SUICIDES IN NE W ULM.

Another man at New Ulm has at
tempted suicide by taking strychnine.-
Madelia Times.
Every now and then such squibs and
slurs as this from the Madelia Times ap-
pear in our neighboring exchanges.
Whether they are prompted by hate
for New Ulm or jealousy for the Review
in being permitted to have the scoop on
such interesting items, we cannot say;
but this much we do know-it shows a
narrowness of thought and fellowship
in the author that is not at all credit
able to the editor of would-be progress
sive and broad-guaged paper. However,
it would be remarkable if such things
did not occasionally occur. Some men
there are, we all know, whose minds
are cramped. bigotry and the belief
that they are better than anyone else
causes their thoughts to move in mar
row circles. They have not been thrown
into the company of the worlds think
ing men sufficiently to endow them with
liberal views, and they need to be recast
and have the edges of conceit and dog
matism removed.
But what If another suicide has been
attempted in New I1lm? Such happen.
ings are in keeping with growing and
lively city. They come along with ac-
tivity, with hustle and stir, They are
almost as essential to booming town
as electric light and waterworks. Where
there is life and hum, you will in these
latter days read also of sensation and
calamity. The two seem to go hand
in hand, and if New Ulm in the course
OF year furnishes six times as many
suicides as Madelia, tits because New
Uim is ahead of such small towns in
life and business in just the same ratio.
In truly lively town all kinds Of bust
ness must thrive.

Il WORD MORE as TO NE LSON

& III l.
The New Ulm Review does not take
kindly to the suggestion that Knute
Nelson be nominated for Governor next
year by the Republicans. Mr.. Nelson
is accused of having been too indepen-
dent in Congress. IT'S grievous fault
but one that is not altogether unbecom-
ing in genuine Republican. Mr.. Mel
sons friends need not be discouraged on
this account if they would like to see
him become the Republican nominee
next year. Nevertheless, if there is any
other better and more available man
for that position, trot him out.-Wino-
ma Republican.
In the above, as IN many other in
stances, the Review has been misunder-
stood IN its opposition to the Alexan-
dria politician and statesman. The
Review opposes no man tor his indie
pendence, for that, in politician or
public servant, is quality above all
others to be admired. Ills not grey
ious fault moreover, nor altogether I'M
becoming in true Republican. But it
is because there is good reason to be-
lieve that Mr.. Nelson is one of the kind
that do no. see enough difference be-
tween Republicanism and Democracy
to prevent them from Hopping from one
to the other with unexampled grace and
ease; because when the tariff fight was
waged in the national congress he could
vote and talk for an undesirable meas
ure, Democratic in every respect and
Republican in none, for the simple rea.
son that his constituents had been led
astray by political discontents and he
wanted to please his constituents; be-
cause when measure like the McKin-
ley bill, exactly opposite in it's tenden-
cies and principles, was up for public
approval he would consent to change
his course and give it luke-warm sup
port; because he can sulk in his tent, as
they say, when the man most suited to
his wishes isn't nominated for high Of
fees; and it is because, while opposed
to some of the great principles of the
party, he bankers after Republican
nomin alton himself for the reason that
it is the easiest nomination with which
to be successful, that the Review is OPP
posed to Mr.. Nelson of Alexandria as a
candidate for governor. 1t must be re-
membered that there is world of diff
ference between independence and abil-
ity to flop, and the Review sees more
of the latter in Mr.. Nelson than of the
former.

