Up to the time of writing this,
Congressman Volstead has not re-
piled to the inquiry sent to him by
the Lac Qui Parle county people as
to whether or not he would vote
for James E. Tawney for speaker
if he should be the choice of the
standpat forces. Probably he does
not care to be "heckled" in the
first place and then every day of de-
lay makes it less probable that any
one will be found that cares to con-
test the nomination with him. 1t
is almost incredible that there is
not within this great district one
progressive republican who has am
billions to go to congress. A true
insurgent would find fruitful field
in this district at this time.

the quietest one in this county since

IT'S YOUR KIDNEYS
Don't Mistake the Cause of Your
Troubles.

Many people never suspect their
kidneys. If suffering from lame,
weak or aching back they think
that it is only a muscular weakness;
when urinary trouble sets in they
think it will soon correct itself.
And so it is with all the other
symptoms of kidney disorders.
That is just where the danger lies.
You must cure these troubles or
they may lead to diabetes or
Bright's disease. The best remedy
to use is Doan's Kidney Pills.
1t cures all ills which are caused by
weak or diseased kidneys. Resi-
dents of this vicinity are constantly
testifying to permanent cures.

The true insurgent in politics is
one that "insurges' up to the time
Of the election and demonstrates by
his actions that his talk is not mere
demagogy. What else would you
call the actions of so many of our
public men who talk so valiantly
about the ''people's rights be-
tween elections for the purpose of
making a good impression on the
public but who always line up with
the interests on election day?

Will John Lind honor the draft
of the Democratic party of Mime
sofa? He returned to Seattle last
Saturday. but only reiterated his
former resolve not to run for gov
ernor and then left for an obscure
summer resort in the woods for the

lieve that when he arrives home in
September he may revise his an

D Official copy Of the Prohibition
Platform. adopted at Minneapolis,
Mimi, July l. 1910:
Preamble. .. # &

We, the prohibitionists of the
state of Minnesota. in Convention
assembled this first day of July, as
sert our belief in God as the author
of all just law and government.
We hold in derision the liquor IL
cense laws now on our statute books
which assume that a citizen may
purchase of his equal a right which
the same law implies and the courts
have asserted that no one possesses.
We demand their repeal. VIII
We invite to fellowship all men
on the following principles.
l.. We maintain that the prohi-
bition of the manufacture and sale
of Intoxicating drinks is the plain
duty of State and National Govern
ments and that any political party
that. has been in power and has
failed to perform this duty is I'M
worthy of the confidence and sup
port of patriotic people.
2. We favor legislation granting
the option to vote the saloon out by
counties. We have never supported
candidate for the legislature who
failed either before or after elec-
tion to stand squarely for all such
legislation record unrivalled by
any other organization.
3. We arraign the Republican
and Democratic parties which for
a quarter of a century have upheld
the statutes under which the sale
of liquor has increased three times
as fast as the population; has stead.
lily and viciously resisted the eff.
orts of the people to secure the
right to protect their homes against
the traffic either by constitutions
prohibition or by county units
which brutally applied "gag law
in the last legislative session t,

county option bill, and which in it
last state convention again demon
strated its despotic disposition ant

by its arrogant refusal to pledge t.

known as County Optionists, a fai
consideration of their measure.
4. We favor comprehensive an

while safeguarding timber, stone

from the greed of thieving money
r kings. gives no protection to on
r boys and girls from the gluttonou
rapacity of the saloon.
5. We demand the immediate ov
: er throw of the unspeakable tra1
fic in girls, which fourishes unde
: official tolerance and practical Ii
, cense; and we point with gratifics
tion to the remedial legislation sc

of E. E. Loheck, prohibition legis

THE BROAD VIEW.

HOW natural IL is TOR the average
man to take a one-sided view of
things in general. For instance
politically many can see nothing
but the liquor question and bend
their every energy to the settle
ment Of that vexing problem. 9th
ers see nothing but the tariff and
perhaps for some that is the most
important thing, especially for
the manufacturer who takes advan-
tage of that to build up his bust
ness at the expense of others. In
this state we have besides county
option, the question of railroad
rates, the tonnage tax, reappor-
tionment, and many others equally
important, that must be given care
full consideration. We should all
try to cultivate a broader vision
and especially be more considerate
of the opinions of others because
sometimes others are right and we
are wrong .-Breckenridge Tele-
gram.
While Bro. James may be right
in a certain sense in the above, still
most elections are fought on some
test issue, and at the present time
there is nothing that will take the
place Of county option as THE
TEST ISSUE no matter how much
the politicians may try to have it
otherwise. The brewers hold the
key to the political power of the
interests in this state. In the
legislature the liquor interests, the
steel trust, the railroads, the dual
political office trust and other seek
ers of special privileges combine
their forces in order to secure the
necessary working majority" but
the brewery combine is the only in.
terest with a highly developed po'
litical machine in all parts Of the
state. At the same time that it il
the most indispensable part Of the
"system,' it is also the most vul.
nerable spot in this unholy alliance.
Let the people rise in their might
and down the liquor interests anc
they will find that in most case!
the men who can be depended upo1
to stand up and fight the liquor in
terests will also give the people :
square deal on the tonnage tax
railroad regulation and those Other
questions. But at the present time
none Of these other questions Cal
furnish the test question, and il
the campaign be divided up on al
the issues the combination will
merge from the fight without :
dent in its armor.
Insisting upon county option
first, last and all the time, is not ;
narrow view of the present situa
tion, but, on the other hand, is thu
broadcast view possible for all wht
are interested in bringing abou
political reform in this state.
