THE only congressman in Minnesota
opposed to the repeal of the Sherman
law is H. E. Boon, of the Seventh dis
trict. Mr.. Boon is making a record
before taking his seat-and it is to be
hoped that it is the only record along
the political lines already announced he
ever will make.

In AN interview with DR.. Walker, the
agent at Leech Lake. who had trouble
with the Indians at the agency, he il
quoted as saying:
The government will undoubtedly at.
tempt to arrest and punish all the Indi-
ans that have been guilty of the disor.
ders, as well as the wretches who have
been selling them whisky. When Mr..
Walker was asked what the result would
have been had an open collision broken
out between the troups and the Indians
he answered that the Indians would
have been about eight to one, and their
rifles and ammunition were superior to
those Of the soldiers.
Isn't this rather sad commentary
upon the practical workings of the ma
tional Indian policy? To permit these
troublesome wards of the nation to be
armed as indicated is enough to awaken
gravest approximations.

THE Republicans of New York are
taking time by the firelock. A conyen-
ton of republican leagues was held in
Saratoga during the week, and leading
delegate has this to say: "The
scandalous record of the last legislature
has done much to unity the republican
forces of this state. The democratic
rings violation Of tie principle OF home
rule has disguised independent democrats
and induced many of them to openly
declare allegiance to the republican par
ty. believe that the league convention
will arouse a public spirit which will re-
suit in the election Of a republican legis-
lature next fall. If We can make good
fight in November the decks will be
cleared for the gubernatorial campaign
in 1894. To that event the league looks
with every hope Of republican success"

The following dispatch from Long
Prairie will be regretfully read by our
citizens; many of whom entertain a
warm personal friendship for Mr.. Fisher:
Jacob Fisher. proprietor OF the Todd
County Bank, has made an assignment
The extent OF the liabilities is not known
at present, but he is indebted to the
county something like $4,000 to $751;
600 for funds deposited id the bank.
Mr.. Fisher was forced to close the
doors of his bank for want of ready
money, but it is thought that he will be
able to pay dollar for dollar in time-as
soon as he can realize on the paper held
by the bank.

Mn. CLEVELAND would do more to
strengthen confidence in business circles
by issuing a proclamation to convene
congress at the earliest possible moment
than by any other act within the presi-
Dental prerogative. Convince the coun-

rected effort viii be made to substitute
wise currency and coinage lawsfor those
now in force. and confidence will be
speedily restored.

Everybody is familiar with the ente.-
prise OF Chicago men, but few persons
outside their direct influence have learned
to appreciate the large share Chicago
women have in the public affairs OF their
city. Julian Ralph, in an article on
"Chicago's Gentle Side" in the July
Harper's Magazine, shows how much
the ladies of Chicago have done for their
less fortunate sisters and for the children
of poor, and to how large an extent the
city is indebted to them for its charitable
and reformatory institutions, for the
better care of the public health and the
more humane conduct of prisons and
almshouses. 1t is arecord ofenlightened
womanhood of which any city might
well be proud.

night to attend the reunion of the How
family at the home of his sister. Mrs.
Pulford, broke his leg at Staples and
was brought back on the first train.
arriving Saturday morning. Mr.. How
was crossing the platform at Staples to
enter the Duluth sleeper, the porter pre-
ceeding him carrying his grip. There is
a difference in grade IN the platform and
it being very dark Mr.. How was unable
to see where it dropped. He stepped and
fell, causing a compound fracture below
the right knee. DIR. Ellis of Staples was
summoned at once, and reduced the
fracture. Mr.. How was placed OH a
stretcher and carried to the baggage car
and brought home. His leg very
naturally PANIED him quite good deal.
1t will be SIX or eight weeks before he
will be out again. He was very much
disappointed in not being able to attend
the reunion, as the entire family, four
brothers and two sisters, were to have
been ent.-Fergus Falls Journal.
Mr.How is well known in this city,
where he has for years been an occasional
visitor. He is a brother of B. Willis

