REGARDING COM1ANDAN
Minneapolis Journal Writer Thinks There
Won't Be a Change.

q b Cheney the Well-known
political writer on the Minneapolis
Journal has the following on the
struggle for commandant Of the
Soldiers Home il the issue Of the
Journal Of last Thursday
1.-The trustees of the Minnesota S
Soldiers Home will hold their an
nual meeting Aug. 10 The board
is now Repu blican and some changes
will doubtless be made in the staff
of the Home.
Gov VanSant, being an old sol
|dler, was expected to Interfere per-
sonaIly il the selection Of officials at
the home, He has gone on record
to the contrary, however He has
informed members of the board that
so far as he is personally concerned,
they will be left absolutely untram-
meled. He takes it for granted that
the seven veterans now on the
81 ffe
board are capable Of looking after
the best interests ofthe Home, and
as a majority are Republicans, that
party interests will be properly
looked after.
This means, u all probability,
that Commandant Compton will be
retained for another year at least.
W..P. Huntington Of Red Wood Falls,
a=charter member. Of the board, is a
candidate for the place and has
claims to consid eration 1t does
not seem to be a good year for "a
new man. however Major Comp
ton is just serving out his first year
and has given excellent satisfaction.
He is especially popular among the
old soldiers at the institution. As
far as politics go he IS a Lind APP
pointee, but has never sWerved
from allegiance to the Republican
party Its understood that the
majority Of the board, taking all
these things into consideration, will
elect Major Compton for another
year. George n. Lamphere, secre-
tary Of the board. will probably get
the same treatment. He is a Popu-
list, but was only elected last sum
mer, and will hardly be cut off with
one year S service.
The only change made two years
ago, when the board first came un-
der fusion control, were the election
Of Frank Mead as adjutant, Fred
Straub as quartermaster. and DR..
Pine as surgeon. Whatever changes
the board makes will probably be
from these offices, but even these
three may not be ousted All have
Republican friends who are work
ing for their retention n Office. s

UP-TO.DATE IDEAS.

The merchant who wakes up
and pays more attention to his
newspaper advertising is the one
who is going to win in the end.
There is no use bemoaning this fact
or that To declaim against fate,
no matter what way that fate
touches him, will not help the con-
ditions of trade in the least if he
still makes use of the old style of
useless, "help>the>paper" advertis-
ing. On the other hand, that mer>
chant who jumps in the swim, as
the boys say, and begins to tell the
people why he is in business will
get his share of the increased trade
that comes to all who advertise

OUR ANNIVERSARY.

Tomorrow, November the Goth,
The Sentinel will have passed its
eighth mile stone and entered upon
its ninth year OF existence.
The recurring birthdays of The
Sentinel are not permitted to pass
over without something being said
of the occasion, this being due to
the circumstances under which the
paper started its life.
Eight years ago when the first
issue of the paper appeared its ene'
mics, and it had not few at that
time, predicted its early collapse
Powerful interests worked against
its success and everything was
done, which it was possible to do
by those interested in its downfall,
to make their predictions of its
failure come TO pass. That it has
continued to exist and prosper un-
der one management since its birth
is not due TO anything which those
people LETT undone, but because the
paper was established on a firm
footing which has ever since been
maintained, due to the favor of the
people and the many subscribers
who have been answering patrons
since the beginning
Whatever else The Sentinel can
say Of itself, the fact will not be de-
MED by even its enemies that it has
been committed to the policy at all
times OF saying things which would
be contributive to the city's good.
1t always has and always will en-
deavor to be factor for the up
building of the city.
Its business affairs have, never
been upheld by any political pats
ronage OF the city or county and
anv success which it may have had

Quite a number of the switchmen OF
this city, who went out during the re-
cent strike, have already seen the i'm
probability OF their getting back into the
employ of the Denver & Rio Grande rail-
road, and have gone elsewhere to look
for situations.
The daily sentinel., 1901-11-19

has come from its being conducted
on a strictly business basis and be-
cause the merchants Of the city,
since the day OF its first issue have
regarded it as the best advertising
medium.
The paper or its proprietors have
no promises to make for its future.
There are things now in contempla.
ton which should vastly increase
its influence and use but until those
plans are worked out no promises
will be made
This occasion is taken to thank
our advertisers for their very libera
patronage and also to thank our
large list of subscribers, several
hundred of whom have been on its
subscription list since the first issue.
