To color the hair golden the Greeks
used the same means employed by the
Venetians in the sixth century-they
brushed an ungueut Of gold size, such as
painters used, and then exposed their
heads TO the sun. But in this they were
not behind the men, who prscticed the
same art upon both hair and beard when
they turned gray. Their artificial chest
nut or tc wn was sneered at however, by
the more fortunate, as an Indication OF
feminine" vanity.
Usually the materials to be used upon
the hair at Greek woman's toilet were
only unguents, essences and perfumes.

You would have said it was some vast

rHE LATEST DopoE.

The McGill oficeholders have sprung
q new, or rather. an additional scheme
to aid them In sending q delegation to
ST. Paul to mis-represent Blue Earth
county. The story is now being clrcula.
ted that the anti McGill movement il
one IN favor of Sabin for U. s. Senator
Any int, lligent person only has to con.
sidcr the matter u moment TO see how
absurd $ well as impossible II is that
there is any truth in this charge. The
convention TO select delegates to the
State convention is separate and apart
from hat which noAsinates county Off.
GERS and members Of the legislature, and
therefore Il is impossible that one car
have any effect upon the other. The
delegates elected 10 the gubernatoriaI
convention will have no possible iniu'
ence on any question but that of who
shall be nominated for Governor. The
convention has been called separately
and the only issue is the gubernatoria
one, the matter Of Senator having moth
ing more to do with it than governor
of Alaska. This misrepresentation is o.
course being made to secure the support
of anti-Sabin men who prefer Merriam
to McGill, but would support the latter
rather than aid Sabin. The charge Ii
not only entirely false, but is n which
will be apparently 80 to any n wht
takes the trouble to consider the matter
sensibly.
The McGill oficeholders are gettin,
desperate at the situation, and are no
above any method which will secure
delegate for their chief. Those Repub
leans who have the success of their par
ty at heart and favor Merriam as thu
strongest candidate in the field shoult
not allow themselves to be wheedled in
to an attitude which will allow the coun
ty 10 be misrepresented on the Govern
orship matter.

ANOTHER RAMSEY COUNTY DIS.
GRACE.

The result of the Ramsey county prim-
aries Saturday evening was no surprise
to anyone who knew the arrangements
that had been made before hand. Mr..
Scheffer carried the day in the same
manner as he did a few week. z at the
Democratic primaries. The same men
and the same means were brought to
bear, and the real Republicans appar-
emily stood by and made no effort to Sc
cure fairness. Doubtless such effort
would have been unavailing if attempt
ed, for the majority on the county COM
mIttee had In advance refused to adopt
those measures which would have Sc
cured fairness, and opened the way for
the disgraceful overriding of the Re-
publican sentiment of the city. The
WhIteman election law was ignored and
no provision made for the exclusion of
other than Republican votes. The
Scheffer-McGil combination and their
adherents took possession of the polls,
and put in judges who allowed the bal
lot boxes to be shamefully stuffed with
Democratic votes IN Scheffer's interest.
In many of the wards the respectable
element who are a majority of the party
and who favor Merriam became disgust
ed at the tactics and abandoned the
fight. In other crowded wards where
no provision had been made to accom-
modate half the vote the polling places
were filed by a crowd of Scheffer bum
mers and no chance given Republicans
to cast their votes.
1t must be evident to every honest
person that the man who triumphed in
the Democratic primaries in Ramsey
county a few weeks ago is not the choice
of the Republicans of that county, and
the fact that he secured the primaries of
the latter party through the same dis.
graceful methods as gave him his first
victory counts for nothing-except that
it serves for an example to be severely
rebuked by the Republicans of other
parts of the State. The candidate who
went into Democratic primaries only u
short time since to secure an endorse
ment from that party for Governor, and
who followed that up by methods which
DISTINGUISHED the Republicans of Ram
sey county and over-rided their senti-
ments and wishes by countenancing the
methods of Saturday night, can hope
for no support from the good Republic
ans of the country and inland localities.
Let the latter see to 1t that the Ramsey
county fiasco is soundly and forcibly re-
buked, and Mr.. Scheffer and his adj
herents given to understand hat run
ming a Ramsey county caucus is a very
different affair from triumphing over
the virtue and honesty of the Republic
ans of Minnesota.

FREE TRADE AND THE SINGLE
TAX ON LAND.

Contributed by the Home Market Club Of ILL.,
Iftheir reservations are TO be believed
the farmer Is the especial pet OF the free
trade attorneys. All along the reform"
ranks from White House TO frontier cab
in, from the ponder0us daily paper Of
the metropolis to the smallest cross-road
orator, are TO be heard wailines over the
hard fate of the farmer. compelled TO
aid in making everybody rich but HIM
self. To reverse all this he is urged TO
vote for free trade, as with that will
come lighter taxation, increased prices
for farm products and other desired
blessings. The policy Of compelling for
eIgners TO pay for the privilege of using
the markets of this country is denounced
az "vicious, inequitable and illogical, ("
the cause of low prices for products and
most other inconvenience the farmer is
forced TO encounter Hence, il Is clai n
eel that all farmers should support the
tariff reform" party.
But there is another class of voters
whose prejudices are not to be thus ex-
cited-a class whose interests are sup
posed to lie IN m opposite direction
and to these an appeal is made OF an al
together different character. In certain
Eastern localities the appeal Is made TO

forms of taxation except taxes on lands;
and there has been selected as the lead
err of this wing Of TIE free trade forces,
MIR. Henry George, who has already
abandoned the United Labor party he
aided in building up, and taken the field
for Cleveland and free trade"
The New York Star, an administration
organ, opens its report of q recent meet
ing In that city with the exulting re-
mark, "Henry George has girded M his
loins, and is determined to go forth to
STAY the dragon of protection" In his
first speech this dragon-slayer eulogized
and proposed cheers for President
Cleveland, and otherwise aided i'm the
passage of the following:
WHEREAS, A reduction of tariff duties.
however slight, is a step toward the abo-
lition of all taxes on the products of IN
dustry, and their consequent transmits
sion to land values.
RESOLVED, That as advocates of the sim
gle tax on land values we pledge our
votes and efforts to assist in securing the
success of the Democratic national
ticket.
In of which a committee
was appointed "for the distribution of
single fax free trade l%iterature;" and a
vote passed to 'twork conformity with the
New York free trade club" in furthering
the objects of the meetings.
Here is an aspect of the movement in
behalf of free trade which it is well for
the farmers of the United States to Sc
riously contemplate before making up
their minds to assist the Golden club
and its American allies in changing our
existing fiscal policy for one dictated in
the interest of a foreign and rival nation.
When fully advised, they are likely to
leave support of the theory of a "single
tax on land values" to its handful of ad-
v~ocates among those who have no lands
to be taxed.

The Pioneer Press says the triumph Of
Scheffer in that city means a victory for
the Columbia liquor association. That
is simply what We said a few weeks ago.
Scheffer's nomination by the Republic
ans would mean the sacrifice of the
high license plank-if not the law now
on the statute books. The party cannot
afford such q course and we do not be-
lieve it can be brought into that posi-
ton.
