have the people vote direct for them
instead of choosing by the present
method. The likelihood is that Ken
lucky will go through the same expert
ence that two or three of our eastern
states did two or three years ago, and
be represented for the next two years
from March 4, 1897 by only one sena-
tor. Aside from all changes which
have been made at times in the past
of some senators securing their cleo
tion through the influence of Doodle,
and the time of legislatures lost
through senseless struggles, the ex-
perience of the last two or threeyears
ought to be sufficient to open the eyes
of the people to the crying need for
the change and cause such a demand
for it to grow up, that it cannot be
resisted upon the part of our law
makers.

Thunder Cloud when on visit to Wash
ington recently to see the Great White Chief,
as the red men call the President, was paid
many attentions and shown the sights at the
Nations Capital. When asked what sur
prised him most about civilization, the Head
Chief of the Kickapoos startled his ques-
TONERS by replying, -"The appalling number
of sudden deaths among you pale faces"
The truth of Thunder Clouds assertion
cannot be denied. Statistics show that yearly
thousands of people are suddenly stricken on
the street, in public places, at their desks,
and in their homes. Their deaths are
attributed to "heart failure but if the truth
were known, impure blood, liver and kidney
disorders are what sever SO quickly the
thread of life.
How unlike are the people of today from
the Indians whose "one talent" was and is
to keep well, strong and able to endure the
most terrible hardships and privations. For
years they kept the trail to health secret.
Now, thousands are being cured of disease
by Indian remedies. The Kickapoos now

Sheriff Bowen arrived from Little

animation was set for March 18th,
and Judge Severance will name the

If you are "off the hooks,'' lack the
activity and ambition that you usually have,

dry and hard, and distressing eruptions break
out over your body, your system is run
down and your blood needs toning-up and
purifying, or your liver and kidneys demand
attention. If you want to be we'll and strong

mean simply silver recommendation.
1t would drive all gold out of circula-

through international agreement of
the leading nations of the world still
larger amount of silver could be safely
used in the money volume of such ma
tions, and possibly the full free coin
age of silver might be reached. But
this latter is merely an experiment to
be tried, and is being worked for by
this country, and to such an END the
Republicans have in the past put forth
thier efforts and there is every reason
to believe that position will be main
tanned by them in the future. Such a
position is probably endorsed by at
least -tenths of the Republicans
of the country.

MOVED TO MANkATO.

Mr. and Mrs. F.W. Nash and daugh-
ter, Gertie, recently moved to this
city from Tyler, Lincoln county,
Mimi. The Tyler Journal has these
kind words to say concerning them:
Rarely does man enjoy the con-
tidence of the public to the extent
Mr. Nash has in this section. Ac-
lively and enthusiastically participate
ing IN all projects for the benefit of
town and community, and his actions
at all times covered by integrity and
a rare sense of right and justice. he
had come to be regarded leader in
all such matters. Those who have
been intimately associated with Mr..
Nash for the past sixteen years can
best testify to his excellent qualities
as man and citizen. Two years ago
when Populism was at it's best he was
selected by the Republicans of the
10Th district as the safest man to
carry them to victory at the polls,
and in the face Of what seemed al
most inevitable defeat, he came out
with safe majority and served the
district credibly in the legislature OF
1895.
The departure of Mrs. Nash, whose
amiable disposition, and sterling char
acter has endeared her to all with
who she came in contact, will be es-
pecially regretted by her host of
friends in Tyler and elsewhere in
locality. She has always been lea
der in the church and Sabbath school
work and mainly through her efforts
have those organizations been sus-
tanned. Her place in the social, re-
ligious and many other affairs will be
hard to fill.

