DEMOCRATIC DOCTRINE.


The platform upon which Speaker CAR
| Tuesday is perhaps the clearest, as it is the
most correct, declaration of Democratic
principles respecting the tariff that has yet
been promulgated by political eonven-
ton. The fact that Mr.. CARLISLE was
enthusiastically renominated by aeelama-
ton and was present to accept the nomina-
ton in neat little speech, makes it fair to
presume that if he was not the author of
the platform it at least embodied his ind-
vidual opinions. and is a fair expression of
his views. Inasmuch as Mr. CARLISLE is
recognized as the Democratic leader in cou-
gress, the platform may be accepted as the
Democratic doctrine. 1t declares that there
is no warrant in the federal constitution for
the eXactiOn from the people of more than
is reasonably necessary for an economical
administration of the government and ''all
in excess of that need is spoliation, not
legal taxation" Here is the whole Demo
cratic doctrine in nutshell. All revenues
collected from the people in excess of the
actual need of the government is spoliation
and not legal taxation. Such is the doctrine
of the national Democracy, as it is the
doctrine of the Minnesota Democracy, and
upon that platform RICE and WILSON and
MACDONALD and BULLS all stand and
ask to be elected to congress. In explana-
ton of its position the CARLISLE platform
goes on to say that the interests of the
| people at large demand that such reform or
reconstruction of the tariff laws should be
| adopted as will equalize the burden of tax
alton in that form and reduce the income
| from that source to the actual needs of the
government economically administered. 1t
| declares that excessive taxation, even when
successful, is ultimately destructive of the
| sources of labor from which it is dra WI.
| In the enactment of tariff laws it claims
that congress should at all times have in
view the raising of revenue rather than the
fostering OF any particular industry at the
expense of others, taxing the luXuries rather
than the necessaries of life, the
duty and power of the federal gov
eminent extending only so far as to
impose a tax for the purpose of raising
revenue for public purposes. The govern
ment is never better administered and it's
| true spirit is never better observed than
when the peoples taxation for its support
is scrupulously limited to the actual neces-
sty of expenditure and distributed accord
ing to just and equitable plan. Believ-
| ing in the JEFFERsoNIAN maxim that "the
best government for the people is that
which governs least" the Democratic
party instructs its representatives that they
carefully and faithfully observe the consti-
tutional limitation the people have put
upon them. That is why it Is safer to
send Democrats to congress than Repub-
licans. They go there educated in the doc
trine of constitutional limitation.

AN IMPORTANT ENTERPRISE.

Chicago is becoming very thoroughly and
properly frightened over the grand future
that awaits the Minneapolis, Sault Ste
Marie & Atlantic railway. Her fears are
very well grounded. for the completion of
the road threatens to wrest from the city
by the lake large portion of the traffic
supremacy which she has long maintained,
and will render the Northwest no longer
tributary to her. That her commercial in
terests are being thus endangered, and that
with her decadence will occur the growth
of st. Paul and Minneapolis as still greater
trade centers, Chicago understands full
well. The completion of the new line will
give the Northwest direct line to tide
water 400 miles shorter than any line now
existing, and less, even, than any road now
entering Portland. Boston or even New
York. This means, of course, that Chi
cago will no longer hold the trade
and traffic which it now COM
pels, but that the Twin Cite
will be the distributing as we'll as the for
warding center. Not only will the through
business of the NJ, st. NJ. q A. road
and its Canadian connections be enormous,
but it will traverse country which is
capable of affOrding the richest kind of
local support, and which alone would
render the road profitable undertaking.
The main point is, however, that st. Paul
and Minneapolis would control the trade of
all this country. and the Twin Cities would

AN HONEST CONFESSION.

An honest confession is good for the
soul. and the Dispatches spiritual being
must be in a good deal better keller after
its frank avowal that the nomination OF
the whole Republican state ticket, with
one exception, was the direct result of the
wheat rings manipulations. The Dispatch
is rock ribbed. iron-clad Republican jour-
nal that expresses faith in the election OF
its party ticket, but it can't tell falsehood
about the manner in which the ticket was
nominated. 1t owDs right up that the
wheat ring controls the whole business.
Now, if the other Republican papers would
only be seized with similar fit of honesty,
there might be some hope yet of repairing
''the grand old party" But they wont.
Having sworn that the horse is seventeen
feet high. they are going TO stick to it.

