<br />SATURDAY MARCH 7, 1908.
<br />The Republican State Convention.
<br />The official call has been issued for
<br />, the republican state convention, to be
<br />held at Minneapolis, Apr. 16th, for
<br />the purpose of ratifying the selection
<br />of four delegates to the national
<br />convention. It is based upon five
<br />at large and one for ea,;h two hun•
<br />dred, not the vote for governor as it
<br />should be, but the average for the
<br />state ticket. The total is eleven hun-
<br />dred and forty-three delegates, a
<br />terrible mob if they were all present.
<br />By this computation Hennepin Coun-
<br />ty, which is directly responsible for
<br />our three recent defeats, has oue
<br />hundred and thirteen as a reward for
<br />its treachery to the party. Quite a
<br />number of the counties have the so-
<br />called unlucky thirteen, Clay, Dakota,
<br />Itasca, Jackson, Martin, Morrison,
<br />Mower, Stearns, Steele, and
<br />Wabasha.
<br />For Preeldential Elector.
<br />The recent suggestion of The
<br />South St. Paul Reporter, that Dr. H.
<br />L. Sumption, of Hastings, be chosen
<br />as one of the third district delegates
<br />to the republican national convention,
<br />has been very favorably received
<br />throughout the district, the general
<br />opinion being that these places of
<br />honor should go to workers in the
<br />p:tjrty who do not seek rewards in
<br />the way of remunerative offices.
<br />The complimentary words of The
<br />Reporter are heartily indorsed, but
<br />as Dakota County had one of tbe
<br />delegates eight years ago we would
<br />recommend, in the interest of har-
<br />mony, that Dr. Sumption be nomina-
<br />ted as the third district candidate for
<br />presidential elector, and that the
<br />Shakopee convention indorse him
<br />for that place.
<br />The Milwaukee Road has applied
<br />to the railroad commissioners for
<br />permission to abandon thirteen miles
<br />of its track between Hastings and
<br />Red Wing, cutting out the stations of
<br />Etter and Eggleston, building a new
<br />line on higber.grounds, and eliminat-
<br />ing curves. Two new stations are
<br />proposed, and the cost of the change
<br />is estimated at about $300,000. The
<br />hearing is set for Mar. 23d.
<br />As Minnesota has been kindly
<br />pledged to Taft by the republican
<br />state committee, and the delegates
<br />were selected by the city politicians
<br />weeks ago, will some one please sug-
<br />gest any earthly reason for holding a
<br />state Cnnvontion at all?
<br />The medical department of Ham -
<br />line University is to be merged with
<br />the state university next year, re-
<br />lieving it of a serious financial bur-
<br />den. There will then be but one
<br />school of medicine and surgery in
<br />Minnesota.

<br />been said of Electric Bitters as a tonic
<br />medicine. It is good for everybody. It
<br />corrects stomach, liver, and kidney dis-
<br />orders in a prompt and efficient manner
<br />and builds up the system." Electric

<br />A Tribute to Min. C. C. Carver.
<br />In writing out this tribute of re-
<br />spect for our dear friend, it is with a
<br />fellow feeling that I turn to the friend
<br />ship of Elijah and Elisha. blow real
<br />the pain of parting comes to us as we
<br />read how Elijah begs Elisha to stay
<br />in one place while he goo's to another,
<br />so that Elisha might be spared the
<br />pain of parting with him. Three
<br />times Elisha answers, "As the Lord
<br />lived' and as thy soul l,iveth, I will
<br />not leave thee," Three times the
<br />sons of the prophet mine out toElisha,
<br />torturing that faithful Iteari with the
<br />question, "Knowest thou that the
<br />Lord will take away thy master from
<br />thy head to day?" Read the agony
<br />iu the answer, "Yea,jknow it; hold
<br />yo your peace."
<br />How like is human nature all the
<br />world over. As we see our deur ones
<br />fade away from us, how we cling to
<br />them and hope and pray that God
<br />may spare them; how we rebel against
<br />the knowledge that they must leave
<br />08.
<br />I think I can speak for all the
<br />members of this society, that with
<br />heartfelt regret we learned there was
<br />no hope for our friend, that it was
<br />the Lord's will to call Iter up higher.
<br />How we 01188 her. She was always
<br />so helpful; there was sickness, she
<br />was there carrying her bright, cheer-
<br />ful nature with her, that the sick
<br />might get more courage. Was there
<br />any work to be (lone, her home duties
<br />could be laid aside, and she was sure
<br />to be there with her helping hand and
<br />sunshiny nature.
<br />It pleased the Lord to lay the hand
<br />of affliction heavy on her the last
<br />six months of her life, for while she
<br />was ill in bed with the sickness
<br />which proved fatal, their home burn-
<br />ed and the family narrowly escaped
<br />with their lives; then an inmate of
<br />her home sickened and (lied. Al-
<br />though he was not member of her
<br />family, still the responsibility rested
<br />heavy on her. As she grew worse
<br />she was told the only hope of saving
<br />ber life was an operation. On my
<br />last visit to her before she lett for
<br />the New Orleans Sanitarium I ex-
<br />pressed my surprise and pleasure to
<br />see her so cheerful under the burden
<br />of her troubles. She answered, "God
<br />is good, and while everything seems
<br />dark just now, every dark cloud has a
<br />silver lining." It seemed such a
<br />blessing that the family could all be
<br />together. And God, in his own good
<br />time, will bring joy and gladness out
<br />of trouble. In three; weeks he took
<br />her to that Heavenly, Mansion pre-
<br />pared for those whothvo him, where
<br />there is no more night, for the
<br />Lord God giveth them light, and
<br />they shall reign forever and ever.