never knew hops to bring the same

DISREPUTABLE JOURNALS

DISREPUTABLE JOURNALISM.
It is much to be regretted that Min
nesota journalism should harbor any
one who would resort to villlfcation.
It is even more of pity that there are
those members of the profession who
do not find it convenient to rise above
the petty spites and enmities of opposi-
ton, and settle their disputes in honor.
able discussion. Our profession is a
noble one, if directed in the proper
channels, and from the fountains of
newspaper thought flow the expressions
that, more than anything else, move
the world. Elaboration, persuasion,
eloquence and confidence, these are the
powers which the newspaper writer
possesses to greater extent than the
followers of any other calling, and
these are the powers which have done
so much to soften and at the same time
strengthen our civilization.
But as has always been the case
where special advantages are possessed,
there is danger of misuse. From the
same source that comes ennob.
ling utterances there can come Ialso
vituperation and scurrility. In the
motives of the daily and weekly editor
is the foundation for much of the
worlds veal or woe, and upon his self
denial and love of fellow man depends
a great deal of our general happiness.
That any of the brethren, therefore,
should resort to personal abuse and in
civility merely to satisfy an individual
hate, is indeed cause for regret. The tone
and responsibility of their own papers,
as we'll as the profession at large, is re-.
duced by their malicious attacks, of IN
terest to no one in particular, and
the benefits or satisfaction that accrues
to themselves can only be small and
selfish

4 PROTE CTIONIST. AND WHY.

& 4 PRO1E CTIONIST. AND WHY. i
In consensus of opinions published
in the Minneapolis Tribune in answer
to the question, ''Why am I a Protec:
tionist,'' appears one from Hon. JUS
tice S. Morrill,, United States senator
from Vermont. The Senator's express
sions are brief but they are broad and
will permit of much thought and study.
He answers the question as follows:
First-It brings together diversified
industries which never fail to vastly
increase the personal Intelligence, in
dustry and wage. earnings of the peo-
pie.
Second-It adds prodigiously to the
power of increasing, by machinery and
steam and water power, the necessa-
ries of life and of advanced civilization,
and also greatly cheapens the cost of
subsistence.
Third-It furnishes an opportunity
for every person to find the employ
ment best adapted to his or her genius
and capacity, that will secure the lar
gest income or the greatest happiness.
Fourth 1t creates a home market,
without which the cultiYators of land IN
America would be but Il little better off
than our abo1igines.
Fifth-It is the bulwark of national
independence in peace or war.

re Merrie Olden Time.

Did lyouevcr sit down in a dentist
chair, reader, with the naked forccps
glittcring above your head, and all
yourlaculties and senses abnormally
alert? Did you ever sit down thus
and open your mouth. and point to
one of those old double-crowned GUS
pi,ls. that, like icebergs, suh1nerge
three-tourths of their bulk out of
sight and are more deeply rooted in
the constitution of man than origi-
nal sin? Did you ever, We say, sit
down thus, in the days before oans-
thetics had mitigated the barbarities
of dentistry, and say to that man,
who isliterally a man of steel: "This
is the tooth. Take good grip and
haul away?'
If you have you will know how
your grandfather used to feel when
hewent to the village doctor to have
a bad tooth extracted.
Thestalwartson of .Esculapius was
wont to lean back upon the forceps
and tug, and jerk, and saw like man
trying to rein in runaway horse.
Your grandfather grasped the arms
ofthe chairin which he was imprison-
ed, and squeezed them until his joints
cracked in order to keep from yelling.
But the agony kept gitting worse and
worse. The victim was sure nc was
going to die-when, all of a sudden,
the top of his head came off with a
roar: the planetary system rushed to.
gethcr in one vast cosmic salad, and
lifting his bewildered eyes for IL mo-
ment to the edisembodied source OF his
misery, the patient leaned over anc
discharged pint of blood into the
dentists basin.

Itussinn Immigrants Detained.

New York, July 19.-Thirty immi-
grants, all Russian Jews are in the de-
tention bureau at the Barge Office await
ing the decision of the superintendent
of immigration. 1t is probable all will
be sent back, as each one has been "as-
sisted" and the law on assisted emf
grants is inexorable. One of the de-
tanned emigrants, Mendel Roqalski,
q young man Of 90, carpenter by trade,
tells most thrilling story of his own
adventures and sufferings in Russia
He became suspect while working at

He has no money. having been robbed

ships Crew Drowned.