EUROPE WILL NOT INTERFERE

Since the excitement in Spain oyer
the passage by the senate of the resolu-
tions recognizing the belligerents
rights of Cuba, there has been great
deal of war talk INDUCED in, much OF
it as usual, of most senselesS nature.
This talk has been urged on no doubt
by the talk which sprung up in Europe
and especially in Germany, TO the ef-
feet that if Spain went to war with
this country, she would receive help
from some European country; that the
attitude of the United States toward
Cuba indicated that it intended to re-
verse its policy of the past and take
part in the political affairs OF the
world, and that such move would be
resented by Europe. But this latter
was point not well taken. The
United States has no more idea now
than il has had at any time in the
past of taking part IN the politics OF
the world, nor can the action of con-
gress regarding Cuba, be tortured in
to such a view. But if Spain is foolish
enough to plunge into war with this
country, it is altogether likely she
will be left to carry it on alone. The
affairs of Europe are in far too deli
cate condition TO warrant any other
nation taking part with her. The st.
Paul Globe best explains the condition
of Europe, when in commenting upon
the possibility of such action it says:
But no European power is anxious
for the hostility of the United States
The balance of the power in Europe is
now so delicately adjusted, and so SEN
sative to the slightest variation, that
each nation knows well how entirely
its own safety depends on keeping its
skirts clear of foreign complications.
All of them hate and despiSe the Turk.
Not one of them dares to move against
him: not because they fear the Turk,
but because they feel that the mo-
ment one nation becomes embroiled,
the others will take advantage of it's
necessities to make demands or en-
croachments upon it. England, which
is the most powerful of them all prob
ably, has shown that she desires no
war with the United States. That
any other power, with no grievance
and no cause of hard feeling against
us, should step into the ring to help
Spain out of the difficulty of her own
making, is the last improbability that
could be thought of. A number of
the European newspapers, indeed,
recognize that Spain has forfeited her
claim to Cuba by her policy of tyran-
nical and cruel disagreement. They
advise her to make the necessary con-
cessions as gracefully as possible.
Even those who feel otherwise, and
who would be delighted to see the
United States humbled. will not
jeopardize their own safety to accom-
pliSh it. Whatever else may happen,
Spain, in the event of carrying her
difference with the United States to
the point of actual war, would lind
herself without an ally in Europe.

THE PEOPLE DON'T WANT 1T.


There is still lurking in the minds
of some of the members of the city
council that. because a majority OF
the voters sustained the proposition
last year for municipal ownership of
electric lights to the extent of put
ting in a plant at a cost of $4,000
that they are still of the same opinion,
and that despite the fact that the
bonds were illegally voted, it is still
the duty Of the council to put in
such a plant.
In the first place the people voted
$4,000 for municipal plant under a
misrepresentation and to a certain ex-
tent Misrepresentation. 1t has since
been demonstrated to the satisfaction
of large majority of our people that
this sum is entirely insufficient to put
in such a plant as the city should
have, and further than this, it is
plainly evident to those who have
studied the question during the past
year that municipal ownership of
electric lights is not desirable. The
city of Brainerd, this state, tried it.
and found it so expensive that the
plant was sold, at a considerable sac
rifice, to private parties. Winona
voted municipal ownership down, and
we believe that if the count il would
make map of the city, establish its
lights, get at the exact cost of con-
struction and maintenance and SUBJ
nit the proposition for city ownership
to the people it would be voted down
by good large majority. The fact
that the people voted for municipal
ownership once, under conditions
which do not exist today, and without
the information they now possess, is
no more reason why they want it now
than that because one party succeed
ed in the election last year the same
people would vote to continue it an
other when it was ascertained that
change would be beneficial.
1t would seem to be the part of
wisdom on the part of the present
council to let this matter of electric
lights rest for the time being. If it
wants to get at the real sentiment of
the people on the subject let a COM
plete diagram of the city be made,
indicate just how many and just
where the arc lights are to be placed,
get accurate and reliable figures from
two or three responsible and we'll
known electricians as to just what
such plant, with reserve power of
sufficient volume utO add to-, from
time to time, as the growth of the
city may demand, and then submit
the question of city ownership to the
people. Let the public know just
how much money is wanted and pre-
cisely what character of plant it is
proposed to put in, what it will cost
to produce the lights, and all other
details for the full information and
enlightenment of the public and then.
if there is any demand for public
expression, let it be had.
We believe the more study the tax
payer gives the question of municipal
ownership of an electric light plant,
the more he will oppose it. We be-
lieve this to be the case now. Public
sentiment has undergone decided
change within the past year-a state
ment not susceptible of honest con
tradiction.

STATE LEAGUE PRESIDENCY.

At the meeting of the Republican
State League on the 25th of this
month president of the league will
be elected, and there is considerable
feeling expressed on the part of many
Republicans that this position ought
TO go to some Republican outside of
the twin cities. There is certainly
plenty of good timber throughout the
state, and no more capable man could
be found for that position than Hon.
ID. W. Bruckart, of St. Cloud. Mr..
Bruckart is an able young lawyer, has
always been a sound Republican, and
his many friends would be glad to see
him chosen to this position, which he
would so fittingly honor. AS president
of the league, he would instill within
its ranks much enthusiasm, and work
10 make it one of the aggressive
forces of the party in the campaign
0he coming season. If we mistake
not, the twin cities have had the
presidency of the league, since that
organization was first formed, and it
is a very good time to pass the honors
around amoung the country brethren.
We understand the cities are willing
TO allow the position to go to some
active and aggressive outside Republi-
can and we believe that concerted
action on the part of the Republicans
around the state in behalf of Mr..
Bruckart would secure his election
with but little or no opposition
