THE GOVERNMENT SHOULD ACT.
To Punish LibeIouS Statements
About Worlds Fair Awards.

w L
A national law Of libel would seem to be
necessary. Such law would prevent the
wanton attacks which are being made
upon successful com petiiors at the Chicago
Worlds Fair.
DR.. Prices Cream Baking Powder re-
ceived the highest award at the fair. The
award was for strongest leaveniDg power,
purity and general excellence. Proof Of
its bestowal is found in the official records S
as follows:

your favor of the 25th. will say that the
records of this department show that the

announced some time ago that an award

A New York baking powder company,
which did not even put in an appearance
at the fair, now libelOusly assails Dr..

assertions-due to malice, envy aud disap-

proved by the folio wing c0ncerninc it:

Will say that so far as the New
York powder is concerned. neither the
records Of this department nor the official
catalogue of the Worlds Columbian Expo
sltIOn show that the company referred to
was an exhibitor, consequently they could
not receive an award at the Worln's Fair.

GLACIAL FORMATIONS.
First of a Series of Lectures by
Professor lie COnte.

The first of series of lectures on sub
jects sc eniific was delivered by Profess or
Joseph LIE Conte in the assem- bly, room of
in the presence of an exceedingly large
audience. For the benefit of the general
public, and pore particularly for those
who interest themselves in such matters
and are not connected with colleges and
institutions of learning, this course of
lectures has been arranged, the next to
take place on Monday evening.
Professor LIE Conte, when called upon
TO lend his aid to the instruction and
education of the thinking public, after
giving his hearty assent, determined to
select subject which would be of uni
yersal import to those who might attend.
In his capacity of instructor In the State
University he became aware many years
Tered In the way OF popular and at the
same time instructive themes the greater
the amount of interest manifested.
His opening lecture, therefore, was de-
voted to the subject of "Gaciers," aud
ably indeed did he dwell upon the beau
ties and wonders Of natnre in this regard.
His remarks were illustrated with charts,
maps and photographs, which aided ma
tsrlallv TO the graphic descriptions and
rhetorical Journeys Of the eminent scen-
list. He first dwelt upon the formation of
glaciers in various portions of the earth,
their movements and Deculiari'ies. and in
various ways gave his attentive listeners
the benefit of his extensive observations
in scientific research.
OF course the glacial formations to be
found in various portions Of California
occupied a large share of attention, but
after considering these the audience was
carried to the Alps, to Greenland and 10
sections of the Arctic and Antarctic cir
ces, where glaciers most do flourish
Taken as a whole. the lecture was one of
the most entertaining delivered in years,
and the second of the series on "The
Glacial Epocb." to take place next MoD-
day evening, will doubtless prove fully as
interesting as the first.

The call for the Thirty-ffth dis
trict (Anoka and IsantD Republi-
can senatorial convention has been
issued, and the convention will be
held in Anoka August 23rd. The
Herald says: "
Anoka county claims the right to
name the State senator, having Repub-
lican votes in the ratio of IL to 9 as
compared with Isanti, the other county
OF the Thirty-ffth district. Isanti
wants the senator and claims that Anoka
promised to be contented with the rep
resentative this time if the Isanti poll
ticians would keep out of the fight four
years ago. However that may be-,
Anoka has majority and the dele
gates will be practically unanimous, so
the up-river county will probably be
compelled to take the representative
and give Anoka the senator. But if
Isanti is solid and can secure two votes
from this county the whole thing may
be changed. It is said that such a
scheme is on foot.

EDWARD j. DARRAGH, a St.
Paul lawyer, is the Democratic
nominee for congress in the Fourth
congressional district. The plat
form adopted favored compulsory
arbitration, and the currency plank
is as follows:
A sound, elastic and ample currency
is essential to the public welfare. We
demand such legislation by congress as
shall provide and maintain such cur
rency. We denounce the demonetiza-
tion of the silver dollar in the year 1873
by congress, while under the control of
the Republican party, as a blunder
equaling in it's disastrous consequences
the worst of political crimes; and we
favor such federal legislation as shall
place the silver dollar upon an assured
parity with the gold dollar and shall
admit both gold and silver to free and
unlimited coinage.

