The LIE Sueur News, whose editor
is a third district postmaster and a
stanch follower of joel Heatwoie,
says: "A new politacal slogan is
that the nomination OF Bob Dunn
means the election of John Lind.
Well, most of us who are voters re-
member when Lind was governor,
and have a recollection of his elec-
ton to congress from the strong re-
publican county of Hennepin. If
the republicans of that county think
him good enough to represent them
in congress, republicans IN the rest
of the state might think him good
enough for governor a second time.
just what does this signify, any
way2 Does it mean that Lind might
be renominated for governor and
defeat Dunn if Dunn were candidate
against him?
The Verndale Sun editor last week
announced Collins as his choice for
governor and stated plainly that he
would oppose the nomination Of b is
old friend, Bob Dunn. He says by
way of explanation:
lit is with regret that this step is
taken. At the time Mr.. Dunn init
mated he would be a candidate,
some six months ago, the Sun had
no other thought than> supporting
him and in fact favorably mention
ed his name. Since that time, how
ever, the political complexion has
changed, and to our best knowledge
and belief the corporate interests
that attempted the defeat of Cover
nor Van SAINT two years ago are
again attempting to gain control of
politics and are earnestly urging the
selection of Mr.. Dunn as the repub-.
lican standard bearer Two years
ago the campaign was fought out
on the merger and antimerger lines.
Van SAINT as the antjmerger candi-
date was elected by one of the larg-
est majorities ever accorded candi-
date for governor in Minnesota. At
that time Bob Dunn was in sympa-
thy with the railroad interests and
now the Hill people are supporting
him for governor against Collins,
who is a pronounced antimerger-
ite.' BY the above it will be seen
that the Collins sentiment is increas-
ing:
