WooI i'm Politics.

WASHINGTON CITY, Feb. 21.-The advo.
Gates of the restoration Of the wool tariff are
very sure that the wool question is going to
cuta prominent figure in the coming presi
Dental election. II hardly want to be
quoted in this" said a very prominent DEM
ocrat, "but the fact is if this
congress refuses to restore the wool
tariff, we Democrats are beaten
next year. The Republicans are a great
deal smarter than we are in that sort of
thing. They see already how much the
party can gain by supporting the wool in
terests and its demands There are 1,020, 600
wool-growers in the country, and there are
probably 100000 votes. The Republicans
are encouraging them to make this demand,
and to organize politically for the CAM
paign, and to send men to the next
congress who will restore the tariff.
The Republicans are always watching for
these opportunities and reaching out far
ahead, and they are making much of this OPP
portunity to gain strength which will insure
their success this fall, and probably make the
next congress Republican unless we do some
thing for the wool-growers ourselves.

Praises given the report of the Rail-
road Commissioner are coupled with
criticisms. Here is a specimen para
graph from the Albert Lea Standard:
Railroad Commissioner Bakers report
is an able document, and fertile with
facts concerning the railroads and
their relations to the people, but it
does not show that he has officially
protested against the evils of which
he reports, nor thht he has attempted
to secure from the companies any of
the reforms that he shows are plainly
demanded. 1t is true that under the
impotent law, by which he holds
office, his epdeayors might prove to
be blank cartridges, but his official de-
mands would add much force to the
efforts being made by the press and
the people.

st. Paul Dispatch: The Democrats
who object to action Oh the tariff have
been asked to define the issue upon
which they will appeal to the country
to give them control of the govern
ment. Nothing but the vaguest ans
wers have been returned. They do
not dare to favor a repeal of the civil
service reform act; they are not agreed
upon policy in relation to the banks
and silver coinage; they are not de-
scided as to what should be done about
the internal revenue taxes. They
talk economy, but unite in rushing
through a 81, 100000 appropriation for
the Mississippi river. They pirate
about cleaning the Augean stable,n
while nearly every department con-
trolled by them in the chief city of
the country is reeking with corruption.
They denounce monopolies, and then
elect Standard oil man as Senator.
With an honest and courageous policy
for tax reduction, the Democrats will
have live issue for the Presidential
campaign. Without it they can only
repeat theirfutile clamor for a change.

OF the proposed Hudson Bay route
an old sailor, Capt. J. e. Steen says:
"The Hudson Bay route has been
navigated for over 200 years by sail
ing vessels. There is a record of 759
voyages in and out of the Bay, and
the proportion of shipwrecks is far
below that of the North Atlantic.
The record of the Hudson Bay Co.,
shows that vessels have gone in and
out of the straits every month in the
year. There are fewer rocks, reefs and
shoals on the coast line. The Hudson
Bay Co. now have linked in with the
Canada Pacific Ry., aud they trump
up stories of 200 years ago TO frighten
people from this region. The people
of Manitoba are not going to be fright
ened. We would like to see what a
steamship can do. If the Hudson
Bay Co. IS old rotten sailing vessels can
sail it every month in the year, we
think new iron steamship can stand
it. The ice which comes down in
June and July from the Arctic chan
mel, is not in icebergs or fields, but
broken chunks-waich to q steam
vessel would not be more than a
stream from a pump spout.
A. A. Ames of Minneapolis is moth
ing if not aggressive. For some time
the Minneapolis Tribune and Journal
have been keeping up hot fire upon
him and now he has pumped himself
down squarely before them as OH In
dependent candidate for Mayor. The
city must now repudiate him or en-
dorse his administration by re-electing
him. That many of his methods of
conducting the affairs of the city are
open to severe criticism, no one ac-i
quainted with the facts can deny, but

Gorden E. Cole is still at work to
bring about general high license and
to defeat prohibition. In recent
speech at st. Paul he said:
While I have no doubt that the di-
vinity which created the germ of al
cohol intended it to be used to pro-
duce the precise results which was
designed and fitted to produce, yet I
am equally willing to agree that side
by side with the flower in this, as is
true as to all other, he placed the thorn
and that an abuse of the gift will ac-
cording to natures irrepealable laws,
cause the beauties of the flower to
fade and the wounds inflicted by the
thorn to appear. Hence the traffic in
alcoholic beverages may be used and
ought to be under the strictest sur
veillance of law. The efficiency of a
law never depends upon its severity.
Very severe laws are seldom enforced.
BUTT depends upon the certainty
with which the prescribed punish
ment follows it's violation.
An exchange remarks: This is en-
phatically a young mans country.
Outside of the older sections, gray
haired men are seldom seen. The
great are young men from twenty-five
to forty years of age. They are men
of energy, push and ability. They
have come from every state from Iowa
to Maine, and they are as rule,
picked men.
The young men, with few excep-
tons who stay east are either those
who are "well fixed"-who are able
to step into some established business
or they are those easy-going fellows
who are afraid to venture away from
the place where they were born. One
does not find these fellows very often
in the New Northwest. These are
the ones, who if they do happen tc
come, get homesick and send fol-
money to return east.

The convention of farmers at Moor
head last week was we'll attended.
The next meeting will be in St. Paul,
March 18th, 10th, aud Goth. A gen.
eral INVITATION was extended to the
farm ers of North Dakota to attend the
meeting announced for st. Paul in

ded to those who had extended
courtesies during the meeting, ana
the convention adjourned about l
o'clock sine die. There is no doubt
that this meeting, as well as the others
held previously, will result in much
good to the farl uers generally. They
come together, and general aquain-
lance, conversation etc., gives them a

they are pleased with the attendance
and spirit evinced by the gathering,

ceasingly, regardless of politics fol
measures calculated to aid the farmer

Brookly n Eagle: The cumulative
power of money is fact very generally
known, but not generally appreciated.
There are few men living at the age of
seventy-five hanging on to existance
by some slender employment, or
pensioners, it may be, OH the bounty
of kindred Or friends, but might, by
exercising the smallest particle of
thrift, rigidly adhered to in the past
have set aside respectable sum which
would materially help them to main
tain their Independence in their old
age. Let us take the small and insig-
nificant sum Of five cents, which we
daily pay to have our boots BACKED,
to ride in car the distance we are
able to walk, or to procure bad cigar
we are better without and see what
its value is in the course of years.
We will suppose boy of fifteen, by
backing his own boots, or saving his
car fare, or going without his cher
ished cigarette, puts five cents day
in one year he saves $685., which be-
ing banked bears interest at the rate
offs per cent per annum, compounded
bi-yearly. On this basis, when our
thrifty youth reaches the age of sixty
five, having set his five cents per day
religiously aside during fifty years,
the result is surprising. He has ac-
cumulated no less q sum than $685.
II. A scrutiny of the progress of this
result is interesting. At the age of
thirty our hero had $685. at forty,
$s77; at fifty, $1,ee7; at sixty, 1882.
After fifteen years. saving his annual
interest more than equals his original
principals: in twenty five years it is
more than double; in thirty-fve years
it is eight times as much and the last
years. interest il is $3.50, or ten and a
half times as much as the annual
amount he put by. The actual cash
amount saved in fifty years is $912.50;
the difference between that and the
grand total of 3,s93.17-viz., 3d.
9SO.67, is accumulated interest.
What a magnificent premium for the
minimum of thrift that can be well
represented in figures!
