Jones is deficient in that kind of mix
ing ability which mixes wrong with
right. At this kind of mixing he has
failed. But as mixer in the true
sense he has made distinguished sue
| cess. He has mixed kindness with firm.
ness, zeal with Judgment; ability with
industry; action with opportunity. Il
When you go to the polls tomor-
muddled. The issues are clear enough.
On the one side is Jones and certainty;
on the other Haynes and uncertainty.
The choice is yours
MIR. Henderson to Speak.
Andrew Henderson, former chairman
| of the charter commission and one of
the best known printers in the city,
will discuss the municipal campaign
from the standpoint Of a workingman.
Mayor Jones has consistently stood for
square deal for everyone in the city,
and his official record as alderman and
mayor bears this out most completely
MI. Henderson, who has looked into
t t9 matter with some care, says. that
Mr. Jones has been a most consistent
supporter Of all eight-hour-day resolu-
lions. and OF all propositions for in
ereasing the pay Of the city employees.
His official acts have shown that he
has been consistent friend of. the
workingman. In fact, his record is
equal to that Of many who have posed
as the particular champions of the
cause Of labor.
The Sunday saloon policy is Endorsed
by Mr.. Henderson as of distinct adj
vantage to the whole city, and particu-
larly to the working people. vs. -
F. G. Winston to Speak.
Speaking as lifelong democrat,
Fendall G.. Winston, who two years ago
was the party, candidate for. lieutenant
governor will argue - tonight that,
judged by their records in office, Mayor
D. P. Jones, rather than Mr.. Haynes,
has been credit to the city and to his
party.
Mr.. Winston will call attention to
the, fact that he is and expects to re-
main always democrat, and that he
is a firm believer in the democratic
doctrine which demands equal rights
for all men in law and in administra
ton of the law; that, measured by that
standard, the present mayor Of Mime
apolis has proven himself thoro demo-
crat. He will point out that no fair
minded man should blame Mr.. Jones
for fairly and squarely administering
the laws that are on the statute books.
He will take the stand that if the peo-
pie are not satisfied with the laws, the,
men behind Mr.. Jones-and himself
among the number-will join hans
with any body Of citizens to secure
modifications. Of the law as to satisfy
all the people. :
party to- special privileges he. will
urge, means that that party wants such
| government that mo body Of citizens
or individual shall have special rights
granted to them, either thru favorit-
ism in legislative Bodies or thru graft
as generally understood in American
politics, and that to men who believe
in this doctrine of equal rights and law.
enforcement, special privileges to any
body Of men or to, any man in return
| for. valuable consideration is undemo-
grading to party, and ldiscredit to the
public official that permits it.
! 81" AS a cit1zen,' says Mr.. Winston,
"and above all caring most for the
| preservation Of these principles, and
Judging squarely by his record, I con-
slider that Mr.. Jones has proven him,
self a democrat in. every sense Of the
word.' ..~.s
Eyes of Nation; on City.
J. L. McCaull of the McCaull- Web
will tell why, in his belief as a bust
ness man, David p. Jones should be
| reelected mayor of Minneapolis by an
| overwhelming plurality. 49,
Mr.. McCaull will call attention to
| the fact that, tho Americans are un-
deniably today living in an age of
relentless activity, there is no good
reason why every citizen who has the
welfare Of the community at. heart
should not lend his individual aid to-
wards securing better citizenship
and city government. Not alone the
people. of Minneapolis are loking to
mayoralty contest; the whole state, the
| while nation is looking to Sc if this city
will vote for continuance Of better
government. The plain problem is,
what is best for men Of Minneapolis
today9 And voters should cast their
! ballots in answer to this question
There is no ground today, Mr.. McCaull
will hold, for clinging to the theory
that cities should be governed on the
wide-open' principles extant cen
fury ago. It is the duty Of the men Of
Minneapolis today to lay the founda-
ton for good government in Mime
ard who is unwilling to face the evils
of today and who bequeaths to his
heirs entanglementsz that should re-
ceive adjustment at his own hands.
Mr.. McCaul believes there are five
important things which Mayor Jones
stands for which the city needs. First,
a greater Minneapolis, city common
surate with the empire to which it is
the gateway; a substantial Minneapo-
lis, with elimination of all bombastic
presumption, structure that will and
should endure; an intellectual Mime
aapolis, city Of enlightenment and re-
fnement; beautiful Minneapolis, with
dirt and disorder eradicated and
wholesome environments established;
moral Minneapolis, a city with rational
moral regulations, with the delusion
done away with that barrels Of booze,
boisterous men and their associate
vices, constitute a live metropolis.
