STRONG MEN. NAMED.

Duluth Herald: Three notabl,
appointments we're made by Governor
johnson yesterday Men were nance
for important state Offices who hav,
had much to do with the making Of
Minnesota, men whose ability ano
high character make their enlistment
IN the state s service matter for state
wide congratulation. -.:->-.
j. G. Armson, prominently named
for governor last year, mayor of Still.
water and for years re. elected to that
position by the practically unanimous
vote of the city, is Governor Johnson I
choice as a member of the state tai
commission to succeed Franklin l..
McVey, who has resigned to become
president of the University of NORTH
Dakota. Mr.. Armson has never been
a seeker after public Office, but his
conspicuous abilities have made him
one Of Minnesota's most prominent
citizens for many years, and his selec.
ton as a member of the state tax com
mission will be hailed by the people
OF the state, irrespective of party, as
a noteworthy instance Of the appoint
ment of q man conspicuously fitted for
the position.
For the position of member OF the
board OF control Governor johnson has
named Charles E. Vasaly of Little
Falls. Mr.. Vasaly is proprietor OF
the Little Falls Herald and has for
many years been a well. known figure
in Northern Minnesota. He is man
OF fine character, proved abilities, long
time a champion OF good government
and zealot in the cause Of Minnesota.
Mr.. Vasaly has long been an ardent
supporter of Bryan and was particular
~ active in his behalf a year ago As
in the case of his appointments, how
ever, the governor seeks first of all to
secure men of merit, and in Mr.. Vasaly
he recognizes man who will prove
most valuable servant to the state as
a member of the board of control.
The appointment of Martin Hughes
of Hlbbing as the fourth Judge of the
Eveleth judicial district is recognition
OF one of the ablest members OF the
bar of the district. So conspicuous
have Mr.. Hughes qualifications been
that he was the spontaneous choice of
the bar and the people of the ranges,
and his appointment is deserved
both of the man and of
the needs of the locality from which
he IL chosen.
1t Is such appointments as these.
such conspicuous choice of the best
men, that make Governor johnson
strong with the people. They know
that he can be depended upon to do
the right thing at the right time. In
the character of the men who hold
public Office, the welfare Of the state
Is more at stake than in the laws that
are biennially made for its govern
ment. So long as It. can command tho
of its best men, no state can
be far wrong. . + y

GOV. JOHNsON'S WISE CHOICE.

GOV. JOHNSON'S WISE CHOICE.
Union Advocate: Chas. e. Vasaly
OF Little Falls, editor of the Herald Of
that city, has recently been appointed
a member of the state board Of control
bv Gov. johnson. This is one Of the
best appointments his excellency has
made during his long tenure Of the
Office he holds. Mr.. Vasaly. some
wears ago, worked IN the Pioneer
Press Job Office and is we'll known in
this city, where his ability, indepen-
dence and sterling worth are held IN
high esteem. He was long an active
member of st. Paul Typographical
union and still holds his membership
in one of the unions of the craft.
When the annual convention of the
State Federation of Labor met in
Little Falls he was mayor of the city
and by his interest in the assembly
and his valued contributions to the
enjoyment of its proceedings won
golden opinions from everybody and
greatly endeared himself to the
delegates. We commend his appoint
ment on the board of control from

St. Peter Herald: Governor John A.
johnson has appointed Editor Chas. E.
Vasaly of the Little Falls Herald as
member of the state board of control,
naming him In place OF Silas W.
Leavitt of Lltchfeld. The latter
originally was appointed as a demo-
crat, but in recent years his sympathles
have been with the republican party
and he has made himself exceedingly
obnoxious to the present state ad-
m1nistratlon. After the defeat of the
man from whom he expected re-
appointment. Leavltt caused petit
ton to be circulated in the state senate
asking Governor johnson to continue
him in Office. This was disregarded
by the chief executive, but it is not
improbable that Leavltt's supporters
IN the senate will oppose the con-
tirmation of MI. Vasaly. The latter
IS one of Minnesota's ablest county
editors, has served rs q member Of
the state board of equalization and is
we'll equipped for his new position.

Brainerd Dispatch: While the ques-
ton of good politics is questioned by
his appointment of Chas E. Vasaly,
of Little Falls, to the state board of
control, there are none who question
his good judgment in selecting a man
fully capable OF filling the position.
The term is for SIX years and the
salary is $3, 500 per year. Mr.. Vasaly's
newspaper friends In all parts of the
state, irrespective Of politics., will

Cass Lake Times: Governor John
sol, last week appointed J. D. Armson
of Saltwater to head the Minnesota
tax commission and at the same time
appointed G. E. Vasaly of Little
Falls as a member of the board of con-
troll In place of s. w. Leavitt, whose
term Of office has expired. Both are
excellent appointments and the only
objection that can be raised against
either is that he is democrat. The
appointment of such men by the
executive will never jeopardize his
asp11 ations for the position he has so
ably held for two terms.
Wadena Pioneer Journal: 1t is
quite likely that a rumor connecting
the name of C. E. Vasaly. the Little
Falls editor, with a vacancy on the
state board of control, will materlalize.
The governor undoubtedly will name
a democrat for this important posi-.
ton, and such being the case he can
suit the Pioneer Journal no better than
by appointing our democrat brother at
Little Falls. He is thoroughly com
petent, nenest and loyal, and the
board of control would lose no prestige
or dignity if men like Mr.. Vasaly
were connected with it.

A VERY COMMON
ECONOMIC ERROR

For many years 1t has been the Gus
tom OF Southern farmers to make
their crop upon the advance system
and while this has been regarded Is
an economic error en- the side OF the
farmer, by many merchants 1t mas
been thought that it was very prof.
table way Of buying cotton.
The farmer realized tina, as mat
ter Of safety =, was better to make
the food consumed by his family ana
his stock upon the farm rather than
to purchase 1t and especially when
he had to promise payment out OF a
crop which had not as yet been made:

cuontry life in the South for many
years and have come to the con-
clusion that the advance system IL
