Confessions of a Priest,

Rev. Jno. S. Cox of Wake, Ark.
writes, For IL years 1 suffered from
Yellow Jaundice. I consulted a num-
Der of physicians and tried all sorts

was defeated for the legislature be-
cause he was looked upon as the cats
paw of the Democratic machine in
Nicollet county. He tried again and
was finally elected to the senate. It
is usual to re-elect man if he proves
satisfactory johnson was not re-
elected. While he was in the legisla-
ture he never did anything that has
been worth remembering, except to OPP
pose with all his strength, measures Of
usefulness to the State and which
were passed in spite of Johnson's op-
position. He tried to kill the law
creating the State board of control by
endeavoring to affix an amendment
whereby the university and educa-
tional institutions of the State should
be under the control of the board.
1t is not necessary to enumerate
Johnson's shortcomings, nor is it
necessary to point out the excellent
qualities Of Dunn. Both are we'll
known. Dunn has nothing to fear.
His election will be a triumphal vindi-
cation of the course he has pursued in
public life.-Thief RIVER Falls Re-

The Stake in the Minnesota Election,


The election of Johnson, which some
blinded Republicans think SO small
price to pay for qualification of their
wounded feelings and personal resent
ments, means far more than putting
the execution of the laws for the next
two years in Democratic hands. It
means more than the election of Lind
meant. Lind was not Democrat.
The powerful machine he built up
through the patronage of the State
administration was a personal ma
chine for his own service rather than
the service of the party. 1t helped
build up his own greatness, but it did
not help the Democratic party to cap
ture single elective office.
It would be different now. The elec-
ton of Johnson would turn the whole
patronage of the governors office
over to the Democrats for use in con-
structing a permanent and formidable
party machine.
We are hearing that Mr.. Lind, Mr..
Winston, Mr.. O'Brien and other
strong-minded and far-seeing Demo
cratic leaders dream of making this
State permanently Democratic. That
dream seems idle now. But they might
we'll indulge it after obtaining COM
mand Of all the patronage of the gov
ernor's office and support of consid-
cradle Republican faction in the leg
islature. They would be too weak
this winter to do more than disorgan-
ize, demoralize and thwart useful and
necessary legislation by three-cor-
nered deadlock. But they might lay
strong and firm foundation for
second campaign two years later.
By that time the lofty moralists
whose tender consciences now compel
them to vote against the Republican
candidate for governor would dis
cover a sacred vocation to oppose,
defeat and destroy all Republican
candidates for office but themselves.
By that time the appointing power of
the governor would have turned
against the Republican party the
whole enginery of patronage and in
huence the present State administra-
ton has turned against Dunn. BY
that time the business depression
John Lind is praying for to take him
to the senate may have renewed the
calamity party of embarrassed bust
ness men and idle workmen
It will be what is called an off wear.
with senator to elect instead of
president. Then, if the Democrats
gain the executive patronage now.
they will try to grasp the bigger stake
for which they are playing Mime
apolis Tribune.

What John |. Gibbs Saws.

81 have been personally and
intimately acquainted with
every governor minnesota has
had, and | know whereof speak
when | say that in character, in
honor, in ability Robert G. Dunn
is the equal Of any man who
ever sat in the governors chair.
For years to come his adminis-
tration will be remembered with
pride by the citizens OF this
State.
'sHe is entitled to every Re-
publican vote in this State, and
he's going to get most of them,
too. In Steele county he will
get bigger vote than any other
man on the ticket. He is going
to be elected governor by over

A John Lind Ecn0,

When William E. Merriam ran for
governor John Lind, in the course of
a speech, made the following state
ments that are of interest at the pres
ent time:
Il will not talk On State politics.
You know Mr.. Merriam. I know Mr..
Wilson, and while will not say any,
thing harsh about him, l wish I could
say something good Of him. I did
not know there was such a man in the
State as Mr.. Owens before he got the
nomination.. Now, if you are going
to make a guess when you vote, re-
member that it is always safe to vote
with the Republicans. That is the
way l have sometimes done in con-
gress. I ask you to vote the Repub-
lican ticket, but I do not appeal to
you as a Swede. If to be a Swede
means to think we'll of our great men,
our language and our poets, then I
am a Swede, but if it means to vote
for man because he is a Swede. then
[ ain not Swede. I have heard it
said that a prominent Swede who did
not get a nomination on the State
ticket, has said he would not vote for
the man who did get it. Whenever a
man gets bigger than mis- party and
cannot abide by the decision of his
party then say it is time to drop him.
1 trust we shall all meet at the polls a
month hence with the same kind of
ticket in our hands,
