THE newspapers are publishing an item with
Governor Cfough as authority. that the vote of
sRoseau county is remarkably strange in that it
cast such a large vote and so great prepon-
derance for John Lind.-Roseau Times
Naturally enough the Times is in
dignant, and rightly so, at the charges
of frauds at the recent election in
Roseau county. But the Times is mis-
taken when it gives Gov. Clough as
authority for the allegation. Gov.
Clough has never intimated such a
thing. There was considerable talk
OF Mr.. Lind contesting the election and
demanding a recount of the votes.
Gov. Clough remarked to a group of
friends that if recount could be had
he was of the opinion that his plurality
would be increased, and we believe the
governor was right. Roseau county is
increasing in population rapidly, and
thesvote recorded in that county at the
recent election was not out of proper
ton to the bona Jide populatio save
that there were too many Demopop
votes cast.

A WASHINGTON correspondent of

the law governing militia, passed in

still the law on which depends the
safety of our country. A reading of the
law will prove amusing if not instruc-
tive. Every male citizen between the
ages of Is and As are subject to instant
call and are supposed to be supplied
with a musket capable of carrying a
ball OF the size of one-eig hteenth Of a
pound, two spare Aints, powder horn,
etc. The commissioned officers must
be supplied with a hanger and spon.

PIONEER Press: The convention
which has been called at st. Louis BY
that energetic loafer, Gen. Coxey, if it
ever comes off, will be a sight for gods
and men---a memorable and UNIQUE
event. Conventions of cranl1s are not
unknown in a world and a period where
nothing Can be accomplished, appar-
entity, without a convention. But a
gathering in which the purpose, to
every intent except the spoken word.
IS to gather the political fotsam and
jetsam of an entire nation, and revel
In unreason, is something quite I'M
heard OF, even in a blessedly free coun-
try. Other crank conventions are
specialized they have names. which
Indicate some particular form of hallu-
cination Sor imbecility. But Mr..
.CoxeY's, although 5professedly for the
purpose of working for the s'demone-
tization Of gold as we'll as of silver,''
likewise calls to itself in truly catho-
lie spirit, and in a conprehensively
vague phraseology, "other reforms .
This opens the door to several dozen
varieties of the reform mania and to
innumerable throngs Of long-haired
men and short-haired women. It is al
together unlikely that any one will
take the Coxey convention seriously,
even should it become an established
fact. Nevertheless it has it's serious
side. A travesty Of reason in some
respects, it is also a reflection of the
tremendous n ignorance and helplessness
that is still to be found among men.

Down in Kansas they are undertake
ing a new scheme to care for the I'M
employed. A townsite is to be laid out,
houses built and industries started BY
a company Of capitalists who will
eventually give way to a cooperative
company Of which each member Of the
community will be a member. The
residents are to control everything and
as fast as a surplus accrues it will be
applied on the purchase Of the city and
its industries until everything is paid
for and the community owns it all in
common. If factional differences can
be eliminated the plan seems to be
feasible.

The HI Torrens system Of real estate
transfers and titles failed in Illinois
but this should not affect its adoption
by other States. The. defects Of the
Illinois law can be readily remedied.
Australia has given US the best kind
OF an election law and there is no rea-
son why its excellent land laws should
not be adopted. Our Legislature should
take the matter up at the coming ses-
sion, and with Illinois failure as warn
ing signal steer clear Of the shoals
which wrecked the constitutionality Of
her law.
