sTHE LOAD OF McKINLEYISM.'

The Minneapolis Times has been
trying to make itself believe that the
Republican party does not want
President Harrison re-nOminated. If
it keeps telling the story over often
enough it may yet become of the opin-
ion that it is true. Yesterday itsaid:
sit may be that the nomination o.
Harrison is inevitable, but if it shall
so prove it will be because no other
leading Republican can be found who
is willing to come forward and at
tempt to carry the load of Mckinley
ISM" However, the load will not be
such a heavy one to carry after all.
AS Gov. Mckinley well said at the re-
cent Ohio Republican convention, the
new tariff law is doing it's own talking,
and it is talking in manner that
spreads dismay into the ranks of the
free traders. They try to make out
through the editorial columns of
their journals that the prices of the
necessaries of life are higher than be-
fore the law went into effect, but
their news and advertising columns
prove the falsity of such assertions.
The load of McKinleyism is not bear
ing very hard upon the masses as is
attested by the following paragraph
which we clip from Edw. Atkinson's
article in the May Forum. He says:
''There has never been a period
in the history of this or any other
country when the general rate of
wages was as high as it is now, or the
prices of goods relatively to the wages
DIS low as they are today, nor period
when the workman, in the strict sense
of the word, has so fully secured to
his own use and enjoyment such
steadily and progressively increasing
proportion of constantly increasing
product
This is good testimony from one
whose sympathies naturally lean tow
ard free trade.
The Mckinley law is doing its own
talking, and is fast driving the enc
Kinley prices liar" from the field.
People are reaping advantages from
the working of this law which they
never enjoyed before and are begin
ming to recognize the cause from
which they flow. The load of Nc
Kinleyism is something that will tire
out the free traders instead of the
Republicans in this campaign.

CALLS A HALT.

On Monday the general conference
of the M. E. church at Omaha, unan-
imously adopted resolution opposing
the granting of money by the general
governmental the various churches
to aid their schools among the In
dianS. In the various church schools
the education impaired is more or less
of an ecclesiastical nature, and the re-
solution declares that the devoting of
public money for such purpose is
not in accordance with the principles
of the constitution and should not be
continued.
The FREE PRESS believes the Meth
odists have taken the right posi-
tion upon this matter. So long as the
government grants the various de-
nominations money to carry on their
work among the Indians, so long will
it always be a bone of contention
among them, and at the best will be a
promoter Of jealousy. If the churches
desire to do educational work among
the Indians they should be granted
every favor consistent with the gen.
eral policy of the government, but ey-
cry dollar appropriated by congress
for Indian education should be devot-
ed to schools carried on by govern
ment authority.
Oh,
work among the Indians they should
do so at their own expense, but pub
lie money should not be used to helI
propagate the creed of this or that
denomination, and the M. E church
is to he congratulated for the com
mendable action it has taken in the
matter

Deer Park And Oakland.

To those contemplating during the
coming summer trip to the mount
aims in search of health or pleasure,
Deer Park, on the dome of the Allie
ghany mountains, 5000 feet above the
sea level, offers such varied attrac-
tionS as a delightful atmosphere dur
ing both day and night, pure water,
smooth, winding roads through the
mountains and valleys, and the most
picturesque scenery in the Allegheny
range. The hotel is equipped with
such adjuncts conductive to the en-
tertainment, pleasure and comfort Of
it's guests, as Turkish and Russian
Baths, swimming pools for both ladies
and gentlemen, billiard rooms, su-
perbly furnished parlors, and rooms
single or en- suite, an uneXcelled cuis-
inc and superior service.
The surrounding grounds as well as
the hotel are lighted with electricity,
have cosy and shady hooks, meander-
walks, lawn tennis courts and grassy
Fairgrounds for children within full
view of the inviting yerandaS. Six
miles distant on the same mountain
summit is Oakland, the twin resort of
Deer Park, and equally as well equip
ped for the entertainment and accom-
mediation of it's guests. Both hotels
are upon the main line of the Balti-
more & Ohio railroad, have the adj
vantage of its splendid vestibuled
limited express trains between the
east and west, and are, therefore,
readily accessible from all parts of the
country. Season excursion tickets,
good for return passage until October
3lst, will be placed on sale at greatly
reduced rates at all principal ticket
offices throughout the country. One

THE strike that has been on for
some time on the part of the mill
hands of the lumber mills of La
Crosse, Wis, has finally been settled
the men accepting the terms offer
ed by the mill owners. The men have
gained nothing in this strike, but on
the other hand have lost much. The
thousands of dollars in wages which
they have lost through idleness can
never be regained, and as result
their families must be denied many
of the comforts of life. While on the
other hand, it is doubtful if the
trouble has been seriously felt in a IL
nancial way by the mill owners.
There may be times when strike is
justified. but before such a drastic
remedy is resorted to, all honorable
means of settling difficulties should
be exhausted.

