" '} The efforts made by some parties to inject politics into the annual business meeting of the North- Central Minnesota Editorial associa- tion, which was held at Sauk Centre last Friday ‘and Saturday, was resented by the members of the as- sociation, who participated in the meeting, with the intention of talk- ing “shop” and enjoying pleasant in- tercourse. Some designing persons had con- ceived the idea of asking several prominent politicians to participate in the meeting and deliver addresses, but this was objected to; and late in the social session direct reference was made to the action, with the “tip” given from a member of the association who is quite prominent in its affairs that no politics would be allowed to be injected into the as- sociation, and that no politician need look for any favors from the organi- zation as a whole. The State Editorial association is fast degenerating into a political “machine,” of the first magnitude, with a few Twin city fellows at the bhelm, and the average country editor has about as° much oppor- tunity of having a word in the deliberations of that association as a snowball has of being preserved permanently in hades. Let it be understood that no politics are wanted, and none will be allowed, inthe affairs of the North-Central Minnesota Editorial association, which is a business organization, pure and simple, and formed for the advancement and preservation of the printing and publishing enterprises of section. IS STEPHENS CANDIDATE FOR U. S. SENATOR? That the politicians 'of the state are “keeping an eye” on State Sen- htor A. D. Stephens of Crookstori is indicated by the many insinuations that are being published guessing at the intentions of the Crookston man. It is known that Mr. Stephens has said that he would be a candi- date for no office at the next state election; but the following, taken from the Northfield News, is espec- , ially interesting: “It’s worth while these days to keep one’s eyes on A. D. Stephens, of Crookston. A. D. has powerful friends. He has taken a prominent part in the movement for agrieul- tural and industrial education. Indeed, he has made it a hobby, and much that has been done. recently in the state in that direction is due 40 his effort. “He is a shrewd and capable political manager. He isa Swede. He is said to be quitely nursing a . hearlthly senatorial ambition; and why not? Senator Nelson ig a Norwegian; and are not the Swedes entitled to share senatorial honors from Minnesota? And Stephens has the backing and the ability; and he may be able to head off John Lind.” BY THE WAY. . E. H.'D. this | What pleasure does he get out of smashing whiskey bottles? He’s a good fellow and we know of no other bad habits he has. Ask him and he’ll most likely refer you to Uncle Sam, Do you realize what early Christ- mas shopping means? 1t helps the merchant.

GOMPERS IS PLEASED Says Action of Highest Tribunal Means That Citizens of the Country Will Know Whether They Are En- titled to the Rights of Free Speech and Free Press—Decision Means Freedom for Condemned Men for the Present. ‘Washington, Dec. 7—The decision of Justice Wright of the District court in ordering President Samuel Gom- pers, Vice President John Mitchell and Secretary Frank Morrison of the Amercian Federation of Labor to jail for contempt of the court on account ‘of alleged violation of the injunction in the Buck Stove and Range case will be reviewed by the supreme court of the United States. Chief Justice Fuller announced that the court had granted the application for a writ of certiorari asking for a review of the judgment of the court of appeals which affirmed Justice Wright's decision. The effect of the ‘decision will be to bring the entire record in the Buck Stove and Range company case against these men to the supreme court for review. The three defendants, who were in court when the decision was an- founced, were highly pleased. A num- ber of friends who waited the de- cision followed them into the hallway, where an informal 'reception was held. ' " Gompers Very Much Pleased. “To say that the decision pleases me 1s putting it mildly,” said Mr, Gompers, “and I think I can speak for Mitchell and Morrison also. The granting of the writ means 'that the supreme court. of the United States will review the entire Buck Stove and Range controversy and the merits of the injunction’ proceedings. It means that . we shall finally-get a decision one way or the other, as to whether citi- zens of the United States are entitled to the rights of free speech and free press, ‘which are guaranteed them by the Constitution. “We have wanted all along to get this particular issue before this court. If the court decides against us then we will know that in order to get the right which our forefathers thought they were securing for us it will be necessary, to have new laws, or pos- sibly an amendment to the Constitu- tion itself.” Incidentally, the decision means that @ompers, Mitchell and Morrison will notu have-to go to jail for .a while if at all, ) TAX WOULD' AFFECT LORDS Members, of British Peerage Heavy i ‘Owners of Realty.
