so broadened tLs American woman's
foot that she seeks to give it a narrow
look by wearing the long vamped CO.

FAKE A VACATION.

Some of the political writer's OF
the twin city papers are in need
of a vacation. They show evidence
of overwork and feyered brain,
declares The st. Cloud Journal Press.
One story Is that there is seri.
Gus break between Insurance Com
missioner Preus and the Eberhart
supporters, because Preus, who is
the nominee OF the republican party
for state auditor, took an active In
terest in assisting the other candi-
dates i'm organizing a campaign CON-
mittee that shall put up a winning
fight.
Preus, along with w. z. Lee and
the other nominees, Is now the duly
recognized representative of the party
and not OF Governor Eberhart or
any other faction. II Preus as
sisted, as he undoubtedly did, in
the wise selection OF a campaign
committee, he is only doing his duty.
Another story Is that Governor Eb-
erhart demanded for his support of
Lee that Lee endorse him for United
States senator against Senator sClapp
and that Lee declined TO make
any such alliance. -.
This is probably an Injustice to
Governor Eberhart II II is not,
Lee showed his good sense by re-
fusing to be a party to any such
deal. which would have been detri-
mental to both himself and Governor
Eberhart. "
Preus, who is one Of the brainy
men OF the state, can be expected
TO be loyal TO the party, and so
can W. E. Lee. ..
Governor Eberhart has been well
used by the party, and we believe
il is, rank injustice TO number
him among the trouble makers
The political writers should take
few weeks of. and their imagin-
airy troubles will be blown away by
the cooling breezes OF the lakes.
So far all the candidates Of the
party have shown wisdom and dis
erection, and the proper spirit OF
harmony.
