Said a well-known machine agent
Saturday: 1t my estimates to my
house for harvesting machines for ust
in Stearns county this season are
verified by the facts, then the record
for this county will break all record
of the manufacturers for any county In
any state in the union for any year.
How many machines do I say? Not
less than $50 to be in this county. -
Journal Press.
That this estimate is justified il
evidenced by the number of orders al
ready booked by Sank Centre dealers,

HOW THE LEADER LED.

From the beginning of his public life it has
often been said of Colonel Roosevelt. both by
men who have helped and men who have tied
to hinder his progress. that his judgment was
less certain than his sincerity. If there was
some ground for that belief in years past, we
confidently expect TO find in his performance or
the new duties which await him clear proofs
that his wisdom has rlpened with his intelli-
gence 1t is already evident from the result of
the election that his political judgment of the
way to win was better than that of some Of his
most experienced advisers. His own speeches.
here. there and everywhere, were the chief feat
ure of the campaign, and we suppose nobody
now doubts that without them he would have
been defeated but they were not n part of the
original plan Of operations. 1t may be SAID
without the slightest ill-wlll toward Mr.. Odell,
whose management grew In energy and intelli-
gcnce TO the last that at the outset he desired
20 have the Republican candidate confine HIM
self to n few formal addresses.
But Colonel Roosevelt dsccrned the fact that
the situation required him to make a speaking
campaign. TO meet IS many of the people rs pos
siblc face TO face and to confirm the reputation
for candor, independence and resolution TO
which he owed his nomination. He saw clearly
that thc only course WHICH Hc was "HI"S ~
pursue-namely, to be himself and nothing else
was the only course which il was wise 10 pur-
sue 1t did not compOrt with his character 10
stay IN retirement and leave the people TO as
sumo, if they would. that he was the sort OF
man they supposed him TO be, with strong
probability that they would conclude they had
been mistaken. Ee resolved to obey his natu-
raj impulse, TO traverse every part of the state,
10 speak his mind on every issue and receive
in person every attack. 1t is proof of MI
Odels sagacty and good faith that he not only
asscnted to an arrangement which he might not
have been able TO prevent. though he could have
hampered it, but gave il his hearty approva,
and unweared support To Colonel RooSevets s
honest and courageous performance OF the OBJ
legation which he clearly recognized from the
moment of his nomination the victory In which
the State rejoices is chiefly due.
