Minnesota's normal Republican ma
jority is between 10000 and 10000.
The Democrats had little or no expec-
tation of electing Johnson. One reason
they picked him for the candidacy was
that he vas a Swede and would get
the Scandinavian vote, which in Min
nesota is a considerable factor. They
hoped he. at any rate, would make a
would have been satisfied with that.
But Johnson, having accepted the NOM
nation, made a systematic campaign.
His opponent, State Auditor Dunn.
was not altogether popular in his own
party. Dunn's unpopularity helped
Johnson. against whose record nobody
had anything to say. Johnson's popu-
larity increased as Dunn's decreased,
Something had to be done for Dunn.
Ter days before election some boom
erang thrower in Minnesota printed
and distributed n circular setting forth
that Candidate Johnson's father had
been a drunkard and had died in the
poorhouse and that his mother had
taken in washing. You cannot find in
Minnesota today the thrower of this
political boomerang. Most likely he is

THE LATE JOHN A. JOHNSON.

that its ~circulators had hoped. The
American manhood of Minnesota, the
same kind of American manhood that
had elected the rail splitter, Lincoln,
president, arose for Johnson. He was
elected, although the remainder of his
ticket was showed under by nearly
10000 majority. Not only so, but he
has been elected twice since, the only
Democrat chosen in his strongly Re
publican state. In 1900 Johnson was
the most prominent candidate for the
Democratic presidential nomination
second to Bryan.
Governor Johnson died as the result
Of the fourth operation for appendi-
citis, or, more correctly. the adhesions
resulting from former operations for
appendicitis. the first of which occurred
fifteen years ago. He was born in
Minnesota in 1861, the son of poor
Swedish immigrants.
The last notable utterance of Gov
'ernor Johnson was an appeal for the
west to stand together and look out
for its own interests. which President
a. iC6oA0t0 VI ouAiIAChl ttlDOtldlItt
to refer to in his Boston address, made
at the very time that Johnson was pre-
pariug to undergo the operation which
resulted in his death.
Nominated For Governor.
In 1904 the Democrats of Minnesota
nominated for governor a country edi-
tor, the st. Peter Herald man. John
johnson was a pretty good country ed
itor, too. but there were some 700 9TH
ers In Minnesota. st. Peter is a small
town, and the Herald is a small paper.
But 1t Is not necessarily true that a
small paper in a small town had a
small man at the head of it. Plenty
of instances to the contrary might be
cited, but Johnson's is enough. For
fifteen years Editor Johnson had run
the editorial end of the Herald, while
his partner, Henry Essler, had run the
mechanical end. Both took a hand at
the business end. Johnson became sec
rotary and then president of the state
editorial association. So the other edi-
tors knew him, and they liked him.
Johnson had served one term as a
state senator. and some of the poIiti-

were perturbed by this circular and
urged the candidate to make a strong
denial of the statements.

The reason he couldn't was that what

true. A st. Paul newspaper which

quickly went the rounds of the Mime

the corner groceries and the drug stores
and the country hotel offices, where
governors are made and presidents are

The st. Paul reporter discovered that
Gustaf Johnson. n blacksmith, had EN-
igrated from Sweden about fifty years
ago, settling in st. Peter. He had
been a heavy drinker in his native
land and came to America in the hope
that he might reform. He did reform
for a few years. He married Caroline
Haden. a Swedish girl, also an immi
grant. She was utterly alone in Amer
lea. The blacksmith installed her in a
two room house near st. Peter. For a
few years the brawny arms of Gustaf
Johnson earned a living for the wife
and the little ones who came. John be-
