Emil olund, representative Sized
ishcAmerican, has fled for secretary
Of state on the democratic ticket. Mr..
'Olund was q, democrat in the q days
when democrats among his people were
mighty few. He served az collector Of
customs at Duluth, and made great
record for efficiency. As representative
of an insurance company, he has visit
ed all parts Of the state, and is widely
known. Mr.. Olund's name will bring
strength to the ticket, and he will be
a formidable candidate, no matter who
opposes him: On the republican side
Secretary Schmahl is trying to break
the three-terms-and-out tradition.
Schmahl is clever politician and has
a very large acquaintance. Those who
assume that he can be easily defeated
are much mistaken: His opponent, Rep
resentative G.. 81. Mattson, is also a
newspaper man, and is clean and able.
He could undoubtedly have continued
in the legislature, and his friends, who
FEEL sthat there is future guberna-
torial timber in him, would rather he
had not filed for secretary Of states
Mr.. *Mattson is man Of fine presence,
a good speaker, and of&fne personal
character. Why either Mattson -. or
Schmahl should wantczthe nominations

Roosevelt g platform does not say
anything about simple living, reformed
spelling, or the use Of buttermilk. With
these exceptions everything else has
been included. Whenever there is a
vote that might be touched, the plat.
form touches it. There are many fine
things in the platform, but when it is
remember that Theodore Roosevelt
was president fol: seven years. and
never in all that time did anything
toward putting these reforms into eff:
feet, and derided those who did advo.
cate some Of them, it takes a person
without memory to take much stock in
the platform words, knowing that
deeds are missing. Because he wants
to be president, Roosevelt has found
that he favors whole lot of things
whose existence he never learned until
this year. When Wilson went into his
office, he translated words into deeds.
With Roosevelt it has been, anl will
continue to be, words, words, words.
All the promises in the platform about
the many needed and salutary re-
forms do not hide the heart of it all,
which is what the great magnates who
~AO uA0ACAAS CAO 1GOO0CNC1C 1uOtcIsHuG
want, and that is the provision making
commission industrial arbiter of the
United States. It is the pet plan of
Roosevelt and Perkins, and: shows why
the big monopoists are puttingsup the
money for him. A board to Regulate
and control the big corporations and
fix prices of their products. Wouldn't
that: be a splendid thing; for 1.-THE
magnates. All they would need to do
would, be to, control the board, and the
people would be at their mercy. The
country would be governed by i board
of Industrial ,despots, controlled BY
monopoie les. = Socialism would be pre-:
ferable to this. Under socialism at
least the people would be partners in
industry. Under: the Roosevelt Perkins
plan they would become Industrial
slaves. It is dangerous doctrine, and
it is a pity to see SO many good men
misled by the precious promises as to
other reforms, swallowing this plank.
The monopslies care nothing about the
other matters. Those are only: Incl
dental compared to the proposal which
would destroy forever economic liberty:

Fhere has been mention made Of
Gtuaty Attorney J. B. Himsl of Stear1ts
county, Con O'Brien of Brainerd and
Senator Peterson Of Litchfeld, as DOS
sible' aspirants for the democratic
nomination for congress in this dis
srict. All good men and true, and there
are others; for instance, DR.. Dubois of
Sank Centre, and Geo. eastman of
Staples, who would fill the bill. Every
county has men fit for the place. The
Herald, however, does not believe,
under> present conditions, that there is
apy need~r-Tof democrat fl
ing in this district any more
sxhn there was two years ago, and we
doubt whether any democrat in the
district could succeed against the pres
ent congressman. The latter reason,
however, is Of small importance. If
Mr.. Lindbergh has been derelict as a
congressman, he ought to have op-
position, but he has on the whole sup
ported progressive doctrines by voice
and vote and has incurred the dis
like of reactionaries in both parties.
The democratic candidate for presi-
dent needs the votes of prqgressives in
all parties. He cannot be elected with
out them A democratic democrat who
opposes a faithful progressive, and at
tie same time expects progressive sup
port for the head of his ticket, is hard
1y fair. The Herald, is willing to take
its stand with Woodrow Wilson, who
is, asking men Of all parties to support
those who have been faithful to pop
Mar rights no matter what they call
themselves. 49,.

