MIR. mERR1AM's SILENCE.

When citizen becomes a candidate
for public Office and permits his name to
be placed before the people as one de-
string their support and commentator,
the people have the right to demand OF
him on what grounds he is peculiarly
fitted to occupy that Office. They have
the right to demand his position on the
public questions of the day, and to
know from his own lips whether OF not
he is in sympathy with them. Most
public men recognize this right. Gov.
MCGILL does not conceal his prefer
ences for high license, nor Mr.. SCHEF-
FER his sympathy for low tariff. Mr..
NELSON is emphatic IN his attack on
high tariff, and Mr. LIND writes open
letters announcing his views on protec-
ton. They make no pretense of con-
cealment, having their campaigns to
make on what they defend or attack.
The people know where they stand, and
are free to make their choice.
1t is left for Mr.. MERRIAM, as a can
didate for governor, to pursue new
policy. For year it has been known
what Office he desired. His agents have
sown the seeds of his ambition from
Red lake to the Iowa line. In all that
time there has not come from him one
utterance as to what his opinions are on
the important questions of the day, or
what line of policy he would pursue if
chosen governor. He has given 5000 to
the Farmers alliance. He gave asumpt-
uous banquet to the last house. He
has secured a financial interest in sew
eral newspapers and fortified himself
with heavy contingent expense ac-
count. Beyond that nothing is known
of him. His organs fill their columns
with meaningless platitudes about his
good humor, his business capacity, ETC.,
ad nauseam. They said the same thing
of McGILd. and of HUBBARD and the
long list of nonentities that preceded
them. What do their words amount
to? How much more do the people
know from these of Mr.. MERRIAM's
political principles?
Not very long ago the GLOBE sent to
Mr.. MERRIAM a request for an inter
view. He was asked to speak his mind
on the tariff question, high license, and
kindred topics, such as man in his
position ought to have honest, sound
opinions upon. He refused to say
word on these subjects. The GLOBE
was not surprised at this refusal. 1t
confirmed the estimate this journal has
placed in the past upon Mr.. MEkRIAM's
political principles. But what have the
people to say? Is it of no moment to
them if Mr.. MERRIAM is for high tariff,
low license, and no railroad legislation. Is
it nothing to them if his dearest wish is
not their interests-but to find step
ping stone to the seat of a United States
senator? Have they not the right to
know if it is his wealth OF his principles
that are to make him governor, if they
CAM
His silence is ominous. 1t bodies
campaign untinctured with principles.
The suspicion grows that Mr.. MERRIAM
is playing with the passions of men, and
not their convictions. From the centers
where the applause of his greatness is
strongest, come the rattle and chink of
the coin in the money-changer's scales.

Without a Policy.

New York Times
5 The speech of Judge Kelley has this
point of significance about it. 1t was
entirely barren of any hint of an affirm
alive policy on the part of the Repub-
IicanS, except such as may be inferred
! from his criticism of the whisky
trusts" as the product of the tax on
distilled spirits. The debate, as it pro-
i. ceeds, will be watched with interest for
the development of such policy by the
Republicans. AT present they seem to
besin doubt as to which course is the
more dangerous for them, to try to
frame policy OF to try to get On with
out one.
IT The Tax on Whisky.
louisville Courier-Journal.
5 This is a favorite conceit of those
who would take the tax off whisky, in
order that the tax Oh all the common
needs of life mays be retained at war
figures. 1t seems to carry the idea that
tile whisky tax, every penny of which
goes directly into the public treasury
for the support of the government, is
of a piece with the tax on imports,
which puts three or four dollars into
the pockets of private individuals to
every dollar it puts into the national
/ treasury. And where does the prOtec-
ton to whisky come in? Nowhere. On
the contrary, the whisky tax has often
been NEST bufdenSome-occasion
bringing outright ruin to the distillers
themselves.

Aid Voted by Albert Lea to

The Burlington & Northern has not,
by any means, given up the idea of hav-
ing pro rate between New York and
st. Paul, or its equivalent. 1t has,
therefore, given notice that it will again
reduce rates, and as consequence tho
Northwestern roads have been notified
to attend meeting next Thursday tn
consider the matter. This means SIM
ply that a pro rate from New York To-
st. Paul will be insisted upon. or that
some arrangement must be made that
amounts to the same thing. AS was eX-
planned few days ago, the Chicago
papers are opposed to this, and the Chi
cago Tribune has the following to say
upon the subject:
1.-The determination of the Burlington
q Northern to again reduce the rates
between Chicago and st. Paul and Min
neap0llS Is certain to lead to q renewal
of the war i'll Northwestern rates, and is
likely to involve the Western and South
western lines. The Burlington d North
ern claims that since it restored the
rates-April Sit has lost much of its
traffic. The lake lines are making con-
tracts on business from the seaboard to
st. Paul and Minneapolis via Duluth at
such low rates as to prevent shipments
via Chicago, and as the Burlington u
Northern has to depend almost entirely
upon its through traffic, having but little
local business, it is compelled to meet
the competition of the lake lines. The
other Northwestern lines claim, how
ever, that the competition by the Lake
Superior lines has always embarrassed
them during the navigation season more
or less, and is no worse this season than
formerly AS no n1rticuIar notice had
been taken of that complication hereto
fore, they say, they can see no reason
why the competition should be met now
and ruinous rates inaugurated They
say the Brlington d Northern suffers no
more from the Lake Superior competi-
ton than any of the other roads running
via Chicago. The Burlington q North
ern's competitors are firmly determined
to make no concession to that road
