to vote so as to overtax himself and
his eighbors, and if he does so
vote simply because the candidate
belongs to the same race or lives
in the same town as he does, it only
shows that he does not do much SER
ious thinking.
~ make these observations here
at Willmar because this is the home
Of one Of my opponents in this cam
paign, and when I have anything to
say about man say It directly to
his face. 1t is not my intention, Of
course, to speak Of Mr.. Thorpe as a
man or banker, but as a candidate
for office his record as state sena-
tor is a public matter and it is not
only my right but my duty to call at
tention to that record and it's mean
ing. / know that Mr.. Thorpe is will
ling that l should do this because he
gave out an interview when he filed
saying that he proposed to run on
his record. He probably thinks,
that record is good and would strive
to duplicate it in Washington, if
elected. But whether his record in
Office is good or bad is matter for
the voters to determine.
81 have shown you how important
it is for the people themselves to
control law making, and thus con-
troll all forms Of taxation, tariff
trusts, and railroad rates. You
know that under the old convention
system and the old method of cleo
ting and controlling men in office,
it was impossible to prevent the pol
itical bosses from making all the
laws so as to serve big business and
special interests. For many years
we have all known that the United
States Senate had so many million
aires and railroad lawyers and trust
agents among its members that it
was almost impossible to pass a
law that would give the ordinary
man a fair show, or stop the steal
ing Of grafters. Progressives every
where were striving to reform the
senate by compelling the election of
senators directly by the people, in
stead of by corrupt or foolish men,
bers Of the different state legisla-
lures, and to extend the direct pri-
mary principle to all Offices.
During the 1909 session of the
Minnesota Legislature bill was in
troduced, (Senate File No. 1922
which provided that nominations
should be made by delegates in con-
ventions instead Of by the people at
the primaries. This bill applied to

MANAHAN ATTACKS
CHIEF OPPONENT
Extract from Manahan'S Defiant
Challenge in His ''Enemy'S
Country

The first rally of the progressive
forces at Willmar in the campaign
was the speech of James Manahan,
which was briefly mentioned in our
last issue. The opera house was
we'll filed, and for being in the 'ene-
my's country" Mr.. Manahan re-
ceived generous amount of ap-
plause. The size of the audience
seemed to indicate that people are
interested and will again attend pol
itical meetings. The Willmar Military
Band played several selections be-
fore the meeting and that may ac-
count in part for the crowd, but that
they remained attentive listeners for
two hours and twenty minutes was
entirely due to the ability Of the
speaker and the interest they took
in the subject discussed. Mr.. Mana
hans speech in part was as follows
"Inasmuch as law and government
affect the personal rights and well
fare of every citizen, and inasmuch
as the people measure their own
taxes and the cost Of living when
they cast their votes at the ballot
box, no candidate for office has the
right to ask or expect mems votes or
sentimental grounds. Suffrage anG
it's exercise are a stern business pro-
position. Voters should consider
only the effect Of their votes or
themselves and their country as 6
whole. No consideration should be
given to what any candidate may
personally want or even need. Every
candidate should be judged by wha1
he stands for as shown by his rec.
ord. No man should be supported
or opposed because Of his nationality
or residence. No voter has the righ

special taxes ten years ago amounted
to $5,050,674, and in 1911 they had
increased to $11, 582,9O7.
"And what is Governor Eberhart
doing about it9 Why he is attending
pink teas, and Chautauqua confer
ences in New York, and banquets on
the Pacific coast.
minnesota is today in control of
the so-called interests and condi-
tons here are just about as bad as
they were in Wisconsin when La Fol-
lette took hold, or as they now are
in New York.
"These figures were for 1910. They
were even higher in 1911.
To prove Gov. Eberhart's loose
business methods, Mr.. Lee cited a
number of instances Of money paid
out from the contingent fund. This
fund, provided by the state for ex-
traordinary state expenses, Governor
Eberhart, claimed the speaker, seems
to think is an addition to his own SAL
airy. For instance, there was 81, 300
charged to travelling expenses, over
$500 to clipping bureau, and other
items including cut flowers and taxi
cabs. Many Of these items are not
certified to by the Governor but by
his stenographer, which Mr.. Lee
claimed was an officer not recognized
by the law. It is not the amount of
this money misappropriated as much
as the evidence that they furnish of
loose business methods which Mr..
Lee criticized. Many Of the vouch-
ers are not given in itemized form
nor do they say for what services
they were paid. He cited one item in
which the Governor attempted to JUS
tify himself, in which means had
been provided for the taking Of an
insane woman from New York to Du-
luth. Mr.. Lee stated that there was
nothing in the voucher to show why
the expenditure should be borne by
the state Of Minnesota. He did not
criticize the purpose, Of which he
was ignorant, but the method of
drawing the money out Of the states
treasury.
eve have some big boards that ex-
pend hundreds of thousands of doll
ars. Take the drainage board, for
instance. The governor is an ex-of-
icio member and it is supposed to al
low bills, subject to his approval. I
have here copies Of the minutes of
several meetings Of this board, where
the. governor is recorded as being
present. have proof that he was
not present at these meetings. l will
just read you one instance"
Here Mr.. Lee read a report show
ing the governor to be present at a
meeting, and then quoted twin city
newspaper dispatches showing that
he was in reality, attending some af-
fair on the Pacific coast when the
meeting was held.
"To put the case mildly" contin-
ued Mr.. Lee, "this is classifying pub
lie records. "The fact is that if Gov
ernor Eberhart were depending on
your vote and my vote to renomin-
ate him, he would not dare to run
the governors Office as he is run
ming it. He is depending on the state
machine. He is depending on the con-
trolled vote-the vote controlled by
the breweries and saloons to renom-
mate him."
Mr.. Lee closed with a pledge that
if he was elected Governor he would
do his utmost to clean out the state
house from the grating politicians
We believe that if the people Of the
state generally could all " hear Mr.
Lees message, there would not be
the least doubt Of his receiving the
republican nomination.

