John Lind. columns The Globe good deed or misdeeds, and for that reason reproduces the Journal’s charges in the hope that Gov. Lind will furnish some explanation of them. The first of the Journal’s charges 1s that Gon. Lind 1s deeply concerned in the solution of the prison labor problem. He wants to learn the best method of keeping the convicts in state penal mmstitutions employed with- out working an injury to free labor, and with the object of acquiring the latest information on the subject he has pring and Summer Suitings Are now in and ready for ingpeatipa: The samples we are showing this year are tho latest man@actures of America and Europe and there are thousands of them to select from in. all shades, styles, patterns, prices and weights.

Call and see us before ordering. PEOPKE & appointed a prison labor commission to investigate the subject. From the Journals point of view, the governor is very much to blame for concerning himself over the prob- lem of protecting free labor from con- vict competition and yet at the same time treating the convict justly and not maintaining him in idleness, to his moral and physical deteriment. The second charge brought by the Journal against Gov, Lind is that the state railroad commission, acting pre- sumably upon _ his has formulated the regulation of railroad rates, and that the prosposed system is bad—essen- tially bad. After reading the Jour- nal’s charges, the questions that will suggest themselves to every thinking man are: “Why should the governor bother his head as to weather or not the railroads are charging the people higher rates than necessary?” and, \Why should he trouble the railroads with proposals for improving their sys- tems of making charges, in the inter- ests of the people of the state?” It is due to the Minneapolis Journal that Gev. Lind should make explanation suggestions, a distance tariti for Hotel Gladstone A. E. WILDER, Prop. FIRST-CLASS IN EVERY RESPECT. sx atk bad Sample Room and Livery in Connection.

Lind 1s concerning himself about the better protection of game and the more rigid enforcement of the game laws. The governor appears to be laboring un- der the idea that the fish and game in | Minnesota are to be.preserved for the and not for a favored few—and furth- er, that they should not be wantonly destrayed or raided by pot-hunters from this state or neighboring states. That, in fact, the game is a natural sumption of all the people of Minn. esota, and to make the supply steady and permanent the ‘fish and game should be properly and efficiently pro- tected, and that the legislature should appropriate a sufficient amount of Manufacturer of Fine Cigars é GRAND RAPIDS, MINN. ‘sé T1)? 99 Have achieved an excellent BOOTH S CIGARS reputation all over Northern .

These are singular ideas to receive the attention of the chief executive officer of the state—an officer who issworn to see that the interest of | the people are protected, and that the laws are upheld and observed, At least. so the Minneapolis Journal seems to think, and it therefore charges Gov. Lind with taking up these questions for political purposes. The fourth charge is that Gov. Lind| * secured the appointment of Capt. Compton, a life-long Republican, to succeed Maj. McMillan, another life- long Republican, as commandant of| by ‘usts. the state soldiers’ home. The Journal charges that this was done to secure a|ing, eating or drinking, working or political advantage for the Democratic | Playmg, living or dying, and the party, but just how such advantage. coffin trust gets you in the end.—/j} is obtained, the Journal does not clearly | Duluth Herald. state, beyond the fact that “Gov.

These are the Journal’s charges, which it declares are “Lind’s Political Moves.” With all due deferences to the wis- dom of the exceedingly sapient gentle- man who operates the Journal’s “charges” factory, the Globe is of the opinion that the people of Min- nesota will not be deeply shocked over the activity and interest displayed in the directions and matters indicated by the Journal. If there is any polit- icaladvantage to be obtained by a governor in concerning himself over the interests and affairs of the people | of a state, he isjustly and fairly entitled to such advantage, and the people in all probability, will not express | great dissatisfaction with such manmif- welfare.—St. Paul Globe. FREED FROM COLONIALISM. Surprising news has come from Spain. Prosperity, instead of ruin, has come to the Spaniards as a_ result of the war with this country. ‘he No longer drained to {news runs ‘thus: * ot her maintain a ‘colonial empire, and free from the | of $100,000,000 which it was costing to retain the colonies, Spain 1s prospering. The ;government asks for a loan of $200, 000,000, and theSpanish people sub- scribe $600,000,000. New factories are being built, even electric cable works; electric traction is being intro- duced in the Spanish cities; and at Madrid, such is the increased activity in business and travel, two fine new modern hotels are to be built at once. Every improvement known to mod- ern hotels will be introduced. Today Spain, once more thriving, is buying heavily of machinery and sending large orders to the United States,” And the burden which has been re- moved from the shoulders of the Spanish people the McKinley ad- ministration would put upon this country. The expensive colonial system is part of the Republican | party’s imperialistic program. It means that the whole country is to be taxed heavily to enable a few capital- ists to make money by trading in colonial franchises.— Duluth Herald. qpicienseeel tee ame WHAT THE TRUSTS HAVE DONE. young men jannual expense Here are a few of the reasons why the “plain people” are not inclined to meekly accept the inspired statements of the trust organs and _ speakers, showing what a natural necessity and beneficent institution the trust It requires 50 per cent more of wheat to buy a stove than it did in 1896. | It requires twenty bushels more of corn to buy a wagon now than it did in 1896, It requires roo per cent more corn or wheat to buy a copper kettle than in 1896.
