Perhaps never in the history of state Democracy was the ranks of the unwashed so badly spiit up and scat- tered as in the present campaign for national and state recognition. This is especially so in' Hennepin and Ram- sey counties where.the fight for ex- ecutive control has caused the open- ing of rival headquarters and a con- sequent clash of authority. Lynch or anti-Lynch is the controlling fac- tor though it has to be admitted that the followers of Fred B. Lynch, na- tional committeeman, are pretty much in the saddle. In:Hennepin county, Fred - Wheaton, state . Democratic chairman, heads the Stalwarts, while Z. Austin commands what is known as the volunteer Democracy.

With more than one-half of the voters of the county and nearby towns as an audience and a special train from the cities carrying hundreds of boosters, Senator Nelson in a speech ‘bristling. - with truth expressed his opinion of the Democratic national administra- tion, told as Knute can only tell it, his political experience of better than a quarter of a century, and hazarded the guess that Minnesota would not be found wanting in a Republican way when the polls were heard from on November 7. His arraignment of the Wilson administration was most scathing. To use a slang remark, Senator Nelson “tore the cover off the ball.” So well did his talk and so convincing were his arguments that preparations were at once made by the Republican State Central committee for the state-wide. distri- bution- of his remarks in pamphlet form, and at the same time the na- tional committee requested a copy and announced its intention of pub- lishing the speech in many languages and giving it national distribution. Though the town selected by Senator Nelson for the firing of his broad- side is several miles from a railroad this fact had no effect on the hun- dreds who gathered to hear him. They gladly made the sacrifice in or- der to hear the veteran. While not only a general expose -of- conditions ripe for the spotlight the senator’s talk was historic in that it may be “the senator’s only- public appearance during this campaign. Close friends say that the Alexandria man may retire to private life at the close of his term which is’ two years distant. As Chairman Thornton of the Re- committee Jjorities as far as the candidates on the Republican ticket as concerned. * True, stveral hundred postmasters ‘and other federal office holders are busy in the interest of the national Democratic ticket and their activity in some quarters has been a source of concern to some of the Republican . leaders, but inyestigation fails to show that any real harm has been done. Mr. Thornton is confident that the national ticket will poll the usual Republican majority and, as to the state Republican ticket, indications are that the majorities will be well up in five figures. F. B. Kellogg, Re- publican candidate for United States senator, and Thos. Frankson, can- didate for lieutenant governor, who has been out on the stump since the campaign opened have had good meetings. Their chief interest is in adding to the Republican majority, and the reports they bring to the state headquarters are decidedly en- couraging. The election of the two by handsome majorities is conceded by the enemy. Governor Burnquist, following the death of his predecessor, Winfield Scott Hammond, announced his in- tention of attending strictly to his official duties has informed the Re- publican State Central committee that he will be available for speaking duty at an early.-date. He will likely open his campaign in a speech at Brain- erd. The number of his talks will probably be limited. Unlike some of This predecessors, Governor Burnquist has never taken kindly to the idea of being the prize feature at the nu- merous gatherings which the average executive is generally burdened with, in the shape of invitations to talk, and has declined most of them. His intention of discouraging such was | made known by Governor Burnquist upon taking up the burdens of his of- fice and as a result of his appear- ances on the rostrum has been few and then only when the importance of the occasion warrants it. - He has always insisted that his official work should have the big end of his at- tention. Governor Burnquist is an eloguent speaker and the announce: af 11 L 8e launched Saturday | - when United States Senator Nelson following in charge of the progres- sive element. The only thing the several factions seem to be agreed upon is the hopelessness of the state ticket, The country press,generally is:con- gratulating Governor Burnquist on his.masterly handling of the miners’ strike on the Iron Range and the prompt suppression of what at first tended to possible disorder.and conse- quent bloodshed. In vigorous Jan- guage he gave the county authori- ties to understand that they would be -held strictly accountable for the enforcement of the laws having.to do with peace and order and his com- mands were obeyed. - Says the Wi- nona . Republican Herald: “Governor Burnquist-is to be con- energetic manner in which he has handled the I. W. W. disorders on the ‘Iron Range. _ o . “The 1. W.
