With the prospects of Jake Preus'
elevation to the United States fairly
good residents of Capitol Hill and
friends of the administration are not
a little interested in the transfer of
the gubernatorial title to Lieut.. Gov.
Collins and what will happen when
he assumes office. The general know
ledge is that his excellency if elected
will resign Immediately and that
'The Little Corporal" will of nee
essity take over the office at once.
At the present time there are sew
eral official vacancies at the state
capitol and these the new governor
will have to fill. Among them is a
vacancy on the railroad and ware
house commission, new private Sec
rotary and probably new chairman
of the Republican State Central Com
mittee. The latter position is now
filled by C. R. Adams, well known
newspaper man of Minneapolis, and
it is said that he is anxious to re-
tire. Mr.. Adams has been with his
excellency ever since the latter en-
tered the governors OFFICE and has
seen him safely to a number of Of
fetal and policital successes. War
service friends of Lieut.. Gov. Collins
anxious to see him honored with the
executiveship are out with the slogan,
ga Vote for Preus is Vote for Col
lins," and it is having it's good eff
fects.
James A. Carley, Democratic can
didate for United State senator does
not like the way some st. Paul Dem
ocrats, among them r. T. O'Con-
nor are treating his candidacy. "The
Cadinal" it is said favors Gov. Preus
for United States senator. This
week the Carley management re-
lieved itself of several hot lines con-
corning Mr.. O'Connor in which it
was intimated that he was knitting the
party that made him. Monday Sena-
tor Carley delivered his keynote"
at Mankato, it was speech bristling
with anti-administration invectives
and was delivered in true Carley
style. Jim, they say is not so sure
of making the senatorial grade, but
he hopes to put up showing that
will aid him if he decides to enter
the congressional race in the First dis
trict against Sydney Anderson next
year.
Mike Holm, secretary of state, has
been frequently mentioned as posi-
BILE timber for Republican congress
sional honors in the Ninth district
next Fall, but the nice things being
said of him in this connection have
not made any impression so far. With
Former Congressman Halver Steiner
son regarded by many as permanent
ly retired, Mr.. Holm they say is the
only man in Ninth District political
circles able to wrest the district from
Farmer-Labor party control. The
secretary of state led the Republic
can ticket in the election last Fall.
He is regarded as a CONNER.
r.
The man who thinks his vote won't
make any difference one way or the
other-what kind Of a figure is he
going to cut in the senatorial cleo
ton? No one knows and no one
wants to know. What they want this
man to do is to pledge himself tc
vote and thereby forestall the discus
sion. j.
Preus for Senator Clubs are organ
lied or are being formed in great
many places throughout the state.
1t is an excellent way to arouse in
terest that will bring out the full
party strength on election day, July
10Th. The effort is small and the
results large.
d.
Don't overlook the women's vote.
Sometimes it needs a little encour-
agement, but when the sense of duty
is once thoroughly instilled it may be
depended upon to conscientiously dis
charge its obligations. Every COM
munity should have women's COM
mittee to look after this very inn,
portant voting element.
-
It was the last straw that broke
the camel's back. You may have the
honor of casting the last vote that
will shatter the spinal vertebrae of
the opposition. But don't risk it.
The better way is always to vote dur
ing the early part of the day.
