Thomas Frankson, the republican
candidate for lieutenant governor, is
worthy Of support. AS a member of
the state house of representatives and
as presiding officer of the state senate
he has made good. He is fair and hon
orable in all his dealings with his fell
low men and has the respect and con-
fdence of all who know him.

That grand old veteran, Knute Mel
son, should command the vote Of ev-
cry loyal Minnesotan next Monday.
Much against his personal inclination
he was drafted for another term in the
United States senate he did not wait
to be drafted in 1861. While he has
filed as republican, and he is and
always has been a loyal republican,
he is the candidate Of all patriotic
Minnesotans. The democrats will have
no candidate in the field against him.

SOlf Informs President that Far
Reaching Changes Affecting En-

Negotiations are Being Conducted
by Peoples Government.

Germany's answer to President Will

The German government has taken
cognizance of the answer Of the presi
dent of the United States.
The president is aware of the far
reaching changes which have been
carried out and are being carried out
in the German constitutional struc-
ture, and that peace negotiations are
being conducted by peoples govern
ment in whose hands rests, both act
ually and constitutionally, the power
to make the deciding conclusions.
The military powers are also sub

a just peace, as the president has de-
scribed it in his proclamation.

LONG RANGE GUNS
BEGIN FIRE ON LONGUYON

American long-range guns this af-
ternoon began firing on Longuyon.
The town of Longuyon is twenty
three miles northeast of Verdun. The
American long-range fire is also be-
ing directed against the vital Voted
Rocade on the railway line parallel
ing the front The Germans are de-
pending on this road to shift their
troops and supplies from one point to
another.
The caliber of the gun may not be
announced as yet but the gun can
shoot many miles. The weapon is
said to be infinitely more formidable
than the big guns with which the
Germans bOmbarded Paris, though its
range is not as great.
The results of the bombardment
have not yet been announced
For days the long-range guns have
been on the American sector man
euvering for positions from which
they might successfully lombard the
Sedan-Carignan-Montmedy-Longuyon S
line.
The cutting of this line, toward
which the Americans have been press
ing constantly, would mean the vir-
tlal collapse of the entire German
front to the Dutch border Even to
interrupt the railroad intermittently
would be huge gain, since most of
the German relief divisions sent
against the Americans have been
brought in over that line.

Wilson's Attitude Praised as Cham

Universal approval of President
wilson's reply to Austria is reflected
in editorial comments in London news
papers. His attitude is generally
praised as that of a champion of op-
pressed nationalities.
1T is a charter of liberty for the
Jugo-Slavs apd a permanent bar to
Germanys eastern aspirations" said
the Mail
The pesident's reply reafirms the
British attitude that the sword can
not be sheathed until the rights of
small nations have been made unas-
sailable," is the opinion of the Times.
"The Express says: 1T is an affr-
nation that the Austro-Hungarian
empire is out of date as far as geo
graphical expression is concerned
The reply is like a hammer blow
and informs Austria she is too late TO
accept the fourteen points" says the
