A man who canrun for governor on the demo- cratic ticket with county option as one of his planks is a curiosity. THINK IT OVER. A. M. Funck, county attorney of Cass county, when he went to Min- neapolis to present the state’s side of the Sero-Davis assault case in federal court, was besieged by Twin City reporters, the newspapers there realizing that a statement of fact regarding the real conditions at Cass Lake from sucha man would be a matter of important news. They secured no interview and the only words so far uttered for publication by that official appeared in last night’s daily Pioneer. ROOSEVELT ON JOURNALISM. In his speech at Milwaukee during his recent western tour, ex-President Roosevelt devoted himself largely to. the subject of journa.ism. Among other things he said: “If a newspaper man is neutral the performance of his work does neither good nor evil, but if he insists upon being neutral on all moral questions he is simply filling a position about which you cannot say much in the way of blame and not much in the way of praise. He must have high idealsand he mustbe able to get those ideals adopted by a reasonable pro- portion of his fellows if his' profes- sion is to rank as high as it ought to, *'A newspaper should tell the truth, and the whole truth, and should care- fully refrain from scandalizing the character of good men, although it should be fearless in exposing cor- ruption wherever it might be found. In a public like this it is essential that the people should know the character of their public servants.” QUICK ACTION ONLY FAIR. If it is true that Cass Lake saloon- keepers have been paying bribes to an agent of the government for the privilege of doing business, the pub- lic hasa right to have the charges passed upon at the earliest moment and the offenders punished. Further more, it is only fair to the government agents who are free from taint that it be made known just who the guilty 'person-is. It is characteristic of the government to delay action because of the endless red tape which usually has to be - un- || wound before final -action-‘can: be ! taken, Delay in such a case as this would be deplorable from every standpoint. | The Pioneer is able to say-that there have been affidavits presented by the saloon men of Cass Lake making charges that involve peni- tentiary offenses. - It is also under- stood that the agents.at work here are doing all they can to get the evidence into shaplevior quick action, the fear of delay lying with the de- iust at this time will not enhance the chances of Cass Lake to retain her saloons. If the saloonkeepers kept their doors open by trickery and bribes, they can expect, or:at least are entitled to, but little favor- able consideration at the 'bands of THE DIETZ DISGRACE. The spectacle of a man clothed with the authority of a sheriff lying jump out in front of a wagonload of youngsters and:sending a:‘broad- side of bullets at them, causing & in wait with a dozen deputies to the government. Incidentally, there is a statute in Minnesota which makes it.a crime to offer a bribe and the penalty, in probably fatal wound to a girl, is not a very good advertisement - for Bar- ron county, Wisconsin.

Thecdore Roosevelt says: “No Investment on earth How different is this from his op- ponent who, ic a clumsy effort after votes, defies the overwhelming senti- ment of his party against county op- tion and in the face of the most bit- ter opposition to such a plank by the Democratic state convention, dele- gates to himself the right to an- nounce an issue not in keeping with his party, entirely inharmonious with its workings, and then proceed to wage a campaign on his own doctor- ed up ideas of what] the democrati : party ought to stand for. And yet on the one issue.which the opponent to Governor Eberhart hopés to win he inis no better position to make promises than our present executive. “‘He can signa county option bill, if one is passed, -and he becomes governor,” says Mr. Eber- hart, “and that is just what I would do, and he can.do no more, although he can promise more.” Particularly pleasing to northern Minnesota [is Governor * Eberhart’s declaration in *favor of ‘a fair and just reapportionment of the state.

We can best help you answer it. = It’s not the first cost that counts. An unworthy garment is the most expensive in the end. The secret of dressing well at a minimum expense lies in the care of the selection. If you select wisely and well—we have - no fear that you will pass our present offerings. And the first cost of clothes made by The House of Kuppenheimer —the kind we sell, admittedly the finest garments procurable, made specially for us _—is no.greater than that of ordinary clothes.
