are handing out LII. D. and D. D. de-
grees would it not be good idea to
give members of congress the P. D. @.
degree?
Bemidji Pioneer: The latest polit-
ical gossip is that Governor Johnson
is ambitious to break into national
politics as a presidential candidate.
By 1908 Johnson will be too dead to
break into the baby's bank.
Red Wing Republican,: Admirably
selected, on platform which embod-
les the reforms asked for by the peo-
pie, there is every reason why the re-
publican ticket should be handsomely
indOrsed by the republican Wv ~ o..
Minnesota in November.
Duluth Herald: The man that fails
in life blames it upon everything but
himself But in most cases luck had
nothing to do with it at all. 1t was
poor playing, Or it was blindness to
opportunity or lack of energy to ac-
cept it when it offered itself, that led
to defeat and failure.
Echo Enterprise: The common peo-
pie can have anything they agree up
on. The work of the masters is to
keep them from agreeing by introduce
ing fake issues that, no matter which
way they go, the masters are still on
top. How many years have you help
ed them play the game to fool you?
St. Cloud Journal-Press: There is a
great deal of soreness under the sur
face among the local democrats
against Gov. Johnson. The turning
down of the excellent citizen and val
liant soldier, j. A. Mcdonald, was not
the popular thing, and then Stearns
county lost the Office of wheat inspec-
tor because of the warning factions.
Redwood Gazette: Senator A. O.
Eberhardt of Mankato represents the
on the state ticket, and in every pOr-
ton of the state there are hundreds
of these young men already working
for the success of the republican state
ticket-and their work will be reward
ed. Senator Eberhardt has a record
above criticism and is a tower of
strength to the ticket.
Lanesboro Leader: The govern
ment printing Office at Washington is
printing a lot of envelopes for Lanes
bOrO business firms. Primarily the
government is to blame for going into
private business, but why should bus
mess men send money to Uncle Sam
for printing that belongs at home?

Pioneer Press: Judge Oscar Hal
lam's statement in his address before
the alumni of the st. Paul College of
Law that "a lawyer who for a fee
will teach his client to circumvent the
law is as bad as one. who betrays his
Client" struck a blow at one of the
foremost evils of American life. For
the prostitution of legal talent and
training to the service of those who
habitually circumvent the law, and
even of those who openly violate it,
has attained an enormous vogue.
Fairmont independent: During the
strike in 1903 when Chicago would
have been laid in ashes by the howl
ing mob had it not been for the back
bone of Grover Cleveland, the labor
unions wired Senator Davis of this
state asking his political aid in con-
gress. The reply that he sent, we be:
lieve, if he had lived, would have made
him president. His reply was: II can
not accede to your demands. You are
treading near if not already over the
border of treason to your country and
are violators of laws, human and di-
vine.
ST.. Paul Dispatch: William J. Bry-
ans letters from the Orient, purport-
ing to give the results of his personal
observations while on his recent tour,
are proved to have been largely COP
led from guide books and other works
to which ready access could be had.
The letters gave an amount of detail
which it would have been simply i'm