STATE LANDS.
Steps Being Taken by Senators
Davis and WaShburn To PRO.
tect the Interests of the
State

WASHINGTON Z Special, Aug. 4.
Senator Davis to-day introduced
and had passed a resolution calling
upon the secretary Of the interior
for full and detailed information
as to all the department records
and correspondence back to and
including the territorial days rela-
tive to the rights of the State of
Minnesota to the school lands In
Guided within Indian reservations
in the State, whether coded or not.
AS has already been published in
the Pioneer Press, a decision by
the general land office on the ques-
ton of the States right in the
premises has been prepared in the
appropriate division and is await
ing action. A like decision af
fecting the swamp lands has been
prepared and submitted to the law
examiners for approval. Inquiry
Of the chief law clerk to-day
elected the information that the
decision had not been examined as
carefully as it seemed to require,
as it presents several new and in
teresting points Of law. The
school land decision, involving
some Of the same points, will not
be submitted to legal inspection
until after the other has been
passed upon. AS has been ind1-
Gated, however, the decision is
practically in favor Of the State.
The passage Of Senator Davis res
olution may hasten the promulga-
ton Of the decision, and the pur-
pose of the resolution will have
been accomplished, as Senator
Davis only object is to conserve
the interests Of the State and the
public school fund. Until the
matter is decided, however, the
Baldwin bill for the sale of the
Chippewa pine will not be allowed
to pass the senate. On this both
Senators Davis and Washburn are
agreed, and the bill may 60 over
until the next session unless a
prompt reply is made. It will
also delay the opening to settle
ment of the the agricultural lands
in the coded reservations.

DULUTH Commonwealth: It is a
shame to American politics that
the house Democrats should intend
to vote to unseat a Republican
whom their own committee, itself
none too scrupulous in partisan
ship, has reported as entitled to
the seat. The merits of the case
has nothing to do with a contested
seat. If the seat is needed it will
be snatched away from the man
who was elected by any sort of a
trumped up contest. Even where
there is no need of it, the impulse
to "seat our man. is hardly re
sisted.

Why We are Republicans.

Editor Tribune: Will you kindly
give me, through your paper, five rea-
sons why you are a Republican, and
greatly oblige W. H. LYON.
Why Mr.. Lyon should limit the
number of reasons desired to five
it is difficult to imagine, since five
hundred good reasons for being a
Republican, in preference to be-
ing Democrat or Populst,
might be given. But we will Sc.
lect the first five that occur to us
in order to accommodate our cor
respondent.
We are Republicans, then, first,
because the Republican party is
the party Of loyalty and honor,
which saved the nation and lifted
up the flag when it was trampled
in the dust by traitors.
Second, because it is the party
Of law and order.
Third, because it is the party Of
honest money.
Fourth, because it is the party
of protection to American indus
try and American labor.
Fifth, because it is the party
which possesses the brains and
sagacity and business ability and
experience to conduct the affairs
Of the country wisely and prosper
ously. The Republican party adj
ministered the affairs Of the coun-
try continuously for thirty years,
with the exception Of four, during
which there was a Republican
senate to act as a check upon a
Democratic executive, and during
all that. time the country was pros
porous. In 1892 the people
elected an anti Republican presi-
dent, house and senate for the first
time since the war and since then
things have been constantly going
from bad to worse. This country
never had such hard times az since
the Republicans we're driven out
of power in all the branches Of the.
government and the people have
made up their minds that the only
way to restore prosperity is to. put
the Republicans back into power
again. They will do this just as
soon as they get a chance to vote.

WHEREAS, Lieutenant Governor, D.
M. Clough has presided over the DELHI
CREATIONS of this session of the senate
with impartiality and fairness, upon all
occasions, and has shown under all Cir
cumstances that he possesses the most
essential and highest qualities of mind
and heart for a presiding officer over
parliamentary bodies, therefore,
Resolved, That we hereby tender to
him the expression of our highest APP
probation and esteem and our best
wishes for his future prosperity and
happiness, and our sincere and earnest
hope that he may enter upon larger
fields of usefulness to the State and to
his fellowmen.
