SOME TALK OF
AN INDEPENDENT
Bitter Primary Campaign for Repub'
lican Nomination to Z. 5. Senate
has Its After Effects.
BY II. G. TEIGAN

One or the interesting Developments
following the bitter contest for the
Republican nomination for United
States senator is the prospect of an
Independent candidate being named
to make the race as dry.
Several names have been suggested
as possible candidates but as yet it
appears no one has been definitely
decided upon by the dry forces The
three nominees, Lundeen, Schall and
Hoidale, are not acceptable to the
Anti-Saloon League group and are not
likely to receive the support of any
other organized dry group. Hence
the looking around by these organiza-
tions for a strong candidate. Among
Senator Charles A. Lund of Vining.
Mr.. Lund was elected with Farmer
Labor support in 1922 and again in
1926. He is not a candidate for re-
election but was an aspirant for the
Republican nomination for lieutenant
governor and lost out to Senator John
H. Hougen. Lund made a strong bid
for the Republican nomination for
lieutenant governor, though it is a
well known fact that for the past ten
years he has been affiliated with the
Farmer-Labor movement
"Independent" Not SO Good.
Independent candidates for office
have not Jared we'll in Minnesota in
recent years and it is we'll to recall
that even in 1920 Henrik Shipstead,
George Mallon and Thomas V. Sui
Ivan, running as Independents and
with the support of the then powerful
Nonpartisan League, did not make the
showing that was expected of them.
Two years later DR.. Shipstead, run
ming as the Farmer-Labor nominee
for United States senator was elected
over Senator Kellogg and the rest of
the ticket made an excellent show
ing.
The dry forces of the state are not
acting wisely if they place an indie
pendent candidate in the field for
senator. Surely they would not like
to have the dry strength in Minnesota
measured by the vote that such an in
dependent candidate for senator might
poll. And yet that is exactly the con-
clusion that would be drawn from
such a result
There is another thing too that
might be borne in mind in connection
with the Lund candidacy. Mr.. Lund
is warm personal and political
friend of Thomas d. Schall. 1t will
be remembered that when the Mime
sofa state senate in 1927 adopted the
Lawson resolution to investigate the
Schall 1924 campaign, Senator Lund
joined with George H. Sullivan, L. p.
Johnson and Tom Mangan in opposing
adoption of the resolution. Inasmuch
as the dry forces would apparently
have in mind bringing about the de-
feat of Schall, they ought to possess
enough wisdom to know that one of
Schall's supporters would not be the
best method of bringing about the de-
sired results. Then too, it must be
considered that Lundeen and Hoidale
are both Scandinavians and another
Scandinavian, especially with a good
name like that of Lund, would simply
tend to aid Tom Schall.
Are the dry forces allowing them
selves to be duped by the Tom Schall
management?

P UBL|C TURNS
To COLORS

A recent trend of popular taste
in automobile body colors toward
more sober hues is noted by color
experts Of the Plymouth Motor
Corporation. In the growing taste
for quieter tones. the roadster is
a striking exception. On closed
models the preference is for dig
nifty in color expression, with rich
shades of maroon, blue, green and
lustrous black, meeting greatest
approval.
With the roadster, brilliancy
continues in demand. Where the
liking for open-air driving pre-
walls. there is apparent also an
undated taste for striking eff,
fects and the lighter and brighter
color combinations that have dis
tinguished automobile coach work
generally for the past few years.

EXPLAINS
SIMPLE RULES
FOR AUTOS
-ft wv Hh~

Two highly important reasons
why automobile owners should
stake stock" at the beginning Of
the new year and during the an
nual automobile shows are set
forth in a statement issued this
week by Joseph Trew. local Dodge
distributor.
First, according to the statement
all drivers should make sure that
their driving habits are in step
with the finer, safer and more eff
ficient machines they are being
given to handle.
Secondly, it is pointed out, that
1t is up to the owner to get the
performance and durability out Of
his car that has been designed
into it.
Until the individual motorist
assumes the responsibility OF re-
vamping his personal driving
habits and bringing them up to
date, progress toward the ideal for
which the industry and all others
interested are striving will be re
tarded" says Mr.. Trew.
Built for Safety
"The automobile of today is
built for absolute safety. Only
abuse can bring damage to it or
injury to its occupants. We must
all become the masters Of our
machines.
Drastic laws limiting speed
have been tried generally and
found wanting. There is but one
answer to the question of greater
safety: The drivers of 1880 model
automobiles must use 1880 driving
tactics. With a little brushing
up, the average driver today can
go safely and comfortably wher-
ever he chooses. The fundamental
rules of safe driving are very
simple. BY observing the fol
lowing rules and others which
individual experience dictates, mo-
florists will greatly improve driv
ing conditions for every one:
Always drive so that you have
room to stop safely within the
distance you can see clearly
ahead"
Never pass a car on a curve.
and especially never pass one
when approaching the brow Of a
hill.
Drive on the right-hand side
Of the road. Where white lines
divide the roadway, respect the
line.
Never drive when under the
Influence of liquor"
