TWO CHARMING DUCHESSES—AMERICAN AND ENGLISH—A PERSONAL SKETCH THE LADY OF THE TOWN Constance, duchess of Westmister, is one of the most beautiful women in English society. She has a light, clear complexion, brown hair, is tall and graceful in figure and possesses a charming manner and magnetic personality. Before her marriage she was Miss "Sheleigh" Cornwallis-West, daughter of Col. and Mrs. Cornwallis West of Ruthin castle, North Wales, who are connected with some of the most important families in England. Her marriage was a genuine love affair as she and the duke were boy and girl together, and on one occasion went through a form of betrothed half jess in earnest. The Grosvenor was encouraged, the match, but shortly after she announced his grandfather the young duke announced his engagement which was speedily followed by his marriage. They have two children, Lady Ursula Mary Olivia Grosvenor and Lord Grosvenor, who is godson of King Edward and the prince of Wales. The duchess of Westmister is a fine whip, can ride well to hounds and has a practical knowledge of seamanship. She has a real love of horses, one as one as a groom, and is clever at dressing horses, dogs and other animals. She is also fond of flowers, and has done LIVE WIRE IN RAILROAD SERVICE "Who is this man Fritch?" is the question being asked by many old railroad heads. The query is a reasonable one, for it has only consumed L. C. FRITCH. a year for Mr. Fritch to jump from a good clerkship to one of the stellar lights in the railway world. A little over twelve months ago Mr. Fritch was assistant to the general manager of the Illinois Central road, and aside from a good acquaintance among technical railroad men he was practically unknown to the general public and the financial world. When he was made assistant to President Hanrahan, he attracted the attention of the public and vigorous character asserted itself. His first big work was as one of the three tellers in counting the votes in the famous Fish-Harriman fight. All through this contest Mr. Fritch showed himself to be a general of rare ability. His principal character to being a civil engineer, he is an attorney at law. His most recent big work is to assume charge, practically isic is breadth of view. In addition he has been a big Chicago terminals of this road. Following is Mr. Fritch's record: Born in Springfield, Ill., Aug. 18, 1867. He pursued the course of civil engineering in the University of Cincinnati, and later studied law and was admitted to the bar in that state. He started railroad work twenty-four years ago as supervisor's assistant on the old Ohio & Mississippi road, later becoming chief engineer of the line. In 1883 he became connected with the Baltimore & Ohio Southwestern as division engineer and later superintendent. This position he leftr in February, 1904, to take service with the Illinois Central, doing special work for one year when he was made assistant to the president. In this place he has been given more original authority much to improve the gardens of her various residences. Among her jewels are a set of extremely fine rubles which have often been reset, and also that magnificent gem, the "Neska" diamond, which is almost the size or a two shilling piece, and is of course of charmous value. It may be worn as a pendant, but the devices generally fasten it in front of the neck, and it shows to great effect as a swinging earring. As to the duke, he is still young, only twenty-nine, but began to be a prominent person at the age of twenty. He saw real service in the South African war, was present at the Bloomonton conference, and later on to help his the British flag on Pretoria. His tastes are simple, his manner easy and he never puts on any arms, though he has the largest rent roll of any peer in England. Consuelo, duchess of Marborough, daughter of Willie K. Vanderbilt of New York, is tall and slender, with a long neck and small, pliant features. She is pretty, but of a Japanese order, and eyes and ears are curious, wistful and appealing in expression. She is perhaps the most attractive of American peeches in England, possessing youth, beauty, brains, as well as fabulous wealth. Her voice is soft and low, and her manner gentle and winning. and wider jurisdiction than any of his predecessors and probably more than is delegated those in similar positions on other roads. DOG DETECTIVES IN GERMANY Year by year I attend trials of "police dogs" in Germany and Austria, where man hunting dogs are trained and bred for police purposes and where dogs have become a branch of the police organization. In Germany there is a society called the Association for Furthering the Breeding and Employment of Police Dogs, and ideas on the subject are exchanged, all experiments with dogs being carefully reported. Of thorough and painstaking study were devoted to this subject before suitable breeds of dogs were obtained and proper methods of working the dogs were discovered.

