PHILIP NJ. WOODWARD.

Philip M. Woodward is candidate
for the office of clerk of court. With
the exception of the commissioners, he
is the first man inithe lake country to
seek election to county office. The
north end of the county is developing
rapidly and it is high time for the
people of that section to have at least
one of the county officers. There is no
question concerning Mr.. Woodward's
ability to fill the office of clerk Of
court. He undoubtedly has had more
experience in the work connected with
that office than any other man in
Mile Laos county. Moreover, Phil
Woodward is farmer, and it is en-
tirely fitting that the farmers of Mile
Laos county should be represented in
our group of county officials.

This weeks Union contains the an
nouncement of Charles F. Serline of
Mora, who is candidate for re-elec-
ton to the legislature in this (the
fifty -fifth) district. Mr.. Serline has
served but one term and the Union
can unqualifedly endorse his record.
He worked for and supported all legis-
lation which he considered would bene-
fit his constituents and he was the
author Of many meritorious measures.
Especially did he look after the in
terests Of the farmers and was instru-
mental in securing the passage of
much legislation favorable to agricul-
tural interests. The ex-service men,
too, came in for a share of his atten-
tion-he did his utmost to secure for
them bonus. Mr.. Serline's record is
an open book. He has served his con-
stituents faithfully and, if any man is
entitled to reelection, it is Charley
Serline. Vote for him on November 2

Everyone, irrespective of his re-
ligious creed, can scarcely do other
wise than render praise to the Knights
of Columbus for their generous offer
of $5,0O0,00O to the American legion
wherewith to erect a memorial build
ing at Washington, D. C. This build
ing would be in memory of Americans
who died in the world war, and many
Knights OF Columbus were numbered
with the slain in that bloody encoun-
ter. This munifcent sum represents
the balance of $4O,OOO,OOO collected
by the knights for war purposes and
they have voted to present it to the
doughboys for the purpose above stat
ed. All praise to the Knights of Col
umbus.

ment.

w. S. Enger, who is candidate for
reelection to the legislature from this
district, is eminently worthy of your
support. Mr.. Enger is a man Of in
disputable business integrity and eff
ficiency. He has made success of
farming and knows exactly the kind
of legislation the farmers want. His
past record in the legislature is proof
that he put forth every effort to faith
fully serve his constituents by sup
porting beneficial measures which
came up for passage. In Mr.. Enger
the district has an honest, conscien-
tious representative who is worthy of
reelection. Don't forget him on Nov

Tom Marshall, vice president of the
United States, who, with Mrs. Mar
shall, was in St. Paul on his way to
Detroit the other day, said to re-
porter: Making democratic speeches
in democratic manner is my task,
and, from the manneS in which they
are being received, am believing that
the people are thinking much more
than they are saying" Tom is right.
They are thinking of consigning the
democratic administration and the
league Of nations to obscurity.

Every true American will commend
the judges of the United States circuit
court of appeals for affirming the de-
cision Of Judge Lands, who sentenced
that notorious I. w. w., w. D. Hay
wood, and SO others Of like stripe, to
long terms of Imprisonment and, be-
sides, imposed heavy fines. Accord
ing to the ruling Of the appellate court
these men must serve their sentence
and pay their fines, but there is a
possibility, yes, a probability, that
President Wilson, in the kindness Of
his heart, may set the courts edict
aside by granting these human taran-
tulas a pardon.

There is a bare possibility that
President Oregon of Mexico is a diff
ferent sort of bandit from those who
preceded him. At any rate he is quot
ed as saying that he would rather see
the Mexicans in schools than. on the
battlefelds. This sounds good to us,
but the trouble with all Mexicans is
that their word can never be relied
upon, especially the word of reformed
bandits, the class from which presi-
dents in that country are invariably
chosen.

ATTORNEY GENERAL HILTON.

