DAY OF CONVENTIONS HAS PASSED

The Minneapolis Labor Review had editorial las
week criticizng Mr. Watkins for filing against the
candidate Endorsed for Senator by the FarmerLabor
Convention and Mr.. Ernest Lundeen for filing against
the candidate Endorsed by the Executive Committee OF
said organization.
The Labor Review did not criticize the other candi
dates who filed against those selected by Conventions
of the Farmer-Labor Party.
In it's criticism of the filing of Watkins against
Shipstead the Labor Review had equity in its
argument Watkins participated in the convention and
Shpstead was selected by majority vote as the
candidate of the Farmer-Labor Convention The de-
feated candidate at Conventions is supposed to abide
by the decision of the majority
But in Lundeens case it was different. The FL.
Association convention selected Floyd Olson its
didate for Governor. Weeks passed and Mr. Olson
did not file. Lundeen, in public statement stated
TINT he was of opinion that Olson defauted his
dorsement He filed for Governor but stated that he
would be willing to withdraw if Olson still made his
filing. Then Mr.. Olson made public declaration that
-te not candidate for public office.
The Farmer-Labor Executive Committee met and
Mr. Olson appeared before them again and informed
them that he would not The Executive commit
tee then selected DR.. Fritsche of New Ulm
Mr. Lundeen refused to withdraw. He says that the
candidate of the convention has defaulted and the
voters of the farmer-labor party have right to pick
their nominee
In opinion there can be no mistake made by the
voters in selecting either of these candidates. Both
have records progressves second to others in
the northwest. Both stand for the same things.
But the point is that the voters of Minnesota seem
to rebel against conventions to select candidates before
primary election. The voters to think they are
well qualified to select candidates themselves as
group of men calling themselves a convention.
The day of the convention seems to have passed.
There is rising protest against any body of men
setting themselves up being better than the Amer
citizen who casts his vote at the ballot box 1t will
be hard year for handpicked candidates in Montana
well Minnesota.
There should be free field for any person who
wishes to file for public office and group of men
should set themselves up as having more political
+c1men than the voter who marks his ballot in tho
polling BOOTH This to be the trend of the times
and officeholders who want to feed at the public
trough and offceseekers who want to slide there OF
an Endorsement should learn this lesson

candidates for public office out of the hands of de
signing politicians who manipulate conventions anC
give the common people opportunity to do the
choosing.

BIG BILL HAYWOOD
DIES In RUSSIA

Moscow, May 1S.-The stormy life
of William D. big Bill" Haywood
ended suddenly Friday in the Krem-
lin hospital. He had dropped into
deep slumber after a hearty meal and
did not waken. His Russian wife,
whom he married in 1927 some years
after the death of his first wife in
America, was watching at his bedside.
The former secretary of the Ameri-
can Industrial Workers of the World
died from heart disease, although he
had been i'll fol some time from other
causes. Recently his condition had
improved considerably and attending
physicians, who a fortnight ago had
given him only few days to live, be-
gan to be more hopeful.
Thursday night Haywood had re-
ceived several of his friends and with
them had discussed the affairs of
communism, from which he had I'M
dergone a self-imposed exile from his
native land for more than seven years.
The body has been taken to the
Club of Political Refugees where it
lay in state Friday surrounded by a
guard of honor composed of Russian
and foreign communists. Later it
will be cremated, the place of burial
has not been decided upon.
The comparative inactivity for the
past five years of the former fiery
leader resulted in little stir in com
munist circles today when news OF
his death became public. Haywood
and his wife had been living quietly
and unostentatiously. While both
continued with their minor posts will
the government Haywood had been re
ported to have been writing his auto
biography.
The body of Haywood will be ere
! mated Saturday evening. He speci
fled in his will that half of his ashe
, should be buried in Chicago near tn
graves of his comrades who were eZ
ecuted after participation in the Hay
market riot. The other half he order
ed buried here, which will not be don
] until the next international congress
of communists. At that time ais
will be buried the remains of the Hur
garian communist, Lander.
William D. "Big Bill" Haywood, or
of the founders of the American II
dustrial Workers of the World, figu
ed as defendant in two trials whiC
j attracted national attention. In OF
he was convicted of hampering tt
T United States government in carryir

In its verdict the jury recommended

ton, the court imposed a minimum
sentence of Is years. This sentence
is without precedence in the history of
this state. 1t is declared reliably

seven members of the jury have per-

WASHINGTON GOSSIP
By LAURENCE TODD. Fed. Press.

Washington. Sen. Wagner,
of New York, political premier for
Gov. Al Smith, delivered by radio his
speech on unemployment he indicated
just how the New York candidate will
appeal to the workers, while pleasing
the employers, in the presidential cam
paign.
He described the tragedy of unem-
ployment as it has been felt by mil
lions of American families in every
period of depression. Having spoken
these truisms, Wagner, as the prophet
of Smith, demanded that the federal
government establish a permanent
commission whose duty shall be the
gathering of statistics and adjusting
plans for government works to absorb
