! OUR FLAG IS STILL THERE,
(From Mesaba Ore.)

The banner Of loyalty still waves
from the heights of the Republican
ramparts in Minnesota, and Burnquist
will lead the Christian soldiers on to
victory in November.
At least, that's the calculation.
But there is always a doubt.
After the rottenest and most dis
graceful campaign ever witnessed in
American politics, involving the
waste of many thousands of dollars
contributed voluntarily by Big Bust
ness and invoulntarily by the people
Of the state, Governor Burnquist was
renominated on the Republican ticket
and no doubt expects to be reelected
by the practice of the same despotic
tactics that gave him the nomination.
We shall not attempt an analysis
of the vote that gave Burnquist his
success at the polls, but we do not
believe for a minute that it was due
to his super loyalty and patriotism,
as was so feverishly advertised with
the people money.
1t is fact, admitted by all of the
political leaders who are honest, that
Burnquist was the weaker of the two
Republican candidates in the running
and that probably accounts for the
greater share of the majority that
went to him.
The nomination of Burnquist is vic
tory for dirty politics, abuse of privi-
lege, intimidation, smut on the Stars
and Stripes, and a waste of money
that should have gone for hetter MIR
poses-coupled with the desire to have
nominated the candidate that could
be easiest put away at the election.
The real accounting will come in
November.
