Fatal Accident at DasseI,

Charles Skoog Of Dassel met with
a serious accident Sunday when he
was unloading a saw rig from wag-
ON. The apparatus weighing 500
pounds or more slipped and fell
square}y upon him, landing upon his
body In such a manner that the liver
was crushed against the back bone
and one lobe was ruptured for a
length Of six inches.
Mr.. Skoog was slowly bleeding to
death, when on Monday DR.. Donovan
took his patient to the Robertson
hospital where he was operated up
on. Mr.. Skoog passed thru the Or
deal nicely, but later began to lose
strength and died early Thursday
morning.-Litchfeld Review.

Democratic, Republican, Pro-

hibiti0niSt Candidates.
BY JAMES A. EDCERTON.

BY JAMES A. EDcERTON.
~HERE will be five candidates
for president before the voter
this year, a full hand-Wood-
row Wilson, Democrat; Will
liam Howard Taft, Republican; Theo-
dore Roosevelt, Progressive; Eugene
Victor Debs, Socialist, and Eugene
Wilder Chain, Prohibition. Most Of
these are old friends. as Governor
Wilson is the only one of the number
that has not been nominee for presi-
dent before Roosevelt ran as the Re-
publican candidate in 1904, Taft as the
Republican candidate in 1908, Chain
as the Prohibition candidate in 1908
and Debs as the Socialist candidate in
1900, 1904 and 1908. Running for pres
ident gets to be habit with some
men.
These five candidates give the voter
a wide range Of choice, varying all the
way from the water wagon to the
band wagon. OF course there may be
a difference Of opinion as to which
candidate is driving the band wagon,
but this is as it should be, for if we
knew to certainty the contest would

lose interest and no one could place
bets. Nobody gets excited over a
horse race that is dead sure thing.
When a man gets into the election
booth alone with his God and stub
pencil he can be thankful that he has
list of such able citizens to pick
from. OF course four Of them will not
be elected, but don't tell any Of them
beforehand that he Is to be one Of the
rejected, for he would not believe it.
There Is something about running for
president that makes every nominee
harbor the secret notion that he is the
peoples chosen and anOinted.

past twelve or fifteen years, and some
of them longer. Chain is Chautau-

son has been speaking before college
societies and learned and civic bodies
for many years. while Roosevelt and
Taft have made enough whirlwind
tours of the country to give a large
part Of the populace a chance to see
and hear them in action One of the
refreshing thugs about these 1912 can
didates IS that they are all simple and
frank. There is little Of the old polit-
1cal trick of concealing thoughts, bal
ancing statements and befogging the
issues. The American people will not
stand for that sort of thing now.
They would rather a speaker should
make breaks than lack in candor and
directness. The public wants straight
from the shoulder utterance without
poses or trimmings.
Practical Idealists.
Putting aside partisan bias and look.
Ing at these candidates simply as men,
they are a gratifying exhibit of Ameri-
canism. Democratic institutions are a
distinct success when they produce
such leaders. Clean morally, mentally
and physically, ready to give utterance
to the faith that is in them and to fight
for their principles, idealists and vet
practical men Of affairs, these ,candi-
dates reflect credit on our national
character and are Of the best type of
American gentlemen. The most graft
flying thing about them is that they are
typical, not geniuses removed from tho
crowd, but expressing the average mar
at his best. The genius has his place,
but not in executive position. The
need there is for common sense, hon.
esty, public spirit and level headed.
