SHERIFF..

William j. BATES-I would resoect-
fully announce to the voters of St.
Louis county that I am a Republican,
candidate for the nomina ton for sheriff
at the approaching primary election. If
nominated and elected I shall endeavor
to occupy the office in a fair and i'm
partial manner toward all, while dis
charging the duties in thorough man
ner. I have tried to make good de-
putty sheriff and shall, if elected. try
and meet the requirements of sheriff in
every detail.
JACK MILES-I hereby announce
myself as candidate for the Repub-
lican nomination for the office Of sher-
if. I have lived in Duluth for the
the Central High School, and served as
a private in Co. A, 14th Minnesota
Volunteers in the Spanish American
war, and in quelling the uprising of the
Chippewas at Leech Lake in October
1895
I believe that I am qualified to dis
charge the duties of this important Of
flee, and as I never have been a can
didate for office. I respectfully soli-
cit the support OF the Republican vo-
ters of this county. Members of I'M
ION labor can rest assured that I am
friendly to their cause, and if elected
to the office of sheriff my only pur-
pose will be to see that the law is en-
forced. I will be in league with no in
terests that will seek special favors.

WALTER WELLMAN ON colo
RADIO

walter Wellman, the we'll known
washington correspondent, who gave
wide circulation to the Miller case. and
who recently gave lengthy story on
the efforts Of the Parry organization at
Washington and THERE contemplated
movement In behalf Of the open shop.
has just returned from Colorado and
writes bitterly against the Western
Federation of Miners, and particularly
against President Meyer and Secretary
Haywood Of that organization.
Like any one, no matter how exnert
who attempts to color story. Mr..
Wellman leaves himself open for severe
criticism. He says that the member
ship Of the miners union is composed
OF honest and Industrious men, and
then on the other hand he upholds the
mine owners for departing 23s of them
for no other reason than that they were
members of the Western. Federation Of
Miners.
Mr.. Wellman evidently hobnobbed

His long experience in the city clerks
office has equipped him for the many
duties Of a commissioner. No matter
who gets the nomination, the invinci-
BILE Ole Berg will give them all a. race

John Owens, former clerk of court,
is being urged to file for the Demo-
cratic nomination for member of the
legislature from the 50th district, and
there is no better man In this county
than this same John Owens.
Edward Patterson, it was thought
for time would have everything his
own way for reelection as county COM
missioner in the Third, Fourth and
Fifth wards Of this city. Now rumor
has 1T that man named Cox was to file
against him. The Democrats are look
ing for suitable candidate. Among
those mentioned are Hector Mclean,
john Grockovski. P. J. Neff and Ed
ward Ribenack. ANY one of these
would prove to be good timber.
The candidacy of n. F. Hugo for
| SpCohCA " lA1c Is progressing Ia
vorably. He is receiving assurances
of support from every section Of the
state. It will be quite an honor for
Duluth to have Mr.. Hugo speaker of

He accuses President Meyer and
Secretary Haywood with being morally
responsible for the reign Of terror in
Colorado. Why? Simply because they
have openly der1ared themselves in
favor Of labor taking political action
and getting control Of the government.
AS one Of the mine owners recently
said in letter to an eastern friend:
1T is a question whether we shall run
the state OF the Workingmen." That
is the whole question in a nut shell.
The miners union, attacked by the
mine owners, every power OF wealth In
the state and the public officials. has
no other alternative. They have been
fighting for over year out there.

In politics are against them. In so
much as the mine owners are in poll

eminent to protect their interests,
there. should not be any reasonable
objection to labor adopting the same
methods.
The man who upholds the reign of
anarchy in Colorado is no friend Of free
government. We have said it, and we
say 1t again, that the courts of Colo
RADIO are strong enough and safe
enough to try every criminal case
brought before them. The miners Of
that state have been denied the right
Of a trial in the courts Military or
CARNATIONS and vigilance committees
have been the judges and juries and
citizens have been robbed Of their

such proceedings? There Is but one
answer. He was writing under in

This was to be expected. No greater
