The Platform
The following platform was adopted:
eve. the Republicans of Minnesota,

pledges of loyalty to the party of lib

hour is near at hand for the deliver
ance Of our country from the evils of
Democratic misrule.
1--WE endorse most heartily the plat
form adopted by the late national Re
publican convention at st. Louis, and
pronounce it to be our line of action
and our political creed, and to the prin-
cipleS which it so fifty declares we
pledge our unqualified support.
ut is our pleasure and pride that the
greatest apostle of the Republican
faith since Abraham Lincoln, William
Mckinley, has been selected as our
leader in the coming contest, and we
gladly promise to Mckinley and HO-
bart the electoral vote of Minnesota.
eve recognize the claims of the Ia
boring people of the state, and their
equal right to tie benefit and protec-
ton of laws.
1--WE believe in the construction and
maintenance of good roads throughout
our state, and we will promote the en-
actment of suitable legislation to that
end.
Eve favor the taxation of unused
railroad land in accordance with the
provisions of the Anderson bill now
before the people.
1--WE indorse the good, practical, bus
iness-like administration of Gov. ID.
nj. CI0ugh. and commend him for his
manliness and integrity in his office,
his fidelity to al the interests of the
state, and his prompt measures for the
suppression of crime.
1--WE call upon all citizens of this
commonwealth to unite with us IN re-
storing to our country the blessings of
prosperity which we enjoyed under
Republican rule, and to the upholding
of the credit Of our state and nation at
home and abroad by the wise, patri-
otic and vigorous measures and prin-
cples by which the Republican party
has ever been guided

The Case of tho Whitford.
The Sun.

The Colombian Government should no
hesitate to accord the satisfaction which
Secretary Olnsy has now twice demanded for
the wrong done TO the American schooner
George W. Whitford three months ago.
When about half dozen miles of Mama
Milo Point, according to her account. she was
ordered by Colombian gunboat to lay to,
whereupon an officer boarded her. examined
her papers. and, although the America dag
was flying over her, directed her to change
her course and go to Colon. Al that point
her captain was prevented for some time
from going ashore to make the proper com
plaint to our consul.
And this Is not the first, though 10 10 the
most fsgrant, instance Of interference with
our vessels engaged in trade along the San
Bias coast. Under law passed by Colombia
about a dozen years ago. vessels desiring to
trade in the smaller ports Of the lstbmus
were allowed to do 80 by taking out a license
ut Colon for q fixed sum, while at principal
ports like Csrthagena regular duties were
imposed. Several years ago the schooner
Willie sailing under the American flag. and
the schooner Julian, butt here, but safiing
under the Dominican flag IN the American
trade, were subjected TO seizure and annoy
ance by the gunboat La Popa. although,
according to the ytstement OF their owners at
the time, they had complied with license
requirements. The Edith b. Coombs, sent
out to bring of the cargo of the Julian.
60 ms of 1t perishable. like fruit. was delay ed
at Colon by the authorities.
Whatever were the excuses in the former
series OF troubles, the violation OF the rights
of tho Whitford, according to the account
given to the Department of State seems to
be such as to require an apology from the
Bogota Government to say tho least: and.
indeed. actual loss wvs sustained by the
Whitford in the enforced delay.

THE BITTERNESS OF SUGAR.

The Boston Commercial Bulletin IS
authority for the statement that the
HAvEMEyERs annually take something
like IS, 200, 600 out of Wall street by man
ipulating Sugar.
Sugar is a fine investment. 1t never
slips dividend. But to the margin
specuIator ii offers poorer show than a
faro bank. The Sugar management plays
its game in Wall street and very fas-
cinating game it is for great many
thousand persons all over the country.
But lit Is game and only tnat. There
is little relationship between the game
and the actual business of the American
Sugar Refining Company. The rapid
changes in Sugar make its certificates
mighty attractive to the margin specu-
lator but the changes have no relation to
the value of the certificates.
The average margin speculator is wont
to delude himself with the idea that he
is playing his game on basis of some
knowledge OF the conditions that affect
stock values, and he assumes to weigh
the rumors as to crops and earnings be-
fore making his investment. But the
sugar gambling game has hardly apre-
tended relationship to crops and earn
ings.
1t ia as independent of them as is a
faro bank.
