Haynes Notsa Candidate for Attorney
General.
nesota will be held June 16, and then will
come the test between the Hearst and
Parker supporters. AS there are two
months and half to work up sentiment
and organization, the Parker supporters
say it is. too early to do anything. They
have no organizations in this county, and
may not form any, but a prominent Par
ker man said to-day that he had talked
with great many democrats, and those
he met We're three to one against Hearst.
He had no doubt that this county would
return an anti-Hearst delegation. John
Lind will come back next week for a day
or so and look over the ground His sym
pathies are. known to be against Hearst.
and he will furnish a rallying ground for
1.-the Parker men, and practically start
their campaign. His personal influence
will be a big factor in the contest, both
in this county and outside. III.
The old-line democrats of the sixth dis
trict have poser for the Hearst hustlers.
They have brought out as candidate for
district delegate Frank Zins Of st. Cloud,
publisher of an influential German paper
and very strong with all democrats of
German descent. He is pretty sure to get
J. r. Bennett, and with that backing it
| will be hard to defeat him in the district
convention. He is decidedly opposed to
Hearst.
Since Governor Van SAINT quit running
for office he has risen considerably in the
estimation of the 'antis," who used to
spend all their waking hours in revilins
him and plotted against him in their
dreams. The Dunn press bureau is fur
nishing its string Of papers with cartoons
| as we'll as editorials. These cartoons de.
pict Judge Collins in a most unfavorable
| light, but Governor Van SAINT is exalted
by contrast into the likeness Of states
man. Judge Collins will have no com
plant to make If he passes thru thu
same experience as the governor, who al
| ways seemed to stand abuse pretty we'll.
The Osakis Review scored quite a scoo]
on the rest of US, saying in its issue O
Thursday:
| Bob Dunn has recently returned from
a trip south, where he has been to res
up and get in shape for the strenuou
work Of the campaign. On his return t

reports from all sections Of the state tina
were received during his absence" r.
the Review man was a little early wit
Bob's home coming, as he has not arrive
yet, but the; encouraging reports" mus
be about three months old.
Strong Collins sentiment has come t
the surface in SGoodhue county, and it
reported that practically every precine
> outside of Red Wing will send Collin
delegates to the county convention. I
the city the Dunn men have q stron
