There was no response, and, believ-

perience of the kind and they were
interested In everything they saw. The
milking operation was especially ah-

SH|PSTEAD and
PREUS MEETINGS
Non-Partisan Meeting Was Well
Attended Tuesday y; But Few
Present at Auditorium,

Some big surprises await the peo-
pie of Duluth next week if the signs
Of the times have any indication on
how the people are voting. DR.. Ship
stead and Capt. Mallon, the Non
partisan candidates for governor and
lieutenant governor, addressed a
packed house at Woodman hall Tues
day evening, the night of the riot
up town.
J. A. 0. Preus and Louis Collins,
respective opponents Of Shipstead and
Mallon, spoke at the Shrine Audi
forum Wednesday evening to a small
audience. Not word was given
in the daily papers advertising the
Shipstead meeting and considerable
space was devoted to the Preus meet
ing, yet the Tuesday evening meet
ing turned people away:
The daily papers made no refer
ence to the Shipstead meeting on the
day following, while the front page
was given to the Preus meeting. It
is evident that the voters are not
taking very much stock in the free
love- campaign that the old guard
is making to retain its control of
the Republican party. They'll have
to get different issue between now
and Monday or the cleaning will be
sorroWful.
