RES a Ir Is noticeable that is the Republi- can papers that are worrying most over whether or not Towne will be nominated at Kansas City. They seem to think that in case he 1s not named for second place there will be arepetition of the Tom Watson inci- dent. They need not worry.

Ituinols, Indiana, Minnesota, Wis- consin and Michigan—these five states with their 74 electoral votes will be the great battle ground of the coming campaign. It 1s a significant fact that in these commonwealths the opposi- sion to the policy of the administration has been the most open and emphatic. Debatable territory at any time, this dissatisfaction with existing conditions |will make these states surely and safely Democratic. RUN ce etek WE bo not see by what system of calculation the Hannaites arrive at the conclusion that Minnesota is safely Republican.

It is generally supposed that in a presidential election the national ticket will pull a wavering state through for the g. o. p., but the policy of the present administration is just what will contribute most toward the defeat of anything labeled “Repub- licau” anywhere. Bo eee ee INTERVIzws given out by Senator C. O. Baldwiz of Duluth, would indi- cate that he would rather stay at home and practice law than go to congress. On several occasions, so it said, he has_ stated Seaphatieatiye that he aula not become a candidate. His fricnds claim, ' however, that should Towne receive the Kansas City nomination strongest man in the district—Towne excepted—but it he absolutely de- clines, another will be found to defeat Page Morris. ceria ais 2 PR RR | ‘Tue wishes of the people of Ken- 9, tucky as exemplified by their ballots will at last be respected: The United States supreme court has handed down a decision in which it refuses to reverse the verdict of the lower court in declaring Beckham governor. ‘fhe disgusting “system of intrigue and bribery followed by the Republicans in this memorable contest is without a parallel in the history of the country. They stopped at absolutely nothing in their efforts to overthrow their legally elected chief executive, even murder bemg laid at their door. The decision will be applauded by all lovers of justice, —_+0+—_—_ Hiepinc’s newspapers ought to be quarantined. They are at present wranghng over local affairs, and the language they are using toward one another isn’t a bit pretty. ‘They are rapidly fastening the impression on the outside world that their town is the wickedest place on earth anda decidedly undesirable community in which to live. The brothers should stop this kind of thing. A town like Hibbing cannot thrive 1f conducted on a strictly Puritanical plan, neither is it necessary for its existance that it should be a place of refuge for thugs and. gamblers. Now, each cf you fellows make a few concessions and be good. pak te EE ee Tue Republican party is getting ready to destroy the trusts and the trusts are getung ready to put up the forty millions of dollars that Mark Hanna believes it will be necessary to spend in order to retain the Republi- can party in power, Funny, isn’t it, that the trusts should contribute so wilingly and liberally toward their own destruction, but that’s what the Republicans press would have us be- lievé. People are not’ quite that easily deceived, however. They know that any time the Republican’ party starts a cruisade against trusts the latter will add parricide to their list of crimes and kill the Republican party. > Tuose who think that Towne 1s going to be gently sidetracked for the vice presidency at Kansas City are liable to be surprised. E. S. Corser, secretary of the Silver Republican national committee, says on this sub- ject: “The Minnesota delegation wiil come to the two national conventions with Towne wmitten on their backs and shining 1n their faces. So will the Silver Repubhcans and Populists from other states, ‘The national committee of the Populists will be here for a con- ference and will urge the candidacy of Towne, but we waut this fact em- phasized and understood: we will not endeavor to dictate a nomination to the Democrats, but illustrate through an object lesson why it is advisable to choose Mr. Towne,” ps atte yi oA WE HAYE no particular ambition to elevate the stage,.but we would lke to get the aid of the newspapeis around us in attempting to. elevate some of the theatrical troups that afflict this section. It is customary to herald the coming of a “show” by making a lot of announcements con- cerning its undoubted excellence, in payment for which the editor is al- lowed to go to the theatre and be tortured or disgusted, as the case may be, for aiv hour or two. It is a shame to thus assist a lot of frauds to deceive the public, and the press should quit t. There are means of finding out what kind of performers are coming, and the truth’ should be told about them. This would have a tendency to drive a lot of trash out of the theatrical profession and also to make managers more careful of what kind of attractions they booked. Let’s all quit helping thirty cent aggregations play to two hundred dollar houses— ch, fellows ? pete Se ‘Time was when Ignatius Donnelly was looked up to. by a large number* of people in the state of Minnesota.

