St. Cloud Journal-Press: If some of
our esteemed contemporaries are to be
believed, the brewery combine, after
having elected the governor of its
choice, is now taking an active hand in
the organizitiou of the legislature.
Perhaps the Democratic p^rty can
stand a tie-up with the breweries, but
the Republican party cannot. Any taint
I of this kind will be resented by the
people. The legislature should pass
a law prohibiting breweries conducting
saloons such a law would do much to
reduce the evils of the saloons. If the
governor wants to protect the brew
erles, he should be given the chance,
The Republican legislature has a duty
to perform, atd no excuses for lailure
will be accepted.
I Lyle Tribune: A fever has invested
the Dixon Hotel and evidently is very
contagious With a number of the
sijagle boarders, it has proved fatal
while others are showing symptoms of
the disease. So far no remedy has
been secured to check the spread of
this matrimonial fever J. E. Norris,
Roy Hobkirk and Ren Perkins are the
Victims so far, and they are at present
settled down with their brides. If the
malady continues to spread, Mr. Dixon
will be compelled to increase the ca
pacity of his hotel. One of the persons
interested in the progi e&s of this matri
monial fever is the jolly miller, who is
anticipating the sale of several sacks of
his famous flour, to the newly wedded
couples.
SPEAKER CANNON
