DOES NOT AGREE WITH LIND
BERGH.

Brainerd Tribune: Congressman
Lindbergh, who deli9hts to pose as
"Progressive Republican, has declared
himself in favor of the recall of our
Judges. In plain words he wants to
make them afraid of public opinion,
to have them surrender their indepen-
dence and exalt personal politics in
stead of justice. The Intelligent,
thou ghtful voter will not follow MIR.
L,ndbergh in his latest Socialist
theory. The bench should be free
from sudden outbreaks of excitement
or passion. and should be kept free
from the pressure OF both the pro-
letariat and the plutocracy. =.
