safily follow that the one-mill tax
will be levied. A majority Of the
members Of both branches of the
Legislature must vote for a law that
will authorize the levying of the tax.
Many candidates for the legislature
are profuse in their promises to vote
and labor for visionary measures
that, even if enacted into laws,
would be OF no real benefit to the
people, but they are dumb as oysters
on the good roads question. Vote
for no candidate who is not heart
and soul in favor of the cause of bet
tering our public highways. There
is no other question of more vital
Importance to the people of Mime
sofa that that of permanently i'm
proving the country roads of the
state. There is nothing that would
prove of more lasting benefit or
would be more conducive to the hap
piness and prosperity of greater
number Of people than better public
highways. .~---.:s... =.

NO INCREASE IN TAXES.

We plead guilty to making a speci-
atty Of the good roads amendment.
We wish to center attention on that
amendment-the first on the pink
ballot. Some Of the other amend
ments the Union favors, and some Of
them it regards as ill-advised. But
there can be no diversity Of opinion
as regards the good roads amend
ment. Every intelligent man and
woman in every township of the
state favors better public highways.
That is conceded. The proposition
admits of no argument.
The only question in the minds of
some is the increase Of the tax rate.
II the amendment is adopted and the
full one-mill tax is levied by the leg
lslature the state tax rate will not be
increased a fraction of mill. The
natural increase in the indirect taxes,
and proper economy on the part Of
the legislature, will care for the ad-
ditional three-fourths of a mill Of
state road tax. 49,.
We unhesitatingly assert that if
the good roads amendment is adopted
by the people and the one-mill tax
levied by the legislature there will
be no increase in the state tax rate.
But even if there should be a
slight increase in the rate, what of
it? How could public funds be ex-
pended to better advantage than in
the improvement of the public high
ways? Every dollar honestly and
intelligently expended in improving
the roads and bridges of the state
pays tenfold.
When you go into the. booth on
election day the first ballot you
should consider is the little pink
ballot, and the first amendment on
that ballot is the good roads amend
ment. Having properly marked the
pink ballot then you can give your
attention to the candidates on the
big white and blue ballots and vote
for the men of your choice. But
consider the pink ballot first, and
place an X opposite the word YES
and immediately under the tip of
the arrow.

J. J. Hill intends to make St. Paul
the financial center of the North
west. He has already secured control
of the Second National bank and
the Northwestern Trust company,
and has about completed arrange
ments to%acquire the First National
bank of that City. With these ffnan-
cial institutions united he will have
one Of. the strongest banks in the
country, one that can easily finance
all@his great interests. One of his
pet schemes is to assist the farmers
Of the Northwest by letting them
have money at four to six per cent,
where now they are paying from
eight to ten per cent. Whatever MI.
Hill undertakes to do he does it with
all his might and his big bank is
bound to be success.

! The te car csza4r of Russia, says cable
gram, is about to abolish the Danish
ment of prisoners to Siberia. This
does not arise, however, from any
conscientious scruples which have
overcome the tyrant, but has been
brought about by protest from the
free population of Siberia, who con-
tend that the country is overrun
with the scum Of Russian jails,
which seriously hampers it's develop
ment. The same form of punish.
ment will be melted out to convicts
as heretofore, but in prisons of
European Russia instead of Siberia.

A ''rooter king" has been elected
by the students of the state uniyer-
sity for the football season. The
duties of a rooter king are to. in
struct the boys in the art Of inten-

in the production Of hideous noises
at the game. He is the biggest
noise of all, and therefore the big

who loves to witness a game of ball.

BROWN, BUM and HOLT,

One hundred and sixty-one men,
bers of the bar, men of all shades of
political opinion, have Endorsed CAL
vim L. Brown Of Morris for chief
justice of the supreme court, and
George L. Bum of St. Paul and An
drew Holt of Minneapolis for ascot
ate justices of the supreme court.
All three are at present associate
justices of the supreme court.
Justice Brown is recognized by
lawyers and laymen alike as one of
the ablest judges who has ever
graced the supreme bench. Justice
Brown is a republican.
Justice George L. Bum has served
as district judge of Ramsey county
for many years, and although he is a
democrat he has been elected and re-
elected several times without opposi-
ton. His ability is Of a high order;
he is a Just and fearless Judge and
he should have the support of all
who wish to see the present high
standard of the supreme bench main
tanned.
Justice Andrew Holt is the first
Scandinavian who has ever occupied
a seat on the supreme bench, and
was appointed by Governor Eberhart
to succeed Justice Simpson, resigned.
Justice Holt served on the Hennepin
county district bench for several
years and has good record. He is
held in high esteem by his colleagues
of the supreme court and is in every
way qualified for the position he so
ably fills. s ~ g. - ,.....@
The Union believes in non-parti-
$ san Judiciary and in retaining the
services of men for judicial positions
who have been tried and tested and
not found wanting; hence we favor
the promotion of; Justice Brown to
the chief justiceship and the reten-
tion of Justices Bum and Holt in
their present positions. > =
