Washburn option bill. The measure is
offensive to the board Of trade men of

Because a measure is offensive
to the board of trade men of Du-
luth and Minneapolis is no reason
why it should be defeated. But
the people need not expect much

that If you don't, an enraged public
will appeal to congress, and no matter
what the result to any Of US, legislation
will be had that will practically wipe
out of existence every board Of trade

that am not an Alliance crank; YOU
know that my sympathies are. with

point has been reached where steps

if your man Partridge is the Jonah,
you must heave him overheard. I am

DURING the past month the name
OF the editor of the UNION has
been frequently mentioned by the
newspapers of the district as a del
egate to the National Republican
convention. We have also received
proffers Of support from all Sec
tons of the district. To our
brethren of the press and other
friends we return our most sincere
thanks. But at the same time we
realize the fact that we are not Gin
touch" with the majority of the
Republicans of the district. We
are one Of those Republicans who
believe that the denomination
OF President Harrison would be
suicidal to the best interests of the
party-would be simply inviting
defeat at the polls next November,
The majority of the Republicans
OF the Sixth congressional district
are OF a different opinion. Hence
we will not be candidate for the
position Of delegate to the National
Republican convention. Let Mr..
Goodnow and the other Mime.
apolis bosses" select the delegates.
1t Mr.. Harrison is renominated the
UNION will accord him a loya

Is there veritable lake of fire
and birthstone in which sinners are
doomed to founder for all
eternity? is a question that is be
ing discussed by the press as well
as the theologians of Minneapolis.
The Tribune concludes that, "The
tendency of our age is toward
higher conceptions and largerideas
of human progress and destiny.
But let us not utterly condemn the
beliefs of the past. The narrow
est of them have had their mission.
But for those 'terrors of the law
which in the dark ages restrained
wicked men, the world would have
lapsed into utter barbarism. The
church has been the CONSERVATION of
civilization; from it's bosom have
sprung the highest forms of art,
learning and philanthropy"

A WE'LL informed Washington
gentleman, and by the way he
holds no office, either elective or
appointive, in personal letter to
the editor, writes: "With refer
ence to the newspaper report to
which you refer, to the effect that
Blaine said, If elected he could
not serve out half of his term on
account of his health, is absolutely
without foundation. I saw Mr..
Blaine only few days ago and
called his attention to this inter-
view and he said it was made out
OF whole CLOTH and entirely de-
void of truth. Mr.. Blaine's health
seems very good at present, and
should it continue, it would not be
at all strange if the convention
should rise in it's might and nomi-
nate him for president, and thus
save the Republican party" It
is our opinion, however, that Har-
rison will be renominated.
