= THE Pops and the Dems have been
raising up their voices in lamentation
and an crying ALOUD for years in demand
for a pure primary law and a corrupt
>practice act. Well, the last legista-
ture gave it to them, and now they are
growing louder than ever because
they got it. They have been in the
habit for years Of getting together and
fighting it OUT in ONE secluded spot
and putting up almost any kind&of an
old ticket, and it went through. Under
the new law there is a little more sys-
tenn and order about it, and of course
the Democrats didn't underestimate and
didn't comply with the law. Then
when their attention was called to the
fact that their ticket was not properly
made up, and they r compelled to
get on in a good many counties by pc
tition, they we're madden than ever.
You may enact the best law in the
world, but there never was a legisla-
ture elected in the world that could
enact a mind for the Democratic party.

BEFORE any of u big battle ships
go out of commission let us pray the
Lord that they may be turned loose on
that unspeakable crowned vagabond,
the sultan of Turkey, whose throne
reeks with the blood of g. million
Christian martyrs. Russia wanted to
wipe this blood spot from the face of
the earth a quarter of a century ago,
and England stepped in and stopped
the holy work. Never since the Sara
Gems drove the Crusaders from the holy
land have the Turks ceased to hate the
Christian or to assassinate him upon
opportunity. Time has been when one
European nation was ready to go in
and punish the offender, but there was
always some other "Christian" nation
to which Turkey was in debt, and the
concert of the powers always inter
fered. Now is our chance. Let US go
in and lick Turkey, even if we have1to
pay some of her debts for the privilege,

DEMOCRATIC LEGISLATIVE
$ ~ -aNO1TNEESt,

At the 45th Legislative district Dem
ocratfc convention held in Elk River
last Thursday two places were left va
cant, and Mr.. John Coleman, Of Anoka
county, was nominated forthe senate,
and Mr.. p. NJ. Peterson, Of Isanti
county, for the house. No nominations
we're made from Mile Laos orSher-
burne: The action of the convention
virtually amounts to an endorsement
of Hon. A. N. Dare and Hon. HI. r.
Mallette. The Republican majority
in. the district is so large that the
Democrats concluded it was useless for
them to attempt to elect a full ticket,
hence they determined to concentrate
their efforts on the senate and one rep
resentative This was a polite move
on the part,of the democrats, but it is
highly improbable thateither Mi, Cole
mai or Mr.. Peterson will be elected.
Mr.. Peterson, the house nominee, is
personally unknown to the UNION.
Mr.. Coleman, the, nominee for senator,
is=a solid farmer and one Of the best
known citizens Of Anoka county; at
present he is a member of the State
board. OF managers of hospitals for the
insane; he is held in high esteem by
men Of all parties in his home county,
and he will undoubtedly run ahead of
his ticket in Anoka county.
