GOOD POLITICAL STRATEGY

Minneapolis Daily Star: Governor
Franklin d. Roosevelt has picked the
Twin Cities as his first speech out
side his own state in his campaign
for the Democratic nomination for the
presidency.
The choice of a location for this
keynote speech is strategic. Aside
from heartening the already hopeful
Democratic organization in this sec
ton it will emphasize to the whole
country the great popularity of the
New Yorker in the agricultural north
west.
The friendly attitude of leaders
among the Farmer-Laborites to the
Roosevelt candidacy will be brought
home to prospective delegates to the
national convention
With Hoover conceded the Repubii-
can nomination political interest CEN
tiers in the choice of the Democrats
and the Twin Cities will be delighted
at the opportunity to see and hear
and welcome the leading aspirant for
Democratic honors.

IN DRIVE FOR FUNDS

At a meeting of the Pine County
Democratic committee, called by the
chairman, DR.. F. F.. Callahan, at Pine
City Saturday afternoon, plans were
laid for an active, militant county or

poses, county, state and nation.

all those who are DESTROYS of Demo-
cratic success next November will
subscribe their bit to the Democratic
Fund drive. Mrs. Clint Boo will look
after collections in the south end of
the county, that is from Mission Greek
south, and Jim Brennan the north
end. Subscriptions by mail can be
sent to either of the mentioned col
lectors above or it can be sent
directly to j. ]. Madden, Pine
City, treasurer of the County Demo-
cratic committee. The present county
committee is composed of the follow
ing officers: Chairman, DR.. F.. F.. CAL
