From the Washington correspon-
dent of the New York World We
learn that funds are being collected
for The presidential campaign of
1892. The opening Of the campaign
so long in advance seems 10 give
promise OF the reign of DOODLE in
1892. A campaign fund is an ALSO
lutte necessity. The work of politi-
cal education needs such a fund to
support it, and the work of politi-
cal education cannot be begun too
soon. lfthe republicans have open
ed campaign fund it has not yet
been heard from. But the methods
of the republicans are dark at oil
times, and they do not, like the
democrats, report openly to the
world what they are doing. The
workers of the republican party are
probably too busy now scrambling
for the prizes which they labored
for or paid for last November to de-
vote much attention TO 1899.

II STUPID ySttggestion.

The following from the Ava
lanche expresses our sentiments ex-
actly:-
Three or tour weeks ago Vir
ginia democratic newspaper sug-
gestcd to the democratic party the
propriety of calling off its leaders
who arc Southern men and putting
all Of its affairs in the hands OF
northern men.
The paragraph has been extern
sively copied and approyingly com
mented upon. 1t seems to foolish
for serious consideration, but it is
time to call a halt on this silly kind
of twaddle, which is much too free
ly INDUCED in.
The democi attic party begs for
nothing. 1t is under obligations tc
nobody. 1t is not private cor
poration. 1t stock is not mortgaged
The democratic party represents
the patriotism, the true repub.i
canism of the country. 1t is strong
est in the south because the south
bas been from the Foundation Of
our institutions the cradle of liber
ty. In it's bosom those who have
most impressed themselves upor
the pages of history, have beer
nourished, George Washington
the Father of his Country, was him
self southerner-a STAKEHOLDER, i
you will.
| Shall we, because the minions o
monopoly have re-established them
selves in power, lay aside the prin
ciples upon which tree governmen
is founded, form gigantic politi-
cal trust of the democratic party
and give it in charge of men Sc
lected, not because of fitness, but or
account of an accident Of residence
Bossism may grow up within
party, but unless it is overthrow
the party must itself go down
Those who should lead will lead
whether they are from the north
the south, the east OIL the west.
1t is not yet crime to be borl
south of Mason and Dixon's line
and those who, like our silly Vir-
ginia contemporary, suggest thu
propriety of turning the Leadership
OF the party over to northern mel
because they are Lorthern men blu
advertise their own stupidity.

Furious fires have been raging in
northern Minnesota for the pas
few days doing great deal Of Cam
age and causing great loss of life
A high wind has rendered it i'm
possible for any Roadway to be
made against the fire. 1t must
simply burn until there is nothing
more TO consume unless a rain
comes. In some places railroad
tracks have been burned out, max
ing it dangerous to move trains.
Cumberland, Wis, was almost
totally destroyed by fire. The losses
there aggregate $4,000. A great
deal of stock is probably destroyed.
Several lumber camps were burned
out, and every where the cry is FOL
rain.
