State Auditor Issues Statement
d. Advocating More Economy and
Greater Efficiency.

State Auditor, Samuel G. Iverson
has announced his candidacy for the
Republican nomination for governor.
In statement accompanying his an
nouncement Mr.. -Iverson declares for
economy in the administration Of the
state government and for the strict
enforcement of all laws without re-
spect to persons. ~. a.
Mr.. Iverson practically presents his
platform in one paragraph, although
his statement is more elaborate. He
emphasizes the fact that intelligent
economy means: "Cut out every need
less expense; reduce taxation; protect
public health, develop water resources
and promote manufacturing and ship
sources: to build up agriculture and
farm life; to defend wage earners and
salaried men, women and children,
from the greed and avarice Of soulless
employers; to aid in reclaiming and
settling unoccupied lands; to foster
such transportation laws as will give
every community, large or small, an
equal chance for existence, and in
general to inculate the doctrine of the
Golden Rule among our citizens in
all vocations.' '.'-
This is mighty strong, clear and
definite PLATFORM, and no man is bet
ter acquainted with the needs of Min
nesota than is Sam. Iverson, and we
know of no man in, the Republican
party who is better equipped by ex-
perience and knowledge to become
governor Of this state than he. Mr..
Iverson has. wide circle Of friends
throughout the state, Of all political
beliefs. who wish him we'll in his
campaign, Ill. "t ~. .

st. Paul Unions Pass Series of
Resolutions Against Minnesota
Socialist for Enmity.

The st. Paul Trades and Labor AS
sembly and the Building Trades Coun-
Gil Of that city have passed strong
resolutions condemning the Mime
sofa Socialist" the official organ of
the Socialist party in this state, as
hostile to organized labor and un-
worthy of the countenance, support
or tolerance of any true trade union
ist,'
These resolutions grew out Of a
printed reference in a recent issue Of
the minnesota Socialist" to an in
troductory speech made by John F.
Walsh, president of the st. Paul
Trades and Labor assembly, when
presenting Clarence S. Darrow to a
mammoth meeting of citizens in that
city, in which the Socialist sheet ridi-
culed and made light of Mr.. Walsh 8
day purpose.
President Walsh had said: Union
labor asks only fair opportunity to
be employed and a fair recompense
for it's toll, with decent working con-
ditions, due protection from injury
and equality with other citizens be-
fore the law" The MINNESOTA So
cialist" characterized "such stuff as
this as sickening." It otherwise ridi-
culed the position of the American
Federation of Labor.
The big central bodies Of st. Paul
repudiated the articles in the Min
nesota Socialist and followed the
resolutions by making charges against
its editors, or at least two of them
who are members of the Topographic
al union, Juls Anderson and Irving
S. Draper. The matter will be fully
aired at the next meeting of the st.
Paul Typograp phical union. The
resolutions were adopted by the st.
Paul Trades and Labor assembly and
the Building Trades council by almost
unanimous vote in each case
