Kandiyohi county is beginning to
recover from one of the hottest politi-
cal fights in it's history. The fight

hibitionists and the sprohibitionists
elected their sheriff, Peter Bonde, one
of the cleanest and most strictly
honest men in the state. He has been
chief of>police in Willmar for num-
Der of years during the period that
the city was in the 'Edry" colum, and
his work in surpressing blind-piggery
has been pretty thoro The prohibi-
tionists also came within few votes
Of electing a senator who made the
run on the county option issue. This
candidate was fought by every paper
in the county, except one.

the man is capable official or not.
If he does not bear the party brand
the candidate should be dubbed to a

Oh airman. Already this chairman

two years hence when be hopes to kill
off clean and capable men in office.
Here is what he says concerning a
man whose moral character and pub
lie service is above reproach:
"Bonde is elected and is entitled to,
and will receive, credit for his servi-
ces as an official. If he proves cap
able and efficient officer, Republicans
will have fight on their hands to: de-

Altho defeated, Hearst has &C.
comp'ished more than many a
pretentious statesman has done
in being elected. He has voiced
the discomfort of the working
people with the unfair division of
the proceeds of labor in such a
way that even the most arrogant
of the plutocrats have been
forced to acknowledge the exist
ence of this discomfort. They
realize now that they must meet
this condition and solve the pro-
blem in some satisfactory way,
or make way for a new social
system in the direction of social
ism. President Schurman of
Cornell College in an address de-
livered Nov. 20 voiced this feel
ing in the following words:
''The wage-earner, feeling himself
and his children doomed to poverty,
rises in rebellion against the economic
system which makes such things posi-
bic. He protests that capital gets too
large a share of the product which
laboring men create. His remedy,
when he has remedy, is confscation
of private capital in the public inter-
ests and the establishment of social
istic state, in which all such work and
all receive compensation in proper
tion to their deserts.
Somehow know not how, but
somehow-the organizers and finan-
ciers and managers of our most
modern establishments of production
and transportation must devise a
method whereby the men whose labor
builds them up shall become share
holders in the enterprise. The present
discomfort and ranking sense of in
justice must be got rid of, if our
economic and industrial system is to

ENGLAND'S NEW WARsHIP TYPE.
Cruisers Speed mi BrOadslde fire Equal
10 That Of the DreadnOught.

Special Cable Despatch % TIN Sun.
LONDON, Oct. 1.-THE Telegraph says It
learns that the three so-called armor
cruisers, the Invincible, InfexibLe and In
domitable, which are now being built on the
Clyde and Tyne. are In reality a new type OF
battleship, having q bzQadside dre equal
to that OF the Dreadnought and q much
higher speed. The paper says they will
be the most wonderful ships " built for
any feet, having greater offensive power
han n two battleships now In commission,
combined with extraordinary speed.
There has been more OF less mystery
regarding the vessels since they were
authorized in the spring Of 1905, a. was the
case with the D~readnought, and the present
revelations come a. a surprise.
The new ships will be Of 1880 tons, oom-
pared with the Dreadnought's 1890, but
they will be 40 feet longer. Their breadth
will be s11 feet less than the D~readnoughts.
Each will carry eight IL inch guns, against
the Dreadnought's ten. but their broadside
fire will be identical. a. the Dreadnought
is only able to fire eight Of her guns in broad
side, W lille the new vessels can fire all OF
theirs.
They will be equipped with turbine
engines designed to develop a speed OF
rs knots, but it is likely that oil their trials
they will develop 81. To provide for this
high speed something in the weight OF
armor has been sacrificed, but otherwise
the hulls will be constructed on the same
principle as the D~readnought's. The OBJ
Jet seems to be to enable them to over
take any foreign cruisers and sink them
by their tremendous concentrated gun
fire.
1t is expected that they will be launched
soon. When completed they will prob

CROKER'S PLEA IN LIBEL SUIT
Declares He Received No Monetary Benefit
From Tammany Hall.
Special Cable Despatch to TEE SUI

Special Cdbls Despatch TO TEE SON.
DUBLIN, Oct. lO.-Leave was granted to-
day to serve a writ out Of the jurisdiction
of the Dublin courts in the libel suit which
Richard Croker has brought against the
London M1oGzine for publishing an article
upon New York politics in which Mr..
Croker's methods are compared with those
of Boss Tweed.
Mr.. Campbell. K. C.. in applying TO Justice
Gibson for the writ said that Messrs. Carr
4 McCay, the Dublin agents for the Anal
Ramated Press. had already been served
with a writ and that the purpose OF the
present application was TO serve a con-
current writ on their principals. Counsel.
explaining this action, said that the state
ments made in the London Magazine Of
October were entirely false.
Mr.. Croker, he said, had eve derived
any money or moneys worth from his con-
nection with any Democratic organization
in New York. including Tammany Hall,
save and excepting the salaries which he
received from the different Offices he held
in the civil administration Of New York.
So far from having at any time used
his position for the purpose stated in the
article complained Of, he had never, as a
matter of fact, benefited directly or i'm
directly from his connection with Tammany
Hall. Nor did he at any time blackmail,
bride, corrupt or suborn any person.

SHAW on HIS death PLAY"

when PERI or lance Is Given,

Special Cable Despatch 10 The sun.
LONDON, Oct. IO.-G. r. Shaw, inter-
viewed regarding the play The Doctors
Dilemma" which he is writing in response
to William Archer's dictum that Mr.. Shaw
would never rank as a drsmatist Of the
highest class until he placed death on the
stage, said;
Its a cheap job, and is utterly unworthy
Of my powers. So far as death being the
supreme test OF an authors ability it is the
crutch of every dramatic cripple, the onion
of every dramatist who cannot pump UP
a real tear. Life is the important thing.
Who cares how, when or where anybody
dies"
Mr.. Shaw added that there would be
lots Of pathos in his play. The theatre,
he declared, would be damp with tears
and windy with shifts. The fourth act
would give London rheumatism. People
would have to bring their brains with them,
too.
