HONORlNG A DEPARTED HERO

The First Minnesota Of the Civil
war times will live in the annals of
heroism as long as history records tho
battle of Gettysburg.
Among the foremost to do their full
duty and more than their duty to their
beloved country on that memorable
day was Col. Colville, the regimental
commander, who was literally shot
full of holes" but was finally nursed
back to a longer Ii { marked USE
fulness and the respect of all men.
The Colonel went to his we'll earned
reward one year ago and his surviving
regimental comrades are agitating the
erection of suitable monument to his
memory. No better or more fitting
monument to the departed has ever
been proposed. May success crown the
loving effort of the surviving brave.

A CLEAR CONTEMPT OF COURT


The following story is told of a
justice of the peace, an Iowa farmer,
who was wgell known to be very
shrewd as we'll as close and stiney:
The year 1905 was made memora BILE
IN Iowa by a veritable potato bug
scourge. The pestiferous insect had
appeared in armies and had done UNI
usual damage to the tubers. The Justice
In question had exerted every possible
effort to overcome the pest with little
or no substantial effect, and was in a
receptive condition of mind, when one
fair morning last spring a young man
or seductive address strobe up to the
farm house.
The newcomer spoke Of a wonderful
1n'ent1on-a guaranteed destroyer of
potato bugs-for which he was solicit
Ing orders. The price for the magic
remedy was one dollar per and de-
livery was to be made within month.
The sorely tried justice needed little
urging. He had been waiting for lust
some such savior Of the race, and
placed an order with the young man
with astounding alacrity, paid his
dollar and noted with satisfaction the
guarantee which appeared on the re-
ce1pt and which read: I'VE hereby
promise to pay One hundred dollars
Tor each and every potato bug that
rails to die instantly after the proper
use Of our magic remedy"
The young man pocketed his dollar
and went his way rejoicing The Justice
told all his neighbors about this Won
derful remedy and found that thew
also had ordered the article from the
same young man and that the whole
community was in a state Of glowing
anticipation
A month later the rural mail carrier
brought the justice a small package
At last the much desired bug killer
had come, and the package was opened
with eager hands and the magic con-
tents exposed to view. Wrapped most
carefully In pink cotton.~batten Law
two thin white pine sticks abaut six
or seven inches In length and an inch
wide. These were numbered II" and

The farmer-justice was a. little
puzzled at first but he soon spied an
accompanying paper Of instructions
and read aloud to4the expectant family

When in Rome we do as the Romans
do-if we don't want to make Rome

illustrated the folly of trying single

JOHNSON AND COLE,

The Republicans are send out to the
voters OF St. Louis county, what they
regard as a dead open and shut"
letter why every citizen Of Duluth and
this county should support the candi-
oacy Of Mr.. A. L. Cole for Governor
Of Minnesota.
They first start out with the false
statement that Mr.. Cole is the only
candidate for state office who could
be regarded as Northern Minnesota
man. Is this true? Supreme Court
Justice Chas. L. Lewis has twice been
nominated from Duluth. Jos. G. Miller
of Two Harbors was six years ago
nominated and elected as a member
of the Railroad and Warehouse Com
mission. Should these men be belittled
Tor the purpose of working on the
prejudices Of the people Of this portion
of the state?
The letter of the Republican COM
m1ttee lays particular stress upon the
valuable 60 services rendered by A. L.
Cole In behalf Of this portion Of the
state in Northern Minnesota in the
State legislature. We have yet to
know of something about this mans
record In the legislature, outside of his
lobbying against the Railroad Demur-
rage Bill in the Senate two years ago.
Few people outside Of his legislative
district had any knowledge that he ever
served in the states law-making body
until he was nominated by accident by
the Republican state convention for
Governor of this state
The less they say about Mr.. Coles
career In the state legislature, the
better 1t will be for his chances in this
campaign. His record is nothing to
brag about or they would give certain
facts substantiating their claims.
On the other hand Governor john
son has splendid record as Governor
and State Senator. He has been
careful and enthusiastic advocate of
state development in every portion OF
Minnesota. With him there is no north,
no south, no east, no west. His slogan
has been to boost the entire state, and
as evidence of his sincerity we submit
to our readers the report of his
stewardship as given at Red Wing
early in the campaign.
Any voter who will read Governor
Johnsons speech through unprecedented
spectacles will agree that he has made

SOUSA's .eTHE FREE LANCE"

John Philip Sousa's newest comic

Mr.. sousa, apart from composing
some of the most stirring march music
has, in collaborat ton with others, turned
out several successful comic operas,
but it is the consensus Of critical opin-
ion that in composing 1.-THE Free
Lance he has given the musical stage
of America his best offering.
1.-The Free Lance Is described as
being a genuine comic opera, in which
the librettist has evolved as finished a
story as he did in his great success

THE NEXT GOVERNOR OF NEW
WORK.

1t has been claimed that William r.
Heast has risen to political prominence
and power because of the advertising
power of the immense circulation Of
his system Of newspapers and little
credit is given him, in that direction.
for either ability or sincerity of pur-
pose.
1t is a wide guess Of the truth. A
large circle Of readers and an avenue
to reach them at will is, it is true,
a means to an end not to be despised;
but no fair, well-informed person will
today deny either Mr.. Hearts great
practical ability or long continued
consistency Of action in behalf of the
great masses, in their struggle against
the aggressions Of the classes, that Is
strangely at war with the claim of the
absence of high ideals. Indeed, Mr..
Hearst's popularity, and that of his
journals, necessarily depends, to a large
degree. upon the extent and thorough
ness with which he represents the
thought and aspiration Of his readers
and supporters. His faithfulness to his
chosen ideals must ever be his guide
star to success. One marked departure
may unhorse him forevermore.
The fact of the matter is that the
success Of Hearst and the Hearst Jour-
nails is the direct result Of thescircum-
stance that both the man and his
creations stand for something and that
that Something finds an echo in the
popular heart. Though born to great
wealth, his heart-beats have not been
for the tinsel of his class but for the
aspirations Of the great body of the
people. He early enlisted in the great
fight Of the common people against
the aggressions Of plutocracy, plumber
and privilege. His personal efforts have
been in entire accord with his journal
istic manifestations.
The point Of it all, whatever the
apologist for special favors may say,
Is, that, with all the blessings that
have been vouchsafed the American
people in the aggregate, there has been
no such participation therein on the
part Of the great mass of the people
as properly and justly is their due.
This is particularly true of the indus
trial masses. A comparative few have
been allowed by uneconomic condi-
tons to grow inordinately rich, oppres-
s1ve and purse:proud at the expense
of the multitude. An embargo has
been placed on real thrift and common
honesty and sham ideals have been
substituted for the old time adages:
Honesty is the best policy; and
"Idleness is the mother of Vice."
The present great struggle is one
against the preparation of these un-
equal and unjust conditions; and Mr..
Hearst has had either the heart or
brain, probably both, to appreciate the
economic need of the hour and the
power, force and courage to consistent
ly meet the issue. A substantial en-
comium on both his capacity and his
integrity Of purpose may be found in
the venomous opposition Of that gilded
band1tti which nests chiefly in the
metropolis and numbers prominently
among it's directing forces the Ryan
Rogers type of giant exploit
ers and their McCarrons, Parkers and
lesser satellites.
If ever a man did; William Randolph
Hearst certainly deserves the love of
his fellow-citizens for the enemies he
has made.

$3.50 per share and the unloading of
