1iis erer faithful rabbit's foot and isl
sue manifesto declaring again for
state effiriency and appointing = CONF
mittee To perform the important chore
Of devising ways and means Of bring
ing about this reform. Mr.. Iverson,
who, since the year Of our Lord 1908,
has been Minnesota's calm, courteous
and clever state auditor, pinned q mes
sage to his bonnet before he Tipped it
into the ring this week and that mes
sage was to the effect that Minnesota
has run riot on the expenditure OF
money and enforcement Of law
liquor statutes specifically specified
After promising a model and economi-
cal administration Of state affairs, II
elected, Samuel gives good measure BY
going squarely on record IN favor OF
votes for women. Mr.. Iverson will
|prove strong candidate. OF course,
in Northern Minnesota he must ex-
plain why he has opposed the sale OF
foreign bonds held by Minnesota, when
the funds obtained from such source
could be used in development work.

Sam Iverson declares that 1--WE need

Sam Iverson the present state audi
tor has announced his candidacy for
governor. The state does not hold an
other man who is more capable and
who understands the workings of the
state machinery better than Samuel
Iverson.-Lake Wilson Pilot.
AS to Mr.. Iverson's candidacy, the
field is free and any man has a right
to become candidate for governor.
The more the merrier, for it is well to
!, give the people as wide choice as
possible. We hope to see more candi-
dates, and we hope also to see lively
contest for the Democratic nomination
as well.-Duluth Herald.

1903 this week announces himself q
republican candidate for governor
which is good news if for no other
reason than that it at least gives the
people chance to get away from the
farce of the present state government
-Sanborn Sentinel.

Early gubernatorial booms are pro
verbally perilous. Mr.. Iverson, how
ever, thinks the call loud enough tx
demand that he make the adventure
Sometimes we have to have an excep

that way in his case. At all events
! if he fails he cannot charge it to lacl
of experience. Mortified News.
With Sam Iverson in the field it ].
Iquite likely that the progressives vii
be the more careful, the more inclined

4 State Auditor Iverson has an
nounced himself as a candidate fol
governor. He is an ideal man, a cap
able state auditor and would make al
liable governor-Madison Press.
/ If elected to the office Iverson seeks
he would probably insist on personally
being on the job. He would net dele
gate his duties to trusted Ethiopian
nor would he take orders from poll
teal boss. 1t would give one greater
confidence in government by the peo
pie if Minnesota had real Governor
Dawson Sentinel.
That Mr.. Iverson is both popular
and weIl-informed is conceded by-all
that he will be nominated is entirely
a different matter. The field already
contains three announced candidates
with several more in prospect. Mr.
lIverson is the most desirable of thu
|,announced candidates, and may be thu
best even if the field becomes larger
but if the foolishness of two years agt
tbe repeated and half dozen candi
dates get into the race, there will b
mo assurance that the best man vii
win. The primary is eight months a
