And now Ed Weaver of Mankato

And now Ed Weaver of Mankato
has announced his candidacy for the
republican nomination for governor.
Mr.. Weaver is gentleman of high
character and is extremely popular in
Blue Earth and adjoining counties,
and he has friends all over the state.
But he owes it to himself and his
friends to make it clear that he is not
a candidate solely for the purpose of
defeating Governor Eberhart, and in
the interest of another man who is
keeping discreetly in the background
while protesting loyalty to the
present chief executive. Personally,
we believe Mr.. Weaver is too honor
able a man to permit himself to be
used as stalking horse for one who
is afraid to come out in the open and
make a square fight for the nominal
ton.

From the antics of few sapient
politicians in the twin cities, who
labor under the delusion that they
hold the center of the stage and that
all eyes are focused upon them, one
would imagine that the people of the
state-those who call themselves re-
publicans- lying awake nights
scheming and planning to secure a
bunch of delegates for Taft, Roose-
welt or La Toilette. These political
claquers even have the gall to demand
that the governor call an extra ses-
sion of the legislature to enact a
presidential preferential primary law,
so that it may be officially determined
which one of them has made the best
guess. g..

caine, morphine, and other habit

BY vote of 81 to IL the Ohio con-
stltutlonal convention, now in ses-
sion, has declared in favor of a pro-
posal that in civil cases a. three
fourths' majority of iurv NAV
render the verdict. Professor Henry
W. Elson, himself a member of the
convention, in an article in the Re-
view of Reviews, relates that the most
telling argument in favor of the three
tourths' verdict lay in the citing of
instances of jury-bribing. It was
shown in certain big city a great
traction company had an organiza-
ton for the sole purpose of fixing
jurors to serve in damage suits
against the company. A poor widow,
for example, whose husband is killed
by defective machinery in factory
while attending his duties, seeks
redress in the courts. Is it fair that
she must secure twelve men to give
her verdict, while the CORPORATION
with but one man, can chang" the
jury and render the verdict abortive?,

A Good Word For Caviar,


Caviar receives a clean bill in the
London Lancet. despite the fact that
it is regarded by many medical men as
''oily, indigestible and unwholesome"
Numerous analyses have been made Of
this sturgeon roe delicacy. which, &C.
cording to the writer. when averaged,
appears to be as follows: Water, 1922
per cent; protein. 1892 per cent; fat.
1859 per cent. and mineral salts, 7.57
per cent. 1t differs sharply from the
flesh of fish by containing a much
larger quantity of fat. Moreover. this
fat contains the peculiar oily phosphor-
us compound known as lecithin, which
is stimulant to metabolism, affecting
favorably the processes of nutrition.
Caviar is, in fact. highly nutritive.
and its digestibility has been deter
mined, the time taken for it's absorb
ton being relatively short. If there is
anything to be said unfavorably of
caviar it is that it's constituents err
slightly on the side of richness.

The newspaper publisher who runs
advertisements advising people to buy
farm lands, town or city property in
some foreign country is not only
knocking his home town, county and

are men in the newspaper business

WHY NOT TOM DAVIS !?

The Princeton Union is of the
opinion that Tom Davis of Marshall
would make an ideal candidate for
lieutenant governor. We are of the
opinion that the Union has another
guess coming on this proposition.

What is the matter with Tom Davis?
In the last three campaigns he was the
most effective speaker for the repub-
licans in the state That he is popu-
lar at home is evidenced by the fact
that he is the present mayor of the
beautiful little city of Marshall. Last
fall he was selected by the laboring
men to deliver the principal address
at the labor day demonstrations in
St. Paul, which goes to prove that he
has more than local reputation as
an orator. Why would he not make
an ideal candidate for lieutenant
governor? ii. III IN :....:s~s.

On the floor of the house of national

discharged under it's provisions.
This is state of affairs which should

IT. Is safe to infer that the farmers
among them who left Minnesota to
settle upon the wind-swept, treeless
plains OF western Canada would only
be too glad to return to the state
where good markets are easily
reached and where they would not
have to depend on one crop. Then,
again, Minnesota has never known a
failure of crops while in Canada there
have been many.
