Democrat Says He Would

The point of campaign ethics raised

radio speech before its delivery and
preparing an answer on the basis of

cratic rally in Brooklyn last night that
the Republican administration. through
the Smoot -Hawlev tariff. had pros

first was discussed in the Senate
That war" said Mr.. Baker, was
declared by the Republican party

He denied that the Hoover regime
has proposed any constructive answer
to the present economic situation. and
added:
The things which Mr. Hoover in his
speeches night after night recounts as
unparalled achievements and proposals
without exception the use of the credit
of the Federal Government to lend
money to somebody to help him over
the length of these bad times"
Mr.. Baker predicted the election Of
Gov Franklin D Roosevelt and John

vanced by one of the candidates for
the legislature here in st. Paul, an
idea that appeals to me as in the
interest of good government.
For years we have read statistics
and had 1t drummed into our ears that
only about so per cent of the voters
of the country take enough interest In
their government to get out and vote.
That's bad, of course, under our boosted
representative democracy.
Now comes Doc La BiSsoniere candi-
date for representative in the legis-
lature from the And district, with the
suggestion that general election day be
made a national holiday like Wash
ington's birthday and the Fourth of
July, so that no voter shall have ex-
cuse for not voting, unless he is ply
sically unable to get to the polls.
Considering all the agitation for a
five-day week and six-hour day as
solution of some of our economic ills,
Docs suggestion seems to be quite
timely as well as logical and intended
to make more citizens political
minded"
Why not?.

Not being politician and strongly
detesting the underhand methods re-
sorted to by some politicians seeking
public election, Earle Brown avoided
entering any contest for Office. How
ever, his outstanding qualities as a
leader soon had the reputable farmers,
business men and labor leaders clamor-
ing for his entry into the gubernatorial
race in Minnesota in 1880. He fatty
refused.
The situation in the state had become
acute during the early part of this year
and again Earle Brown was pleaded
with to announce himself for governor
He declined to consider it until the
Republican convention by unanimous
vote drafted him for the important
post. He could not well refuse this
mandate and bowed once again to the
public wish, knowing full well such a
decision was costing him much. 1t
meant a financial loss, for he must
abandon business, and it meant less
time on the farm he loves SO well.
At the primaries Republican voters
approved his sacrifice and gave him a
tremendous vote.
Mr.. Brown assured Republican
leaders he would conduct a strenuous
campaign along his own lines. He
would make no promises and would not
claim he could put customers in every
store and automobiles in every garage.
He would not serve any one interest
but would represent all interests, farm
ing, labor and business. He would give
the people economy in state affairs,
efficiency and honesty. These were
the campaign aims of Mr.. Brown
briefly.
Perhaps nothing characterizes the
man so much as statement he made
over the radio just prior to the pri-
mary election. He said:
at will, OF course, be an honor to be
elected governor of this great state, but
not at the price of personal or political
self respect. I do not approve and I
will not use some of the methods by
which politicians seek office. Under no
circumstances will I address the voters
in a spirit of hatred and prejudice. If
it is necessary to stoop to such an
appeal to become governor of this state,
I am not qualified to head the ticket
of the Republican party. If it is nee
essary to create distruSt between the
people of one class and another, be-
tween the people of one race and
another, between the people of one
creed and another, in order to win cleo
ton, will not be governor If votes
can be obtained only by the offer OF
false hopes and unsound remedies for
the ills of our economic and social
order of Minnesota; if it is necessary
to make promises which should not be
made and cannot be reasonably kept,
then again, say will not be governor
of Minnesota"
That is the man, Earle Brown,
straight forward, honest, courageous
and humble. His is philosophy of
service. He seeks the company of the
average citizen, for he understands his
language. He wants no sham and will
condone no nonsense. He viii tread
any ground in the interest of his Office
and his people. He viii sacrifice him
self that the masses may benefit. He
will guard their interests and their
funds and will fight that the common

