OTHER EDITORS OPINIONS

Chatheld News: H. j. Miller, of
Luverne, is showing up strong as
candidate for congress from the second
district. Congressman McCleary seems
to have lost his grip with his constituents.
Hayfeld Transcript: The Adams
Review these days is devoting consider
able space to the abuse of Rev. c. D.
Belden, the respected editor of the
Austin Transcript. Absence Of pro-
fessional ethics is especially noticed
and we doubt that the vigorous
language of Bro. st. Clair will add
either dignity or influence to the press.
Waseca Radical Rev. Satterlee says
great interest is being taken in the
revival meetings now being held in the
NJ. E. church at Austin. lie spent
several days last week assisting the
pastor there conduct the meetings and
says a great deal of good is being ac-
complished. The whole town has been
reused and the attendance at the meet
ings has been very large.
Verndale Sun: Dunn didn't make
the statement about the old soldier
getting drunk, says "Joel's man Friday
Kid Verify" Well Judge Eli Terrence
says he did, so we will leave it to our
readers to Judge between the two as to
who is right. Terrence is merely a
plain citizen, doing what he can for an
old cOmrade, while the "Kid," as you
all know, is in the employ of the Dunn
interests and quite liable to stretch
point now as he has done before.
Glenville Progress: Several of the
neighboring papers have taken up the
hardcoal kick registered by the Pro-
gress some weeks ago and the con-
census of opinion is that the reason
the coal is 50 poor this year is that we
are getting the refuse of the mines
from where they have been cleaning up
the accumulations of years. The
Northwood Index says that those who
bought their coal early have been the
chief losers as the later supplies have
been better.
Wadena Pioneer Journal: That Mr..
Dunn feels just the same to-day as he
did year ago is evidenced by the fact
that the powerful Hill influence in this
state is solidly arrayed behind him in
his candidacy for governor. No man
who is at all familiar with conditions
in this state will honestly dispute this
= Mr.. ILL and the interests he represents
will bend every energy to put man ii
S the governor char whose sympathies
y are with him. He never makes the
o mistake some citizens do. lie always
knows whom to support.
Midway News: The Princeton knock
e er has been forced to 60 way back and
y sit down, and take rest. For a mar
of his limited strength he has welded

e been knocking state capitol appropria
J. tions, however, nor the Mortified rob
bers, nor the pine thieves, nor ever

country editors, he has simply beer

T county has been getting the officia
news through his local paper, ever,

- are as pleased with the present plan o
d publishing the official statement, tn
e delinquent tax list and the board pro
II ceedings as the people of Goodhu
county, they will never revert to tn,
old method. The publication of thes
important documents in one paper AM
Il perhaps the one of the smallest circula
e tlon, is poor economy.
