state which now has more than it's
share of representation try and hold
onto it. Fairness to all would call
for reapportionment based on pop

which have more representation than
belongs to them rightfully don It hap
pen to like it.-Be1view independent.

Little Barking Puppies
There are good many small dogs
who consider it prerogative of their
size to viciously snap at the heels of
large dogs. There are a good many
men of wealth and power who, behind
these breastworks, assume the privi-
lege of throwing ripe eggs at their Gin
feriors. Duluth News Tribune.

After the So Per Diem.
Candidates for chaplain of the
house of representatives this winter
are wondering just which lucky dom
inie will be chosen. All of these
aspirants seem to have the mission
airy spirit all right and the house will
be wide field for them to labor in.
-Anoka Herald.
Make Him President of the U.
Gov. JOhnsOn's miserable attempt
to force his political machine into the
educational institutions has aroused
the press and citizens of the entire
state. j. W. Olsen has served his
time at the trough anyway, and it is
time his feet were pulled out and
placed alongside.-Royalton Banner.

Mild in the Banana Belt.
Surprises are always in store.
When several families of Dakota set
tiers landed here this week they were
also surprised at the mild weather,
and no snow, in this section of the
universe, one of the party averring
that they left Dakota with the ther-
mometer lowering between 30 and 40
degrees below zero. Whew.-Ogilvie

Fitness Secondary Consideration.
1t is intimated that Supt. j. ".
Olsen is scheming for the appointment
as dean of the agricultural college to
succeed E. W. Randall, and probably
some other democratic politician
would like to become president of the
state university. The matter of fitness
for the::position appears to be entire
" a secondary consideration. Hast

An Emulsion Candidate Not Wanted.
Some of the brethren are clamoring
for candidate for two years hence
who will be able to unite the different
factions Of the republican party.
While we are not sure as to just what
they want we take it that they are
looking for sort Of au emulsion can
didate. In other words one who rep
resents a blend of water and oil. If
that is what is needed we may as
we'll give the democratic party
ninety-nin years lease for it will take
fully that long to wipe out the old
scores. If the 'houdah" is occupied
by anyone but the true-blue we may
as we'll commence to save our money
for another tombstone. Foley Inde-
pendent.
Republicans Are to Blame.
The republicans who voted for John
son and the democratic machine have
certainly given the whip hand to the
kitchen cabinet. johnson now has
good cause to think he is the whole
thing and has recommended one of his
democratic satellites, Supt. Olsen, for
the position of dean of the agricultural
school, vice E. ". Randall, who has
rendered his resignation to become
president of the Minnesota Mutual In
surance Co. At the expiration of the
term of S. W. Leavett it is predicted
that he will hold full hand of demo-
Gratis on the state board of control
and the next university president will
also wear the johnson tag if the
machine can make it work. The
democrats ale going "the whole hog"
and the republicans are the cause of
it.-Delano Eagle.
