STATE POLITICS.

What are the issues upon which the
political campaign in Minnesota shall be
fought this fall? A full complement of
state officers and both branches of the
legislature must be elected, and, of
course, there will be at least two COM
pletc tickets in the field, but what issues
other than mere party name shall deter
mine the preference of the voters. In
other words, what shall be the test of
party allegiance. The temperance ques-
ton is not in issue; High license was the
policy of the Republican party when it
was adopted. but it is the accepted policy
of the majority IN both parties at pres
ent. The tariff is not state issue, al
though it may cut considerable figure in
the choice of congressman, and so be
forced by implication into the fell. Sup
posing it is, what is party policy in
Minnesota upon this issue? 1t cannot
be truthfully set down that the Repub.
Lean masses favor high protective tariff.
or that the democrats are unit for free
trade. 1t may be that the extremists are
divided on party lines, but no one who
has been close observer of public senti-
ment in this state will deny that there is
not very wide gap between the masses
of our people in favor of a reasonable
tariff-a revised schedule which will be
in the aggregate far below that now ex-
listing or that proposed by the Mckinley
bill, aud that, too, irrespective of nomi.
nal partisan ship.
There is growing sentiment that
sugar should be practically free; that iron
and wool should be admitted at the low
est figures CONSTANT with reasonable
regard for our domestic manufactures,
and that all articles not produced by US,
either as raw material or finished pro.
duct shall go upon the free list, or il
taxed, then for revenue only. Neither
pasty has the monopoly of this demand
and party fealty can neither be measured
nor determined ty adherence of the in

taxation of real, personal, and railroad
properties; creation and regulation OF

sues to be faced and determined i'm the
near future are not now party issues
whatever they may be in the future.
And so the question recurs-what is
sues andprincipals underlie the approack
ing state campaign?
If two wishey-washy platforms be
framed to read anyway and all ways, up
on which to place two tickets of greater
or less personal strength, the state may
prepare itself for personal canvass, the
like of which has never been seen, with
party lines respected about as highly as
they are at the average rural town meet

The State of Minnesota has not a
more faithful and efficient officer than
Moses E. Clapp, the attorney general;
nor among the list of honored men who
have preceded him, is there one who has
discharged the onerous duties with more
ability. If he be candidate for renomi
nation before the State convention-and
the HERALD is not informed in the mat
ter-he should be accorded the honor
without hesitation. Mr.. Clapp has held
no sinecure, during his two terms, the
work OF his office having been peculiarly
important and exacting. The develop
mcnt of the State has brought vast
volume by the natural processes OF
growth, but that is comparatively small
to the great questions which have de-
manded adjudication during his term.
The vast areas of so-called railroad lands
added 90 the tax rolls by the courts
through his instrumentality, and the
cases arising from the grain warehouse
and railroad laws and the food and
dairy commission bills, have not only
drawn upon his time and energies, but
have subjected his kno Wedge and ability
to the severest tests, and he has been
equal to every occasion. If ability, fit
ness and devotion have any weight
in determining tenure of office, there
would be no possible question as to the
result. If the mirerable pointless argu-
ment of two terms be urged against
him. he may then rely upon the precedent
that it has never been applied to the Of
flee of attorney-general, as reference to
the records will show for while the State
was organized half of the lneumbents
have held that office more than two
terms

A LEVEL HEAD.
The Advantage OF Presence OF Mind In
IN Emergency.

The Advantage OF Presence OF Mind In
an Emergency.
During the late strike on the New York
Central Railroad, the militia were ordered
TO be In readiness In case OF riot, but they
were not called out
In IN interview, Gov. Hill said the troops
were not TO be called upon except In case OF
an emergency. The emergency had not
arisen, therefore they would not be ordered
out. He remarked that this was the first
great strike with which he had had ex-
periencc, ind he did not propose to lose his
head; the only point ut which there had
been serious trouble was ut Syracuse, and
there adeputy-sheriff had lost his head and
precipitated an encounter.
The strike continued several weeks, and
there was riotous action ut various points
along the road, but tho civil authorities
were able to cope with it without calling on
the militia.
The test of a mans real ability comes when
IN emergency arises which makes hasty
call on his good judgment and discretion.
The man who retains his presence Of mind,
maintains his equipoise and exercises sound
discretion at such critical junctures, Is TO
be- relied on and will be put TO the front
Men with level heads have the staying
qualities which do not falter in the face OF
danger. Otis A. Cole, Of Kinsman, O.,
June 10, 1890, writes: SIN the full Of 1888

wrote TO him. In due time I received an
answer, stating that the testimonial that
he gave was genuine aud not overdrawn in

Gov. Hill Is accounted a very successful
man; he is cool and calculating and belongs
to the class that do not lose their heads
when emergencies arise.

TARIFF PERPLEXITIES.
A Move to Put Sugar on the Free List
Also Tin Plate-Other Nuts to Crack.

When the tariff bill is brought up in the
House il is the purpose Of men on the republi-
can side to move an amendment putting sugar
on the free list, and there is possibility that
it may carry, as some democrats are
apt to vote for it. Meanwhile some Of
the sugar men are quietly making
canvass of the men they can depend upon to
vote for an increased duty. They want to know
how many there arc who will vote to amend
the bill in this direction and of these how many
will vote against the whole bill in case they
fail to secure their amendment
The proposition to restore hides to the free
list will come from the republican side and
will, OF course, have the support of most of
the eastern members.
Republicans who have canneries in their
districts and some who do not believe
that it is possible to build up a tin plate
industry in this country have decided
to make an effort not only to prevent
the proposed increase Of duty, but to have tin
plate put on the free list. motion will be
made on the republican side, by Mr.. Payson if
not by some other member to put tin plate on
the free list. A proposition may be coupled
with this to take the duty off canned goods.
A number OF the leading glove importers
and dealers from New York appeared before
the ways and means committee today to ask
that the ad yalorem system of duty be changed

A QUESTION OF LAW.
Must the Agent of a Manufacturing Com
pany Take Out a License as a PeddIer?

Today in the Police Court an interesting
question of law was raised by Mr.. Carringto n
In the case Of 0rville Wilson, agent of manu-
featuring company of Rhode Island, who was
charged with being an unlicensed peddler.
Mr.. Darlington admitted that the defendant
sold samples of soap powder from door to
door, but claimed that he did it as an agent of
the company end as such he was not liable under
the District laws. The defendants claim was
that he worked on salary and that the COM
pany made no money on bis sales. but they
were made simply for the purpose Of placing
the article ON the market. Mr.. Darlington
cited decision of the Pennsylyania
courts in similar case and argued
that the sales were really made by the manu-
featuring company and not by the defendant.
Mr.. Darlington said that another article
similar to this was manufactured in this
city aud the prosecution was really instituted
or started by persons who are interested in the
rival concern. The case was argued at length
by Mr.. Dumont and Mr.. Darlington
Judge Miller spoke of the fact that the COM
pany was taxed in Rhode Island and asked
whether the sale was made by the Kendall Com
pany or by the defendant. The judge reserved
his decision.

THE DISTRICT IN CONGRESS-.
The Railroad Question and Other Mat.
tiers Before the House Committee.

The House District committee held a long
and interesting session today in which matters
OF Importance to Washington were discussed
At considerable length. All the members OF the
committee except one were present The first
matter taken up was the bill giving trust COM
panies in general the right to act in a tiduciary
capacity. This is the bill which was pushed by
the trust and security companies and opposed
by the Bar Association. No positive
action was taken on the bill, but
the subcommittee was authorized TO have the
bill reprinted with the amendments proposed
by them. II win then be considered and acted
upon by the full committee. The Atkinson
railroad bill legalizing the occupation of
ground and streets by the Baltimore and Poto-
mac railroad was then discussed for a short
time, but action on the measure was deferred
until some future time.
4 HEARING on THE RAILROAD QUESTION APRIL IS.
The committee then tackled the general rail-
road situation, SO far as the Pennsylvania road
is concerned, taking up the Burton
bill, the proposed removal of the sta
ton, dc. The Pennsylvania railroad situation
was made special order for April ls at 10
a. m, when the entire field will be gone over
and in all probability some conclusion arrived
at.
The discussion today was mainly on the
matter OF taking up the Atkinson bill, and il
was thoroughly developed that there was wide
difference OF opinion on the situation. and il is
practical certainty that when the final reports
are made the House will find itself confronted
with two bills from the committee, one the
Atkinson and the other the Burton bill.
Which will be the majority report
Is question OF extreme doubt 1t is judged
that the committee is almost equally divided
on the general question. The committee
propose to thoroughly sift the matter
before making any reports and on the
date to which the matter was postponed or
possibly before further hearings will be given
on both sides of the question.
OTHER MATTERS.
Mr.. Gardner appeared before the committee
for five minutes in advocacy of the bill incor-
porating the Electric Lighting Company.
A favorable report was authorized on the bill
providing for special assessment certificates
This bill was before Congress last year in prac-
ticaiiy its present form.
AGAINST THE BOARD OF AUDIT BILL.
From the committee on the District of CO.
iumbia Senator Harris reported adversely
the bill to create board of audit to ad-
just all claims for damages to real estate by
reason of public improvements in this city.
Action on the bill was postponed indefinitely.

petition cf the heirs of the late Prof Joseph
Henry praying that the services of the pro-
fessor for twenty-five years and eight months
on the United States Light House Board be

Commissioner Taylor Says His State
VIII Surely Go Republican Next Fall.

The very heavy democratic majority in Mil
waukee on Tuesday has caused much comment
among politicians, and great deal of specu-
lation as to its probable effect on the state
election next fall.
A STAR reporter had brief interview this
morning with Mr.. H. A. Taylor, United States
commissioner Of railroads, on Wisconsin poll
tics. Mr.. Taylor is one of the old residents of
the state, has always been active in politics
was for several years prior to 1888 chair man of
the republican state committee and is now the
owner and editor of the State Journal at Madi-
son, the official state paper.
The municipal election in Milwaukee" said
Mr.. Taylor, ''instead of indicating a demo-
cratic victory in the state next fall. will produce
just the opposite result. Wisconsin is always
safely republican where anything like full
vote is polled. The republicans feel SO secure
that in off years thousands of them neglect to

Milwaukee will induce many republicans to
vote this fall who would not otherwise have
done 80.
But the principal reason" continued Mr..
Taylor, why the republicans will win this fall
Its decision will greatly affect the school sys-
tenn of the state. The last legislature
passed law--and there was not vote
against it in either house-requiring,
among other things, that all chill
dren should receive certain instruction
each year in English. Certain German Catho-
lie and Lutheran priests and bishops take ex-
ception to this and declare it to be an interfer-
ence wich their parochial schools, and demand
that the law be repealed. Milwaukee is the
center Of the opposition to the law Many
Catholics and Lutherans approve the law.
large share Of the republican Germans of
the state live IN Milwaukee. The democrats to
catch this vote, pronounced in favor Of the re-
peal OF the law in question andSo secured the
votes Of many republicans. But the sentiment
in the state generally is just the reverse OF
what it is in Milwaukee. The republicans
are practically unanimous in support of
the law outside of Milwaukee and
many prominent democrats are outspoken in
favor Of it and condemn the Milwaukee demo-
Gratis for opposing it. Some declare that if
that is to be made the issue, they will support
the republican ticket in the state election

tensify the feeling in favor Of the law through
out the state. Republicans will rally to its sup
port and if the democratic state convention

things the petition says: I'VE were instructed
to urge upon the republican members Of the

The change lis demanded by every considerR-

important cities OF the state, and. indeed, Of
many other communities, Is deplorsble. To
leave them as they are, subject to the evils
which absolute free whisky can infict.
Is little less than treason. There never
was a time when fearless, high-minded action
on the part of republicans was SO necessary ss
at this moment. We beg that you will not fail

and for justice that was ever presented to d.

reasons. The party has already Lost its

of Its attitude toward prohibition.