Herald- Review considers him the Donnelly wants on palenae ana, and] several other things for which the pub- lic mind is not quite prepared incor- ‘ porated into a party’s declaration of principles, and unless he gets them he will bolt, notwithstanding the fact that a party advogating practically all that he demands might by united action win out. Heretofore his Mad Mulah tactics have made but littie difference, but this year the vote taken from the legitimate Democratic support by the impossible ticket headed by Barker and Donnelly may be the means of swinging close states like Minnesota and the two Dakotas into the Repubh- cancolumn. Thus isthe “sage” direct- ly aiding the cause of Impenalism, the money power and. the sundry other evils that he so vehemently denounces Donnelly can never again occupy the the ‘place in the estimation of the people of Minnesota that he once did. He is as unpopular as a poundmaster and as incincere as a Repuplican platform. ee SomMEHOw or other Towne’s nomi- nation for vice president is not receiv- ed with any remarkable degree of en- thusiasm in the Sixth district his 1s is not because of any lack of admira- ftion for Mr. ‘Towne personally,. but because there 1s a grave question as to whether or not it was political wisdom to nominate the Minnesotan on the same ticket with a Nebraskan. Many seem to think tat a more eastern man who has not been so outspoken concerning the issues on which the allied forces went down in ’g6, would better suit all concerned. A great many gold Democrats who would otherwise fall in line for Bryan will object to Towne. ‘*The Old Guard,” as these like to style themselves, ap- pear to think that they are stretching | their convictions quite a ways in order admission of Bryan, who has always been a Demo- to acommodate — the crat, and may buck absolutely oa Towne, who has trained with their hereditary enemies. It is not wise to antagonize men like Henry Watterson, David B. Hill, Wiliam L. Wilson, Burke Cochran and thousand of others of jess renown, and if they can be propitiate by a candidate other than ‘Towne being put up. at Kansas City, then we believe that the Minnesotan should and will withdraw. We are aware of the fact that this view 1s not a very popular one just now, but in the course of political events there are, times when it is a pretty good idea to use a little jadgment, . “THE RIGHT OF TAXING.” In 1770 the English duties upon American colony imports were all re- moved except 3 pence a pound on tea, which vas retained by express com- mand of King George III, who said: “There should always be one tax at least to keep up the right of taxing.” How perfectly this agrees with Pres- ident McKinley’s position when he changed his plan after his “plain duty” message deelaring that Porto Rico should have free trade! And how he whipped his party into’ his way of thinking! The only test to any question now before the Republican party is whether it is acceptadle to the syndicate surrounding Mr. McKinley. He speaks and the party cringes. Gov. Roosevelt was at the White decided that the governor had better not take the vice presidency but wait for the first place after Mr. Mckinley has his second term. he jub is farmed out far in advance by the poli- tical bosses, and the people have nothing to say except to join in the sentiment sure to be worked up dur- ing the next four years. The signal has already been given out from Washington, and the small bosses will soon begin to enthuse their fol- lowers: to hurrah for “Teddy”! The harmony of the Republican party is the harmony of eliminated individual- ity; it is the crunching of the ma- chine. The Republican who dares to question the policy of Mr. Me- Kinley is marked as a traitor and cut off from patronage. And so the great majority belong to the army of cowards and accept what is doled out by the bosses. The plain Republi- cans of theccuntry do not believe in Hanna's ascendancy, but he’sa_ boid man who dares to speak out against it.
