The official count shows that
Sam Iverson ran like a scared
deer at the late election, receiv-
ing 94,438 majority over his dem
ocratic opponent for state audi
tor. Looks as though the peo-
pie had concluded they just
couldn't get along without Sam.
Next on the list comes that
prince of good fellows and fine
young business man, Walter J.
Smith of Eveleth with major
ity of 81, 542 for state treasurer.
Simpson for attorney general
ran close third with IS, 1873
majority. Notwithstanding the
fact that the allied brewery COM
bine rent their raiment to beat
Sam Gordon, and the additional
fact that Sam received little or
no help from the republican state
central committee, the able and
popular Browns Valley publish
er came under the wire with g.
491 plurality for lieutenant gov
ernor. julius Schmahl was re-
elected secretary of state with
61,048 plurality. Adolph Olson
Eberhart come in as tail ender
with a plurality of 60, 4O6 for

The political powers that be
in Minnesota have given it out
that Jacob A. 0. Preus will be
appointed to the Office of insur-
ance commissioner, to take effect
Jan. 2. In addition to his affable
manner and delightful personal
ity, Mr.. Preus is possessed of
fine business ability, which has
been evident ever since the death
of the late lamented John A..
Johnson, when he succeeded the
genial Harvey w. Grimmer as
executive clerk to the governor.
1t is also given out that Archi-
bald M. Hayes of Hastings will
succeed Mr.. Preus as executive
clerk. AS Mr.. Preus served U.
S. Senator Nelson as private
secretary, and as Mr.. Hayes
has been a committee clerk for
Mr.. Nelson at the national cap
ital, it looks as though Knute
had something to say about it.

that the Mississippi was seen by the
eyes Of a white man. Says Fiske:
Proof was already at hand that Flor

varez de Plneda had followed that
coast as far as the site Of Tampico, in
Mexico, where he found Cortes and
his men. Pineda then turned back and
after awhile entered the mouth of the
Mississippi, which he called Rio de

been the first European to sail upon

the hallway of the court house, where
he started to leave her. Seeing people

At the north door of the court house
he again told her that he was done
