Three parties for state officials headlined in St Paul Broad Axe
The article notes three tickets for fall state elections with leaders L. A. Rosing of Cannon Falls for the Democrats Thomas J. Meighen of Fillmore County for the Peoples Party and Samuel R. Van Sant for the Republicans. It argues the choice largely matters for business prosperity and critiques each party platform as attempt to balance interests and curb monopoly.
