Mr.. TONNES POSITION.

The Editor OF the HERALD does mot
often thrust his personal opinions upon
the readers of this paper, but the follow.
ing from an interview with the repre-
sentative Of the st. Paul Dispatch ex.
presses the present congressional situa.
ton as he sees It, so that it is repeated
without apology:
c. F. Hendryx of Sank Centre, one OF
the delegates at large to the national
republican convention, was at the capi-
toll this morning. He confirmed the
report that Congressman Towne will
stand tor free silver, and demand that
the party in his district allow him to
make the platte.m; that he announces
that he will not accept reahrmation
OF the St. Louis platform ii it is for a
gold standard, as lit is expected it will
be. Mr.. Towne will only run on plat
form declaring for projection and free
silver. If the republicans OF the Sixth
district will not adopt his platform, he
will try the popuhsts, demanding the
same platform OF them, and the rejection
OF all their isms and other terms sup
posed to be dear to the populist heart.
If they will not take him up on that
platform he will run independent. He is
bound to run on his own platform, any
way.
Mr.. Hendrix admits that Mr.. Towne
is very strong. He has large personal
following, and then St. Louis, his home
county, is disposed to stand by him,
silver or no silver. In fact, the silver
sentiment of the district is mostly CEN
tered right in that county. The rest OF
the district has as little of it as any
other district in the state. Mr.. Hen
dryx says that in view of these facts ii
Mr.. Tcwne should get the populist
nomination and the democrats as well
as the republicans should put man in
the field. Mr.. Towne would have a
good chance of winning. If the demo-
Gratis left their nomination open, he
will still have a chance OF winning,
though not so good, as the silver demo-
Gratis, who form larger part OF the
democratic party of the district than
they do of the republican, would flock
to his standard, while the gold demo-
Gratis would vote for the republican
nolnlnee. All these things indicated hot
fight over the financial plank IN the
republican platform adopted at st.
Cloud July 16. Mr.. Hendryx expressed
the opinion that c. A. Pillsbury OF
Minneapolis, stood the best chance of
becoming the chairman of the Minneso-
ia delegation to St. Louis.

THE St. Paul Dispatch so far departed
from it's usually fair and courteous treat
ment OF even those with whom it offers
as to indulge in brutal attack upon
General M. E. Clapp, greatly to the in
dignant surprise of its readers. 1t had
a scurr1lous caricature OF Mr., Clapp. re-
presenting him in the role of tramp,
and several columns were devoted to his
personal abuse. The HERALD is not in
sympathy with Mr.. Clapp's candidacy
for governor, It believes that Mr.. Lee
is the man best calculated to rectifv ex-
isting abuses in practical politics now 20
painfully evident throughout the state;
but It does know that Mr.. Clapp 10 an
honorable, broad minded, able and clean
man with personal and political re-
cord OF which any citiaen might be justly
proud, and nothing is gained by SUCH
tactics ss were deloyed BY the Dispatch

A LOT OF band wagon political strikers
up in the Sixth district are all the time
shouting, "What is Charley Towne 60
ing to do?" We can tell them in a very
few words: He IS going back to con-
gress whether Wall street agents like it
or not.-Martin County Sentinel.
That kind of talk is characteristic of
Bro. Day, and in turn Bro. Day is char
acteristic of the majority of the people
who advocate the free coinage of silver
by this country alone at a ratio that
would make it worth twice what it
really is. The same kind of buncombe
talk was INDUCED in by them before the
late conventions in Minnesota, when it
was freely predicted that the woods
were full of sixteen to one republicans,
but when the conventions met there
wasn't peep indicating that there was
one out of fifty republicans who believed
in that doctrine. The resolutions in
favor of sound money adopted bv all the
conventions at that time silenced the
famboyant tree silverites tor the time
being, but they are breaking out again
in the same places and in the same style.
That there are manv friends to silver in
the republican party IS not denied. and
the star News is one of them, but there
is difference in being friendly to the
white metal and beng III favor of free
coinage by this country alone at a ratio
that could not by any possibility be
anything but disastrous to the business
intere SITS OF the country. The frank free
silver man admits that such would b.
the result at first, but thinks the coun-
try would recuperate from the shock in
a few years and then be in prosperous
condition, A mar has to be of very
sanguipe disposition o take such chan
ces, based wholly upon theory. As to
Congressman Towne, his return to con-
gress depends wholly upon himself. The
republicans will be pleased to send him
back as republican upon republican
platform. wall street agents" are an
unknown quantity in the Sixth district.

