~ HANDS OF NEITHER ARE CALLOUSED BY HIS WORK Johnson and Jacobson Never Sweat Much by Engaging in “Tilling the Soil.” [BY MARY D. M’FADDEN. ] Disinterested people are extract- ing considerable amusement from the efforts of certain partisians to prove the close relation to laboring men held by Governor Johnson on the one hand, and Hon. J. F. Tacobson, on the other. The former, before his successful entrancé into state politics, was editor and publisher of the St. Feter Herald, a printer and general man of all work about his own shop. The latter has been for years a dealer in farm implements = and neither a sawer of wood nor a drawer of water, save as ordered or requested by the wife of his bosom to do the chores incident to the domestic working hours of a man who spends a certain amount of his time around | home. Neither candidate for need be expected to show calloused hands, but neither candidate is, or has been, a mau of leisurely habits. Running a newspaper in a coun- try town is no sinecure. Conducting a farm implement business in a village keeps a healthy man quite fully occupied during business hours. Neither candidate for governor has ever been quite comfortably pro- vided with the world’s goods, and the necessity to hustle for a living has been plain to both since boy- hood. Mr. Jacobson stands upon his record and asks recognition for it. Governor Johnson points to his governor | stewardship and feqiiests the voters reward him with more of it.. When Mr. Frank M. Eddy, wayé facetious, said that Mr. Jacob- son eats pie with a knife, he in- tended to be jocular. ! newspapers took him seriously and there are thousands of people who think that the Lac Qui Parle man | takes his dessert in this manner, and likes him none the less for it, Mrs. Jacobson says he doesn’t eat pie at all. ¢ Certain unpretty and untrue stories were circulated as to Gover- nor Johnson’s early life and dis- proved—and there you are. Republicans and independent voters ara asked to give Jacob F. {Jacobson the earnest of their appre- ciation of his services to the state at the polls next month. | Democratic Voters of all classes gand independent voters—and Re- publican voters, too—are requested to stand for two more years of Gov- ernor Johnson’s admiration. What will be done by a majority of the voters remains to be seen. Thos in charge of the respective campaigns are happy and confident. } Both have had the advantages of short periods of study in Neither is a college man. But it is silly to talk of Mr. Jacob- son’s hands being “roughened and hardened by labor,” or to infer that his opponent is hard-fisted from manual toil So far as his conduct in the role of a man earning his bread by his own efforts is concerned, each candi- schools. is no occasion to make either appear other thanhe has been in the world of endeavor. Mrs. K. Gibbs and baby came in from Turtle River this morning and spent the day “‘shopping” and visit- of Mianesota to approve of it, and ‘Popular Northomite Took as His Wife Readers of | date has an honest record, and there" Miss Florence Shook, Estim- able Young Lady. Cass Lake, Oct. 9.—(Special to Pioneer.)—A pretty wedding was solemnized yesterday morning at the home of C. M. Taylor,.a local mer- chant, when Miss Florence Shook and P. S, Scribner, a popular Northome couple, were united in the holy bonds of matrimony. _The ceremony was performed by Reverened Barr, of the Congrega- tional church of this city, in the parlor of the Taylor home which was tastfully bedecked with autumn leaves. Mrs, Taylor played the wedding march. The bride was dressed in a beauti- ful white gown and the groom wore the conventional black. An exceilent wedding breakfast | was served at 11 o’clock to the | party which included about eighteen close friends and relatives of the bridal couple. Tke table was decor-| ated with pink and white carnations and ribbon. The newly-married couple left on the atternoon train for Bemidji and from there returned to Northome where Mr. and Mrs. Scribner will make their future home. Mr. Scribner is the Northome manager for the Duluth Logging company. Government After **Pernicious” Employes. “Pernicious activity” in politics on the part of government employes is being frowned upon by the fed- eral authorities, as witness the fol- lowing telegram from Washington, ing with friends in this city. 1 gy - Oct. 9.=The civil service commiigsion yesterday issued a statement announcing that Paul W. Cox, a substitute clerk in the Robinson, IIl, postoffice, has been removed from' office, and H. B. Thomas, clerk in the Orangeburg, S. C., postoffice severely reprimanded and reduced in salary from $900 to $800 a year beginning last Thursday, both because of “pernicious political activity.” Cox, while a clerk refused to with- draw from his active canvassasa Prohibition candidate for clerk’éi Crawford county, Ill, saying he understood it was none of the de- partments business so “long as he performed his duties satisfactorily. Thomas was chairman of the district Republican committee and the commission sustained complaints against him ‘of obnoxious activity, but on jts recommendation, in view of his good reputation' and record, he was not removed but severely disciplined and required to resign his chairmanship immediately on penalty of dismissal.
