clear in his mind that it was just
primary election. His daughter told
him he wasn't able to go to the polls,
but he declared he was and wouldn't
give his family any peace until they
consented to take him.
Mrs. limbaugh also tried to have
his ballot brought to his room for
marking but election officials could

attorney, an office he held for four
years. His next move in the poll
| teal field came when friends urged
him to file for state senator in 1884
He was elected and became chair
man Of the important senate tax
committee. He Immediately plunged
into a study of the intricate tax
problem, working long hours over
time. AS a result, he became ex-
pert in that phase of government.
Three governors of Minnesota have
appointed him as state delegate to
national tax conferences and in
that capacity he made trips to Bal
timore, Oklahoma City and San
Francisco.
Reelected senator in 1888, Mr..
Miller gained prominence as one of
the inner council of the state ad-
ministration, especially in tax mat
ters. Governor Stassen called on
him frequently during the 1889 ses-
sion of the legislature to aid him
with his program.
Senator Miller served several
times on interim committees, his
most recent activity being an ex-
tensive study of taxes and munich
pal affairs in the Iron Range coun-
try. He also served on the state
emergency council, with three other
legislators and the governor and on
the state committee studying new
uses for Minnesota resources.
Mr.. Miller was born in st. Paul
March Is, 1891. He attended the
public schools in st. Paul and was
graduated from the law course at
the University of Minnesota in 1912.
After reading law for several
months in Minneapolis, he moved
to Pine River in 1918, where he
went on his own as a young lawyer.
For nearly two years during the
war he was in the service, secur-
ing a commission as captain and
serving as adjutant of an infantry

Edmund w. Miller, of st. Peter

His father died a few months ago
Senator Miller, like his distin.
guished predecessor, the late Sen.
ator Chris Rosenmeier, figured pro
minently in the development OF
Camp Ripley and was close to Gen.
eral e. A. Walsh in military af.
fairs. He was a member of the
Lions club, American Legion, and
knights of Columbus, having served
term as grand knight of the local
council.
The following editorial from the
Little Falls Transcript was written
as a tribute to Senator Miller,
whose success in political and bus
mess life was phenomenal:
"A shocked community today
mourns the death of an outstand-
ing citizen, Senator Frederick j.
Miller. Little Falls, Morrison coun-
ty and the state had seen him rise
in the course of II years from a
practically unknown young attor-
ney to one of the leading members
of the upper legislative branch, a
state and national authority on
taxation.
THAT he should be cut off in his
prime-he was not yet 50-is a
tragedy hard to realize. Fred Mill
err possessed a fine mind. He was
a hard worker, pouring hours over
facts and figures, giving freely of
his time and talent to produce the
answers the public wanted to
know.
These qualities were evident dur
ing the short time he was mayor
and showed even clearer as county
attorney. A natural leader, he had
prospects of rising still higher.
That three governors, representing
various shades of political thought,
should have chosen him to repre-
sent the state at national tax con-
ferences reveals the high regard
with which he was held at the cap
itol. His integrity and ability were
above question. Few members of
the legislature ever worked longer
hours or drove themselves harder.
Fired will be sadly missed and
a bereaved community reveres his
memory"
