Anoka Union: The Republicans in
several OF the congressional districts
in Minnesota had best take care who
they nominate for congress, or the
Democrats in the general election in
November will defeat the Republican
candidate.
Ortonvjlle Journal: A pledge on
the part of q candidate for congress to
not vote to re. elect Speaker Cannon
would seem almost supelfluous. Any
candidate for congress refusing to
declare his intentions to not do that
very thing is not worthy the position
he seeks.
Blue Earth Post: The situation
doesn't look quite SO fl0wery with our
English syndicate cousins who invest
ed 'eaps and 'eaps of of money in
Minneapolis milling stock. The
Americana put up good game of
freeze out at times.
Lyle Tribune: Harlan G.. Palmer of
LeRoy until recently editor of the
Independent at that place, has an
nounced himself to the voters OF this
district, as candidate for State Rep
resentative to the next legislature. Mr..
Palmer is clean cut young man Of
marked ability, with right views on
important issues that are today before
the American people.
Kasson Republicans: The country
publishers have usually taken a back
seat until 3 fter the party ticket was
chosen by a few politicians who pur,
ported to be the whole party, and then
they were invited to assist in making
the scheme success. The boys are
beginning to sit up and take notice, and
We miss our guess if they will not be
respected for it.
Red Wing Republican: There is no
more sense in the phenomenally high
prices reached by wheat lately than
there was in the low range that preced-
ed them. Both are to some extent the
result of fcarefuIlv manipulated condi-
tions. Neither is of any particular
interest except to the clique of pro.
fessional gamblers and such fools as
they may have been abba to induce to
engage in market deals.
Hayfeld TRANSCRIPT: A movement
is now under way for the organization
of a First District Republican Press
Association and meeting to which
all the republican editors of the dis
trict will be invited will undoubtedly
be held at some central point in the
near future. The object of such an
organization would be two-fold to ad
vance the cause Of republicanism and
to better further such interests as are
common to the members of the pro-
fessi0n.
Albert Lea Tribune: If the pernl-
cious idea that man must have served
years before be can weld any influence
were destroyed, every individual
would take the place where he belongs
within a few weeks after he entered on
his first term. We hear much of the
| influence the old members WELD in
congress, but the only foundation for
1t is that as soon a man has reached
a certain number of years service he
| becomes member of the national
legislature, and when he does that, it
is usually at the expense of his dis
trict and his constituents.
Pioneer Press: The present inferior
quality of most New Orleans molaeses
which has caused it to lose its popular.
ity with Northern palates, is not, as
was supposed, attributable to "dop.
ing" either with sulphur or other ma
terials, but to improved processes in
the manufacture of sugar. These
leave much less sugar in the molasses
/ which as every one knows is q by
I product of the sugar manufacture
than formerly, to the natural deterior
I alton of the mOlaseos.
/ Dodge Centre Star: It is notice
able fact that the people all over th,
First District are clamoring for a neg
4 Republican candidate. Not alone ar
they clamoring for one, hit they ar
dem anding one. This appears to b.
! the case all over the district. Th
voters say this must surely be or
democrat will soon occupy seat in th
halls of congress, designated for th
First district CannOnism never wa
very popular with the people Of Mime
!, sofa, and, although the people Of til
First district are slow to anger, ye
. they are tired OF the system now bein
carried on, and It. is now evident theI
d will be another candidate IN the fiel
5 ( for the nomlna alton to the Office Of col
Il. gressman.
