GOSSIP OF THE PRESS


which are purely personal, the pub
Usher Of the Globe has not been an
admirer or supporter Of Governor Eb-
erhart or his administration. But the
Governors fair, candid and manly
action in accepting the situation and
pledging his support to Mr.. Lee show
him to be good loser. That will
do much to raise the Governor great
~ in the estimation of the public. All
the world admires good sportsman,
but nobody has any use for crouch.
-Worthington Globe.
The News prefers a good man to
a renegade Republican any day. 1t
will support w. S. Hammond for
Governor, just as it did A. O. Eber-
hart. This paper is for men, not
partisan politicians, who are selfish
in the full sense Of the word.-Le
Sueur News.
There have been many reasons
given by the friends of Governor Eb-
erhart for his defeat at the recent
primary election. All are agreed that
the principal one was that the peo-
pie did not seem to want him for
governor any more. This seems to
be the most reasonable one.-Mah-
nomen Pioneer.
The Times is a Republican paper
and is ever ready to support Repub-
lican principles and Republican can
didates, if they be good men and good
Republicans, but it owes no allegiance
to candidates who call themselves Re-
publicans, but have been guilty of
treason to their own party in the
past. A good out-and-out Democrat
looks better to US than renegade
Republican. We like thoroughbred,
whatever the breed, but have no use
for mongrel.-Preston Times.
We congratulate the Democratic
party in Minnesota upon the nomi-
nation of Congressman Hammond for
governor. Fate gave them an aw-
full scare, but finally decided to be
better to them than they deserved
Hibbing Tribune.
No doubt Game Warden George
Wood heaved sigh of relief when
he saw that the returns were all for
William E. Lee. Despite all that has
been said and done, Mr.. Eberhart
could never have been expected to
feel kindly toward Wood after H. A.
Riders letter was published, the one
raising his salary and asking for
contribution to the campaign fund.
Naturally that strained the entente
cordiale between him and the COVER
nor's henchmen. Wood ought to be
handsomely rewarded by Mr.. Lee if
he becomes governor. He helped Mr..
Lee wonderfully and most people who
have followed his ups and downs are
convinced that he really wants to be
game warden and have people with
high power rifles miss him from am
Virginia Enterprise.
Nothing favorable can be said of
the Lee campaign. 1t was dirty
one all the way through.-Anoka
Union.
lee will have the support of his
party" says the Minneapolis Trib-
une. Not knowing what party is
Lees party, we can't say as to that.
But we do know that the Democratic
party and at least one-half of the
Republican party will vote for Ham
mond.-Austin Transcript.
If the voters of Minnesota choose
Mr.. Hammond for their next COVER
nor, as we firmly believe they will,
this state will have man in the exc
cutive chair of whom it may be
proud. He is a man that will lend
dignity TO the Office and to the state
he represents; he is man who will
do things for the good of all the
people of all parts Of the state, and,
in doing that, he will be doing things
for the best interests of the state as
a commonwealth that should lead all
of its sisters. He will be a Demo
cratic governor, but not in the par
tisan sense.-Crosby Crucible.
The first time man kisses wom-
an other than his wife, he feels as
sneaking as farmer when sending
not only Montgomery-Ward, but
& Co. But the husband and farmer
soon become hardened and patronize
