There are three or four well known Minnesota newspapers which are doing -themselves a great deal of discredit by the of- fensive way in which they are ac- ceptiug the nomination of Robert C. Dunn for governor. These papers supported Judge Collins and the smart of defeat is so great that they are now iinpugn- ing their own republicanism, Speaking of Dunn’s nomination one of them this week says: Desperate methods were put into practice and vicious precedents were established to bring about this result. Elsewhere in the same article it intimates that Mr. Dunn’s nomination was not honorably and fairly secured. Why a reputable newspaper will persist in such statements in the face of facts is unexplain- able. The nomination of Mr. Dunn was made certain by the vote of the convention upon the question as to the adoption of the minority report of the commit- tee on credentials. The vote was |a fair and square test of the Dunn and Collins' forces. On this ballot the Dunn men cast 6224 votes or 834 more than a majority. This vote was taken under the rules laid down by the state cen- tral committee, a Collins body, and the rules had been made as favorable to Judge Collins as the ingenuity of the committee could devise. The state central com- mittee itself upset all precedent by the adoption of the rule that contesting delegations should: be allowed seats and votes in the convention. Under this rule Anoka county cast ten votes for Dunn, Beltrami county ten votes for Collins and Cass and Roseau counties nine and eight votes re- spectively for both candidates. Suppose the usual rule had been followed; Dunn would have lost the votes of Anoka, Cass and Roseau counties, a total of twenty-seven and his vote would have been 5954 or six and one- half votes more than enough to nominate. At all times in the convention Dunn had more than enough votes to nominate entirely out- side of the contested counties. Had Collins been given every con- tested delegate Dunn would still The Collins and Eddy strength com- bired never had enough votes to nominate anybody. The maéhiuery of the party was entirely in the hands of the Collins men. Nobody but they bad any cpportunity to do any- thing that was dishonorable or unfair. All Bob Dunn had was the votes. The only thing that the Collins people did not have was the votes. The nomination of Robert C. Dunn was made as fairly and squarely as was ever any nomi- nation made under the sun. The Collins newspapers should quit their intimations to the contrary or get out of the party. If they don’t do one of the other pretty soon they will be read out. have had votes to spare. THE socialists in Polkk and Ottertail counties plan to put a full ticket in the fleld this fall. The socialists have slowly gained strength during the past ten years but the greatest peril in the existence of the party now confronts it. With the disolution ] of the popullst party in northern their time in every other party are now ulgmg their way into leadership wigh the socialists The socialist “party may neyer amount to a great deal but it will never amount to anything if it does not rid itself of these para- sites. In SEEMS that David B. Hill got everything he wanted after all. His man was named for the presidency and though the con- vention omitted to sanction the gold standard in its platform it was forced to tell Mr. Parker that the gold standard was per- fectly satisfactory. Night Was Her Terror. “I would cough nearly all night long,” writes M. Chas. Apple- aate, of Alexandria, Ind., ‘“and could hardly getany sloe-p 1 had consumption so bad that if I walked ablock I would cough frightfully and spit blood, but, ‘when all other medicines fluled three $1.00 bottles of Dr. King’s New Discovery wholly me and I gained fifty-eight pounds.” It’s absolutely gunaranteed to cure coughs, colds, la grippe, bron- chitis and all throat and lung troubles.

The Union’s office towel took a bath to celebrate the victory and the office force has given it ten days leave of abseuce on full pay. —Princeton Umon Mr. Hays announces that he is going to retire from office every county officer. What—just like he carried Beltraml county: for Dunn? One of the hits of the. repub- lican state convention was made| by a speaker who declared that “‘the democratic p'nty maligns republican leaders as vigor oualy while they are living as it canon- izes them after they are dead.” The contest for the legislature between Ashur Murray and County Treasurer Wm. Dower, of Wadena county, is keeping things at the usgal political boil- ing point in"Wadena county. Mr. Mm ray appears to have consid- erably the bestof it in Wadena county and theé Pioneer Journal declares that he will carry. Todd county despite that county s re- cent endorsement of Dower. A few newspapers keep on harping upon the theme of Dunn’s opposition to Clapp. Mr. Dunn has publically declared that if elected governor he will in no way attyempt, to influence the appointment of a United States senator. Mr. Duun kept his word in every instance with the people of Minnesota during the eight years he was a public offi- cial and there can be no reason for doubting that he will keep it now. One of the remarkable things in Minnesota politics this year was the clean sweep made by Dunn in Clearwater county. The county was claimed for Collins from the first and Dunn gave it absolutely no attention. Yet Dunn carried every precinet in the county but one. In reality the people of the county were in- clined to Dunn although nearly all the leaders were Collins men. The carrying of the county for Dunn in the face of these facts was as pretty a piece of political maneuvering as one often sees. L. H. Bailey, who says that he |}, can vote Bemidji any old way he pleases any old time, is out of town—in St. Paunl—where he is said to be iudustriously whisper- ing this fact in the ear of Sena- tor Clapp, chairman of the recent republican state convention, as a reason why he should be ap- pointed state committeeman for this district. If Mr. Bailey is really a candidate for the place his eminent services on behalf of Mr. Dunn and his friends at the staté convention will doubtless recommend him highly for the place.
