CBNSURE CASWELL
SUPREME COURT CLERK GETS
Il. MANY BRICKBATS AT HIS
HEAD.
STATE PRESS RoASTs PARTI.
cIPANTs IN RECENT REPUB-
LICAN ROW.

Echoes of the warning factions in the
ecent meeting of the Republican State
Central Committee are being heard
thruout the length and breath of the great
state of Minnesota.
Irving A. Caswell, clerk of the State
Supreme Court, is the target for many
brickbats, while Senator Frank B. KEEL
logg is receiving fine bunch of bouquets,
according to William T. Bell, political
writer for the st. Paul Pioneer Press.
That is about what Casweu ex-
pected," says the Pioneer Press article.
He is satisfied, Kellogg ought to be
satisfied, and the Republicans generally,
except Mr.. Carpenter, the defeated
candidate, and his immediate friends,
proclaim their happiness over the out
come, so it is difficult to see where any
one else has kick coming.
Continuing the Pioneer Press says:
Carpenter is Given Advice.
The circular letter telling OF his woes
which Mr.. Carpenter sent to the Re-
. publicans has drawn hurricane fire of
Ssarcastic comment in the past week.
Che PiHager Herald says that good Re-
npublicans, such as Mr.. Carpenter claims
to be, should not 60 to so much trouble
In an effort to start real row.
The Dawson Sentinel advises him to
grin and bear it, and there are scores
of similar comments in other state
papers. If the letter was intended to
amuse the state editors and politicians
it was acomplete success, If its purpose
was to elicit sympathy for Mr.. Car
penter, it has failed completely.
~ Not All Agreed. -
Opinion is not all ore way, However.
The Pine River Sentinel Blaze says it
J is to be deplored that Senator Kellogg
allowed the use of his name; that it is
impossiblesfor him to hold all the jobs
that the state has to offer, and that it
would have shown good judgment on
his part to have permitted scme one else
to share in the honor. To us in this
neck of the woods it looks like de-
iberate attempt to give the state to the
Democratic party, the Sentinel Blaze
says in conclusion:
The St. Peter Free Press blames both
sides, declares that the whole affair was
bungled, and that apparently all those
on either side cared for was to gain
personal advantage.
Any Party Will Do.
The Redwood Falls Sun seems sur
I prised that Victor Power of Hibbing,
should consider himself Republican
candidate for Governor. Starr, of the
Sun, says he thought Power was going
after the Democratic nomination, and
that maybe he will be after the support
of the Prohibition party before he finally
decides where he will land. The fact is
that Power deems care who or what
party does the Boosting, SO long as he is
boosted. He gets let Of fun out Of
that sort Of thing, and he will end up
by being the candidate Of TO party, just
do AiC 1ao lAlCSAlSSu az dAS1lSs
Stanton Won't Do 1t.
The lie Sueur Herald contends that
Judge Charles w. Stanton of Bemidji
4 as Dem ccratic candidate for Governor
will net dc. What the Democrats need,
according to the Herald, is man who
will show mere than is in him, while
4 Stanton is of the type who cannot show
half that is in him. When it Genes to
brain and character, Stanton lccms ur
big, says the Herald, and he is an honor
to the Democratic PARTY, but mention
for the gube1natorial nomination is as
far as he will get, in the opinion of that
paper. .5s
The LitcIfeld News-ledger says that
Judge Stsnten new has plum tree that
is likely to bear fruit for him for mum.