Defective Page THE DUCHESS OF MARLBOROUGH MISS MAUDE ODELL Her frocks come from Paris, but she has a distinctive style of her own. In the evening she generally wears black or white, while during the day she wears gowns made of some soft material with a high full huckle or tulle or chiffon. She reads, writes and better still, thinks, and is a good platform speaker, and takes a great interest in the prison question. She is quite an authority on art, is enthusiastic over miniatures and of the latter, and is a great admirer of Marle ds Mediel and another of Mary Queen of Scots. Consueleo's pearls are marvelous in size and beauty, many of the largest being worth $5,000 each. She has two sons, Lord Blandford and Lord Churchill, to whom she devotes almost her entire time. For the rest she rather avoids society, and has some quaint pets, such as snakes, vultures, pelicans and ostrichs. The duke of Marborough holds a place of his own among the English nobility. He is ninth duke, and besides his six brothers, he is as prince of Mindelheim in Suabia, as a prince of the Holy Roman Empire. He shoots and hunts, but his chief interest seems to be political. He is a keen tariff reformer, was once chancellor of the Primrose league, and has acted as under secretary for the colonies. nally Brunswick was the headquarters of the German police doggy men and when canine assistance was required one of the officers at once set out with a dog. These officers and dogs often traveled long journeys, going as far as Paris and Constantinople on two occasions. The German trainers soon came to the conclusion that not even the most perfect dog would carry a line three or four days old when he was not in a perfect working condition, as he would not be after a long train journey. Before anything else the "train" of a dog must be quite fresh because he has to do far more mental than physical work. Further, a dog brought to a country in which the conditions are different from those of his home cannot settle down to the work at once with his mind quite fresh for the task. Getting married is a good deal like buying a horse covered with a blanket. PORTRAIT OF A FAMOUS DANCER port of portrait of Lola Montez, the dancer, after whom Joseph M.

SOUTHERNER'S SYMPATHY. Every once in a while—of greater or lesser length, some southern brother becomes very sympathetic in regard to the Afro-American and sheds bitter tears over his hapless condition. But he never is thrown into this despondent condition by the fact that some suspected Afro-American has been lynched, shot to death, or burned at the stake. It occasions our southern, white brother no sorrow or sadness when a score of Afro-American churches and school-houses are burned by night-riders. None of these things trouble his mind or worry his conscience. But when it comes to discussing the relations of the Afro-Americans to the Republican party, the Southern brother grows lachrimose, and refuses to be comforted, as shown by the annexed extract from the Houston Post. "What the white Republicans of the South, aided by unprincipled Republicans of the North, have done to sink the Southern Negroes, whom they had enfranchised, by appealing to their poverty and cupidity, constitutes one of the most damnable crimes of a W. H. HON. WILLIAM H. TAFT Next President of the United States. * "For a length of time race bitterness seems to be abated, and then there will be an outbreak, a mob will be formed, developing the most fendish cruelty, manifesting itself in the blindest and most unreasonable assaults upon perfectly innocent people simply because of their color. It is possible to read accounts of this sort without having one's blood boil with indignation that there can reside breast such a savage and beastly impulse and motive." -William H. Taft. country. The only hope these poor creatures had from the beginning, inexperienced and untutored as they were, was in helpful sympathy and wholesome influences. They needed lessons and examples in good citizenship. They needed to be taught the value of virtue, honesty and industry, but the men from whom they had a right to expect such things only pointed them to the pathways of curruption and ruin. The history of the Republican party in Texas is so infamous, no expulsion of the Negroes can ever lift it to the confidence of the people. But it is possibly true that the Negroes themselves, emanated from the blight and degradation which their white political associates forced upon them, may find the pathway to useful and honorable living less obstructed. At least, let us hope so." Now the Post cannot deny the fact that the Republican Party established public schools for the Afro-American in every southern state, which exist to this day, and in addition, many institutions of superior grade all over the south. Nor can it deny that hundreds of the buildings for such use were burned down by somebody who is not of the Republican household. Moreover, the Republican party restored Texas and all the other rebel states to their place in the union, through the instrumentality of the Afro-American vote. We may further remark that the peonage laws passed by nearly every southern state were so damnably damnable, as to render it absolutely necessary for the Republican party to secure the enactment of the 14th and 15th amendments. W. H. "As a Nation our duty compels that by every constitutional and reasonable means the material and educational condition of the Afro-American be advanced. This we owe to ourselves as well as to them. As the result of a course of events that can never be reversed, they are a part of our country. Our prosperity is our prosperity; their debasement would be our misfortune. "The Republican party, therefore, will offer every encouragement to the thrift, industry and intelligence that will better their prospect of higher attainment."