We pledge a continuance of this enlightened policy, eflicient administration and ‘fidelity to the people when the candidates of the democratic party are again summoned to serve the state. The state’s law forbidding merger of com- peting railroads should be enforced, and that in every case; and the state’s neglect power to regulate rates should be exercised as the prime remedy for discrimination and extortion. The readjustment of our tux laws is an absolute necessity with which the present ‘administration has proved its incomperency to deal. ‘We adopt the clear and Intelligent program submitted by the democratic minority in the Tate session, the taxation of non-resident cor- porations equally with domestic, the ade- quate taxution of public service corporations und the taxation of incomes and we favor the amendment of the constitution to that end. We favor the municipal ownership of public service corporations, the principle of direct legislation and home rile in local taxation. We believe that the iaterests of labor can best be conserved by organization, and we demand for every man who labors an equal use of aI] natural opportunitios to the end that no man shall take the proceeds of another's labor without full compensatiion therefo: We ure in favor of the observance of a general eight-hour work day, and that, all printing done for and supplies purchased by the state of Minnesota shall bear the union label, and pledge our SED HORS to organized labor in its efforts for securing the same. We would correct the errors in the law establishing the stete board of control, We recommend to the voters the adoption of the proposed law, whose submission to the people w sured by the persistent eiferts of the Lind administration. for the increase of the railroad gross eurning stocks. We favor the election of United States senators by direct vote of the people, and the election tothe senate orly of men pledged to that reform. We condemn the failure of the present state administration to enforce the Jaw againstethe merger of the Iron Range rail- roads. We condemn the surrender of the state rail- road and warehouse commission to the United States stecl trust in giving up the state’s jurisdiction over railroads wholly within its borders and abandoning the just rates ordered by the preceding commirsion. to the prejudice of the state’s interest in the sehool lands. We condemn the failure of the board of con- trol to conserve the efficiency of the state in- stitutions, and we abhor the theory that the public schools which are fundamental to the life of the republic, are charitable insti- tutions. condemn the administration for con- the state binding twine plant into an auxiliary of the cordage trust. We condemn the Minnesota congressman for their failure to promote legislation to strengthen the powers of the interstate com- merce commission, und we regret that sub- serviency to privileged greed should compel our United States senators to vote for the iniquitious subsidy. DEMOCRATIC CONGRESSIONAL PLATFORM. Against the doctrine enunciated by the managers und standard bearers of the Ke- publican organization, as expressed in their epecthes ot the past few days. to the effect that the tariff shall not be revised even to the extent of the removal of tariff protection from the trusts, thé Democracy of Minnesota, as of the nation at large, takes direct and positive issue. We stand upon the Democratic doctrine, thut the tariff laws of this country should not be a source of protection and subsidy to the trusts that are oppressing the spoon! le. both workingmen and consumers alike. The ap- plication of the plain and simple fundamental principles of “equal rights to ull and special privileges to none” cannot do injury to any legitimate American interest, and it is the violation of that law, on the other hand, that to-day makes the American people, and mort of all the American workingmen, the political and industrial subjects of corporate control, When the so-called “infant industries” have become million-dollar and billion-dollar trusts; when they have risen to the svature and power that they not only overcome foreign competition abroad, but defy the American people at home; when, protect- ed by the turiff laws enacted for their protection, they make use of them to tax the American peoplo 25—per cent to 100 per cent higher than they levy upon the consumers abroad; when. protected by these tariff laws, they oppress labor and even deny it the common right of organization; when the taxes levied by them upon the necessaries of life far exceed in volume and hardship all the direct taxes levied for the support of the government; when, in order to maintain this unjust tax power, they exercise all the power which capitul and business. influence can command to dominate congress and the national administration, and now after an era of the highest and most liberal protection ever known to the history of nations, they announce through the leaders and mauagers of the party in power that the tariff cannot and shall not even be revised—we submit, in the name of Democracy and in the name of the people regardless of party or class, that it is time that the government ceased to be their shelter and instrument of extortion, and that the trust, like the common citizen, submit to the universal principle of “equal rights to all and special privileges to none.” Railroad Talk. Among the railroad possibilities of the near future is said to be a new hne to be built by the Great Northern system, from Grand Rap- ids, in Itasea county, to Hibbing, in St. Louis county, a distance of about thirty miles. A few years ago a railway line between these two points was not thought of, but it is claimed that with the recent explorations for iron ore on the western end of the Mesa- ba range, the Hall interests have been giving the matter ofa new line between the two points mentioned more than passing attention. 3 During the past season there has been a large amount of exploratory work in the region between Hib- hing and Grand Rapids. The sap- plies to the various camps have been going in both by the way of Hib- bing ard Grand Rapids, but the larger part from Hibbing for the reason that there is a better wagon road from that point. The new town of Naskwauk, which it is believed will eventually . FOR JUDGE OF PROBATE—COURTNEY A. BUELL. AN OLD RESIDENT, FREEHOLDER AND TAXPAYER. y i J large ore bodies between Nashwauk and Grand Rapids are excellent. The Hill interests are doing a great deal of the exploratory work on the western range northeast of Grand Rapids, while there are sev- eral drills being worked by con- tractors for other people, whose names do not appear in connection with the work. Besides the mining operations for the Hull interests, under the direction of W. W. Browne. A. W. Thompson and W. A. Brotherton, Cole & McDouald, Fletcher Bros. & McDonald and other contracting concerns are dril- ling for other parties. . The proposed line between Hib- bing and Grand Rapids would give the two places railroad connection about eighteen or twenty miles shorter than the preseut route by the way of Swan River. The territory that would be op- ened by the proposed line has very little timber standing, most of it having been cut off during logging operations of previous years. While the new road, if it is build, would be mainly for the ore business, it is claimed that some of the contigu- ous territory is valuable for farm- Ing purposes and would be devel- oped rapidly were the new line to be built. If the Gr2at Northern builds the proposed new line north and east of Grand Rapids, which it is claimed to be quite certain that. it will do in the event that ore pro- positions turn out as well as expect- ed, it will have three branches to the range. One branch, the ‘‘cut- off” ore road, runs from Stony Brook junction to Ellis and then to Hibbing, and the other, the old Wright & Davis road, now used for passenger service and for the return of the empty ore cary, runs from Swan River to Hibbing. The Stony Brook cut off was finished and put into use last year.—Duluth Herald. : May Go to Duluth. Senator ©. ©. McCarthy, of Grand Rapids, is seriously consid- ering taking up his residence in Du- luth. This will be interesting news in a political way, for he has been mentioned more than once as a con- gressional possibility. He was strongly urged to become a candi- date for the Republican nominatioi for Congress this fall, but declined. He is not a candidate for the state senate this year, but it is believed that he has further political ambi- tions. “Yes,” said Senator McCarthy last evening at the St, Louis, ‘I have been thinking of removing to Duluth for some time. Duluth is a growing city, and is always going to be a busy and important center. The law business of the northern part of the of the state will natural- vK., by Swigert No. The crops in our section heve not fully matured.” Senator McCarthy says that J.