ATTORNEY GENERAL HILTON.
The republicans frankly admit they
are hard pressed by the nonpartisans
in this coming election. Preus and
Hilton won in the primaries by only a
small plurality, Hilton's contest be-
ing exceeding close. Now Preus and
Hilton are again opposed by these
same nonpartisan Notwithstanding
as Observation-Disclosures and Sui
Ivan.
In last weeks issue we stated it
would be an actual calamity to have
Shipstead elected governor but it
would be even worse to have Sullivan
as attorney general. ..The attorney
general is the legal adviser of all the
departments Of state and counsel for
the state or departments in all suits
at law. =" Fancy having a man of
Sullivan's caliber acting in this ca
pacity, interpreting our laws and rem
dering decisions.
Clifford Hilton was elected attorney
general in 1913 He is remarkably
well fitted for this important office
and has rendered the people of Mime
sofa excellent service. The least the
people of this state can do to express
their appreciation of his service is to
re-elect him by substantial plurality.
If you are going to vote for but one
republican vote for Clifford Hilton.
Democrats and republicans should
stand together and work for. Mr.. Hill
ton. 1t is all important to every citi-
zen of Minnesota that loyal, level
headed, efficient man be elected to the
office of attorney general. Vote for
Clifford L. Hilton.

SOLTIs.

A certain Mr.. Soltis, aspiring to
represent the tenth district in con-
gress, spoke at the nonpartisan meet
ing with Mr.. Shipstead. It was a
sorry sight to see that man standing
on the platform of our armory, pour
ing forth all the venom and spite of
his distorted nature, defling those
things that loyal Americans hold sa-
cred and the service flag with it's
row Of gold stars hanging close be-
side him. The shame, the burning
shame to think there was man or
woman in that audience who could APP
plaud such speech. Mr.. Soltis stat
ed that all we got out of the war was
$4,000 milionaires, 1876 per cent in
crease in the cost Of living and the
wholesale suspension of our liberties.
He does not believe in war because, as

Harvev's Weekly: That is a j

Harvey's Weekly: That is most
unpleasant story, that returned sol
diers suffering from tuberculosis are
to be removed from the government
home sanitorium at Saranac lake to
another hospital at New Haven. The
former place is one of the best in the
world for them and the latter is one
of the worst. 1t is explained that some
Of the wealthy residents Of Saranac
lake object to the presence of the SOL
diers and socially ostracise them. For
that reason the soldiers are to be re-
moved from the place in which they
would probably get we'll and sent to a
place in which they will probably die.

dressed large audience, about 900
people. Most of these people came
from the farms in the surrounding
country and undoubtedly large per-
centage of them are nonpartisans.
We may be greatly mistaken but we
do not believe that DR.. Shipstead made
many votes by the speech which he
delivered. The great mass Of men and
women who listened to that harangue
are intelligent, loyal American citi-
zens, capable Of doing their own think
ing. These men and women know that
Shipstead made one misstatement af-
ter another. A man who has spent
most of his life on farm in this
vicinity and on that farm has earned
a good living for his wife and chill
dren, said that Mr.. Shipstead had con-
sistently misrepresented every issue
and fact which he had discussed in his
address, and this man is we'll in
formed on matters concerning the
farm and state affairs.
The farmers in this vicinity have al
ways prospered and no one knows that
better than they themselves. Occa-
sionally there will be found man who
is not successful on his farm, but nine
times out of ten that man would be a
failure at any other business.
We are not infallible in Minnesota
the voters may sometimes err and
elect-a corrupt man to office, but the
marvellous development of the state
and the prosperity of the people is
abundant proof that most of our Of
ficials have been upright men who
strove to serve the best interests of all
the citizens.
Mr.. Shipstead made some reference
to the great sums of money which are
being lost to our school fund. Mime
sofa has much the largest school fund
of any state in the union. It has been
reported that this enormous school
fund is being covetously eyed by
Townley and his gang Of officials. If
corrupt men could get their hands on
that school fund we would have few
more millionaires added to the list.
:, 1t has been said that, "Townleyism
lin Minnesota did not just happen;
there was cause for it." Mr.. Preus
and the leading men in the state
realize this. The farmers were justi-
fed in demanding better marketing
facilities and it was to secure these
that the majority of the farmers joined
the nonpartisan league. The leaders of
the league. are, not asking for coop
erative marketing of the farm produce,
they are demanding state ownership
of the elevators, warehouses, together
with all public utilities. We do not
believe the thinking farmers will sup
port the demand Of these leaders.

The census report shows that there
has been gain of IA per cent in the
number of farms in Minnesota in the
past ten years. This is not so bad
when you take road conditions into
consideration. If Amendment No.
carries, however, and it looks now as
if it would, the next ten years will in
all probability show an increase in the
number Of farms Of so per cent.

designed to end all future wars, and

scarcely fail to discover that the
