VOTING: MEN AND MONEY,

When the fools die the millennium will
come. Voting men and money, by the
Minnesota Legislature is about as absurd a
proposition as could DO well conceived. The
surplus money in our State treasury would
not arm boys enough to take muskrat

peace. AS an Agricultural State We can
feed the consbatants and we want the money
Of beth sides. 'ttS

Representatives in Congress to submit some
proposition, looking to q solution of on,
national difficulties, to the people, tor thci,
