Statewide Primaries.

The republican state convention, IN
refusing to adopt a plank for state
wide primaries, was actuated, no doubt,
by the sentiment which has prevailed
in the last two legislatures, one not OF
distinct hostility to the system, but OF
doubt how best to put it in force.
One Of the objections to statewide
primaries is that the state is too wide.
Minnesota is a country Of magnificent
distances. It has some sparsely- settled
counties; it has others containing great
cities. Whether all Of these counties
could have their due proportion Of in
fuence in the nomination of state Off
GERS under a primary system is a mat
ter of doubt. Unquestionably some Of
the. newer counties would suffer in
comparison with the present because
now they have a little more than their
share Of power thru delegates appor-
toned by counties. They could under
primary have no such complimentary
strength.
The holding recently Of state con
vention which was representative and
which had no eontesting delegations
gives the opponents of the direct pri-
mary excuse to point to the continued

What the College offers.-The decriers
of,gcoHege training have been answered
overland over again, not only by the COL
lege product, but by the controversialist
who has been ready to take up the chal-
lenge for debate. In The College Man
and the College Woman, by William De
Witt Hyde, president Of Bowdoin college,
no attempt is made at debate, but, in
revealing to themselves and to the world
college men and college women as they
are and as they may become, the author

Coming at this season Of the year when
the college is uppermost in the minds OF

The Best Men in Politics.

Complaint is often made that we
can't get our best men into politics.
The reason is not so hard to discover
when we stop to see how we sometimes
treat them. A gentleman who stands
very high in Minneapolis in point of
ability and character and who has had
valuable experience in public life, never
an offceseeker for personal advantage,
but just exactly the type Of man needed
in public life: consents, at the solicit
tation of men of his own kind, to al
low them to use his name in connec-
tion with the office of lieutenant COY
ernor. = .@E .G
Experience has shown that the office
is one Of great Importance. Under
long established custom comforting upon
the presiding officer Of the senate the
power to name committees, the ieu-
tenant governor becomes a more
important factor in. the legislative ma
chinery than any other member of
the state government except the speak
er Of the house. The governor s power
and influence is unimportant compared
with that Of lieutenant governor in
matters of legislation. ,.@ : -
Experience has shown the necessity
Of having in thatsposition a man of the
right stamp: But when this gentle
man, not an active candidate at any
time, becomes the victim of a large
political deal ana is thrown down hard,
but without having ::r:done anything
whatever to forfeit the esteem in which
he is held, servile home paper makes
him the object of a mean, nasty fling,
land inficts upon him Just that sort of
entirely. undeseryed humiliation and in;
suit which ought to be expected to
keep him and everyone of his kind out
of politics. 1t is sufficient notice to
| a decent, reputable man that he is. pref
tY sure to get bad treatment if he ven
lures into the political field, and an as
surance that character and ability, even
when coupled with disinterested public
spirit, are not safe from misrepresen-
tation and insult by the tools Of dirty
politics.

The story today of frog shows that
these little creatures have more intel
ligence than is generally supposed. Per.
haps after this boys will be kinder to
frogs. -, r.
A Frog Boarder
Two years ago farmer by the name
of Thompson found large frog in
front of his springhouse, and when the
milkmaid opened the door to put her
pail of milk in the spring, the frog
hoped in behind her.
He hoped out of reach of the girl 3
hand, and partially buried himself in a
bed of clay in the very darkest corner
There, in a stupor, neither eating nor
drinking all winter long, he remained
until spring. Then he departed.
Each autumn since then this frog has
appeared at the. first sign of frost and
made his winter bed in the farmers
springhOuse.
But the farmer desired to make an
experiment on him. So
He was awakened, lifted from his
warm nest, placed in a wagon; and car
rled to place a mile down the road.
There he was left. : p
Before evening he was back again.
The mllkmaid found him at :unset scat
ed before the springhouse door patient
| ~ waiting to be let in.
The above shows how a frog that
would travel mile to find its accus-
toned home shows more Intelligence
than frogs are generally credited with.

HUGE CANDLE REWARD

Journal Special Service.

New York, June 10 assale Della
croce, native Of Sicily, was taken ill
with rheumatism in this city year
ago. His wife prayed daily to her
patron saint, and at last vowed to
offer the largest candles ever manufac-
.tured should her husband. recover. He
moved to Tampa, Fla, and there re-
gained his health. By Mrs. Della
croce' g order the candle was shipped
yesterday to Tampa.
Mrs. Dellacroce had vowed that the
candle should weigh as much as her
husband, and the one she ordered
weighs 1927 pounds. It is Is feet
high, 10 inches in diameter at the base
and IL inches at the top. Upon it is
painted picture of the Madonna of the
chair.
The candle cost $3.50 and, according
to the manufacturers. it will burn a
year and a half. 1t will be lighted in

Cannon S Apology.

The statehood compromise agreed
upon in the house yesterday assures
the admission of Oklahoma and Indian
Territory as single state, and about
as certainly assures the rejection of
joint statehood by Arizona and New
Mexico
During the passage of the bill the
speaker left the chair in response to
q remark by the delegate from Arizona
and made an impassioned speech de-
Tending himself from the implied
charge Of having held back the report
ON the bill and Of having dictated it's
passage in the earlier and objection
able form. In the time honored man
ner of the old school Of politicians,
Uncle Joseph admitted that the Deity
= was well aware of his stand in the mat
ter, no matter how cruelty 1t might
be misunderstood and misconstrued
among men. From his statement we
gather that J. G.. Cannon has always
been more favorable, to the admission
arately, with four senator's, than to the
admission Of Arizona and New Mexico
even as one state with but two senators.
This shows what Cannon: has been
thinking about all the time, and that
was the number Of senators and their
probable politics. It does not seem to
have occurred to him that there was
more fundamental question than the
number of senators, and that was the
exercise by the congress Of the United
States Of an arbitrary power to tie
together in an indissoluble union two
territories whose manners, customs, laws
and population are Of radically differ
emit character. Arizona and New Mexi-
co are as different as Massachusetts,
and South Carolina. South Carolina is
very good state, but were it contlgu,
Gus, and were a proposition made to
unite it with Massachusetts,, the alb
surdity Of the attempt would be palmer
but. no more real than the effort to
unite New Mexico and Arizona. The
latter is an American country Under
it's territorial form Of government it
has developed a remarkably efficient
code Of laws. When it is ripe for ad
mission by itself it will come in with
a homogeneous population and Ameri
canized institutions. -,
Mr.. Cannon may be no more guilty
than his fellow members, but in this
statehood business the whole of the
house has been convicted Of political
pander from which it has been rescued
by the senate.
