lions. Human life and that which sus-
tains life is Of first Importance. 1t is
the highest right known to the law"
Ever since the delivery of that speech
Mayor Jones has been busy trying to
answer it. He has not been able to
confine himself to the precious lid or
civic righteousness. Daily recitals of
crimes Of violence have drawn the at
tention uf the people OF this city to
Mayor Eaynes' speech in q way that is
forcible if not desirable. Mr.. Haynes
has been mayor of this city and the
police record of his administration is
before the voters for consideration and
comparison with the present police ad-
ninstration. 1t will be found that the
majority Of people do not enthuse over
theories. No doubt the majority of the
people want the morals of the city pro-
tected but we think that they are I'M
willing to cntrust the city government
to officials who constitute themselves
the protectors of the public morals
while leaving unprotected the lives and
property of the citizens. \ little more
protection for life and property and
less talk about moral tone" and civic
righteousness is what the people de-
mand at the present time. Mr.. Jones
is telling us that he found the moral
tone Of tho city in such a condition
when he took Office that 1t has taken
his entire term to adjust the morals
Of tho people and that ir reelected he
Will give his next term to the building
up of a proper police protection. There
arc great many people who think
that it would have boon better for
Mayor Jones to have made Minneapolis

Al amy rate. il is we'll that there is
to be no false issue before the people
1t is we'll that Mr.. Haynes made it
Impossible for Mayor Jones to carry OIL
the sorl of campaign that he carried
on before the primaries. This election,
so far as the lnayoraIty goes is to be
decided upon the question as to which
Of the two men is the more likely TO
give this city Il good administration Of
all its affairs. II is not to be decided

THE MUNICIPAL CONTEST,

1t is really amusing to note with
what ill-concealed discomfort the sup
porters OF Mayor Jones received tho
declaration Of Mr. Haynes in favor Of
the lid" Mayor Jones and his close
supporters reiterated upon many oc-
casions before the primary election
that they were fighting for Il principle
and not for the man. Men were Of no
Importance but the principle for which
they fought was vital. Under these
circumstances, il they were sincere,
they ought to have hailed with delight
eX-Mayor Haynes declaration. But,
exactly the contrary is true. The
Journal in IL double-column editorial,
seized upon Mr.. Haynes speech in
favor of the lid" as an opportunity
for calling him a dcmagoguc. 1t was
proof positive to the Journal that Mr.
Haynes was AN unfit person to be
mayor. The way Mayor Jones and his
supporters received this endorsement
at the hands Of Mr.. Haynes proves
that there is something closer to their
hearts than the principle" They had
out. They were to be the upholders of
civic righteousness and the defenders
and protectors of the morals of the
people. Mr.. Haynes was to have moth
ing left for him except to become the
advocate of law violation and all that
was bad in the community. Mr.. Jones
and his supporters We're to go before
the people as the representatives of all
that was good. MI Haynes was to oc-
cupy the opposite position. The Demo-
cratic nominee refused to be put" He
complimented Mayor Jones for the only
good thing that he has done, but prom
Used. if elected, to do the same thing,
and then challenged and compelled
Mayor Jones to pay attention to the
real issues Of this compaign.
Events of the past two weeks have
done much to convince people that
James G. Haynes was right when he
said in his opening address at the Audi
torium: There is an infinitely larger
question at issue in this city today
than the Sunday closing Of saloons or
even the suppression of gambling. To
most minds the enforcement Of the law
for the protection Of our precious lives
and our hard-earned substance is Of
more Importance than tho literal en-
forcement Of any mere police regula-

AN ATTEMPT TO CLEAR COLE.

The Duluth Evening Herald takes
the ground from under Mr.. jacobson
In his attempts to make the people be-
lievc that Cole was not the choice of
tho corporations. Jacobson admitted
in a recent speech at Fergus Falls that
tho corporations defeated him at Du>
luth, but in the same breath says that
Cole, the successful candidate, was
not Nominated by the corporations.
The Heralds comment is as follows:
IT is no news to anybody that the
corporations defeated ]. +. jacobson
for the Republican nomination for
governor at Duluth last June. 1t Is
no news. either, that the joyful event
was celebrated after the convention
with an orgie that will so down in his
tory as the most shameful gioating OF
the Interests" over the downfall of
the peoples choice that ever took place
In Minnesota.
And yet Mr.. Jacobson has stultifled
himself by procaimlng, in the same
breath. that there is no reason why
any Republican should not support the
man that prottcd by this unholy VIC
tory OF money and trickery over the
peoples will!
Mr. Jacobson attempts to show that
Mr. Cole was neither the first or Sec
ond choice of the corporations that
defeated him. Who. then. was their
first choice? Who was their second
choice? Where did they give any cv-
idcncc of having any choice except
Cole? For what other candidates were
their manipulated votes cast? Did they
not throw them to Cole in a bunch
and stampede the convention just in
time to prevent the nomination Of
Jacobson?
Would any man Of high principles.
any man who valued his good name
higher than he did an empty honor.
accept 81 nomination that has been
trailed through the mirc of corrupt in
huences and that was handed to him
stained with the filthy touch of trick
cry and deceit?
Are there not plenty of reasons why
Republicans should fail to honor the
perverted choice of a convention In
which tho corrupt interests stalked un-
challenged and boldly and openly de-
fed the wishes Of the rank and file OF
Repubicanism. defeating the popular
choice by a well-turned trick and then
rejoicing brazenly in their triumph.
1t is shameful, but it will be more
shameful still II the Republicans of
this state should condonc this trcach.
cry by accepting the candidate that
was so created. Everybody in Duluth
knew that the night before the con.
vention voted A. L. Cole Of Walker
saw defeat staring him in tho face and
announced his intention to Withdraw.
That was late in the evening, yet be-
fore the stars paled with the oncom-
ing of the mornings sun, the deal had
been made that defeated jacobson and
nominated Cole.
Is it any wonder that patriotic Re-
publicans look askance when partisan
appeals are made to them. and when
they are repeatedly told that there
is no reason why any Republican
should not vote for COLI"
