Townleyism has been defeated in
Minnesota.
The acid test came Monday when
j. "A. O. Preus defeated DIR. Henry
Shipsted for the nomination for gov
ernor.
Returns from 2,S25 precincts out of
3,195 in the state give Preus a lead
of 1895. The combined vote of
Frankson, Ellsworth, Iverson and
Keefe will reach about $4,000, in
dicating that the people of Minnesota
have repudiated the socialistic pro-
gram by majority of over $4,000.
Complete returns may cut Preus' ma
jority to less than 10000, but his
nomination is certain.
The vote in most sections of the
state was very light, particularly in
the towns and villages. Sank Cen
tire polled less than so per cent of
her registered vote.

Leaving the Caughren farm, the

that the object of making the con-
tract with Mr.. Whitney in the first
place was to get away from the, vi
bration, and to give the citizens a
chance to get in shape to manufac-
ture their own juice before the five
year period had expired. He said
in fact that the contract with Mr..
Whitney was only a make-shift af-
fair.
C. G. Spradow and L. w: Grothaus
of the Allis-Chalmers Co., of Mil
waukee were present at the meeting
at the invitation of the Light and
Power Commission. Me. Spradow
is the designer of the type of engine
used in Sank Centre and dwelt at
length upon the condition of the en-
gines. He said he had inspected
them veSy carefully and found them
in perfect condition-that they would
last for a great number of years.
He said it was unfortunate that the
vibration existed. From his state
ment it is apparent that a grave en-
gineering mistake was committed
when the engines were located on the
present site. He said that investiga-
ton showed that the engines were
resting on II feet Of quicksand. He
stated that it was serious question
whether it would not be cheaper and
more satisfactory for the city to
erect their power house on a site not
underlaid with quicksand.
It was apparent that the people
were not out after Mr.. Whitney's
business scalp as much as they were
after satisfactory service, with a
reasonable certainty of it's continuity.
It was suggested that the local plant
be run in parallel with the st. Cloud
Water Power Company's plant until
such time as the high line of $4,000
volts was completed ipto the city.
Mr.. SpBadow said this would be
practicable, and in this Electrician
Marvin agreed with him.
It was finally voted to have the
City Council, the Light and Power
Commission and authorized repre-
sentatives Of the Water Power Com
mission meet. in Sank Centre Sunday
afternoon and see if a plan for this
hooking up could not be arranged.
Sunday afternoon Messrs. Vince
lock Whitney and Marvin met with
the Sank Centre authorities. Mr..
Marvin explained that since Friday
evenings meeting they have been in
conference with the engineers of the
General Electric company and they
had informed them that the $4,000
volt transformers installed at the
Sank Centre sub-station could be
changed to give 10 per cent more
power on the Sank Centre switch
board, or an increase of about II
volts. They suggested that they
be allowed to make this change,
with the agreement that if satisfac-
tory results were not obtained that
they would then hook on with the To-
cal engines.
This article was written Monday
afternoon. It was agreed by the COM
pany to, make the change Tuesday if
weather conditions were favorable.
In the meantime the local power
plant will furnish the service.
