Favors drindeland and Lofgren.
IDUN, p. O. MARSHALL Co. MINI.

June 5, 1902.
Editor Warren SHEAF:
| notice that the people Of War
rem had a great demonstration in
honor Of Mr.. Grindeland, endors-
ing his candidacy for congress from
the Ninth district. Such action as
that is very good sign OF a clean
character, because there is nobody
who knows a man any better than
his nearest neighbors. Now let
everyone in Marshall county do
likewise. Let us at least speak a
good word for Mr.. Grindeland, and
at the polls be sure to mark the bal
lots right.
But there is another question who
will be the successor to Mr.. Grinde-
land in the state senate. Let me
submit the name OF Peter Lofgren,
of Pelan. Mr.. Lofgren has been in
the mercantile business for a score
OF years, and has always beenlooked
upon as an honest, straightforward
and reliable man, who always had
the confidence OF the people; and
while he was a resident OF Stephen he
held many positions Of trust, and
always to the satisfaction Of the
people.
Mr.. Lofgren has always been a
hard worker and a hustler OF the
first rank, and if elected to the state
senate, he will be there in behalf OF
his constituents.
Yours truly
c. NJ. Carlson.

OF his colleagues.

WHEN a young man hasn't spunk
enough to work, and work hard, if
need be, he is not worthy the regard
OF true woman The trouble with
nine-tenths Of the marriages that
are unhappy because Of poverty, is,
the husband is lazy. Every young
woman should keep her eye on the
young man who is shining around
her, and see if he is lazy or not. No
woman Of spirit can possibly be
happy with a lazy man. The man
who makes his wife get up every
night with the baby whenit squeals
deserves a straight jacket. Look
out for the lazy old soak when he is
still soaklet.-Fergus Falls Free

FOLLOWING the lead OF Chairman
H. E. Ives, two members Of the
county committee-K. NJ. Hansen,
of this city, and j. L. Johnson, OF
st. Hilaire-have sent their resigna-
ton to the secretary Of the Populist
county committee. The secretary
will have to resign before long or he
will be the whole committee. -Ihlef

WITH the practically solid backing
OF the great county Of Marshall and
strong friends and supporters
among the people in all the other
counties, the nomination and cleo
ton Of Andrew Grindeland as con-
gresham from the new ninth dis
trict is certain. No better or safer
man can be chosen for this high
trust. He will make a useful and
practical legislator and will from
the start command the respect and
confidence OF his colleagues.

OD1N Halden, of Duluth is making
a spirited canvass for the state audi
torship. AS county auditor OF St.
Louis county he took a bold stand
for the taxation of the iron mines, and 20
if nominated and elected state audi
tor would doubtless discharge the
duties of that office with the same
high regard for the peoples best
interests.

SECRETARY Roor's order to reduce
the size of the army to 66,497 men
does not SAVIOR of millitarism. Such

extent, can never be menace to our

THERE has been a surprising revel-
alton of crookedness in the Mime
apolis police force, and even Mayor
Ames seems to be mixed up with IT..
When a man reaches the age OF Dr.
Ames, he ought to retire from poll
tics, especially if he can't run things
on a higher plane than he has done.

THE STATE CONVENTION.

Cor. to The Commonwealth.
There is no telling what will take
place in the State Convention 1t Green's
boro on July 18th. Under the gener-
al plan oil its organization all kinds OF
dem9crats--regular and irregular, the
old guard and the boiling. the appoint
ed delegate and the free pass delegate
Will have equal voices under the provi-
sion that call democrats who may at
tend ere to be regarded as delegates. !"
The purpose of the free-rass delegate
will be TO overthrow the expressed will
OF the people as it already has been
determined by certain element that
they Will either dictate the actions OF
that body Or bring about confusion, dis
order. ruin.
It is necessary that the people at
large be ready for any contingency
that may arise, and in the very great
concern we have as to the outcome of
the fight for Chief Justice, we seem to
lose sight OF an equally important mat
ter-the manner CT naming our U. S.
Senator. IN the name OF the people I
I ask that the Convention give us a
primary in order tina. the people may
name the man.
The people are the sovereign in this
country and to none other does kingly
power belong. In matters which
vitality concern the people their wishes
should be expressed and then be car
ried into effect. I believe in the doc
trine O: the referendum" and our
party is committed to this doctrine
both by declaration and precedent.
For the sake OF the perpetuity oil
the Democratic party we cannnt de-
ls:sests fru.sa bis doctrine, a,.d T! there
fore ask the State Convention TO give
us a primary throughout the State, at
which primary the people can say
whom they will have the Legislature
to elect as U. s. Senator.
We must have a primary for thi:
purpose, and to this end / shall use my
utmost endeavor. Will all who agree
with ne join 10 with me in such a de
mand? Let every man in North Car
0lina (tro,n the raountains to the sea,
