st. Paul Globe: The Chicago Union
League is talking about expelling Col.
breckenridge from; its honorary mem
bership. The club is certainly not hon
ored by having the kentuckian's name
on its rolls.
1t may be again IL question of casting

MIR. Bland proposes to renew the fight
with straightout free coinage bill.
which he ought to have done in the first
place and accepted no compromise.
Further. he ought to organize Il purely
free silver party in the next campaign.
and give the people q chance to express
themselves. So far during the prog
ress of this silver fight we have failed
to discover any general and spontane-
GUS uprising Of the people in behalf of
free and unlimited coinage. 1t seems
to US that if the alleged principle in
volved we're so vital to the dear people
they ought TO rise up en- masse and de-
lnand its immediate enactment into
law After all the enlightenment they
have enjoyed for the past ten years on
the silver question. il is marvel to us
that free coinage has not made more
.progressp provided the statements and
arguments of the silver advocates are
sound.
Judge Hayes, known as the amend
1nent-killer of Iowa, says the new liq
,,or law is unconstitutional.

The campaign for state officers seems
TO have opened already. The names of
Kirk Phillips of the Black Hills for
state treasurer and Frank Crane of
Watertown, r. S. Gleason of DeSmet
and o. ii. Taylor Of Armour for state
superintendent have been SHE'D into
the arena. MIR. Phillips is so far the
only candidate mentioned to succeed
w. w. Taylor and we have no hesitancy
in saying, thai he would be credit to
the ticket il nominated and would make
an irreproachable official when elected.

Poor old Doc Fish, who WAS driven
out OF Minnesota by Ignatius Donnelly,
and camped down in Aber. een with his
Great West, has been frozen out by his
compatriots there, who secured major

In al address To llle Republican Uni

versity club 81 Minneapolis the other
day, Gov. Mckinley summarized the
existing situation ~ follows:
We have goteverything in '94 that we
had IN W. except tprosprrity. The past
year has been one of compulsory educa,
tion. Everybody has been to school,
and, while there has been no tuition tc
pay, the general result has been very
expensive one To the people. We have
got the same men, we have got the
SAINT money, we have got the same
machinery that we had in ~. but We
have got y now management. we have
got TIC same push and the same Derse
verance, the same splendid manufacture
ing plants, but we have got a new man
ager and new engineer, and the engi
neer has not had any experience since
before the war;
