dead, streached out, face downward.
Mrs. Drouillard and two children
were camping close by, picking blue
berries, and heard the shot.

STATE POLITICAL NEWS Is
! s.5s BY. Vance Chapman
''The County Chairman"

Either A. C. Townley's recent plea
as made to his followers for 81, ,000,-
900, campaign fund has been ans
wered in part, or else. this foxy Sic
ialist leader has something up his
sleeve unknown to his enemies. There
will be Townley candidate in the
field this fall and his name will be
DR.. Henrik shipstead of Glenwood
and he will run as an independent,
that is if C. NJ King of Deer River,
who is the Farm-Labor candidate
for similar honors does not retire.
Dr. Shipstead made the announce
ment of his candidacy this weeks If
King can be gotten out of the way
the Glenwood man will take on the
Farm-Labor label Pratical politics,
even with the powerful backing of
the Nonpartisan League forces is
against success for any independent
candidate for governor, which leads
some to- believe that the reported
reluctance of C. M. King to retire is
bunk, still it is known that the Deer
River man is very friendly to Larry
Hodgson, the Democratic candidate
for governor, and his idea of sticking
may be for the purpose of helping
out the ST. Paul mayor. Mr.. King
will not say what he is going to do.
At the time of the King filing there
was talk of an open deal between
Mr.. King and Townley as to Mr..
Kings future course. If Dr. Ship
stead files as an independent he will
be fourth on the ticket. The parties
in order will be Republican, Farm
Labor, Democratic and Independent.
Townley ieutenants, it is reported,
favored League endorsement of Mayor
Hodgson for governor in the fall
election, but Townley would have

thing with him.
R. T. Dick" O'Connor, the big
Democratic boss of St. Paul, has
sailed for England, possibly not to
return before next spring, and quot
ing the local prints, there lis gloom in
state Democratic circles IN con}sezz
quence congressional candidacy of
Tom Infringing Wet Brady of St.
Paul it is feared will suffer and like
wise the entire state ticket, all of
which can be taken with the pro-
verbal grain of salt. "Dick" is, or
rather has been, a power in St. Paul,
but, as he says himself, this is good
time to get from under and he in
tends to see the folks in Ireland
while the seeing and going is good.
There is no more astute politician
in the West than Dick O'Connor and
the Democratic regime in St. Paul
Is a monument to his political sag
acity and foresight, but the primary
law long ago limited his activities
as state power and he had wisely
kept in. the background. At the
present time the O'Conor crowd is
practically out of it as far as even
municipal control in the capitol city
is concerned. The prediction is, how
ever, that the O'Connors will be back
in the saddle again before another
two years have passed. The O'Con-
nors like others of the old school
i'm Minnesota, may be liability in
some ways, but their counsel and
good will is more often an asset.

The Farm Bureau picnics held at
Tofte on the 11th, Poplar Hill on the

(all three successful gatherings of

tion of the Tofte picnic, all We're
favored by the weather man. and,
even in the one exception, nobody
was soaked.
Lunch was combined affair and
was handled with the customary sat-
isfaction by the ladies of the several
communities. There was an abun-
dance of good food and the ladies
were determined it should be got. rid
of, even if it took two lunches to do
so.
AS farm bureau members and their
wives seldom suffer from lack of
physical exercise, no very vigorous
games were engaged in A revival of
the ancient game Of quoits, better
known as horseshoe pitching, provi-
ded amusement for number of
those present at the Poplar Hill and
Lutsen picnics, while others found
satisfaction in Visiting" with neigh
bors and realization that the regu-
lar routine of work was for a while
laid aside.
/ F. C. Clapp of the farm manage
ment department Of the Extension
Division was present and spoke on
the advantages of adapting farming
to the climatic, soil and transporta-
tion conditions found in this section
of the state. He advised the growing
of those crops making the highest
returns for limited acreage and man
labor.

gave brief talk on the value of

ter acquaintance and weakening of
prejudices among neighbors.
The purpose Of farm bureau or
ganizations, county, state and federal
