right be Immediately admitted as a state in
the Union, under the AOnstitution framed and
adopted by her people, and we heartily en-
dOrse the action of the Republican senate in
twice passing bills for her admission. The
refusal of the Democratic house of repre-

of the sacred American principle oflO al self
government and merits the condemnation
of all just men. The pending bills in the

governments should be passed without I'M
necessary delay. the Republican party
Piled ges itself to do all in it's power to faCili-
tate the admission of the territories OF New
Mexico, Wyoming, Idaho and Arizona to the
enjoyment of se~l-government as states,
such of them as are now qualified as soon as
possible, and the Others as soon as they may
become so. The political power of the Nor
mon church in the territories, as exercised in
the past, is @ menace to free institutions too
dangerous longer to be suffered. Therefore
we pledge the Republican party appropri-
ate legislation asserting the sovereign
ty of the nation in all territories where
the same is questioned, and in further
ance of that end, to place upon the
statute books legislation stringent enough
to divorce the political from heecclesiastical
power. and thus stamp out the attendant
wickedness of polygamy. The Republican
party is in favor of the use of both gold and
silver as money and condemns tie policy Of
the Democratic administration in it's efforts
to demonetize silver. We demand the redae-
ton Of letter posta4e to one cent per ounce.

A Russian young lady has been
condemned to lifelong prison for
marrying sixteen husbands. She is
a curiosity, and ought to have been
let of. When her lawyer went to see
her in prison after the trial she as
sured him of her gratitude, and ask
ed him to accept as a souvenir gold
watch and chain, which she placed
on the table before him, He at once
recognized it as his own. She had
picked his pocket and presented him
with his own watch.

Some time ago August Peterson, living
three miles west Of Red Wing, Mimi, diseog-
yred traces of oil in the behring's from an ar

the ,seventeen-year' locusts are due

locusts evidently bear the title
''seventeen-year', because they fail

Their time for disappearing has
never been discovered, however.

THE FISHERIES.

III + h"A
We arraign the present Democratic admin
istrntion for it's weak and UnpatriOtic treat
ment of the fisheries question, and its pusIl-
luminous surrender Of the essential privileges
to which our fishing vessel are entitled IN
Canadian ports under the treaty of 1918.
the vC%rIprnCal maritime Legislation OF lS5U
and the county of nations, and which tanil-
dian fishing vessels receive in the ports OF tn"
United States. We condemn the policy ot
the present administration and the Demo.
cratic majority in congress towards oar
fisheries rs untricndly and particularly un-
y@utriotic. and as tending to destroy n VaIu-
able national industry and an Indispensable
resource of defense against a foreign enemy.
The name Of American applies alike to all
citizens oftho Republic and imposes upon all
alike the same obligation of obedience to the
laws. Al the same time that citizenship Is
and must be the puuOply II safeguard OF
him who wears it, and protect him whether
high or lDn. rich or poor, in all his civil
rights. 1t should and must afford him pro-
lection at home and follow and protect him

full trade. The men who abandoned the Rc-
publican party have deserted not only the
cause of homes government, of sound finance
or freedom and purity Of the ballot, hut ps-
pecially have deserted the cause of reform in
the civil service We will not fail to keep our
pledges because they have broken
theirs or because their candidate has
broken his, We therefore repeat our
declaration Of 1854, to wit: The
reform of the civil service, auspiciously begun
under the republican administration, should
be completed by the further extension of the
reform system already established by law, TO
all the grades Of the service to which it Is APP
plicablc. The spirit and purpose of the reform
should be observed i all executive appoint
mcnts, and all laws at variance with the OBJ
ject of existing reform Legislation should be
repealed, to the end that the dangers of free
institutions which lurk in the power ofoticiaj
patronage may be wisely and effectively
avoided The gratitude of the ma
ton to the defenders of the Union cannot be
measured by laws. The legislation Of con
gress should conform to the pledges made by
d loyal people, and be 50 en-
iaTged and extended as TO provide
against the possibility that any man who
hOnorabIy wore the Federal uniform shall be-
