Dan Moon, the treasurer for the finance

The worlds fair commission will go to Chi
cago shortly TO look over the grounds. The
appropriation is so SMALL however, that the
members express doubt about being able to
make a magnificent display, such as the state
should make on such an occasion. In other

legislature will help out by increasing the
appropriation. In this event the present
provision can be expended in erecting build
ings, so that Minnesota may have home at
the fair.

porter at the Merchants '.Minnesotans are
awake to the situation, ana there does not
seem to be any reasons why the state should
fail to go Democratic next year. The peo-
pie have been taught the lesson that free
sugar is good thing and they are going to
insist on extending it to all the necessarles
of life. To do this they must elect Demo-
