fomenting in the district to make it
evident that he will not have walk

FREE TRADE DISCUSSED.

ROCHESTER,, Mimi, March 3O.-The
address of Earle S. YOumans. of VII
mona, on free trade in its relations To :
American politics, given at the opera I
house tonight, was out of the usual line .
OF political speech making, in that its
was in no sense partisan. 1t was a dig .
nlfied discussion of principles. The adj.
dress opened by the statement that free1
trade was natural condition of society,
While protection, or trammeled trade,
was an artificial system intended to i'm
prove upon nature. From policy for

of the few. His answer to the objection
to free trade that it was too theoretical
and involved direct taxation for the
support of the government, was
CLEAR AND FORCIBLE,
and eliminated that bugbear from the
minds of his hearers. He showed that
free traders were in favor of raising al
revenue from duties, but that they
should be so adjusted that all the reve-
nue. derived from that source. or as
nearly as possible, should go into the
government treasury. In proof that thiSi
Is no new doctrine of free trade. he cited
the policy of England, whose revenue is
nearly One-halt derived from impOrti
duties, and no one questions but what
she is free trade nation. Protection
has developed a policy whereby the
main principle and object of taxation is
for the benefit of classes engaged in GER
tain avOcations, and its burdens for this
purpose are so much greater than those
imposed for government support that

of protection on legislation was It's Vir-
tuous character. Other points germane'
to the subject were presented, but these
were made most prominent. Neither
political party was mentioned or alluded
to, but the argument was strictly con-
fined to principles, and the mind of the
nearer was carried above partisanShip.
With the issues that at present divide
parties, it is not difficult to predict
which party will profit by the logic of

If Capt. A. I'll. Reed and dozen other
candidates cannot be nominated for
congress by the Republicans of the
Third district, then Joel Heatwole is
supposed to be the one dark horse who
will be led in from cold stall and the
bride of nomination be hung about
his outStretched neck. He is not, as he
says, seeking an office. but. Since
the removal of FL. r. Dewey from the
district it is generally believed
that good Republican material for
a congressman ceased to exist. No
disrespect is meant to Capt. Reed, but
the latter is pronounced dead duck in
the fight. The enmity existing between
him and Maj. Strait is said to be as bit
ter as of yore, and one stands always
ready to cut the others throat. Maj
Strait is not barred either for the reason
that he wants to go back to congress,
and his friends are anxious to have him,
too. They claim that he can get the
nomination on the first ballot, and an
election without winking. Both asser-
lions remain to be proven. The diSaf-
lection of John Kohr from the Repub-
lican central committee of the district.
and his unqualified support of Demo-
cratic principles is the best illustration
of the unity of purpose among the Re-
publicans there. Ben Herbert sadly
confesses that things are not what they
have been, and JennisOn echoes that he
has seen better times. One or two pa
pers in the district have expressed a
wish that l.. F. Hubbard come back and

BISMARCK, OAK, March 30.-The ter
ritorial Democratic central committee
met here to-day. The meeting was very
quiet and the greatest harmony pre-
vailed. At 2 O'Clock Chairman Bangs
having taken his seat and formally
opened the ball. Ira G. Bellows was
elected secretary, and credentials pre-
scented which showed the following
members present: Bangs, Glidden,
Arnold, Purcell, Ryan, Vallandingham,
Faulk, Hill, Marrinan, Webb, Goodrich,
Hare, Bellows and Collester. The
absent members were represented by
proxies. The question of proxies hav-
ing been disposed of, Mr.. Hill, of the
committee, introduced the following
resolution:
Resolved, That we affirm the resolu-
lions of the national Democratic con-
vention of 1884, and the principles and
policy advanced by the president in his
late message to congress, and we heart
lily commend the efficient, patriotic and
upright national administration of Presi-
dent Grover Cleveland, and the terri
tOrial administration of Gov. Louis *.
Church.
There was little discussion as to the
proprietv of the Introduction of this res
Olution at this time, and a test vote be-
ing taken II votes were cast in favor of
adopting the resolution without further
delay against nine for pOStpOnement.
The resolution was then made unani-
nous amid enthusiastic applause. The
time and place for holding the terrific
rial convention to select delegates to the
national convention at st. Louis was
next considered and the names of sew
eral cities presented. w. f. Purcell
moved that WatertOwn be selected.
Bellows moved as an amendment that
jamestown be chosen as the place.
Glidden named Sioux Falls and Chair
man Bangs read letter of invitation
from Deadwood. The first ballot re-
suited as follows: Watertown, IA;
Sioux Falls, z; jamestown, 4; Fargo, l..
On motion the choice of Watertown
was made unanimous. 1t was then de-
cided that the day for meeting should
be May 2, 1888, and the hour 2 o'clock p.
IN. At the suggestion of Chairman
Bangs the following resolutions were
unanimously adopted:
Resolved, That we heartily indorse
President Cleveland'S views on the
tariff issue.
Resolved, That the so-called protective
tariff is an Ubiquitous tax on the people
for the benefit of the mOnOpolieS and
trusts, and we demand its imnnfiiaIe
repeal on all raw material and the nee
eSsarieS of life.
The following resolution on the ques-
ton of appOrtionment was adopted:
Resolved, That in the call for dele

