time that ne mad an opportunity to
register his vote on this question in the
Legislature he voted against it. Have
we not right to assume that he merely
plays this issue now because it is popular
and that he hopes to be elected on this
issue? In judging of what candidate
will do if elected to Office we have right
not only to take his word for what he is
going to do, but we have right to look
to his past record to see if he has in the
past done those very things that he now
so glibly urges and defends. Economy"
is big plank in his platform. His
record as member of the State Fair
Board showed that he favored the
issuing of passes to the heads of the
departments Of the state and subordinate
officers and employees. He also favored
the entertainment of the visiting legis-
lators at the fair of 1909 at the states
expense. The sum of 1921 was expended
in salaries for the eight who entertained
the legislators and the further sum of
$500 was expended for luncheons and
dinners. With such record as this,
will Mr.. Lee be able to convince the
average voter that he is sincere in his
economy talk or is he simply using it as
political expedient to gain office?
The day for strong partisanship is past
and the voters should cast their votes for
the best man and the best candidate for
the office of Governor is unquestuionably
Winfield Scott Hammond.
With the fight in the Second Con-
gressional District almost coming to
close, it is of vital Importance that the
voters look we'll into the qualifications
of the men who aspire to the high Office
of Congressman. Do they want man
representing them who will oppose
President Wilson at every tourn or do
they want some one who will uphold
Wilson's policies? 1t is generally con-
coded by all fairminded men that more
constructive legislation has been passed
during Wilson's administration than in
UlC odl1AC Op0CC VI Cll1lC ally OCLC1
presidents administration. President
Wilson cannot be too highly commended
for averting war with Mexico. He has
at all times held to a true course, has
gone in the direction the people as a
whole wished him to 60 and has had in
view goal, the reaching of which would
mark new epoch in human progress.
Do you wish to endanger these policies,
do you wish to again throw the admins
tration of the nations affairs into the
hands of the scheming politician? If
you do not, the only sane and safe course
to pursue is to vote for Jean Flittie for
Congressman who makes his appeal to
the voters on Wilson's policies. We have
known Mr.. Flittie for the past 20 years
and have always found him liberal in his
views, progressive in his ideas and alb
solutely frank and honest.
New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1914-10-28

By the time the next number of the
Review is published the voters of the
State will have registered their choice
for state, judicial, legislative and county
offices. 1t may therefore, be not amiss
to discuss impassionately the qualifica-
tons Of some of the candidates who are
seeking the support OF the voters of the
State.
The most important office to be filled
this fall is that OF Governor. Winfield
Scott Hammond of St. James is the
standard bearer Of the Democratic party
and William E. Lee of Long Prairie is the
Republican nominee. Fortunately for
the voters of this County the Democratic
nominee is either personally or by repu-
tation well-knowte to every elector in
this section. For the past 8 years he has
been the Congressman of this district.
Altho the district is normally Republican
by from five to ten thousand votes, Mr..
Hammond has never lost out in any
campaign since he was elected for the
first time. This in itself is the highest
compliment that can be paid the man.
His close attention to the duties of his
office and his answering loyalty to the
principles of good government have
endeared him to such an extent to the
voters of this district that they have
always come Loyalty to his support.
Mr.. Hammond has none Of the at
tributes of the politician; he is an
able and courteous and affale gentleman,
but the support that he has secured he
has won by true merit. He is broad
minded enough to accept good and sound
views and ideas from his political oppo-
nents and showed this very plainly when
he favored Governor Eberhart's plan for
efficiency and economy in the admins
tration OF the States affairs. He has
always proven himself honest and sincere
in private as we'll as in public affairs and
the voters of the State can rest assured
that, if elected, he will give to our great
commonwealth, good, clean business
administration.
We are not personally acquainted with
Mr.. Lee and SO far as we have been able
to find out his private life stands the test
OF close inspection and scrutiny. He has
IN this campaign accused his opponent
Of being the tool of certain interests.
Isn't it usually sign of weakness to
thus play on the prejudices Of the voters
to- gain their support? Mr.. Lee is now
an ardent county optionist. The only

letter received by Postmaster A. c.
Norris from the supervising architect
In Washington asking for informa ton
on several points which should have
bearing upon the time when the peo-
pie here may reasonably expect oper-
atoms to begin on the new govern
ment building. One thing Of interest
that developed in the reply of the
postmaster is that the receipts of this
postoffice have just doubled in the
past ten years and there seems fair
prospect Of another doubling at least
in the ten years to come

Of this city, met with a peculiar acci-

the loss Of two toes and yet leaves
him in better control OF the foot than
for many years before. These toes
bent downward by reason Of an ac-
cidental cut some years ago across the
top Of the foot weakening the Ega-

on the edge Of the stairs and his weight
coming suddenly upon them snapped
the bones and there was nothing to do
but to amputate.