—James S. Sherman. ness seems to be abated, and then be formed, developing the most fiendish and most unreasonable simply because of their color, it is without having one's blood boil with the human breast such a savage and m H. Taft. WHERE BRYAN STANDS. We hope that every Afro-American voter will not fail to pay special attention to the following from the Washington Evening Star: The Omaha Bee, on the subject of the Negro and the suffrage, says: "It would be interesting to know what Mr. Bryan thinks of the question. The southern wing of the Democratic party, which dominates the organization, should be magnanimous and allow Mr. Bryan to tell the northern people, particularly the northern Negroes, where he stands on the question of Negro disfranchisement." "This is a useless inquiry. Mr. Bryan's position is thoroughly plain. He stands just where Mr. Cleveland stood, and just where any other man bearing the national standard of the Democracy would be obliged to stand. He approves of the Negro disfranchisements in the South, and if Maryland, West Virginia, Kentucky and Missouri should join the states which have already acted he would approve that. Any other position would be impossible for him. The disfranchisements already affected will give him nearly forty unconstitutional votes, and all of his calculations include that strength. Were he to deceive it, and announce a purpose, if elected, to press for an enforcement of the amendments covering the matter, he would commit political suicide. He would lose the whole support of the South, and go down in a defeat which would make Judge Parker's defeat look almost like a triumph by comparison." Any reasonable man can hardly see that the statements of the Star are reasonable deductions from the surroundings in which Mr. Bryan finds himself. His only hope of election lies, in the South, and he dares not utter one word in condemnation of the most atrocious acts of that section of the country. He even contradicted the statement of some prominent colored men who claimed to have satisfactory assurances from him. He utterly failed to endorse the statements of Mr. Watterson. It is true that he may have made some promises that he would do some favors for such northern Afro-Americans as would try to secure for him a portion of the vote of their race in the North, but, if he did so, he used every precaution to prevent the fact from becoming known in the South. TAFT THOROUGHLY TESTED. It may be doubted whether the country has ever had a candidate for the Presidency who was ever so thoroughly tested as Judge Taft has been. During the past seven years he has been intrusted with missions in regard to matters of the greatest difficulty and importance; and in every instance he has brought about the most favorable results. He has been intrusted time and time again with most important duties of the Presidential office and has never been found wanting. In fact, it may be asserted that he has already served as President, as in many cases, the management of affairs in Cuba, Panama and the Philippines has been left, so as detail is concerned, to his own discretion. On the contrary Mr. Bryan has had almost no personal acquaintance with the management of public affairs. With the exception of a term or two in the House of Representatives, he has served in no public office, and he was rather an inconspicuous figure even in the House. No one can remember any important thing which he did, any great results that he secured, or any useful policy that he advocated. On the other hand he has had as many failures as Beau Brummel had in tying his cravats. If the people of the United States have as much discretion as a railway company exercises in employing an engineer, they will surely employ Judge Taft, the competent, in preference to Bryan, the untried. The United States, by constitutional amendment, has given the right to vote to every man without regard to race or color; but this enactment of the whole people is nullified by the Democrats of certain Southern States, who declare that only Caucasians shall exercise the rights of suffrage. The Republican party has taken up the matter and made it its platform a declaration for the enforcement of the Constitution. Mr. Bryan's principles, so far as he has any that are fixed, trend directly toward Populism. His utterances of the present day are a heterogeneous mixture of almost every fad and ism that ever been weighed in the balance and