Would Accept Ii Named.

= 1t was not until last week that the
Democratic leaders began the discus
sion of the political situation in Min
nesota, says the St. Paul Daily News.
So completely had Gov. Johnson's
death blasted their hopes that politics
was forgotten for the moment. Elimi-
mating Lind the Democratic chiefs
scanned the list of possibilities. Con.
W. S. Hammond they said.
But Cong. Hammond is in congress,
the only Democrat from Minnesota,
and he would hardly abandon the op-
portunity for reelection for a try at
T the governors chair. "Besides, said
the leaders, Eve need Hammond in
congress-
There were other men: J. S. Arm
son of the tax commission; Mayor D.
W. Lawler, ST. Paul, and Mayor
Haynes; Minneapolis; but the Demo-
cratic leaders hardly believed any Of
these men could defeat Gov. Eberhart,
Or the Republican nominee, whoever
he might be.
Canvass the situation as they might
the Democratic leaders could think OF
no available political Moses.
Then somebody mentioned the name
Of Fred W. Johnson Of New Uln. The
suggestion, it is said, took strong
root.
Should Fred W. Johnson consent to
enter politics he will not rest entirely
on the fame of his brother. The fact
that be is a brother of Gov. Johnson
would, of course, help in his political
career. The Democratic leaders be-
lieve that Fred W. johnson will make
a political success On his own merits.
Fred W. Johnson of the Dakota
House was very much surprised when
told by the Pioneer Press of St. Paul
that his name had been mentioned for
the head of the Democratic state ticket
in 1910. He at first considered it
joke, but was Immediately informed
- that in the best judgement of the lead
ing Democrats he was the one man in
the state best fitted by personal quail
fications, by name and by nationality
to lead the party to victory at the
next election. "Would you accept the
nomination and make an earnest fight
to win?' he was asked.
II certainly would. 1 would accept
any nomination that a great party saw
fit to bestow upon me and would fight
to the last ditch for the success Of the
ticket. 1t is so much Of surprise to
me that my name has even been con-
sidered that I can scarcely predict
just what would do if the nomination
:, were rendered me, but this do know,
that l would accept it. [ never knew
nomination to be refused and l
hardly think [ would care to stand
out as an exception"
eff you felt that the action of the
state Democratic convention were
doubtful but that you had reason
able show to secure the nomination,
would you go after it?"

not state positively at this time

Hanska Herald: Plans and specifi-
cations for the library and young peo-
ple's building have just been compile
ted by Christ Moe and bids have been
called for. It is estimated that the
building when completed, including
the site, will cost $4,000. In order to
complete the building about SO, 500 are
needed. OF this amount 50, 600 are al
ready provided for, so that the com
mittee needs to raise $1,000. The
Young Peoples Union already has a
library of some 1900 volumes, con-
tanning works of history, travel,
science, theology, philosophy and fc-
ton in the English, Scandinavian,
German, French, Latin, Greek and
Hebrew languages. In addition to
these lot of carefully selected chill
dren's books, magazines and periodl-
|cals have been collected. The plan is
to keep the reading room open at all
times and it will be provided with
suitable magazines and periodicals.
All will have access to the library on
exactly the same terms.

BISMARCK BREVlTlES.
Prospects for Chsutauqua Assembly
at Bismarck-Other Items.

The business men entertained the
committee Of the NJ. II. Church last
Thursday. They were driven to the
proposed site of the Chautauqua As
sembly grounds, which overlook the
extensive valley threaded with rail
roads. They pronounced as wonder
full the picturesque view of valley,
forest and mountain In rare and
unique combination, and said 1t was
delightful. The pure air and water,
invigorating, refreshing and balmy
breezcs, Us well as the highest alti-
tudr in this section of the State, to-
gethcr with the unusual and unex-
cclled railroad facilities, appealed
very stongly to the committee. No
other section in Southeast Missouri
offers anything approaching the
many superior advantages that Bis
marck does, and there seems to be
no question that the erection of the
tabernacle here is in the near fsa.

WAGES AND THE TARIFF.

The false pretense that the mono
poly tariff In this country is main
tanned In order that the American
workingman may be better paid than
the "pauper" laborer of Europe Is
discredited by the fact that In free
trade England wages are higher and
cost of living lower than in any
other country of Europe.
1t is not by accident that In free
trade England wages are some ~
per cent higher and cost of living
about the same percentage less than
in high-protection Germany. The
difference is due to economic causes,
chief of which Is the tariff In the
two countries.
The protected American manu-
facturer pays his operativesno more
than the labor market compels him
to pay. And In proportion az the
money wage In this country is
higher than In Europe the tariff in
creases the cost of everything that
the American workingman must
buy. The tariff with one hand takes
from the American workingman
everything 1t gives him with the
other. The Republic.

One BAD INNING
BEATS HARRINGTON
Four Errors and a Single Give Flat
River 8 Runs in Second Inning
Finnl Score to 8.

Pennington took strong team
out to Flat River last Sunday, one
that, individually, has the Flat River
bunch out-classed, but the hoodoo
was still on the job and Flat River
won, q to 3. Outside of the second
inning the team played good ball,
but in that dismal period every man
who got hold of the ball juggled 1t
awhile and then threw it away, and
when at last three Pirates had been
executed, Flat River had gathered
Ave big, juicy runs, all on one hit, n
single by Smetzer.
Blue, Moore, Herman and Dow
ney, who played this season with
the Macon, Mo-, team, were in the
game for Pennington. We under
stand that both Blue and Herman
have offers from fast company for
next season, and Blue will probably
go to the Southern League and Her
man to the Central Association.
There is no doubt whatever that
they will make good. They are
strong hitters, fast on the bases and
can field their position with the best.
They are probably the best players

| years, Moore also showed much