ment of Bro. Days imagination even IL

NIX. LEE y kECOND.
The HERALD need not reiterate of
what it has repeatedly said relative to
VIM. E. Lees manifold qualifications for
the office OF Governor. He combines
more essentials tor the best administra-
tions of the multiplicity OF duties Of the
chief executive of Minnesota than any
other candidate. He IS first and Tor
most practical business man-yiso rous
and economical, broad-minded and in
dependent. In every official position he
has occupied he has applied the same
thorough and economical methods which
nave contributed to mis- personal success
ses as business man.
The Duluth Herald has this to say OF
him:
The Herald has not deemed it neces-
sary to say very much about Mr., Lees
public career, because it is very general
ly known. 1t is worthy OF not., how
ever, that during the whole time that he
has been in the legislature and III other
public positions, the charge has never
been made that he has been unfaithful
to the interests of the people. In the
session OF 1885, at which railroad legis-
lation occupied prominent part, Mr..
Lee was foremost among those members
who sought to regulate the railroad
corporations SO that the people OF Min
nesota could not be injured in any way
Mr.. Lees record in and out OF the legis-
lature, shows that he has always been
with the people on every question which
has come up. and he always responded
to the legislation which they demanded.
During the term that Mr.. Lee was
speaker Of the house he effected saving
OF So, 900 by economical management
in the seasonal expenditures, as COM
pared with the previous session presided
over 10y popuiist speaker, Again, as
superintendent of the state retormatory,
which he resigned several months ago
Mr. Lee inaugurated reforms and intro
duced business methods which saved in
current expenses within nineteen months
between $4,000 and $4,000, as COM
pared with che nineteen months proceed
ing, and in addition he added $4,000 of
betterments to the institution without
any expense to the state. These facts
demonstrate that Mr.. Lee has always
endeavored to conduct the publie busi-
ness entrusted to him with the same
regard for economical management tia;
he exhibits in the conduct of his own
private business. 1t would mean much
to the people of Minnesota to place such
a man IN the go vernor's Office.

SkeptiCs

You have right to disbeleave us if
you are stranger to our clothing.
When we claim the Stein-Bloch
clothes are as good in material, as
good in tailoring, and as good fitting
clothes as your tailor can produce,
you have right to doubt. But have
you right to deny the facts until you
are able to disprove them? Maybe
you are basing your doubt on the
way ready-to-wear clothes were made
ten or dozen years ago. If that's the
case we can certainly open your eyes
if you'll take the trouble to investi-
gate our argument. There's been
mighty change wrought in some
makes of ready-to-Wear clothing
within the past ten years, and the

The Journal Press believes that the

pay as much attention to the matter of
selecting a delegation to the congress.
sional, as to that OF the state convention
n fact the indications at present are
that whatever Stearns county may do
on the matter of selecting a candidate
for governor will cut no tgsre one way
or the other. But it may be different in
the congressional convention. This
county should send fifteen Of its best,
and most leyel headed republicans-men
who will command the respect and con-
hdence of the people. They should be
men who are friendly to Congressman

Governor Clough is not in good spirits
these days. He is plainly worried.
Those who have seen him lately say
that he wears an anxious look, which
indicates that he does not believe the
Merriam machine" can secure his nom-
nation. The Pioneer Press yesterday
published a significant interview which
he gave to St. Cloud correspondent
while on his way to G. A. r. encamp-
ment. In this talk he virtually admit
ted that he will be beaten in Hennepln
county, while heexpressed hope of carry
ing Ramsey county. THERE'S but little
chance, no viewer, that he can carry RAM
sey, where all the Young republicans are
working enthusiastically in favor OF
Moses E. Clapp and where the Pioneer
Press is daily making hundreds OF votes
for Clapp by opposing him. If. as Mr..
Clough himself virtually admits, he can
not carry Hennepin county, his name
will hardly be mentioned in the state
convention. The indications are strong
that Clough is already beaten, The
leading anti-Clough candidate is VIM.
E. Lee. and with the solid support OF
the Sixth district, combined with the
support already assured to him from
other sections of the state, he can be
nominated. II St. Louis county IS in
line for him, there will be little doubt of
his success. This county's vote cannot
now help Clough, because he is irretriev-
ably distanced in the race, but it can
nominate Lee.-Duluth Herald.
