most of the towns in Minnesota
that have had more papers than

THE TIMES VIRTUES

The loss of control Of the
Stearns ounty democratic
convention still worries the high
ly esteemed St. Cloud Times.
Last week The Herald gave some
of the inside facts concerning
the matter and commented there
on editorially. The venerable,
universally respected and be-
loved editor of the Times, G.. F.
Mcdonald, read The Herald
editorial and then wrote and
printed the following:
"The garrulous old woman
who edits the Sank Centre Her.
aid, much to the regret of the
good people of that progressive
city, devoted a column of it's
space to h e late democratic
county convention, and eulogy
of Beaudreau, Chute ct al. "A.
M is great toadier.'
What gets on tire esteemed
Times nerves is the loss of con-
troll of the convention, presaging
the possible loss of control of
Stearns county affairs in so far
as it affects the pocket hooks
and the bank accounts of the
Times and Der Nordstern. AS
The Herald stated in the editor
ial of which the Times complains,
t h e Times-Nordstern combine
has run Stearns county demo-
cracy for years and loudly boast
ed that nobody else could have
'look-in." With t h e chair.
man of the board of commits
missioners, the county surveyor,
Jim Bennett and their following
openly rebelling against the yoke
that has CALLED them for years,
the outlook isn't so very rosy
for that unholy combine. The
possibility that the Times-Nord-
stern combine may be pried loose
from it's graft of years standing
is what rolls the peaceful and
lovable disposition of Dear Old
Mac.
Joe Kowalkowski was elected
a delegate to the Baltimore
convention; Fred Schilplin, bus
mess manager of t h e Times,
failed to land that plum. Hence
the tears of the esteemed Times.
The publisher of The Herald
entertains the kindliest feelings
for Bro. Macdonald and for Fred
Schilplin. but it has no time for
their policy of absorbing every
thing in sight and then whining
like whipped ours when beaten.
The Herald, being simply a dis.
interested spectator, was much
amused at the antics of the

Times Nordstern machine at the
county convention.
Bro. Macdonald knows very
we'll that his statement, quoted
above, that The Herald "eulo-
gize Beaudreau, Bennett,
Chute, ct al" is not true. The
Herald said that Beaudreau was
mt very much OF chairman but
that he did what he was told to
do. Is that eulogy? The Her.
aid said further that if Jim Ben.
nett could pry the Times Nord-
stern loose from its hoggish
policy, good for Jim. If the
esteemed Times would stick to
the facts it's statements would
carry more weight.
Delegates from outside St.
Cloud have complained for years
of being dragged into the county
seats factional fights. That S
just what was done at the late
convention, and the fight is the
result Of the Times NOrdstern
trying to hog everything in
sight. DR.. J. A. Dubois of Sank
Centre stated as much on the
floor of the convention. The
people want change and if Jim
Bennett, Paul Beaudreau, Sam
Chute and the voters who trained
with them at the late county
convention can bring it about,
the people will not complain.
Then if Bennett, Chute, Beau
dreau, ct al. overstep themselves,
the people will see to it that
they are relegated to the scrap
heap along with the fragments
of the Times-Nordstern machine.
Again The Herald exhorts the
esteemed Times not to let this
matter get on to its nerves.
