He might have had it this time, per-

honor in it next time, in proportion to
the votes, but the opportunity for

prosperity begins when he rides,

a good watch. A "poor" watch is
the very badge of poverty, worse

too expensive for a poor man: ne

dition. And so it has. But above
and beyond all, one of the most i'm
portant features that has inspired
this confidence in Mankato and Man
kato business men in times like these,
has been the honor and integrity that
has always been manifested in all
commercial and Industrial transac-
tions. Sharp practices and tricky
dealings may win for the day. but
never IN the long run. Fair and hon.
orable dealing always stand the
stretch of time. This is the fOunda-
tion upon which MankatO is built and
is the reason why our city has passed
mistaken through the late storms.
For this our business men are to be
congratulated. Where integrity,
skill and good Judgment abound, con
fidence will always repOse.

OPINIONS DIFFER.

The Minneapolis Times breaks into
a passion and gets warmer under the
collar than the weather, because hav-
ing stated that there was now an at
torney general who would like to pro-
coed against trusts, the FREE PRESS
asked why he didn't. We sympathize
with the sensltiveness of the Times
under the circumstances, but that is
no reason why that sheet should get
abusive simply because we asked
plain matter-offact question. The
Times tries to get out of the difficulty
by saying that Gov. Nelson stated on
his reputation as lawyer at the anti
trust convention that case could
not be maintained in court under the
Sherman antitrust law The FREE
PRESS has due respect for the legal
opinion of Gov. Nelson, and it believes
that he expressed his honest opinion
in the matter. But the Times well
knows that good lawyers will differ
regarding points of law. Some of the
best lawyers in this country have CIV
en- it as their opinion that there is suf-
ficient power in the Sherman silver
law to break up every trust in this
country. There are also others equal
ly as learned who will join with Gov.
Nelson in the belief that case could
not be maintained in court under it.
1t is probable that no important law
was ever placed upon the statute
books, that did not similarly divide
the opinion of leading lawyers. 1t is
also true that there was probably new
er law of any such nature put upon
our statute books which did not have
it's weak points, that had to be rene
died by further legislation. 1t is not
probable that the Trainer of any like
law would claim it to be absolutely
perfect because all the eXigencies of
such case cannot be fOreseen. But
the weakness can soon be made ap-
parent if the matter is brought into
court. All that is claimed by Gov.
| A'NASOh ohu OohCIS 1CSd UlC lho-
bility of maintaining case in court
under the law may he true. but it
does not furnish sufficient excuse for
the attorney general to decline to
commence suit against trusts.
1t is not his duty to de-
eide whether law stands
or not; that duty belongs to the
courts. If he would show up the al
legged weaknesses of the law in the
courts they could be strengthened
during the coming session of congress,
in which the dominant party is pledg-
ed to do all in it's power to destroy
| trusts.
The FREE PRESS believes that the
Mr.. Olney's predecessor made mis-
take in not proceeding against trusts
under the law, but that is neither
here nor there with the duty of the
present administration, which is SIM
ply to redeem the pledges it has made,
not the least important of which is to
remove the abuses which arise from
the concentration of capital.

OFFENSIVE PARTISANSHIP.

The North, referring to the removal
of Norman Perkins from the superin-
tendency of the tenth division Of the
railway mail service, points out pos
sible result of Mr.. Cleveland's term,
offensive partisanship::"
A superintendent of the railway
mail service of this city has been dis
missed from the service, the only
charge against him being that OF of
fensive craftsmanship"
And even that the gentleman in
question demurs against, claiming
that though an unadulterated Repub-
lican, he has in no other shape or
manner allowed his political opinions
to get the better of his Judgment or
to interfere with his duties as loyal
and efficient servant of Uncle Sam.
"Offensive partisanship"-the term
is a most cunning one. Mr.. Cleye-
land coined it, we believe, during his
first term, but harmless as might
have been it's application by him per-
sonallY, when left to an ambitious
postmaster general, there is no saying
what its Interpretation will lead to.
One thing, however, ought to be
certain. In this era of civil service
reform trusted, efficient and tried
employe of the government should not
be subject to removal without good
cause. And if offensive partisan,
ship" is to be such cause, it must be
so fragrant in it's nature, so virulent
in it's utterance, as to virtually unfit
him for his official duties.
Otherwise, the proceeding amounts
in fact to nothing else than contis.
cation of a government employees
freedom of speech and political &C.

WILL NEET IN AUGUST.

President Cleveland has finally
changed his mind and Yielded to the
voice of the people and called an ex-
ira session of congress to convene
Aug 7th. The president has done
well. 1t might have been better had
he made the date a little earlier but
Aug. It'll is so much better than the
middle of September that the people
will not complain. The sentiment of
the country is flowing,in an irresista-
BILE stream in a demand for the re-
peal of the Sherman law. While it
has been something of question
whether congress would repeal that
measure or not that doubt seems to
have been dispelled since the suspen-
sion of free silver coinage in India,
and all but the more hopeless of the
silver cranks see that under present
conditions the case of silver is hope
less and that to get free coinage of
that metal there must, be some gen.
eral agreement arrived at by the lead
ing nations of the earth. While the
general opinion seems to be that the
surety of the approaching session with
the undoubted repeal of the silver law
will cause confidence to strengthen, it
will not in all probability arrest the
downward tendency of the price of
silver, as the repeal of the Sherman
law will throw "a, O0O,O 900 ounces of sill
yer upon the market that has been
annually absorbed by this country
and will weaken it still further. 1t
is probable, however, that this move
will cause the nations of Europe to be
willing to enter into some agreement
with the United States. which will re-
suit in practical settlement of the
silver question.
