ments, and his record in public life
is one that is without reproach. He
will be the nominee of Democracy,
and there is reason to believe that,
in the face Of the normal Republican
majority, he will be the next COVER
nor of Minnesota. He may be sup
ported by the voters of all parties,
and once he is elected he will fill the
gubernatorial chair with CONSPICUOUS
dignity and ability.-St. Peter Herald.
Think of it! Thirty-six car loads
of catalogues from one Chicago firm,
for Minnesota and the Dakotas. You
merchants who "don't believe in ad-
vertising," how are you going to COM
pete with firms that go after bust
ness in that way? Stop and consider
the enormous sums Of money those
catalogues are going to take out of
the country-right out of your ter
ritory, too-while you sit calmly
down and say, 81 am too well known
it amt necessary for me to ad
vertise." Better wake up and go af-
ter the business. With rural deliv-
cry and parcel post in successful
operation, the country merchants
should be able to put it all over the
'cat'' houses.-Inter-La Tribune.
Mr.. Keefe has served Redwood
County two terms in the house and
made an honorable and worth while
record. He is author of the law pro-
viding for the election of United

thy laws were put through by him

deserving the place he aspires.
1t gals some people to know that
julius Schmahl has no opposition for
the republican nomination for sec
rotary Of state, and for a fifth term.
Julius is deservedly popular and for
three reasons: He attends to the
duties Of the office faithfully and eff
fciently; he is courteous and accom-
modating to all who have business
to transact with his Office, and he
has never been affected with the di-
sease that is SO prevalent among Of
e-holders - swell headedness.-

An increase in the taxes of the
state of S8,000,0OO in one year is
enough to set the people of Mime
sofa to thinking that a change in the
management Of state affairs would
be good thing. Small wonder Gov
ernor Eberhart was taken with an
acute economic grip. But it came
rather late. The people would have
appreciated it more had it come ear
lier in his administration and saved
the extra taxation.-Albert Lea Trib-
une.
"A resident of the Senatorial Dist
rict for nearly third Of a century
and has never been candidate for
Office before" is the announcement on
the campaign cards handed out by
Major W. w. Smith of Sleepy Eye,
who is a candidate for the office of
state senator. The Major has host
of loyal friends in Brown and Red
wood counties, who want to see him
elected to the Office. knowing that his
long, successful and honorable bust
ness career makes him an ideal can
didate for the offce.-Comfrey Times.
Redwood Falls is to have semi
centennial and homecoming celebra-
ton on June 3, and 5. Redwood
Falls is naturally one of the pref
test villages in the state and in scenic
beauty compares favorably with Tay-
lors Falls on the st. Croix--Prince-
ton Union.
J. c. Apologize has sold his Can
non Falls Beacon to S. s. Lewis, and
two more papers have been consoli-
dated. One good paper, well patron
lied, is worth more 10 community
than a half dozen half-starved ones.
