T.. A. Caswell, clerk Of the supreme
court and Governor Burnquist locked
horns over the selection of republican
national committeeman from Minneso-
ia and Caswell won out, his candidate,
Senator Kellogg, being selected by the
state central committee over Fred II,
Carpenter of Minneapolis. The gov.
er1i6r charged Caswell's opposition due
to Burnquist's refusal to let Caswell
name appointments to be made, .es-
pecially that of dairy commissioner.
Caswell did not refute the claim of the
governor. In fact he stated that from
the time a candidate for this position
endorsed by himself and .others was
refused consideration, he has asked
nothing of the governor, as he took the
action Of the governor as refusing to
recognize party workers. 1t will
be remembered that Caswell was the
choice of the republican delegation to
the national convention at Chicago, but
retired, putting Congdon of Duluth
through for the committeemanship. I'm
fairness was charged in the selection
of Kellogg, as it was made by secret
ballot and not by roll call. The selec
ton at this time was to fill the posi-
ton made vacant by the death OF Mr.
Congdon. That there is a real chisn
accompanied by much bitter feelin,
ameng the republican leaders of tn
state Is quite apparent. And this pro

THE growing of tobacco near st. Cloud
appears to be decidedly successful, the
farm Of G. H. Lien Of West st. Angus
ia, netting 5000 per acre. There IS
said to be more work in connection
with raising the weed than number
of other crops, but it is asserted that
the remuneration we'll covers the extra
labor. Tobacco culture, it would seem,
is well worth the consideration Of the
farmers of Morrison county.
