OUR LATE PARTY FRIENDS

The Lily White Republicans met
last Thursday week in couveEtion in
the Crescent City and put forth an
electoral ticket of their own.
According to all accounts there was
a large gathering of men from many Of
the parishes of tue State. With few
notable exceptions, the delegates COM
posing this convention we're until two
pears ago members of the Democratic
party nay, some Of them were '.lead-
ers in Israeli
On account of the repeal of the
bounty by a Democratic Congress,
most OF them have changed front and
have joined the ranks of the enemy
they had fought so long and bitterly
IN the past. Others again have aban-
doned the Democratic standard on
account Of some real OF faneied griev-
ance, or from some other childish mo-
tive. bs1ersG MI 9Sr-
Whatever the motive, they are now
ranged under the standard of Repub-
licanism, ardent with the zeal of a new
born purpose and ready for the, fray.
They have put forth their declara-
~ piiuCiptcSs uIUu WHICH we
shall make no general comment for
the present.
They have denounced ana villiied
the Democratic party, whose alle-
glance they SO recently owned. They
have charged to it offenses OF commits.
sion and omission, and have painted
Its record blacker than that of the old
radical party which SO long disgraced
our fair State.
There is nothing strange 10 this con-
duct; it is purely human. Having
left the Democratic party, it was nat
ural that they should seek 70 justify
their course ; and abuse and denunci-
alton of the old faith was the only
Justification which offered itself. It
is the same old story Of the course
through which every apostasy eyer
leads. 1t is simply history repeating
itself.

UNIVERSALLY APPROVED.

The nomination of Mr.. o. o. Cullen
for mayor of st. Paul is approved not
only by the people who love this city
and have its future interests at heart.
but by that wider public which is even
more acutely and dispassionateIy crit
ical Of the actions Of political parties
The people of the state have no special
interest in the election of a mayor in
st. Paul. 1t matters nothing to them.
except as it bears upon pure politics
and the election Of the best men to
office, whether one man or another shall
be chosen. They are in a position
where judgment is not overthrown
by craftsmanship. 1t is worthy Of no.
tice that the press Of the state has re-
ceived with unanimous approval, and
even with enthusiasm, the news Of the
nomination Of Mr.. Cullen,
We do not believe that a nomination
was ever made in this city which COM
mended itself SO thoroughly to the
business judgment Of men outside of
st. Paul, as well as those within 1t, as
this. Mr.. Cullen's reputation is more
than local. He Is we'll known to both
Democrats and Republicans through
out Minnesota as a man whose public
record is without stain, and whose
private character is above reproach.
AS such the newspapers Of the state
almost without distinction Of party ap-
prove the choice of the st. Paul Demo-
Gratis, and express the opinion that
such candidate cannot be defeated.
We believe that their confidence and
their prediction are we'll founded, and
are glad to chronicle this confirmation
from impartial sources Of the ability
and high repute of the Democratic
candidate for mayor, and the universal
approval which his selection COM
mands.

A REAL PEOPLES PARTY.

The action Of the representatives Of
the Peoples party in their city conven-
ton yesterday was more judicious
than usual. We could have wished
that they might declare for Mr.. Beau
mont for controller, the only general
office for which they made any nomina-
ton. For Mr.. McCardy is a costly
luxury for the workingman, and the
enemy of laborer and taxpayer.
Their nomination of a candidate for
this place was determined largely,
however, by the belief that 1t was nee
essary to preserve the party right to
formal recognition under the law, and
we shall hope and expect to find their
voters supporting the whole Democrat
ic ticket, which represents the peoples
interests. For the assembly they in
dorsed three Democratic and two Re
publican candidates, and nominated
be led into the trap which the Repub-
licans, acting with Mr.. Scannell, had
set for them.
There is real Peoples party in the
field this year. and Peoples ticket.
1t is that headed by Mr.. Cullen. The
Democratic party represents the peo-
pie in the best sense Of the term. It
stands for honest and efficient govern
ment, for the abolition Of influence
and pull" for economy, for the equal
right of all men before the law and
for new and businesslike admins
tration of affairs in st. Paul. This is
the peoples movement, as opposed to
the Republican machine. Every man
who believes in the power and the
right Of the people will support it.

BOND RESOLUTION DISPLACED.
The Pending Appropriation Bills
Are to BE DISPOSED OF.


