that the letter sc" is the most I'M
fortunate letter in the English al
phabet, because it is always out of

danger and in hell all the time For
some reason he overlooked the for
Inmates of the letter. We call his at
tention to the fact that "e" is never
in war, and always in peace. 1t is the
beginning of existence, the commence

Without it there would be no meat,
no life, no heaven. 1t is the center
of honesty, makes love perfect, and
without it there could be no editors,
news or hopes.-Fairmont Sentinel.
1t begins to be more and more ap-

never can be finally settled without
an appeal to me, personally.'-Du

When one plays the game of poll
tics-and state politics is peculiar
game-it is well to play according
to the rules and take your first de-
feat good naturedly as well as loyal
ly. Candidate Lee is just finding this
out, and he is wishing that his fore
sight was as good as his hindsight.-
Monticello News.
According to the Long Prairie
Leader, all newspapers that do not
support the editors dad, Bill Lee, for
Governor, are, of course, corporation
papers" This sort of clap-trap argu-
ment is simply unanswerable. Instead
Of harmonizing and uniting the par
ty, Mr.. Lee and his fool friends seem
determined upon doing everything
possible to stir up more trouble and
antagonize many Republicans who
might otherwise have held their noses
while they voted for him. Candidate
Hammond no doubt feels quite COM
Portable in the prospect of receiving
invaluable aid in his campaign from
Candidate Lee himself-Brainard Dis
patch.
A great number of the supposed
Lee supporters have apparently sailed
into a calm. From a disinterested OBJ
servers view of the political marine
it seems that those getting out Of
the pacific rest are taking the course
for the Hammond harbor.-Oklee
Herald.
The Lee machine rattles around
| like a cobble stone in a hogshead roll
ing down steep incline, just as soon
as Governor Eberhart steps outside
Of the state. 1t is hard to please
some people.-Le Sueur News.
Governor Eberhart, who was blamed
by the Lee enthusiasts for every
thing from high taxes to hog chol-
era, isn't likely to display any great
amount Of enthusiasm in supporting
Lee.-Olivia Times.
We are opposing Lee for the rea-
son that we believe him to be part
and parcel of the old gang that has SO
long had control of the state-who
has broken away from one machine
only to build up another equally as
much of drag. The state needs
something the Republicans have failed
to give, and Candidate Lee wears the
brand.-Hibbing Mesaba Ore.
Governor Eberhart followed the
Johnson policies in the state admin
istration, and now comes Congress
man Hammond, who says he will car
~ out the Eberhart policies and the
same fellows that fought Eberhart
are now supporting Hammond Con-
sistency. thou art strange anomaly
in Minnesota state politics.-St- Peter
Tribune.
Although United States Senator
Moses E. Clapp's term Of Office does
not expire for two years, there are
