Solons to Attack Minnesota
Primary at Next Session
Repeal of Law to Be Sought in Next
Legislature; Return Party Rule
Ea Favored

St. Paul, Oct. ga strong at
tempt is to be made at the next ses-
sion of the Minnesota Legislature to
amend the primary election law and
to restore the Legislature to a party
basis.
Ramsey and Hennepin members of
the last House and Senate were au-
thority Tuesday for the statement
they already have been sounded out
on their attitude toward primary re-
form. A statewide organization is be-
ing formed in Minneapolis which will
pledge every legislative candidate be-
fore the primary election next June.
Both of these measures failed ut
terly at the 1925 session although 38
members of the lower house were
brave enough to vote for the bills in
troduced by Representative John E..
Stevens of Minneapolis.
Editors over the state are in re-
ceipt this week of copies of the pro-
posed primary reform bill which was
prepared prior to the last session by
Sam Y. Gordan, state printer, but was
not introduced. This would provide
for a pre-primary, the two highest
candidates in each party in this pre-
primary going before the people in
the regular primary election.
Linked up with primary reform is
to be intensive effort to bring about
earlier closing of the polls. Minnesota
is now the last state to close its polls
on election days, 9 P. M. being the
hour here. An earlier closing brought
opposition at the last session from
the farmer members of the House.
The bill never reached the Senate and
failed in the House committee.
In the 1924 state campaign, Curtis
M. johnson of Rush City, candidate
for the Republican nomination for
governor, came out fatty for aboli-
ton of the primary and restoration
OF convention system of nomina-
tions under strict legal regulations.
Although the issue was said by pol
iticians have been raised too early.
Johnson polled more than 10000
votes.
The Ramsey County Republican
committee is officially on record for
modification of the primary system,
while the Lincoln Republican club of
Minneapolis frequently has indicated
that a large majority of its members
takes a similar stand.

LETTER R
Special to Sank Centre Herald

Special to Sank Centre Herald
Washington, Nov. Though the
sideshows Of politics are running at
full blast, another month must elapse
before the Goth Congress, the main
attraction, trots out the feathered
performers in our national life. The
Courtmartial of Colonel Mitchell is
the most interesting spectacle of the
day. This affair proceeds independ-
entity but the other issues are con-
tingent upon Congressional interven-
ton. That is the reason for the
Mitchell case holding front page po-
sitions in the daily newspapers OF the
country.
Next year is a vital one in the
affairs of individual members OF
Congress. 1t is the campaign sea-
son. For this reason, experienced
observers believes that the dissen-
sions in the Shipping Board and the
Federal Trade Commission will con-
tribute more political fuel than the
Mitchell controversy. Some are OF
the opinion that the Mitchell matter
will be easily forgotten by the pub
lie as it serves merely to usher in
the general topic of Federal aviation
policies.
Every effort is being made to pro-

tional wealth, with the above per-
centage. She stands seventh for
federal highway mileage with Sc
per cent, and receives only 80 pei
cent of federal highway aid appro-
rriations, because population, post
road mileage and area are factors de-
termining aid appointments.
Minnesota pays directly IL pei
cent of the federal internal revenue
collections. She contributes through
branch establishments and in other
ways to the, revenues of large cor
porations with headquarters in east
ern states where similar collections
are increased as result.
But Uncle Sam is putting about
S2,O0O,0O0 yearly into highway bet
terments in Minnesota, and that is
probably the most important and di-
rect return that the state receives
from tax payments by her people to
the federal government.

A Talk With a
Sank Centre Man
Mr.. Gennow Tells Something of
Interest to Sank Centre
Folks

There's nothing more convincing
than the statement of someone you
know and have confidence in. That's
why this talk with Mr.. Gennow of
w. Second street, should be mighty
helpful here in Sank Centre.
John Gennow, boat builder, W.
Second St., says: ''My back gave me
a lot of trouble, due to my kidneys
being out of order. At times when
l stopped or went to lift anything, I
got one of those sharp pains like
knife-stabs. My back was also lame
and sore. I knew this was caused
from my kidneys not being in prop
err condition. I was told to try
Doan's Pills and after taking this
remedy, felt like different man
again. :"

Ninety One Miles Of Roads
Take Large Amount of Gravel
More Than 1900 Yards Called for
Under New Contracts Now Being
Closed by Highway Department

Enough gravel to make a pile near
ly 200 feet high and $50 feet in
diameter at the base, if put in one
place, will be spread on 81 miles of
Minnesota trunk highways, and paid
under contracts being made this week
by the state highway department and
best bidders. Other new contracts
are for two highway bridges. The to-
tai of approximately 100000 on the
proposals is about $4,000 less than
preliminary round-fgure estimates. )
j. L. Ellison, first assistant com.
missioner and chief highway engineer,
made public the figures. He is act
ing in the absence of Commissioner
Charles M. Babcack who is scheduled
to return late next month from Ar
gentina where he represented the
United States at the Pan-America
Road Congress last week.
Mr.. Ellison expressed satisfaction
with latest bids. Gravel hauling is
being contracted as low as 12 cents
yard mile, against an average of 10
cents paid in the past, he said, and
bridge figures are under the esti-
mates. The field of bidders was
smaller than usual, he added, but
nevertheless there was close figuring.
Plans call for completion of all grav-
cling listed before the end of the
year.
The crawling projects are appar-
emily low bidders on each are:
L. H. No. 3-Evansville west. A 5
miles at $4,S05 by Herman Miller.
Hartley, Iowa.
T. H. No. 3-Elbow Lake north,
81 miles at $11, POI by Herman Mil
ler.
T. H. No. 6-Moorhead south, 1877
miles at S48,322 by Morris Construc-
ton Co., Morris.

miles at $23,547 by Super-Way, Inc,
Fergus Falls.
T. H. No. 11-Pelland -Loman, II
miles at $27,363 by A. Brovold, Bau-
dette.

miles announcement later.
T. H. No. 64-Barnesville-R Roth
say, IA. 1 miles, tie $21, 1853, by Super
Way, Inc.
Other low bids were $7,989 by
Peterson Bros, Montevideo, on a
40-foot bridge on T. H. No. IA east
of Redwood Falls, and $500 by A.
Beckman & Co., Lake City, on a 60
foot bridge on T. H. No. So south of
Spring Valley.
Mr.. Ellison said this probably will
be the last lot of 1926 contracts for
trunk highway improvements. Awards
cannot be made until funds are avail
able, he said, and more than sixty
days are required to collect gasoline
taxes and credit them to the trunk
highway fund.
