"MAN OF MYSTERY"

The Minneapolis Journal refers to
our congressman, who is breaking in
to the gubernatorial contest, as the
mysterious Mr.. Lindbergh." The
Journal wonders what his wonderful
plan is to save the taxpayers of the
state over 100000 a year.
Let the Journal refrain from get
ting unduly and uselessly excited. 1t
will never find out
Lindbergh is not going to tell If
he did, the chances are that he would
repudiate it before the campaign is
over. His saving sense is in silence.
He has had experience, and his strong
point is in opposing what somebody
else proposes.
When he occasionally votes for
some measure in the house, in a mo-
ment of forgetfuness, he votes against
it when it comes back from the senate
with slight amendments. Thus he
keeps his balance in Sinking respon-
sibility.
When he first started out as con-
gresham, when Taft was president,
he had appointments of postmasters
at his disposal. 1t is charged that in
few instances that he was called
upon to act, that he had been profuse
in his promises, and was having the
devils own time to straighten out the
tangle.
He is clever politician, and he

martyr. 1t was very cunning coup
and it worked.
If he should become governor he
could not we'll escape the responsible
ty, and there would be the ivliest
mixup in appointments ever seen in
the state. Van SAINT would be far out
classed as mixer of trouble for him
self.
Whatever his carefully concealed
plan is, he would never get it adopted
by the legislature, and if he should he
would probably veto it.
Up in this district it is believed that
he could not be induced to vote for a
bill which he had himself prepared
and introduced in congress.
But great many people like this
pose of righteousness, and he will
receive strong support at the polls.
Lindbergh would have been a won
derful success as the leader of some
occult society, where weird mystery
could be invoked to an unlimited de-
gree.-St. Cloud Journal Press.

VERY DEFINITE.

"In connection with any gov
eminent we must recognize that
the industrial forces are vital to
every one of US. By industrial
forces l mean the work of all who
serve in any capacity necessary to
the general welfare. These forces
are entitled to first place in our
economic considerations, as well
as to stand first in the benefit of
social results. They have not,
however, received any such bene-
fit nor even equal benefits with a
majority of those who render no
service to mankind. On the con-
trary, the industrial forces have
always been the prey of un-eco-
nomic practices and subject to
speculative despoil. False dealing
has gone to such lengths that to
state what it now costs US would
seem like an exaggeration to those
who have not taken time to ex-
anime and analyze the facts. Our
economic forces in their yield to
human welfare are greatly under
what they would be in we'll reg

A DIFFERENT PROPOSITION.

\ We await with much pleasure
the Forthcoming edition of the
Sank Centre Herald. Frank Eddy
we fancied, completely exhaust
ed his vocabulary of denunciation
(and it is indeed a lengthy one)
on Congressman Lindbergh last
fall. Within the week the Con-
gresham has announced himself
candidate for Governor. We are
anxious to see if Frank can "come
back" without repeating.-Lu-
verne Journal.
There will be no denunciation, Mike,
me boy. Lindbergh running for Gov
ernor and Lindbergh running for con-
gress are two separate and distinct
propositions. We opposed him for
congress because we did not consider
him Republican and regarded him as
opposed to the Republican policies,
both foreign and domestic, but the
political mollycoddles have practically
eliminated partisanship out of state
politics and a Governor has nothing
to do with any of the national policies.
We have always regarded Lindbergh
as theoretical, dreamy politician and
his schemes visionary and impractical.
Had he practised in his business af-
fairs, what he preached in politics, he
would be no better off financially than
the average country editor, instead of
being comfortably fixed. If Mr.. Lind
bergh is the kind of a governor the
people of Minnesota want he is the
kind of governor they ought to have.
1t is up to them and we don't believe
they want or need any advice from US.
Besides Mr.. Lindbergh has not yet
filed for the nomination.

ment, given out with such shrewd, Sc

advertising which, if he had been

would have cost him ten thousand dol

gramic utterances have started the
populace to specializing as to what he
means; they are all wondering where
he is at and, no doubt he himself is
