Everybody wondered at the time
why T. r.. was so anxious to get
those words Gin God We Trust'' off
our coins. Now it appears that it
was just a method of preparing
space in which to put a picture of
bull moose.--Duluth Herald.

Three Hard Pills to Swallow.
The Princeton Union is shocked
because P. V. Collins was delegate
to the progressive convention, but
swallows Oar Reese, Ed Smith, Bill
Grimshaw and that bunch without
even gulping. Centre Herald.

The Public Foots the Bills.
The government printing office is
grinding out 100000 copies of
speeches by congressman for campaign
consumption to be ranked free
through the mails, another item in
the high cost of living for the public
that pays the bills.-Arcadia Record.
One Commendable Characteristic.
There is one commendable charac-
teristic Woodrow Wilson has: when
he is asked a question, he always
answers it. OF course his switch to
local: option will not get him any
prohibition votes, but he wouldn't
get them anyway.-Duluth News
Tribune.
A Pointer for Political Parties.
1t is said that money is pouring in
to the treasures Of: the political par
ties from women who are taking an
active part in the campaign. When
the different political organizations
can organize or secure a ladies' aid
society the question of raising plenty
of money will be settled. Red Wing
Republican.
Make Them Snow Up, Colonel.
No candidate for the legislature
will receive the endorsement of the
Union who does not come out in
print and tell just where he stands
on all public questions. The Union
will demand of every office seeker
just how he will vote on all questions
pertaining to the public welfare

In What Way?
"We hold with Thomas Jefferson and
Abraham Lincoln" says the pream-
BILE of the Roosevelt party platform.
In what way, please? By denying
southern negroes the right to vote in
convention? We know that the
Roosevelt party has so held, but
didn't know that Jefferson and
Lincoln also had.--Red Wing Daily
Eagle.
So
John Will be Forgiven.
John Lind is coming back from
Europe to tour Minnesota in the in
terest of Wilson's candidacy for presi-
dent. 1t would not seem as though
John would have very much influence
with the democrats of Minnesota
after the way he threw them down
when they nominated him for COVER
nor two years ago.-Fergus Falls
Journal.
Consdon's Man is Suspicious.
The gubernatorial situation in this
state could be easily classified, pro-
viding-R. G. Dunn says that he will
file and run against Eberhart, provid-
ing all the other candidates will
Withdraw from the race Wouldn't
that be nice. We've had suspicion
all along that he was in favor of Eb-
erharts re-election.-P Gordon's

Law Makes Men Liars.
The twin city papers are comment
ing on some of the expense accounts
which are being filed by the guber-
material candidates and intimating
that they are not including all the
money in the account that is actually
