A great big man with lots of energy and ‘independence who is not a friend of Ed Smith’s. Must be more cap- able and of more real executive and administrative calibre than any one who has recently held the place. To such a man ‘the people of Minnesota offer a very good job and one perfectly good governer’s staff containing a mis- cellaneous assortment of colonels and majors with a general or two thrown in. Murphys, Moriaritys, Cal- lahans and O’briens save stamps. Ap- plications from Olsons will receive first consideration. Petersons, John- sons and Ericksons carefully consider- ed. Must be able to get along with the brewing companies and the steel cor- porations and create the impression that they are fighting to beat the band among themselves. Such a per; som, if proficient at passing the pie, may hold the place from one to three terms before he will be designated a ‘dub and reviled from Dan to Bershe- ba and from Austin to Warroad as the biggest grafter who ever lived in St. Paul, or until the people here learn that picking out a governor is a matter that ought to be gone about. carefully that it doesn’t make much difference whether he is a Democrat, a Repub- lican or anything else so long-as he is honest and capable. And un- til -they learn also that every man who makes a noise like one . who wants to be governor may have an excellent whistle but a wretched tune.—Virginia Enterprise. —_—— An Opportunity Advertising in the home paper is an opportunity—an opportunity to do business by means of suggestion, the greatest ‘human power today. Nearly all of odur acts are the result of suggestion, and there’s no other way in which you can reach 'so many people for so small an investment as through the home paper. The farmer with only an occasional need of ad- vertising and the merchant with goods to sell every day who will di- g}zst these thoughts and act upon them may wear diamonds.—Aitkin Republican. . e Aid To Society Doctor Dumas is out of the Stiil- ‘water penitentiary under parole, af- ter serving fourteen months of a five year sentence, and there has been much unfavorable comment, because there is many another good fellow in there who was less a menace to society and who is more deserving of his freedom. Dumas was a practicing physician, president of the village of Cass Lake, a society leader and an alll-around rattling good fellow. That was one side of him. The other Wwas that he was the leader of a gang of thieves that burned houses for the insurance, 'robbed postoffices, and held a contempt for the law in gen- eral. If Dumas will hereafter allow the good side of him to control, his release will not have been a mistak=, because there is much in him that is useful to society. —Ore. Just In Time.
