but he had seasoned them with
wool, Everyone took the joke in
good part, and picked the wool out
of his teeth. The after part Of the
night was passed i'll playing games.

IN his impromptu speech to the
1000 people who gathered around
Gov. Mckinley in the lobby of the
West hotel in Minneapolis he said
among many other good and torcible
points: 1--WE have got everything
in "a that we had '9a, except pros
perity. The past year has been one
OF compulsory education. Everybody
has been to school, and while there
has been no tuition to Fay, the gen
eral result has been a very expensive
one to the people. We have the same
men; we have the same money; we
have the same machinery we had in
'oe but we have a new management.
We have the same push and the
same perseverance; the same splen-
did manufacturing plants but we
have new manager and new
engineer, and the engineer has not
had any experience since before the

The Benson County News says
that now the time for state con-
vention draws nigh harmony in the
republican party is breaking out in
great big chunks all over the state.
The News is correct. The republi-
can party will continue to harmonic
right along until election and then
having consolidated itself into a solid
body like the great mountain
avalanches we read about, will start
on its slide and will make a clean
sweep of everything in sight next
fall. The republican party leaders
will not make the common error
they made two years ago, and will
put ticket in the field this trip that
wilt be a winner.

WE are informed that Prof. Soils
ness of Dazey, is figuring to run for
superintendent Of schools OF Griggs
county. While we do not at all
doubt the gentleman's competency
for that position we would as friend
advise him to drop out OF the deal
as he would be clean out of sight
after the ballots are counted. The
gentleman must be possessed OF ex-
traordinary nerve if he thinks he can
come up from Barnes county twenty
four hours before election and be
elected superintendent of Griggs
county. In the first place he is not
qualified to run in this county as tie
law requires residence in the county
of six months and ninety days in the
precinct. Then again, Griggs county
possesses three gentlemen who are
qualified for this Office, each one Of
whom can draw the regular monthly
salary without any trouble, SO that It
is hardly necessary for any importa-
tions from Barnes county. Of course
Mr.. Solsness being a candidate is
only rumor, but if he is in earnest
we would gently advise him to lay
his aspirations to rest and "cover
them over with beautiful flowers"
