Every “thing is served up with a view to se- lection. Help yourself to what you want and do not condemn the entire spread because the pickles and onious may be included. If you do not relish them, somebody may nd them pal- atable. Be generous and broad enough to select gracefully such read- ing matter from a paper as will be agreeable to your mental taste. You, as an individual, are not.compelled We do not all think alike on every subject, and it is a good thing, as it makes more variety, and variety is the spice of existence. to swallow everything. The Amendments. Reports from St. Paul where the ‘official election returns. are being slowly received indicate that the Dunn amendment and the amend- ment providing for an increase in the railroad gross earnings tax will Returns on the other amendments are not enough complete be carried. to allow a forecast. Fifty-three counties have reported to date and the total vote is 177,227 making a majority of 88,614. The Tailroad amendment received 98,763 votes or over 10,000 more than a ma- Jority. It is believed that this in- crease in taxation will bring the state about $1,000,000 a year in added revenue. In Hennepin county the vote was light but returns from the country districts indicate that more attention was paid to the amend- ments than in the cities. Is Worth Real Money. The following dispatch from Thief River Falls tells how the “Univers- ity Soo Special” is.being received in the towns it is visiting. In Bemidji the train drew a good crowd but not as large as those which had turned| out in other towns. “Real farmers, men who have farm- ed all their lives, came five, ten.' twenty miles and even further. “They came on business and in a serious frame of mind. There were few smiles and little laughter. “They crowded the lecture cars and heard men trained to the job suggest how they might make their farms better paying businesses. “When the time came to ask ques- tions they asked pointed questions and business-man questions. “Not a man all day had any side remarks to make about “pencil farm- ers”—the skepticism toward the col- lege expert, which the agricultural educators have in the past found their hardest foe, seems to be gone. “Men who have farmed sixty years pushed their bearded faces between the shoulders of stalwart grandsons and demanded figures on the profit in raising corn fodder for cattle— and this on the “Wheat Line” in Northern Minnesota! “A thousand farmers are talking new ideas and better business in these towns today. “Is this worth money to you ’ a bystander asked a man in a sheep- skin-lined coat as the train pulled out of Viking today. £ ’Wel}, of course, I'm a mighty small farmer.”” “s it worth $5 to you?’” “‘Say, when I get to following up some of them points it sure will be worth a lot more than that.”” “The Warren Commercial club en- tertained the educational train party in elaborate fashion. “The train will be in Orleans, Lan- caster and Bronson, on the Winnipeg line of the Soo, Thursday.” NORTH COUNTRY IS FOOTBALL CRAZY (Continued from mnrst page). reports Wisconsin has a very strong, fast team, playing straight football for the most part, and depending more upon its strength and power than upon its polish or the variety or deceptive quality of its attack. Op- posed to this will be a more varied attack by Minnesota and the forma- tion plays for which the Gopher coach is famous for devising. Had Tollefson been allowed to remain on the team the rooters are of an opin- ion that Minnesota would have emerged victorious by a decisive score Saturday. His disqualification in midseason and the necessity of breaking in an almost new quarter- back has hindered Minnesota to some extent, but from the inside of North- rop field comes word that Hayward has been progressing in a very satis- factory manner. Saturday though will tell that story better than train- ing camp gossip filtered through fra- ternity houses and casual visitors. If all that has been said of Wis-; consin is true then the Badgers should win Saturday by at least twen- ty-five points. Juneau has had a col- lection of splendid veterans to start work with and they have justified much that has been said of them in their preliminary games. Their splen- did showing though may have been based more upon the weakness of their opponents rather than their own abilities. A strong team always looks much stronger than it really is when romping through a straw team.l No one, though, would be so foolish as to say that Wisconsin is not pos- sessing the best team-of recent years this season, even when subjecting its merits to the highest possible rate of discount. The Minnesota team though is not one of weaklings. It is still green beyond any question, but it is made up of an unusually hard fighting lot of players and followers of the ma- roon and gold believe that Wiscon- sin will meet its first real test of the year when it lines up against Minne- sota, Most of the Minnesota players have been through some rather stiff fights this year and there should be little danger of stage fright or a total absence of overconfidence. In a measure Minnesota has all to win and nothing to lose this season in the Wisconsin game, and the fight will probably be contested on that basis. The rooters are sure to be well satisfied no matter how the final score may turn if it is a hard-fought game, clean and played under the commonly accepted rules of good sportsmanship. There are several old | scores to be settled with those Madi- son folks and the Gophers have all the necessary incentive to go in and fight at top pitch from start to finish. No-matter who wins it is going to be the greatest game playéd in the West this year :if the Wisconsin , team grades-sixty per cent of the.advance estimates. - . = President G. E. Vincent, Dr. H. L. Williams, Professors E. G. Cheyney, E. M Freeman and Captalin Paul To- bin were the headliners at a mass meeting held in the chapel of the college or agriculture at moon Wed- nesday. The gathering was arranged to inspire enthusiasm for the game Saturday and from the volume of noise that resulted it seemed.as though the conclave was not in vain. Dr. Vincent told the crowd, which taxed the auditorium to its utmost, that Minnesota would win a big viec- tory, no matter how the tide of bat- tle 4utned Saturday. He said the team was a credit to the University and the whole state and deserved the support of all students. According to the president, Dr. Williams. has said that the eleven is-the best inlyom. the history ‘of the school as spirit and unselfishness goes. Dr. Williams refused to make any prediction regarding the game but took occasion to compliment the Agricultural College for its part in building the team. The coach then L lauded the work of Tobin, Hayward, | prm Aldworth and - Robertson, the aggie members of the squad. Tobin, like his coach, refused to prognosticate, but said the Gophers would do their best to make a hearty meal on Badg- er meat. TJONMNY | 5ENY AWAY AND GOT THIS BEAUTIF Po® S LED FORYOUR BIRTHPAY, po You LKE 1Y GOVERNORS ARE CHANGED (Continued from first page). Montana, will be succeeded by Sam- uel V. Stewart, also a Democrat. John H. Morehead of Falls City headed the Democratic ticket in Ne- braska and will succeed Chester H. Aldrich, Republican, in the governor- ship next January. No gubernatorial candidate in New Hampshire obtained the neces- sary plurality and in consequence the choice of the governor devolves upon the legislature. The Republic- ans will have control of that body and will elect Franklin Wercester to succeed Governor Bass. William Sulzer, who is to succeed Governor Dix, of New York, has long been prominent in Democratic ecir- cles. He is a former speaker of the New York general assembly and has a record of eighteen years’ service in congress. Locke Craig, elected to succeed Governor Kitchin of North Carolina, is one of the noted lawyers of his state. Louis B. Hanna, Republican, who is to become governor of North Da- Kota in succession to Joiin Burke, Democrat, has been a representative in congress since 1909. Another congressman elevated to the governorship of his state is James H. Cox, Democrat, who has been named governor of Ohio in suc- cession.to Governor Harmon. Frank M. Byrne, Republican, elect- ed to -succeed Governor Vessey, of South Dakota, is at preseut lieuten- ant governor of that state. Ernest Lister, a leader in Demo- cratic politics in Tacoma, will suc- ceed H. E. Hay, Republican, as gov- ernor of the state of Washington. The election of Dr. H. D. Hatfield as governor of West Virginia in suc- cession to William E. Glasscock was one of the surprises of the November battle of the ballots. Dr. Hatfield is a friend of President Taft, though he, Aey PoP ran on a Republican Progressive SHE'S BUSTED| ticket. He is a nephew of “Cap” L6OK OLT!
