judicial Tlcket--Reynolds Of Duluth and
Hall OF Red Wing Favored Says
Roosevelt VIII Have 40 900 In Minnesota
congressional Filings Complete.
John Lind is tired of being everlastingly
placed in the attitude of refusing office
and then giving In to the popular clamor.
The recurrence Of such a circumstance
has created an impression that It is done
for dramatic effect, and this is sdistaste-
full to Mr.. Lind, who understands 1T per-
fectly. For this reason 1t Is not likely
that he will reconsider his determination
announced In The journal yester-
day. strong effort will be made when
he returns from the coast to get him to
accept the supreme court nomination The
democrats are not willing to take his no
for an answer, but it seems likely that
they must. He gave fair warning before
going to the coast that he would not ac-
cept any nomination., and so cannot be
blamed.
The vacant place will have to be filled
by the democratic state committee. The"
names Of Joseph Ward Reynolds of Du-
luth and 0. M. Hall of Red Wing are
most frequently mentioned The one chos-
Ell will go on the ballot in opposition to
Judge Jaggard. There is a possibility that
Judge w. B. Douglas, who was defeated
for the republican, nomination by Judge
Jaggard, may be put on the democratic
ticket, but democrats consider that in
the nomination of Brown and Lovely they
have made sufficient. concession to the
non partizan principle Judge Brooks
would be a popular selection. but he has
filed for the district bench again.
The democratic state committee is like
ly to be called together in about a week
fnys ro,7i1 inY, IT. wi aI,oi
man Of the convention, has to name six
members at-large in consultation with the
candidates. The committee will be called
together by Judge Buck. chairman Of
the last committee. and the outlook indi
Gates that he will be selected to serve as
chairman again. He was a leader of the
anti Parker forces in the late unpleas-
antness, and was the only man they sue
ceeded in electing as a delegate at-large.
His selection would please that element
| Of the party, and is understood to be
| satisfactory to John A.. johnson. If the
committee has any vacancies to fill, this
work will have to be done soon. The
certificates of nomination must be filed
with the secretary Of state by the fifth
Saturday preceding the election, which
means that the ticket must be made UP
| by Oct. s.
John Lind was interviewed by a
journal correspondent FOrLlanQ, Ore.,
when on his way thru that city. He said:
Minnesota will give Roosevelt majority Of
4o, 900 votes in November, but strongly believe
that democratic governor will be elected Min
nesota is a republican state. but Mr. Dunn is de-
cidedly unpopular with many of the best re-
publlcans in the state. He has a strong opposi-
ton and l. do not believe that he can be elected.
| The Pioneer Press, which is doing its
duty nobly as the official organ of Can
didate Dunn, is devoting a column or sc
daily to telling how united republicans
are In the various counties and congress.
sional districts. "Those articles make mi
suspicfous,'' said a well-known local re.
publican, that there is really serious
trouble in the air. OF course, I know
a very large per cent of republicans >dt
not intend to vote for Dunn, but If
had never heard Of such a thing, my sus
picions would be aroused. If all is seren'
