William E. Lee of Long Prairie, James
Peterson of Minneapolis and Senator
Elwell Of the last named city as pros
pective candidates. Eberhart is quiet
ly laid on the highest political shelf,
and Iverson, who has been itching for
gubernatorial honors for many moons,
is almost neglected in his theme. Tom
squarely hints that Eberhart and his
handy man, Ed. Smith, should be bled
and turned out to grass for season,
land if we may attempt to fathom his
mind, he believes that Lee, who made
q good run last year, will carry off the
honors. There is still room for other
candidates and before the primaries
are called there may be dozen "bar-
kisses" all ready to fight for the place.
One thing is practically sure: we can
employ but one and the state wants
the best one Of the lot. Ir Lee shall

Speaking Of "Jim" Tawney, the
First district man handed the Wash
ington correspondents a package last
week when he branded as false the
story sent out that President Wilson
had demanded his resignation as a
member of the boundary commission
4 and that he had refused to do the
move act. Jim is not anxious to quit
but he has heard that word git
before and he is too old hand at the
game to ignore it Mr.. Tawney also
rises to correct statement to the
effect that his stipend is $4,000 q

W them to contend that they
are. They may be better than men
they are no stronger. They may have
higher ideals, but they do not more
consistently practice them. The old
time honored claim that they exercise
absolute and irresistible control over
men is absurd, and no more nearly
true than to say that men dictate, with
unlimited power, to women.
What a host of evil would lay at the
feet of the mothers Of the race were
this foolish charge true! Only re-
Gently a good preacher contended that
all the evil of the excessive use of IL
quors was due to women. AS though
they could seize in their little fists the
curse and crush it out of existence
All the corruptions of politics, all the
sin of state and nation, all domestic
turmoil, all moral abuse, all sneers at
religion are to be laid at the feet of
woman, if these claims are substan-
tiated.
The sexes have come to us hand In
hand. In the dawn of enlightenment,
when the first flush of understanding
was riding over the aisles of darkness,
man and woman came to the work of
the world, mutually helping, mutually
hindering. There was grossness In
each of them, there was light in each
of them. And back of it all there was
soul that could not rest, a breath
ing, living spirit that could not be
crushed down. But the woman reach
ed back for the man, and the man
reached back for the woman, and they
burdened each other on the ladder OF
life.
The tables might be turned with
more appropriateness. The good pas
tor, wanting to say to his audience
something that was true and helpful,
might have said: "Men brought the
world to what it is, men can right
things" If this powerful brute that
sits at the head of creation, arrogantly
boastful, despotically Indifferent, We're
only to rouse himself and go forth to
the combat, what power could with