MONTREAL, July s1.-Agents of the
Donaldson line of steamers today re-
ceived dispatches which show that the
wreck of the steamer Circe, ashore ut
East Cape, Island of An!icosta, is much
worse than was at first supposed. Cap
tain Jennings and five of the crew have
been drowned, and the vessel is almost
a complete wreck. When the vessel
struck, Saturday night part of the crew
left the ship and landed at Fox Bay.
Captain Jennings with few of his men
determined to stand by the ship and
save her if possible. Details of the
drowning of the men so far as received
are meagre, but it is surmised that as
the vessel was broadside up. with the
waves breaking over her, it was almost
impossible for the crew to escape drown
ing. Captain Jennings was young
man, native of Glasgow, and was pop.
ular. He leaves wife and two children.

GUS. The mill resumed work with non.

Some little excitement was occasioned
this afternoon by an attempt at rescue
by tho strikers Of Michael Baking, who
had been arrested by q constable for
sending threatening letters. A large
crowd surrounded the officers and pris-
oner; but the sheriff and his deputies
dispersed them and Baking was locked
up. Thereport that two men had been
injured is untrue. No trouble is appre.
hended tonight as the non union men
are in the mill. When they come out
tomorrow, however, the strikers will
try to keep them from returning.

Terrible T,ea,mcn, of an lu.nn. ,Inu.

SAN FRAHclsoo. Cal, July 2l.-A
driveling idiot, confined in small out
house scarcely dozen feet square, un-
clathed and wallowing in filth, on the
very property that he used to own, was
the startling discovery made in Oakland
by Secretary Theobald of tie Humane
Society. The man had once been pros.
porous, and owned great deal of land,
but now, in his second childhood, he is
confined on his own property. of which
he has been defrauded, while he has
been cast aside by those who defraudet'
him, and left to die in filth. Mun,
years ago the Red House, on the San
Pablo road, was famous resort
for doubtful characters of old days.
1t was kept in those days b,
two Frenchmen, Gustav Derosier ant
Peter DEVON, but as the country settled
up it became merely roadside taver,
instead of resort for cattle thieves
DEVON keeps the house, but about one
year ago Derosier disappeared. There
was no trace of his whereabouts until
his niece, Mrs. Raves, appealed to Sec-
retary Hunter, and search of the prem
ises disclosed that the unfortunate man
had become insane and was Gagged like a
wild beast in an old outhouse with>no
windows. A disgusting sight was dis.
closed when the door was opened. In
one corner of the filthy place was pile
of rags that served as bed, and on this
lay the gaunt form of an old man at least
TO- His only clothing was an under
shirt, and his long gray beard was
matted with the filth that covered his
body.
A vacant stare was the only reception
he gave the visitors, and he was so weak
that it was with difficulty that he was
able to draw himself to the door. He
caught glimpse of the brown foot hills
and the fields and tried to wander out
into the yard. but Devion took his old
partner by the throat and threw him
back into the den and shut the door
Devions story is that two years ago
Derosier began to lose his mind. when q
neighboring rancher named Simpson
persuaded the old man to deed him the
Red House property in consideration
that Simpson took care of him for the
remainder of his days. Simpson then
leased the hotel to DEVON and paid him
a small amount to feed Derosier. 1t is
believed Devion had hand in this plot
and that he and Simpson together have
absorbed the small estate of $4,000
which old Derosier accumulated. The
matter will be investigated at once.

cargo, which consists Of $4,000 bushels
of grain, is the first grain cargo shipped
from a lake port to Liverpool without
being rehandled. Her route was down
the lakes from Duluth, through the Well

Lawrence River and across the Allan
tic. The success of the voyage is evi
dence that the proposition to establish
direct communication between European
and other ports and the port of Chicago

The son was addicted to the use of
