James Manahan of St. Paul, for
mer congressman-at-large from this
state, is the latest to announce that
he will be candidate for the repub-
lican nomination for governor. Mr..
Manahan is a good campaigner and
his friends claim that he will have
at least 10000 farmers solidly behind
him. If there is any substantial
basis for the claim. Mr.. Manahan
will prove formidable candidate.
With five or six candidates in the
field the man who polls 10000 votes
will come pretty near being nomi-
mated. It behooves the other aspir.
ants for the governorship to keep an
eye on red-headed Jim Manahan. He
will bear watching.

TILE PRINCETON UNION: THURSDAY OCTOBER %, 1915

For decade or more county op-
tion has been an issue in this state,
and at the last session Of the legls-
lature, after a sharp fight in both
branches, county option law was
placed upon the statute books. Under
the provisions of that law more
than half of the counties of the sta tie
have voted out saloons. besides
there is large area in the northern
part of the state where, under the
Federal statutes, Intoxicating liquor
is barred. The road house law,
also enacted at the last session of
the legislature, wiped out several
hundred saloons in the rural districts
of the state. Now there is move
ment on foot to start campaign for
statewide prohibition-either by
statutory enactment or by a-consti-
tutional amendment. The friends
of practical temperance legislation
do not view with favor the agitation
for state wide prohibition at this
time. They believe the county op-
tion law should be given fair trial
before attempting to secure the en-
actment or adoption of any further
radical temperance measures.
