CONGRESSMAN MCCLEARY has re-
turned to Washington a much wiser
man than when he left there three
weeks or more ago. Wiser, because he
has learned that politicians are not
what have seemed to his untutored
eye, and that while all men are not
liars a very much larger portion of
those who deal in politics are pre-
varicators than he had before believed
could be possible. Mr.. McCleary freely
admits that he made great mistake
in entering the senatorial contest, and
feels keenly the error he made in not
needing the advise SO kindly proffered
him before and at the outset of the
contest. 1t has been a school of edu-
cation to him in that he has learned
much of politics and the willy ways of
politicians. While to him this may
prove of value, it does not much lessen
the humiliation which his friends feel
at the course he pursued under all the
circumstances. The FREE PRESS has
always been friend of Mr. McCleary,
and it did what it could to prevail up
on him to steer clear of the breakers
against which he was being led by
false friends and misguided supporters
and the result has fully indicated
our note of warning. His was one of
those cases where misplaced conf
fidence controlled, and where the
allurements of higher honor gained
control of an honest ambition I'M
schooled in the art of political trickery
and untutored in the ways of men
who wear two faces exposed.

THE ST. James Journal thinks Rep
resentative Gutterson's measure for
the improvement of country roads is
a commendable one but doubts that
it will pass the legislature. Nothing
better has been offered. 1t is doubt
full if anything can or will be at this
time. So far as we have heard, those
who have given the subject any at
tention, acknowledge that a move like
that contemplated in this bill, is. a
step in the right direction. 1t does
not disturb the present condition of
affairs unless the people see fit to do so.
it would give towns which have been
the most progressive on this subject
a chance for something better if they
desire, and if it is taken up by a town
here and there and proves successful,
there is no question but that it will
rapidly spread. If those who have
been pushing the good roads question
would take hold of the matter, it
would seem there ought to be no ques-
tion of it's passage.

LEGISLATIVE WORK.

In the house Saturday Representa-
tive Staples introduced resolutions
providing for the suspension of the
granting of further mineral leases by
the state auditor until the legislature
has acted upon some of the recon-
mendations of the pine land commit
tee regarding changes in the laws
which will stop frauds in relation to
the timber thereon.
In the senate Senator Wyman in
PRODUCED six financial measures which
have for their aim the Strengthening
out of the finances of some of the
state departments. The most import
ant of these was the one appropriate
ing S250,OO0 to pay the revenue and
building bonds of the state now due.
The other bills were to cover defcien-
cies in various funds, and to transfer
to the general fund the surplus of
unused funds such as the school text
book fund. In relation to the bill to
cover the deficiency in the salaries of
judges, it is said that the old law
makes an annual appropriation for
this purpose, but has long since be-
come too small through the increase
of district judges, so that a deficiency
bill has been necessary before the
legislature for some time back. Mr..
Wyman's bill provided for an increase
to the standing appropriations so that
this will be unnecessary in the future.
Senator Pottgeisser introduced his
liquor license bill which is a sort of
high license, local option measure,
providing that the minimum license
shall be $500 in cities of 10000 or more
Inhabitants, and providing that the
councils of these cities may make the
license as much higher as they see
fit. 1t is expressly provided that the
bill shall not in any way interfere
with the operation of the local option
law.
In the house the senate resolution
of Senator Day urging the United
States senate to defeat the bill al
lowing pooling by railroads was made
the final order for next Monday at
HOO o'clock d. m. An attempt was
made on adjournment to get it eX-
tended over until Monday, but this
finally failed. 1t would be well if the
two houses would use this for prec-
edent for the remainder of the win
ter.

THE NICARAGUA CANAL SCHEME

The spectators and jobbers who are
behind the scheme to get the govern
ment to put up for the building of the
Nicaragua canal have at last succeed
ed in getting their bill through the
United States senate. This bill pldges
the credit of the United States to the
amount of $4,000, 900 for that purpose.
1t would seem that in the light of the
experience of the United States with
the Pacific roads, a matter which is
yet unsettled and which will doubtless
prove total loss to the government,
that congress would be moved to 90
somewhat slow in aiding enterprises
o be carried on by private individ
uals or corporations. And especially
so when the present condition of the
federal treasury is taken into con-
sideration, but the present congress
seems destitute of all business con-
siderations and apparently goes on the
plan that SO far as the government is
concerned, everything will come out
right in the end.

Little care is said to have been TAX
en- in the drawing of the bill, and
every amendment which would have
proven of any benefit in protecting
the government was voted down. 1t
is said that it is not known whether
$40, O00,0O0 will anywhere near COM
plete the ditch. 1t is claimed it will
take at least 100000, 900 to build it
and it might take two or three times
as much. If the United State goes
into the deal, of course it would have
to see the thing through, for it would
border on idiocy to throw away cool
seventy millions and leave the ditch
half completed. No one knows this
better than those who have worked
the deal up. They will recognize the
fact that with the government back
of them they have a good thing and
notorious Credit. Mobelier will be
but drop in the bucket compared to
the corruption which will be developed
in the tropical ditch.
Admitting that the canal is most
needed improvement, which some
question, the manner in which the
government is being drawn into it is
all wrong. If it is to be done by gov
eminent aid, then the government
should do it entirely itself, and dele
gate the Job to no one. There is no
doubt there would be enough jobbery
connected with it then, but it would
not amount to 1.-THE of what will be
the result through the method de-
signed by the senate bill.
That great advantages would result
to commerce from such canal is no
doubt true, but the scheme to secure
it is all wrong and ought not to be al
lowed to become law. If it must be
done let it be done by private capital,
or if the government mnst aid, let it
take control of the whole matter, sur
rounded by proper safeguards.

