The Former President as

THE DEMAND IS NATION WIDE
Many Believe He is Only Can.
didate Who Can Defeat
Taft
THE DEMAND IS NATION WIDE

Is Colonel Roosevelt the choice Of
Redwood county Republicans fol
president?
This question has been asked fre.
|quently during the past few days by
leading Progressive Republicans Of
this city and county and the answer
in nearly every case. it is said, has
been yes.
Upon the heels of this Roosevelt
awakening has come the statement
that Roosevelt club will be organ
lied in the county in the belief that
ne is the one man who can take the
Minnesota delegation away from
President Taft.
No one seems to want Taft
La Toilette has lost strength as
Roosevelt has been indorsed by var
ious states.
Cummlns' announcement also
weakened La Toilette.
The one logical figure around
whom the Progressive Republicans
can coalesce is Roosevelt. say Red
wood Republicans.
In this belief it IS expected that
very soon q call will be sent out ask
ing for a meeting at which a Roose-
welt Republican club will be organ
lied.

PUT QUESTION TO CANDIDATES

County option again will be the
principal issue of the Minnesota
Anti-Saloon league, and resolutions
passed at the annual meeting in
Minneapolis last week Of the board
of trustees indicated that the issue
was never in better favor with the
trustees than at present; in fact, a
nail or two was probably added 10
strengthen it in the platform of the
league.
Sure of Remaining
At no time was there any sign Of
doubt but what the county option
plank would remain.
While action on any of the candi-
dates for Governor was not taken. ii
is understood that the league officers
propose to find out from s. Y. Cor
don and w. E. Lee where they stand
on this issue,
Both County Optionists
These two men have been acknow-
lodged county optionists in the past.
but in their platforms announcing
their candidates. last week both
were silent on this subject. The
league will try to get them on re-
cord in favor of its issue. and,
failing to do so, may oppose or at
least not favor their candidates..
Officers Are Elected
w. 5. Wingate of Minneapolis was
reelected president of the league.
Other offiters elected were: Vice
president. A. f. Elmquist; secretary,
G. A. Gruman, treasurer, DIR. B. T.
Allen. and auditor, A. P. Peterson,

ROAD TO CITY
NOW CERTAIN
Minneapolis and Redwood to
Be Connected by Good
Broad Highway

With the exception of. Is miles
through Renyille county state
road from Redwood Falls to Minne-
apolis has been designated by tile
county commissioners of the various
counties.
Assurances of this fact were re-
ceived by Judge A. R. A. Laudon
last week. There remains then to
induce the Renville commissioners
to make the necessary designation
and application to the state highway
commission for aid to make the road
a certainty.
The line laid out is along the M.
& st. l.. railroad and when in shape
should make one of the most attrac-
tive drives in Minnesota.
G. A. Will of the Minneapolis
commercial club has written Judge
Laudon that the club will do all it
can to help forward the project and
that the Minneapolis Auto club will
enthusiastically plug for it.
At the good roads meeting at
Arlington last week a committee
was appointed to confer with the
highway commission as to the
amount of money which may be Sc
cured for the road in Sibley county.
This committee has been assured
that bout So. 900 will be available
at once.
Meanwhile Redwood Falls men
are keeping busy. There was a
meeting Of the auto club Wednes-
day night at which time DR.. E. a..
Lyma was elected secretary, as the
best booster in town. and "A. r. a..
Laudon, A. G. Dolliff and Joseph
Tyson were appointed committee
to take up the project with other
clubs and secure their support and
cooperation in the move.

RIDE IN FREIGHT CAR
Northwestern Car leaves Track
And Passengers Try Side
Door Pullman

4 small bunch of travelling men
6gether with a number of Other
peaceful passengers experienced
some thing novel in the line Of &C.
commodations last Saturday morn
when they climbed shivering from q
side door Pullman at the N. W.
depot.
The morning train from Sleepy
Eye was about eight miles from
town, and crawling along at rate
of speed that a tortoise could beat
when one of the box cars suddenly
slipped off the tracks.
The passenger coach was behind
the derailed box car. and blocked in
such manner that it was necessary
to abandon it for the less paIatial
box car which brought the passen-
gers to Redwood Falls.
The mercury was flirting with the
zero mark, and some one whispered
that there was plenty of ventilation
in the car No one was injured how
ever, and save the Inconvenience
that was experienced the wreck
proved pleasingly novel.

FARMERS TALK
PARCELSP0ST
Main Topic of Discussion at
Regular Meeting at Court
house Last Saturday

Who is opposing the parcels post
bill?
That is the question that caused
spirited debate at the meeting of the
Farmers club at the courthouse Sat-
urday afternoon.
It's the express companies, says
Mrs. Little.
It's the retail merchants, says A.
%. Stewart.
Will Circulate Petition
Anyway the club voted to indorse
the general and rural parcels post
bill now pending. Mr.. Smith, George
Whittet and r. E. Fuller were ap-
pointed as committee to circulate
petition in favor Of the bill.
Mrs. Little who opened the dis
cussion took rap at the city people
who don't patronize home industry.
She said:
Scores The Town Folks
I'm getting tired Of hearing it
said that the farmers are the ones
who send away for stuff instead Of
buying OF the local merchants. The
town folks do more of this than the
country people. The merchants
wives themselves send away when
they want something little out of
ordinary. | know what I'm talking
about and know they do it, And
she said it exactly as though she
meant it.
Among other thing Mrs. Little
said:
Praises Parcels Post
The parcels post il splendid
public express and light freight
service at low cost which every
civilized progressive nation except
the United States gives its people.
You have all heard the reason John
Wanamaker gave for the country
not having a better parcels post.
He said there are just four reasons:
the American express. the Adams
express. the United States express
and the Well Fargo express.
Opposition In Strong
These four reasons are the in
fluences that have prevented time
and again any betterment OF the
United States parcels post. The
opposition to parcels post has been
thoroughly organized. Wholesale
establishments Of the cities, retail
merchants, express and railroad
companies will be on hand to do all |
they can to defeat any parcel post
bill.
1t is up to you voters. Will you
do anything or not. You can talk
and have farmers clubs and sit back |
and growl all YOU please but If you
Do not something you will get
