Attention is called to the front page article on the Chicago conven- tion. Technically, it is an editorial but is too long to handle in this col- umn. One on the Democrats. A few days ago, Bemidji Democrats were laughing at the Republican con- vention and saying that the Demo- cratic convention would be a model for peace and harmony. Today, they have nothing to say. According to Blythe. Samuel G. Blythe, who Writes “Who’s Who” in the Saturday Even- ing Post, is one of the best political writers of today. In the June issue of McClure's, he has an article pur- porting to be a report of the Chicago and Baltimore conventions as they might have been. His article and conclusions are a real contribution to political literature. “The ‘American City.” One of the best magazines dealing with municipal problems which has yet come to the desk of the editor is the “American City,” the women’s number of which has just been re- ceived. This number of the magazine is devoted to women and Minnesota is well represented by Frances Squire Potter, formerly professor of English at the University of Minnesota, Mrs. M. M. Davidson, of Waseca, and Mrs. Lenora Austin Hamlin, of St. Paul. The June number is filled with ar- ticles suggesting practical methods of improving American cities and the women who have written for this number appear to be authorities on || their subjects. Let’s Do Something. The Minneapolis Journal says: “The Minneapolis Civil and Com- merce association’s excursion into Northern Minnesota brought genuine results. “The trip developed the fact as no previous trip out of this city has done, that there is a great unsettled |} empire up north awaiting develop- ment, a land resource of tremendous possibility that is untouched. “Four hundred bushels of potatoes to the acre is not uncommon! “Grass grows wild that will feed thousands upon thousands of cattle and support a great dairy business! “How much longer shall we let do- nothing governors fritter away the years,because they have not the ener- gy and business capacity to arouse the people to what they possess? “How much longer shall we be con- tent to let incompetent office seékers spring pee-wee issues on us to get our votes, not giving a thought to the vital interests of this great state? “Let’s have a business man for gov- ernor just one term—a man strong enough mehtally to outline and set afoot a plan for the development that || is ours for the asking. “Can’t the people of this state get together, just for one campaign on a really big man to run Minnesota, without stopping to ask whether he is for Roosevelt or Taft or La Follette: or Bryan, whether he is Democratic or Republican? “A big broad-gage man who knows something about doing business in a business way would set us going. “We could stand two years of real business talk from the governor’s of- fice without going to pieces as & com- ||| monwealth.” The Pioneer is Journal!
