The seating by the Republican

Flag Day at Alexandria.

An Alexandria, (Minn.,) cores
pondent says:
In 1899 Captain George A. Freud
eureich, a former citizen of this vii
lage, died in Bavaria, bequeathing
forty acres Of land in the village, the
tract to be sold and the proceeds used
in purchasing a flag staff and flag and
maintaining them.
AS the result of this beouest. a
handsome steel flag staff, standing 125
feet high, was erected last week. Yes
terday being flag day, appropriate ex.
ercises were held, the flag being raised
on the new staff for the first time.
Colonel G. B. Ward made an address
presenting the staff and flag to the vii.
lage, and Constant Larson, village at
torney, accepted the gift. Addresses
were also made by Senator Knute
Nelson and State Superintendent J.
w. Olson. A large chorus of school
children sang "The Star Spangled
Banner" and America the Park
Region band also playing several Sc
lections. Fully 1000 persons were
present.

The He'll Gate catastrophe in which
the large excursion steamer General
Slocum' burned with a loss from
burning and drowning of about a
thousand persons, mostly women and
children, was one of the worst disast-
ers on inland waters in the history of
the country. The story of the awful
occurrence is sickening and heart
rending. An attempt will be made to
fix the blame, but this can never re-
store life and re-unite broken families.
It was one of those awful events that
happens about every so often. Great
calamities were ever part of the
worlds history and will ever continue
to be. Avoid over-crowded cars, over
crowded boats, over-crowded eleva-
tors, over-crowded public buildings
and all those places where death is
often lurking and avoid having your
name on the death list.

Nomination and Election.

Early in the campaign for choice of
candidates for governor, months ago,
the Enterprise expressed itself in ia
svor of Robert G. Dunn of Princeton.
Mr.. Dunn's excellent record as State
auditor commended itself to US, and
as well, his rugged: hearty. whole
souled way of meeting you, made us
like him personally. We still believe
that if he should be the nominee of the
convention, that he would prove an
exceptionally popular candidate as he
has those very human qualities that
the people like. When elected, we be-
Ilieve that he would make as good a
business governor as the State ever
had. Moreover, we look both for his
nomination and election.-Park Rap

governor that it sounded about like a

The people have been the spectators

The people have been the spectators
and listeners for many long months,
while the participants in the present
gubernatorial contest have been ac-
lively engaged in a campaign that
will 60 down in the States history as
one OF the most bitter that was ever
waged, but the long battle in the pub
lie arena is almost over, and begin
ming this week the people will become
the participants and with the agency
of the primary election they will choose
representatives who will in the State
convention decide on a standard
bearer for the Republican party for
the coming campaign. Candidates
can propose, but the people dispose.
With every assurance of unanimity
and harmony and after repeated re-
quests from prominent Republicans
throughout the State r. G. Dunn an
nounced himself as candidate for
the nomination for governor, and his
presence in the field for this honor
provoked and aroused the anger of
the hydra-headed animal known as
the State house crowd. Desire for
greed and gain and to further stand
before the amphitheatre of the com
monwealth to ape the customs of the
star political vaudeville artists, was
paramount to protested friendship and
loyalty. The test Of the friendship
came and the division line has been
one that could be seen with the naked
eye from the Big Fork to Rock river,
but while it has been the firing line
during the present campaign it ought
to be obliterated after the last day of
this month. All the influence, pres
tige and power Of the administration
has been used, and lavish sums of
money from interests that fear a
change in public policy have been
set to the credit of the opposition for
the purpose OF defeating Princeton's
candidate for governor. A heretofore
unchallenged and unattached record
has been juggled by the lingo juggler
Of the administration. The mountain
has groaned and 10, and behold, a
measly little mouse appeared, and
the stampede of sentiment failed to
start. Personal abuse and villifca-
ton were resorted to, but this has
failed to put the Princeton candidate
out of the running. He will be on the
list at convention time for roll call
for governor and Princeton expects to,
do a little celebrating a short time
afterwards. ss

Something to Remember.

When sizing up and choosing your
candidate for governor, the voter
should take into consideration the fact
that L. w. Collins gave up one of the
best offices in the State for the purpose
Of becoming governor. It may also be
remembered that j. j. Hill put up
many thousand dollars to elect Col
Inns to the bench and his workers are
only kicking because Hill refused to
put up $4,000 to help Collins in this
campaign.-Grey Eagle Gazette.