lied county be allowed two delegates and

would not support Scheffer, probably
more for personal feelings on the part
OF the managers than any lack of politi-
cal ability on the part of Mr.. Scheffer.
Accordingly McGill was taken, and, of
course, with him Loren Fletcher. But,
since the end of that campaign, the sen
timentl of cordially supposed to exist
between McGill and the Pioneer Press
have failed to materialiZe. In the con-
test for speaker of the house Of 1887 it
was frequently stated by those who
claimed to know that the Pioneer Press
had forsworn its allegiance to McGill,
and would bring out Merriam for gov
ernOr this year. Mr.. Merriam'S affec-
ton for Fletcher is not like David's
for Absalom, and any organ that he COLI
trolled would have to oppose the latter.
Fletcher elected McGill, and Fletcher,
despite some fallings out with the gov
ernor, wants him elected again. Thus
it comes about that he is snubbed by the
Pioneer Press, and Capt. Snider, of
Gogebic fame, advanced. The Dispatch
was a Gilman organ in 1886, with much
friendliness for Scheffer. Gilman him
self has always been political friend
of Scheffer's, and would have nomi-
mated him for governor in '66 had the
Gibbs crowd held together, and not in
continently bolted the combination. Mr..
Scheffer'S friends, with good many
other Republicans, cherish bitter recol-
lectionS of how Fletcher. for McGill,
came into Ramsey county two years
ago, issued ''Snap'' call and secured
an instructed delegation to the state
convention. Among the Republican
leaders, it is said, that no one thing hurt
McGill and his lieutenant more than the
manner in which they secured the Ram
sey county delegation at that time.
Twice twelve months have nearly fed
since that time, and Mr.. Gilman, no
longerh candidate for governor himself
$50 his friends say, sees an opportunity
to revenge the slight Of the last CAM
paign. He has nothing in common with
Merriam save the desire to whip
Fletcher. He can not support McGilI,
nounceS his candidacy for governor,
Snider is brought out for congress, and
at once the two Republican dailies of
st. Paul open fire on Fletcher, and close
watching shows their aim to be through
him at McGill. This is the common
talk of political circles, and now so well
authenticated that REPUTATION is hardly
possible. In nutshell the situation
might be put this way:
Republican candidate for governor,
A. X. McGill, backed by the state house
faction and Loren Fletcher.
w. r. Merriam, aided by J. J. Hill
and the capitalistic faction of the party
who fear radical legislation and are
seeking to head Off the granger move
ment.
Albert Scheffer, backed by Gilman
through motives of revenge, and the
Germans, who are opposed to high
license and fear prohibition.

