State Democratic Politics

Nampa Leader, Dem:
Although it is some months un-
til nominations will be made for
the various state offices there is al
ready considerable talk in political
circles. 1t is generally conceded
that all the present state officials
Will be candidates for reelection at
the democratic convention with the
exception of Chief Justice Quarles
who has advised his friends that he
Will not be a candidate, but expects
to engage in the practice of the law
in Boise. 1t is understood thai

senator State Auditor Jones b,
aligning himself with the middle
of-the-rcad populists has removed
himself from the list of eligible can
didates for denomination at the
hands Of democracy.
The announced candidacy of Hon.
James II. Hawley for United States
senator receives only words Of com
mendation. Mr.. Hawlev j an
Acknowledged leader of the Idaho
bar, is an eloquent speaker, tire
less worker and a democrat of un-
questioned party standing Mr..
Hawley has not announced his po-
sition regarding the nomination for
senator in convention, but it is the
concensuS of democratic opinion
that no nomination should be made
thus leaving the field an open and
fair one for all favorite sons.
Former Lieutenant-Governor Jos.
H. Hutchinson and d. l.. Evans of
Oneida county are mentioned as
good congressional timber. The
announced candidacy OF Avery c..
Moore is not generally considered
as serious.
Charles H. Jackson is an open
and avowed candidate for governor
and is laying his wires with con-
summate skill. Attorney General
Martin has many friends in all
parts of the state who would be
pleased if he would permit his
nsme to be considered for 'guber
national honors. Governor Hunt
is confident of denomination. Ii
this connection there is persistent
reiteration of the statement thai
United States Senator HeitfelC
would not be averse to serving the
people as governor.

The following is a list of the plays
that are booked to appear at the Audi.
torium at Franklin during the coming
season; Murray & Mack, Human Hearts,
A Runaway Match, Georgia Minstrels.
Mr.. Edwin Felix in Rip Van Winkle, A
Wise Woman, Prince of Liars. the Dia-
mond King. Hans Hanson, Tolsen-M Miller,
Dickman Stock Co., McDonald-Scott Co.,
Hoyt's Comedy Co., The Wise Member,
Pete Baker in Chris & Lena, Mahara's 8
Minstrels, Sam T. Jacks Big Burlesquers
and w. B. Patton in The Minister 8 Son.
The managers Of the Opera House tells
US that they have gone to no little trou.
BILE in their endeavor to secure good
plays for the coming season; but have
experienced considerable difficulty in
their efforts to do SO due to the fact that
Franklin has "black eye" in theatrical
circles for the reasons: 1st. That there
are not enough theatre.going people to
justify first class play in coming here,
and the greater part of the better com.
panies that haye played franklin in the
past now refuse to appear here without
a guarantee. End. That the stage &C.
commodations have been totally inade-
quate for staging a production Of any
pretensions at all, while the dressing
rooms we're altogether too few in mum.
Der. very small in size and poorly equip.
ped in the matter of lighting and with
facilities for the toilet.
When the present managers took
charge of the Opera House it was agreed
between them and the owners of the
building that a fixed sum should be
spent by them (the managers) for im-
proving the stage accommodations, and
under the direction of Mr.. G. w. Abel,
who thoroughly understands how to
make things attractive and convenient.
the stage now possesses all the cOnveni-
ences and comforts that . stage Of its
size can be made to afford.
This being done, it now remains with
the people of franklin and vicinity to
remove the first trouble. It 10 idle to talk
about getting high class plays here un-
less the door receipts warrant it, and the
managers tell US that they have refused
to book number of farce comedies this
season and have selected the best that
was offered, and that if their efforts are
they will still have better
plays next season even if they have to
guarantee fixed sum to get them. But,
on the contrary, if the people do not CO.
operate with them in building up and
a patronage for that class
of amusements, it will be about the fin
ish of Franklin's theatrical career a.
everything in a social way that fail in .

everything that succeeds carries with it
tone of prosperity that is bound to have
its good effect.

The carpenters have finished their
work on the new railroad passenger
depot and are now busy altering and
repairing the old depot which will
hereafter be the freight department;
a neat Office is also being added.
The painters arrived last Monday
and are now busy painting and de.
corating the new building. Mr.. W.
T. Bush, the affable and obIiging
agent, expects to move in his new
quarters in about ten days which will
be great relief as the continuous
increasing traffic at this point has
caused demand for more room.
The people of Franklin are justly
proud of the new depot and from

Franklin viii Have a Kindergarten.

