Whitenaan is aSelf-Respecting Republican.
AS a candidate for the next repub-
lican state convention Duluth is en-
titled to have her claims carefully
considered. Any self-respecting re-
publican would rather go to Duluth
than St. Paul or Minneapolis any old
time. Herald-Star.

HarlOts Have No Sense of Decency
Singular as it may appear the
chairman of the state central com
mittee seems to be pursuing the even
course of his way, despite the frantic

Less Time for Satanic Strategems.
Wry faces and sarcastic utterances
portray the disappointment felt by the
Johnson-republican papers because of
the refusal to call an early republic
can convention. A late convention

dependence less time in which to carry
out their proposed betrayal of the
party .-Eveleth Star.

the impression that there is a popular
demand throughout the state for a

Blocks candidacy is about as popular
as white frost in strawberry time

The 500 line must be trifle slow
in North. Dakota, and the Rolette
paper of that state says: "The. 500
has arrived again, and freight, which
has been on the way from the twin

being unloaded. The. Christmas
goods are too late for last Christmas,
the merchants say, and too early for
the coming Christmas" Battle Lake
