Quane of St. Peter who was a candidate for the democratic nomination for governor -of Minnesota, after hearing Dr. Shipstead, the Townley candidate, speak the other day, announced that he would support Mr. Preus, the repub- lican candidate, because he realized that the fight is between ‘Preus and Shipstead, and he felt that the duty of x‘es;sting the Townley attempt to get control of the powers of. the state gov- ernmen is vastly more important than any partisan, considera- ‘tion. So, though a lifelong democrat and an ardent supporter of Governor Cox, he is working for the election of Mr; Preus. Democratic state headquarters succumbed to the tempta- tion to be irritated by this utterance, and has issued a statement reproaching Major Quane for being unfaxthfgl to the party. - If Major Quane by this step is being unfmtl;ful to his party, he is being faithful to his conscience and to his gonceptlon of his duty as a citizen, and these are cpnmde;‘at:ons that are infinitely higher than any party or partisanship. Fie The fight manifestly IS between Mr. Preus, !:he republican candidate, and Dr. Shipstead, the Townley candidate. One qf them will be elected. Larry Hodgson, the democratic candi- .date, is one of the most lovable souls that ever scattered sun- shine on this earth, and if he could be elected he would mak_e a good governor, and would serve the people well with all his heart and soul. But he can’t be elected. If he gets enough votes from good citizens who vote for party reasons, he may give Townley’s man the victory; and it is more lmpo.rtant that that be prevented than that a democrat or republican shall occupy the governor’s office. Because he feels that strongly,*and because he knows t}.la.t believing it he would be putting partisanship above good citi- * zenship if he failed to act accordingly, Major Quane has thrown “his support fo Mr. Preus, as he had a right to do, and as thou- .'gands of others of the same mind will do. He does not deserve i f L condemnation for it, but praise for his courage in_standing by his conscience even when to do so means subordinating partisan- ship for the time being.—Duluth Herald. Gt “BIG BUSINESS” IN NEWSPAPERDOM. 4 Sunday, October 17, was a .trying one to every country publisher who saw a copy of a certain great Chicago Sunday paper of that date. 1" he edition of the paper in question on that day consisted ‘of one hundred and thirty-eight pages, and the circulation for that edition is.presumed to be on a par with that of other ' 'Sundays—about four hundred thousand copies; perhaps more. i\ private citizen of the United States.” is not yet one the prohibited list. 3 Fifty-five /million two hundred thousand pages of paper used up in one day. t A And this is but one Sunday edition of one daily paper out f all of the United States! ) No wonder the small city daily and the country weekly is paying five times the price he paid for print paper before the war, and experiences great difficulty in securing it even at that prohibitive price! . The Lord made these publishers for some purpose, no doubt, even though they be nothing mere than Lord’s Day hogs. 0 Soon, now, the pre-election agony will be over. But then, “begosh, comes the rejoicing and the weeping. We just can’t get from under. b —o0 There is still a little joy left to mankind. The oyster “stew” OVERHEARD BY EXCHANGE EDITOR " e e ettt SOME CLIMATE. | Tuesday five inches of snow fell in Arizona. The same day Morris Willett of Baudette gathered enough strawberries from his garden to provide a meal. The only difference between Minnesota and California is that an earthquake doesn’t come along and fracture our scenery every once in a while.—Baudette Region. A vote for Preus is a vote favoring the development of co-operation as a means of solving the farm marketing problems. A “ote for Shipstead s a vote.in favor of state ownership as means of solving the problem. Co-operation is working out satisfactory while state ownership is yet in the experimental stages and requires'the invesSment of millions of dollars.

Anything that will increase the amount of “political literature from local candidates these days will meet a general and unanimous rejection from the people.—St. Paul Eilpltch. i The little miss with the painted lips and rouged cheeks accomplishes ‘her - one aim—to attract. attention. She certainly does—the uncompli- mentary kind. As a former editor of the Transcript once said: “A bed slat ight effect a cure.”—Little Falls Transcript. ' ‘ One lady at a wash tub voiced her perplexities over the back fence to other lady at another wash tub, as follows: “I don’t like Harding because he’s for war, and I don’t like Cox because he’s for booze—so what you n’er do?”—St. Cloud Daily Times. President Wilson refers to Senator Harding in a letter to him as “a i e A seat in the United States senate no kind of an office at all, the president has indicated heretofore.—St. ul Pioneer Press.

D., Oct. 26.—The state election in South Dakota is a three cornered affair this year—Republi- cans, Democrats and Non-Partisans. In ‘the race for U. S. Senatorship, iwo independents break the three cornered rule. Gov. Peter J. Norbeck, occupied the head of the first column on the ballot as ‘the mominee of the republi- an party for U. S. senator. He is consjdered a “regular” republican. R. O. Richards, author of the Richard primary law in South Dakota, is op- posing him as independent having failed in' the republican primary contests. U. 8. G. Cherry of Sioux Falls, is the democratic candidate for senator. Tom Ayers is the Nonpartisan léague nominee and L. J. Manbeck, of Ar- mour is the second Independent on the ticket. il Perhaps the biggest fight so far as state politics is concerned evolves around the governor’s chair. H..Mc- Master of Yankton is the republican nominee. W. W. Howes, of Wolsey, the Democratic and M. P. Bates of Letcher, the Nonpartisan. Each party has a nominee for every other state office, including Lieutenant governor, secretary of state, state auditor, state treasurer, attorney general, superintendent of public instruction, commissioner of schools, and public lands, and com- missioners from the second and third districts to the railroad commission. Independents as well as republi- cans, democrats, K and nonpartisan leaguers have a list of presidential electors, each party listing five.

The Russians are_par- ticularly desirous of learning all they can of American institutions. “Let the American government,” suggests a Philadelphia Russian, ‘“‘or- ganize special houses for the wor men, where educational motion pic- tures would be shown to them. Let the immigrants see America in pi tures; let him heal ress. Show him the American farms, cities, mines and forests, and many other things that will help the immigra to see and understand America. Pu! lish, in the Russian language, pamph- lets on the history and geography of America, and you will see that the immigrant. would like America bet- ter after studying her.” “It is not enough to have evening = = schools, where the teachers speak only English,” writes another Rus- stan, who has’ had difficulty with the existing éducational méthods of instruction. *“We read a word or learn it without knowing what.it means and what it is used for; so it is dead to use, though it might be a word that we.need very much. “I think that every country bene- fits from clever and educated inhabi- tants. That is why it js time to change America’s attitude toward the immigrants—to help them to or- ganize their homes here, and to fa- miliarize them with the language, I think that many Russians would like to remain here forever, and to un- derstand the Americans, instead of having misunderstandings, quarrels and cursing going on. Now all the Americans think all the. Rugsians are Bolsheviki and interested only in politics; but there are many of us who are of a different type.” THE PIONEER WANT ADS BRING RESULTS Celds,/ Coughs Laxative—No Opiate in Hill’s. ~— Neglected Colds are Dangerous .
