William E. Lees advice to the
voters OF the state is to elect him
governor next November, for if they
do not he will force them to listen
to another campaign in two years
He will run in 1916, anyway, no
matter which way the election goes,
so what's the difference. But leav-
ing all jokes aside, the Long Prairie
man is going to be Minnesota's next
chief executive.

The bars may be forced to go
out OF business within the next
week or two unless they want to

In Tacoma whose licenses expire

At the city hall today the city
