1t is not at all improbable that the
problem of cheap transportation for
farmers is more likely to be solved by
electric than by narrow-gauge steam
railroads. An electric road could be
built, says the New York Post, and
equipped with power for $5 900 to 1000
per mile with an annual cost for opera
tion of about $3.50, per mile. Such a
road could carry from the farms to the
steam railway station five times as much
produce as the farmers could produce,
and this excess of cost and capacity is
the present great obstacle to its success.

STATE OFFICIALS.
The political conventions which are

The political conventions which are
declaring for the money of the consti-
tuition are not talking to the point.
Gold and silve are the money of the con-
stitution, and everybody want to have
both kept in circulation, if this be pos
sible. The frse-coinage men say that
gold would remain in the currency if
the mints were thrown wide open to
silver, while the opponents of free-coin-
age are convinced that free-coinage
would drive gold out and in other ways
ways result tdisasterously for the country.
This is the situation exactly and it is be-
heved the anti-free-coinage men have
all history and precedent to support
their opinion. But. conventions that
are demanding the "money of the con-
stitution" would act more honestly if
they came out plainly and told what
they want.

New ORLEANS, May 2.-Sheriff o. H.
Luna, of Searcy county, Ark, repub-
ican, collected several thousand dollars
in taxes recently, and with companion,
J. O. Hollis, came here on a big spree.
They drank fine liquor, treated all COM
ers, bucked the tiger, and wasted the
public funds in all manner of rietous
living. Luna's bondsmen took him in
hand on his return to Searcy county,
and found that he was short $4,000 OF
state money. Hollis was arrested and
disgorged 5000, but the rest of the cash
is gone. Luna retains his office, but
will not collect any more takes.

THEIR TRUE COLORS.

Some time ago the Minneapolis
Times became somewhat wrathy be-
cause the FREE PRESS alluded to the
Democratic party as free trade or
ganization. 1t declared the party
was not for free trade, but tariff re-
form, whatever that may be. The
FREE PRESS called its attention to
the free trade book of Henry Georges
that was being published in the Con-
gTessional Record as the views of a
number of number of Democratic
members upon the tariff question,
and that this was done for the pur-
pose of getting it printed and circu-
lated for Democratic purposes at pub
lie expense. The Times, however, has
not objected TO the circulation of this
free trade literature 1t will be a
somewhat difficult matter for the
Democrats to deny the fact that they
are not for free trade pure and simple.
The book advocates the abolition of
all custom houses and all taxes on
WHISTLES and tobacco, and favors the
raising of all public revenues by single
tax on land. The work has been en-
dorsed by the Democratic committee
which is sending out circulars in re-
lation to it. This circular states that
these books are going out at the rate
of 900 per day under the congress
mans frank. To show how they are
willing to defTaud the government,
we quote the following from the Cir
cular: ''As the books are sent out
under the congressman's frank, the
Democrat or single tax propagandist,
who gets bundle has ready means
Of sending to his protection acquaint-
ances the most effective and interest
ing of free trade arguments, by
merely writing the address and mail
ing the document"
1t will be noted that the committee
acknowledges the book to be purely
for free trade. and favors the general
circulation of it. There is no allusion
TO tariff reform, but the people are
asked TO accept it for just what it is.

ALREADY estimates are being made
upon this seasons wheat crop, and it
is having, to a certain extent, its
effect upon prices. 1t is said that
prospects for heavy crop in Europe
are not of the most favorable charac-
ter. Those having most experience
in such matters claim that the crop
in this country will iu all probability
fall considerable short of what it
reached last year, and it would be
rather strange if their predictions are
not sustained by the results. In the
meantime the spectators will reap
from every possible advantage that
can be taken, while but comparative
ly few farmers will receive any bene-
fit that may be derived from a rising
market, though undoubtedly the
number that would be so benefited
is greater than in previous years.

THE Kasson Republican says that
about So per cent of the deposits in
the First National Bank of Kasson,
amounting to upwards of $3.50, 900,
has been placed there by actual farm
ers." 1t is pretty safe to say that the
calamityites won't trouble Dodge
county with their pessimistic stories.
They would provoke too broad smiles
upon the face of the farmers. The
Republican also states that beside
these deposits they have fine farm
buildings in the place of makeshifts of
a few years ago" and that fine horses
and large herds of thoughbred cat
tie can now be found where only scrubs
were kept 10 years ago, and so the
evidence of prosperity accumulates on
all sides, and every day we are re-
minded of the fact that Industrious
and economical habits are doing more
to abolish poverty than law will ever
accomplish.

Col. REEVE is back from Russia,
where he went to superinterd the dis
tributiOn of Minnesota IS contribution
to the starving peasants. He stated
in an interview that the food convey
ed TO that country upon the Missouri
would keep 10000 people until such
time as a new crop can be gathered.
This bit of information must be a
source of pleasure TO those who con-
trlbuted thereto. He says that with
the exception of England, the United
States is the only country that has
done anything to relieve the distress
among the people, and that the worst
of the famine there is not yet known,
and that the mere relieving of the
people from the pangs of hunger does
not eliminate the problem which con-
fronts that country ia the way of this
next years crop.

THE Wisconsin Republicans state
in their platform that they regard the
educational issue" of 1890 as per-
manently settled. This is practical
acknowledgement that they were
wrong in 1890 and that their defeat
was merited. The Republicans posi-
tion upon that issue was just one,
and had not religious prejudices been
aroused by the grossest misrepresent-
ations on the part of few profession
al politicians, they would have been
successful. 1t has not been the GUS
tom of the Republican party to accept
defeat as the settlement of any great
question effecting public interest.
Its great cardinal point has always
been that nothing was settled until
settled right. They have always bat
tied with this idea in view, and right
here has always been the secret of Re-
publican strength. The Republicans
of Wisconsin have not added to their
strength by there surrender OF this
great principal. 1t it most humill-
ating backdown, and it hardly seems
possible that it represents the views
of the rank and file of the party OF
that state.

