POLITICAL ANNOUNCEMENTS
Candidate for
County Auditor.

To the Voters of Brown County,
Two years ago I promised parties
"that are after county Offices them
selves this year and to others" that I
would not be a candidate again for
reelection, but the activity of my
friends, urging me to continue to serve
the public embarrassed me somewhat,
SO [ am obliged to change my attitude
in politics and submit to tue will of
these friends that have expressed a
friendliness for me or an interest in
my success, and therefore announce
myself for reelection to the Office OF
County Auditor I have had the honor
to serve the good people of this
County.
I feel proud of having enjoyed the
good will and confidence of the pub.
lie, and will furthermore say, that
if am again gifted with reelection to
the Office, my ambition will be to con:
duct the affairs of the County in the
auditors Office as heretofore, for my
past record as your servant speaks
for itself. Respectfully,

Initiative and Referendum.

s. . 800
What does it mean2 By the initia-
tive We mean that at any time when a
demand is made for law or measure
q petition may be circulated calling for
this, and if signed by the requisite
percentage OF voters generally five
or ten per cent then the proposed
measure must go before the legislature
or be directly presented to the people
for enactment.
In this way the people will at all
times be able to make their PROPOSE
lions and begin the process of law
making.
The referendum: After the proposal
OF a measure has been made through
the initiative by the requisite
number of votes, this measure is
submitted to ali the voters for act
ion. If majority vote in favor of
the proposed measure, then it becomes
a law. If a majority vote against it,
then it fails.
If at any time the legislature enacts
a bad law the people may call for a
vote on it by all the electors for rejec-
ton or acceptance. This is called the
referendum. It simply means to refer
to the people. The original meaning
of the word is lit ought to be re-
ferred''.
In face of all the corruption and
vicious legislation and in face of the
absolute refusal on the part of the
legislatures to enact some very nece S.
sary measures into law, the people
have begun to clamor for this instru.
ment Of protection and power.
Under present conditions the legis-
latures and courts rule, not govern,
the people. In democratic country
the people must govern themselves.
The people must become the Iegisla
ture.
/ What an easy matter for the inte-
reststo buy up small group of le-
Igislators; how difficult, on the other
hand, to defeat all the people at the
polls.
Therefore, as step in the right
Edirection the initiative, referendum
and recall are not only important but
essential to democratic and popular
government.

Elizabeth ToWne stands for that
which makes for greater happiness, =
writes Thomas Dreier IN Human Life
for October.
aShe reaches certain class OF
people. In her own field she is as
| great as Mrs. Eddy is in hers. Eliza
beth Towne teaches folks to think COR
rectly, to understand and use wisely
their own forces, to conquer doubt and
fear, and to stand up as fearless, in
dependent, efficient.
"She worships before action. She
wants things done. She is no mere
talker and writer one content to
preach and never practice. Her own
business, which started twelve years
ago with thirty borrowed dollars and
which today enables her to crafty her
temperamenta desire for a fine home,
trips to Europe and through this
country, clothes that appeal to the
feminine nature well, that is the hes
proof that her teachings are practi-
cal. That she is helping others live
richer lives is something anyone may
learn from a single days correspon-
dence. One letter came in telling Of a
brakeman who had his legs cut off in
a wreck. He cannot live, the doc
tors whispered. by God, I will he
said. He told later that he had been
reading Elizabeth Towne's writings,
and had been taught to fight against
adversely. He lived.
Her editorials are homely things.
They are not what a Harvard profess
or OF English would offer to his class
as models of literature. But what is
more important than literary style is
found in them. They contain mes
sages that to use Westernism, get
across"

No Action for Roosevelt.

The Pennsylvania Sugar Refining
Company, independent, had been
wrecked by a conspiracy of the Sugar
Trust when George Fl. Earle, the Phi
.ladelphia lawyer and fnancier, was
made its receiver. Mr.. Earle gathered
documentary evidence of that conspi-
racy, as well as proof of the sugar
weighing frauds which the trust was
perpetrating upon the United States
customs, and communicated the facts
by letter to President Roosevelt in the
fall of 1906.
Again and again Receiver Earle, as
an officer of the Federal Court, APP
pealed to the President to look at the
evidence. He could get no action.
He requested that a criminal prosecu-
tion--which, under the Sherm an Anti
Trust law, the President has power to
lnstitute-should be brought against
the man who had wrecked the indepen-
dent refinery.
The result was the same. The
Knight case, which Mr.. Roosevelt now
condemns as product of the floss
ilized minds of the Justices of the
United States Supreme Court, was
raised by him and his Attorney.
General, Mr.. Bonaparte, as an insur-
mountable bar to prosecution.
Mr.. Earle proceeded without the
Roosevelt Administration assis-
lance, in a civil suit under the Sher-
man law. Judge Holt dismissed his
complaint. Mr.. Earle appealed, and
before the United States Circuit Court
of Appeals personally assisted his
counsel in arguing against the Knight
case The Circuit Court reversed
Judge aolt and sent the receiver s
suit back to the Federal District Court
for trial. There, when the evidence OF
conspiracy-the same evidence which
Mr.. Earle says Roosevelt would not
look at - had been presented, the
trust confesses the guilt by settling for
between two AND three million dollars
damages.

