Nels Peterson has shown his
ability as a surveyor, and while his
opponents attempted to question
his competence, no such question ls
now raised. He. like his opponent,
depends upon his daily income to
support his family. and is an in
dustrious man and good citizen.
There exists absolutely no reason
why every Republican IN the county
should not support him. He is

the unanimous choice of his party

satisfactory official. Do not fail to
vote for Nels Peterson for county

The Democrat says the showing
OF $4,000 in favor Of Republican
county management IL all right az
far as it goes. Sure, it ia. Then the
Democrat proceeds to mix the road
and bridge receipts up with the
revenue receipts, and to quote some
items OF expense. The road and
bridge fund has no more to do with
the revenue receipts than the school
tax has. The road and bridge fund
Is raised by a separate tax, and the
funds are in separa te account from
the revenue fund. All the Democrat
shows Is that there IL no escaping
from the fact that while the Demo.
Gratis in 1893 run the county In debt
$l0.376, the Republicans In 1895 run
the county for 81, ,753.03 less than the
receipts. This makes Il showing Of
$12,129.03 In favor OF Republican con-
troll In one year. BY tangling up
other funds with the revenue fund
the Democrat cannot deceive the
taxpayers.

probable result. r.. :.
Morrison county is Republican.
The free silver craze he's not mis-
dead the voters, and they will not
follow the false promises Of the free
trade and free silver scheIners, who
hope to again deceive the people
into placing the Democra tic party In
power. Az the time approaches for
the election the Republican. princf-
pies of protection, sound money and
good county management become
daily stronger with the people, and
in Morrison couaty they will be en-
dorsed by an rwhelming vote. ~
The national result IL beyond
doubt. VIM. Mckinley will be elect
ed president, and he will be sup
ported by a Republican congress.
1t is no time for any Republican
voter to hesitate about retaining
his allegiance to the party. We will
win a national victory, and by that
victory restore the nation to pros
perity and bring back the good
times of former Republican acminis-
tratiOns. ." ~ ..E...
The state will con ntinue it's Repub-
lican administration, and not enter
the ranks OF Populistic states. Pop
ulism has injured every state it ever
controlled. and Minnesota must
avoid it. Minnesota has made a
proud record as u staunch Republi'
can state. and the enemy cannot
gain the state government by any
combination OF. elements. Lei no
consideration influence any Repub-
iican to damage his state and his
/ party by casting q vote for any
1 sPopocrat candidate for st ate office.
The free silverites are making. a
most desperate fight for TOwne.
Bryan has made a tour throug the
district to help TOwne. Senator
PETER and "Coii" Harvey are CAIN
paigning in the district to- help
Towne. ~, -
Campaign funds from the silver
mine owners are at the command OF
the Pokocrat congressional CON-
mittee to help T0wne. TOwne
betrayed his party to help the silver
mine owners, and Bryan and all the
Popucrat crowd are giving their
services to him as q reward; the mine
owners are contributing large sums
to corrupt voters. and these CON-
bined and strong influences must be
met by steadfast opposition OF the
Republicans and sound money DEM
ocrats. Towne's treachery will be
rebuked, and Morrison county will
do it's share toward defeatiug him.
Page Morris will carry Morrison
county, and he will be elected. y
Republicans, our party will soon
win the grandest ) and proudest
victory of it's history, and free trade,
dishonest money and Populistlc
combinations will secure emphatic
condemnation in. the nation, state,

principles every evening. His act've
and effectual work for the Repub.
ilican party makes him the target
for Democratic abuse and criticism,
but he will continue his campaign-
ing for his party's cause until the
polls close. Every Republican voter
should bear in mind that no man In
the county is doing more Tor the
party's cause than is Mr.. Rhodes,
and the solid votes Of Republicans
should protect him from any danger
of loss of votes by reason Of his
activity. He could probablyTga gain
votes for himself by making r per-

but he has placed himself absolutely
under the orders of the campaign
committee. and will be the party's
servant until the polls close. Should
the result of the campaign show that
such party loyalty was at q sacrifice
of his party vote, 1t would be 8

Not one word can be said against
Fl. N. Harding, the Republican can.
didate for county treasurer. He is
an honest, capable, Industrious,
competent man, one who is univers-
ally respected. He would scOrn tn
do either an illegal or a dishOnOra hle
act. He would never permit bis
name to he upon u ticket, fraudu-
lentls placed in tho position to
which he knew 1t had no right to be
placed. that he might secure votes
intended to be cast for his opponent.
But Jos. l.. Never not only per-
mitted, but iraudulently procured
the placing OF his name In the posi-
ton OF the Republican candidate, and
Dy that means secured votes OF
many persons who supposed they
were voting for LaFOnd. But for
that dishonest act he would have
been relegated to the shades OF
private life two years ago. A coun-
ty treasurer should be like Caesars
wife, above suspicion. Yet our
present treasurer holds at present
by fraud. But his term is almost
run and ere many moons Harding
will handle the county treasury.

For eight years Henry Goulet has
held the best office in Morrison
county, and it would be no great
hardship If he should let go for
while. He has drawn public salary
from almost the time he came from
Canada, and the county could notbe
blamed much II 1t retired him to
private life. He was first, soon
after he came here, deputy auditor
under Lachance, then he was deputy
postmaster, and then elected register
Of deeds. Such long period OF
official life, when the community
was under no sort OF special Obliga-
tion to him, is enough. He has ac-
quired such a liking for public in.
come that, notwithstanding his
large income. he has dispensed with
a deputy the past year, except dur.
ing the few weeks he is now giving
his time to the campaign. A citizen
should Re thrifty, but Goulet seems
| to look out for doulet little too
persistently for a man who has had
q princely income given him by the
public for many years. He seems no
longer satisfied with the best office
in the county, but now dispenses
with deputy except when he must
give his time to soliciting support
from the voters. AS a matter ol
fairness Goulet should have volun'
tarily retired this year, but In the

conditions. the voters will retire him

Chicago, H., May 13.-Holders of wheat did not fare so well today as they did yes terday. The market presented scarcely anything in the way of strength and al- though damage stories galore were afioat they were of little use as bull arguments, the trade in general preferring to rely on the benefits to be derived from the rains and showers, actual and prospective, re- ported from the winter wheat sections The declaring of all Armour elevators irregular had the effect of inducing some short cov- ering, but it did not produce any particular alarm among operators. The market closed very near the inside and with no indications of revival of strength. July wheat opened at 64Ac, sold between 64ss and 63Ac, closing wheat was easy and 14c per bushel lower.
 Corn-A temporary period of firmness was noted at the opening of the market, but the strength speedily gave way to weak would furnish no assistance to prices. he business was nothing out of the ordinary, and was distinctly local in it's character. Values declined moderately, and at the close were but little above the lowest of the session. July corn opened at 30ssq3012c, declined to 294 4M293sc, closing at 295sc, as012c under yesterday. Cash corn was easy and 1ic lower than yesterday.
 Oats had very good trade today, the undertone of firmness remarked yesterday being still in evidence. The exports were credited with having large share in pro- ducing the strength.

New York, May 13.-(Special.) )-The crop accounts received by wire from all parts of the south today were so glowing that the bulls tried in vain to support prices, and the result of the days trading was a sub stantial decline. August opened at S.14, ad- vanced to S.17 and closed at sos bid, with the tone easy. In the early trading MT. h. man sold freely, but he was buyer at the decline. There were fine rains today in that part of Texas where they were needed. If the crop reports continue as uniformly good as they have been lately we do' not think that any manipulation can avail to prevent material decline in the fall and winter months.
