WADENA, Aug. 25.-I rise to a point of
order and for the correction of grave error.
1t has been affirmed again and again that God
made but ne political newspaper liar in the
northwest and that was the "pied press."
wish to here correct by inserting and the
Minneapolis Tribune. Not that that
paper by any means approximates to
that exalted position of systematic and bare
faced lying reduced to fine art which their
Minneapolis co-temp orary published in st.
Paul has attained, but for little liar, one who
copies after its pattern as the boy does after
the man, they do remarkably well.
Ever since the day when the defeated and
Disguised Norwegian infdel and his gang
of strikers bolted tn, Republican congresslon-
al convention at Detroit, and went out to the
tepee, and with fear and trembling like man
who is we'll aware that he is about to per-
form disreputable act and whose batter
nature revots from it), went through sham
form of nominating a candidate for congress,
initiating the "pied press" they have lost no
time in disappearing. the situation and of
heaping abuse upon tie regular nominee of
that convention.
By a system of stereotyped interviews and
generous drawing upon imagination where
the facts were wanting, both these papers
who ought to be leaders instead of liars, have
endeavored to manufacture a puclic SEN
timent which does not exist In SO far as the
Fifth district is concerned it can do little
harm, as the people have perfect kno Wedge
both OF the merits Of their candidate and the
infam%us means which are being resorted to
to defeat hin; but with the outside world
who are remote from the scene of action
they may perhaps deceive few.
The true state of facts concerning the split
in this district lies in this, that the young Re-
publicans, firing of the rule and dominion of
the corrupt ring who have for the past four
years held sway over northern Minnesota,
arose in their might and repudiated the ring
candidate and selected a man of their own
choice, one in whom they felt
confident they could put their trust.
When the ring had secured just seven dele.
gates to Detroit and the young independent
Republicans twenty-four, seeing that thew
were outgeneralec and eutnumbered, they be-
gan system of boiling at primaries and coun-
ty conventions such as has never been wit
messed in this or any other district, and which
eliminated in the final bolt at Detroit.
That Mr.. Kindred received the regular
| nomination no honest man for one moment
doubts, and were it not for outside influences
no other candidate would now appear, but en-
| couraged by the head center at Minneapolis,
who furnishes moral and financial support
a. fast as needed, they are making
beggarly attempt to bulldoze
the young Republicans and defeat them of
| their rights.
In all the entire district outside the Scan
dinavians' vote, which will always support
one OF their own clan, played out politicians
| and old political hacks whose influence and
standing with the people is thing of
the past, there are but very
few Americans who do not give their entire
and enthusiastic support to Mr.. Kindred. OF
the German Republicans he has also the entire
list, and indeed OF all Others who 90 to make
up the party who are not pandering to the
Norwegian influence for future Use he
has the most cordial and hearty support.
| Taking the district through by detail one can
scarcely fail to be convinced of the correctness
OF the statement, and ia spite of he lying
protestations of the two disreputable dallies
mentioned, it is plain to be seen that Kindred
is the coming man.
There can be no enthusiasm raised for
Democratic candidate as tbs majority of the
thinking men of the party see at once that
every vote cast for Democratic candidate is
just so much done towards electing the Nor
wegian, as that nationality vote solid and with
the help OF few who desire to court their
favor, expect to be able to control the election.
But the is too much good sense left
among the voters of this district to
allow the Washburn- Nelson ring to
succeed, and the disreputable newspaper hum
bugs that are laboring to destroy the char
acter OF man who never can be sunk to their
own level, had better take warning that the peo-
pie of northern Minnesota are about tired of
their personal abuse of Mr.. Kindred, and that
like the boomerang their oft repeated thrusts of
malice are sure to recoil upon their own
heads.
