JACOBSON THE FARMERS
FRIEND.

A man who for six legislative
sessions was leader of the house
naturally has record which it
would take volume to tell about
in detail. This is true of Jacob
son, the Republican nominee tor
governor. Of his many accom-
plishments, however, one which
has which has been great and a
continual benefit to farmers
throughout the state is worthy OF
particular mention. During his
second legislative term he intro
G.ccd.~ and succeeded in getting
passed. in spite of bitter and de-
tsrn1ined opposition, what is gen
e. lily known as the open Mar
let Law
Prior to the passage of this law
al,c railroad companies leased the
G s.:ator privileges along their
siaat Of way to one or more Of the
la@ge elevator companies, and it
" impossible for other parties
70 zotain permits to erect ele-
vators Or warehouses thereon.
Consequently the grain buying
business passed almost entirely
into the hands of monopoly, and
stupendous fortunes were acct
mulated at the expense of the
grain producers. This bill per-
mits any one to go in upon the
right of way and erect an elevator
Or warehouse, and if the railroad
company refuses to grant a site
for such structure the same can
be secured by process of conden-
nation. It also makes all insti-
tutions buying grain public
warehouses" and subjects to state
inspection. Prior to the passage
of this law the margin upon
which grain was bought averaged
from 3 to 8 cents upon oats and
barley, 7 to 10 cents upon wheat
and corn, and from II to 20 cents
upon flax, but as a result of the
independent competition brought
about by its passage this margin
dropped to an average of 2 cents
per bushel and an annual saving
of from $3,5oo,ooo to 100000
was secured to the farmers and
consumers of this state. Other
states following the lead of this
state adopted similar legislation,
and the benefits resulting to the
small grain producers Of the en-
tire country from such action is
beyond computation.

FOR EyErY REPUBLICAN
TO CONSIDER.

It is UP to every Republican
this year to ask himself the ques-
ton, why should | not vote the
straight Republican ticket this
fall?'
That practically every Repub-
lican vote Will be cast for every
candidate up to governor, is con-
coded through the results Of cleo
tons for many years past. But
why should there be any question
about the vote for governor? A
governor, to be IDEAL, should, if
possible, be a man with all the
characteristics of an Abraham
Lincoln. The ideal candidate
should be man Of ability in
craftsmanship; a man whose in
tegrity is beyond question and
established by a past record: a
man who is or the side of the
people, yet who will without ia
vor see that justice is dealt out to
one and all; a man who cannot
be unduly Influenced and who has
the individual strength to stand
up, and successfully oppose any
pressure that may be brought
upon him to swerve him from the
straight and narrow path of duty.
Does not Jacob F. Jacobson
answer all these requirements?
Apparently he does. His ability
as a statesman was proved in six
legislative sessions, wherein he
was the acknowledged leader,
and gained the title of Father of
the House" AS to his integrity,
who dares question it? His rug
ged honesty is a trait that his
strongest political enemies freely
admit. Frank A. Day, the Demo
cratic state. chairman, in his own
paper, The Fairmont Sentinel,
said Of Jacobson "He is honest
and unpurchaseable. He was
never controlled for minute in
his life by the interests" And
this same Democratic leader told
but a plain truth when he also
wrote editorially. that 'The peo-
pie have confidence in Jake
| This confidence was established
in the public mind by Mr.. Jacob
sons actions, which always speak
louder and with more eloquence
than words: That Mr.. Jacobson
is man who stands for justice
to all, and has the Individual
strength of character to with
stand any influence or pressure
which might in the least swerve
such justice is proved by his mag
nifcent public career. This is
further assured in a statement he
made during his speech of accept
ance before the recent Republican
convention, when he showed his
Lincoln-like greatness by this
homely saying:
Il have come to the conclusion
that man who tries to do what's
absolutely right cannot go far
wrong

How to get strong.

P.J. DAILY, of 1247 w. Congress ST.,
Chicago, tells of way to become

is old and was very feeble, is deriving

that I feel it's my duty to tell those
who need tonic and strengthening
medicine about it, In my mothers

she is steadily growing stronger

A WIDE-AWAKE OFFICIAL,

Once more, through the vigil
ance Of Secretary Of State julius
A. Schmahl, the corporations
have been made to toe the line.
This time it is the railroads.
Mr.. Schmahl discovered that
nearly every railroad operating
IN the state had been violating
the law requiring licenses to be
taken out for ticket agents. Some
OF the roads had simply ignored
the law; others claimed not to
know of its existence. The rail-
roads themselves were the ones
to besiege the legislature to pass
the law in order to kill the ticket
scalpers. The legislature did as
asked. The law requires that
ticket agent must not only be
licensed, but must prove himself
an authorized representative OF a
common carrier. Mr.. Schmahl
intends that the railroads shall
wear the coat they asked to have
made for themselves. Mr..
Schmahl is the kind of an official
the people wart. There is no
question about the big majority
that should be rolled up for him
at his reelection the coming
November.

DAYS OPINION OF REPUB.
LICANS.

Frank A. Day, Democratic
state chairman. told the recent
state convention of his party, that
the Republican convention which
nominated ]. F. Jacobson, was
made up of "the worst gang Of
political freebooters that ever as
sembled.' When you think that
Frank Day owes his job OF the
past four years to Republican
votes, this is pretty ungrateful las
we'll as absolutely unfounded Ian
guage. The Republicans who
sat in this convention, doubtless,
especially appreciate Mr.. Days
language.

WHAT THE KIDNEYS DO
Their Unceasing Work Keeps Us
Strong and Healthy.

ALI the blood in the body passes
thru the kidneys once every three
minutes. The kidneys filter the blood
They work night and day. When
healthy they remove about 500 grains
of impure matter daily, when UNI
healthy some part of this impure mat
ter is left in the blood This brings
on many diseases and symptoms
pain in the back, headache, nervous
ness, hot, dry skin, rheumatism, govt,
gravel, disorders of the eyesight and
hearing, dizziness, irregular heart,
debility, drowsiness, dropsy, deposits
in the urine, etc. But if yoa keep the
filters right you will have no trouble
with your kidneys.
Mrs John Burns, Central part of
Graceville,M inn, says: "My exper-
fence with Doan's Kidney Pills has
been highly satisfactory and it gives
ME pleasure to endorse them as a
reliable remedy. My kidneys became