st. Paul, Aug. 9, 1932.-Aside from
more than the usual internecine fights,
the state campaign so far Is ap-
parently just zone picnic after the
other"-with the best of indications
that the entire campaign is going to
be more or less of picnic" some
body or othes-with chances favoring
Mr. Somebody or Mr.. Other.
At the present writing it doesn't
seem to make much difference whether
Mr.. Somebody or Mr.. Other is going
ito be elected-the average voter isn't
concerning himself or herself overmuch
about it, The farmers are busy bring
ing in the sheaves," the laborer in the
cities isn't overburdened bringing in
his paycheck, the unemployed are still
bringing home alibis and faint promises
of jobs to come-but Time, that in
evitable and unacceptable tyrant, is
bringing us all daily closer to election
day and our individual decisions as to
names behind which to mark our *. "
All of which spells 'picnic" is,
if you spell it the way I am tempted
to spell it these days, when about all
the political news handed out Is that
such-and-such an officer is going to
speak at such-and-such community
picnic on such-and-such day.
This, in turn, merely means that
most candidates are marking time"
preparatory to the real campaign by
appearing at picnicS and other similar
community celebrations, perhaps max
ing short talks but generally being
satisfied with Misunderstanding and the
other usual methods of the personal
contact" kinds of campaign until the
candidates for governor have "explod-
ed their keynote addresses.
According to the best information so
far obtainable, Gov. Olson will form
ally open his campaign for reelection
when he makes the annual Labor Day
address at Duluth and Earle Brown,

5000 to 10000 people at each of the
three picnics? Let them tell about
it,
I'd rather make a bit of mention
about what some Of the speakers said
at these meetings. Gov. Olson rather
surprised some of his adherents at the
F'armer-Labor picnic by declaring that
unless something is done soon by way
of changing the capitalistic system"
the only remedy will be "the socializa-
ton of industry"
The expression has rather familiar
sound to some of us old timers
who used to listen once in a while
to the soap-box orators of the Socialist
party, yet I hesitate to say that the
governor has turned Socialist, notwith-
standing his apparent claim to the
contrary-if you get what mean.
Lest either the governor or I be
misunderstood, let it be said that his
speech was made to a big group of
Twin City union labor folks. not to a
bunch of farmers. circumstances
alter cases" .as the old copybook maxim
has it. Personally, don't believe Gov.
Olson is yet ready to "renounce the
devil and all his works" by going So
cialist, but some folks might easily in
terpret his statement differently.
Gov. Schafer, North Dakota, the
principal speaker at the G. o. p. picnic
at Lake Minnetonka took some shots
at the original Nonpartisan league in
his state (organized by our old friend,
Art Townley), but declared his belief
that sit is fallacy to swap horses in
the middle of the stream"-in other
words that President Hoover deserves
reelection. 'The Democratic platform
contains no assurance of better things
to come than does the Republican plat
form, in fact, not nearly such good
assurance" he said.
John Regan, Democratic candidate
for governor, returned to his favorite
pastime of lambasting Charlie Bah
cock and his administration of the state
highway department and claiming that
he will, if elected governor, "save many
millions of the taxpayers money" by
doing away with unnecessary state
bureaus, commissions and departments,
besides removing lot of unnecessary
employees and putting thousands of de-
serving men on the payroll by doing
away with the use of machinery in
building our highways.
John is some promiser- only wish
I GOULD believe it possible for any gov
ernor to do what he says he will and
can do, if elected. Having been in
fairly close contact with state adj
ministration affairs for some 30-odd
years, however, may be excused for
emulating the proverbial Scotchman to
the extent of "havin' me doots."
Just heard a rather new idea adj

