AR kS | * HERHEE KRR H KKK KX ¢Hi§ PAPER REPRESENTED FOR FOREIGN GENERAL OFFICES @®NEW YORK AND CHICAGO “PANCHES IN ALL THF PRINCIPAL CITIES DITCH NUMBER 25. J. L. George, county auditor, has postponed the awerding of contracts for Judicial Ditch No. 25 for ten days until he carefully investigates several charges made in regard to the ditch. Those who oppose this ditch will now have an opportunity to take legal steps to stop the con- struction of the ditch. The county auditor is compelled under the law to make contract award if the bids are satisfactory. If no action is ta- ken by those who oppose the ditch at this time, they should not blame the county officials, but should hold “their peace forever.” THE ELECTION AS GOOD AS OVER In the last days of the campaign, the Democratic managers have been compelled to adopt @ truly remark- able shift in order to keep their down- hill fight alive. They have practic- ally abandoned hope of carrying New York, and devoted superhuman ef- fort to the effort to create belief that they are going to elect Wilson by reason of great gains in the middle and far West. This is always a sign that the managers see the end of their hopes. The thing that is happening, right now, in the 1916 campaign, marked the disruption of Democratic hopes in 1896, in 1900, in 1904 and in 1908. The fact is that presidents are not elected who do not carry New York. Some presidents have been elected who, if the result in New York alone had been reversed, would still have pulled through. New York is a barometer quite as often as it is a determining weight in the scale. The question may be asked, why should the Democrats, about this stage of .a losing campaign, throw up the New York sponge and put forth their fantastic claims about compensating gains in other parts of the country, than they realize? The answer is perfectly simple to the political experts? Of all the states that are tradition- ary doubtful, New York is the one in which judgment of results may be most accurately formed in advance. It is highly organized; its political factions are definite, big and effec- tive. It is full of sharps on politics, who cannot be fooled. It is under very much closer and more independ- ent observation than any other state in the union, and the conclusions of these observers get more publicity, all over the country, than any other set of political forecasts, simply be- cause the state’s tremendous and de- served repute for political potential- ity compels it. No campaign management nowa- days expects to fool the people of New York, in the last ten days, about tendencies in their state. Refusing of course to admit defeat, they yet realize that they will mislead few people; and so it has come to be a regular phenomenom, in the conclud- ing fortnight of a campaign, for the managers of the losing party sud- denly to put forth astounding claims of a political earthquake somewhere else that is going to sweep the coun- try to them, no matter what New York does.

The side that reorganizes its statistics in the last days in order to show that it will win without New York, is merely admitting what by that time is universal ~knowledge, that New York is lost.

A, Burnquist, * x Governor of Minnesota x KKK K KKK KKKK KK KKK In order to secure justice for Am- erican citizens everywhere, regard- * order for America to give to all na- tions of the world that justice to which they are entitled and to re- ceive from them that recognition, re- spect and honor which the American republic deserves, we want as presi- dent a statesman who has shown him- self by his attitude in public life, to be a fair minded executive, a just jurist, a strong and great personality of independence, stability and back- bone—Charles Evan Hughes. His record in behalf of labor legis- lation, while governor of New York, was such that the recognized organ of the State Federation of Labor said of him: “Now that Governor Hughes has retired from politics and as- cended to a place on the highest ° judicial tribunal in the world, the fact can be acknowledged, without hurting anybody’s poli- tical corns, that he was the greatest friend of labor laws that ever occupied the governor's chair at Aloany. During his two terms he has signed fifty-six la- bor laws, including among them the best labor laws ever enacted in thiy cw any other state.” Mr. Hughes’ stand for agriculture is made evident by his attitude to- ward agricultural education when he ‘was governor, by his favoring an ef- fective rural credit law and by his pledge that the agricultural inter- ests will be promoted by every prac- ticable means. Nothing can be more absurd than to say that if Mr. Hughes is elected president he will strive to get us in- to a war. In the first place no presi- dent has a right to declare war or to claim credit for keeping us out of war. The matter is in the hands of congress, not with the president. In the second place, Mr. Hughes stands for the organization of peace. Read his acceptance speech and you will find that, although he believes in the nation’s preparedness, he does not believe in that militarism which in Europe has oppressed the taxpayer and created a false patriotism by teaching nations to regard each other as foes instead of friends. In Mr. Hughes we find a practical statesman, who is in favor of inter- national peace and who will un- doubtedly put forth every effort pos- sible in a practical manner to bring about a time when nations shall no longer be permitted to engage in war- fare and when all men shall be al- lowed to pursue their many different peaceful vocations “without a thought of interruption by the rav- ages of war and be enabled peace- fully to take possession of land and | water and air and all the forces to be found in them and make them minister to human life.” The record of Mr. Hughes, before he was governor of New York, in the investigation of the New York Gas company, resulting in reduced rates; in the investigation of the in- surance cases, resulting in beneficial legislation, and his fearlessness, judgment and fairness after he be- came governor, make him a candidate in whom we can have absolute con- fidence because, by his record, we are led to believe that, under all eir- cumstances, he will do what he thinks and knows to be right. If it is proper to reward fidelity to the interests of the public, to reward a man who is not afraid to tell the truth, and to reward an official who has been obedient to the dictates of — 2D RO QORI O HIDES HIDES I am In the market for hides and furs.

Minneapolis, Minn., Oct. 28.—Min- nesota football team today played its first conference game. Iowa was the opponent. The day was clear but crisp, just right for the players, but spectators did fantastic dances to keep warm. The Gophers were the first on the field, followed shortly after by the Iowa bunch. From all appearances the Gophers, after finishing Iowa, will know they have been through a regular football game. The Iowa line is about the same weight as the Go- phers and the backfield appears fast. Harold Hanson, out the first part SAN FELIGE GIGARS FIVE CENTS STRAIGHT AND WORTH IT! Owing to the greatly increased cost of quality in tobaccos, in fact every- thing pertaining to high grade ci- gars, the makers of the San Felice cigar, The Deisel-Wemmer Company, have advanced the selling price to the Jobbers and Dealers, and hence- forth this cigar will positively be sold to the consumer for 5 cents straight instead of six for a quarter as previously. The SAN FELICE is national in its SCOPE and. CHARACTER, having justly attained this eminence through its unexcelled evcellence. To main- tain this unequaled standard of qua- lity, the advance in question is ab- solutely -unavoidable.
