ion of the former congressman's
excellent Judgment and sound
common sense.
There were numerous impli-
cations and insinuations in Mr..
Eddy's address which cannot be
mentioned in this already too
lengthy article. The Herald very
much doubts the ability of either
the Hon. Frank M. Eddy or any
other man to prove to the salts
faction of the people that John
A. Johnson is a pettifogger, in
sincere, and a deceiver.

A WORD WITH VOTERS

The Herald offers the above
ticket to the voters without ex-
cuse or apology. The Herald
believes it to be a ticket good
enough for any good citizen to
vote for.
The Herald advocates the elect
ion of VIM. H. Taft for president
because it believes him to be the
best qualified man who ever was
nominated for the highest Office
in the gift of the people, and be-
cause he will carry out the polio
les of Theodore Roosevelt.
The Herald supports Hon. G.
A. Lindbergh for congress be-
cause that gentleman has made
an excellent record in that body,
and especially because he acts
independently of party dictation
when, in his judgment, the pnblic
good demands it.
The Herald supports Messrs
Eberhart, Schmahl and Dinehart
because they have made good'
in their respective Offices and are
entitled to second term. Mr..
Elmquist for railroad commiss-
ioner appears to be an excellent
man for the place.
The Herald supports Mr.. Mat
ti,ews for attorney general on
account of personal friendship
and because Mr.. Matthews is a
cultured gentleman, an excellent
lawyer and we'll qualified for the
Office. r.
In the person of H. P. Bjorge
the people have a candidate for
railroad commissioner who will
stand for their rights all the time
instead of being an open friend
of the corporations as Ira B.
Mills is and has been. For this
reason The Herald supports him.
The Herald supports John A.
johnson for governor because he
has made good" Mr.. Johnson
is a shining example of what a
poor boy can become in this COM
monwealth. The story of his
rise from poverty and obscurity
to national figure, and all by
his own unaided efforts, is one of
the household words of Mime
sofa. His strict integrity, sterl-
ing manhood and devotion to
duty in whatever position he has
occupied are lesson for the
youth of the country to ponder.
His opponents have yet to bring
forward one valid argument to
prove that he is not a fit man for
the position which he has filed
for. four years and to which he
honorably aspires for another
two years. John A. johnson has
made as good governor as
Minnesota ever had. He has not
only performed his official duties
conscientiously but he has reflect
ed credit upon the state both at
home and all over the country.
It is worth something to Mime
sofa to have a man who has risen
as he has to position where the
|eyes of the nation are upon him.
Mr.. Johnson's appointments have
averaged as good as those of any
The Sauk Centre herald., 1908-10-22

Mr.. Eddy complained because
Frank Day, John E. King and
Harvey Grimmer, all employees
of the state, were putting in
their time at democratic head
quarters trying to re-elect Mr..
Johnson. He might have said,
but didn't, that the secretary of
state, the state treasurer and the
lieutenant governor have been
and are spending considerable
time on the stump trying to re-
elect themselves, while the at
torney general and his assistant
are also out campaigning part of
the time. If this is wrong in one
case, why not in another?
Mr.. Eddy very properly criti-
cised that portion of the public
press that has ridiculed Mr..
Jacobson's personal appearance.
! He referred to the fact that
Abraham Lincoln was so ridicul-
ed, and left the inference that
jacobson was in the Lincoln class,
though he did not say so in so
many words. The Herald has
not criticised Mr.. jacobson and
is not going to begin now, but it
believes it reflects the general
opinion when it says that neither
the republican candidate for
governor nor any other man, liv-
ing or dead, is in the same class
with the martyr president.
Mr.. Eddy laid much stress on
the third term proposition but
failed to mention that the late
John S. Pillsbury served three
terms. For his Illustrations he
went outside the state. The
Herald mentions this simply to
call attention to Mr.. Eddy's
omission.
Mr.. Eddy's Characterization of
independent voters as sore
heads" little gods on tin
wheels" and salt Of the party, y
which he used on his visit here
early in the campaign, was not
in evidence Saturday night.
These epithets stirred up a
hornets nest here and possibly
elsewhere. Mr.. Eddy, in his
Saturday night speech, disclaim-
ed all responsibility for the utter
ances of the state republican
press bureau. which disclaimer
was received as another exhibit

MAN-EATING TIGER.
India Native Always Knows Where
He May Be Found.

