have never missed a copy of your magazine;
have saved every one. AS you loved and SYM
pathized with Napoleon, so [ have loved and
synpathized with you. Ny father has always
been staunch friend of yours, so he trained
his willing son. I have little boy twelve
months old, who already likes to look at the
pictures in your magazine. I, too, hope to
train him in the way he should go politically
Ito follow Watson). I remember, when quite
a lad, my father sent me to the depot to bring
cut a preacher (who is now presiding elder)
to camp meeting. After arguing politics with
him in my boyish way he slapped me on
the back and laughingly said: 'Well, little
man, I admire your pluck, if we don It agree
en- politics."
AS / believed in you then, so I believe in
you now. My confidence IN you has never
faltered nor wavered and I often wonder how
one head and heart can contain it all-all
that's good, all that IS wise, all that's bril-
liant, and all that's just and right.
[ have a young friend seventeen years old
now In school, but follower Of Watson, and
stands there pat wherever you find him, Ny
young friend, Lloyd Hall, has high ideals, and
bids fair to reach high mark, and you may
always count on him as your friend and cham
pion.
I, too, am one Of the r. F. D. boys, and was
perplexed when I did not see your name
among the invited guests at the National Con-
vention. hope soon to see it proven clearly
why.

Veterans Oppose johnson,

The record of Governor John A.
Johnson, while a member of the state
senate, was the topic for discussion at
the Thursday evening meeting of the
John A. Logan regiment of Union
veterans at St. Paul. The following
resolution was adopted:
"Resolved, That the action of State
Senator (now Governor) Johnson in
voting against a reasonable law for
the patriotic and commendable cele-
bration of Memorial day, merits for
him in the present campaign the
earnest and active opposition of every
soldier of our state.
"Resolved, That this action of the
regiment be published in the papers
of the state.''
j. N. Rogers of Princeton is a men,
Der of the John A. Logan regiment of
Union veterans, and he says the
majority of the regiment is for Bryan,
but that not one member will vote for
Johnson.

VIM. COrdiner Still in tho Race.

To the Voters of Mile Laos County:
In consequence of an error in plac-
ing my name on the petition, such
error being the omission of mere
word, which was necessary to be in
serted in the petition in order to quail
ify under the statute,-my name has
been ruled off the official ballot by
the supreme court as a candidate for
Judge of Probate. Now, there re-
mains two ways by which my friends
can vote for me on election day-one
by writing in my name on the blank
provided on the general election bal
lot and the other by using sticker
with my name printed thereon, pro-
7ided, of course, a cross mark is
placed, in either instance, opposite
my name. The ruling of the supreme
court has placed me in a position
where I am compelled to ask the
voters to place my name on the ballot
as above stated, and I take this means
of thanking them in advance for the
courtesy. Very respectfully,
William Cordiner.
