St. Paul. July 3. = At the jewellers

there were about forty-fve persons pres

state 1t was called at the instance Of
Mr.. Newton Dexter, secl etary of the New
York State Business Mems association,
its object being the formation of a state
organization for mutual benefit and pro-
lection. Matters relating to the jewelry
trade We're discussed, particular attention
being given to the frauds that are prac-
ticed upon the public by dishonest manu-
facturers and others. It was urged that
q state law was necessary as well as
congressional legislation. In European
countries such frauds are not permitted,
and d violation of the law is punished by
:: heavy penalty. In this country all
manner of deception is practiced and no
redress is possible. When the matter had
beer somewhat enthusiastically discussed
a committee of five was aeppointed, with
e. 3. Myers of st. Paul as chairman
the others being from different portions
of the state-for the purpose of address

the tariff debate. 1t is expected that the
final vote previous to returning the bill
to the horse will be taken before adj

agreement to this effect, but senator's

can be accomplished. The Democrats

IT pays the farmer to patronize a
creamery, and daily evidence is ac-
cumulating to prove the fact more
and more effectively. Freedom, the
premium creamery county of the
state, is rapidly increasing in mem
bers and patrons, and what
testimony has been given the public
all leads to one conclusion-that the
cow product is decidedly valuable.
Nels Lawson, patron Of the Clark's
Grove creamery, located in Freedom
county, received $46.35 net each from
his Il cows last year, which, with
skim milk, would bring the receipts
up to fully $50 per COW for the year.
This beats raising grain, and besides
the farmer has weekly or monthly
income the year around.

THE jury On Saturday brought in a
verdict of guilty against Floyd boys at
Minneapolis and they will receive SEN
tence today That the verdict is a
just one, no unprecedented person who
has followed the case in court, will
question, The only difference be-
tween them and Scheig seems to be
that the latter was in a position to get
hold of the swag, but they were the
willing recipients thereof, and justice
stands appeased with their conviction.
Theirs is case which ought to stand
out as warning to all young men,
that an honest straight forward course
in life is the best to follow. The
Floyd boys started life with good
prospects ahead for them. They had
money left them, but from all
accounts not too much, and every
thing was such as to encourage them,
it would seem, to build UP not only a
fortune, but reputation for strict in
tegrity. And from all reports they
were competent to manage the bust
ness their father left them. But
they chose rather more fast life, dis
sipated the funds left them, lost their
business and became entangled in the
messes with wholesale defaulter,
and prison cell and wrecked lives
follow as a natural sequence. The
way of the transgressOr is hard.

THE Northeastern Chronicle, while
looking with some suspicion on Lord
Rosebery the new English premier,
in connection with home rule matters,
is not disposed to criticise until he
has had chance to show his hand 1t
holds that the only possible manner
for him to keep in power is to adhere
to the policy of home rule, and that
as soon as he in any way abandons it,
the various factions of which the
liberal majority is composed will
dissolve. 1t thinks there need be no
misgivings as to the future OF home
rule, as it has gone too far to go back.

SOME of the Democratic papers
state that the desire of the Republic
ans to use the Bland bill as a cause
for delaying the tariff bill, will not be
gratified. They entirely ignore the
fact that the desire for delay is not OF
Republican origin, but comes from
Democratic sources. Had Senator
Sherman's motion prevailed the
Bland bill would have gone to the
finance committee and there quietly
slept until the tariff bill was out Of
the way, and no one knew this better
than Mr.. Sherman. The opposition
TO this move came from Democratic
senators. The Republicans will not
favor the tariff bill, and will do what
they can along legitimate legislative
lines to defeat it: but from the time
of its first appearance before the
house they have resorted to no meth
DDS OF unnecessary delay, and Senator
Sherman states that SO far as he knows
no such methods will be countenanced
by Republican senators.

SOME of the free silver papers are
pointing to the recent statements of
eX-President Harrison regarding BIZ
metalliSm as great gain for the cause
of free silver. We fail to see where
the stand he has taken in his recent
public utterance is at all different
from the position he has heretofore
occupied, or which the Republican
party occupies. He is in favor of the
free coinage of silver at such time
as it can be brought about without
danger to our financial system. And
this is exactly the position which the
Republican party occupies. Mr.. Har-
risOn, while president, showed his
friendlinesS in this direction by bring
ing about the international monetary
conference at Brussels. But it was
then too early to accomplish anything
in this line. as the United States was
taking care Of such large share OF
the worlds product that the other ma
lions of the world did not feel obliged
to help us out. But matters are now
taking a somewhat different turn, and
from time to time reports come from
the old world that the cause Of BIZ
metallism is looking up. The repeal
of the silver purchase clause is begin
ming to have the effect that was pre-
dicted for it, and the probability is
that the nations which declined to en-
ter into some agreement with the
United States for the use of silver
which would give final dis
posal to the question, will yet be
knocking at our doors for conference
upon the matter.