ne Way Dc OunO.
1 have lived for weeks alongside
quite small, well defined forests con-
tanning tigers. Looking down from
the hills I could always tell when a
tiger was on foot, where he was walk
ing and when he lay down to rest,
for all of these movements were re-
ported by screaming birds and chat.
tering apes from the treetops, says j.
D. Rees in the Calcutta Statesman.
BY the like telegraphy and by the
woodcraft which is born in them, by
the instincts and habits of countless
generations, the villagers are perfect
ly we'll posted regarding the great
beasts, and particularly regarding the
tigers, in their neighborhood. The
man eater is we'll known over the
whole of his sometimes very exten-
sive beat.
A sportsman arriving-provided the
villagers have confidence in him, and
this is a large provision, for they must
know their man-will have no diff
Guilty whatever in being accurately
informed concerning the man-eater's
movements, but whether he will per-
suade the villagers to help him to get
up to his quarry will depend entirely
upon his personal reputation. s-.
1t is easy enough to build little
leafy screen in a tree over a pool and
to sit and doze there night after night
till the tiger comes to drink in the
moonlight and cannot be missed, but
it is quite another thing to beat out
and face the man-eater on foot. Con-
sequently the sportsman does not al
ways get taken up to the man-eater,
but this is not because the villagers
do not know where he is, or rather
she. for it is the female who general
ly preys on man. \
The indiscriminate offer of rewards
in no way tends to the destruction OF
the real man-eater, while 1t insures
the wholesale determination of the
useful, indeed indispensable, deer and
pig stalker and the cattle litter.

Variety at Sea.

For variety at sea, once when we
had been pracitcing with the six-inch
guns, and were securing" for dinner
hour, we saw monster spouting OF
our starboard beam. We begged to
take shot at it, and the oflcer of the
deck, recognizing an impromptu tar
get, gave US leave. We fred two
shots, and the expression, "a sea Of
blood" which I had always looked
upon as an extravaganza Of speech,
became a reality. When we returned
from mess the ocean for mile sur
rounding the whale was as red-well.

Mr.. tDDY'S SPEECH

! whom his fellow citizens of Sauk
Centre always delight to honor,
delivered here Saturday night a
political address, full report of
which is given in the news
columns of this issue. AS cam
paign orator Mr.. Eddy takes
rank with the best of them. He
is witty, eloquent, adroit, master
full, and amply able to make the
worse appear the better reason.
Much campaign oratory is
colored to meet the ends sought
by the speaker. So with Mr..
Eddy's, be it said in all friendli-
ness. Mr.. Eddy directed his guns
at Governor Johnson. He fired
shot after shot at the popular ex-
ecutive. The main end and aim
of the attack was to prove that
Mr.. Johnson is a pettifogger and
a deceiver, both of which epithets
he applied to the governor.
He claimed that the governor
is simply follower and not an
originator, and that he is backed
by a coterie of democrats who are
striving to save their necks.
Mr.. Eddy was especially horri-
fed because Frank Day, Dick
O'Connor, John McDermott, John
King and Anton Weiss are back
ing Mr.. johnson. Without dis
cussing the merits of this quintet,
The Herald suggests that for a
Frank Day the republicans have
a Oar Reese to offer, for a Dick
O'Connor they possess a Bill
Grimshaw, as an offset to John
McDermott they can produce a
Fenton G.. Warner, for a John
King they glory in Bob Dunn,
for an Anton Weiss they can
bring forward a Tams Bixby, all
of whom are supporting Mr..
Jacobson. If the democratic
galaxy named by Mr.. Eddy is
bad medicine" what of the re-
publican five?
Mr.. Eddy charged that Frank
Day controlled the convention
that nominated John A. Johnson.
Everybody knows that the chief
boss" of the republican convent
ion was Oar Reese-Reese of
malodorous political fame and re-
cord, Reese the man whose at
tempt to ride rough shod over his
contemporaries on the Ramsey
county delegation at the state
convention was denounced in the
most emphatic terms to the pub
Usher of The Herald by the Sauk
Centre delegate to the state re-
publican convention.
In speaking of Mr.. Johnson's
official record Mr.. Eddy said much
by inference and insinuation. For
instance when referring to the two
cent rate bill he said Bob Dunn
was the first man to propose such
a measure. Mr.. johnson does not
claim to be the first man to pro-
pose, but he truthfully claims to
be the first governor to recon-
mend the passage of such law
to the legislature, and his recon
mendations were carried out, as
were many others. Mr.. Eddy
either knew or he did not know
the facts in the case. If he did
not know them, his ignorance
appears objectionable; if he
was conversant with the facts,
then his half truth statement
lays him open to the charge he
lays at the governors door,
namely pettifogging and insincer-
ity.
Referring to the fact that Mr..
johnson has been away from St.
Paul to lecture, both in colleges
and for lecture bureau, Mr..
Eddy said he had never criticised
the governor on this ground, but
he claimed that the executive
had misrepresented the facts in
the case. Mr.. Eddy, however,
gave Mr.. johnson a clean bill of
health by remarking: Il would
probably have done the same
thing myself"

The amendment In question was of
benefit to no one excepting to these
criminals, and it seriously hampers
the government in the detection of
crime and the securing of justice.
Moreover, it not only affects depart
ments outside of the treasury but 1t
tends to hamper the secretary of the
treasury himself in the effort to util-
ize the employees of his department
so as to best meet the requirements
of the public service. 1t forbfds him
from preventing frauds upon h Gus
toms service, from Investigating if
regularities in branch minis and as
say offices, and has seriously crippled
him. 1t prevents the promotion of en-
ployes in the secret service, and fur
t err discourages good effort. In its
