The candidates campaign song, "I'd
Leave My Happy Home for You," is
especially fetching as sung by the re-
publican campaign quartette, Attorney
Price, +. J. Hodgins, Knute Norgard
and H. D. Parsons.
The euphonious name, "Ole,' in about
every other editorial item of the Milton
Globe last week would indicate that
there will be some ginger in the cam
paign down that way since the Globe
editor and the senatorial candidates have
all taken the threshing machines out of
them grain fields and started in to pound
out the crop of politics. Ginger up boys.

Aleck Mckenzie the national COM
mitteeman from North Dakota, and big
political boss is taking hand in cam
paign matters at republican headqu
ters at Fargo. 1t is not likely though
that he is saying word of his exper-
fences of year ago, while serving a
term in the state penitentiary of Califor-
MIA for the part he played in the Cape
Nome mining hold up. Since set at
liberty he is reported as both looking
and feeling better,

The selection of Joseph A. Elliot, a
merchant, postmaster and taxpayer at
the new town of Northfeld, in Ramsey
county, as a Legislative candidate on the
republican ticket in this county, from
the Eighteenth district, is one of the
"hot-stuf" incidents in the makeup of
that ticket this fall. They either found
a dearth of available political timber
within their party lines, or give the
limits of the Eighteenth legislative dis
trict: an elasticity that is likely to carry
it's boundaries into kingdom come.

We would call the attention of office
candidates, irrespective of party, to the
fact Colonel Sam Prescott, ex-janitor at
the court house has hung out his sign as
politician of the free-lance order.
There's nothing in it for Sam but much
needed recreation after too close con-
fnement to his official duties the past
year. The ex-janitor carries too much
avoirdupois to make very active cam
pagn, but has ann ounced himself as
being on the outside of the political
breastworks as we'll as the courthouse.

Strife in the republican ranks has
reached stage where more than one of
the old warehouses; have decided to wash
their hands of the whole affair. One of
the veteran party men, who has been in
the thick of the fighting for at least ten
years, in speaking of the ticket as lined
up this year said the other day while in
town. "This is too much for me, am
thankful that the men whom / have
tried to advise have refused to listen to
me- l can sit on the fence and watch
the party go down to defeat" The man
is republican of state prominence
and until the differences of the past two
years took the position of leader in the
south-end of the county. He made no
attempt to veil his hostility to the re
publican state senate candidate in tho
Fortieth district and is frankly indf
fcrcnt to the intcrcstsof the entire rcpub-
licnn ticket, SO far as county matters go

The Osnabrock Independent seems to
have lost about half of its republican

To the campaign orator: Remember
the tongue is an unruly member-don't
talk too much. The speakers billed here
from now until the polls close can take
this little bit of free advice to heart with
advantage.

This is an off year in politics. Yes.
Ahem, it will be "otf'' with a big O for
our opposition party aspirants on the
county and legislative tickets. 1t is
hardly necessary to call attention to the
fact that its all off with all Of them.

OF course it's waste of time and space

is a matter of national Importance.

This fine Indian summer weather

Chas. Chisholm to quit hunting votes

lie when the honkers are passing over.

No need for our republican friends to
worry because the democrats are back
ward in the holding public meetings,
hiring brass bands and whooping things
up generally the same as they are do
ing. The question is how to get the vote
out. The people have made up their
minds how they are going to vote and
with full democratic vote we can elect
the whole ticket without running a
headquarters as a side show.

EATING TIME ON CAT rARs.
Dietary Table of an Up-to-Date Feline
Boarding House.

6oarulng House.
The care of cats of absent mis-
tresses and of those which are raised
for sale has become a matter COM
manding great attention, and in its
up-to-date features is sufficiently
amusing. The dietary timetable and
daily routine on one of these modern
cat farms is described as follows:
At $3.50 the cats have saucerfuls Of
food, prepared as for a baby, and
gwen while warm at the consistency
OF cream. At 1890 they dine either
on well-boiled sleeps head, cut up
very fine, or by way of change they
have fish dinner. At 3 o'clock a
drink of warm milk is provided. At
p. m. they have fish and rice, or
biscuits soaked in milk Clean boiled
they are emphatic about the boil
ing"water is always kept on hand,
as cats suffer from thirst more than
is generally realizei.
A wh-se cat should lie cleaned ex-
actly as you would clean the fashion
able white neck fur. The hand of the
cleaner should be dampened, not wet,
In some water in which a few drops
OF ammonia have been poured. The
cat should then be stroked 1t should
then be sprinkled generously with
flour, which must be rubbed well into
the fur. This must then be thorough
ly brushed out, and the coat polished
with a silk handkerchief This cere-
mony should be rarely INDUCED in.
as a healthy cat will keep itself clean
in clean surroundings. The cats at
the farm in question realize prices
which frequently run into three fig
ures, so the care bestowed on them
is not altogether unreasonable.
