impressed Governor Eberhart that he
may incorporate demand for such
a law in his message to the coming
session of the legislature. The state

cation was made two months ago it

United States Senator Knute Mel
sons Washington job now has the
spotlight and the chances are that the
old warrior will have several rivals
when he again seeks return. James
Peterson of Minneapolis has an
nounced that he is candidate for the
place and word comes from Washing
ton that Congressman Lindbergh of
the Sixth district has thrown his hat
into the ring. Neither has any knowl-
edge as to whether Mr.. Nelson will
make another try or not, but the
chances are that he will. The present
state administration has advices to
ticket. The selection of a United
States senator this time will be by
popular ballot and this fact has in
iuenced Congressman Lindbergh and
James Peterson in their determine
ton. Peterson gained fame in his
debate with former Governor John
Lind during the Dunn-Collins fight and
Congressman Lindbergh has been
such an energetic progressive that
even Washington was compelled to
| give attention to his proposition to
Investigate the money trust. The
bets down this way are two to one on
Knute Nelson.

The Minnesota Anti-Saloon league
is making desperate efforts to break
into the campaign on it's old aggres-
sive basis and last week addressed
letters to the several gubernatorial
candidates requesting their position
on county option. w. E. Lee was the
only one to take decided stand. He
stood for the issue. Governor Eber-
hart ignored the letter of the league;
L. G. Spooner answered it orally to
the effect that the people knew where
he stood on the liquor question, and
Lieutenant Governor Gordon dictated
letter in which he said his platform
contained plank which in his opinion
fully covered the liquor feature of the
campaign. The plank was his new idea
of law doing away with the brewery
owned saloon. County option in Min
nesota has suffered two disastrous de-
feats and the average candidate for
gubernatorial honors does not want
to be encountered with it. 1t is not
that the people are against liquor
regulation, or even the wiping out OF
the traffic, but they resent the activi.
ties of a few who offer themselves az
those chosen to lead the people into
the path Of righteousness.

Governor Eberhart Issues Statement

10 the Press.
Governor Eberhart, in his first reply
to attacks made upon his administra-
ton by Lieutenant Governor Gordon
and other of his political opponents,
issued statement to the press charg-
ing that Gordon's failure to cooperate
with the administration resulted in
the defeat of reapportionment, read
justment Of railroad rates and the
statewide primary bill.
BY inference the governor charges
that Gordon and other members Of
the legislature brought about the de-
feat of beneficial legislation he had
recommended in selfish EFFORT to fur
Their their own political fortunes. The
governor points TO the record of his
administration and declares that he is
willing to stand or fall by It,"

The one man perhaps worst hit by
the prospective passage of primary
law and a reapportionmentGact, which
will be the two principal things for
the coming legislature to consider, is
Alva Eastman of ST. Cloud, who has
been generally picked as the Repub-
ncan nominee for congressman at
large. A statewide primary means
opposition and a reapportionment of
the state the wiping out of the Office
going. Mr.. Eastman, however, can
console himself with the knowledge
that he has company. Two weeks ago
it was happy family that held forth
at the state capitol. Every renomina-
ton had cinch. With a primary law
in sight it is different now. If such
prevails James A. Manahan, a La Fol
lette follower and an aggressive pro-
gressive, will go after Attorney Cen
eral L. A. Smiths scalp; George Lof-
tus, he of Shippers and Receivers as
ISOLATION fame, will oppose either
Judge Mills or Charles Elmquist of
the railroad and warehouse commits
sion, and Peter Schwarg of Dodge
Center is likely to make another try
at the state treasurership. Secretary
of State Schmahl may also have oppo-
sition. Inasmuch as publicity is one
of the features of the average primary
law the incumbents have the best OF
| it.

L. c. Spooner, the Morris candidate
for governor, says he wants to brand
as falsehood the story now in circu
lation that he is going to get out Of
the gubernatorial race and get into
the race for congressman. Mr.. Spoon
er moved his headquarters from Min
neapolis to st. Paul last week and ONE
Of his first official acts was to make
known the fact that he was in the
gubernatorial game to stay. eff this
keeps on" said Mr.. Spooner, there
will be some blood letting. I think
know where this congressional story
started" w. E. Lee, the third Repub
lican gubernatorial candidate, con
tinues to direct his campaign from
Minneapolis, but the report Is that hi
will move to the Merchants hotel il
ST. Paul as soon as the Legislature
convenes.
It may not come now, but Mtnnesc

happen the voters can thank Secre
