at Lake Minnetonka and on the
county roads simply to build up his
political fences.
AS election day draws near AID.
Bradish grows uneasy. Two years ago
he popped up as E. NJ. Johnson's run
ming mate on the Lowry legislative
ticket. and the people turned his pict-
ure toward the wall" Mir. Bradish was
not very popular with the people of the
Ninth ward at that time, and, strange
TO say, he Is not held in high esteem
now, especially by the laboring classes.
He is looked upon as an agent of
Thomas Lowry in the council, more
than representative for the ward.
His vote has always been in the
interest of the street railway, and.
it is said, Lowry has repaid
him for his faithful services by
appointing him claim agent for the 500
railway. Whether this is true or not no
one knows. but there is one thing Ger
tain, Thomas Lowry is boss of the 500
road and Aid. BradiSh is the solicitor.
In one OF the Ninth ward Democratic
clubs is hung a large sign that reads:
''By voting for Bradish for alderman
you cast your ballot i'll the interests of
Thomas Lowry, who compelS every man
to sign away his birthrights before get
ting employment the of street rail way"
