I'm mity glad that our governor
starts out so fine with Ralph Wheelock
as private secretary in place of Frank
Day. Wheelock ain't mixed up with
factions and he's a better represents
tive of the cleaner and better element
in the repub party than lots of the
galled old jades whose literal and po
litical decease identical would be an
unmixed blessin'to repub interests in
Minnesota. There's alwus a lot of old
seeds hangin' on who are noihin' but
barnacles. They are responsible for
the defeat of such clean repub candi
dates as Cole and Jacobson. They
should be unselfish and simply want
the G. O. P. to succeed on staunch and
high principles. I get so vexed over
the bunch that are alwus stickin' in
in their noise,and endangerin' harmony
and peace that 1 could club 'em to
mush. Gov. Eberhart is takin high
ground'in tryin' to act independently
as he considers best for the state and
the bloodsuckers ought to keep off of
him and giv him a chance.

The dirty game which Tawney and
the Cannon and Aldrich fortes put up
on thiijf. country in the iniquitous tariff
bill won't down and I'm glad of it. As
Cummins says the fight will go on in
the people's interests and will be hotter
in the future. 'We 're goin' to see be
fore this thing is thru whether the
voters in the party are the true repubs
cr whether a little low lived clique of
gratters and standpatters who are
bat sti -i' for the trusts and monopolies
are. We're goin to fight it to a finish.
