POLITICAL NOTES.

When the Democratic legislative con-
vent:on OF the 46th district entirely ig-
norcd Mile Laos county in order to make
bid for Alliance and Peoples party
support by putting two Todd county
Alliance men on their ticket, the party
leaders thought no doubt that they
were doing some very shrewd political
work. But the third party people in
Mile Laos, Morrison and Crow Wing
counties are already in open revolt
against the mongrel ticket, and will re-
pudiate it at the polls. The ticket is
doomed to inglorious defeat.-[Brainerd
Tribune.
Knute Nelson, the old soldier. will poll
the largest vote ever given candidate
in Jackson county. He is man of the
people and started in life as poor as the
poorest.-[ Jackson Republic.
For thirty years the Democratic party
has done nothing but Cypress and op-
pose. 1t is destructive and not Gre
ative organization. 1t is essentially
minority party. The intelligent mind OF
the country must continue to regard it
as unfit to control or direct AFFAIRS

that he is not only one of the brainiest,

The Growth Of seaweed.

Seaweeds vary surprisingly in their
habits of life. Some species grow alto
qetber beneath the water, attaching
themselves below the lowest tide level;
others frequent heights where they are
left dry at every retreatlng tide' WINE
others vet are found in situations where
thew are scarcely ever covered by water
whereas most of them attach them
selves to rocks or solid bottom, keeping
to the shadows, there are exceptions TO
the rule, among which the most remark |.
able is the ''sergasso," or "gulf weed,
which floats on the surface of the ocean
Immense fields Of it are seen by tne
navigator, extending as far as the ey'
can reach. 1t is sometimes SO abundan
as seriously to interfere with the prog
ress of ships, and 1t was this which s.

1t is interesting, now that Cleve-
lands nomination at Chicago is an ac-
complished fact, to note what leading
Democrats say of the two pivotal states
in this years campaign. These two ut
terances were made a day or two be-
fore his nomination:
"Cleveland can't carry one side OF
New York" said Governor Flower.
"Cleveland will be beaten by 10000
in Indiana" said Ex-Governor Gray.
The following document, which wa
signed by every member of the New
York delegation to the National Demo
cratic convention at Chicago, is also o
considerable interest: 1.-THE delegate
of New York, with a deep sense of re
sponsibility to the democracy OF tn

What to Do with the Indians.


A writer in the American edition OF
The Review of Reviews is OF opinion
that the absorption Of the Indian into the
white race by admixture OF blood would
not under decent and orderly conditions
be debasing. There are, he says, 10000
to &c, 900 Sioux in the northwest whose
ultimate commingling with the white
race could not be regarded as a calam-
ity. Yet thirty years ago these same
Sioux were the worst of all the bad
Indians of the northwest, and the ones
at the bottom of the massacres in Min
nesota In 1852.
General Morgan, commissioner OF In
dian affairs, advocates industrial educa-
ton for young Indians as the necessary
preliminary to citizenship. They ought
not to be made citizens till they are
earning their living in some of the
white mans occupations. The best
trades for them at first are those which
remove them least from their free, out
door life. Farming and stock raising
are two Of the most available. Then
too, when we'll drilled and disciplined
Indians make dashing and gallant sol
diers, particularly in the cavalry arm o
the service.

it: "For governor he carried the
state by nearly $4,000. For president
