sEwALL SUPPORTS MCKINLEY.

Last June the Transcript re-
ceivea a letter from the American
Merchant Marine association, call
ing attention to the fact that the
Republican party deserved support
on account of it's friendship for the
American shipping interests. The
name Of Arthur Sewall, Of Bath,
Maine, appeared on the letter head
as president Of this association. A
few weeks later Mr.. Sewall was
nominated for vice president by
the Democrats, and we supposed
he would stop working forsthe
Republican ticket. But another
letter, dated Sept. "A, is at hand,
bearing Arthur Sewall's name at
the head, calling the Transcript $
attention to enclosed extracts from
the Republican national platform
and from McKinley's letter ofac.
ceptance which have reference
to the Republican policy Of protec.
ton to American shipping ia the
foreign trade. Other Republican
literature is enclosed, and it urged
that the matter be published in
these columns. One Of the circu.
lars sent out by Mr.. Sewalls asso.
citation explains the position taken
by the Republican party at st.
Louis and the Democratic party at
Chicago, and closes as follows:
Repub licanism means American
prosperity Democracy means
foreign prosperity. Which shall
American voters choose?
Answering that question, We
will say, judging from the votein
Maine, the American voters will
choose Republlcanism.

e The Democrat observes that it
will be just like Senator Nelson to
talk on other political questions as
well as the silver question this
evening. Most asuredly it will.
The Demopops desire to contne
the political discussion entirely to
the money question. And whys
Because q settlement of the money
question either way does not bring
relief to the condition of the
government itself, or to the people
of the country. 1.-THE present
gold standard is sustained by the
votes Of the people, it will not
result in creating income enough
to pay the gov eminent expenses.
or in opening mills and factories
that are now closed by the impor.
tatlon Of foreign goods. The
Republican party not only pro-
poses to maintain the standard of
the American dollar, but it
proposes to enact such protective
laws as will give the people an op.
portunity to obtain those dollars.
The Democrats naturally wish to
avoid any discussion of the damages
caused by the Wilson tariff bill, as
they are ashamed to endorse their
own work. The Republicans pro-
pose to enact tariff laws that will
be of benefit to the nation while
the Democrats entirely ignore
their main issue of four years ago.

The Herald continues to charge
coercion on the part of the Op-
ponents of free silver. Who has been
coerced, and who are the men who
have employed such unfair means in
politics? The fact is that the charge
is an absolute falsehood, and is part
of the, Popocrat program to excite
prejudice against those who advo-
cate sound money. II coercion has
been practlced, somebody is the vic
tim. The Herald cannot give an in
stance OF it. Yet it has snarled about
coercion for weeks, and the time for
proof has srrived.. Give your. au-
thority. or admit your charges have
no foundation. The best you can do
is to adm it that the threat of a 50-cent
dollar has coerced labOrers, farmers
and business men into uniting
against free silver.

The electoral vote, of. Minnesota
is as likely to be cast for the kepub.
lican presidential candidate this
year, asst ever was in any cam.
paign. Of course the election Of
Mckinley can be easily figured
without Minnesota votes, but that
IS not reason for giving Mime
sofa the standing Of a doubtful
state. It is probable that because
one Republican congressman has
betrayed his constituents on the
money question, outsiders may
think there is a strong Republican
support for silver.

Minneapolis Lumberman: Every
doubt should be dispelled as to the
position of the working people of
Minneapolis on the money gues-
ton, and especially the employees
of the saw mills, that are soon to
be idle, because Of free trade and
its threat Of free silver, by the
monstrous turnout in the great
non.partisan sound money demon
stration Wednesday night.
Several thousand saw mill employees
marched in line with the office
men, manufactures, wholesalers
and others connected with the
trade. The transparencies they
carried told the story of free trade
and free silver better than almost
anything else could. "No Free
Lumber and Free Silver in Ours
'Seven Months Saving in 1889;
Three Months Saving in 1896.
That's what free lumber and the
threat of free silver has done for
the employees in the Minneapolis
saw mills etc. were some Of the
expressive inscriptions on the
transparencies. Fifteen thousand
voters in the parade, wearing the
yellow sound money ribbon, and
nearly as many more OH the side
walks looking on, who will vote in
November for sound money, is not
a bad showing for a city whose
total voting strength is less than
$1,000. .,....r -.
Editor CaswelI, of the Anoka
Herald, was one of the strongest
defenders Of Congressman Towne
year ago when some Republican
papers Of the district were prop.
erly: characterizing and .denounc-
ing his treachery. Even Caswell
finally sized up Towne properly
and now they do not love each
other. When Towne spoke in
Anoka last week he insinuated
that Mr.. Caswell had written him
letters that would hLmlliate the
editor if published now, and made
other remarks rejecting on him.
This weeks Herald grants Towne
permission to publish the editors
letters, ''if you wish to sink
yourself lower in the estimation of
every honest man in thisdistrict-
In closing his article on the
matter, Caswell says:
Cali our readers remember our
devotion to this Judas. We shall
not explain our course, but we
will apologize again for our fdel.
ity to one so unworthy. We de-.
Tended him, we explained his
course, we apoligized for him un-
til we compromised ourself, and
now we haye our reward. :
That recalls time when Bro.
Caswell saw a private letter advis-
ing that Republican newspapers
be urged to make few emphatic
Jumps at Towne. But for the
encouragement Towne received
then he would not now be claiming
that Republican endorsement
awaited him on any platform he
should write.

of Schwyiz, Switzerland, 66 years
ago. He entered the Benedictine or

of Einsiedeln in his native land. He
came to America some thirty years
ago, and though still a young man
was chosen Abbott of st. Meinrad,

in st. Louis. This lady being deeply
interested in the civilization Of the
Indian. found responsive helper in.
the young Abbot of st. Meinrad.
He went in the Dakotas, which We're
then hardly settled by white men.
AS an Indian missionary he devoted
himself unstintingly to his work, en-
during the hardships and perils Of
such life joyfully. Some twenty
years ago he. was made bishop OF
the whole territory. Last year he
was transferred to the see of st.
Cloud. He had promised to be here
at the st. Francis church that day,

Bishop Marty was 2 man 81 deep

labors as a missionary priest and
bishop he found time to write several
works in the Sioux dialect. He was
also a pleasant speaker. Though a
short time at the head Of this diocese
he had already given many proofs
OF his administrative ability. justice
and agreeable manners. The clergy
and laity have ample reason to de-

Minnesota was divided, the northern
part OF the state forming what is

This amount has been pledged and
will be payable Oct. l, and on
October 20, the house Of bishops will
meet in New York, for the purpose
OF choosing a bishop. Archdeacon
