PERFECTLY CONSISTENT.

The st. Paul o b e is one of the ablest
free trade papers in the country, and it is a
pleasure to read its editorials because of their
ability and clearneSS of expression. But con-
sistency is thing free trade writer's are sell
dom acquainted with. One of the fundamen-
tai principles of free traders is to sell to the
dearest market and to buy in the cheapest.
If higher price is paid for an article pro-
duced at home than for one produced abroad
there is said to be a waste of human energy.
No tariffs restrictions of any kind must be
allowed to hamper the free exchange of com
moditiess say the free trade organs, and the
| o b e continuously and eloquently harps
upon this proposition in all its various as
poets. Then, of course, it would be expected
that this ultra free trade organ would be
expected to advocate purchasing stone for the
new capitol wherever it can be purchased
cheapest This Is free trade doctrine pure
and simple. But, instead of this. we find the
| o b e one of the strongest advocates 10
buy Minnesota stone notwithstanding the fact
that stone can be bousat cheaper outside the
state than inside Patronize home industries,
is its motto in this instance. If this is not an
abandonment by the O of it's own po-
Sition, which it has earnestly advocated
and ardently defended, then we have read po-
litical economy to no purpose.-Lake Benton
News.
Approaching the good words Of our
esteemed contemporary, We are con-
strained to show that it has not read
the position of the G l o be correctly.
It's mistake is found in two PARTICULARS
The first is the assumption that the
Glob would recommend the use of
Minnesota stone for our state capitol
under any circumstances and condi-
lions, no matter how inferior Or high
the case. The situation is that Mime
sofa is exceptionally rich in uii1ing
stones; that these are vouched for by
competent scientific auth orities as of
the highest value for building purposes;
and that, with this wealth of ma
terial at home, we ought not to go
abroad for an inferior article. If our
contemporary will consult the language
of the G l o b in presenting this cues
ton to the public, it will find our po-
sition summed up in the following SEN
tence: 1--WE sympathize fully with the
general feeling, which is an intense
one, that, other circumstances heirg
at all equal, the preference should he
given to a Minnesota stone" Let US
place the emphasis that it deserves
upon the qualifying clause "other cir
cumstances being at all equal That
Is what makes our position entirely
consistent with the free tra,fe idea.
Other circumstances being equal, we
should prefer to use American made
articles rather than those of foreign
manufacture. There is vast difference
between that and piling up tariff duties
that prohibit the people from usir
cheap goods, and compel them to pur-
chase high-priced ones for the sake of

HAVE TO PROD HIM.

Once more the powers have had TO
sharpen their bayonets and prod the
sick man Of Europe VITA the points.
The policy of the Turk was long ago
declared, and differs in no way from
that which he has followed in the
past. Nor, from his point Of view, is
it unreasonable. Turkey, after what
she deemed a series of aggressions by
Greece, declared war against her, and,
by the expenditure of her treasure and
al the cost Of many lives, brought that
little government to- it's knees. Nat
urally, the victor is not pleased to have
to relinquish the spoils and privileges
of conquest. We, who look 1T the stu
alton from the outside and in the light
of the mental attitude of the Christian
toward the Turk. fail to appreciate
slider it in the light of the Turks opin-
ion of the Christian. He still regards
all the rest of the world as ''infdel
dogs" and believes that the time is
surely coming when the religious faith
and the temporal power of the MusslI-
man will prevail over the whole world
1t is the sword of Mohammed that IS in
his hand, and he cannot believe that it
will be stayed. Added to the fataIism
which is characteristic of the Moslem
creed is the desperate hatred which the
followers of the prophet feel for those
outside of their circle, and the military
ardor that possesses any people, no
matter what their nationality, when
ever they find themselves triumphant
over powerful foe.i ALL of these influ-
ences have made it, probably, as diff
ficult for the sultan to moderate his
demands as it is unpalatab BILE to him.
He has been determined to hold possess
sion of Thessaly and return it to the
Turkish dominions, and has not for
one moment been more sincere in fer
warding the proposed peace necotia-
lions than he was in promising to in
troduce local reforms in Armenia and
other portions of his empire.
The troubled powers, becoming at
last convinced that the Turk meant
to remain in Thessaly. have been drawn
together again into a species Of super.
fetal concord by the necessity of curb
ing his ambition. If it would not do to
permit Greece to annex Crete, because
of the jealousy and hostility it would
excite among the powers themselves.
much less would it be allowable to have
Turkey. annex Thessaly. Therefore.
the concert of Europe" has pulled it
self together again and dispatched an
other note TIC the Porte, announcing
that the obstruction of peace negotia-
tons must cease, and that The project
to occupy Thessaly permanently must
be abandoned. This only marks an
other move in game which will be al
most Indefinitely prolonged. The Turk
will yield only when he knows s,1so-

