There is one feature of the primary law which is making it- self apparent during the present campaign which does not recom- mend the law to thinking people. It is very evident that the opera- tion of the law tends to the dis- ruption of parties. It is true that the American people are burden- ed with too much politics, but in a free country like ours political salvation lies in political parties only. The truth is that the prim- ary law is only an experiment as yetand we have not experimented with it long enough to know what its virtues or its faults are. By the time the present campaign is ended and the legislature meets next winter we shall know a good deal more about what we want to do with it, but the fact that the law tends to the break- ing up of party lines cannot be denied and is a matter serious enough to command our earnest consideration, ForTy-EIGHT per cent of the candidates for teachers certifi- cates at the August state exam- inations in this state failed. Such unwholesome failure is due* to the fact that hundreds of imma- ture young men and women an- nually attempt the examinations not hoping to pass but simply for the purpose of accustoming them- selves to the character of the questions asked soas to secure a certificate at the earliest possi- ble opportunity. We are glad to know that the standard for teach- ers in Minnesota is gradually be- ing raised and that not many years hence it will be at a point that will thoroughly equipped teachers for all the schools of the state instead of for but a part of them as at present. insure “DRAINAGE, good roads and the re-election of Senator Clapp” —that is a pretty good platform for a candidate for the legislature from this district and we admire Dr. Lewis L. Mayland for his What we want is a man who has some detinite idea of what he will do for his constituents when he is elected rather than a man who simply wants to be elected. The man who has a definite purpose is pretty apt to accomplish it. statement of principles. THE Minnesota state fair is in full swing. It is a big thing itself and a big thing for Minnesota. It is unrivaled by anything at- tempted on the continent short of a national exhibition; it is an exhibition of the resources of Minnesota and the whole north- west, and an eloquent demostra- tion of what Minnesota and the great northwest are rapidly achieving—supremacy in eyery industrial and commercial line.

IS DEAD DETHRONED TURKISH RULER EX- PIRES IN HIS PRISON AT CONSTANTINOPLE. Consiantinople, Aug. 31.—Former Sultan Murad V. is dead of diabetes, | from which he had long suffered. Murad V. was born in 1840 and ascended the throne after the murder of Sultan Abdul Aziz in May, 1876. In July of that year Murad was placed under the regency of his brother, the present sultan, Abdul Hamid IL, and on Aug. 31 he was dethroned. ground that he was insane. facts in the case, however, will prob- ably never be known, but it has been claimed that Murad was a good deal more sane than his brother and one of the greatest terrors of Abdul Ham- id’s existence was the fear that this “man with the iron mask,” as he has been termed, might escape from his blace of confinement in the Cheragan palace and some six years ago he was removed to the Malta Kiosk, in the grounds of the Yildiz palace, occu- pied by Abdul Hamid, which is sur- rounded by lofty walls. The confinement of Murad has been of the cruelest character. Only his Jailers were allowed to see him and every precaution was taken to prevent any intelligence of what was going on in the outside world from reaching him. Although Murad is announced to have died from diabetes it had gen- erally been understood, according to the palace reports, that he was suffer- ing from tuberculosis. TRAVELS TWO HUNDRED MILES.

Chicago, Aug. 31.—The national ex- ecutive board of the Butcher Work-|¢ men, at a meeting during. the morning, voted not to call off the strike, but in- stead the struggle is to be continued until the strikers are “accorded an honorable adjustment,” according to a statement issued by President Don- nelly as a result of the meeting. “After careful investigation of all points,” he said, “we find our mem- bers are standing as firmly for the maintenance of the principle involved as they were at the inception of the strike. Hence we believe in voting to continue the strike until we are ac- corded an honorable adjustment we are voicing the sentiments of our con- stituents.” About 200 union workmen and wo- men returned to the stock yards dur- ing the morning and were given work. The packers do not regard this, how- ever, as a break in the ranks of the strikers and the labor leaders say that the condition is normal, the number having returned and others deserted each day for some time.
