LIND'S TRIUMPH, That remarkable representative of everything Republicanized, the St. Paul Pioneer Press, predicted all sorts of embarrasements for Governor Lind in his efforts to rid the grain depart- ment of ex-Inspector Clausen.. The Republican mouthpieces all over the state, in common with the Pioneer Press, were jubilant when the railroad commission reappointed Clausen. They felt that the governor’s pledges to the people in the last campaign had been thus made impossible of fulfillment at least in so faras the grain inspection department was con- But they reckoned without Clausen is a cerned. knowing the executive. He has nothing in com- mon With the farmers of Minnesota, politician. and by long experience the farmers had acquainted with this fact. Governor Lind and every repre- sentative of the party from public platform and through the press had pledged the people in the event of Lind’s election, that the whale gang then in .charge would be removed. Upon those very pledges thousands of farmers voted fur a change of state administration. Honest Johv Lind proposes to redeem every pledge he made, and back of this purpose he has the moral courage of a manly man and intellectuality in sufficient become quantity to accomplish what he un- dertakes without giving heed to those who would gladly destroy the good he to-do. The joy of ‘thiese journals came to a sudden and sad termination when the sturdy governor demonstrated that Clausen must go and did go. has undertaken A SIRONG OPINION. Ex-Mayor Strong, of New York city, 1s one of the plutes who is indis- creet enough to say what he thinks. Possible political means the largest boodle, and he baldly says so. He was in St. Paul the other day and relieved himself of Press success to him the following to a Pioneer reporter: Bryan, said he, is regarded in New York as a dead cock in the pit. Some of the wealth- iest Democrats, Who have in the past con- tributed largely to the campaign funds. are said to have threatened to withdraw their support if the free silver plank is again em- bodied in the platfurm. Yes; Strong is right. Bryan is not und never will be the candidate of millionaires. But inasmuch as the millionaires are vastly in the minori- ty that is the reason he should be elected by a vast majority. The New Yorker’s interview should be given wide publication by the reform press. THE WALKER CONSPIRACY. It isin no spirit of malice or jeal- ousy that theIIoerald-Review pays iis respects to the ‘push’ at Walker, Cass county’s seat of govornment. They’re a bad job-lot and utterly un- scrupulous, those chaps over there who have been indugted into oftice and otherwise provided for with soft They are venturesome, reck- less and to gain a vantagegpoint. will employ whatever instrument circum- stances may suggest without any re- gard to the right or wrong of their schemes. The recent trouble with the settlers at Cass Lake originated in Walker, and from that point the agitation was kept until the depart- ment at Washington took serivus cognizance of the situation, and had it not been for the influence of Sena- tor Nelson, a prosperous village of five hundred or more inhabitants would have been wiped off the map and those located there in business utterly ruined. Byt the Walker wretches cared nothing for so trifling an objection to their plans as the financial runiation of a few hundred citizens. And the means they at- tempted to employ to accomplish their devilish purpose was sufficient- ly criminal to send the whole outfit to prison for a term of years. The snaps. Walker conspirators went so far in their crusade against the existance of Cass Luke as to secure the co-opera- tion of anumber of uneducated, un- principled, irresponsible and cowardly savages, umong whom was Chief Flatmouth, to institute a real or pre- tended uprising aguinst the defense- less settlers an the disputed terri- tory. To those who know the real situation and the facts as they exist, the infamy, inhumanity and utter wantonness of this flendish con- spiracy is simply appalling to con- template. Be it known that Walker has a company of soldiers garrisoned there for protection against the In- dians, therefore the people of that town had no cause to fear the pro- posed outbreak. The encouragemen*s thus given Flatmouth and his follow- ers by leading white men of the com-; munity, and county officials as well, might have resulted in no end of trouble and possibiy a repetition of the scenes enacted at Bear Island a year ago. It only within the bounds of reason to conclude that in 1s giving advice to the Indians who were being used as tools, the projectors of this heartless undertaking offered them immunity from contaet with the Walker soldiers. Just think of it! And what was it all for? Walk- eris jealous of Cass. Lake, because the latter is more favorably located than the former. to build up a reputation as a summer resort. Sois Cass Lake, which kas far superior advantages over its rival. A majority of the summer excursion- ists to this section come up by boat to Duluth and thence over the Great Northern to our famous lakes, streams Asa stopping place for these visitors, Cass Lake is admirably situated and is the envy of all com- petitive neighbors. That town has the advantage and favor of J. J. Hill's railroad. He can and will bring pros- perity to the place. The Walkerites came to realize th‘'s important tact, and they proposed to leave nothing undone that might possibly result in the destruction of the town that threatened to leave them stranded on a sand bank an irredeemably deserted village. Walker is trying and forests Ir State Auditor Duun is responsi- ble for the comment in his paper, that Governor Lind and Public Ex- aminer Pope have beea influenced by political considerations in their ac- tion as to St. Paul banks, he has com- mitted a very unfair act.
