There is no end of witchcraft and de
ception. Years ago persons suspected of
the Strange infatuation" were thrown
into the water-if guilty of witchcraft
they would drown.
For many years the world was shocked
at such inhumanity of man to man, but
if we were to declare that people are per-
secuted to-day quite as remorselessly as
were the so-called witches of old, our
statements might be received with great
incredulity.
But it is fact.
Ifyou do not believe it, enter any one
of the schools of medical practice, and
attempt to use preparation which the
code does not recognize, or even to rec
ommend indirectly any popular remedy,
such, for instance, as Warner celebrated
kidney remedy, and then relate your ex-
perience. ...., ,
+ Then you'll admit the fact.
Let us be frank with you, reader. We
tell you that this is downright bigotry.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS.

The republican committee of the Fifth
district met at Fergus Falls on Thursday
of last week, for the purpose of fixing the
basis of representation, dates and places
for holding the two district conventions
one to select delegates to the Chicago
convention, and one to nominate candi-
date for congress. The appointment
was made to agree with that of the state
committee, viz: One for every $50 votes
or registration thereof, for the state tick
ct of 1886, as arranged from the official
canvass, each county to have at least
one representative. The delegateconven-
ton will be held at Crookston on May
18th, and the congressional convention
at st. Cloud on June 10Th. Two or
three members of the committee favored
putting off the nominating convention
until September urging that more than
sixty days time is necessary to bring out
all the prospective canvass, and that
June ~ would roll around before all who
would like to represent the district have
fixed up a respectable boom. Possibly
this NAV be the case, but any one who
cannot announce himsel for congress in
two months is hardly sudden enough in
his m movements to inset with favor in the
"bloodless Fifth" Speaking of the date,
the only poil. really at issue at the COM
mittee meeting the Fergus Falls Journal
remarks, and the Herald fully concurs:
The decision of the republican congress
sional committee of this district to hold
an early convention and fixing the time
at June IL was judicious move. While
we are of the opinion that it would be
much better for the community if the
question of who should succeed Mr. Nell
son had not been agitated until within
ninety days of the election, inasmuch as
the canvass for the nomination is in pro-
grsss, and has been for the past six
months the sooner it is over the better.
The people hardly get settled down to
business after an election before some one
begins to stir them up for the next. This
constant turmoil and ferlnent is detri-
mental to the material interest of the
people. Their attention is taken up and
time is wasted discussing matters which
ought not to receive attention for over
sixty days before election. But mas
much as the canvass has already been in
progress for long time the sooner it is
settled the better. The candidates in
this district, fortunately, are not profess
sion1l politicians. They are all men
busy with business and do not want to
waste their time in anything so unproft
able and distasteful to them as office
seeking. The people know them all and
they can just as well decide now as later,
which one they want. There are no pins
to be set up. The people can make their
choice as to who shall represent them
and the others can retire and go on with
their usual duties unhampered by po-
litical canvass on their hands.

plus in the Treasury estimated to reach
$40, 900, 900 on the 3Oth of June, 1888,
and the further increase thereof under
present laws, are menace to all business
interests, and direct incentive to waste
fulness and corruption in the appropri-
atoms of public money. The attention
of the people having been strongly drawn
to this subject bv the president in his last
annual message, the need of information
and popular enlightenment on questions
of revenue and taxation has been increas-
ingly felt in all parts of the country.

THE SAUK CENTRE HERALD, a hia1

THE SAUK CENTRE HERALD, a high
protective tariff paper, has this peculiar
reference to Hon. Knute Nelson and his
recent speech on the tariff question:
'All the talk about Mr.. Nelson being
out of harmony with his party arises
either from ignorance of his position or
of designing Misrepresentation. He was
never better exponent of true republi-
canisnl than heis to-day, and no apology
need he rendered for the political faith to
which he has given such pointed ex-
preston.
That is decidedly good! How was it
when he, of only four Republicans, voted
for the Morrison tariff bill? How can
Tie above he true, when, as yet, he is the
only republican in the house of repre-
scntatives who has stood up an attacked
TIE present system of "protection?" And
how will it lie when he votes for the
Mills bill, as he certainly will do, when it
is slightly modified. If Mr.. Nelson was
an exponent of true republicanism" the
country would not now be suffering from
the evils of high tariff, and the United
States treasury would not contain hun
dreds Of millions of dollars which should
lie in circulation.-St Cloud Times
How it would be possible to crowd in
to one item of the above length larger
number of misstatements and inaccu-
racies it would be difficult to imagine
To begin with, the HERALD is not, and
never has been, thigh protective tariff
paper" but it is in favor of tariff that
shall merely protect, and nothing more;
on the other hand it has frequently de-
clared against a prohibitive tariff.
Again, Mr.. Nelson did not vote for the
Morrison bill, but did vote to take it up
in the house for consideration, but did
not pledgeit his affirmative vote thereby.
The Morrison bill was lost through
democratic votes. Mr.. Nelson has not
attacked protection, but distinctly de-
clares i'll its favor. He wants a revision,
reduction and equalization of the tariff.
and to that the republican party is COM
United, and make this prediction-the
republican party will give such bill to
the nation by virtue of majority in the
house, as in the senate. The democrats
have for years been in the ascendency in
the house and has failed to furnish such a
bill, or any other legislation of value
touching finance. The revenues of the
country are administered to-day on re-
publican lines, laid down when conditions
were different, aud the democratic ma
jority has not even modified the laws to
adopt them to the altered condition of
affairs. The democrats, had their ability
to handle great financial questions been
commensurate with their opportunity,
would have provided some wise means
for relieving the treasury of its surplus.
The fact that such surplus exists to the
detriment of business interests is direct
reflection upon the democratic majority
in the house of representatives.