Pie Crust Platforms.

Henry Clews, a noted Republican
banker, in an address delivered at
fremont Temple, Boston, said:
s'But there IS no good reason why
the Government should go into the
banking business, and the pledge in
the republican Presidential platform
that postal savings banks would be
esta blished, should not be regarded
as any more binding than such ante
election promises usually are. We
all know they are generally ignored
afterwards, and often made, like pie
crust, to be broken

Awkward.

Admirers of Col. Roosevelt will
wish that either Mrs. Bethany Storer
hadn't exhumed the half-forgotten
Storer incident, or that the Colonel
would concede fuller explanations than
he has yet made.
AS they stand, the letters produced
by Mrs. Storer establish prima facie
case that the Colonel can scarcely
afford to leave as it is.
The Storers, it may be remembered,
claimed that they had been COM
missioned by Roosevelt, then Presi-
dent, to speak in his behalf at the
Vatican, and to urge that Archbishop
Ireland be made cardinal. Whether
or not they were authorized, they did
speak in his behalf, but the appoint
ment was not made. When the in
cident became public, Mr.. Roosevelt
denied that he had authorized the
Storers to speak r him, followed
promptly Storer's expulsion from the
diplomatic corps and his precipitate
propulsion into the Ananias club, of
which he was one of the charter mem
bers.
Why the Storers have allowed the.
matter to rest SO long, and why they
bring it up again at this particular
moment, and why their belated bomb
shell burst just as Roosevelt was
working to gain control of the New
York Republican organization, are
matters that are not clear.
Nevertheless, the correspondence
disclosed by them is important, be-
cause it leaves the controversy no
longer an issue of veracity between
the ex-president and the Storers. No
less a parsonage than Archbishop
Ireland himself is dragged into the
controversy and made to appear as
sustaining the claims of the Storers
that Roosevelt authorized them to
speak for him and that his subsequent
Reputation of that authorization
qualified him for the presidency of his
own Ananias club.
According to this correspondence, a
month after the Storers and Roosevelt
had conferred at Oyster Bay the arch
bishop wrote:
st. Paul, Oct. %, 1908.
My Dear Mrs. Storer:
was in Washington last week and,
of course, saw the president.
The president also told me that he had
commissioned Mr.. Storer to speak for
HIM viva voce at the Vatican. He
seemed rather proud of having done
50, x
JOHN IRELAND.
There is room for explain alton. The
case at it's present stage is no such
crushing proof of Roosevelt's un-
truthfulness in this matter as his bitter
enemies are making out. There is.no
proof, for instance, that the matter
regarding which Archbishop Ireland
said Roosevelt had commissioned
Storer to speak for him at the Vatican
was the matter involved in the con-
troversy.
Nevertheless, as the case stands, the
preponderance of the evidence is in
favor of the Storers, and against the
ex-president.
| It isn't comforta bic to see it stand
ing that way. We do not wish to be-
lieve that Roosevelt ever did such
thing Or is capable of doing it. The
case should be held open for further
testimony from him.-Duluth Herald.

Human Life for October, 1910.

With the advent of Autumn come
the long evenings, when a really good
magazine adds immeasurably to the
happiness and well-being of the whole
family. Human Life is the good old
English roast beef of the magazine
menu-a substantial meal in itself. 1t
deals with living men and women,
whose lives and acts are American
history in the making. Parents do
themselves and their growing boys
and girls a wrong who omit it from
the evening circle.
The October issue is a tempting one.
In the opening article Frederic W.
Coburn tells the fascinating story of
one of Americas greatest Captains OF
Industry Theodore N. Vail, whose
strong hand guides the destinies OF
that gigantic rganization, the Ameri-
can Telephone and Telegraph Com
pany A wonderful story of modern
| Napoleon of finance and organic alton.
Thomas Dreier tells how Elizabeth
Towne, one of the most potent leaders
in New Thought, conquered poverty
and unhappiness through a knowledge
of the great Truths she had tested in
the crucible of her own experience.
Next to Roosevelt's own books it is
safe to say that nothing published in
this country to-day is attracting any
thing like the eager reading accord ed
Alfred Henry Lewis's great serial,