Woodrow WILSON'S. AD-=
a=E;:l.zs: HINISTRATIVE ABILITY


During his9eampa for governor it
suited $his polite opponents to de-
scribe him as aman.v9hos had led a
clustered life SO that he2was unfamiliar
with affairs and was wanting in ad.
ministrative ability. Such a notion
seemed very grotesque to those who
knew Woodrow Wilson. It altogether
misconceived the nature Of university
presidents work. The post calls for ad-
illustrative ability Of very high Or
der, and incidentally brings about con-
tracts and acquaintanceships that put
one in personal touch with all great
national interests, whether business or
political. The administrative problems
that many engage university presi-
dents attention involve men of ex-
ceptional ability and force, so that con-
troversies, if they arise, are more than
usually formidable.
l. Woodrow Wilson possesses in a sin.
gularly high degree the great admins
trative faculty of prompt apprehension
Of the true nature of a case, so as. to
disengage it from the irrelevant and
adventurous and to guide discussion to
sound conclusions. Whatever might be
the matter coming up at faculty meet
ings, whether through committee re-
port or a chance motion, his mind
seized it at once, stating the case
clearly and brining out all it's elements
for consideration. At times he took an
active part in debate. The speech he
made in introducing the preceptorial
system has become a faculty tradition
as model Of perspicacity and force.
His quickness Of apprehension was also
marked whenever he took part in
conference or was present at a COM
mittee meeting. No matter how COM
plicated the subject, his mind seemed
bear effectively upon it at once, cut
ting, into it like a. circular: saw into a
knotty log. His apprehension extends
to the points Of view Of all concerned,
and he is particularly happy in re.
maTing differences by promoting clear

The: Herald hopes: that two good
progressive democrats may be found to
file for representatives. There is no way
Of knowing who will be the republican
nominee. They may be good men, and
they may not. If they are good men,
not tools of any interest, not allied
with gang politics., so much the better.
Good citizens will feel safe in know
ing that whatever party wins, the repre-
sentatives will be faithful. If the
chosen nominees of the republicans
prove, through their record and past
affiliations, to be untrustworthy, then
it is all the more important that the
people have opportunity to select faith
full representatives. The district has a
republican majority, it is true, but
majorities mean little in a. year like
this, when there is chaos in political
matters. The new vote which has come
into Crow Wing county, in the iron
regions, is tinctured largely with
socialism. Quite a number call them
selves socialists who are really simply
protesting against the present order
Of things, and who have not really EN-
braced the socialist philosophy. Present
such men with clean and progressive
candidates, and they will have strong
claims: to their support. With the
situation mixed as it is, with the re-
publican party split in two, two good
democrats Of right principles, with an
honest legislative program, firm be-
levers in the Initiative and 'Referen-
dunn as the open door to needed reforms
can, We believe, be elected in this dis
trict- There are plenty Of men in Nor
rison county who meet the require
ments. The time should bring them
both.

THE ROOSEVELT WAY

"How do you stand on MEs" is
Roosevelt's sole test Of qualification
for progressive. Imagine congress
elected on this basis. OF course, it
would be reactionary. Roosevelt is not
concerned about progressive con-
gress. An Aldrich senate and a Cannon
house are satisfactory to him, if he
can win more easily with that kind of
a combination. What would become of
the progressive movement under such
leadership And yet, it is exactly the
plan Roosevelt pursued when presi-
dent. 1t is the Roosevelt way. He sup
ported Lodge for United States senator
two years ago, and Penrsse for United
States senator four years ago. He has
always played this kind Of a political
game-Senator LaFollette.

FOR DISTRICT JUDGE

st. Cloud: Times: On Saturday,
Myron D.: Taylor filed as Anon par:
tisan candidate for recollection as judge
Of this judicial district. !: Under The
recently enacted law, the judiciary has
been taken out *of partisan L: scramble
and contention, and citizens; are bft
perfectly free: from party a. Or other
obligation to: vote for the candidate
best fitted I'LL these most responsible
of all position: 20 This is wise and
meritorous7 law. r. 81
In this judicial district this plan
has been followed for q quarter of a
century. Although strongly reputi-
can, the people have disregarded par:
tisanship and have one republican
and one democratic judge. At the
last election Judge Nye [dem.) was
chosen over. republican, thus con
tinuing the non-partisan record #<of
the district. +
Judge Taylor (rep.) is now a non
partisan candidate, and is not alone
entitled to the support Of democrats
as we'll as republicans because of
the past history Of the district, but
especially because of his eminent
qualifications, his learning as a law
yer, his clear perception, and his
sound judgment. His record on the
bench has been second, in all that
constitutes a wise Judge, to no other
member Of the Minnesota Judiciary,
a fact which is recognized by bench
and bar. 7
Judge Taylor should and no doubt
will receive the unanimous support
of all parties for reelection.

Says Prof. Taylor in the Survey:
"The time is not far distant when
neither a church member nor citizen
will be thought good if his citizenship
is not really as good as church mem
bership certifes manhood and woman
hood to be. The home which family
has, will be less a criterion Of it's
character than the tenement house in
which in the same town the families of
the poor live. A citizen will not pass
as law-abiding unless he stands for
equality for all before the law. Per
sona1 virtue will be measured by the
effectiveness with which it promotes
public virtue. The character of town
will be Judged not only by the personal
virtues of it's people, but by their
standards of it's public life and social
conditions for which they are RESPONSE
BILE. The efficiency Of the church will
be tested by the extent to which social
conditions and town government make
It easier to be good and harder to be
had. The claim of being community
of Christians will not be conceded to
those who do not constitute Christian
community =.
