Reorganization prior to a convention means
s1;sruption When there are rival organizations
in the party only one can win, and the others
are only useful to the opposition"
The above remark by Attorney General
Young should be taken to heart by every Re-
publican candidate and every friend of Re
puhlican candidate-not merely because it is
the kev-note to Republican success, but for the
important reason that the state will not tse-
cure the services of the best menAinI pubic
office if it is necessary to make long, disagree
able fights even for the nomination.

HE UNDERSTOOD

To bank in one of the smaller cities not a
thousand miles from here came old German
named Schmidt one day during the recent fin
ancial furry and demanded the money which
he had on deposit there. The cashier explain
ed to him that his money there all right
hut that instead of the money they would give
him clearing house paper which would serve
the purpose. Everything not seeming clear
in the MANS mind he repeated the explanation
and added that he hoped he and his neighbors
would be satisfied to do their part in keeping
the money where it was. After repeating it
third time he asked him to explain to his
neighbors, which the German promised to do.
Upon second thought the banker decided to
find out Just how the understood him and
asked him what he would tell his neighbors.

We are not against Ed. Youug's candidacy
for the Republican nomination for governor,
but still we find that outside of the ranks of the
politicians, many people prefer that he remain
in the position of attorney general, to fully
complete the great amount of important work
he now has on hand.
+ s t
good deal of fun is being poked at the
"harmony" talk made in the interest of every
who is mentioned Republican candi-
didate for governor in Minnesota. It develops
that nearly every man mentioned is one who
has taken leading part i'll the old party'fghts.
Among those named harmony candidates
are Capt. Van SAINT, Judge Collins, Bob Dunn
and J. F. Jacobson. Every one of themNhas
been leader in some hard party scraps. While
they doubtless all want harmony, there will
certainly be good fight when they all enter

BIG FEE RECEIPTS
SECRETARY OF STATES REVENUE
 WAS a15.O19.4O.
This is Nearly Treble the Receipts of Two Years Ago and the Work Has Grown in PrODOr-
 ffOn

Demonstrating the remarkable in- crease in the work which devolved on the office of Secretary of State during the year ended September S0th. 1t was announced Thursday bv Chief Clerk Cyrus B. Brown that the total receipts for the twelve months were S15.01S.4O. This Is an increase of &5.525.2a over 1906-07.
 Later Mir. Brown will issue an item ized statement showing the sources of revenue for this deDartment
 The receipts last year were almost treble the amount received two wear ago This is taken as an indication that the work achieved by the clerical force of the Secretary of State Frank N. Julian, which is to say Chief Clerk Brown, has also about trebled.
 The receipts of this office which are separate from the accounting of the Department of Insurance although Sec retary of State Julian is ex-officio Com missioner of Insurance, consist mostly of fees. corporation licenses. the pro- ceeds from the sale of State Codes. Acts of the Legislature, and other State doc- uments.
 It Is noted that during the past three months the sales of the Alabama Code' consisting of three volumes have been rather light. The receipts from tnis source in this period amounted to only $570. l.,
 One explanation of the increase in work of the department is that the Legislature at the last sesson passed an act requiring all foreign corporations to take out license. which. or course is also responsible for some or the jump in the receipts cta+o
