The biographical sketch feature
of the 1907 blue book is interesting
reading. Unwittingly those con-
tIibuting to it's pages have fur
nished things historical that were
never intended to have been put
in cold type. Now, there is State
Auditor Iverson who acknowledges
to twepty-six straight years of
Office holding and he is not through
yet. Frank A. Day says he served
his state as republican up to the
nineties, when he acted as dele
gate to the national democra tic
convention in 1904, was at one
time republican lieutenant COVER
nor and now there is not a more
ardent exponent of democtatic
doctrine in Minnesota. Anton
Schaefer, public examiner, was an
elector on the Palmer and Buckner
ticket in 1896 and he stumped the
state on sound money platform.
Now he is a democrat and holds
Office under a democratic governor.
Silas w. Levitt, of the board of
control, is listed as a democrat,
though he is not down as such on
the records in the. governor
office. p. M. Ringdal, of the same
board, is down as a populist.
Frank Day counts him as demo-
crat. And thus the sketches run.

mentioned

Some prominently mentioned
gubernatorial aspirants who were
particularly pestiferous in their
attitude towards the north country
will please take notice that there
will be something doing if they
poke their beak into the political
arena next year. In the overzeal-
Gus desire to play politics for the
benefit of a few, south of an imagin
airy line dividing the north from
the south end of the state, certain
willing-to-be-it statesmen (?l have
attracted attention and made
several kinds of damphools of them
selves. Their names are too well
known to need much advertising
at the present time but before the
next state campaign rolls around
some one will receive notorlety in
sufficiency. Several of those we
have In mind are already barricad-
ed behind state position but their
dislodgement will not be par
ticular strenuous undertaking.
Bear this in mind.
