Immediately following the decision of Judge Otis in the rate cases, Gov. Eberhart expressed himself in the fol- lowing words: “If the decision of the master In chancery should be sustained it would be unfortunate, both to the state and the railroads. It would leave the con- trol of the railways neither in the hands of the state nor of the interstate commerce commission. “The control which the state has had in the past has been beneficial because under it the 2-cent fare has been established and the passes and rebates have been abolished. Fears No Passenger Rate Change. “Inasmuch as the earnings of the railway companies have increased under the 2-cent fare we have no rea- son to believe that an effort will be made to re-establish the 3-cent fare. If, however, a move should be made in this direction by the railroads I shall assert all the power reposed in me as governor to prevent such action. In such event I shall see to it that the railroad corporations have all the protection afforded them under the law, but no more. “Many eminent railroad men favor| the control which is now in the state and I believe that the people have no apprehension that their wishes will| be thwarted by the railroads. The state is ably represented by former Atty. Gen. E. T. Young and the rights of the state will be fully protected in the courts.” There was no waiting to see what the sentiment of the interests might be in the matter. He simply viewed the situation from the standpoint of right and justice and without the least hesitation anrounced what would be the position taken by the state’s chief executive, and to what extent he would go to defend the people's rights. It is a safe proposition for the people to keep such men at the head of state affairs. CAMPAIGN COMMENT. Governor Eberhart will do all he can to secure legislation changing the present primary election law. He holds it is inadequate as it does not secure | party nomination within the party. In proof of this he calls attention to “flagrant violations of the law at the recent election.” The Governor has not decided as to the exact nature of the suggestions he is to make to the legislature if re- elected, but he has geveral plans un- der consideration.—St. Paul Dispatch, | Sept. 26. The rank and file of the democratic party are getting tired_of the boss rule methods of Mr. Day and the kitchen cabinet, and are about ready to insurge and their insurgency wili mean advantage to the present gover- nor.—Windom Reporter. Frankie Day is happy. His party has given him a candidate for gover- nor who is not a scandinavian.—Ano- ka Union. WHAT CONSERVATION MEANS. Have you as a voter really consid- ered what the present conservation movement would have meant to this state had it been conceived thirty years ago? Do you realize that had Minnesota had a governor like Gov. Eberhart, with his advanced ideas on the conservation of the state’s natural resources, the farmer would not to- day have to pay the freight on lum- ber from the western coast with which to build his house, barn, gran- ary and other farm buildings? Had Mr. Eberhart been governor then there would at this time be millions of dollars worth of Minnesota pine still standing in the northern wilds ready i to be converted into useful material, instead of having been otherwise care- lessly frittered away. Had we had a governor like Mr. Eberhart thirty years ago, the state’s { mineral deposits would have been safe- guarded in sudh a manner that the revenue therefrom would make it pos- itively unnecessary to levy a -cent of direct tax for revenue to sustain the state government. Had Mr. Eberhart been governor at that time to advocate his ideas, the state would now have a thorough sys- tem of drainage, and our water courses would be perfectly conserved. His ideas advanced thirty years ago would have put to practical use the millions of dollars worth of wasted labor that has been wasted in hap- hazzard road construction, and this state would today be enjoying the best system of highways known to the western hemisphere. Think of the polls. GOVERNOR EBERHART AT MANKATO. Governor Eberbart, opening his campaign for re-election at Mankato last night, gave a frank and convine- ing statemnt of his own attitude oh various State issues, and followed it with an account of his own steward- ship and that of his Republican as- sociates in office at the Capitol. Tak- ipg his stand on the strong Republi- can platform adopted by the State Convention—a platform, by the way, which is such a model of excellence as to have been in many respects adopt- emi dji Manufacturers, Wholesalers and Jobbers The Following Firms Are . haroughiy Reliable and Orders Sent to Them Will Be Promptly Filled at Lowest Prices The Crookston Lumber Co.

