formed but presume he was on his
way to Murray county to look up
supposed damage done to his polite
al fences by those Murray county
newspapers. 1t is quite evident that
our neighboring county wants both
senator and representative, but they
will find hard proportion to tackle
when they attempt to run in man
that will defeat Dan if he goes out
after a reelection as senator from
this district. -Dundee Advocate.

The State Senatorhip is beginning
to take on little life will be seen
from the Slayton Gazette:
Senator Shell passed through here
last Monday on his way to Chippewa
county, where he is operating in
lands of late. When questioned as
to his candidacy for the senate he
said he had not yet fully decided
whether to run or not. He is wait
ing to see what Murray county is 60
ing to do in the way of putting up
a candidate. 1t has been up to
Murray county for some time, and
if she is going to get the next state
senator some enterprising man
ought to announce himself for the
position.
There is no corner on beef.
When it is worth from to- cents
on the hoof, it costs from II to IL
cents on the hook, and that means
that the best cuts must be sold at 20
cents to show any profit. The country
butchers, who buys of the farmers
and slaughers his own beef, as many
Of them do, finds that the farmer
knows all about prices and nothing
about trust. 1t is popular notion
to charge high prices of whatever
nature to trust and combines. Why
not apply it to corn, which is
worth today about as much as
wheat, or to hay, when it touches
SIS a ton. Everybody knows that
short crops produce these prices and
a lille common sense would apply
the same principle to beef and meats

Lismore Leader: What's the
matter with passing the state sena-
torial toga around and not let one
man have the honor continuously?
If we are to do this, what's to inter-
fere with placing it upon the should
ers of County Attorney Crandall ?
We make the nomination-who will
sercond the motion? After that is
done we will call for remarks.
If it was not for Mr.. Shell, almost
anyone would second the nomina-
ton, but, Mr. Shell, friends would
not depose him if he desired another
term while. they all realize that Mr..
Crandall would be a very able man
in the senate and serve his constitu-
ents and state with fidelity. AS to
Mr.. Shells candidacy in passing
remark, he said. IF the people
want me I am willing to take tho
Office again and if they want some
one else all right, just as they feel
about it. Have not talked with any
one about it aud don't know who
thew want.' and here the matter
stands.
If candidate hires team he pays
for it; if he engages a hall he pays
for that, but it frequently happens
that the paper which gives him the
most public notice gets absolutely
nothing. This is not fair deal and
the Review is in favor of following
the lead of the papers in the neigh
boring counties not SO much be-
cause of the financial benefits but
because it is the business of news
papers to give all men an equal rep
resentation, and when all buy their
space and pay for it there can be no
complaint Politics has ruined more
PAPERS than it everv made, espec
iallv where it is bitterly partisan,
and the remedy lies only in scheme
whereby each candidate is given
rights equal with the others. New
