Wilson, IL he were to judge by the
two meetings at which the governor
spoke tonight--one to Independent
Republicans, at the Academy of Mu-

dissenting seices at the Republican
meeting, but II may be said, In all
fairness, that the dissentors were re-
formed before leaving the haii--re-
formed BY the governors ready. con-

The governors address TO the IN

talked it all over-whats sort Of a CAM
paiSn they would make. Miss Martin
had critically read Tavenner's letters
for months. She was Il Young woman
of advanced political ideas. At first
she told TaNcnner that, even though
Il democrat. he was right in many of
his political ideals: later she said she
tween the things Ia. Toilette believed
in and the things Tavenner believed
in: finally (this was after tho engage
ment and just before the wcdding) she
saw plainly that Senator La Follette's
only fault was that he was not a dem.
ocrat. She said that Tavenncr's ideas
could not fail to win the election for
him.
SO. while Mrs. ravenner composed
letters to h voters hat we're cpl
tones Of the new ideas in politics,
and mimeographed them and mailed
them by the hundred thousand, and
organized the workers, and took polls.
and kept track Of the campaign con-
tributions and expenditures. and such
little Jobs, Tavenncr was out driving
over his district-"making afr" as the
politicians custom of meeting the vot-
ers at the county fairs is called.
I'm not much Of an orator." he
told them, so I don't make many
speeches. But you know what I stand
for-l have been writing my ideas in
eight newspapers in this district for
several years. l have printed these
cardinal principles on n card. and
when YOU vote for me you vote for
those things in congress-"

crowd distributing his cards, - ::

Attracting Attention.

Bismarck. y. d.. Dec. 1O.-Dne of
the most interesting cases in the peni-
Tertiary, and onc which occupied some
time of the %pardoning board at it's last
session was that Of John Young, who
was sentenced from Cass county. Oc-
tober IL. q Year ago, for robbing the
North Coast Limited train between
Tower City n Buffalo in Jnly. 1911.
Young was picked up in Nenah,
where he plead guilty and threw him
sclf upon the mercy of the court,
drawing from ten to fifteen years. Up
on receiving such a heavy sentence
Young became pceycd and has been
putting up a fight to get out cver sincc.
1t seems. according to his story, that
he was not in the trouble at all. but
that he had simply become the goat
in hopes that he would draw Il short
sentence and get half of the reward
money. When the Northern Pacific
railway rompany's sleuths got unto
h game and refused To pay the 3d.
