QUESTION OF MAJORITY.

a VOGSxxON OTr 116OOktxxxs
An excellent republican state COM
mittee was appointed by John Fl.
Steele, chairman of the recent re-
spublican state convention, last Satur-
day. A. D: Brown Of Madison, the
man who: so successfully managed
Mr.. Jacobson's campaign, heads the
committed. MIR. Brown will be no
mere fgure-head. He will devote his
entire time from now until the polls
close to the success of the republican
ticket. Although he is new star
in the political armament he has a
wide acquaintance throughout the
state and is endowed with large fund
of common sense. He is Mr.. Jacob
sons personal friend and he has the
confidence of every candidate on the
ticket. James A. Martin will be secre-
tary of the committee and he will be
of valuable assistance to Mr.. Brown.
On the whole it is splendid CON-
mittee. The party is united, every
candidate on the ticket is vote-getter
and there can be no question of the
result at the polls. In fact. we be-
lieve Mr.. jacobson and his colleagues
would be elected if there we're no state
committee. It has been repeatedly
stated that if MIR. Jacobson could
only run the gauntlet of the state
convention his election would follow
as matter of course. He was NOM
mated by reclamation without any
organization behind him and without
the expenditure of a dollar of money,
and no man whom the democrats may
name can come within $4,000 votes
of defeating him. However, it is well
to have good state committee to
look after the interests of the party
generally, but as far as J. F. Jacob
son is concerned it is only question
of the size of his majority.

A hundred wealthy lumbermen will

A hundred wealthy lumbermen with
Weyerhauser at their head have or
ganized for the purpose of merging
their interests into $500, 200, 900 trust,
says a press dispatch. Despite the
antitrust laws of this country combi-
nations in restraint of trade continue
to be formed and they seem to expert
ence but little difficulty in carrying on
their unlawful operations. The dis
solution of trusts is apparently the
most difficult problem with which the
department of justice is confronted.

Some of the protested republican
papers show unmistakable signs OF
soreness because their particular
choice was not nominated for COVER
nor. These are the kind of papers that
assist in electing democratic COVER
nors, and ID calling themselves repub-
lican are sailing under false colors.

nor. Joel got upon the top of his big
barn and yelled: "The Brewery inter.

honest nomination for Office it was
Jake Jacobson and it ill becomes any
defeated candidate to throw clubs at
him. Jake will be elected. The people
have confidence in him and will stand
by him at the election. He is a win
ner, and Joel might just as we'll look
pleasant about it.. The common
people have taken up Jake Jacobson,
and we all know what that means

Remarkable progress is being made
in the perfection of the airship. One
attainment is that machines can be
navigated against the wind current
and the steering gear has been so i'm
proved that the airship is almost as
easy to control as an automobile.
Those who live fifty years from now
will in all probability see airship

railroads for patronage.

One r. P. Hobson, a so-called
naval constructor, appeared before
the Denver convention and consumed
much of it's valuable time in an
attempt to prove that the country is
on the verge of war and needs more
battleships. He was Kissed until he
left the hall, but he should have been
rolled in the snowbank outside, then
placed on handcar and compelled to
pump his way to the next town.

Mills was Fairly Nominated.

Some Of our exchanges seem in
clined to discredit the nomination of
Mr.. Mills for railroad and wareho use
commissioner. Mills received his
nomination at the hands of the re-
publican party Just as fairly and
squarely as. any other gentleman
nominated and he, is just as much
entitled to the united support of the
party as is any other of the men
nominated. By united support the
ticket can be and will be elected, with