dressed the Warner employees at their
annual banquet several weeks ago. and
on the same night there was an an
nouncement Of the welfare plans prev
iously referred to.
The profit sharing plan provides for
the careful recording of each indivi-
dual's special achievements during the
year. and such who may qualify as
merit employees will participate in a
merit fund distribution according to
certain established standards.
This merit or profit fund. to be de-
termined at the close of each calendar

company has met all expenses includ-
ing reasonable depreciation. interest
and preferred dividends. plus an addi-
tional amount equal 20 four per cent

year.
The fund produced thereby Is TO be

PREFERENCE TO LEWES

L. T. Layton, a former Whining
tonian and member of the brokerage
lrm of L. T. Layton and Company,
Of 742 Real Estate Trust Building.
Philadelphia. was in Wilmington yes
terday afternoon i'm connection with
the establishment of the Neptune
Fishing Company's plant in Lewes
on a site recently bought near the
iron pier. Mr.. Layton said that
Charles e. Milligan will have charge
of the Lewes plant as manager. and
is thoroughly experienced in the men,
haden fishing business. Work is to
begin Immediately on the new plant,
Mr.. Layton says. and it will be made
one of the most complete along the
eastern coast. Orders have been given
to Mr. Milligan to give the preference
to Lewes i'm the purchase Of supplies
and the company also will give pref
erence to Lewes workmen and VIII
keep a large account in Lewes banks.
Speaking of opposition the company
encountered, Mr. Layton said:
$50 much opposition over the Nep-
tune Fishing Company building,
fish plant at Lewes is uncalled for.
This company has simply purchased
n private beach front site there, and
will erect and operate an up-to-date
fish liant. This will necessitate the
expenditure of considerable capital
and the employing of a great many
men, and ] am authorized to say for
the president, Mr. Harvey c. Sickler,
that his company will, when possible,
buy material and supplies from the
Lewes contractors and storekeepers,
and give employment to the laboring
element there regardless of the at
titude of number Of dissatisfied per-
sons. The business people and wage
earners of Lewes should welcome this
industry. as they must necessarily
spend a great deal of money in
Lewes which would prove beneficial
to everyone in the town.
Men prominent in the fertilizer bus
mess and connected with financial IN
siitutions are officers of the Neptune
Company, and it is understood that j.
Pierpont Morgan is back Of it all. The
location of the industry at Lewes.
some persons point out, may attract
the attention of Mr. Morgan, the great
est fnancier in the country, to the
natural advantages of Lewes as sea
port and may result IN the long iooh-
ed for development Of that Town into
an important shipping center
Through Mr. Layton an opportunity
is to be given to Delawareans to in
vest i'm the new company. The direc-
tors have sufficient capital within
themselves but an arrangement was
made by which L. T. Layton & Co.
are able to offer a limited amount
OF this stock for immediate sale. The
Capitalization is S1.2OO00O, divided
into 100000 of seven per cent cum

ued at 907 million dollars, the figures
at hand seem to clearly indicate that
the total for the current year will pass
the billion dollar line.
That the total exports of the year
will exceed two billion dollars in value
is equally apparent. The figures for
the nine months ending W.T.. March
are Iii million against 1886 million
in the same months of last year, indi.
eating for the full fiscal year a total
of approximately 21a billion dollars.
Manufactures, raw materials for use
in manufacturing, foodstuffs and mis-
cellaneous articles form, in the order
named, the articles contributing to
the "a billion dollar expectation OF
merchandise indicated for the fiscal
year which ends with next month.
Comparing the exports by great
groups in the nine months ending
with March, 1912, with those of like
period in 1911, manufactures increased
from $50 to 730 million dollars. of
which latter sum 4S2 million dollars
represented the value of manufactures
ready for consumption. In the same
time manufacturers raw materials de-
creased from 622 to 615 million dol.
lars, while foodstuffs increased from
2S7 million to 3S9 million dollars.
Should the rate of expectation main
tanned in the month of March con-
tinue during the three remaining
months of the fiscal year, manufac-
lures would show for the twelve
months ending with June a total of
one million dollars; crude materials
for use in manufacturing 800 mill
ion; foodstuffs, $50 million, and mis-
cellaueous articles, a total of mill.
ion, the gains in comparison with the
year being approximately
100 million dollars in manufactures
and 50 million in foodstuffs, while
raw materials for use in manufactur
ing may show slight loss due to the
lower prices of cotton in 1912.
Ten great classes supply about 20
per cent Of the manufactures exported
from the country. Stated in the or.
der of their value in the current fiscal
year so far as elapsed they are: Iron
