Senator Wagner of Alexandria, was
in Canton Monday morning, on his
return from ST. Paul, where he tried
a case In the Federal Court before
Judge Sanborn. Senator Wagner is a
leading republican In Hanson county
and went direct to St. Paul from the
state convention where he helped
nominate his friends Gamble, Craw-
ford Shober and Cassill, and the en-
tire ticket. Senator Wagner is one
Of the ablest and squarest republicans
in the state. He says the men who
try to lead without taking the people
into their confidence is doomed to de-
feat, but the man who stands close to
the people is deserving of their con
fidence and is always a winner in a
square deal contest. Mr.. Crawford
went before the people and a great
victory followed. Machine polite
ians won't trust the people. This re-
form movement will continue until
every state is redeemed from machine
and corporation rule. Senator Wag-
ner left for Alexandria at 1890.
