OUR LEGISLATIVE CANDIDATES.
Mccollom and Berg Make Strong
Team and Will be Elected.
For members Of the legislature
from the 63rd legislative district,
comprising the counties Of Marshall,
Kittson and Roseau, the republicans
present two exceptio onally strong
candidates, Hon. C. ] !. McC ollom, OF
;Hallock, and Secretary Of State, al
bert Berg, OF Warroad Roseau Go.
Mr.. McCollom served the people
faithfully and well in the last legiss
lature. Among the bills intro oduced
by him are the following A bill re-
quiring county superintendent to
have educational qualifca ations A
bill regulating the business OF hail
insurance companies, restricting ex-
penses and salaries of officers, and
placing other safe guards for thepro
lection Of policy holders. A bill com
pelling railway companies to build
and maintain loading platform for
farmers toload grain and produce
into cars A bill estab ablishing the
Board OF Appeals on the inspection
ol grain, a very important measure
for farmers. Many other measures
Of interst to this district received his
earnest attention. With such q
record made in his first term, he is.
certainly entitled to a rejection:
What have the democratic on pop
ulist Legislators that we have sent
down from time to time ever accom-
ished for the benefit Of the district?
None whatever, that we can think
OF. Surely, the people can not fail to
appreciate faithful service in their be-
half.
Hon. Albert Berg, secretary OF state,
is the other candidate for the legis-
lature, who by reason of his ability,
experience, and large acquaintance in
the state will be able to render the
people Of this district very good
service. N. J. Daily, the democratic
candidate for congress lied about
Mr.. Berg, when he said he lived in ST.
Paul Mr. Berg has q homestead at
Warroad, Roseau co has built.
himself q house costing between two
and three thousand dollars, and made
other extensive improvements, and
has his family there and his home
there. He is as much a resident Of
the district as any other homestead
er. Because he, in the discharge Of
his duties as secretary Of state, has
had to spend OF most his time in ST.
Paul, does not by any means make
that place his reside Mr.. Berg
has come among us to stay, and we
will be glad to get more such citizens.
He is the unanimo GUS choice Of Roseau
county for the legislature, the pop
ulists and democrats in said county
having been unable to even find q
man to run against him. As secre-
.tary of state and member Of the
drainage commission he had a great
deal to do in planning and supervis-
ing the drainage work in the Red
River Valley, and he is thoroughly,
familiar with the needs Of these
three counties in that respect. We
could send down no better and more
influential man, or one who can do
us more good, in pushing through
legislation for our benefit IN this inn
portant matter. The editor Of the
SHEAF is an old friend and school
mate Of Mr.. Berg's from college days.,
and knowing him as intimately as
we do, we can say that there is not q
dishonest feature iin the makeup Of
Albert Berg He can be relied upon
to do his duty, and his whole duty, to
the people without fear or favor.
A vote for McC Conom and Berg is
avote for the best interests Of this
district.
