ism ruled. 1t was new body of men
to Minnesota politics.
Taking into consideration these
two factors, i. g., the youth Of the
delegates and the progressive spirit
as expressed in the action of the con-
vention, it is believed that new era
of government in this state has been
started. With the preferential sys-
tenn working, conventions will become
things of the past and it was freely
predicted in Minneapolis yesterday
that the convention then being held
would be the last of it's kind:
It now rests with the state central
committee to make the preferential
primary on governor a real show of
the will of the people or farce. The
convention merely instructed that
such a vote should be taken and eft
the modus operandum to the commit
tee. With Ed Smith in the chair,
some apprehension might easily be
felt over the way in which the COM
mittee will work out the will of the
convention, but it is to be hoped that
this first attempt to get direct vote
in the state will not be made a farce.
Too much cannot be said in favor
of the direct primary. That primary
dominates without question: The

TASTE, SMELL and
HEARING RESTORED
A Simple, Harmless Remedy Quickly
B Relieves Catarrhal
Deafness.

The thousands who suffer the mis-
cries of catarrh, and claim they have
never found cure, can get instant
relief by simply amounting the nos.
trils with Ely's Cream Balm.
Unlike internal medicines which
upset the stomach or strong snuffs
which only aggravate the trouble,
this cleansing, healing, antiseptic
balm instantly reaches the seat Of
charge, clears the nose, head and
throat, and brings back the sense Of
taste, smell and hearing. More than
this, it strengthens the weakened,
diseased tissues, thus protecting you
against return of the trouble.
Nasal catarrh is an Inflammation
OF the membrane lining the air pas
sages, and cannot be reached with
mixtures taken into the stomach or
with snuffs and powders which only
cause additional irritation. Don't
waste time on them. Get a fifty
cent bottle of Ely's Cream Balm from
your druggist, and after using it for
u day you will wish you had tried it
sooner.

THIS IS MY 21st BIRTHDAY.
Alexandra of Fife

Princess Alexander of Fife, the
eldest daughter of the late Duke of
Fife, was born May II, 1891. Her
mother, the princess royal, is the ED
est daughter of the late King Edward
and consequently sister of the pres
ent king. The young princess began
life as Lady Alexandra Duff. When
King Edward, the grandfather, came
to the throne, he raised her rank
and she became Princess Alexandra
Of Fife. And now, her father, who
died several months ago while tray
cling in Egypt, having left no son to
succeed him, she has become Duchess
of Fife, though she is still known
popularity as Princess Alexandria,
She is the only duchess in her own
right in the kingdom, and, even if
she we're not of royal blood, would
take precedence of every duke ex-
cept his grace of Westminster.

preferential primary merely shows
the choice of the people and morally
binds the delegates elected to vote ac-
cording to the expressed wishes Of
the people. A preferential primary is
not as effective as a direct primary,
but it is long step in the right di-
rection,
If Fred B. Snyder and Bob Dunn
both enter the race for governor, it
will complicate the situation to such
an extent that only primary of some
sort will be able to straighten the
tangle. The sentiment of the dele
gates at the Minneapolis convention,
as far as state politics were talked,
appeared to be for the field against
Eberhart. A preferential primary
will prove valuable in showing which
candidate against Eberhart is the
strongest.
The unanimity with which the
convention went on record as favor
ing the preferential primary is one
of the most hopeful signs that Min
snesota can work out from under the
interests that are at present domi-
mating the state.
