Any National Political Party
that has been In power since 1892

of this writer be removed from Of

ton Is bound to spawn and grow
fat, sleek and corrupt in less time.
Maybe the same situation of a
lesser degree holds good in State
politics. What about the old heads
at our state capital?
Attorney General J. A. A. Burn
quist; Stafford King, State Audi
tor; Julius A. Schmahl, State
Treasurer; and Mike Holm, secre-
tary Of State. They have carried
lot Of weight around this state
for a good long time. They all
seem to be trying 10 bulldoze Gov
ernor Youngdahl in his persistent
effort to remove Charles Foster
(bonds). Foster is secretary Of the
executive council, the investment
board and the state pardon board.
The investment board claim that
they have $4,000, 900 of state sur
plus funds TO invest. The governor
wants a straight shooter but the
big four that have been hanging
around the state capital and feed
ing at the public trough for years
and years, still wish to feather
Fosters nest at taxpayers ex-
pense.
The State of Minnesota needs
badly: A brand new Attorney
General State Auditor State
Treasurer and Secretary of State.
Why not get set for new blood
and honesty and integrity at the
State Capital this coming State
election? Lets give Youngdahl on
entire new staff, patterned as
much as possible with the honesty,
integrity and humanitarian prin-
cipals as the governor himself.
We predict Youngdahl VIII be
reelected for a third term. The
four old war horses who oppose
him, win be retired TO the green
pastures for rest and relaxation.
The gentle winds win blow away
