fought at every turn by the inter-
ests, in particular the brewery COM
bination. But tho at times appar-
emily defeated. he yet plods along
and the confidence the people have
in him will some time assert itself
and again place him in some pos
ition where he can accomplish
some thing more definite than mere
agitation.
In Iowa. Cummings and Deliver
have for years fought the great
railroad combine which has control
led the state politics. These. to-
gether with La Toilette, are bril-
liant examples of what men can do
against great odds when they so de-:
sire. Cummings has issued call
for an independent national conven-
ton to be held in Kansas. 1t is
suspected that when these great
. leaders get together the final RESULT
will he the formation of a new in
dependent party, National in scope.
In every state where there has
been struggle for a time the peo-
pie have come to the inevitable con-
clusion that the two dominant par
ties, such as at present constituted,
are managed by the same force.
In some states it may be the
brewery interest that hold the whip
and in others it may be the Steel
, Trust and in others it may be the
! railroads.
In other places these factors to-
gether with others have joined for
ces and agree on the division of the
booty. Perhaps Minnesota is an
example of the last named condi-
tion. Here the railroad interests,
the Steel Trust, the public service
corporations of the cities, the In
ternational Harvester Company, all
have joined forces and together
with the brewing interests trade off
the righs of the people. 1t matters
very little to which Of the two pol
itical parties legislator belongs.
They control men in both. For
this very reason men who have

NO RETREAT POSSIBLE WITHOUT DlSHONOR.

But the time is short and soon it
may be too late. If the committee
fails to act and throws back the re-
sponsibility for so doing upon the
League, the odium for inaction will
fall upon the League, and it will
prove a serious blow to the useful
ness of the League.
If no action towards securing an
independent state ticket can be Sc
cured, the League, as an "omni-
partisan" organization, has the al
tentative of making official endorse
ment OF a composite ticket, made
up of such men from the tickets al
ready nominated as are undoubted
champions of county option and
what that issue stands for. The
name of Heiberg, the prohibition
candidate for governor will be on
the official ballot. He is a staunch
and true temperance man who has
demonstrated his devotion to the
cause time and again by sacrifice of
personal interests for the principles
he loves. Why not endorse him?
Then, if thot best, give Sam
Gordon of the Republican ticket
the endorsement for lieutenant
governor, and Tom Meighen on the
Democratic ticket the endorsement
for state auditor, etc. Then take
steps to inform the people about the
ticket, and then the voters who wish
to endorse county option could dc
so by casting their ballots in unison
for those men. The result would
have a more potent influence or
the future course of political par.
ties than anything else that could
be done.
"United we stand, divided We
fall" The enemies of county op
tion know enough to pick their me1
from different parties. They care
not what the label is if they car
. depend on their men to do thu
work. The temperance people
, should be as wise. Let them gel
; together this fall and accomplish
} something. The hostile attitud,
of both old parties has paved thu
way for united action Of the tenn
perance people, both prohibition
lists and county optionists. Let u
not fritter away this golden oppor
tunity.
Willmar tribune. [volume] (Willmar, Minn.) 1895-1931, 1910-08-10

Parties connected with the Anti
Saloon League urge that the
Leagues position as an omni-parti-
san organization prevents it from
taking the initiative in the matter
of nominating or making up sat-
isfactory ticket for the county op-
tionists to vote in Minnesota this
fall. Its Office, they claim. is SIM
ply to influence nominations within
or to choose between the candidates
already nominated by regularly con-
stituted political parties.
But they forget that the League
has already taken the initiative and
assumed a position before the peo-
pie of Minnesota from which it can
not retreat without stultifying it.
self.
Last spring the League called a
county option convention. The call
met with response unparalleled in
the history of Minnesota politics.
Delegates crowded in from all parts
of the state in numbers beyond the
expectations of the most enthusiast
tic friend of sobriety and good
government. This convention adopt
ed resolutions and provided a state
committee with definite instruc-
tions to guard the interests of the
county option cause.
This permanent organization in
reality constituted a new force in
Minnesota politics and relieved the
Anti-Saloon League from further
necessity for taking the initiative ir
political action. 1t is on this com.
mittee the responsibility now rests
for such action as will give the
people of Minnesota a chance t
vote for county option. If the
committee. fails to act, it has be-
trayed its trust. The county op
tion adherents everywhere in Min
nesota are anxiously awaiting thu
report of their committee. Why
denounce legislators for smotherinl
reports, if the county option leader
themselves get cold feet and fail tt
carry out their trusts? We sin
cerely hope that the committee is a
work, that it has formulated ;
plan of action but is awaiting de
velopments and as yet has deemed
it unwise to publish the plans

Dear SIR
Being convinced by the record of
James A. Tawney IN Congress that
he is favorable to the methods and
practices generally known as
"Cannonism' and that his election
as Speaker of the House of Repre-
sentatives would tend to continue
those methods and practices in Con-
gress and would be detrimental to
the reforms desired by the majority
of the Republicans of the Sew
enth Congressional District, we be-
lieve it proper to submit to you
the following question and request
an early answer to it:
In the event that James A. Taw-
ney is a member of the next Con-
gress and should be a candidate
for Speaker of the House of Re-
representatives., will you vote for or
against him?
