G. E. CARSON. E. H. DENU_ HAROLD J. DANE, Editor. Where the Pioneer Stands. Elsewhere in this issue will be found a statement indicating where the Pioneer stands in reference to the contests which will come before the voters in the primary tomorrow. The Pioneer stands for progresisve men all the way through. The Pioneer does not believe for one moment that all the men in its opinion worthy of nomination will be nominated, and calls'the attention of its readers that it is deserting no candidate at the last minute.’ The Pioneer does not recommend one man for many weeks and then just before election run a four page supplement booming his bitterest rival. This is a year of surprises and no one can tell which way the nomina- tions will go. The-second choice fea- ture is the one which will enable the people to make their own ballot and voters are urged to-indicate a second choice in every possible instance. The Pioneer has gone to some pains to distribute blanks whereby election returns will be sent in from every township in the county and it will print these results as fast as they are received.. Every voter is urged to read all of the election matter to be found un- der headings on front page. Call “30.” For so long that it was a tradition when the oldest printer today was learning the business the custom of putting “30” at the end of the last bit of copy for the edition of a daily paper has been followed. that the day’s work is done; that it is finished. “Call 30" is used by tele- graph operators who handle press matter and when the last bit of copy has been sent over the wires, the operator calls “30,” closes the key and goes home. Ernest A. Anderson has been given “30.” Just when he was about to reach his majority he received the call and was taken home to Father. The words of Paul that “there is but a step between me and death” are brought to mind by his death. In an hour of sorrow, words are inade- quate but Ernest Anderson’s life will never be forgotten by his trignd& 1t .means Consistent Inconsistency. Governor Eberhart’s latest apepal for votes came Saturday when he had a notice sent to the German- American Alliance stating that a vote for one of the opposition candidates meant a vote against personal. privi- lege. At the same time, he was en- listing the aid of certain church peo- ple by making them believe that the other candidates were dominated by the breweries. Eberhart is always consistent in his inconsistency. Express a Second Choice. . Tomorrow will be the first time in the history of Minnesota that all of the voters will have a chance to ex- press a choice as to what men should go on the general election ballots. Voters should not fail to register a second choice vote for otherwise, if their first choice is low man, they will have no voice in the naming of the nominee. X THIS DATE IN HISTORY .