found wanting. He stands ready to endorse any creed or doctrine that may secure a vote for Bryan, not excepting jim crow cars, grandfather clauses and Haskell. The Republican managers admit that some weeks ago they were somewhat dismayed by the dust which Bryan was pawing in various sections, but since Judge Taft's tour in the "enemy's country" they are satisfied, even jolly, over the situation. Taft may not carry the phenomenal Roosevelt majorities, but he will "get there" just the same. The Department of Justice, under the Roosevelt administration, has unearthed many cases of peonage in Georgia, Alabama, and Mississippi, and successfully prosecuted many Southern Caucasians who were holding their Afro-American brethren in bondage. In every instance the offender was a Democrat. MONOLOGUE BY THE PEERLESS ONE. As a long distance runner I class by myself. I run early and often—it pays me in self.

St. Paul, Minn., May 1st, 1908. Hon. Julius A. Schmaltz, Secretary of State— Sir: As required by Section 25 of the Revised Laws, as amended, I have the authority to be sent to the electors of the respective amendments proposed to the Constitution of the State of Minnesota by the legislature of 1907, and which are to be amended by the electors of valid State at the General Election of 1908. FIRST PROPOSED AMENDMENT The first proposed amendment is contained in 1907. By this amendment it is sought to repeal Sections one (1), two (2), three (3), and four (4) of the Constitution (nine) of the Constitution (the latter section being the amendment to said Amendment) and adopt the 1896, which sections now require it. **Section 2.** The legislature shall provide for an annual tax sufficient to defray the estimated ordinary expenses of the state, and shall also shall happen that such ordinary expenses of the state for any year shall exceed the income of the state for such year the state shall pay the amount for the ensuing year sufficient, with other sources of income, to pay the deficiency estimated expenses of such ensuing year. But no law levying a tax or making other provisions for the payment of interest or principal of bonds denominated "Minnesota Bonds" takes place, and be in force upon such law have been submitted to a vote of the people of the state, and adopted by a majority of the electors of the state vote. **Section 3. Laws shall be passed taxing all money's credits, investments in otherwise, also all real and personal property, according to its true value in money; but public burying grounds, public school houses, public hospitals, academies of learning, and all church property of learning, all church property used for religious purposes, and houses of worship, institutes, and property used exclusively for any public purpose, and personal property to an amount not exceeding in value two hundred dollars for each individual, shall, by governmental taxation, be taxed in section 4. Laws shall be passed for taxing the notes and bills discounted or purchased, money's loaned, and all other property, effects, or dues of every delivery, so that all property employed in banking shall always be subject to a taxation equal to that imposed on the prop- Defective Page and to substitute therefor the following: "Sec. 1. The power of taxation shall never be surrendered, suspended or contracted away. Taxes shall be uniform and shall be levied on public purposes, but public burying grounds, public burying grounds, public hospitals, academies, colleges, universities, seminaries of learning, all churches, church property used for religious purposes, all churches, church property used for purely public charity, and public property used exclusively for any public purpose, shall be exempt from taxation, personal property not exceeding in value $200 for each household, individual, personal property may determine. But the legislature may authorize municipal corporations to levy and collect assessments for local improvements upon property benefited from taxation, and nothing herein contained shall be construed to affect, modify or repeal the power of taxation of the gross earnings of railroads. This proposed constitutional amendment was submitted and voted upon at the state legislature, but a content was instituted by interested parties, claiming that the amendment now pending in the courts and it was on that account that the legislature decided to re-submit the amendment to the people, so that however the content may be amended, the power granted by the amendment. For the purpose of discussing the effect of the amendment to the content, it will assume that the same amendment submitted at the last election, did not carry. The purpose and effect of this amendment are to give the power of the legislature with reference to the subject of taxation. Section one of the amendment imposes equal—as far as any taxes imposed shall be—on all forms of property, and all property upon which a tax is imposed shall be—on all forms of property. That is the duty of the legislature without any constitutional direction. Section two (2) as it now stands requires the legislature to levy the necessary tax annually. That is the duty of the