He WIN Favor No Union of Interests Be

TORONTO, Nov. 1.--Referring to the report
that the retaliation act is to be enforced
against Canada, The Globe says "This viii
be deplorable event. and one, too, likely to
breed very serious difficulties. Canada may
be injured, but cannot be disgraced by the
presidents resort TO so aggressive a policy.
No true Canadian will say that our govern
ment should crawl in terror for the sake OF
averting the blow. In other circumstances,
perhaps, something more than Canada has
conceded already might be honorably yielded
for good neighborhood's sake, but our Domin.
ion would present most ignominious figure
in hurrying to surrender now to Washington
threats. Almost anything would be better
than that. The Globe has always sincerely
endeavored to promote friendship between
Canada and the United States The Globe
does not believe that Canadians should grovel
on their bellies for friendship saken

THE MACHINES VICTORY.

If evidence were needed to prove that
the machine still holds firm grip on
the Republican party of Minnesota, the
organization of the Republican state
central committee would supply the
proof. The same old crew is on deck.
The men who have done the manipulate
ing in the past are the ones selected
this year to keep the business going at
the old stand. The reelection of Mr..
HEATwoLE to the secretaryship of the
committee is valuable illustration Of
the grasp the machine holds on the
party. 1t is not our purpose to
speak disparagingly of Mr.. HEAT
woLE's abilities or qualifications for the
position to which he has been elected,
for he has proven himself most capa-
BILE machine boss. We simply refer to
his reelection as an Illustration of the
power the machine possesses. For rea-
sons that were evidently satisfactory to
themselves, the Republicans of Rice
county failed to elect Mr.. HEATwoLE
as delegate to the state convention.
He didn't even have chance to partici-
pate in the work of making the nomina-
tons. But, for all that, he is elevated
by the power of the machine over the
heads of those who did participate in
the convention, and given leading po-
sitiOn in the campaign. 1t is not at all
singular, however, that it should be
done, for there is nothing that has more
contempt for popular sentiment than
the machine in politics.

WHY THEY DAILY.

There is no occasion for congress to
remain in session any longer. Every
thing has been done that is going to be
done. The lower house has cleared up
its calendar and is patiently awaiting
the action of the senate on number of
important bills that have been sent to
that body, and upon which there is no
likelihood that the senate will take
action. The MILLS bill has been buried
in the senate committee on finance,
while the Republican senators are
scheming how to dodge the retaliation
bill. The only thing in the world that
is keeping congress in session
is the fear that Republican sena-
tors have as to the effect an adj
iournment without action on these two
important measures would have on the
November election. They have made up
their minds not to pass either of them,
and yet they are at loss to know what
kind of an excuse to frame for not doing
so. 1t is babyish kind of work for a
dignifed body like the United States
senate to be engaged in, and yet 1t
seems to be grounding case. There
is nothing else for the senate to do but
fritter away time, and every day de-
voted to this dilly-dallying method only
