With four candidates running for
governor, there would be in normal
times no risk in~picking the republican
candidates as winner. But these are
not normal times. Gov. Burnquist has
made many mistakes, that have under
mined his popularity with large num-
Der Of voters. But in that respect, he
is not unlike most other public men.
Lloyd George, Teddy Roosevelt and
even President Wilson, have made
grievOus mistakes. Sometimes they
admit it and sometimes they are too
stubborn to do so. Most aggressive
men make mistakes. 1t has been said
that a man who makes no mistakes,
will not make much of anything else.
In the heat of political campaign
we should not overlook Gov. Burn
Quists good qualities. We think it
must be conceded that he has some.
And first among these we would place
his unqualified support of the temper
ance cause. That will count for much
OF the candidates opposed to him
Evans is likely to give him the hardest
chase. But some political prognostica-
tors down state predict Gov. Burn
quist's reelection by $4,000 votes. If
that comes true, he will have enough
and to spare.

4, Vote, "Yes'' on the Pink Ballot Nov
to make Minnesota dry.

The Sheaf has no other interest in
county government affairs than such
as every taxpayer should have, and that
is to have good competent men fill the
various Offices A few candidates have
been mentioned which in our Judgment
are entitled to kindly consideration.
But the people of Marshall county are
the great jury that will decide on Nov.
9Th, and with that verdict we will all
have to be satisfied. All candidates
cannot win. In every political contest
many good men go down to defeat.
But after candidate has made man.

disgrace to be loser.

He will give every citizen square
DEAL BY reason Of his ability and
knowledge Of public affairs, the govern
ment has asked him to render it i'm
portant special service in these critical
times and Ikea good, loyal citizen he
has not shirked any work it has asked
him to do. For such service he receives
no pay. 1t is entirely gratuitous. Mr..
Eckstrom nevertheless considers it a
privilege to serve his country and flag,
even though it be without remunera-
ton. The voters, however, we believe,
will take these things into considera-
tion>when they mark their ballots on
Tuesday next and will exercise their
good judgement and common sense by
putting an ''X' mark opposite the name
of A. n Eckstrom for county attorney.
He deserves the vote of every citizen.

For Sheriff.

Hans. C.:IHanson, the present incum-
bent Of the sherif's office has made a
competent official. He is serving his
first term and the voters will no doubt
concede that he is entitled to reelec-
ton. Sheriff Hanson is member of
the draft board and has discharged the
duties devolving upon him with fair.

DR.. G. s. Wattam has been appointed
a representative of the State Board of
Health for Marshall County to deal
with the influenza epidemic. He has
visited portions of the county where
the disease has made inroads making
a survey Of the cases and assisting the
people and local authorities in checking
the disease. He desires that suspicious
cases be reported and that local author

strenuous measures must be adopted to
bring it under control. Consult DR..

For County Auditor

1t is conceded all around, we believe,
that the present county auditor, A. G.
Lundgren, is a very competent official
The county is a big business institution
and it certainly would be unwise to
place anyone in that office not qualified
or big enough to handle it,. Mr.. Lund-
gren%is competent bookkeeper and
the books Of the office are neatly and ac-
curately kept. There is system and or

st. Paul. Minnesota
Dear Sis:
The following (facsimile) copy of
a telegram from the Democratic Ma
tional Committee asking for the de-
feat of Senator Knute Nelson is being

Washington: D. G. Oct. %, 1918.
Hon. John Lind,
New York Life Building, Minneapolis
Mimi ..--
The Democratic National Committee
strongly endorses the candidacy OF
Honorable w. G. Calderwood for the
United States Senate and regards
his election as of the utmost import
ance not only in the matter of support
ing President Wilson's conduct of the
war, but also for the purpose of CO.
operating in the reconstruction policies
and progressive measures of the adj
ministratiOn which will follow cessa-
ton of hostilities ....s.
Democratic National Committee.
Prepared and circulated by the Citi-
zens Campaign Committee, 251 Henne-
pin Ave-, Minneapolis.
Contrast this with the following re-
solution passed by the Democratic com
mittee in March of this year:
whereas, the Honorable Knute Mel
son, United States senator from Min
nesota, has rendered distinguished and
patriotic service in support of the ma
ton, and of it's President as it's leader
in this war, and by his dependable 10y
atty and patriotic service has placed his
country and state under debt of gra-
titude.
Therefore, be it resolved that the
Democratic executive committee of
Minnesota, acting on broad, patriotic
American citizenship, do hereby pledge
to Senator Nelson our faith and earnest
support for his reelection to the Senate
of the United States.'' : ~ $780, -
Notwithstanding the fact that the
Democratic state central committee has
Endorsed Senator Nelson and the fur.
Their fact that the Democrats of Mime,
sofa refused to put up, a candidate
against him, the Democratic national
committee now calls for his defeat
Minnesota must hang its head, in
shame if it turns down Senator Nelson
after forty years of devoted public ser
vice. 1t would be disgrace and blot
upon the fair name of the state.
Let your answer to this telegram be
an extra effort to give Senator Nelson
the largest vote ever given to any can
didate in the States history
