He Doth Protest.

Mr.. Biermann, state auditor Of
Minnesota, is falling into the habit
of taking the public, unsolicited,
into his confidence, in large and
expensive way. It is rather won
derful how confding Biermann is,
and how willing he is that he
should be recalled to public notice
about election time. He made a
personal explanation not long ago
in the matter Of pine land sales,
which had curiously got through
his office in a fashion that involved
large losses to the State. OF
course that was not Mr.. Bier
mann's fault, as he was quick to
show. And now, just as the State
is receiving the money due it by
bringing to book the purchasers

the scrutiny Of the State auditor,
and just, we may add, as election
draws near, he appears in won
derful statement intending to show
that Biermann alone and single
handed has stood between the
State and the rapacity Of a great
railroad corporation.
We have read the documents in
the case with great care, and they
seem extraordinary simple. They.
show that the Great Northern road
has been DESTROYS Of proceeding
with the selection Of lands under
it's land grant as rapidly as might
be, which is not criminal as far as
we can discover. They show that,
IN order to prevent its claims from
being barred by statute, the road
filed a list Of selections. This it
was obliged to do, as a matter Of
form, or sacrifice its future legal
rights, whatever those may be.
And that appears to be the whole
story; out of which Mr.. Biermann
constructs a wonderful tale Of his
ideal fidelity to the interests Of the
people, and his unapproachability
when great corporations are dis
playing their charms.
If all that is alleged in the
documents is true, it shows moth
ing but an ordinary conduct Of
public business on either side.
What all this fuss is about no one
who is not after a Populist or a
Democratic nomination, or both,
would not be able to understand.
We would only remind Mr.. Bier
mann that a man may ssprotest too
much.'' This painfully con
structed and unprovoked demon
stration of virtue, following the
pine land disclosures, argues a GER
tain over-anxiety. If Mr.. Bier
mann is really as good a man as
he says he is, which heaven forbid
that we should doubt, the people
would probably appreciate in more
If they were left to find it out
for themselves. He ought Ger:
tainly to be welcome to any repu-
tation that he can get from the
documents that he has just put
into circulation, as a bid for con.
tinuance in office and an offset tc

TERRIBLE railroads wrecks are.
almost daily since the
commencement Of the great strike,
and the railroad managers would
like to have the public believe that
the strikers are responsible for the
same. If the truth were known
nine tenths of the accidents are
caused by incompetent men who
have taken the strikers places.
The railroad managers are, in a
great measure, blamable for the
many catastrophes that have oc-
Cured within the past few weeks.
It is noticeable that no serious &C
cidents occur on the lines of the
Great Northern. When the strike
on that system was declared of
the old employees, all competent
men, were taken back. But then
the head Of the Great Northern
system is railroad man from the
ground up. The travelling public

HON. JOHN LIND, who is a free sill
yer man, says he feels endorsed by the
State Republican platform. On the
other hand Capt. Smallwood of this
city, also a free silver advocate, says
he cannot support the Republican
ticket on account of the unsatisfactory
character of the platform so far as sill
yer is concerned-Duluth Herald.
Mr.. Lind rightly interprets the
silver plank of the Republican
platform. But what has the gov
ernor or any other State officer to
do with the silver question? It is
a national and not State issue.

COY. NELSON AND THE RAIL
------ - - RO1 d - 49, =

The st. Paul Broad Axe, usually fair in it's
treatment of political opponents, revives the old
threadbare campaign canard that Gov. Nelson is
a railroad attorney. Gov Nelson never was a
railroad attorney-Princeton Union.
It is generally believed that Gov.
Nelson at one time was an attorney for
Jim Hills railroad. ii. The Broad Ace is
not in possession of information to the
contrary, but stands ready to correct
any misstatement it has made. Per-
haps the UNION can enlighten us.-St.
Paul Broad Ace. ..r. ....> -
In the first place it is no dis
grace to lawyer to be connected
with a railroad corporation. Rail
road companies do not hire petit
foggers to attend to their legal
business. Thomas Wilson and
Dan Lawler, both of whom have
been candidates for governor on
the Democratic ticket, are railroad
lawyers. Cy. Wellington, an able
lawyer and a Democratic cam
paigner, is a railroad attorney.
Two years ago Knute Nelson was
a candidate for governor. He
was accused of being a railroad at
torney by members of his own
party who were jealous of his
great and growing popularity.
The UNION of Dec. 18th, 1891,
contained an article in reply to
Mr.. Nelson's mali gners AN ex-
tract from the same may perhaps
enlighten the Broad lace:
The charge of being a railroad man
is old, threadbare and familiar. It was
first started and vigorously piled in the
Kindred campaign in 1882. The only
basis for it was this, when the Mani
toba railroad was being built from
Alexandria to GAINESVILLE, in 1879, Mr..
Nelson aided the company in procuring
the right-of-way, and in connection
with that matter tried three right-of.
way cases. Subsequently to this.
in 1880, he tried a personal in.
jury case for the company. Since then
he has done no work for the Manitoba
or any other railroad company. Ir
that campaign he stoutly denied the
charge, and his six years course ir
congress demonstrated that he was
anything but railroad man. In fact
he spoke and voted for the Interstate
Commerce law, and for the various
land grant forfeiture bills, reported by
the committee on public lands. Whe1
the Interstate law was assailed by vari
Gus railroad interests in this State he
defended it in vigorous speech a