legislature without any constitutional direction. Section three (3) as it now stands provides that real and personal property, including MONEYS, CREDITS and IN-LIBRARY BONDS AND STOCKS, shall be assessed according to their true value in money. The amendment which, if adopted, would take the place of all of the sections of the Constitution, including the simple and plain. No provision of the Constitution is necessary to authorize the imposition of the taxes necessary for the construction of the subdivisions. The power of taxation is inherent in government. This proposed amendment declares that this inherent power shall be abolished, suspended or contracted away; that taxes shall be imposed for public purposes, suspended or contracted away; that same class of subjects. Should this amendment be adopted all property of the state be taxed to taxation, according to the method the legislature saw fit to adopt, provided only that the tax was levied for a public purpose and was uniform on the same basis as the property every tax law we now have statute books would continue to be valid, because under this amendment all limitations would be taken away. The adoption of this amendment would, as indicated, repress the gross earnings and the gross earnings tax amendment adopted in 1896, as contained in said Section seventeen (17), under the Constitution, and the gross earnings tax amendment adopted in 1896, as contained in said Section seventeen (17), under the Constitution, and any form of gross earnings tax would be valid. The gross earnings tax amendment, as the Constitution provides that they cannot be changed without submittal, would be changed vote of the people. But with the amendment various new forms of taxation could be imposed, notably an income tax, a temporary income tax, or a tax on mortgages. Under the present Constitution owned by non-residents are tax on mortgages which would be valid under this amendment, would be valid all mortgages alike. The amendment would impose the objects of taxation to have a cash valuation with the tax equalized throughout the no proper income tax could be imposed. SECOND PROPOSED AMENDMENT. NON PROPOSED AMENDMENT. The amendment contained in Chapter 478 of Laws of Minnesota for the year 1907. By this amendment it is sought to repeal Section (6) of Article 9 (9) of the Constitution, which section now reads as follows: "For the purpose of lending aid in the construction and improvement of public highways and roads, a fund created a fund to be known as the 'State Road and Bridge Fund'. Said fund shall be derived from investments in the may have improved fund, or that may have been improved fund, or that shall also include all funds accruing to any state road and bridge fund, however the legislature is authorized to add such fund for the purpose of constructing state, by providing, in its discretion, for an annual levy upon the property of this state of not to exceed in any year all the taxable property within the state. The legislature is also authorized to construct all the taxable property within the state. The legislature is also authorized to error of the state, of a board to be known as the 'State Highway Commission', consisting of three (3) members, prescribed by law without salary or compensation other than personal expenses. superintendence of the construction of state roads and bridges and shall use distribution in construction thereof and distribute in the state upon an equitable basis in the state upon an equitable basis in any year more than three (3) per cent or less than one-half (1/2) of one per cent of total fund thus provided, in the state upon such fund provided, further that no more in one-third (1/3) of such fund accruing in one-third (1/3) of such fund bridges, and in no case shall more than one-third (1/3) of the cost of construction be paid by the state from such fund. and to substitute therefor the following: "Section 16. For the purpose of lending aid in the construction and improvement of public highways and bridges, known as the 'State Road and Bridge Fund' shall include, in money accrued to the fund shall include, money investments in the internal improvement to said fund, and shall also include all funds accruing to any state road and bridge fund, and shall also include all such fund, for the purpose of constructing or improving roads and bridges of such providing, in its discretion, for an annual tax levy upon the property of this state." The purpose and effect of this amendment, therefore, is the legislature to levy upon all the property of the state any amount necessary, in its judgment, for the construction of bridges therein, and in so far removes the limitation which now exists in the Constitution, therefore, the legislature is prevented from laying out the property of one-twenty-one one-twenty-one (1-20) of one (1) in the taxable property within the state. This amendment further authorizes the legislature to provide salary and compensation, including personal expenses for highway commission, or any other like other entrusted by law with similar duties. Finally, this amendment removes the limitation which now exists in the