IN the house yesterday the move to
pass under suspension of the rules, the
bill appropriating 100000 to cover the
deficit at the state university struck
a snag and was sent to the committee
on appropriations. A resolution was
introduced to amend the state con-
stitution so that the Populist idea of
state grain elevator may be carried
out. Representative Knutson intro
duced bill to abolish capital punish
ment, and Representative Jones one
to amend existing laws so that county
commissioners will hereafter be al
lowed mileage.

THE PEOPLE rlUST CHOOSE.

The selection of United States
senators as now governed by constitu-
tional provisions is mockery and a
disgrace to a form of government
which assumes to guarantee equal
rights to all men. The voice of the
people is no longer a factor in the
election of a senator. Not only is this
true in Minnesota but it is equally
true in other states. Men elected to
the legislature to represent the senti-
ments prevailing in their communities
for a certain man for senator, are oft
times, through influences which are
sapping the very life out of our free
form of government, easily persuaded
to do that which the people in their
sovereign capacity would not for a
moment tolerate.
A change in the constitution is de-
manded by men of all shades of politi-
Cal belief who have the interest of
state and nation at heart. The peo-
pie, by popular expression, should
have the selection of a United States
senator confided to their immediate
control and not, as now, be obliged to
delegate so great and important a
rust to a few men, many of whom are
too weak to withstand the strong in
ducements held out to forsake the
manly course they are expected to
pursue.
The time has come when the people
must rise in their might and demand
change. The welded shackles of de-
signing politicians are rapidly entwin-
ing themselves about the necks of the
people, and unless shaken off soon will
absolutely choke the wind pipe of ex-
istence from the boosted freedom we
are guaranteed under the constitution,
and leave the people as helpless as
were the black, a half century ago.
When the high Office of United
States senator can be set up and
gambled off to the highest bidder as
it has been many times in the past,
and will be many times in the future
unless a change in the mode of cleo
tion is made, then indeed is it time to
cry aloud for halt.

THE St. Peter Journal rises to re-
mark that it would seem that a good
roads convention ought to be compos-
ed of farmers instead of merchants
and politicians. So it had, and there
generally are good sprinkling of
farmers in such conventions, and
their suggestions are among the best
made. But a merchant who is alive
to his business interests and the in
terests of his town, is as much in
terested in the good roads question as
is any farmer. AS to the politicians,
why should they not be interested,
Once in two years, at least, they have
occasion to use them and use them a
good deal, and then you know their
hearts go out for the "dear people,"

AFTER the last state convention the
FREE PRESS predicted that Governor
Nelson would be a candidate for
United States Senator before the pres
ent legislature and that Ex-Governor
Merriam would stand against Senator
Davis four years hence. The predic-
tion so far as Gov. Nelson is concern
ed has come to pass-the position of
the other gentleman will prove just
as true. The "dear people" have been
heard from in the selection of Nelson
to the senate and, bless their dear
souls, they will be heard from in a
like manner when VIM. r. thumbs
the button.

The senate Thursday elected it's
president pro tenn in the person of
Senator f. A. Day. Senator's Barr's
name was also presented for the honor,
but hequestion having been virtually
settled before the United States
senatorial election occurred, Mr.. Day
was chosen by vote of 36 to II for
Senator Barr and l for Senator
Stevens. Senator Days friends send
congratulations upon his accession to
the MISUNDERSTANDING of the
state of Minnesota. He is every way
worthy the high honor and will grace
the position with becoming dignity.
The common people," of which we
have heard so much of late, are being
abundantly recognized, and not least
SO by the choice of country news
paper man for ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS.
Governor Clough and Lieutenant-Gov-
ernor Day are good pair to draw to,
and add Senator-elect Nelson to the
combination and no ''full hand'' ever
yet dealt from the political deck will
be in it for moment on a ''show
down.. Frank, here's to your future
may your shadow never grow less, and
may your weather eye for the main
chance never become dimmed by
obstacles presumed but not visible.
Political fortunes favor the brave, and
as God loves his own, may the "com-
mon people," of whom you are one of
the chosen hosts, throw the mantle of
protection about your cherished form
and boost you to the highest pinnacle
of political fame.

THERE is good deal of agitation
going on in the different localities
in the county looking to the building
of creameries to operate the coming
season. The movement is good one
and the FREE PRESS hopes to see a
good creamery in each of the localities
as result of the agitation. We have
always maintained that no county was
better situated than Blue Earth, for
the carrying on of successful dairy
ing business, and we believe that the
general following of it will fulfill our
claims. Our farmers have made good
progress in the line of diversified
farming, and the adding of dairying
upon scale demanded by creameries,
would put them permanently on the
high road Of prosperity.

GOOD MEASURES TO KILL.

The attempt to got $1,000 out of
the state to help build smelter to
help convert our iron ore into pig iron
and steel is species of paternalism
which does not take we'll with the
people, and as might be expected, only
adverse criticism is heard of the meas
ure which was presented to the legis-
lature for that purpose a few days ago.
Two years ago bill was passed by the
legislature and became a law, provid-
ing for the building and operating of
state grain warehouse at Duluth.
This scheme was knocked out by the
supreme court decision which held
that the state can not under the con-
stitution, as it now is, enter the domain
of private enterprise. 1t would seem
that anyone conversant with this de-
cision would not have wasted time
and paper in drawing up such a
measure, and this bill, together with
the one which provides for the release
of the royalty on all iron ore mined on
lands leased from the state, and
smelted in the state, should be made
short work of by the committee into
whose hands they have fallen.
