and Democrats in the Second district unite

shows the injustice and fraud of the present
tariff and makes that q leading issue. In the
Fifth district Knute Nelson agrees with the
Democrats on that question. John Il. Gil
fillan alone is an advocate Of protection.
This question underlies the labor problem.
and is the leading issue. There should be a
tariff reform club in every town in the state,
and the issue brought home to every voter
by practical, earnest speakers raising logical
arguments based on stubborn facts and
figures would earnestly call the attention
of our local managers to the necessity OF
bringing this question before the people

was peggiug away for dear life. O'Brien, VINO
was the second baSeman, pretended to eaten
an imaginary ball, and the runner, in desper-
alton, made u dive for the base that threatened

dirt and dust he was somewhat chagrined TO
notice that the ball was several hundred
yards distant.
