FOR GOVERNOR, CYRUS M. KING

The present condition OF the demo-
cratic party in this state is one la
mentable to every democrat. If Gov
ernor Hammond had lived things
would have been different. He would
have made an attempt to bring the
elements together, to unity and
strengthen the whole organization, too
long the prey of petty politics based
on personal selfishness. Alleged lead
ers have violated every principle Of
fundamental democracy, have used the
organization for purposes of personal
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT, have persistently
barred and prescribed wherever posi-
BILE every man who was not subserv-
lent to their schemes, and have mis-
represented the democracy at Wash
ington. Not single plan or party
betterment, not one constructive idea,
not the slightest indication of knowl-
edge or faith in what the party stands
for-has come from these alleged lead.
ers. It is time for change. First Of
all it is necessary to secure candi-
date for governor who stands for the
better things, for living democracy,
not a mere photograph Of the repub-
ican party, for party with a pur-
pose, for party with ideals and faith
and courage, fit to take a place with
the party organizations in other states.
Such leadershi p will be the announce
ment of regeneration, Of the beginning
of new deal, fair to all elements Of
the party, but whose main object is a
democratic party in Minnesota which
will be self-respecting and respected.
That is what the selection of Cyrus
M. King as the democratic candidate
will mean. It is critical time. The
defeat Of Mr.. King, though it now
seems most unlikely, would be about the
last straw for many who are waiting
and hoping for standard bearer that
trey can gladly follow, while victory
Cor Mr.. King will mean the dawning
of better day for the democracy Of
Minnesota.
Advices are that the democrats
throug hout the state are approaching
the situation and that those who wish
to see the party live, want to see it
amount to something, are supporting
Mr.. King.

nomination to succeed himself. Judge
Schaller, whose home is at Hastings,
was appointed to his present office by

office is most important one and
voters should give more attention to

is safe to say that Judge schaller will
as he deserves, be returned to office

WILSON POLICIES HIT
BY COL. JOHN G. CAPERS
Scathing Attack on Administration
Made Before Hughes Enthusiasts.

The eight-hour legislation, the ad-
ministration's Mexican and European
war policy. and the Underwood tariff
were subjects of a scathing attack by
Col. John G. Capers, former Commits
sioner Of Internal Revnue, at the mass
meeting of the WOmens Republican
Club and the League of Republican
State Clubs at 1902 H street last night
Referring to the argument that the
President has kept the country out of
war, Col. Capers said that there was
never any real danger of war with
Europe and that there has been actual.
If not political, war in Mexico. He
said that no European country could
afford to make war on the United
States, that the President knows It,
and that the war scare" was a pure
ly political vancouver to obtain votes.
He said that Switzerland, Holland,
Spain, Norway, and Denmark had been
saved from a war more imminent
Col. Capers said that "the President
would have been guilty of treason had he
thought that there was any danger OF
being embroiled in the European war and
yet allowed shipments of food, clothing
and ammunition to the very countries
which we might be in danger of combat
ting"
The eight-hour law he dubbed 'insin-
Cere" because OF the provision for it's be-
ing effective no sooner than January l,
and not operative at once. He said 1t
was a sop thrown out to the voter
which might be lodged or repealed after

Princess May Win Decree Because

CARRIED Woman.

(By the International News service.D
New York, Oct. 2.-Baby blue pajamas,
on an unidentified woman, have again
made the Princess Aimee Crocker-Ashe-
Ginigh-G Miskinoff almost eligible
for remarriage. Almost, because there
still remains the formality of Justice
Greenbaum signing a decree upon the
recommendation of a referee.
The referees report, recommending a
divorce for the princess, was filed today.
1t tells the story Of an unexpected visit
of the princess detectives to a Broadway
hotel suite in which the prince was Ian
guldly smoking a cigarette in his undress
uniform, while the other woman re-
clined on a divan.
The sleuths saw a flash of baby blue
pajamas as the woman jumped into a
closet and then closed with the princess.
Ruffled at being surprised at his leisure,
the Russian noble sprang at the raiders.

fists with equal rapidity. Hotel EN-

is through with it for good.

her lawyer. today. No 1 do not think
she will ever marry again. She wants to

incident in his life. 1t will vanish like

So ends another chapter of the ro-
nance of one Of this city's most inter-
esting matrons. Four husbands, an
adopted daughter who was an admirer
Of the fourth and a mysterious baby of
disputed parentage have been episodes in
the life story.
Although many years the senior of the
prince, Mrs. Gouraud married him secret
ly in London in 1914. After returning to
this city she denied the marriage, but
finally admitted it. They made their
home in this city.