Constitution, and it also requires the commission in the distribution of the road and bridge fund of the state where authenticated, and the amount which the state would pay for constructing or improving any road or bridge, and the management of such fund to be provided for by law, as the legislature shall deem wise. It also adopts of this amendment will not limit the nature to create a highway commission and define its powers, nor will it interfere in the enforcement of office of the present commission. THIRD PROPOSED AMENDMENT The third proposed amendment is contained in Chapter 379 of the Laws of Minnesota and the fourth amendment it is sought to add to the following section to Article nine (9) of the Constitution as a requirement. The legislature m-y-provide for the payment by the State of Minnesota of damages to growing crops in the county where the damage a vide a fund for that purpose, may impose a specific tax upon lands, the owner of the land, the same with county auditors for that purpose, and no payment shall be made of any such damages except from the county auditors. The purpose and effect of this amendment is to permit the state to become the trustee in the collection and disbursement of a fund for the payment of damages to growing crops. It is to be created and maintained by a specific tax upon the lands of such persons who are to be made aware of the same with their respective county auditors for such purpose. There can be no tax for such purpose imposed on the lands of such persons, nor can the government impose it. Its adoption will allow the legislature to impose the tax on the state be used to levy and collect the tax necessary to raise such fund, and to provide for the disbursement of the state tax. The state will pay payments to be made by the state by reason of damage by bail or wind will have no responsibility beyond the amount of such damage and could not further be rendered liable. FOURTH PROPOSED AMENDMENT. The fourth proposed amendment is contained in Chapter 480 of the laws of Minnesota, and it is sought to repeal the provisions of Section seven (7) of Article seven (7) of the Constitution, which section now reads as follows: "Every person who by the provisions of this article shall be entitled to vote at any election shall be eligible to any office held by the person by virtue of the people in the district wherein he shall have resided thirty days previous to such election, except as otherwise provided in this Constitution, or the Constitution." and to substitute therefor the following: "Every person who by the provisions of this article shall be entitled to vote at any election shall be, which now is, or hereafter shall be,免责 by the people in the district wherein he shall have resided thirty days previous superintendents of schools, who shall be required to have educational qualifications to be admitted to the county superintendent of schools, who shall be required to have educational qualifications to be admitted to the county superintendent of schools, or the Constitution and laws of the United States. The purpose and effect of this amendment require the legislature to require educational qualifications, in addition to all the other qualifications now required by the Constitution, to the office of county superintendent of schools. As the Constitution now stands any legal voting in the office of county superintendent of schools. The foregoing four proposed amendments proposed for adoption at the meeting General Election.

SCENE FROM MONTANA That Comes to the Grand for the Week Commencing Sunday Matinee, Oct. 25th. "Montana" is distinctly a western play. All the characters are cleverly drawn, and through the entire four acts, the audience sees but the beautiful and picturesque country, as near as an artist can paint it. When the curtain rises on the first act, one's eyes are feasted to a most beautiful scene of the famous and well-known Buckhorn ranch. The second act shows a street in Ft. Benton. This is said to be the most typical scene of the far west ever placed upon the stage. The third act shows the beautiful yet lonely Last Chance Grüth, and by those who are judges, it has been said that the triumph of the scenic artist's brush has been reached. This scene alone requires over fifteen minutes to set, and ten electrical appliances are required to secure the wondrous and beauteous effect that is seen on the rise of the curtain. The fourth act shows the interior of a typical ranch house; this set is one of particular study, as and because the ranch furniture, that is to say, the tables, chairs, etc., have all been made on ranch by cow-punchers themselves. One cannot conceive the oddity and at the same time the beauty of such, unless seen by themselves. To transport all this, a sixty foot baggage car is required, beside a working staff of four carpenters and electricians. One of the big features of "Montana" is "Dolly Varden," the famous $5,000 acting Morgan mare. Francis J. Gillen, formerly of the Neill Co., will be seen in the leading role and is supported by a company of fifteen actors and actress of well-known ability. Soiree at Deitch Hall, cor.

