Adolph 0: Eberhart has announced
his candidacy for the Republican NOM
ination for governor of Minnesota.
This will be his third appeal to the
voters Of the state, though to be ex-
act if he is elected this time it will
be his fourth term as chief executive.
The first time he became governor by
reason Of the death of former Govern
or John A. Johnson. Governor Eber-
hart in his announcement names
George F. Authier, his private secre-
tary, as his campaign manager and
states that no political headquarters
will be opened. His statement to the
public is brief and simple to degree.
He deplorcs the attitude of those who
would villiiy and besmirch the fair
name of the state in their efforts to
unseat him and says his appeal to the
people will be through the medium of
the primary law and not by way OF
the old time dishonored boss ridden
convention.

The convention also endorsed c. M

Representative Hammond will make
the race for the Democratic nomina'

dorsed was communicated to Mr.
Hammond. He made this statement:
II did not seek the endorsement OF
the state conference and when the
delegates to it were selected could
not have been considered a candidate
for the nomination for governor.
Hammond Agrees to File.
"The large vote I received in the
conference is exceedingly gratifying.
I feel that l ought to respond with
the statement that I shall accept the
judgment of the state conference and
file for the Democratic nomination
for governor"
The big break at the conference
came when the credentials commit

half vote each. It was a signal for
the F. B. Lynch-Dan w. Lawler forces
to lock horns. And one of the storm
