The Sullivan Mitchell fight was clearly

THE Sullivan Mitchell fight was clearly
another of those fraudulent affairs into
which prize fighting has degenerated--
if that were possible. Both men came
out o: the ring practically unframed,
and what is termed a "hard and desper-
ately fought battle" was only such in the
degree that the men were exhausted by
three hours dancing about in an attempt
to keep away from each other. Had
there been any intention of real fighting
the "miIl' needn't have lasted half an
hour, and Sullivan could have scored a
clean knock out. That is evident from
the fact that every square blow he gave
Mitchell took the latter clear off his feet.
1t was merely long drawn out boxing
match, and the outcome was without
doubt fully understood beforehand. Sui
Ivan was forced TO give Mitchell chance
or give up his title to the champion
ship, and as neither of them wanted to
be hurt it was easy to divide the honors
by arranging an affair like that OF Satur-
day, and calling it draw. 1t must have
been bitter pill to Sullivan to submit
to these terms, but he seems to have
preferred them to going into real bat
tie. 1t is to be earnestly hoped that the
general disgust with which the outcome
of the matter is received in this country
will result in Sullivan's RELOCATION to the
obscurity that should be the fate Of any
fellow who has no ambition above prize
fighting.

THE question of voting bonds for the
purpose of providing the city with prop
er facilities for the education of its
youth is again fairly before the voters.
1t is difficult 10 give new reasons why
the proposition submitted by the board
of education should receive the support
of all intelligent citizens, inasmuch as
the entire ground for the necessity of
the move has been heretofore so often
and thoroughly stated. Our city makes
pretentions, which are we'll supported,
of being an enterprising, progressive
town, and expects its present and grow
ing importance to attract more and
more attention and result in a continued
increase in population. Surely any in
crease of population to be desired will
be of that class of people whose first
consideration in deciding upon new
home will be the character of the adj
vantages offered for the proper educa-
tion of their children. What induce
ment can be offered new Corners which
will outweigh the objection that our
public schools are in such crowded
that admission TO new pupils
in the lower departments is refused?
This alone should be sufficient to make
every voter who has an interest in the
welfare of Mankato favor the PROPOSE
ton to erect new building. While in
other directions Mankato citizens can
Justly boast of advantages and points of
importance not enioyed by other cities,
when the matter of our public school
facilities is mentioned, the Mankato
boomer is compelled to adopt death
like silence" and the question, Where is
your high school building? is
asked, if it does not cause a
of chilliness is certain
to bring the rejoinder, Let us talk about
the weather. 1t is not joking matter,
however, but ono of vital importance to
the prosperity OF the city, and voters
will not do their duty unless they see to
ii that the school boards proposition is
carried.

IT is interesting to notice the efforts of
the British government to render itself
independent of the American people.
After the adoption of the American sys-
tenn of protection to home Industries had
been firmly established and believed to
be the permanent policy of the AmerI-
can people and government, their first
great effort was to secure a supply of cot
ton from Egypt and India. This met
with poor success, and they next turned
their attention to India for a supply of
wheat. In seven years she has succeed
ed in reducing the imports of American
wheat from 153 600, 900 bushels to 81 ,OOO,-
600. But the American protective sys-
tenn has created so great home market
for wheat for home consumption that
this falling off of the British demand has
produced no injury to tue wheat produc-
er. The question now is shall We continue
our purely American policy of protecting
our own industries and build up home
market for our agricultural products, or
follow his accidental excellency, Grover
Cleveland, and the Golden Club Democ-
racy into free trade policy, that has al
ways proved disastrous, just to benefit a
nation that has never neglected an OPP
portunity to injure the United States and
cripple her progress.

THE real reason the Pioneer Press is 50
sparing in its praises of the presidential
boom of Gen. Washburn is best shown
in communication which appears on
its editorial page Tuesday. This cores
pondent objects to the instruction ofthe
Minnesota delegates for Washburn be-
cause he is known TO favor g protec-
tive tariff. The movement for Wash
burn, it is claimed, is only scheme to
capture the delegation so that it can be
turned over to some protection candi-
date at the proper time. This cores
pondent AYERS that Minnesota Republic
cans are opposed to protection and
would therefore be mlsrepresented in
such deal. The idea that the Wash
burn boom was started in anybody else's
interest or for any other purpose than
to give faithful support to a man who
is in every way entitled to the honor is
absurd. Such q narrow view might only
have been expected from the p. p.
But that paper might Is well under
stand that whoever the Minnesota dele
CATION supports he will be a.protectionist
and not one who entertains any of the
free trade vagaries Of that paper,

THE Democratic State committee in its
call for convention gives further evil
dence of it's intention to force the party
to run its campaign on the free trade
doctrines laid down in Cleveland's mes
sage. Frank Hurd has also been i'm
ported from New York to spread his
light on the beauties of the free trade
theory. These two moves ought to be
sufficient to make Minnesota as solidly
Republican as she ever has been. 1t
will do it, too. We hear a good deal
now about the people being interested
and informing themselves upon the tariff
question. We hope and believe such is
the truth, for no man of intelligence can
study the workings of the tariff IN this
country without coming to the sure con-
clusion that the policy of protection is
what has given and will continue this
country in its present prosperity. The
faliacy which Is now being preached
that Minnesota would be especially
blessed by free trade will hot bear the
light of investigation, and The Democrats
who hope to deceive the people by it
are making huge mistake bY prompting
them to study OF the subject

