-, DURING the next four months the
protective tariff will divide with the
free coinage of gold and silver the at
tention of the political parties. Both
appear to be necessary for the welfare
of the United States, but each one has
supporters who do not believe in the
necessity of the other. Owing to the
prominence of Mckinley in the cam
paign just opened it is probable that
protection will be the more often men
toned. AS long as nations struggle
for financial supremacy so long will
protection be one of the principle of
government. Selfshness is as much a
characteristic of nations as of men and
self-preservation is therefore also a
natural law for countries. Protection
is self-preservation and fortifcation
of our Industrial prosperity against the
attacks of foreign labor. Let silver
and protection be our battle-cry. .

A LIGHT ARGUMENT.

The argument that Gov. Clough is
mentally unfit to be governor will not
have much weight with the common
run of people in view of the fact that
he has risen from a poor boy in the
numbering district to one of the lead
ing business men in Minneapolis. That
he did not have the opportunity of get
ting a classical education in his youth
proves that he must have some pretty
good stuff in him or he would not be
where he is. We remember distinctly
that thousands of the kid-gloved aris-
,tocracy of the country were scandal
lied at the thought of Lincoln being
mentioned for president because he
lacked culture and he was called boor
and rail-splitter. Slayton Gazette.

COZ CLOUGH rs. THE a GGRE
EIAYL(lN 50 -.

UALlO1Y. SsSS5Ss II #$ fSs
This week is one Of the most inter-
esting in Minnesota S political history.
The governor of the State seeks the
usual Endorsement of his administers
ton by denomination at the hands of
the party, and the rank and file Of the
party seem perfectly willing that he
should receive that endorsements. But
the personal and political enemies
OF the governor hold that he should be
punished for opposing the reelection
OF a certain Twin City gentleman for
United States senator, and so they
have summoned flock of ambitious
gentlemen into the field and organized
them into an aggregation, or sort of
aggregate 'santi'' candidate, the fun
niest that ever graced the field of
political comedy.
A candidate for governor has been.
in the history of this country, as a rule,
a man who for executive ability is
recognized by the people and supported
by the people. Such a man makes a
canvass, based on his personal merits
or upon some principle at issue, and if
the people want him for governor they
signify their choice at the primaries.
But in this campaign there seems to
be one particular candidate, the gov
ernor of the State, and as the opposi-
tion candidate an aggregation. This
aggregation has management which
placed the aggregation in the field,
manages it, advertises it, and works it..
The management is called the ''com-
mittee of 100"-a syndicate Of Mime
apolis gentlemen, organized for this
specific purpose, selected by them
selves for the job, and working by
methods wholly their own. The peo-
pie are not consulted or considered.
This 900" syndicate is a close corpor-
alton, like the syndicate of stockhold-
ers which may own and operate a
mine, saw mill, a brewery, city
market, or circus and menagerie. -
The question before the Republican
voters of Minnesota, therefore, is
whether they will select this week, at
their primaries and conventions, Gov
ernor Clough or the. aggregation as
the Republican candidate for governor.
Governor Clough is the candidate of
the people, the rank and file in every
county and hamlet of the State. The
aggregation is the candidate of the
Minneapolis syndicate, is advertised
by the advance agents of the syndi-
cate, managed by the syndicate, and
doubtless will be run by the syndicate
after nomination. It has become the
custom to run all kinds of business in
this country by syndicates. It remains
for the corporation representatives OF
Minneapolis to Introduce the syndicate
plan into Minnesota politics. Do the
Republican voters of the State wish to
delegate their primaries and conven-
tions to a syndicate? ia
Mile Laos county has already
spoken. The people of this county
want no syndicate in theirs. They
have Endorsed for denomination Gov
ernor Clough and Congressman Towne.
Will other counties do the same, or
will they adopt the syndicate plan:
Will they accept the rule of the Min
neapolis ''100'? Will they vote for
the Hennepin Alliance? Will they
vote for the 'scombine''? The UNION
does not believe it. The syndicate has
no place in running a government of
the people. -. s ID
