HALLAM, A STATESMAN

Minnesota has won a worldwide
renown through the great statesmen
she has contributed to the nation. Our
state has been tremendously power
full in the United States senate in
the past by sending to Washington
men of great intellectual ability and
and probity, men who were equal to
the great men of the nation. Ram
sey, Window, Davis, Nelson, were fig
ures of national Importance, and gave
Minnesota high standing in the coun-
ellis of our government. To main
tain such standard should be the
desire of all good citizens. We have
plenty of volunteer candidates who
pat themselves on the back. But
what we need in "a United States
senator is the ability, the wisdom,
the vision, the culture that will give
him high rank away from home as
well as at home. Such men are not
common. This year Minnesota will
have man of this calibre offered for
this high office. Justice Oscar Hal
lam, who won fame on the supreme
bench of this state, and who is high
ly respected wherever he is known
has been urged by thousands of
friends to make fight for the repub-
lican nomination. These good Re-
publicans who boost Hallam believe
that his nomination insures Repub-
Ii can senator from this state. They
know his election would insure Min
nesota a place of influence in the
councils at Washington. Justice Hal
lam has agreed to make the race. He
is not selfseeking politician. He
may be handicapped by that fact, but
we believe the people are in the right
frame of mind to appreciate such a
man, and to put him over regardless
of politics. Oscar Hallam is a man
every Republican can well afford to
support. He will strengthen the par
ty in this state and in the nation. He
is worthy of any mans vote regard
less of party, for he is a brainy, in
dependent honest man who will serve
all the people. We feel that we can
conscientiously commend Judge Hal
lam to our voters, sure that no man
will ever have to regret supporting so
splendid citizen, so fine man, so
loyal a republican.-Murray County
Herald.

That John M. Sta]ll has assembled
la truly all-star cast for his new Louis
IB. Mayer-First National screen Of
fering, "The Wanters,' which will be
shown at the Caughren Theatre May
18 and 10, is evident from the fact
that he engaged Hank Mann and
Lydia Yeamans Titus for two small
but important parts in the picture.
A play is only as strong as its
weakest character, according to this
director, and he supports his theory
by making even the short-lived roles
of definite value to the progress of
the story.
Mr.. Mann, who is comedy star in
his own right, adds humorous touch
to the opening of the picture with an
impersonation of star boarder who
has right-of-way over every other
member of an overcrowded house
hold. Miss Titus will be seen as the
clearinghouse mistress, woman
who rules with Hohenzollern touch
through virtue of the unpaid tenants

To have been a schoolmate Of
Abraham Lincoln was the distinction
enjoyed by Belle Hickok, mother of
James Butler Hickok, who, known as
"Wild Bill" was the greatest two
gun man of the old west.
After the civil war, when Hickok
met Abraham Lincoln, at the White
House he drew from his pocket his
most cherished possession, daguer-
reotype of Lincoln and Belle Hickok
standing side by side. The picture
brought warm smile to the presi-
