PETRIE WILL BE OUT
Expects Now to Ask Republi-
cans to Nominate Him for
Sheriff

Henry Petrie will ask the Republi-
cans to nominate him for sheriff.
At least that is his intention at
present and Henry isn't in the habit
of changing his mind in hurry.
He is one Of the best known men
in the county and will make strong
run for any Office to which he aspires.
He was candidate two years ago
against the present sheriff, Mr..
Schueller and polled a good vote at
the primaries.
Mr.. Tolman of Morgan is already
out with an announcement of his
candidacy and it is likely that the
scrap will center between him and
Petrie though others may get into
the game.

TOLMAN IN THE FIELD
Morgan Man Says He VIII Run For
Sheriff

M. S. Tolman of Morgan will be a
candidate for the Republican NOM
ination for sheriff of Redwood coun-
ty at the primaries to be held in
September. This announcement will
not occasion much surprise to his
host of acquaintance throughout
the county as "Mel'' has frequently
been urged by numerous friends to
go after the nomination heretofore
and a number of times the press of
the county has mentioned him as a
man who would make a good run
if he entered the field, but he has
held back until the present cam
paign.
Mr.. Tolman has been deputy
sheriff for a good many..years and is
thoroughly acquainted with the
duties of the office. Not only that
but his court duties in connection
with his office as deputy has given
him wide acquaintance through
out the county, which would be of
assistance to him in discharging his
official duties if elected.
The Messenger feels that Mr.. Toll
man is we'll enough known around
the county generally not to need any
further introduction. We might
say he has lived in the county for
twenty-five years. and has been a
taxpayer all that time. Morgan
Messenger.

MELGES PRAISES WEST
Says Los Angeles Is Growing AtRate of
mile a Week"

A. A. Melges. formerly in bust
ness here but who has been in Los
Angeles since last summer and who
left there on January 6 is in Bemidji
for a few days.
Los Angeles is the New York of
the Pacific" said Mr.. Melges today.
Even now it is much larger than
San Francisco. Although the feder-
al census gave Los Angeles $50, 900
she is growing so fast that now she
has half million. Growing a mile
a week is the way they speak of it
on the coast and it is about the
truth. "-Bemidji Pioneer.

CREAMERY FIRM
WILL TEST LAW
State Supreme Court Hears
Arguments Against Law of
1909
JAMES WRITES STATPSl BRIEF
Decision in Standard Oil Case
Cited In Support Of
Law
JAMES WRITES STATFs] BRIEF

Arguments in the suit against the
Bridgeman-Russell company, a
creamery concern of Duluth, in the
first test of the law of the 1909 leg
stature to prevent unfair discrimin-
alton in the purchase of milk and
cream for the purposes Of manu-
facture, were made before the state
supreme court Wednesday.
The brief for the. Estate, based
largely on the decision supporting
similar statute aimed at discrimina-
ton in the sale of petroleum pro-
ducts, was completed by Assistant
Attorney General Alexander James.
What is CHARGED
The indictment in the case charges
that the defendants, without regard
to the cost of transportation, paid
from 6to s cents pound less for
butterfat than the actual market
price, at points where there was no
competition, and from 5 to 6 cents a
pound more where there was compe-
tition for the purpose of obtaining a
monopoly of the market. The case
is of especial interest to the dairy
farmers of the state, as it has been
asserted for long time by them
that it was the intention of the
larger creameries or centralizing
plants to drive the small creameries
out of business.
Attack the Law
Baldwin & Baldwin and J. T.
Pearson, attorney for the company.
contend the act is unconstitutional,
saying the law should not apply to
those who purchase milk and cream
for the purpose of manufacture, but
to those who purchase milk and
cream for any other purpose, and
likewise to apply to any person or
corporation attempting to monopo-
lie any other line of business.
Backed by Oil Case
The brief for the state sets forth
the contention that the act is consti-
tutional because there was real
reason for the legislatures classifi-
cation, arising out Of the peculiar
nature of its business. The test suit
of similar statute. when the STAN
dard Oil company was prevented
from selling petroleum at lower
prices at one point in the state than
another. is one of the authorities
cited for the support Of the milk and
cream law. A similar statute in
Iowa was held constitutional. The
case originated in Pine county.

Schmahl Would Strengthen Ticket

The dream of a state political
writer in the Dispatch of Thursday
night last, was amusing in this part
of the country. because it involved a
substantial citizen of the county, and
one well known to the people. We
refer to the effort to connect the
name of Chas. w. Glotfelter of Wa
terville with the office of secretary
of state. saying that it was an Eber-
hart movement in politics. The
writer has fought with and against
Mr.. Glotfelter. We know him. He
is good fighter. Also, he knows
there is nothing in politics. and that
alone would deter him from going
far into the game for he is success
full businessman and is all of that. as
well as good farmer. He is not a
German. however, so cut that. Mr..
Political writer. Ifyou must recog-
nize the nationality trick turn to
someone who is of it. Then, Gov.
Eberhart, and others throughout
the state must not forget that julius
Schmahl is not kidlet, nor will he
weaken a ticket as now proposed.
Gov. Eberhart can make some
friends, many of them by counting
Secretary Schmahl He can lose
many by falling into the Glotfelter
trap, and we do not believe that Mr..
Glotfelter had thing to do with the
movement either. Oh. this game of
politics. The News is for Schmahl.