The Republican pledges are definite and clear, and they are reiterated by Governor Eber- hart with expository details. In the matter of county option the Governor reiterates his pledge to sign any bill of that nature the Legislature passes, More he cannot do. Nor can his opponent do more. The question Is purely legislative. If the voters of Minnesota want a county option law, they can get it by electing a county option Legislature—and in no other way. A recommendgtion of a Demo- cratic Governor to a Republican Legis- lature to adopt county option, such as is involved in Mr. Gray’s promise, would be about as effective as bom- barding the sky to get rain. The Re- publican party has given Minnesota all the temperance legislation so far passed, and the Democratic party has inwariably opposed such laws. Mr. Gray’s present attitude is in direct opposition to that of practically all of the Democratic candidates for the Legislature. When Mr. Gray can bring to county option the votes of Demo- cratic Legislators, he will be doing some real service to that cause. His present thunderings are futile. In the matter of reapportionment, Governor Eberhart gets in a telling blow when he shows that the reappor- tionment bill in the last Legislature was really defeated by the votes of eighteen Democratic Senators. If they had voted for the bill, the present glaring injustice would have been largely corrected. As for the primary law, the Gover- nor recognizes its two points of great- est weakness—the prohibitive cost of candidacies for poor men, and the in- trusion of voters of one party in the affairs of the other~—and reiterates the plank of the Republican platform de- manding curative legislation. In such important matters as con- servation of State resources, the build- ing of good roads, the passage of ef- fective labor legislation, the teaching of agriculture, industrial arts and do- mestic economy in the schools, and the fostering of immigration, Governor Eberhart takes advanced ground. He commends the one-mill road tax am- endment to the Constitution. Mean- while he proposes that the full one- fourth mill now authorized be levied, and what is quite as important, that the powers of the State Highway Com- mission be increased, so that road construction throughout the State may be properly supervised and improved. As for railroad matters, the Gover- nor stands squarely on the Republican plank, demanding that Nation and State, each within its own jurisdiction, see that fair rates are maintained and no discrimination practiced. He pleges himself to guard the interests of the people in the pending rate cases. In short, Governor Eberhart shows himself ap enlightened Executive, watchful of the important interests en- trusted to him and eager to give the best that is in him to the service of the people.—Minneapolis Journal, Oct. 5. 1910. She Didn't Mind. A girl with a Gibson face and a green feather in her hat boarded a Chestout street car the other after- noon. She carried something in a pa per sack under her arm. The car was crowded with passengers. and no one offered to rise The girl looked worried, but set her lips and grabbed at a strap. Just then the car lurched. the girl made a wild effort to keep on her feet and threw her bundle straight in a large man’s lap. There was a peculiar grinding sound in the sack, and then something seeped out that looked suspiciously like the yellow of an egg. “What in rhe thunder is this stuff?” he started to say. when she sweetly remarked as she clung to the strap: “Oh, never mind making apologies. I can get another dozen of eggs at our grocery.” The conductor removed the sack of eggs, and the map looked so savage that no one dared laugh.—Louisville Times. A Weekly Birthday. Dr. Marks, who for many years was head of St. .John's college, Rangoon, which the young Burmese princes at tended, once granted a day’s holiday because it was Queen Victoria's birth- day. The king asked Dr. Marks what he meant by it. On hearing the ex- planation he said graciously, “That's all right, but will you give them a holi- day on my birthday?" Dr. Marks said he certainly would if his majesty would inform him what was the day on which the world was blessed by his birth. “According to Burmese national cus- tom;" said the king, “my birthday is every Tuesday!” —— The Pepper Vine. The most common and widely used of all spicés is pepper. It is & native of the East Indies, but is now culti- vated in various parts of the tropical belt of this hemisphere. The plant is a climber and’ has a smooth stem sometimes twelve feet long. The fruit is about the size of a pea and when ripé is of a bright red color. In culti- _vation' the plant is supported by poles. In some localities small trees are used instead of poles, for the best pepper i grown in a certain degree of shade. The Gentle Art. #1 adore intelligence!” she cried. “So do 1" said he. *“All the same, though, beauty and intellect never go together.” ; “And’do,you think me intellectual?” she faltered, *“No,” he confessed frankly. With a.faint blush she murmured, "Flntterer"'—l.os Angeles Examiner. Try Rice This Way Rice should be served dry, steaming hot, pot mushy, and every grain should be separate 1 cup Head Rice, well washed 3 cups Boiling Water Scant teaspoon Salt A salt spoon of Lard Wash Rice through at least six waters, or until the cloudmess is all removed. Bring to the boiling point three brimful cups of water, ®dd the salt and the tiny bit of lard. When water is boiling briskly, add the rice from which water has been drained, The boiling process will be interrupted for a few minutes, but counting from the time it starts to hoil again, it will take about fifteen minuies for the rice to fully absorb the water. During this time keep the cover on, but slightly pushed to one side. At the end of fifteen minutes the grains should be soft, not the least gritty and the water absorbed. Remove the cover and at the same time let dry out for five minutes. If cooking on a gas stove, at the end of five minutes lower gas and let the drying-out process continue for twenty to thirty minutes longer. If cooking on a wood or coke stove, at the end of five minutes place cooked rice on back of stove or in oven to dry out Best Rice only 10 cents a pound Roe & Markusen The Quality Grocers Phone 206 Phone 207 Gash Or Easy Payments Will Buy a Stove at our Store Then too there’s a downright satisfaction, say nothing of warmth and comfort, in havmg a heater that will burn apny kind of fuel with economy and success.
