candidate for reelection as Register

Republican ticket. AS Mr.. Palm
er is the only candidate that will
appeal to the range vote and as his
administrator of the office has been
such that it has not entered the
mind of any of his political faith
to oppose him, it is not at all prob
able that opposition will develop at
the coming election unless it NAV
come from the Democratic side.
There is one feature of Mr.. Pal
mer's incumbency of the Office
that will appeal to both parties and
that is, he has paid strict attention
to the affairs of the duties to which

to secure a county Office and it
would be but fitting to elect him
without opposition from either side

Did you ever have a fellow in

hustled around like a mailman

A few weeps from your wife and

These benighted persons persist in
eating onions and refuse to wear

A County Attorney who has

Mr. Norton is making this
campaign on the proposition that
he has made good. His opponent
is asking for the votes on the plea
that he came within FIVE votes of
winning last time. He is careful
to conceal the fact that he demand
eda recount, and it was then found
that in one precinct in Duluth
twenty-five Norton votes had been
counted for Adams, and ten Nor
ton votes had not been counted al
all. This made difference OF
sixty votes in Norton S favor. The
recount was never finished, and
no one knows what Norton's maj
ority actually was.
Mr. Norton S record of trials is
second to none in Minnesota. Ac-
cordlng to his promise, he has been
a prosecutor, and not a prosecutor

orously and successfully, but first
offenders have been dealt with
mercifully. Young men who
might have become criminals have
been made into good citizens. Mr..
Norton would rather make man
than a criminal any day in the
week. He now asks the support
of all voters who believe in a fail
and impartial administration OF
this Office. Remember, you are
taking no chances; the man who
has made good in the past will
make good in the future.

The orchard owner is chiefly inter.

amount of picked fruit free from

spraying was due to reducing the
amount Of wormy windfalis. or, in 9TH

that the fruit remained on the tree.