NUMBER As
A CLEAR CUT PLATFORM.

The platform adopted by the Re-
publican State convention Thursday
is an admira BILE reflection of the poll
cy of the party. The policy of pro
lection to American labor, American
industries and American homes" is
endorsed. The position of Minnesota
Republicans upon the question Of
reciprocity is clearly defined. The
position taken is one which will meet
the appreciation of the farmer, the
manufacturer, the merchant and the
wage Garner. 1t calls for the enlarge
ment Of 1.-The markets for the pro-
ducts of our farms and factories with
out increasing the competition which
tends to destroy our home markets
and degrade our labor" 1t is this
very feature of reciprocity which
makes it so popular among the peo-
pie, and SO hated by the free traders.
The financial plank has the ring of
the honest dollar for which it de-
clares. 1t calls for an abundant cur
rency based on gold and silver This
is the position which the party has
always maintained. A currency for
the people, and not the issuing of a
dollar which will give large per cent
profit TO favored class, while it de-
grades the currency in general.
A free ballot and a fair count is
called for, and a decreased represen-
tation in congress and the electoral
college demanded. if this right con-
tinues to be denied. The soldiers are
remembered and our senators and rep
resentatives in congress thanked for
their labors in behalf Of the improve
ment Of the waterway to the sea. The
wise, businesslike and courageous adj
ministratie,' of President Harrison
was given. ghe hearty endorsement
which it deserves.
The Republicans of Minnesota have
spoken well. There is no attempt to
straddle question or beat around
the bush, but they have defined their
position in fearless and outspoken
manner, and in the impending politi-
cal struggle will be found in the front
ranks battling for the best interests
of the nation.

WORLDS FAIR NOTES.

Chauncey NJ. Depew has been elect
ed president of New York's World S
Fair board. Commissioner Gorton W.
Allen is vice-president.
A monster panorama AS feet long
and 81 feet high, representing the
Bernese Alps, with the Jungfrau in
the background, has been painted for
exhibition at the Fair. A private eX-
hibition of the work was recently
given to the press in Berlin.
The steamship lines covering the
west coast of South America, have
agreed to carry government exhibits
free and private exhibits at half price
as far as Panama. Passenger rates
also have been greatly reduced.
1t is reported that one hundred tons
of exhibits for the Exposition have
already been collected and are await
ing shipment at Lima and Callao.
The lofty stone monolith, which
Wisconsin will exhibit at the Fair,
will remain at Jackson park per-
manently, the park commissioners
haveng given thier consent. The
monolith is 107 feet high and cut from
solid block of stone. The contract
for it's erection has already been let.
Baron de June's valuable collection
ofp rehistoric relics, it is believed,
will be secured for exhibition at the
Fair. 1t comprises many rare speci-
mems from caves in France. DeMaret,
who made the collection, spent twen-
ty-five years in the work.
Owing to the recent increase of
Great Britain's Worlds Fair appro-
priation to $500, 900, British exhibitors
will not be charged for space, as at
first determined.
President Diaz has recommended to
the Mexican congress that Oct. 18th
of this year be made national holt
day in commemoration of the landing
of Columbus in the new world. He
says in his message that the work of
collecting is progressing rapidly, and
that display of Mexican troops will
be made at the dedicatory exercises.
A company from the national mill
tary institute of Columbia, South
America. was to attend the EXPOSE
tion and camp on the Worlds Fair
grounds. The proposition to give the
company camping space in Washing
ton park close by the grounds, is now
under consideration.

THE Republican State convention
at st. Paul Thursday was an enthus-
iastfc one and everything passed off
in a most harmonious manner. 1t
did its work well and selected a good
delegation to represent the party at
Minneapolis. Its platform utter
ances are sound, brief and to the
point. Senator Davis was present
and presided over the deliberations
of the convention and delivered a
mastery speech outlining the prin-
ciples of the party and the position it
will occupy in the campaign this year,
which was enthusiastically received.
The campaign is opening up in most
suspicious manner for the Republic
ans, and everything augurs well for
an old-fashioned Republican victory
next November.

BRADsTREET's says editorially that
1.-The United States is the most pros
porous country on the face of the

trade journal was trying tn make out
that because England had surplus
last year of some $4,000 over its eX-
penses that it was much more pros
porous country than the United States
However, if the surplus was an in
dication of prosperity the United
States could show itself several
lengths ahead on that basis.

SPEAKING of the immigration ques-
ton the Minneapolis Times thinks
there is need of legislation along that
line, but says that congress seems to
hesitate about taking hold of it with
the Intelligence and energy necessary
to bring it to speedy and satisfac-

trouble with the present congress
upon every question:. The present
House doesn't seem to be burdened
with intelligence in regard to any pub
lie question.

: Poor old Democracy is having a
a hard time in trying to solve the
presidential nomination riddle. Since
the war that party has not dared go
outside New York for its candidate,
and it is afraid to do so this year.
But its two bosses in that state are
quarrelling so that to take either
means overwhelming defeat. Out
side it has no leader who exhibits any
particular strength within New York,
and without its electoral vote, VIC
tory in impossible, and so it drifts
about like ship without rudder.

Democratic managers to dish up what
ever sized majority is needed.

THE New York legislature seems to
follow the usual consistency of Demo
crazy. 1t made an appropriation to
the Worlds Fair, but by its vote de
manded that the Fair should be
closed on Sunday. Then it turned
around and voted $4,000 to a histori-
cal museum on condition that it keep
open on Sundays.