THE Minneapolis Times says the Re-
publicans are merely whistling to keep
their courage up, and it processes to
see signs of dissolution of the grand
old party everywhere. The dear old
Times should try and compose itself
and keep it's pulse from fiuttering as
much as possible. 1t is undoubtedly
a mild case of spring fever, and if
carefully watched will not prove seri-
Gus. The evidences of approaching
dissolution which it notices in Repub-
lican ranks are not at all alarming.
With elections from local to national
all going in favor Of the Republicans,
the symptoms which it processes to
note are not dangerous, except to De-
mocracy. If the Times could but once get
it's green goggles off, the yellow jaun-
dice out Of it's system, and take again
full long breath Of Republican pros
perity, it would see things more as
they are, and as they appear to the
people in general.

PROPHECY FULFILLED

The following extract from speech
OF the late James G. Blaine, delivered
in October, 1890, reveals the prophetic
vision Of the great statesman. and how
closely he described the results of free
trade ascendancy:
1.-The great southern wing of the
Democratic party are determined TO
establish the doctrine OF free trade
in this land. They will be assisted by
their northern allies. The fight is
now on. There is a great body OF Wis
iOnary but educated men VINO are en-
plOyed day by day in writing free trade
essays and arguments in favor of CHAT
doctrine, which find their way into
every newspaper in this land. The
great body OF our people have never
experienced themselves the SutferingS
which always result when the protect
i've principles are laid aside. Poisoned
and excited by the wild statements Of
these writers and the demagOgic dp-
pealS of Democratic speakers: the re-
suit will be that in the very near flu
ture these forces which are now work
ing will be strong enough to defeat at
the polls the party advocating the
doctrine OF protection. 1t must iney-
itably follow that uncertainty and
doubt will ensue. The business men
Of the country, fearing the destruc-
ton of the principles OF protection,
will decline to engage in business, con-
sequently mills will shut down, and
the workingmen will be thrown out Of
employment. The people will then
see as they have never seen before,
that they cannot be prosperous and
have work while this principle is
ahreatened. In the midst OF their
suffering they will learn that the only
way they can be prosperous and happy
is to vote for the party that has built
up the industries by which they have
gained livelihood: because they will
see clearly that when the mandatory
is shut down there is no demand for
the only thing which they have TO sell
and that is their labor"

A REPETITION OF HISTORY.

In an able editorial under the head
of 'Then and Now the Murray
County Herald contrasts that "period
of prosperity following the enacting
of the Walker tariff" which Demo
Gratis are so fond of referring to, with
the present condition under threaten
ed free trade The Herald shows that
the prosperity which followed the
Walker bill was in no sense due to
that measure: that the prosperity was
stimulated by other causes entirely.
The Irish famine opened up market
for agricultural products; the Mexican
war caused the expenditure OF large
sums of money, which was felt in bus
mess circles: the discovery Of gold in
California, in 1913, added millions to
the wealth of the nation and had It's
effect: added to this was the Crimean
war which closed the ports Of the
Black Sea and gave to America the
monopoly of supplying the needs Of
the continent with agricultural pro-
ducts.
But the facts regarding the ele-
mentS of this prosperity were as total
ly ignored by the Democrats Of that
day as they are at present, and in 1854
commenced clamOr for still further
reduction Of the tariff, This was car
ried out, and then, says the Herald,
-" commenced an era of which the
present is an exact parallel-an era Of
CLOSED factories and open soup houses,
manufactures crippled, industries pros
trated, an era OF individual bankrupt
Icy and national diShOnor."
The Herald then quotes from Hunts
Mogdzine free trade journal, show
ing the business depression which fol-
lowed the further reduction of the
tariff. How commercial embarasS-
ments thickened, confidence was Shak-
en-, and all classes were made to real
ize the insecurity of worldly posses
SiOnS. 1t further quotes from the
New York Tribune Of different dates
III 1000, ollON my UllC WHY
distress prevailing, and many of the
scenes depicted are similar to those
which have been described in the met
ropolitan papers during the past
winter. In closing, the Herald says:
During this fourteen years, claimed
by free traders as the Augustan era
of this nations prosperity, the bal
aance Of free trade against Us was more
than $40, 100000, and the exports OF
gold exceeded the imports more than
S430, 000,0C0.
ooh, yes; it was happy era. We
have now it's blessed counterpart. In
its contemplation, however, the
thoughtful citizen will appreciate full
ly the feelings Of that Kentucky Dem
Ocrat who recently wrote an Ohio
manufacturer:
We of the South have been trying for thirty
years to get control of the Government We
succeeded at last, and have held it for about
year, and now if you id Republicans will take
1T off our hands YOU are welcome to it. y

They Had Nothing To Saw

Chicago Inter Ocean: Congressman
Hepburn, Of Iowa, made a good point
IN the pension debate yesterday. He
mace the assertion that the late con-
federate states contributed not one
dollar toward the payment of pensions
OF union veterans, and followed this
by statement that OF the $130, 900, 900
internal revenue taxes the south paid
less tnan S9OOO,00O; OF the sly 100000
customs receipts, only $4,000 900; and
Of the miscellaneous receipts less than
s., OUO,0OO. In return the south is paid
S9,OOO,0J0 in sugar bounty, S5,000,00O
in pensions, and S5,000,000 as deficit
in postal receipts This was center
shot and there was no reply.
