The speakership contest is the next big political
event of interest to the people the state for on the
outcome of this contest hinges the makeup of the
mtee of the house and the fate of much reform egisa
tion. The progressive element OF the Republican party
has stronger hold this year than they did last
and unless the situation is mudded it was two
ago in the interest of the reactonry element the outcome
this year will be much satisfactory to the people
There are three leading progressive candidates for the
speakership, Henry Rines. N. j. HoImberg and w. l.
Nolan They all men of broad enough patriotism not
to allow their personal ambitions interfere with the
success of the progressive Either one would make
very good speaker and each will probably gather as
much strength as he and then unite on the
proposition whose fatherhooJ is very easy to trace
is that the speaker be seectd by the whole house
OF by the Republican This is supported with the
plausible argument that the speaker of the house should
be non-patisan The object of the suggestion IS
to give Republican and the Democrats an
opportunity to select speaker friendly to the special in
terests. -----
o'nce the above was written the progressive element
have united on Henry Rines.

THE NEWSPAPER AS A BUSINESS


The Owatonna Journal Chronicle announces that it
will discontinue its daily edition and devote its attention
solely to the weekly edition. The for discontinue
ing the daily is that it does not pay.
Papers have been discontinued in the past because
they did pay but the publisher seldom reached real
ization that the paper did pay until his bank
was depleted and his credit exhausted But here is al
newspaper evidently enjoying good patronage published
by printing establishment in prosperous condition,
which deliberately discontinues of its editions
Why is this done? The answer is system And
the answer carries lesson not only to every other pub
Usher but to every engaged in every business

In their announcement the Journal. Chronicle Co.
says
"About two years ago, convinced that we didn't
know as much about our business should, in

the daily could bear its proportion of the general

also found that ddnt pay to publish the daily just to
keep the force busy for there is for
printing establishment printing newspaper at loss than
there is of doing any other printing at loss.
We congratulate the publishers of the Journal Chron-
icle their wisdom in disseminating the daily edition

be smaller but their expenses will be less and their
profits more.