A RESULT OF THE MCKINLEY LAW

At different times since the passage
of the Mckinley law the Democrats
have declared that an instance could
not be cited where wages had been
raised under it, and have ridiculed
the idea that the price of manufac-
tured products could be lowered and
wages increased at the same time.
In relation to this same point Mr.. Al
fred Dodge, of Dolgeville, n. Y, one
of the largest manufacturers of felts,
in the world, and who now has some
800 hands at work in his factory, says:
''Our friends of the free trade press
had good deal to say last year be-
cause | told you that on account of
the Mckinley bill / could increase your
wages about 123 per cent, and reduce
the hours Of labor to nine and half.
They pretended with an impudence
that was sublime that / was getting
40 per cent. more for the felt we make
and was making an extra profit of
over 100000 per year because of the
Mckinley bill, and the raise Of wages
of y per cent. was not near enough
and l should have given you much
more.
''All Of you know that we do not
get one cent more than we did before
for the goods which we have made
since the passage of the Mckinley
bill. On the contrary the price OF
some of our goods has been lowered
And with all that l find myself in &
position where l can raise the wages
of some Of you felt makers another II
per cent. this year because Of this
very Mckinley bill.
'How is thiS?' our friends, the free
traders will ask.
''Let me tell you how it is.
Because we have basis to worl
upon. We are no longer at the mer
cy of the importer of foreign felts
We can keep our machinery going tht
year around and know that our COM
petitor cannot sell any cheaper thar
we can unless he has superior meth
DDS of making felts.
''1f protection prevails, if we have
period OF rest from agitation so tina
we can conduct our business on tn,
basis of its present adjustment II
tariff laws, l believe that the hours o
work can be reduced within a year O
two to nine per day. | think you will
agree with me that this can be safel
done after the experiment and expe
rience of this year."

What land of song and story is
that surrounding st. Paul and Min
neapolis. The music and rhyme of
Longfellow's beautiful "Songs of Hia-
watha" are in the signing winds. The
soft, cooling air of summer, and the
fierce moods of winter in these high

brooks, in the road of the waterfalls,
and the majestic flow of the rivers;
the lakes, woodland and prairie, are

immortalized by Longfellow, is with

DAVIS HIS OWN SUCCESSOR.

The endorsement given Senator
Davis by the recent Republican State
convention, and the unanimity with
which that endorsement was express
ed, eliminates from the approaching
canvass all doubt as to the real wish
es of the rank and file of Minnesota
Republicans, as to whom they want
as the successor of the senior Senator
from this state. No more handsome
compliment could be paid cOnscien-
tious public servant, nor could an eX-
preston of confidence have been more
worthily bestowed.
For months the newspapers have
been filed with charges of an unhcly
combine having been made by certain
prominent Republicans for the over
throw of Senator Davis, and the yari-
Gus prominently mentioned candi-
dates for gubernatorial honors have
been quickly slated as in with or
against the so-called combination.
The FREE PRESS has never belived
that the reports contained any con-
siderable truth, and inasmuch as Gov.
Merriam, who has been the principal
target for envious malice and base
MISREPRESENTATION in all these reputed
jobs and schemes, heartily seconded
the endorsement of Senator Davis re-
election, it is entirely confident, as it
has all along been fully satisfied, that
so far at least as the chief executive
of state is concerned, he has been en-
tirely free from any endeavor to fix a
''slate" against the Senator.
That Senator Davis is the choice OF
an overwhelming majority OF his own
party for reelection cannot be truth
fully denied. That he is exceptionally
popular with those who may be term
ed common people" goes without
saying. He is one Of those plain, self
possessed individuals who knows no
distinction between the poor man and
the millionaire, and coming from the
ranks of the former his natural SYM
pathieS are with them. His public
career has shed lustre upan his state
and added laurels to his individual
worth, and it is creditable to the in
telligence of the representatives COM
posing the recent convention that
they took cognizance Of his abilities
to the extent of demanding mat he be
returned to the United States Senate
as his own successor. The action was
quite in harmony with the sentiment
entertained by the people, and it will
have the further effect of setting to
rest this periodically hoisted buagboo
of "a scheme to down Davis"
The duty of the Republicans is made
plain. ''Davis for United States
Senator" will be one of the campaign
issues that the Republican party need
feel no hesitancy in proclaiming and
fighting out on that line.

AS RECIPROCITY grows more and
more successful and gains in popu-
larity with people the wall of the
free trader grows more bitter, as is
witnessed by the following from the
ST. Paul Globe: Democracy can pit
tariff reform against bastard reci-
prociy and win hands down. Tariff
reform is honest; reciprocity is base
born political makeshift, the child
of party expediency.

has made deserves the thoughtfulcon-
