CAMPAIGN RUMBLFS.

HarrieS. Baker, Hall, Castle, White
man; fve-a full hand according to
Hoyle-they ought to stand pat.-Mon-
tevideo Commercial.
Judge Wilson is the paid attorney Of
railway, the Republican papers tell
yon. They do not tell you. however,
that Mr.. Merriam is large stakeholder
in more than one railroad. Which is
worse. the owner or his Salaried en-
pl0Yef-St. Peter Herald.
EX-Gov. McGill, who is to speak for
Merriam at Minneapolis, must like to
eat crow. After asserting that the gov
ernor defeated him for denomination
two years ago by the corrupt use of
money. it does not look we'll to see him
now turn around ana advocate the gov
ern0r'S re-etectiOn.-DuluthT Times.
The action OF McGill exhibits the
weakness of the man. If he had come
out IN the beginning for Merriam there
would be no occasion to criticiSe him,
but it is only four or five months ago
that he WAS whining about his own de-
feat and charging openly that Merriam
bought up the delegates to the state
convention two years ago.-Duluth
News.
1t is true there was some talk of his
singing bill at the last session which
partners of G. K. Davis. but that doesn't
surely account for anything. o, no;
Gov. Merriam simply wants an indorse-
ment and the empty honor Of second
term. with The privilege of spending
S5O,O00 year on a salary of 5000.
Priding himself, as he does, on his
business administration" he can still
recognize this as business transaction.
Saltwater Democrat.
Every man in the Fifth congressional
district who votes for Congressman
COmStOck says by that vote that he is
willing to contribute out of his earnings
$50 each year TO the Eastern manufact-
urers. Every man who casts his vote
for A. j. Whiteman says by that vote
that he has become tired of being fool
and proposes to keep his $3.50 to provide
for his family and educate his children.

The ST. Paul Pioneer Press corrects
Senator Pierce. of North Dakota, in his
flippant statement that the Mckinley
bill increased the cost of a tin bucket
but One-tenth of a cent, by showing that
the increased tariff under the new bill
will add three to four cents on each tin
bucket. Senator Pierce and other Re-
publican takers take it for granted that
the people have not the time TO learn
the truth as to the monStrouS Mckinley
bill, and they think that 10y making
light of its heavily increased burthens
they can deceive the voterS.-Le Sueur
Sentinel.
The Pioneer Press says that Senator
Whiteman voted for the notorious bill
KNOWN as House File 157, but that
dOuble-edged organ failed to explain. as
it would have done If it were not thor
ri Sh hot 4,
voted for it that it was forged by the
intrrpolating of certain words. And
just to keep the matter before its read
ers the =. p. could have added. also,
that after the commission of this for
gerry. whereby thousands of acres of
railroad lands were Wrongfully
exempted from taxation, contrary to
the purpose of the bill, il was signed by
Republican governor and il could have
added still further that it was signed by
Gov. Merriam, who was then speaker of
the house OF representatives.
Duluth Sun.
Senator Davis In his speech in con-
gress said, among other things, that tile
farmers should have access to foreign
markets, ami that there must be an out
let for the vast surplus of agricultural
products which we raise. He further
said we cannot get rich by swapping
jackets with another. Ills is good
Democratic doctrine and is right. No
tlce the contrast in the principles advo-
caied by William Henry Eustis in his
speech Saturday last. when he ad-
vaneed the idea of waIling in the coun-
try. or words to that effect. Let none
90 out, but all come in and bring their
families-make the American duties
prohibtorv-especially on linen-and
Minneapolis mills will furnish that.
Republican ideas on the tariff question
are very much like the Old tnail's shot
gun. When it was loaded little
heavy it scattered bad. William Hen