CHARLES EMORY SMITH, editor Of the
Philadelphia Press and recently Minister
to Russia, said in speech the other day:
The Democratic party "has very large
contract on its hands. 1t must settle
the financial problem, and it is pledged
to revise the tariff to a revenue basis
The money question is itself difficult, but
when it begins TO tinker with the tariff
it will unsettle business interests just as
the party's vacillation has already nm
settled finances. Our country is strong
enough to survive and prosper under
almost any system of taxation or admin
istration. The people would in time adj
just themselves to almost any change.
But before the Democrats can get new
tariff bill into operation another Con-
gressional election will be on. They
will be in the same position we were in
1890 after the passage OF the Mckinley
bill. The election took place within a
few weeks after the passage of the bill
and before any one could estimate its
effects. The result was Overwhelming
defeat for our party at the polls. Our
Democratic friends will have a similar
experience if am not mistaken. / have
no doubt about the election of Re-
publican President in 1896. 1t seems to
me inevitable"

MUST SUPPORT INSANE RELATIVES
TIE STATE IuNACY COMMISSION TO ENFORCE
THE LAW REGARDING REIMBURSEMENT


Albany Aug 27-The last Legislature authorized
the State Commission in Lunacy to appoint two
agents whose duty il shall be to secure from rela-
tves and friends who may D" liable therefor, or
who may be willing to assume the cost OF sup
port Of any such inmate OF state hospitals as are
being supported by the state, reimbursement, IN
whole or in part OF the moneys thus expended
This action was made necessary by the fact
that BEGINNING with October /. the State will as
sumo the entire cost Of the support or the de-
pendent insane. After that date county omciaiS

bursement from relatives VINO are iiap'e UT "p'e W

r. Ford jr Of Syracuse. and Lyman Robinson or
Matteawhn-have nearly completed canvass or
the ifycight counties OF the State affected by the
State Care act Their Investigations nave amply
confirmed the assertion OF the COMMISSION paseu
on It's previous knowledge. that the relatives OF
large number of the patients now IN tne state
hospitals as n public charge have HERETOFORE al
thougb ohupdantlv able and many OF them legally
liable evaded the payment OF their just Obligations
10 the State This has not only been great IN
Justice to the taxpayers OF the State but mas I'M
qucstlonably contributed largely to the placing IN
the State hospitals OF many quiet, harmless pa
TENTS who might well have been cared Tor az
home
Under the central administration OF the Iunacy
laws Of the state It obviously viii no longer be
easy for these relatives Of the insane TO escape
their Just obligations. The policy Of the Commits
sion will be rcsolutely to insist that all patients
aying sufficient means shall pay for their own
support: also that relatives of patients VINO are
liable under the statute. and able. snail pay Tor
their support care Will be taken. however, INA,
only thos. who actually able shall ne rcpured

also that Of the Democrat Commissioner OF Pen

ship In these boards which composed solely
of members Of the medical profession in good
standing and It has therefore been prescribed and
ordained in order to prevent partisan medical ex-
aminati tons that all the members Of every medi-
cal examining board shall also be members or
the Democratic party. except In cases where IL
may be found impossible to muster three Demo-
cratic doctors In such cases the appointment OF
one Republican member of the board will be toll
Grated
II is also reported that Democrats who were
members of such boards heretofore will not be
eligible for appointment under the new dispensa-
ton BY strict observance of the new regua-
tons ii will be perceived the boards will be purged
of all members who might be hampered by pre-
cedents experience or knowledge of the pension
laws and regulations in carrying out the hos'ie'
severe and arbitrary instructions and rulings OF
the new Administration. Thus far 1t Is said only
about three in every 100 appointments OF members
of the new boards have been bestowed upon Repub-
licans 1t is thought that friction will be avoided
bv the new plan The new order Of things seems not
to have been generally understood by Senators

Most Of them have been in the habit OF recon-
mending one Republican for each board. as was
