William Rosendahl, one of Red

gressive businessmen has announced
himself candidate for sheriff on the
Democratic ticket. subject to the.
primaries next September. Mr..
Rosendahl is a hustler and a vote

There is movement on foot to-
boost ]. A. A. Burnquist for lieuten-
ant governor. Burnquist represents
a st. Paul district in the house and
was a candidate for speaker in 1911
He was a progressive candidate and
the other bunch beat him. This man
Burnquists seems to be a fine fellow,
a man in whom his associates have
confidence. He has a good legisla-

compromising progressive and never
failed to vote larger political oppor-
tunities to the people," Burnquist
has made many friends throughout
the state since he entered public life

portunity to boost him to a place of
prominence. a position of
larger usefulness. We doubt that a
better selection for the position Of
Governor could possibly
be made than the one here endorsed