To the Voters in St. Paul You gave me a very large majority two years ago for County Commissioners who have tried to deserve and hope to receive a much larger majority at the coming election, despite the opposition of contractors who want their pay before they have done their work. Look down the list of County Commissioners and put a x opposite Eugene Bryan, Republican candidate for county attorney has been a practising lawyer in St. Paul eight years, and is senior member of the firm of Bryan & Coffman. He came to St. Paul from Iowa, where he practised in Des Moines and Eagle Grove. In Des Moines he was assistant city attorney for a while and in Eagle Grove he served as city attorney and assistant county attorney. Mr. Bryan stands well with the profession in St. Paul and enjoys a fairly lucrative practice. JOHN H. Republican Candidate for County Treasurer. Mr. Jesse Foot who seeks a reelection as County Treasurer needs no words of commendation as his good work in his official capacity speaks for him in a way nothing else can. He is a wholesale, generous, honest, and upright official who deserves to be re-elected. Don't fall to vote for him. J. B. M. J. FITZGERALD. Republican Candidate for Register of Deeds. ROBERT H. SENG. Republican Candidate for County Commissioner. Democratic Candidate for County Attorney, Ramsey County, Mr. Richard D. O'Brien, who is a candidate for reelection as County attorney of Ramsey County, is a son of Mr. C. D. O'Brien who is the well known and prominent attorney who at one time filled the mayor's chair very acceptably. Mr. O'Brien has made good as County Attorney and is entitled to remain right where he is. Remember him on election day.

H. S. FAIRCHILD JESSE FOOT. R. D. O'BRIEN. W. H. EDWARD G. KRAHMER Republican Candidate for Auditor Ramsey County, Respectfully Asks Your Consideration of his Record and Candidacy. [Image of a man in a suit with a bow tie]. DAVID F. PEEBLES. Democratic Candidate for Congress. Fourth Congressional District of Minnesota. "Special Privileges to None." M. W. FITZGERALD. Republican Candidate for Renomination Representative of Dorset County tion as Register of Deeds Ramsey Mr. Fitzgerald is no stranger to the voters and taxpayers of Ramsey County. He is a candidate at the earnest solicitation of attorneys, real estate men and the many who have business with him. He is efficient, stratification oriented, emprgrs and his intelligent management of the office makes it one of the best conducted in the State. It was during Mr. Fitzgerald's incumbency that the Torrens system of transferring real property was authorized by the legislature in the counties of Ramsey, Hennepin and St. Louis. Since the passage of that law which constitutes the register of deeds of Ramsey county, the register of titles, Mr. Fitzgerald has devoted a great deal of time and study to the adaptation of the system to this county. He has labored incessantly upon the system, preparing forms, arranging details, and attending to the thousand and one things necessary to facilitate and perfect the operation of the new law. This in itself has involved much time and labor, but Mr. Fitzgerald feels that his efforts have been amply rewarded by the results. Aside from all considerations of politics, M. W. Fitzgerald deserves the support of the electorate. He has proved his worth by his daily work, and there is no excuse that can be justly advanced in favor of a change. Faithful discharge of onerous public duty, for small compensation, can now where be better rewarded than in the re-election of M. W. Fitzgerald. As the Afro-Americans in large numbers are acquiring property it behooves them to take an interest in the matter of the titles to the same. Then too Mr. Fitzgerald has shown something of his spirit of fairness to all classes by giving employment at times to several Afro-Americans in his office. J. H. ARMSTRONG. Republican Candidate for Surveyor Ramsey County. Mr. Armstrong has already given one term of service in the office for which he has flied. He was county surveyor two years ago, and gave a satisfactory administration of the office. He is a civil engineer with an office in the National German-American Bank building, is a resident of the Seventh ward, and his lived in St. Paul for the past twenty-five years. An X after Mr. Armstrong's name on the ballot will be a push for better management of an important county office, which handles from $60,000 to $70,000 of the public moneys every year.

