the ability to make splendid
senator and kindly tell him that
it will be a pleasure for me to
support him if he enters the
race.
A well known and very Influential
man in Cold Springs said:
With Dr. Dubois as senator
this district would be greatly
hohored. Express to the doctor
my pleasure in anticipating his
candidacy with the promise of
my hearty support.
In discussing the possibility of DR.
Dubois becoming a candidate Charlie
Cheney political writer of the Mime
arolis Journal, an old friend of Dr
Dubois, said in his column a coupl,
OF weeks ago:
+ Citizens of western Stearns
county are trying to draft DR..
Julian A. Dubois of Sank Cen
tire to make the run for state
senator in the 10th district. SEN
ator Peter Ahles has declined to
run for another term, and while
three candidates nave filed at
st. Cloud for the place, none of
them is satisfactory to many OF
the leading people of the coun-
ty. DIR. Dubois is pioneer
doctor who has practically re
tired from active practice, but is
still hale and strong. He has
twice been democratic candidate
for congress in the sixth district,
but never has served in the leg
islature. He is philanthropist,
scholar and poet, and would ne
an ornament to the legislature.
In commenting on Mr.. Cheney's re
marks .Alvah Eastman said in the St.
Cloud Journal-Press:
DR.. Dubois is one of the big
men of that district, an unself-
lsh worker for whatever benefits
his fellows, a man of convic-
tons and courage, who would
be splendid representative for
any district in any legislative
body.
DR.. Dubois has more than a loca
reputation and his ability is admired
in almost every section of Mime
sofa. This from the Duluth Herald
OF recent date:
That incorrigible lover of
~ world peace, good fellowship and
the. Democratic party, DR.. Julian
Dubois of Sank Centre, is be-
ing urged by western Stearns
county citizens to become can
didate for the state senate. The
sturdy old pioneer hadn't con-
sented at last reports, but the
state as we'll as his district would
be mighty fortunate to have
man of the scholarly doctors
size among it's lawmakers.
The Herald believes it has rendered
this senatorial district and the state
CT Minnesota real service in taking
tie initiative which has brought abou
the entry of this splendid citizen int
the senatorial race. 1t is general!
expected that he viii be high man il
the four cornered fight for the nom
ination and his election in Novembe,
will demonstrate the faith of a PEG
pie, many of whorl have known ain
for nearly half century.

The complaint alleges discrimina-
