A NEW PRECEDENT.

The proposition to reimburse William Lorimer
for part of the expense he to in defending him
self before the bar of the United States Senate is
the most unique proposition yet. It is good law for
the plaintiff in to pay the costs if he fails to
make his case, but it is an unheard-of proposition
tor the State pay the expense of defense incurred
by one found guilty, unless he be pauper and is
given an attorney at the order of the court.
If Lorimer succeeds in persuading the United
States to pay him more than his total salary as
United States Senator for six years would have
amounted to because they found him guilty of secur-
ing his election by corrupt methods, why should moi

Perhaps that is Penrose's game! Seeing trouble

from Standard Oil if by so doing he can extract
several thousand more from the Government for

SPECIAL STATE HOUSE
TRAIN WAS HERE
Gov. Eberhart, Elmquist and Man.
ahan Make Vigorous Talks
al Willmar

The special train bearing Republican
state officials was at Willmar yesterday
arriving a little after two o'clock. In
spite of the cold gale which blew fierce
ly there was quite large crowd of
voters gathered. 1t was representa-
tive crowd, also, there being voters
from many country districts present.
The Willmar Military Band enlivened
the occasion with music. The speakers
appeared on baggage truck placed at
the east end Of the depot out Of the
wind. County Chairman Charles John
son presided. Gov. Eberhart spoke first
and made talk we'll calculated to ap-
peal to the sympathy Of the voters.
Whatever you may say Of Gov. Eber-
hart, you must admit that he is a good
campaigner. He said he knew he had
opposition, but intimated that it came
because he had stood for some principle
Which it was he did not say. He claim
ed he had done something for temper
ance because he had appointed a num-
ber of temperance men to various posi-
tions of trust. He did not wish to car
ry any blame for the raising of rail-
road rates, as that was a matter for
the courts to decide. He claimed that
he had enforced the laws we'll and clos
ed with a plea for endorsement at the
hands of the voters. The next speaker
was Chas. p. Elmquist, railroad COM
missioner, who made an impassiOned
plea in behalf of his record. He also
put the blame for higher railroad rates
on ne tardy work Of the courts and said
no state official could reasonably be
blamed for the delay, He predicted a
favorable decision in the SanDorn cases.
The next and last speaker was James
Manahan, the old,time populist and
for direct legislation.
Hon. Lyndon A. Smith was next in
troduced but the expiration Of the time
limit cut short his remarks. There
were number Of state officials who di,
not appear. If Senator Nelson was on
the train he did not show himself.
With Manahans ringing plea in the ears
one might have gone away under a
spell Of progressive thought. but ut - as the
! tons and pictures were thrown into the
! crowd, and Immediately dispelled any
mental illusion created by the clever
stump speakers.
