COTTAGE GROVE LEADER
T w o good points made by J udge
Cake in his Cottage Grove address
were: “ Cnder the old method o f
electing t'nited States senators, it
is harder to send a poor man to the
national senate than for a rich
man to enter the kingdom o f
heaven.”
The anti-statenjent No.
1, legislative candidates seem to
assume that " T h e people are wise
enough to elect me to the legisla
ture but they have not sufficient
intelligence to choose the I'nited
Stales senator for themselves.
I ’ll
choose for them .”