HEATHEN SALVATION

The missionary convention at Des Moines
is going to discuss and determine the ques-
ton whether the heather can be saved
without conversion. If it should be de-
cided in the affirmative, it will follow that
there has been great deal of money wasted
in foreign mission work. 1t Is pretty big
subject, anyway, for the church militant to
tackle and the wisest thing to do is to
leave the decision of the question to the
Almighty, where it belongs.

HERE'S THE PROOF.

Tn its maudlin wrath on account of the
exposure of Mr.. LovELY's record, the Plo-
peer Press of yesterday gives vent to the
following choice language:
The plan of the campaign is neither ingen-
inns nor reputable. The Democratic press OF
the district. following the lead Of the st. Paul
GLOBE, which takes first place in this dirty
work. circulates with daily repetition con-
rlomeration of all the campaign lies against
Mr.. LOVELY which depraved political mag
lns+ion can suggest. These, in uauseous
broadsides or in petty dribletS of abuse, are
poured into the ears of all who will read the
vile STUFF. There is no pretense Of regard Tor
truth or decency. The only hope is, by brazen
f1uuudeuce and constant iteration. to make
few voters here and there believe that ME-
LOVELY is unworthy. A review OF these
FLANDERS. as collected in Wednesdays GLOBE
finds in them a holiness and versatility OF
l,-inv which has seldom or never been equaled
in the politics of the state. A first task is TO
represent that Mr.. LOVELY is unpopular with
the people of his district. The same might
he said. with about as much truth, of KNUTE
NELSON or EDMUND RICE. In host OF cam
paigns it has been proved that no pOlltlclan
is more respected in his own community, or
can command more enthusiastic following
where he is best known than JOHN A. LOVELY
This leading lie, of which mis- detractors never
tire. is the one IN behalf of which there is not
q word. sign, whisper of evidence.
Coming from a journal which makes a
business of ransacking dens of iniquity in
search of material to construct calumnies
against Democratic candidates. the style of
literature found in the above quotation is
really amusing. But in order that our
contemporary may understand that the
GLOBE is not in the habit of firing artillery
until it is well loaded, we give below a
letter written by the president of the
Female college located at Albert Lea, the
home OF Mr.. LOVELY, from which the
Pioneer Press can judge for itself whether
or not there is ''a whisper of evidence" in
behalf of the charges that have been made,
and the public can determine in what de-
gree of respect Mr.. LOVELY is held in his
own community, as we'll as what ''the
enthusiastic following" the Pioneer Press
speaks of amounts to. Prof. ABBOTT is a
man too well known in Southern Mime
sofa as a gentleman whose veracity can
not be impeached, and whose sterling
qualities of character cannot be assailed, TO
need introduction or Endorsement in this
connection. The letter is published with
out the betrayal of private confidence. and

When President Cleveland answered GER

regarding the present state canvass is to sup

knows that the McGill ticket, with the excep-
ton of Jones for clerk of court, was the work
of rings, of which the Minneapolis wheat
monopoly was chief; and inasmuch as the
Republican ticket is certain to be elected

element of the parry chargeable with being
liars as well as ringsters? The Dispatch be-
lieves that not only good policy, but descent

TIME AND DISTANCE.

Why drives yon cabmen ever on
So rapidly in dauntless fight?
He's here one moment and he's gone
The next away, far out of sight.
Why, tell me why he hurried hence
With u restless, hurried pace.
Gle has accepted so cents
To drive one to certain place.
And why does yonder cabman creep
So slowly through the busy throng?
His fiery steed is half asleep
And like a snail he moves along.

Yet on he crawls with listless pow'r.

His cab is chartered by the hour.)

black paints are put on with sticks and the

ALERT LEA COLLEGE

ALBERT LEA, Mimi, Oct 4, 1885. }
Dear Sir: In reply to your letter of a re-
cent date in regard to JOHN A. LOVELY, my
opinion is that he possesses no real fitness for
congress. either in intellectual ability or po-
HticaI knowledge or moral character. He Is
not church member, makes no pretensions
Rs to religion and in regard to temperance
and general morality his life has been such
that most church members and reputable
people will not support him. A gentleman
said to me recently: II may vote for LOVELY
for the sake of the party, but it will be the
bitterest pill l ever swallowed Such I be-
lieve to be the general sentiment of honora-
bic men wherever he is known. He is not the
choice of the Republican party. 1t is safe to
say that hardly one man in ten in this district
would vote for JOHN A. LOVELY as his first
choice for congress. Yours truly,
r. B, ABBOTT.

handful from the box. spreads them out

what you want he returns the remainder to
