the way for greater problems the state
has to meet growing out of the i'm
mense number of trucks and automo-
biles, which on the main travelled
roads make highways Of dirt construc-
ton impractical and wasteful. We
owe much to Honorable Robert c..
Dunn and Engineer George w. Cooley.
The best way we can do them honor
is to do what they would do were they
with us this election, and that is to
vote for Amendment No. 1. These
men loved Minnesota. Their zeal was
to make it the best state in the union,
and the best foundation for state
progress is good roads. Charles M.
Babcock, the co-worker with Dunn and
Cooley, has found way to solve the
later day problem, and these three men
will stand during the history of the
state high on the list of the men who
best served Minnesota.-S Cloud

Women are "wising up on the Bah
cock plan and they can be depended
upon to do their share toward carry
ing Amendment No. 1. AS fact,
women do not take kindly to rough
roads and mudholes when they go
forth for a little JOY ride, and they
are consequently putting their shoulder
to the wheel in an effort to assist in
pulling Minnesota out of the mud. At
good roads meetings in Detroit and

Pat McGarry elucidated the Babcock
plan, a large number of women were
in attendance, and every one of them
signified her intention of voting for

pears to be opposed to the Babcocil
amendment. In one of his recent is
sues he expressed some concern in re-
gard to the provisions specifying that
only 10 per cent of the funds derived
from the tax on automobiles owned in
the cities would be spent on the high
ways in those cities, the remaining 80
per cent would go to the roads in the
rural districts. This he feared would
hardly be just to the automobile own
ers in the cities. Don't worry, Mr..
Cravens; they do not want your SYM
pathy, the majority OF, them favor the
Babcock amendment. Those who are
we'll informed and have business per-
ception know that good roads in the
rural districts will bring prosperity to
the farmers and in turn prosperity to
them. Considering the matter from a
purely selfish standpoint they would
regard the money spent in the project
as wisely invested. Then the average
man, regardless Of his present resi-
dence, is so constituted that he enjoys
going into the open country, driving
past fields and farmhouses and oc-
casionally catching glimpse of ma
tural scenery more beautiful than any
thing the parks can offer.
A car driven on the Jefferson highway
from Minneapolis to Elk River last
Sunday afternoon met approximately
$500 cars between Robbinsdale and
Anoka. On both sides of the road
there was a continuous line of cars,
one following the other as closely as
safety would permit. This continuous
line actually extended from Robbins
dale to Anoka. From Anoka to Elk
River the cars were little more wide
ly separated. The majority of drivers
on this road were undoubtedly from
the twin cities. They enjoy driving in
the country and are willing to pay for
the roads.

We fancy that Franklin D. Roose:

the other candidate being the main d.

short of a calamity to have nonpar-

Some of the candidates are placing
their hope in the "silent vote" With
the women coming into the game we
scarcely think there will be many of
such votes cast even though some of
the fair ones can keep a secret. This is
more than the men do. They general
ly whisper it abroad that they voted
for this, that or the other man, es-
pecially if he is elected to office.

INTERNATIONAL CANDIDATES.

\
Many voters in this vicinity will
hear the two prominent gubernatorial
candidates speak this week, L. C.
Hodgson and J. A. O. Preus. Both
men have been before the public for
some time and both have made good
in their respective positions. While
Laurence Hodgson and Jake Preus
are vastly different they have many
points in common-both of them are
clean cut, square men, the finest type
Of citizens.
Considering these men personally we
have no choice, both are our friends,
but as a gubernatorial candidate we
must choose Preus. We believe Mr..
Preus has shown greater executive
ability as state auditor than Mr..
Hodgson has displayed as mayor of
St. Paul. It has been stated that in a
mans virtues you find his limitations,
and those qualities which have won
Larry Ho thousands Of friends may
handicap him as an executive.
Republicans and democrats should
concentrate on one man this November.
DR.. Shipstead gave Mr.. Preus a close
run in the primaries and it is generally
acknowledged that the day was saved
by the large number of democrats who
voted the republican ticket. Of the
three men, Hodgson, Preus and Ship
stead, Preus is undoubtedly the
strongest man. The democrats and re-
publicans stand close together in this

In one of his speeches Franklin D.
Roosevelt, with the aim, apparently,
of belittling Senator Harding, charac-
terized him as IAN old-fashioned poll
tician." That is nothing, however, to
be ashamed of, for the old-fashioned
politician was as honest as the day is
long. Look at Abraham Lincoln, for
example-there was not, metaphor
cally speaking, dishonest hair in
his head. The country would be far
better off today were there many
more of these good old-fashioned poll
ticians.

An exchange asks whether the
women will vote for wet or dry can
didate. Well, most of us know how
the women feel about the destroyer
of manhood, rum-many of them have
suffered from the debasing effects of
this demon upon their husbands. They
and their children have gone hungry
and been compelled to wear rags be-
cause their husbands spent their earn
ings in intoxicants. Then why ask
the question, For whom will women
vote-the wet OF dry presidential can
didate?

Further to enhance the memorial sig
