REPRESENTATIVE WHITE of Indiana

the proof-reader may have in their
minds eye some female which is not a

true, the argument of every protec-

sufficient capital to invest in any of
the protected industries very short
route to immense wealth. To the

capital than brawny hand and a
willing heart to toll for that which
is necessary to keep soul and body

POINTER ON BLANKETS.

About those woollen blankets
a'ought by Secretary Endicott for
Yankee Soldiers" to sleep under,
which the Tribune wants to know
what the people think about: Secre.
tary EndicOtt advertised for 1000
white, all wool, stwilled blankets for
hospitals" just as the medical depart.
ment always does, and he awarded
the contract to the lowest bidder.
Mr.. Mckinley takes issue with the
Secretary right here, in his famous
<'protection speech in Congress. He
thinks, possibly because there Is q
surplus of money on hand, that the
peoples money ought to be wasted in
order to prove our patriotism"
There are plenty Of such patriots
WHO squeeze their own pennies pretty
hard but are lavish with the peoples.
The lowest bid for the best blankets
was for English blankets, j,.st as in

BLAINE FALlACY.

Mr.. Blaine seems determined to
admit no other issue than that be-.
tween free trade and protection. Well,
suppose the free-traders adopt the
protection style of argument, and
taking England as the representative
Of fiee-trade, pure and simple, put it
something like this: The population
of the United Kingdom in 1910 was
% IL millions; in 1873, "a millions.
In 1910 foreign trade amounted to
liz millions of pounds sterling; in
1873, 615 millions. Revenue in 1910,
SO millions; in 1878, 81 IL millions.
Deposits in savings banks. consisting
mostly of individually small deposits
in government institutions, in 1910,
"a l-2 millions; in 1878. 76 millions.
Suppose they could show-and they
can, from cold ,unsympathetic figures,
that pauperism and crime had greatly
diminished, proportionately, and then
argue that all these results flowed
without exception or special reference
to surrounding conditions from free
trade, would they not have stronger
position than those " ho assume that
our young country, with lands yet
for unborn millions, with resources
inexhaustible, held its proud position
to-day solely on account of pro
lection, so called. Rather, do we
hold, that our position is main
tanned in spite Of that species of pro.
lection which singles out the few
favored ones as beneficiaries of the
masses, handing over millions of
dollars Of taxes which do not go
through the form, even, Of passing
through the national treasury. and
accumulating other millions which
are unneeded for the conduct of gov
ernm ent On the most liberal scale.
Mr.. Blaine and his party are Bour.
bons. They do not forget, neither do
they learn.

History Repeating itself.

AS somebody said only recently:
'History is repeating itself every ten
minutes" and this tariff discussion is
a case IN point. Mr.. Blaine, in his
work IT Senty years of Congress,
referring to the first tariff discussion
following the organization of Wash
ingtons administration, notes the
use then of the same arguments-''in-
fant1 manufacturer s"-"fostering care
of the government nt''-''promotion of
home Industry ry"-'diversi6ed pur.
suits labor in Europe
that season the utterances Of states
men to-day. Eighteen years ago
D nnell was trying to straddle the
question as he and Lind are awkward
ly doing to-day. Railroad. commits
sioner Austin-then Governor, was
attempting TO divert attention from
the burning tariff question to the
alleged extortions of railway conf pa
nies, just as some of the farmers
alliance managers and that recent
republican congressional convention
at st. Cloud are trying to do to-day.
How much longer must the people
endure the scourge of mOnopolists!
When will the thinking men of
Minnesota recognize the false pre-.
tences of republican claims, and vote
to inaugurate an era of equal rights
and justice to all! Our forefathers
denounced George the Taird ''for
cutting off our trade with all parts Of
the world" How much longer will
Minnesota endorse u system of pro-
tection which claims big wages and
plenty Of work for labor by restrict
ing production to a home market
whose wants would not employ half
its time!

ABUSING NELSON.

If it was not refined, still it was =
somewhat expressive way the Prin-
ceton Union took to express it's hatred
for knute Nelson when it said: ''If
the salvation of the Republican party
depends upon such men as he, then
we say damn the Republican party"
Considering that the gravamen Of
Mr.. Nelson's offeEse lies in his vote
for tariff reform measure, and that
the Union is a representative organ
OF the Republican party. the fair
inference is that tariff reformers are
not wanted In the Republican party
in this state, and their votes are not
solicited by Republican candidates.
The farmers of Minnesota will do we'll
to make a note of this. In the main
they agree with Mr.. Nelson IN his
tariff views, and if the leaders of the
Republican party invoke damnation
upon their party in case it has to de.
pend for support upon the tariff re-
form wing OF the party, then the
sooner these farmers get out of the
party the better it will be all around.
There are but few, if any. Of our
Scandinavian population who do not
support Mr.. Nelson in his gallant
fight for tariff reform. and if their
support of the brilliant leader whose
name is an honor to Scandinavian
nationality is so offensive to the Re-
publican bosses as to make them wish
themselves damned rather than be
subjected to such association, then it
is time that the Scandinavians were
preserving their self-respect by
marching in body right out of the
Republican camp.
The Democratic party is the natural
home of the tariff reformer. He has
no abiding place elsewhere. The Re.
publicans despise him. and will make
him feel awfully uncomfortable it he
fingers around their highly protected
shanty. The way they ale treating
Knnte n elson is an illustration of it.

THE WINNING TICKET,

Last Wednesday the democratic
convention assembled in st. Paul to
nominate the ticket that shall fight
for the peoples rights in the great
political contest now engaging, that
victory may perch upon the demo
cratic banner when the contest closes
on the sixth day of next November.
And this is the ticket they put in the
field: For governor, Eugene NJ. vii
son, of Hennepin county; lieutenant
governor, Daniel w. Buck, Blue
Earth county; secretary of state, w.
Bradenburgh, Carver county; state
treasurer, Hans Nelson, Otter Tail
county; attorney general. Charles
D'Autremont, st. Louis county; for
chief justice of the supreme court,
Seagrave Smith, Hennepin county for
associate justice of the supreme court.
George F .Batchelder. of Rice county;
for presidential electors,-at large,
jas. S. O. Brien, of Washington county
and w. F. kelso, of Kittson county;
first district. Andrew Nelson; second
district, II. Z. Constance; third dis
trict, O. M.Hall: fourth district, John
+. Stone: fifth district. Henry Keller
The ticket as whole all must
recognize as the very strongest that
could have been selected. 1t is headed
by man against whom not word
of rerroach can be uttered, man of
dignity and ability, whose election
Will guarantee 10 the people of Mime
sofa an honest, careful and conscien
tious administration of the affairs of
the state, independent of any faction
or class. And these words of deserved
praise for our noble candidate for
governor can us we'll be applied to
every candidate in the above list.
Certainly the democratic party has
named the winning ticket if the peo
pie of the state will but remain firm
to their convictions and support the
ticket that best represents the princi
piles (of tax reduction) that they
endorse.

American labor-Steel-beams i'm
ported into this country are involced
at $26.88. and the existing tariff at

$28, more than 81 over the price.