Congressional Timber and the
Rumors Of Lively Circus
There.
Intimate friends of Judge Start keep
repeating the assertion that he in no
sense will accept nomination for con-
greSS from the Republicans or any other
party. He thinks that his judicial posi-
ton and comfort is worth much more
than to be the butt end of an ugly politi-
cal fight. The Spring Valley Vidette
sums up the congressional situation in
these words:
1.-The commanding position of Judge
Wilson, his irreproachable record and
the widespread conviction that he will
be his own successor, coupled with the
fact that the Republican party is house
divided against itself-on the question
of the strongest and most available can
didate-strikingly enhance the popular
tension and uncertainty"
Gill as the "Judas Iscariot of this day
and generation" From a Republican
standpoint, the district is in id"
bad condition. The Window, DunneIl
and White breaches to all appearances
have not been healed, and, unless the
oracleS are very far off, Dunnell is
candidate for the nomination. Several
papers of the district have notified the
party editorially that if he is nominated
they will bolt. Other candidates NEIL
toned are as follows:
Wabasha County,. a. Mullen.
Winona County-Maj. Gould.
Houston County-James O'Brien.
Fillmore County-C. H. Conkey.
Olmsted County,. A. Leonard.
What Mr.. Lovely's position will be in
the family row is perhaps CORE city out
lined in the following extract from
letter written by a First district resi-
dent:
Lovely, you know, has not yet re-
covered from his attack of mad. He
thinks himself the worst abused man in
the district, and cherishes bad designs
on Drunnell and White. He hasn't lost
all of his friends by long shot, and
some of them will be in the Rochester
convention prepared to look after his
interests. | haven't the remotest idea
that Lovely is candidate (nor has any
one else) but he and his friends will do
all that they can to spoil good many
plans now being laid. John A. Lovely
is good deal nearer being Democrat
to-day than he's ever been before"
Should Judge Wilson not be a candi-
date for reelection, but he will be I'M
less nominated for governor, F. F. Buck.
of Winona, has fair show to take the
Democratic nomination. Earl S. You
mans, the wealthy lumberman of Wi
mona, and Republican, is making rad
ical anti-tariff speeches throughout the
district, and in consequence is receiving
notices as to his availability to run for
congress on revenue tariff platform.

Politics From All Sources
With No End Of Harmony
in the G. o. P.

The political situation has straight
ened out little this week. 1t is def
nitely settled that Scheffer is up for
governor and that Loren Fletcher is to
be opposed by Ramsey county. From
the Merriam camp comes the report,
fairly well authenticated, that J. j. Hill
is backing Mr. Merriam for governor.
The alleged go-between for Mr.. Hill and
Merriam is Joseph Bookwater, land
agent of the Manitoba, and an old lieu
tenant of Sabin'S, who was retired from
The st. Vincent custom house when
Cleveland was elected. Bookwalter is
said to be after the scalps of Eli Warner
and j. A. James, of the state house. The
McGill element appears to have lost
some ground this week. On the Demo-
cratic side of the house nothing is being
done save to watch the monkey and par
rot fight between the Republican fac
lions.

REPUBLICAN ERRORS.
How the Legislative Manual Falsi-
fies Important Matters OF Rec

A CORE spondent of the GLOBE, writ
ing under the date of the 9th, gives the
following valuable information in re-
gard to the legislative manual of 1887,
issued by the secretary of state, Hans
MattsOn:
''In the GLOBE of last Saturday you
give the official election returns in Hen
nepin county in 1856 by which you
make it appear that DR.. AmeS had car
ried the city of Minneapolis by over
5000 majority. | find on consulting the
legislative manual of 1887. published
under the direction of the secretary of
state. that your figures are apparently
correct. If this were true l should call
Minnesota doubtful state, but since it
is false, beg leave to correct. My man
ual and all others that | can find give
the vote of McGill in Hennepin county
at Hit and that of AmeS as 14,573.
The official returns do not show this.
Instead of McGill receiving Hit votes
in Hennepin he had 14,275. AmeS car
ried the county by 290 odd votes. He
lost the city of Minneapolis by about
100, that being McGill'S majority there.
The legislative manual is badly off,
either through bad proof reading or
other negligence. | make this correc-
ton as something that adds strength to
last Saturdays interview, which as
serted that one of DR.. Ames' weak points
was that he could not carry his home
vote. Since the manuals are the only
easily accessible sources of information
as to election returns it would seem as
if the matter placed in them should be
cOrrecto
