Ripley Bower OF St. Cloud VIII Not Be
Candidate For Governor.

Senator Ripley Brewer will not be a
candidate for the republican guberna-
torial nomination. He is going after
the nomination for congressman from
the sixth district and no amount of per-
suasion can move him"
II repeat this said Secretary OF
State Hanson, because | see story is
going the rounds that the state senators
at meeting to be held this week are
going to pick him as their candidate.

has said he will not go after or accept
the nomination for governor and know
he means it. \ mountain could not
move him. These repeated stories of his
gubernatorial candidacy are simply for
the purpose of diserediting his candi-
dacv for congress in the sixth.
All this gubernatorial talk is wild at
this time. / think it is impossible TO
forecast what the next convention will
do. or who will be the candidate. The only
part l am going to take in it is de-
termination to stand by the nominee,
Block, Lord, jacobson, Eddy or any
body else that the convention may de-
eide upon. i think we can safely leave
it to that body to pick a winner.
For the information of the public it
might be well to say that Secretary OF
State Hanson is Senator Brewers faith

HIS MIND is FAILING.
M. K. Armstrong; Recovery is Doubt

From Thursdays Daily.
NJ. X. Armstrong, who is now at the
home of his nephew, ID. c. Armstrong,
in Albert Lea, is failing quite rapidly
and his mind shows the effects of weak
ness in a more marked degree as time
passes. He requires great deal OF
care as in some respects he is almost
as helpless as little child. Physicians
do not give a very encouraging report
as to his recovery, as his health has
been broken for some time and the
death of his wife month or two ago
seems to have greatly affected him.

record of the waning days Of the
present council which goes long way
TO atone for any inactivity of the
past. That these acts meet the ap-
proval of the whole city need not be-
stated here. The people are unani-

Editor Review: Is it the correct
thing for any body Of citizens to use
the city hall for political purposes !
| understand this has been done, and
that the meetings have been held with
doors locked. If it is right for city
buildings to be used for these pur-
poses, why not say so, in order that
all political parties may avail them
