he Is to be commended. It Is not the
first time honest men have disa-
greed on fundamental issues. On
the other hand, Senator Shipstead
has on many occasions supported
the President and for this support,
II not for the dignity Of his high
position, he was deserving Of better
treatment.
But to my old friend" business.
How old must friendship be to be
old? Gov. Benson is but youth. A
short six years ago he was nom
entity, and remained so until the
late Gov. Olson elevated him to the
State Securities Commission, then
to Banking Commissioner, and
then upon the death of Sen. Schall,
to the United States Senate.
It Is safe to say that until Gov.
Benson took his seat in the United
States Senate, the President never
knew that Benson existed. Even
though the President had known
Gov. Benson during all Of the days
of his public life, such acquaintance
surely could not be considered an
old acquaintance, much less an old
friendship.
1t was clearly a political move, a
salutation made to entice the vot-
ers of Minnesota, at least who ac-
cept Roosevelt as their God, to sup
port Benson in his efforts to again
sell the Democratic party in this
state for a mess of Farmer-Labor
pottage.
Perchance the Democrats of Min
nesota will be sold down the river
once more, and, then on the other
hand, perchance having so once
been sold, they will throw off the
shackles, and guide their own des-
tinies.-Murray County Herald.

Omit Exporting
From Our Exchanges

Omit Exporting
There seems to be q strong senti-
ment among a majority of the Am
erican people in favor of our gov
eminent stopping the export of
scrap iron to warning nations. Sem
ator Nye, of North Dakota, recent
ly published figures showing how
one Philadelphia firm last year re-
ceived $32,00O,0OO for scrap iron
sold abroad, most of it to Japan.
The net profit on those sales
amounted to over $3,0O0000. The
price of scrap iron is much higher
this year and the profits will be
much larger. In the meantime the
visible supply of iron ore in this
country Is becoming smaller each
year. The holes in the ground on
the Minnesota Iron Range are be-
coming larger and larger and un-
less all signs fail the next genera
ton will have only barren wastes
where the rich mines once flourish
ed. We hear a great deal about
conservation and we might start
conserving our supply of iron by
refusing to sell scrap iron to for
eign nations engaged in killing
each other.-Waseca Herald.
Fed Up On War
The world must be fed up on war
for with all the screaming head
lines of the past six months, the ma
tions of Europe are sitting tight,
and there is no World war.
The guns would have been roar
ing all over Europe a quarter OF a
century ago, upon far less provoca-
ton than has been witnessed dur
ing the past summer.
The answer is the people are fed
up on war. There may be some,
who desire to jump into the front
line trenches for the pleasure OF
killing and being killed, but they
are fewer and farther between than
before the World war. That strife
taught the common people what
war is. It will take some time to
erase the memory of that world
wide cataclasm.
There may be war in Europe, but
it is slower in coming than in any
other period Of the worlds history.
People just do not desire to kill
and be killed. The fear of the at
termath is another thing that is
deterring those sitting in high
places from throwing the world in
to strife.-New Ulm Daily Journal.
my Old Friend, Benson"
It was rather amusing to most
people, we are sure, to hear Presi-
dent Roosevelt alude to Gov. Ben
son as my old friend, Governor
Benson" It was rather discomfort
ing to most people, we are sure, to
wait in vain for the President to
make the slightest reference to
Senator Henrik Shipstead. The
first was a joke; the second an I'M
called for insult to one who COM
mands the respect of every Mime
sotan, regardless of party or creed.
OF course it was to be expected
that the Presidents trip was moth

junket-despite his denial-but few
felt that he would let his prejudices
guide him to so great an extent.
Senator Shipstead did oppose the
Presidents Court plan, for which

Will Tighten Purse Strings

President Roosevelt has served notice that he will
tighten the strings of the treasury and that To-
cal and private relief activities must be increased
Federal help for the needy is curtaed in an effort
to balance the budget and avoid higher taxes.
For the first A days of the current fiscal year
the government spent 1854 1894 it's receipts were
$675 375 562 55-the deficit s279429621.39 And the
President forecast that figures in red ink would
to $685., 900 by next June 30.
In 1892 we were informed by the Republican
presidential candidate Herbert Hoover that relief
work a problem for the local communities. The
Federal government took it in the crisis Today
after almost six years has elapsed, again in
formed that the Federal government must more and
narrow the circle of it's relief activities and
that local and private activities must be increased
And that after we thought Uncle Sam would be San

However, it is not relief alone which is response

says the treasury has simply become vast and

to perpetuate themselves in office dig in for more
and more-and the race goes merriy on. No one act

Harold StasSen For Governor

The announcement that Harold E. Stassen of
South St. Paul. the first avowed candidate for
the Republican nomination for governor in 1888 did
not come surprise in Republican circles. There
are many in the Republican party who hoped that
he would find it possible to throw his hat in the ring
The young attorneys activities in the Younger
Republican organization and his record County
Attorney of Dakota County led many of his friends
to believe that he would be good gubernatorial mat
erial, and it through that belief that they urged
him to become a candidate.
Harold Stassen is young, energetic and well edu-
position which he seeks. His parents were sturdy
pioneers of Dakota County, of German Scandinav-
ian and Czech descent He labored on the homestead
when boy and through his farm background be-
came acquainted with farm problems generally. He
has sound principles of thrift integrity and hard
work, and he has demonstrated these qualities in
public service He and his wife and son live in South
ST. Paul, where he is active in civic affairs and
where he is member of the we'll known Hook EN-
Cows" He worked his way through the University
OF Minnesota as clerk in a grocery store, grease
boy in large bakery, adding machine operator and
later sleeping conductor securing the degrees of
Bachelor of Arts and Laws.
In 1880 Harold Stassen elected county at
torney of Dakota County He proved to be clean,
able and fearless prosecutor and result has been
kept in the office since that time.
From the SIassen for Governor Volunteers, in
Guiding and women of every party and every
walk of life, comes the following statement:
Harold E. Stassen is the of pioneer
Dakota County farmer parents and has first
hand knowledge of farm problems. He DEM
onstrated his understanding of the problems
of agriculture when he acted as legal counsel
without pay for the fluid milk committee of
Dakota and adjoining counties at the time
of the milk strike in 1882 and successfully
handled negotiations for the peaceful ad-
justnent of the grievances of milk produc-
ers"
His friendship for labor shown in
1888 when he refused to permit unnecessary
force to be used against striking packing
house workers and prosecuted complaint
against the employer for violation of strike
settlement agreement. At the same time he
proved his opposition to un-American in
fuences in labor troubles by acting to have
outside communistic agitators arrested and
barred from the ranks of strike leaders"
Although young, he has had wide experience, and
is fitted for the office he seeks People of the state
will hear more about Harold Stassen in short time,
and believe, they will like him. He is not an old
line politician, but liberal Republican, young man
who, believe can lead the party in the right dir
ection, who bring it back to popular appeal If
given a chance.
