MINNESOTA POLITICS

. It is reported that Judge Marshall A.
Spooner OF Benidji, Governor Van SAINTS
appointee in the fifteenth judicial district,
will have opposition next year when he
comes up for election, and that his oppo-
ment will be the same man who contested
with him for the appointment, c.. C. Nc
Carthy of Grand Rapids, former state SEN
ator. Senator Mccarthy feels that he did
not make the hustle for the place that
Judge Spooner did, and that if he exerts
himself he can take the nomination at the
primaries.
Judge Grindeland, the new man in the
fourteenth; district, also has to stand for
election, but so far no. one has been men
toned as candidate against him.
Crookston would have hard work to unite
on a man and Judge Grindeland has a
strong following in each county of that
district, which practically assures him Of
the nomination. $50 =

mission resigned yesterday. as the Jour-
nal announced. but the designations have

continue to serve. The new game law

office. but they would continue to serve
anyway until their successors were ap-

bill will give the dairy and food depart
ment funds for additional deputies, and

commission was especially in need of ar
increase on account of the additional la,

Muddy Crossings.

The condition of the crossings at the
intersection of Cameron and Fayette
streets during the present inclement
weather is loudly complained of by peo-
pie whose business takes them to the
neighborhood of the local street depot.
The crossings are covered with mud,
and passengers who arrive here on the
trains, especially in the night, are
obliged TO tramp through the mire in
going toward any point of the compass.
Fayette street north Of Cameron has al
ways been quagmire in rainy weather.
Several years ago the city authorities
had part of the mud bank on the west
side of The street between Cameron and
Queen removed. This procedure never
improved conditions, but if anything,
made them worse. The east side is no
longer a thoroughtare by reason of the
railway station and tracks. The west
side, it is thought, should have been i'm
proved quarter of a century ago.

the present extension is preliminary to
the gradual paralleling of the entire
lire. As heretofore stated, the work OF
preparing for double track for the
Washiagton,Southern is in progress
short distance north of Richmond. The
increasing traffic of the road renders this

Circulars and Newspapers.

1t is noted that amateur advertisers
have spent large sums the past year
on elaborate circulars. AS The New
York Sun observes, comparatively few
of these reach the people they are in-
tended to influence and "almost in
variably they are tossed into the fire
unread" An advertisement in a repu-
table newspaper of large circulation is
seen by virtually everybody. This is
patent in the fact that experienced adj
vertisers rely mainly on the newspaper
for publicity. -Philadelphia Record.