WASHINGTON, April 2O.-The early part
OF the day IN the senate was devoted largely
to the sundry civil BILL Mr.. Carter had Of
Tered an amendment striking out the house
provision that none of the money appropriated
for the Indians should be devoted to sec
tartan schools. A further amendment by Mr.
PETER directing the providing of temporary
schools for any Indian children deprived by
the Carter amendment was adopted. Owing
to the absence of Mr.. Carter the consider
alton of the general question Of aid for Sec
tartan schools was deferred
There was sharp criticism of the amend
ment appropriating various amounts to law
yers In connection with the settlement with
the Western Cherokee Indians. Mr.. Chand-
Ter pointed out the peculiar features Of the
proposed payments. Mr.. Brown (Rep. UTAH
declared that 1t was not only "a fraudulent
scheme" but also "a palpable steal clean
and unvarnished." Mr.. Palmer Dem ILL
also asked for an explanation of what he
thought to be "a palpable fraud on it's face"
After this discussion had proceeded for some
t1me Mr.. PETER asked to have the bond reso-
tuition laid before the senate. Mr.. Pettigrew
insisted on continuing with the Indian BILL
This promised to bring test on displacing
the bond resolution and Mr.. PETER to avoid
this, sought an agreement for a vote on the
bond resolution.
Mr.. Allison, chairman Of the committee on
appropriations, appealed to Mr.. PETER to defer
the bond resolution until the appropriation
bills were out of the way and Mr.. PETER was
about to assent. saying that Mr.. Alilson's
statement was evidently in good faith, but
Stewart objected to delay. Mr.. Wolcott ap-
pealed to Mr.. Stewart to yield, saying that
the friends of the bond resolution would
certainly gain by accepting this suggestion
OF Mr.. Allison, as the resolution would thus
secure the added support of those who were
now urging appropriation bills as against the
bond resolution.
Mr. Stewart yielded reluctantly, turning to
Mr. Allison behind him, saying, cit might as
well be known that when the time comes
there will be contest to end this subject.
we Will stand to it day after day to the end
1t will be no child's play. The administration
Is fighting it. Now when the fight comes
Will the senator (Allison) be here?'
am likely to be in this neighborhood."
answered Mr.. Allison.
Inc unanimous agreement was thereupon
made to postpone the bond resolution until
appropriation bills now reported were dis
posed of. The debate on the Cherokee claims
IN the Indian bill then proceeded.

ToDAY's REGISTRATION.

This is the second Of the three days
on which alone the voters of this CITY
can register preparatory to the COM
ing election. By change Of the general
law made by the act Of the last legis-
lature, there are now but three days
of registration. The first is already
past. Today is the second. Next Sat-
urday will be the last. After that the
books will be closed, and no man whose
name is not found upon them can cast
a ballot on the 9Th Of May. It is OBJ j..
viously dangerous to postpone this du-
ty until the closing day Of the season.
No man can tell what may happen to
call him out Of the city, or prevent him
in some other way from having his
name recorded. There is no security
against disfranchisement except to 20
to the polling places today and see
that you are registered. We repeat
again the fact that no names are car
ried over from one year to another.
No man is registered unless he has
gone personally to the election booth
and had his name recorded. No man
can be a voter at the coming city cleo
ton who does not register on one of
these three specified days.
The registration on the first was IN.
expectedly and gratifyingly large. To-
days record ought to maintain and
continue the increase. Not a man in
st. Paul who is entitled to vote should
neglect his duty. Most Of the omis-
sions that occur are due, not to inten-
ton, but to ignorance of the law or for
getfulness. 1t would amaze most peo-
pie to know how many voters there are
who, when each election comes around,
have failed to qualify for the suffrage
This can be prevented this year only
by the utmost activity not only on the
part Of party committees, but by indi-
viduals. We urge every Democrat who
has not been registered to make that
his first duty today. Polling places
are open from in the morning to o
in the evening, and the sooner he is
registered the better. We urge upon
every Democrat, whether he has regis
tered or not, to inquire of his friends
and neighbors, and see how many Of
them have forgotten or neglected to
do so. When the poll lists are counted
tonight, they ought to contain pretty
nearly the total vote of st. Paul.
They will not unless every citizen en-
cages actively in the work Of canvass
ing. Register without fail, and do not
think that you have done your duty
unless you have reminded at least one
other man Of his.
