The Jacobson candidacy for gov
ernor of Minnesota is becoming more
popular with bounds and leaps, and
on June 20 every voting precinct will
give "Jake' a hummer vote and by
so doing send representatives to the
state convention July l, favorable to
him whether instructed or not.-Akeley

Savage Will Fall by the wayside.

Savage Will Fall by the Wayside.
The rank and file of republicans in
the state of Minnesota do not want
any Dan Patch politics in this state.
Brother Savage looks good to US on
an ordinary race track, but when he
enters the gubernatorial race, he will
not receive any consideration, except
from Hennepin county and W. H.
Grimshaw. Hennepin county is al
ways looking for trouble anyway.
They spoiled the broth last time and
now they are out again to turn the
same trick. This time, however, we
fear that they will be caught in their
own trap.-Chisago Press.

Kiester Courier Drives In a Nail.
Jacobson has been down to the
cities to have another conference with
the gubernatorial aspirants. Jake
had better "confer' little with the
people, for they have an ugly way of
late of making it known at the polls
when Things don't 60 to suit them in
the convention.-Appleton Press.
Jacobson has conferred with hi%'
friends with the best of results, but he
does not furnish them with newspaper
talk and plate matter to be twisted
about and used by his opponents.
The newspapers that support Jacob
son do so of their own accord and the
Jacobson boom is of natural growth.
-Kiester Courier.
He is the Peoples Favorite,
There is no real popular interest
anywhere for any one but Jacobson
and it is common talk that with any of
the other mentioned candidates lead
ing, thousands of the republicans will
not take interest enough in the cam.
paign to come out to vote. Then it
is beginning to dawn on the leaders
that Jacobson's strength is pretty
deep rooted. It is being pointed out
that he himself is doing nothing to en-
courage or stimulate it. He has no
press bureau and no headquarters.
He is sending out no literature, has
no agents to travel about the state
and boom him, in fact it can hardly
be said that he is conducting a cam
paign at all, yet his strength is con-
stantly growing, he is stronger this
week than he was last and the demand
for him is being more generally urged
every day. Then, again, the demo-
Gratis have started to knock him which
of itself would cinch the statement that
he is the strongest candidate if there
were nothing else to substantiate the
opinion. If the nomination contest
shows anything, it shows that Jacob
son is the only candidate who can be-
depended on to get the votes this fall.
That ought to count for something

SULTAN WILL FLEE

YACHT BEING PREPARED FOR HIM
Report Says His Gold and Vaiuablea

Constantinople A rumor that
Sultan Hamid, grown tired of the
demands Of the young Turks. intends
to fee the country, is being generally
credited in diplomatic circles here.
Discovery Of mysterious armed
yacht off Scutari, across the Bospho-
rus from Constantinople, has given
color to the report, A crew has been
loading packages aboard this yacht for
several days and these packages are
now said to contain the Sultan's gold
and other valuablcs.
1t is believed the Sultan is only
awaiting favorable opportunity to
board the yacht himself and TO sail to
some foreign capital. The Sultan is
convinced that he never will be able
TO meet all the demands OF the young
Turks and that his failure to do so
will eventually lead to his overthrow