To the Voters in St. Paul You gave me a very large majority two years ago for County Commissioner. I have tried to deserve and hope to receive a much larger majority at the coming election, despite the opposition of contractors who want their pay before they have done their work. Look down the list of County Commissioners and put a x opposite EUGENE BRYAN. Republican Candidate for County Attorney Ramsey County. Eugene Bryan, Republican candidate for county attorney has been a practising lawyer in St. Paul eight years, and is senior member of the firm of Bryan & Coffman. He came to St. Paul from Iowa, where he practised in Des Moines and Eagle Grove.

Mr. Bryan stands well with the profession in St. Paul and enjoys a fairly lucrative practice. Republican Candidate for County Treasurer. Mr. Jesse Foot who seeks a re-election as County Treasurer needs no words of commendation as his good work in his official capacity speaks for him in a way nothing else can. He is wholesome, generous, honest, and right official who deserves to be re-elected. Don't fail to vote for him. A. B. M. J. FITZGERALD. Republican Candidate for Register of Deeds. ROBERT H. SENG. Republican Candidate for County Commissioner. Democratic Candidate for County Attorney, Ramsey County. Mr. Richard D.

H. S. FAIRCHILD PETER H. JESSE FOOT. W. H. EDWARD G. KRAHMER Republican Candidate for Auditor Ramsey County, Respectfully Asks Your Consideration of his Record and Candidacy. DAVID F. PEEBLES. Democratic Candidate for Congress. Fourth Congressional District of Minnesota. "Special Privileges to None." M. W. FITZGERALD. Republican Candidate for Renomination as Register of Deeds Ramsey Mr. Fitzgerald is no stranger to the voters and taxpayers of Ramsey County. He is a candidate at the earnest solicitation of attorneys, real estate men and the many who have business with him. He is efficient, straightforward, honorable, upright and his intelligent management of the office makes it one of the best conducted in the State. It was during Mr. Fitzgerald's incumbency that the Torrens system of transferring real property was authorized by the legislature in the counties of Ramsey, Hennepin and St. Louis. Since the passage of that law which constitutes the register of deeds of Ramsey county, the register of titles, Mr. Fitzgerald has devoted a great deal of time and study to the adaptation of the system to this county. He has labored incessantly upon the system, preparing forms, arranging details, and attending to the thousand and one things necessary to facilitate and perfect the operation of the new law. This in itself has involved much time and labor, but Mr. Fitzgerald feels that his efforts have been amply rewarded by the results. Aside from all considerations of politics, M. W. Fitzgerald deserves the support of the electorate. He has provided his worth by his daily work, and there is no excuse that can be justly advanced in favor of a change. Faithful discharge of onerous public duty, for small compensation, can now where he better rewarded than in the re-election of M. W. Fitzgerald. As the Afro-Americans in large numbers are acquiring property it behooves them to take an interest in the matter of the titles to the same. Then too Mr. Fitzgerald has shown something of his spirit of fairness to all classes by giving employment at times to several Afro-Americans in his office. J. H. ARMSTRONG. Republican Candidate for Surveyor Ramsev County, Mr. Armstrong has already given one term of service in the office for which he has flied. He was county surveyor two years ago, and gave a satisfactory administration of the office. He is a civil engineer with an office in the National German-American Bank building, is a resident of the Seventh ward, and his lived in St. Paul for the past twenty-five years. An X after Mr. Armstrong's name on the ballot will be a push for better management of an important county office, which handles from $60,000 to $70,000 of the public moneys every year.
