ject and that he will follow it with
q fight against any attempt to incor-
porate q prohibition plank IN the
party platform. After that he will be
in the hands Of his friends and their
findings will decide whether it be
United States senator or governor.
However, he prefers to run for gov
ernor. Where Dan stands with the
present Democratic administration is
generally known, but this is the first
time he has reduced it to writing.
Dan, however, is not going to have it
all his own way. There are others
booked to go after the four jobs for
delegates-at-large and one OF them
undoubtedly will be the governor him
self. Another is James A. NOVEL;, a
st. Paul insurance man, who is not
exactly "stuck" on President Wilson
and his policies. Mr.. Lynch will want
to 90, and then there is State Insur-
ance Commissioner Works. Mr..
Works is not known as a candidate,
but friends seem DESTROYS of having
him present at the convention. In
the distribution of delegates-at-large
it was planned to have one from each
of the three big cities, st. Paul, Min
neapolis and Duluth, and the state at
large, but Dams "butt in" rather COM
plicates matters.
Sixth district congressional troubles
took a new turn when Jens ]. Opsahl
of Bemidji not only announced himself
as a candidate for Congressman Lind
bergh's job but parted with $50 for
the privilege of having his name
placed on the primary ticket. Mr..
Opsahl registered as Republican and
has the honor of being the first to file
for any congressional or state office.
He believes he is going to win. While
the Bemidji man is the first to put
his good money up as guarantee OF
good faith he is by no means the first
to announce his candidacy for COM
gress in that district. Former Con-
gresham C. B. Buchanan has that
honor, and I am told will do the
filing act in few days. Rumor has il
that about six candidates are in the
making for Congressman Lindbergh's
job. The latest aspirant is said to
be Thomas Sharkey of Staples, who
tried to get by on the Progressive
ticket last year.
Public Examiner Fritz has come out
fiat against statewide civil service
which, he says, is a delusion and q
snare. The one official to recommend
such so far is Labor Commissioner
Houk and his department is already
under civil service. Despite this fact
it is noticeable that when ones scalr
is wanted even in the labor depart.
ment those higher up do not want any
trouble getting it.
Speaker H. H. Flowers of the late
legislature has been flirting with fate
of late in the shape of much mentor
for about every state office on the list
outside of governor, and the king
makers are wondering where he vii

know of man in public life whose
state acquaintance is greater. The
last time he was in st. Paul Speaker
Flowers mentioned the lieutenant
governorship as being desirable.
It was expected that the last week
would see the removal OF Fred Sher-
man as state immigration commits
sioner and the substitution of an un-
known, but now it looks as if Fred
would be permitted to remain. After
threshing out the question for an en-
tire afternoon Governor Hammond
and the immigration commission de-
cided to pass the matter up and Mr..
Sherman will continue to draw his
salary for another month at least.
Governor Hammond, for some I'M
known reason, is against the reten-
ton of Mr.. Sherman, but at the meet
ing last week he was unable to bring
the other members of the board
around to his way of thinking.
