candidates when the final ticket is
arranged.
If a man has right to vote bal
lot, he has the right to make the bal
lot on which he shall vote. The man
who takes no part in the caucus cleo
tions and then when he comes to the
polling booth on election days OBJ
jects because of the two men named
neither is satisfactory, has no reason
to feel dissatisfed; for if he had
done his duty in the first place, the
result might and probably would
have been different.
The people of Minnesota should
have preferential primary law that
will allow the voters to make their
own ballots and make them free from
dominated conventions. But
such one is not on the statute books
at this time so that the caucus is the
only opportunity the people will have
of expressing their preferences.
Every man owes it to himself as a
citizen and voter to attend the eau
cuses and cast his ballot for good GOV
ernment. Talk with the candidates
and see for whom they will stand if
elected to the county and state con-
ventions. Then go in and vote for
the right man.
Would the women attend the eau
cuses if they had the right to vote?
They certainly would! Will the
men do less on May Z?

Flower Pot Coverings.

Although there is nothing really
Objectionable in a plain earthenware
flower pot, there are many girls who
like to have plants in their rooms but
who object to the sight Of the prac,
tical pot and cannot afford an orna-
mental one.
In that case they may make quite
an artistic cover from paper, which
can be changed as soon as it is dis
colored by the dampness Of the earth.
To facilitate changing, narrow rib
bons Of the color of the paper should
be cut for the top and bottom of the
pot and fitted with dome fasteners
or hooks and eyes.
These girdles can be quickly taken
of, and they look much neater and
are f1rmer than a ribbon tied around
the gathered paper.

Finishing Nine Years.

This issue completes volume 9 of
the Pioneer as daily and on Monday

Many changes have come both to the
city and to the paper since the daily

some of those changes.

"What made you so 1ate?"

should be an hour late getting home
to supper"

was feeling, and he insisted on tel

Parody on Apostles Greed
Presented to the Senate
,.., By John Sharp Williams

,''I believe in Theodore Roosevelt,
maker of noise and strife, and in
ambition, his only creed (My Lord).
He was born of the love of power
and suffered under William H. Taft;
was crucified, dead and buried. He
descended into Africa. The third
year he rose again from the jungle
and ascended into favor and sitteth
on the right hand of his party,
whence he shall come to scourge the
licked and the dead.
believe in the Holy Outlook, the
Big Stick, the Ananias club, the for
giveness of political activities, the
resurrection of presidential ambitions
and the third term everlastingly.-
Amen, Amen, Amen"

Republican Caucuses.

Notifications have been mailed to
the members of the Republican coun-
ty committee calling their attention
to the precinct caucuses to be held
May and asking their cooperation
in sending a delegation to Bemidji.
These caucuses are of vital import
ance to every voter since it is the
nearest approach that Minnesota has
to preferential primary. Those who
do not go to the caucus polling places
and cast their ballot for delegates
to the county convention will have
no word in the nomination Of the

at the top of our contemporary editorial
column and Ii makes long argument in
support of Mr.. Taft as a candidate. Its
long series of reasons given in lustifica-
ton of its claim that Taft should be
elected eliminates In the following de-
claration;
For Maine in particular, the name
of the nominee has an allteFative
effect from the repetition of the word
Bill. Surely a combination of Bill )
Taft and Bill Haines should prove
irresistible in the Pine Tree State.
Thus we learn that the Bangor News
thinks two Bills on a ticket are better
than one Bill would be. According to
that method of reasoning, Republican
chances of success would increase as the
number of Bills among the candidates
We're multiplied. The only trouble with
people in the State who do not want
either Bill who is now before the people.

Never mind, dear; We'll all have to
stand for the inflated ballot bill, the
rum bills, the extra session bills, the
Jersey junket bills. and some other bills
that have grown out of the economy
regime.

Fourth FooIishness Prohibition.

Down in Pittsburg they are adopting
sane. practical and rigid prohibition of
inflammation of thet patriotism. They
are not only prohibiting the sale OF
Fourth of July stuff that is almost as
deadly as booze. but they are holding
individual officers responsible for en-
forcement of the law.
Contrary to the present Maine offic-
ial conviction. they believe that pro
hibition can lee made to prohibit. The
Dispatch says:
1.-The police warning regarding the
steps to be taken TO assure a sane and
safe celebration of the Fourth in this
city should lead to an even more care
full observance than last year. Partie-
ularly good is the notice that any ia
tality will be thoroughly investigated
50 as to reach the source of supply Of
the agent causing the fatality, and il
any violation of law be proved the Off
Ger on that beat will be cited for trial
before the Police Board to answer
charges of disobedience of orders.
This puts the enforcement of the
laws right up to the individual officers,
who, thus warned. will have no ex-
ause for tolerating violations of eva
sions on any personal theory that it
may do no harm. The only way to pre-
vent fatalities and accidents resulting
from violation of laws made TO pre-
vent them is to convince everyone. Pc
lice and public, that the laws must be
enforced. With the officers Seld to
strict accountability and the public
thereby warned that no chances must
be taken we may look forward to the
Fourth with less misgiving in the mat
ter of maimings and fatalities from ex-
plosives and firearms"
