POLITICS OF THE STATE.


Lieut.. Gov. Lyndon A. Smith of Men
tevideo, has managed to break into the
list of Republican congressional candi-
dates in the new Seventh district. He
owes his announcement to the Chippewa
County Herald. Speaked Bowling, State
Senator Ed Young and Congressman
Eddy are the leading candidates, and it
is doubtful if Mr.. Smiths boom develops
any positive strength.
Gov Van SAINT has very adroitly
drawn the sting from the pen of the
editor of the Fairmont News. Mf. Ever
EFT has been appointed deputy oil inspec-
tor for Jackson and Martin counties, and
the Weekly Bulletin of Defense will here
after be treated with that consideration
which it deserves at the hands of those
who have partaken of the flesh pots at
the disposal of the administration Thus
another lame duck is provided for. From
a cursory glance we are inclined to think
that there are so many singing pens
in Minnesota that the governor will hard
ly have places enough TO draw the string
from all of them.
''rhe above clipping from the North
field News, Republican paper edited by
Congressman Heatwole, is an indication
of what is in store for Van SAINT in the
future Many of the leading Republicans
are not proud of the record the governor
is making ''-Perham Enterprise.
During the past two weeks 200 Repub-
lean editors have met Gov. Van SAINT
between the Merchants and the capitol

State Senator H. F. Barker. of Cam

Among the Ciarendon's arrivals yes

possessed of a considerable estate. Like
his fellow natives he believes the In

cut and that which They still want to
appropriate is a just one and based upon
inherent rights, but to this matter his
mind is not at present directed. He evil

The pupils of the Visitation convent
gave their annual recital last evening in
the assembly hall of the convent. The
hall was filled with the parents and
friends of the students, and the excellent
programme revealed the proficiency the
pupils have attained in music, elocution
and physical culture. The stage was at
tractively decorated with cut flowers and
palms. Pretty hangings and rugs gave 1t
a cosy appearance and made an adm1ra-
bic background for daintily clad and self
possessed young girls, who took part in
the programme. The Misses Watrer,
Kennedy, Moore and Macdonald played
the 'TannhauSer march for an opening
number and their brilliant rendition OF
it was warmly applauded. The Misses
Galbraith and Hook played a duet, Pas
