KNUTE NELSON was formerly a low

KNUTE NELSON was formerly low
tariff man, and the Minnesota repub-
licans did not endorse him. He has
given assurance Of his accord with
the republican platform and is &C
cepted as the standard bearer of the
party in the old north state. He is
the political leader of the great body
of the Scandinavians and no man can
defeat him with the republicans OF
the state at his back. Minnesota is
booked for one of her biggest repub
lican victories this fall. This is dead
certain.

No congress in the history of the
latter half of this century has said so
much and done so little as the con-
gress now about to adjourn. Its leg
islation has been barren in idea, care
less in expression. faulty in method,
unwise in conception and most ex-
pensive to the treasury. Its like
having never before been observed it
is greatly to be desired that its fellow
will never be seen again.

TEXAS is not in condition to make
war on her carrying companies. The
state is too large and the lines of
transportation too extended and local
t-affic too light for these lines to max 9
Roadway against the intrenched op-
position of the state. To cripple these
carrying corporations is to cripple all
the energies of the state and set her a
generation backward, while more
fortunate states distance her in the
race for commerce and population and
wealth and national influence.

Col. HOWARD VINCENT, recently
elected to the British parliament,
owes his seat to his anti-tree trade
views, and says that the people of
Great Britain are weary of free trade,
for they see that under a protective
tariff the cost of living in America is
cheaper than in England, while wages
are n per cent higher. The Cleve.
land crowd can put this morsel of fine
cut tariff truth in their pipes and
smoke 1t.
