Arrest on Robbery Charge
Young Man Charged With Burg

The robbery was reported to the

Born in Minneapolis Nov. 13,
1891, of Norwegian-Swed-
ish Parentage
SOLD PAPERS AS A LAD

City-Was Admitted to
Bar i'm 1915

Floyd B. OlSon'S election as gov
ernor of Minnesota climaxed a ca
reer he started as a newsboy on
the streets of Minneapolis His
career has been self-made. He has
been newsboy, farm hand, freight
"rustler," longshoreman, fisherman,
miner, salesman and successful
prosecutor.
He is the son of Paul Olson, born
at Thondhjem, Norway, and Ida
Nelson, born at Varnland, Sweden.
His parents came to Minneapolis in
1886, met and, in 1890 married here.
Paul Olson, as many an immi-
grant did, worked on railroad in
Minneapolis. He and his wife lived
happily on his scant wages. No
vember 13, 1891, a son was born to
them. They named the boy Floyd
Bjornstjerne Olson-the Bjornst-
jerne after Bjornstjerne Bjornson
Norway's greatest lyric poet and
orator.
For II years, life in the imn:i-
grant family was uneventful. Floyd
attended Grant school in north
Minneapolis, and was planning to
go through North high school. But
then came the business depression
and Paul Olson lost his job and
became ill. The situation was ser.
ious, for his small wages had jus,
enabled the family to live from
hand to mouth, and theyhad no
reserve on which to draw.
Floyd started selling newspapers
He was so diligent that he not only
provided for his family, but was
able to continue through North
high school, and to take an active
part in debating and other activi-
ties at school.
After his graduation from high
school, he went to work as a freight
trucker and harvest hand, earning
enough money for his family and
saving so he could receive a law
education.
In the summer of 1911 he saw a
chance to make money quickly.
There was land boom in western
Canada, and there he went as a
farm machinery salesman. But the
boom broke, and he was stranded.
He walked to the Pacific coast, and
there went to work as scowman,
a longshoreman and a fisherman.
He returned to Minneapolis in
1914, with money saved up, and en-
rolled in a night law school-North-
western College of Law. He got a
job in the law office of Frank D.
Larrabee and o. D. Davies. He was
graduated in 1915 and admitted to
the bar.
Two years later, he was married.
He now has daughter, 9 years
old, and lives at 1914 West Forty
ninth street, Minneapolis.
He continued his law practise,
and in May, 1919, on recommends
ton of several District Court
judges, was appointed assistant
county attorney.
AS assistant prosecutor, his fame
grew rapidly, September 10, 1920,
he was appointed county attorney
by the county board of commits
sioners. He was elected to the Of
fee in 1922 and reelected in 1926.
In 1924, urged by farmer-labor-
ties, he became a candidate for gov
ernor. He won the farmer-labor
nomination over a field of seven,
but failed in the elction.
