Minneapolis, Sept. Ex-Governor
Burnquist made the foregoing state
ment in response to a number Of in
quiries that had been made to him
relative to the opposition Of him of
l. A. Caswell, clerk of the Minnesota
supreme court
Mr.. Caswell, when shown the gov
ernor's statement, made this reply:
THE governor has never had any
communication with me on any mat
ter since last January. He never
mentioned the matter Of national
committeeship in his life"
Favors Carpenter for Chairman.
Governor Burnquist's reference to
Mr.. Caswell was made in connec-
tion with the governors announce
ment that he was in favor Of the
selection Of Fred Fl. Carpenter Of
Minneapolis to the Minnesota va
cancy on the Republican national
committee, caused by the death of
the late Chester A.. Songdon Of Du-
luth. Il understand" said the gov
ernor, that all the Minnesota Re-
publican factions are united on the
selection of Mr.. Carpenter, and un-
der the circumstances l believe it
only right that the place should go
to that city and that Mr.. Carpenter
should be recommended
Governor Burnquist's challenge to
I. A. Caswell, clerk of the Minnesota
supreme court, is accepted in pOliti-
cal circles as notice that the days
Of political trench warfare at the
state capitol are over and that. the
lighting hereafter will be conducted
without the use Of camoufage.
Governors Backbone All Right.
Friends of the governor at the
capitol and throughout the state
have known for long time that he
has been working under the handi-
cap of opposition, either secret or
open, of number Of state officials
and employees who have been seek
ing in various and devious ways to
defeat the successful carrying out Of
the governors policies. The COVER
nor has so persist emily refused to
recognize the activities of these DO
litical enemies that the impression
has been created in many quarters
that he was unable to cope with
them; that he lacked the backbone.
1t is explained that he sought to
cVduC al open rupture with any OIucT
state officials, feeling that so long
as he was doing his duty as he saw
it the public would not be misled
by the activities of his enterprising
opponents.
Words Prophetic.
Recent developments, however,
have made it plain, in the opinion
of the governor and his personal
friends, that a thoroughly planned
campaign of opposition to him has
been launched, with the hope of de-
feating him for denomination next
year and placing the Republican Or
ganization of the state in hands hos
tile to him. Convinced of the exist
ence of this organized opposition,
which has been manifested in many
ways and from many sources, the
governor has decided to force the
fight into the open and let the voters
of the state decide between him and
his opponents. The governors few
we'll chosen words addressed to Mr..
Caswell may be considered the first
gun in the skirmish for the guberna-
torial nomination next year.

MEAT NEEDED FOR CHICKENS
Fowls Confined In Yards or Pens Re-
quire Something to Take the
Place Of Insects.

Fowls confined in close pens, yards
or runs where they have little chance
to get insects will need some kind Of
meat. Grain will 10 supply enough
protein and mineral matter for best
results.
To supply this demand for protein
and mineral matter meat meal, meat
scrap or tankage is generally fed. Lay
ing hens especially need some of these
forms of feed. Young chickens will
thrive better if fed meat in some form
occasionally.
The best way to feed meat meal or
meat scrap is to mix it with wheat,
bran, rice bran, cOrnmeal, corn chops
or shorts. The mash should not be
very wet and sloppy, but should be
moist enough to adhere and thus save
waste of the fine particles Of meat.
Many poultry feeders feed meat
meal mash once a day, usually in the
morning, others give two or three
feeds Of this mash a week.
