pointed by City Clerk Olson to assist

told Mr.. Olson she could not stom-
ach" the idea of working beside a
colored woman. Mr.. Olson told her
he did not like that brand of religion,
and that she could quit IL she wished,
as Mrs. Weber was giving satisfaction
and was apt to remain quite while.
The mice Christian" lady resigned.
Mrs. Weber is still at her desk.

DELEGATES MEET
/. At REPUBLICAN
STATE SESSION
Anti-mOb Resolution Is Adopted
by Convention in st. Paul
Saturday.

With the Twin Cities Republican
bowling to the mandates of the
country districts, harmony reigned
supreme throughout the Republican
state convention held on Saturday
last in st. Paul. Each congressional
district was given a delegate-at-large
to the national convention, thus elm
mating the chances of delegate
from our group. However, our dele
gates were on the job and by excel
lent team work were able to have the
resolution presented by Fred d. Nc
Cracken calling for national anti
lynching legislation adopted by the
convention. Out of about SO resolu-
tions presented, this was one of the
four adopted.
The race delegates were Mrs. Eu-
gene Cough, Mrs. VIM. T. Francis
and Fred d. McCracken of st. Paul,
George Kelly of Duluth and Fred
Jemison of Minneapolis.
RESOLUTION:
presented by Fred ID. McCracken.
Delegate Ramsey County, Minnesota)
WHEREAS, Mob rule, lynching,
intimidation and coercion have
grown to an alarming extent in every
part of America; and
WHEREAS, This defiance of the
laws of State and Nation Is a con-
slant menace to the tranquility and
well being of our common country;
THEREFORE BE 1T RESOLVED.
That the Republican Party of the
State of Minnesota in Convention as
sembled approve and endorse that
part of the National Republican plat
form of 1920 which calls for appro-
pirate legislation to check this grow
ing evil.

OPPOSITION FOR
MAYOR NELSON IS
UNDER QUESTION
Candidates Lined Up for First
Best of Office Race at Pri-
maries Tuesday.

Tuesday is the day for the pri-
maries in st. Paul, at which time the
strength of various candidates will be
known. One of the keenest competa-
tive races for Mayor, Councilmen and
Judges in the history of the city is
predicted. The various candidates
are marshaling every iota of strength
to receive nomination for Office. Moth
ing is being spared to produce all
available votes at the polls by the
contending factions.
To several of the candidates this
is first attempt in the big political
whirl, but many seeking Office are
seasoned men in public service, some
varying from two to fifteen years of
political experience.
The chief fight seems to be revolv-
ing around Mayor Arthur E. Nelson,
seeking reelection, and his opponent,
George L. Siegel, who is indorsed by
the labor Non-Partisan League. Both
sides are trying to put over their can
didate in great style.
Aiding the Mayor.
Organization of a volunteer MEL
son for Mayor" committee was per-
fected at meeting of civic club
Representatives and residents from
the various sections of the city Tues
day night.
The organization of this committee
unofficially launches Mayor Nelson's
campaign for reelection, according
to Carl w. Cummins, one of the
speakers at the meeting.
The city will be thoroughly organ
lied for the coming mayoralty cam
paign. Block and precinct organiza-
tions. which will clear through the
ward campaign organizations. will be
organized this week.
With full vote at the primary
and final election, 1t was emphasized
by Mr.. Cummins, 1t is virtually GER
tain that Mayor Nelson will be re-
elected.
ITO change horses in the middle
of the stream would be a matter of
serious consequences, Mr.. Cummins
said. Mayor Nelson has given st.
Paul the best, most efficient and
most progressive city administration
in the history of st. Paul"
Labor Making Fight.
George L. Siegel is being backed
by the working men under the lead
ership of Frank Fisher, chairman.
This organization is working strenu-
ously to secure adequate support for
their aspirant at the primaries. Mr..
Siegel, who is an attorney, is consid-
cred very formidable opponent for
the present Mayor. Although he is
making a game fight, his popularity
cannot be definitely ascertained until
returns are made after the primary
election Tuesday. The labor party
has received great strength owing to
the election of Senators Henrick
Shipstead and Magnus johnson.
Both Mayor Nelson and Mr.. Siegef
are being backed by strong support
and many are agreed that Tuesdays
battle will be very excitable.
The registration statistics show
that IL all registered voters use the
ballot there will be lively fight on
for all municipal offices.
