If man cannot be trusted to
stay by and protect his wife and
child, is he to be trusted to protect
the interests of his constituents in
a position of political honor?
Recommendation range pays eighty
per cent of the taxes of St. Louis
county and gets one county office
out of nine. The ranges for range
candidates should be the sio@. an on
Primary Election Day.
THE man who votes for N. c.
Palmer for Register of Deeds will
be voting for one of the most eff
cient and most courteous officials
ever elected in St. Louis county.
And the voters of the county will
not overlook this fact on Tuesday
next.
D. E. CUPPERNULL alleges that
the Hon. J. Adam Bede promised
him a post-office appointment for
his support in a former campaign.
Has Clarence &. Miller made Mr..
Cuppernul' the same promise in
order to acquire his support in the
present contest?
THE government expert gives it
out that SO per cent of all alleged
whiskey sold and handled in this
country is not whiskey at all. But
the stuff performs it's mission of
making widows and orphans and
desolate homes and peopling our
almshouses, prisons and insane
asy'ums jnst as we'll, perhaps, as
would real whiskey.
VIRGINIA knows from experience
the necessity of tempering the
wind to the shorn lamb, and did
her part nobly in the work of re-
lief for the Chisholm fire sufferers
despite the fact that the Duluth
News Tribune peristentIy forgot to
make mention of the fact for several
days after the first carload of sup.
plies had been received from this
city in the fire stricken town.
The EVELETH STAR hands the Du-
luth News Tribune a deserved one
relating to the sending of a young
woman to interview the saloon.
keeper and the gambling element
of the rougher range communities
on matters political in the Miller
Bede fight. But what better might
be expected from the management
of that paper. 1t is in keeping with
the tactics of the paper in every
campaign in the history of the
range.
W. J. BATES says he is going to
win that nomination, hands down.
Others there are who say John r.
Meining has him beaten to frazzle
and still others who contend that
Sam Owens has a look-in at the
shrievalty. The ranges hold the
balance of power, and after range
voters have named their choice the
respective candidates can take their
bearings and figure out which way
the blow has been aimed all this
time.
THE Clark mine deal is still fresh
in the minds Of men, and the voters
of the county will see that Mr.. A. E.
Pfremmer holds down the office of
Judge of probate after January next.
He is honest and capable. and is en-
titled to the vote of every man in
St. Louis couuty-Judge Middlecoff
not excepted. Put a Gross after the
ma me e>of 4. E. Pfrehiher, and yo,r
will have done your duty by the
widows and orphans of St. Louis
county.
N. G. PALMER. who is seeking re-
nomination and election to the office
of register of deeds, can feel sure of
election. His opponents, Walter
Butchart and Lundberg, will not
cut such a wide swath as some NAV
think. Butchart, while worthy
young man, is not we'll enough
known to be in it, and Lundberg is
too we'll known to be in it. Lund-
berg, while voter, was always a
Democrat. and now that he wants
office is a Republican. Ask the
Democratic powers if you don't be-
