"OFF" YEAR POLITICS.
For an "off" or an "on" year the
political conditions of the state
have never been in such a chaotic
position as they are at this time.
In a large measure this seems to
be due to the uncertainty of Gov.
VanSant again being a candidate
for re-nomination, and the failure
on the part of both Hon. R. C. Dunn
and Hon. Frank M. Eddy to make
unqualified statements that they are
candidates for the position. All
three seem to be playing a waiting
game, in the eyes of the political
leaders.

Gov. VanSant, however, is not a
candidate. This does not mean
that he would absolutely refuse to
receive a nomination, in case the
delegates to a convention insisted
that he must again make the race,
but it means that so far as getting
out and making an active canvass,
or having his friends solicit for
him, he will have nothing to do
with it, or will not countenance the
latter. This, we believe, is his
position.
Mr. Dunn has always had warm
friends all over the state, and they
seem to be quite active. now, in
sisting that he will be a candidate.
These friends are found in each
county of the state, and they appear
to be enthusiastic and energetic for
their leader. In the northern sec
tion, the sentiment for Mr. Dunn is
very pronounced, the newspapers
insisting that he must run and that
he will be nominated.
Mr. Eddy's boom seems to be
different from any of the other can
didates. It is believed that a
number of representatives in con
gress, or some of the retired rere
sentatives, will favor him, while
the counties of the old seventh
district, as well as many other
counties, will send up delegates for
him in case he becomes a candidate.
He is still a Barkis, however.
For lieutenant governor it is be
lieved that there will be no opposi
tion to the Hon. Ray W. Jones of
Hennepin, who made an excellent
Semi-Annual CI
earance Sale
presiding officer last winter, and
who is entitled to a second term.
Hennepin county has only to insist
on his renomination in order to
make it a certainty.
For secretary of state Peter E.
Hanson, the present incumbent, will
go in for a third term, while for
state treasurer, J. H. Block, the
present incumbent, and Peter J.
Schwarg of Dodge county, are so
far mentioned as active candidates.
For attorney general St. Paul may
have two candidates in W. J. Dona
hower and Oscar Hallum, while E.
T. Young of Appleton and Mr.
Fraser of Olmstead may set into
the contest.
There will be a very warm fight
on the railroad commissioners and
the supreme court justices. It is
likely that both Messrs. MiKs and
Miller will have strong opposition
for the former places, E. G. Valen
tine of Breckenridge having already
been announced for Mr. Mills' place.
Mr. Miller counts on St. Louis
county and the iron districts to
nominate him. Candidates for su
preme court justices, others than
the present incumbents, have not
been announced, but they are likely
to be before another six months
pass away.
It is to be hoped that the council
will follow out the suggestions of
the Commercial club and purchase
the square just south of the court
house to be added to the city's park
system. What the council needs to
do at once is to appoint a park
board, acquire suggested ground
for park purposes, and then have
the park board carry out ideas of
the club and of citizens. The prop
erty wanted can never be secured
any cheaper than it can be had at
this time. Action is wanted.
It is not very often that a dog is
the hero of a continued story, but
the experiences of Buck in the
"Call of the Wild," now running in
the Saturday Evening Post, is one
of the finest pieces of work that has
ever come from the literary pen.
Jack London, the author, shows up
dog life on the Skaguay-Dawson
trail, during the early days of the
Klondike gold stampede, in a re
markable manner.
Forty warships for the United
States are under construction in
the different navy yards in this
country. This looks like business.
A navy strong enough to protect
the American merchant marine, and
to command the respect of other
countries, isiwhat we want, and
what we are going to have—even if
the tail goes with the hide.
It may be human nature to envy
a rival or competitor, but it is not
always good policy to show it.