STATE CAPITOL CHATTER

Republican candidate for governor, will
give his keynote address some day the
week after state fair week.
John E. Regain, Democracy's stormy
petrol" hasn't announced yet when he
will keynote" but it is suspected in
political circles. that he will wait until
after his two opponents have had their
say, just so that he can jump onto
both with equal vigor-and possibly his
usual exaggeration.
In making the latter prediction I
don't mean to be understood as under
estimating Regan's courage-he would,
no doubt, gladly give his keynote talk
before his opponents deliver them
selves as a minority candidate he
might find it to his advantage to let
the other fellows do their stuff" first
so he can lambast both of them so
much more vigorously.
Yet, being what he is, Regain may
decide to do just the opposite and be
the first of the three candidates for
governor to tell the world" where he
stands and why.
Getting back to what I meant to be
the main track, about this campaign
starting out TO be a picnic, let it only
be said that all three parties had big
picnic meetings last Sunday in the
Twin Cities area.
The Republicans had theirs Sunday
at Mound, Lake Minnetonka, with Gov.
George Schafer, North Dakota, as
principal speaker, while Gov. Olson
was the big gun" at Ramsey County
Farmer-Labor party picnic at McCar-
ron's lake, just outside of st. Paul, and
John Regain made it unanimous, so to
speak, by making talk late the same
day at q Catholic parish picnic at
Mendoza, also just outside of the st.
Paul city limits.
The daily papers have printed stories
enough about all three picnic-meetings,
so I won't go into detail. (Why should
I when the papers said there were from

The Federal Relief Bill,

setting aside $3OO,OOO,OOO of
federal credit for the relief of
restitution. Under this law
the several states may borrow
from this fund according to the
need of the particular state.
However, it must be remem-
bered that each state must pay
back what it borrowed. If
local unemployment and relief
conditions warrant it, loans
should be put through. If not
actually needed it should not
be borrowed under the mis-
taken idea that the govern
ment will take care of local
unemployment and poor relief
problems. The fund is there

be treated as such.

Our suggestion of two weeks
ago that those petitioning for
an examination of public Off
Gals be charged with the cost
of the same in case nothing is
found to bear out their state
ments of misconduct in office,
has met with favor by a large
number of taxpayers who have
informed the Miner that this
was a sound idea. Personal
grudges are in many cases the
prime factor in these investi-
cations which cost the tax
payers a pretty penny. When
criminal manipulations of pub
lie funds are discovered, the
examination serves good pur-
pose and the taxpayer is pro-
tected. When only mere tech
nical evasions of the thousands
of laws on the statutes are
shown without criminal intent,
nothing much is saved by the
audit. The expenses go on
just the same and the taxpayer
is stuck with the cost. 1t is all
too easy to make claims and
sign petitions where no re-
sponsibility is involved. Make
those signing such a petition
put up bond for the expenses.
Two weeks ago a news item
brought out case in point.
A farmer at Sandy had petit
toned for a road to his home
a distance of half a mile. In
stead the township board ap-
propriated $3.50 to move the
home to the road instead of
spending several thousand dol
lars on a highway to serve one
party. The state public ex-
aminer declared this illegal
and the twnship officials will
be compelled to repay the $3.50
Notwithstanding the fact that
they saved several thousand
dollars to the taxpayer. Laws
and figures evidently do not
associate with common sense.
This is not the first time this
same thing has happened.
Tourists passing through Vir-
ginia were informed in that
city that the road between Vir-
ginia and Ely was impossible
according to a letter received
by the Virginia Chamber of
Commerce from Mr.. and Mrs.
Alfred Levitt of New York.
To further cinch the misinfor-
nation spread on the road
situation, Miss Ida Koski of this
city, returning from a trip to
Yellowstone Park, was in
formed at Virginia that No. z
was impossible. The Virginia
c.. of C. has issued a bulletin
to filling station attendants,
stores, restaurants and others
coming in contact with the
touring public which reads !:

can far better admit ignorance

League Pennant

WRIGLEY FIELD, Chicago,
Sept, 20.-tU.P)-ClimaXing one of
the greatest comebacks in recent
baseball history, the Chicago Cubs
clinched the National league pen
nant today by defeating the Pitts
burgh Pirates, SO, in the first
game of a double header before
$4,000 persons.
The Cubs cannot lose the PEN
nant now even if they lose their
remaining five games and the Pi-
rates win their remaining seven.
Guy Bush, the Cubs swarthy
right-hand pitcher and Kiki Guy
Ter, veteran right fielder, shared
the hero role in the deciding game.
Bush, pitching courageously, hung
up his 18th victory of the season
the greatest number of games he
has ever won for the cubs.
With the score tied % in the
seventh inning and the bases fill
ed, Cuyler slashed a triple to the
farthest left field corner of Wrig-
ley field off Steve Swetonic, and
scored three runners.
