SARE ead PUES Ee “This is a year of Democratic op- ‘portunity,” says the Grand Rapids Herald Review, “the brightest in the recent history of the party’ Even ethe year that Cleveland defeated Harrison didn’t look half so aus- picious.” Pessimism was never a “feature of Democrats.—Duluth News “Tribune. ABOUT TARIFF REFORM. Our republican friends have a pleasing method of presenting Demo- -eratic issues as they think that the public ought to see them, which excites innoeentj,amusement. With the greatest air of good faith they will print one series of articles tell- ing how helpless Democracy will be in case something happens, and another tu tell how paralyzed it will be in case that something dees not happen, and then triumphantly ex- claim, ‘There you are.” It is a method of campaigning that worked fairly well in a day ef greater public ignorance that prevails at present. but we are inclined to think that just now it is productive of more hilarity that practical effect. is By way of example: Republican newspapers in general, and thuse of Minnesota in particular, have been harping for along time fast upon that they were pleased to call “free trade.” They drew out the ancient and departed fraud, believing that Unere might be, as was said of the bloody shirt long ago, ‘‘another president in it.’ They told every body that the Democratic party was absolutely committed to free trade. They nave deen quoting from John Sharp Williams and Bourke Cockran and a lot of other leaders tu that effect, and seriously advising the American people that as far as the tariff was concerned this election would involve simply and solelya choice between the Republican policy of standpad and the alleged Dem- ocratic policy of absolute and un- equivocal free trade. They are not the least embarrassed ‘by the necessity which the St. Louis platform imposes upon them of whirling instantly to the right about, ‘These very same organs are now tell- ing us daily that there can be no Democratic tariff reforfm at all be- cause the influences behind Judge Parker will not permit it. ‘Tariff revision, they say, would meet the same fate that it did under Cieve- land, and the people might just as well adjust their galled shoulders to the yoke they now bear, because Democratic success could not re- move it or make it rest more easily. We rather like this form of argu- ment. it shows an enemy with an uneasy concience. It demonstrates Uhe nature and the terrible anxiety of Republicans on the tadiff issue. ‘They know well that the people will not stand fur the infamous robbery to which they are now subjected in behalf of the monopolies and trusts. They know that the people are turn- ing to the Democratie party as their one hope of relief from such oppres- sion. They know ethat the Demo- cratic party was never in such good shape us it 1s today to accomplish a practical and satisfactory reduction .of the tariff. They know that on this subject the old extremes of opinion in Democracy have disap- peared, just as they are vanishing with regard to the currency. There is no Democrat today who would take the position taken by Sam Randall that the tariff is a good ‘thing in and of inself, and protec- tion a blessing. There is no Dem- ocrat of standing aud influence who would take the position that free trade ought to be immediately ac- complished. The entire Democracy is practically united on the position that there should be a_ material, gradual and steadily progressive re- duction of tariff duties. We must collect sonie customs for revenue. That amount is ample and more than ample for all the protectiou that will ever again be needed in this country. ‘Tariff reform is simply a question of honesty and economy looked at through Democratic eyes, instead of a question of favoritism, trust build- ing and boodling as looked at through Republican. That is the difference between the two parties as relating to the tariff, and.it is zoing te be one of the most potent factors in this year’s campaign.—St. aul Globe. - This warm. weather, suggests ice Iream.

Mr. Allen was in West Virginia, Georgia, and Tennessee last fall looking over the timbered districts in those states and speaks of the timbers and lumber- ing facilities in an approving manner He is thinking of moving into that regton and go after soine of it. The rear of the Billy Rogers log drive, out of Swift river a tributary of Boy river-in the southern part of Cass county got to this point last Thursday.

Mr. Skiy re- newed old acquaintences at this point and incidentally took in the sights which now exists here, (20 years ago the same being his usual camping ground.) Among Mr, Skiy’s many and old time friends can be men- tiuned; Billy Robby, Archie Jonn- son, Kay Ward and Mr. Sterling. After Mr. Skiy and family and Miss Skiy got settled on Joe Gould point a barren spot Mr. Skiy’s nu~™erous friends of the fast fading past called upon him and his family among the many were the above quartette. i! your memory is medium you can eastiy recall that about 1: p. m. las¢ Sunday a storm was eminent, Mr. Skiy and his family took council with above quartette and concluded to move camp to a more sheltry part which was immediately undertaken. ‘There was an immediate scramble ‘to get household effects together and the family.

Jolson was second and bursted the canoe and scattered the bouillon over Robby’s Sunday clothes Ward dodged but rolled down an embankment and reported shy two sacks of muskrat skins~ ‘The storm at this juncture was raging as only storms can and above quartette came the clinched fist of his mght ‘arm in search of White’s solar plexis a well planned “duck” on the part of White White’s nghteye. About this time White yelled tor hts slugging associ- ate, Michaud. but John Nelson held him out of the game, stopped the fight and ordered both the would-be sluggers off the premises: ‘hey va- moosed in good order. The next morning White was around town and was busy keeping a big quid of chew- ing tobacco and a pipe in the right hand side of his face to preserve the equilibrium of his head, the left jaw about the shape of a musk- melon and the right optic discolored, Owen Skelly and his sisters, Lizzie and Annie, of this place, John Jones and Mrs Jones, of Deer River, and M.
