FARNIER-LABOR
Rxr A L Harric

Republican political writer's are
doing their utmost to put over their
claim that the primary election re-
suits, in the matter of total party
vote cast, showed a tremendous
gain for the conservative party.
They compare the total Republican
vote in the recent election with the
total Of the 1884 election. The argu-
ment is conclusive.
But there Is a fly in the oint-
ment. 1t is this: The Republicans
in 1884 went 100000 strong into the
Democratic primaries with the an
aounced and unconcealed purpose
of nominating a democrat who
would be satisfactory as a fusion
candidate. This was their only hope
to defeat Governor Olson. The Re
publican writers know this chow
could they possibly forget?) But
why destroy a perfect argument
which will put pep into the COM
ing gubernatorial campaign!
What story does the primary tell?
With virtually no campaign of i'm
portance to bring out a big vote
the Farmer Labor party polled the
same percentage of the total votes
cast that it did votes lost in 1884
and 1892 elections. The Republi.
cans failed to regain the votes lost
in 1884 by virtue of sneaking into
the Democratic camp. These are in.
controvertible facts, which lend ar
optimistic tinge to Farmer-Labol
hopes next November.

Aged citizens who have witnessed
the loss of a life-time's labor and
travail swept from them by man
made depressions have every sane
and sound reason in the world to
feel that society justly owes them
at least the few crumbs of subsist-
ance that old age benefits may Of
ford. This feeling was evidently
uppermost in the mind Of a north

suicide a day or so after his ap.

was denied by his county authori-
ties. It may be emphasized that old

PROGRESSIVE -tREPUBLICAN

PROGRESSIVE REPUBLICAN
BY r. w. Hitchcock
Primary election returns as to
nominees for the lower house Of
the legislature indicate that the
complexion Of the next House may
not be materially different from
that Of the last, when the top
strength of the independent-pro-
gressive group was SO and Of the
farmer-labor group 40. State and
local conditions both indicate that
some gains may be made by the
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS group.
All ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS who
stood for reelection were named
again with the exception of three.
In each of these three cases the
top vote was won by another con-
servatively-minded candidate. One
Of these three cases was the nom
nation Of Louis w. Hill, Jr., of
Ramsey, grandson of James ]. Hill,
by a vote which totals more than
the combined vote of his three OPP
ponents.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS follow
ing the primary vote, expressed
confidence that they would poll at
least 80 votes in the election for
speaker in the 1887 House.
The candidacy of women for the
legislature in Minnesota has fallen
far short of what was expected
when the suffrage amendment to
the Federal Constitution was
adopted by Minnesota in 1919. The
high for the representation Of wo-
men in the state legislature came
several years ago when the House
1929 had four women members
and the Senate (1927-33) had one.
The low came in 1885 when two
women members of the House and
meme in the Senate.
At the primary election this year
eight women were candidates for
House places-four in Hennepin
and four in the country-and six
women were nominated.
Mrs. Helen +. Warren in Cotton
wood county was nominated in the
tenth distict without a primary
contest, but will have opposition in
November.
Macbeth Hurd Paige, who has
served continuously in the lower
House since 1923 and thus becomes
the Dean of Women in the Mime
sofa legislature, was renominated
in the thirtieth legislative district,
topping all other candidates with
her vote.
In the same district Shirley Hell
err Edelston was also nominated on
June 18th as one of the four candi-
dates from which two are to be
elected.
In the thirty-third district Mrs.
p. c. Hitchcock was the only wo-
man to file in list Of IL candi-
dates. She beat out nine of the
men to win place on the ticket.
Mrs. P. J. Meighen won fourth
place on the representative ticket

The people of Minnesota seem to
be looking with increasing favor at
the rejuvenated G. o. p. The Ele-
plant surely strutted his stuff last
week, and 10, when the votes came
pouring in, Martin A. Nelson, the
small town lawyer" led all the
rest.
One of the most significant and
outstanding results of the primary
election of last week was found
each day down near the end of the
daily newspaper reports of the vote.
1t is the emphatic decision of the
people of the state in regard to
their supreme court. The people
served notice on party politicians
to keep their hands off.
Not only were the two sitting
judges, whose long service on the
bench has marked them as disting-
uished and learned judges both
within Minnesota and far beyond
its borders-not only were these
two sitting judges, Andrew Holt
and Royal A. Stone, given an over
whelming vote of approval, but the
attempt of a political party to in
ject partisanship into the court and
to place upon it men who would do
the party's bidding was sternly re-
buked by the voters Of the state.
Charles L. DeReu and Joseph A.
Poirier, put forward by the farmer
labor organization as farmer-labor
candidates for the supreme court,
were coldly loked upon by the peo-
pie. Notwithstanding the party
made a determined effort on be-
half of these men and they them
selves appealed to the passions and
prejudices of the electorate, they
failed to gain a place upon the
ticket, and two others for whom no
campaign was waged either by
themselves or by others, were IA
vored by the people over the parti-
san candidates of what was sup
posed to be the dominant" political
party of the state.
It is a heartening sign in great
democracy, when the people, who
so often follow after strange gods,
stand firm to keep their courts
above suspicion. This decision of
the people Of Minnesota to keep the
high court independent and free
from political bias, renews ones

Many Tourists Visit Lindbergh

During the week of June Z, 1852

The park, one Of the most popu-

district, where four representatives
are elected at large and where
eight candidates are nominated,
Mrs. Hannah J. Kempfer won sec
ond place, polling more votes than
all other candidates except Roy
Dunn who led by a wide margin.
Mrs. Kempfer, farm woman, was
first selected to the House in 1928
and has served continuously except
for the 1881 session.
Two women were defeated in the
primaries. In Cass county, fifty
second district, Mary T. Mason
failed to gain a place on the tick
ct, and in Chisago county, fifty
sixth district, Mrs. Rosanna Payne,
a former representative from Itasca
county, failed in an attempt to
come back.
Mrs. Laura Naplin, the only wo-
man senator in Minnesota history,
was first elected to the senate in
1927 to fill vacancy caused by the
death Of her husband, Senator Os-
car A. Naplin, Of Thief River Falls.
Mrs. Naplin was rejected in 1928
for a full four year term. She re-
tired in 1882 when she became a
candidate for clerk Of the supreme
court.
Republicans throughout Minneso-
ia feel very cheerful over the re-
suits of the primary election. While
the total vote fell off, the republi-
can vote increased, and the G. o.
p. again takes its place as the lead
ing party Of the state.
The farmer-labor vote fell off
84,625 from 1884 and the republican
vote increased 1925. Martin Mel
son, republican candidate for gov
ernor, shows gains in every one Of
the 70 counties in the state carried
against him in 1884.
The democrats suffered severely
in comparison with 1884, their to-
tai vote falling off 1875.
The total farmer-labor vote cast
for governor this year was 190,648
while the total republican vote was
2O2,011.
