fectly natural, in my Judgment, that
a defendant in one of these suits for
an amount of more than $4,000 should
have boosted openly Of the amount Of
money he spent in an attempt to con-
troll the, Republican convention at
Duluth, and that at a celebrated ban
quet given to the defeated candidates
for governor at that convention, he
claimed the credit of a great victory
and announced to them that If they
had done business with him, one Of
them might have been nominee for
governor in that convention.
In the keynote speech OF my oppo-
nent in this campaign, there is little or
no discussion Of the timber question
in Minnesota. 1t is a. question in
which every citizen Of the state has
a keen and vital interest. 1t comes
as close to the interests Of the common
people Of. this state as any other ques-
tion. The least that any?rman who is
a candidate for public position in this
state could have said on this great
question was that, If he was elected
to any public position; he would see to
it that: the public interest was con-
served that trespass cases pending
should be prosecuted to the end, and
that timber trespassers would be- made
at all times to pay the full penalty OF
the law. I promise you, that If am
reelected I shall pursue the same

In a special message urging that body
TO make proper provisions that there

provisions for the appointment OF ad-

ing for penalties for. timber trespasses

the litigation has been somewhat
tedious, but the supreme court of our

opinion in which the constttutionality
Of the law is upheld, and there remains
no doubt whatever: Of the successful
termination and conclusion of these

 The members of the delegation, said Mr. Lowering. are going to ask that cotton be put up in stronger bales The present system of baling cotton has been used for more than half q century. It is of no protection to the cotton as the bagging may be cut or torn easily. Every bale of cotton is robbed of from fifteen to twenty-five pounds before 1t reaches its destination particularly if it goes to England. The dishonest cotton broker. who does not make his office rent out of the pick mgs from the bales he handles. is not considered uptodate It is hoped by the English visitors to have some re- forms in the baling of cotton instltu- ted.
