hts action he merely said that he changed
his mind because the president wanted
him to. The people of the s xth district
want a man who acts according to what
he himself believes and not according to
what somebody else with a rubber back
bone thinks and demands. For this
reason they will vote for Henry Truelsen,
says the Stearrs county man,
There has been some talk of Senator
Baldwin creating a faction against TrlIel-
son because of their contest for the nom
ina ton. There is absolutely no truth fl
such statement. Senator Baldwin and
every Democrat in Duluth are heartily in
favor of Truelsen and the senator will
this week take the stump for the ex-
mayor. There is perfect harmony among
the Democrats i'll the district ami it Is
mere sham to talk Of Morris having
walk-over as has been said by some blind
Republicans. He stands little If any
show of being elected and his friends
know it.
AS popular as Charles A. Towne is in
the district it must be admitted that
there is a certain Democratic constitu-
ency in Stearns county that Mr.. Towne
could not carry at the last election.
This same number OF voters will vote for
Mr.. Truelsen and not for Mr.. Morris, and
they represent nee only a large number
of votes within themselves, but have
great deal of good influence in the coun-
ty and district These facts are known
to every well informed voter in Stearns
county, whether he be a Democrat or Re
publican and It is not unknown outside
of the county. No one is better aware Of
the fact than Morris himself
1t is said that Manager Wilcutts, of the
Morris campaign, has found it difficult 10
get funds with which to carry on the eff
fort of pulling Page through the n,ire,
but the belief is general throughout tha
district that the shortage will be iii votes,
not money
Prof. c. A. Swenssqn, Of Kansas,
Thursday night addressed a Republican
meeting at the Lyceum theater, and there
was an unusual incident in connection
with his address 1t had been heralded
in the Republican papers that Mr. Swens-
son was going to tear up Gov. Lind.
Mr.. Swensson took occasion to deny any
such intention, and in words that We're
full of sincerity he expressed the highest
opinion of Gov Lind, with whom he has
a close acquaintancesbip. He did express
regret that the governor did not agree
with him in poltics. AS he concluded
his remarks concerning the governor he
was greeted with wild cheers.
