The Testimony in the Cronin affair

THE testimony in the Cronin affair re-
garding the workings of the Clan-na-G Gael
and kindred societies is sort of revela-
ton to many people. Few of us realized
the amount of plotting and secret pro-
cedure going on among men who pre-
tend to be American citizens. Such do
ings have no rightful place in this land
of the free and the home of the brave.

MANKATO'S MITE.

The following ID list of the subscrip-

The work was well and promptly done

HEATwoLE, of the Mortified Ne4Us, is a
little disguised with Washburn. The pol
iticlans in general are apparently lit
tie tired of the party that has not shown
proper appreciation. Heatwole is a
first class editor and as such should not
ache for office. He is a more potent
factor for political reform as Editor Heat
wole than he would be as officeholder
Heatwole. Stick to your printing shop,
Bro. Joel.-St. Peter Herald.
This must disgust Heatwole pretty
thoroughly. To think that after his re-
peated declarations that there was no
Office SO full of honor or emoluments as
70 tempt an exchange for his position as
country editor" Joel should be child
ed in the above manner. Bro. Heat
wole put himself into position right
from the start where he could cut and
lash and criticise with impunity and we
are not sorry to see him do it.

THE prompt suspension of DIR. Bowers
and the other officials of the Rochester
asylum meets with quite general appro-
val. We have no disposition to PREJUDICE
their cases, and do not think any one
else has, but the case of mis-manage-
ment or misconduct is so plain that the
board had no other alternative. than to
suspend the officials until they had made
an explanation of their queer conduct.

THE sensation which several papers
tried to work up Sunday over the
finding of bloody coat and vest in a
Chicago ash heap didn't pan out. The

THERE shouldn't be any quarrel in

SOME very magnificent subscriptions
are being made all over the country for
the Johnstown sufferers. OF course the
Vanderbllts with the 5000 contribution
will get the most attention, but there
are plenty of fifty cent subscriptions
which mean as much and deserve as
great commentator as the gifts of the
mighty millionaires.

Recently our organization had some

Mrs. Burhett, with others, was led to
believe that l and my friends
determined to monopolize everything.
With this idea in her head, she had

that the legal sister has got the medi-
cal sister to sue u.s."
