Judge Elliott for reelection because
he decided in it's favor in the case of
the Minneapolis Trust Company
against that paper for libel. If he
ruled In favor of the Trust Company
the Times would not eulogize him SO
highly. A judge is supposed to act
impartlally in any case that comes
before him and deserves neither praise
nor censure in the honest discharge
of his duties on the bench. The other
judges would have acted likewise.
Harry A. Lund is making record
breaking run for alderman in. the Sixth

Democrats who know the principles
of Democracy and have the ability to
carry them into effect, and certainly
the city council needs good men more
than most departments. Harry Lund's
nomination will be equivalent to
rOusing election.