It is indeed gratifying to state that
contributions towards the kindergarten
fund continue to come in from our citi-
zens and friends of education. We are
rejoice to see that the majority of our
citizens realize the need of such an in-
stitution in our midst, and are not only
willing to give their mite towards sus.
tanning kindergarten ID Franklin, but
some are giving their time and encourage.
ment to the project on the part of the
BANNER. There is some people in every
community who oppose public enter
prises, who kick on anything that they
do not originate themselves, and it would
be strange indeed if Franklin did not
have some kickers. They are here but
on this question we are glad to say they
are overwhelmingly in the minority, and
we trust some day they will repent Of
their ways and get in the wagon of pro-
gress or Ego way back and sit down.
We have received over 500 in contribu.
tions since our last issue and the Kinder
gartcn is assured for Franklin this year,
and will be under the able management
of Miss Waldo, who so successfully man.
aged the kindergarten here last year.
The subscriptions so far received are as

CRITICISM OF THE KING.

King Edward recently visited An
drew Carnegie at Skibo castle and the
London newspapers proceeded to haul
his majesty over the Goals in Wat
tersopian style. The Evening Star is
q sample OF the criticism dealt out
to the king and shows that in old
England the press is as free if not
more so than in America.
$50 his majesty the king has been
to see Mr.. Carnegie. The little in
cident is not without its attractive
ness, though perhaps it is as interest
ing as the recent hobnobbings of Pier
pont Morgan with the royalties of
Europe. They all run after Mr.. Nor
gan, without distinction as to age,
prestige, dignity or anything else.
"We do not know that there is any
cause for complaint in all this. 1t
is only belated recognition of what
we knew years ago, namely, that the
real kings of today are not the men on
the thrones, but the millionaires of
the stock markets. -

and nothing in the result
that should make any Republican sore
or regretful.
The Democrats had no opposition for
any Of the Offices, and no nominations
for several, which fact accounts for
very light vote from the adherents of
that organization. In fact there was
nothing in the situation to bring them
to the polls. On the Republican side
there was sharp contest for sheriff.
register of deeds, county attorney and
legislative representatives. While the
Republican vote cast is probably not
over sixty per cent of the total vote of
the city and county, it is still much
in excess of the total vote usually cast
under the old caucus system. and a
much more satisfactory expression OF
the wishes of the voters has resulted.
1t is not improbable that an effort
will be made to amend or destroy the
new law at the coming session of the
legislature. 1t is possible that it
might be amended in some particu-
lars, but that it should be repealed
will be strenuously objected to by a
very large proportion of the voting
population.
The primary election law has come
| to stay, and in its retention the peo-
pie will henceforth be privileged to
vote for candidates of their choice
without fear of barter or trade

MankatO Free Press
PUBLISHED BY
FREE PRESS PRINTING co /.
EVERY FRIDAY.
One Dollar per Year in Advance
(S1.5O if not paid in advance)
LET 1T BE DONE.

The Free Press endorses the senti-
ments expressed by The Review in
regard to bringing the Blue Earth
county fair to Msnkato. While this
paper does net wish to cast stone in
the way of that bustling little village
of Garden City yet it does believe,
like The Review, that the interests of
the people of the county should be
consulted. With the fair held at Man.
kato each year the exhibition could be
made more successful and larger num-
bers of people would attend. The fair
would have prestige unequaled by
any fair in southern or central Mime
sofa and the Blue Earth County Agri-
cultural society would be better off for
the change The Burmister grounds
adjacent to Sibley park could be fitted
up in magnificent style and could
be arranged into an ideal place for
the holding of county fair.
By all means the people of Mankato
should get together on this PROPOSE
ton, which, although it is not new
one, having been advocated by The
Free Press time and time again,
would prove, of not only great benefit
to Mankato but to the residents of
Blue Earth county as we'll.
The Free Press not great many
months ago advanced the practical
idea that a Blue Earth county fair
could be made representative ex-
position for central and southern
Minnesota and not only bring to this
city people from our own county. but
those from q distance.
The people should act ON this
matter.

Y. NJ. G. A. COURSE.

Secretary Gran of the Young Men 8
Christian Association has given out to
the press the lecture course for this
season. The makeup of the course
promises to give to patrons fine class
of entertainments. They are both Of
an entertaining and instructive
character and should be given hearty
reception on the part Of the Mankato
public.
The Young Mems Christian Associ-
alton is entitled to full measure of
support and the lecture course is got
ten up for the purpose of deriving
money for its benefit. By this means
the public is getting in return for its
money value received and the organi-
cation is not placed on level with a
charitable institution.
The Young Mems Christian Associ-
alton is a necessary institution. 1t
has been and will continue to be the
means of accomplishing great deal
of good for the young men. The
Young Mems Christian Association
does not claim to be organized for the
purpose of redeeming young men but
it does stand in the way of pitfalls
and succeeds in keeping many young
men in that excellent moral condition
from which they do not have to be re-
deemed.
By patronizing the lecture course
you will render great assistance to
an organization that is entitled to the
support of all good people.