AT its meeting the other day the board
of regents of thesstate university made
the important decision 10 establish what
is to be known as "school of agricul-
ture." The school is to be an adjunct
of the university and its object, as stated
in Prof. Kiehle's own language, will be
to make a school for farmers boys of
fair intelligence and ambition that will
take them with such general intelli.
gence and education as they generally
get on their farms, and will give them a
training that will broaden and inform
them rs men, and still give them prac-
ticed knowledge of the elements OF
science that will cultivate their taste for
agriculture and make them more skill
full in Its pursuit. 1t is proposed to di-
vide the course of study in two parts,
as follows:
General Business Course-Language
and composition; business arithmetic;
bookkeeping; geography, descriptive and
physical: United States history; civil
government; political economy, draw
ing.
Scientific and Manual Training Course
Shop work; chemistry; mineralogy
and composition of soils; botany; phys
iology; natural philosophy.
There will be also lecture course on
the subjects OF farm management, the
system, economy and business; soils
plants; stock, breeding and feeding
farm hygiene; farm architecture; farm
home.
AS the work of this school leads up t.
the college of agriculture already estab
lished and accomplishing great work
its practical benefits can be readily seen
The executive committee of the boarC
were requested to procure competen
instructors for the new school and max,
public the intentions of the board al
soon as possible.

HIGH license has been so well receivef

HIGH license has been so well received
in New Jersey and the action of The Re-
publican members of the legislature in
passing the bill promises to give that
party so much strength it has heretofore
been deprived of. that the Republican
majority in the New York assembly are
likely to Ego and do likewise" by pass
ing the Crosby high license bill. The
public sentiment of the State demands
the law, and the party can safely let the
whisky men go to the other side, where
they rightfully belong. The party has
lost some strength in New York by pur-
suing rambling policy on the liquor
question, but it can more than redeem
that by making bold and firm stand
for high license.

THE way the Gresham organs receive
the suggestion that General Harrison is
the candidate of Indiana for the Presi-
dency is not creditable for papers which
have disposition to be fair. They all
unite in cry that Harrison's friends
are trying to enforce the gag rule and
suppress sentiment for Gresham. How
manifestly unjust this is must be evil
dent to any well-informed person. Har-
rison's friends seeing that an effort was
being made TO boom Gresham upon his
alleged strength in Indiana were forced
to do something for the man of their
preference; and they simply stated the
truth about whom Indiana would pre-
sent TO the National convention. Moth
ing was said of Judge Gresham nor have
any criticisms been seen regarding the
boom for that gentleman. But the very
well-knOwn facts that General Ben.
Harrison has for years been the idol OF
Indiana Republicans precludes the idea
that they could present any other man
for the Presidency. His services and
devotion to the party entitle Gen. Har-
rison to the united support of the party
in Indiana.

We can net help but feel grstiAed to
see the popularity with which the recent
suggestion Of the FREE PREas regarding
Minnesota Presidential candidate has
been received; and further to note the
unanimity with which the press and
prominent Republicans Of the State en-
dorse our further suggestion that Gen.
w. ID. Washbnrn would be proper cam
didate for Minnesota to present. Es-
pecially does the idea find favor at the
home Of Gen. Washburn, though the
sentiment In favor Of Minnesots's pre-
senting h5s name as IFS "favorite is
by no means confined TO Minneapolis.
In another column we give extracts from
q number Of the prominent journals Of
the State which show how highly e.
teemed and honored IL Mr.. Washburn.
The Minneapolis Tribune Of yesterday
contained long editorial considering
the matter in favorable light, and also
gave two columns Of interviews with
prominent citizens and Republican lead
ers in which there was unanimous en-
dorsement Of the position Of the FREE
PREss. The gentlemen quoted are all
weli-known, and are such whose opln-
ions have weight in the counsels Of the
Republican party. This win be recog-
nized when it Is stated that the List in
Guided the names of Senator 6abin. e.
b. Langdon, Loren Fletcher, w. ii.
Eustis, Freeman P. Lane, Robert STRAIT
ton, Judge Terrence, Gen. Eettleton.
Col. w. S. King, s. Z. Olsen, Fred Board
man, etc. Some Of the expressions we're
full of enthusiasm, and all we're positive
that there was no reason why Minnesota
should not have candidate. The feel
ing is unanimous that General Washburn
would not only be . candidate for whom
no apologies would have to be made in
the matter Of ability, but that his name
would really carry as much strength
with it as any of the favorite sons likely
TO be brought before the convention.
The following expression from Freeman
P. Lane is a sample of the feeling mani
tested. though that gentlemen fayors an
uninstructed delegation from this State:
"Gen. Washburn is man who would
be an honor to the United StaJes; he is
a clean cut, conservative. level-headed,
every day business man, possessing rare
executive qualifications which would
eminently fit him to discharge the du-
ties of that high Office, besides, be has
never identified himself with either
wing Of the Republican party to such an
extent that any ill-feelIr z could possibly
exist against him. He has ALWAYS been
a clean, unvarnished Republican with
out "frills or ruffies," again, while he is
always true to his party, he is also an
st tariff reformer, believing that
the poor should be protected as well as
the rich, his views are in accord with
those Of the great majority of thinking
men of either political faith"

FRANK HURD says he will never run
for Congress in the Tenth Ohio district
again. We should rather think not.
Two years ago he forced himself upon
his party there against Its wishes, and
was defeated by good round majority,
though the district is Democratic by
1900. Franks free trade theories are
not popular in Ohio, and there is no rea-
son why they should be in Minnesota.

THE Pioneer Press begins to believe
that Gen. Washburn's name in connec-
ton with the Presidency means some
thing more than mere play. The p. p.
can always be relied upon to come to the
front after other leading journals have
paved the way.
