After a NaVV Yard.

Not long ago Congressman Kiefer, of
St. Paul, introduced bill, asking for
subtreasury to be located in his city.
Thereupon Congressman Fletcher-not
to be outdone in statesmanship-ask
for an appropriation to build a subtreas-
ury and an armor plate factory in Min
neapolis. We shall soon hear of our
friend McCleary establishing navy yard
at Mankato.-Reform Advocate.
That seems to be exactly what is need
ed in the second district; at least Nc
Cleary and Kieter's endeavors to make
the Minnesota river navigable had
strong naval flavor, But maybe this is
only a strategic maneuver to mislead the
enemy. It is we'll known that Nc C]earv
is after another term, and his prospects
seem to be bright too. On the other
hand John Lind, of free silver. tenden-
cies, may be pushed into the arena at an
inopportune moment. The only way
to keep John out of mischief is to
make HIM read Macs gold speeches
which can be readily accomplished if it
wasn't but for one thing-insufficient
shipping facilities to supply the demand.
According to latest advices Johns last
shipment of congressional records and
reports had to be cut down to 2,70O lbs.
to enable the department to get it
through, and now our congressman is
moving heaven and earth to hurry on
the $4,000 appropriation to make it
possible to have Johns next consignment
