In letter to the "Schmahl for
Governor Booster Club" Julius A.
Schmahl this week launched his can
didacy for the Republican guberna-
torial nomination, and announced
his platform. Mr.. Schmahl Says
II have no specific promises to

that counts in the affairs of men and
nations.
II have been in the official service
of the commonwealth of Minnesota

as chief clerk of the House of Repre-
sentatives, and thirteen years as
Secretary of State. That I have en-
deavored to conduct those Office in
diligently, fairly, economically, and
in the interests of the taxpayers is
a matter of record.
I'm seeking pormotion I stand
squarely on the official record I have
made in the past
From time to time, as the cam
paign progresses, in public address.
I shall discuss the questions that will
be issues.
I'm a general way desire to
state:
THAT state business should be con-
Quoted upon the same principle as
private,-as economically as is con-
sistent with fullest efficiency;
THAT legislation should be enacted
and administration should be pro-
mu1gated without discrimination or
partially towards any class, occupa-
ton or locality;
THAT all citizens should be grant
ed equality of opportunity and equal
ity before the law;
THAT administration and legisla-
ton should respond to majority of
we'll considered popular opinion;
THAT in the matter of appoint
ments, ability and economy of admin
istration should be first recognized !;
and next should be the various Sec
tions of the state;
THAT the constitutions and the
laws of the United States and the
State of Minnesota, should be re-
spected and obeyed by all, and vio-
latOrs Of the same should be sternly
brought to account without fear or
favor
Should be nominated and elected

WHY ADVERTISED
STORES SUCCEED

When a store advertises judiciously,
it attracts public attention and it in
creases it's business. But the in
crease of receipts is not usually
equalled by a corresponding increase
of expenses. Most stores could double
their business without doubling the
number Of clerks, or doubling their
rent, light, heat and other charges.
Consequently, the charge per article
for this so-called overhead expense,
keeps decreasing as the business
grows. If receipts double, and costs
of doing business increase only fifty
per cent, it is manifest that the over
head cost for each article sold is
proportionately less. AS volume of
business increases, the business is
more economically done, and the cost
of moving each separate article is re-
duced. The public gets the difference
in lower prices.

BRITAIN To AUCTION
100000 BALE MONTH

Dealers in the Boston wool market
are proceeding with extreme caution
The general feeling In the trade is one
of uncertainty. Prices for Inc woods
remain at the high level that has been
ruling for SO long and the demand
shows no signs of ~slackening.
1t had been thought and hoped, that
by now there would have been more
demand for medium woods on the part
of the mills but, as the recent auc-
tons have testified, there is practi-
cally nothing doing outside of the
finer grades. Consequently, private
trading is strictly limited.
The wool market is fast becoming
more of an international affair than
ever before, owing to the fact that
in the aftermath of war one nation
controls potentially the wool of the
world as to prices to be paid. The
statement made by the president of
the Boston Wool Trade Association al
it's recent banquet, hat Boston was
now the largest wool market in the
world, need not b, taken too literally.
Boston is a kind of satellite of Lon
don at the present time and will be
dependent apparently for some
months for choice woods on the policy
of the Bri ssh director of raw ma
teria1s.
The British government intends Of
fering at least 200, 900 bales monthly
for the remainder of the year. 1t will
then have left on its hands, on good
authority, some 100000 bales unsold
In addition to this there will be the
new 1920-21 Australasian clip coming
in, but no longer under control, which
ceases with the present clip. There
is going to be no scarcity of wool to
meet the worlds needs and the high
prices paid for fine woods may not
be repeated.
American buyers will be able to
operate in London under especially
favorable conditions owing to the in
creased purchasing power of the
American dollar. England will have
to pay more for goods from this coun-
try, and the United States will pay
less for hers. Best merinos sold at
LIS 3D., a price which would enable
them to be landed here clean, around
$2.12.

Boston Commercial Bulletin, shows

standard varieties of foreign and do
nestle woods in the United States:
