The Blue Earth City Post, has COM
menced q new year in its existence, the
tWenty-third. It's editors note prosper
ity and success, and we are glad to
hear it, The Post is good Republican
paper, always has been. Its articles
are always full Of force. and there is no
lukewarmness in the style of its edit
ors- They are continually doing good
service for their party. and are certainly
deserving of the reward with which they
are meeting
The State Senators or part of them,
who are elected this fall, will take part
IN the election of man to succeed c..
4 Davis in the U. S. Senate, two years
from now. For that reason, if for no
other, the people should be careful as to
whom thev select. Davis should sue
coed himself, and Davis men should be
elected to the legislature. We don't
want anymore Of the performance and
boolle work OF two years ago, and the
best way to avoid it is to send men to
St. Paul to do work, who are pledged
and can be depended on to support an
honestan able man.
Hon: Michael Doran. well known as
one end d ti,y Me and Mike owners
of Minnesota democracy, has stated.
that for tfo present He is oft of politics,
but hints that, II Ames should De can
didate Tot governor, lie will once more
don his fighting clothes and make it
1ncomforta bly, warm for the doctor.
The boss has several old scores laid
up against the Minneapolis office seek
er, and if Ames should be fool enough
to again shy his worn-out castor into
the ring, Doran will no doubt do as he
says he viii. Wilson, Of Winona, is
supposed to be Doran's choice.
The Mckinley tariff bill passed the
house on Wednesday by nearly u strict
party vote. OF the republicans, 1854
voted for it, and only one, Coleman, of
Louisiana, who objected because of the
feature providing for free sugar, voted
againstit. All the democrats opposed
and cast their ballots to down the bill.
1t will now go to the senate, where it is
naturally expected that numerous
changes will be made II will then be
returned to the house, and. if the men,
GERS of that body can recognize in the
changed measure anything like the old
one, it will probably become q law.
Great obstacles, however, stand in it's
way and the fate of the bill is bv no
means q certain one.
On the first page Of this paper is a
short account of Congressman Lind S
effort in the House to secure reduction
of the duty on binding Irvine. We
would request everybody, and espec-
tally those interested in Irvine, to read
it. It will show them that Mr.. Lind is
making himself heard to good purpose
down at Washington. and is certainly
not asleep over the interests Of his con-
stltuents. lis true be did not succeed
in lacking his amendment to the bill,
but it must be remembered that he was
opposed BY the strongest men Of his
party. He worked hard against odds
TO gain his point, and deserves credit
even in his failure to place Irvine be-
low its present duty and protection.
All will not be easy going in the dem
ocratic camp this year, not by n long
ways. Doc Ames who wants to be gov
ernor, but never will be, has some
strength, in fact good deal Of it. He
may not succeed in getting the nomina.
ton. but he is net going to let it slip
from him, without causing considerable
exertion on the part of his opponents,
Mike Doran and others to the contrary
