His record as a local legislator, how- ever, is not quite so satisfactory to the people of the Fourth district. a ae Cou. G. W. Knox of Aitkin county of the Republican party ef Minnesota as set forth in the splendid platform adopted at Duluth on the l5th day of June last, is broad enough, com- prehensive énovgh and just enough for any candidate for either branch on and to be elected upon. My-interests are identical with the interests of every citizen of this dis- ‘trict. If prosperity prevails it must be shared by every individual, whether he toils ia mill’or mine, ia field or factory, in commercial busi- ness or in any of the professions. All experiences of the past will bear out this assertion, I believe. Class or Sectional prosperity cannot prevail. Legislation that is really §beneficial must benefit all alike. There ‘ure many things of great importance ahead tu be done by the next legislature, and, as has been re- peatedly urged by the press of this section, it will. require no little evergy and some: ability to accomp- lish Unat which the people will de- mand. ‘Therefore if 1 should be elected ‘to represent this senatorial district, any measnttres that I might be able to crystalize into law would be. calculat- ed, so far as my judgment would make possible, to increase the pros- perity of the whole state, and especi- ally that of Northern Minnesota.

M. Ferauson of Carlton county, for the legislature from this district, visited Grand Rapids listrict. andidate this week and put in his time mak- ing new acquaintances amoung the voters. Mr. Ferguson is a prosperous farmer of Carlton county. _He.is a gentleman who makes a very favor- able impression “upon the public’ and he will poll a very good votethfough- jut the district. He: started: out a little late in the cympaign and--may able to over take Walter. L, Case who had quite a start before Mr. Ferguson came out, but should nov be he ‘be elected the Herald-Review honestly believes he would make a mighty good man ia the legislature. es OnE of the factors—and a powerful at that—whieh is instrumental in attracting from Minnesota a large number of residents is the extensive amount of advertising which other states,,and the dominion of Canada especially, are placing with the news- papers of Minnesota. ‘These adver- set forth in glowing terms the advantages to be derived from tlem@nt upon the territory speci- and consequently hundreds of men are thereby induced to sell at a sacrifice rich farms in Minnesota and one Lisement ed, move Onto wild and unproductive plains. The man who owns a good farm in Minnesota should let’ well enough alone and not. permit land- sharks of other states, by luring ad- vertisements, to prevail upon hig to remove to a country where he is neither familiar with the’soil or the climate. Gunn’s Platform in a Nutshell. week will decide whether Daniel M. Gunn of Itasca county or Sievert Swanson of Carlton 1s to be this district. There are other candidates for that office, hut none others have a ghost of a chance to win a nomination. As between the leading candidates, the Com pass, while recognizing the integ- rity and popularity of Mr. Swanson, insists that Itasca zounty and the district will profit most by the elece tion of Dan Gunn. He is a man of broud views and a broader reputation “doing things.” The platform we published last week shows just where Gunn stands on the important issues for this section, and Dan never makes a promise which -he cannot fulfill. The following planks from his platform are sufficient reasons for his receiving the loyal support of every Republican in the district and every voter who desires the speedy development of this section: In my bumble opinion the pro- pouncement of prinetnes and abit’ NEXT the next senator from for rate question; the vigorous enforce- forming my judgment and determin- ing what action I should take in all matters acted upon by the legislature I will consult with my constituants, ask their advice and heed their ex- pressed will.—Big Fork Compass. What Cole Stands For. In his gpening address of the campaign at Kenyon, on August 27, A. L. Cole, Republican candi- date for governor, stated his posi- tion on some of the important questions. Following are a few ex- tracts from his speech: - Under conditions of modern busi- ness, the railroads are our main highways. In permitting them to be owned and operated by private capital, the state has entrusted to their owners the discharge of a function over which it should exer- cise. ectie strictest snpervision. ee OK “I believe that most of the freight rates now collected in this state are altogéther too ‘high; and-that the railroads of the state are making too much money; and I feel that it is my duty to state that, if elected, I shall do all in my power to cause them to be reduced to a point where they are.equitable, both to. carrier and shipper. eK The freight and the profit to be made are both added to the whole- some price of the goods and the sum total falls as a burden upon the consumers. The comsumer,— the man who eats and wears, is, in the last analysis, the man who pays the freight. The most numer- ous class of such consumers are the farmers. eee I believe we have not had the en- forcement of those laws which in- sure to the people their full and complete benefit. kee If elected governor, I will un- hesitatingly make suggestions to the railroad commission when the public welfare seems to demand it, and, if necessary, file a formal com- plaint. Sack : The vigorous enforcement of our laws cannot be emphasized too strongly. Not only should there be vigorous enforcement of ‘our state laws, but we should at all times en- deavoy to create public sentiment which may insure the enforcement of our federal rate statutes. eee A law should be passed prohibit- ing the giving and receiving of passes, and fixing the maximun price for the transporation of pas- sengers at two cents per mile. eee The use of private cars along these highways is not contemplat- ed, and is harmful to public wel- fare, and it seems to me their fmr- ther use should be prohibited by law. eee : Rebating to favored shippers is one of the most harmful practices in which the railroads have ever engaged, . That practice ‘tends to stifle competion and breed monop- oly. A law should be passed which will crush this out, or those who attempt it be sent to jail. see 4 A law should speedily be enacted correcting the demurrage chrage evil. career -_** The question of the greatest con- cern to all the people is the railroad A ment of the law we have on that{” subject and the enactment. of such parlors. further laws as are neccessary; to the end that exact justice be done to all parties at interest. ‘JOHN A. BROWN County Republican Candidate for Surveyor. John A. Brown was elected two years ’go to the office of county sur- veyor because the electors considered him a competent person to serve in that capacity. 1f they are stil] desire ous of such service he will be renomi- natedfnext Tuesday and re-elected on the 6th day*of November next. It will,not be making it ‘too .strong to say that Mr. ‘Bown is the most capa- ble surveyor in Itasca county. If that is what the people want in ‘the office their votes will be marked for him.