ONE VOICE FOR FREE TRADE.

The Sentinel is in receipt of some articles
to publish for the Retail Merchants associa-
tion They are organizing and going to try
and compel the farmers to spend their money
with them whether they want to or not.
Their object is to try and force farmers to
quit buying from department stores, whether
they save money or not. We won't publish
anything of the kind. Our advice to farmers
is to spend your money where you can get
the most for il. That is what the merchant
does. That is what every wise person does.
When you bring your produce to town you
must take just what you can get for 1t and
not what you want. Then. when you have
dollar to buy goods with spend it where you
can get the most for it.-Britton Is. d. SEN
tinel.
If there is one thing that strikes the
eye of the exchange reader more than
another-unless it be the editorials to
which the able edito, is assisted by the
Hanna bureau-it is the injunction to
buy at home. Fierce diatribes are
written weekly against the peddlers
who commit no greater offense than
exchanging wares for rags, and against
the department stores of the cities and
those houses known to the trade as
catalogue" houses, because they send
out in the mails their catalogues Of
merchandise they offer at or near
wholesale rates. We imagine that
these articles are not written because
the editors object to getting things
cheap, but because they think they
will fatter their local rradesmen into
advertising with them, a result not
usually obtained if one may judge from
the occasional remarks about the value
paragraphs showing the fate Of the
man who does not advertise.
The above from the Britton Sentinel
is the first brave, manly note, the first
intimation of sound common sense,
which we have run across. 1t is not
that we do not believe in the trade-at-
home idea when it comes without arms
in it's hands, but because we believe
thoroughly in the right of any man to
buy where he pleases and of whom he
can get what he wants at the least
cost. Whatever opposes this, whether
it be peddlers' licenses, taxation of
commercial travellers, organizations of
merchants or protective or any kind Of
tariffs, each and all are a denial CT the
most sacred of human tights; each is
instinct with the spirit of slavery. No
man likes competition that reduces his
profits; but it is the fundamental con-
dition of all life, and human laws that
interfere with it work only mischief.
The man or body of men who admit
that they cannot stand it admit their
own incapacity and hoist the white
flag of surrender. The counsel Of the
Sentinel is sound; it is the language of
common sense, and some day it will be
the accepted doctrine and policy of the
whole country.

PARDONING THE YOUNGERS.

The pardon of the Youngers, if pardoned
they are, will be remembered century by
two classes-those who desire to follow
career of crime and those who already doubt
too much the efficacy of our courts and juries
and are always ready to advocate rope
without a trial, not only for such crimes as
the Youngers stand convicted, but for Others
-Faribau!t Republican.
This Practice of pardonng out upon pathetic
appeals, backed by a hysteric tenderness for
expired, is one of the causes why embryo
criminals often venture into full-nedged
crime.-Manitoba Free Press.
Why should they be let out even if they
have served twenty-one years? 1t will not
help those who were murdered by them be-
fore the Mortified affair They should have
kept out of Minnesota If they did not care
to reside here.-Sherburne Advance.
While we should hardly feel justified in
asking for their pardon if the board wishes
to take the responsibility of granting it, we
do not believe there will be much complaint.
Minnesota has Slapped their lives of most of
their sweetness, has taken their younger
years in return for their crimes against her
people and her laws, and it may well be
asked if we have not taken about all they
have got that is, worth having. Perhaps we
can now be generous without being unjust to
ourselves or the memories Of the sufferers
of the lamented Northfield robbery.-Windom
Reporter.
These men and their friends now seem to
take the ground that they are martyrs and
suffer from the vengeance of the people They
should be well content to pass the rest of
their days within the prison walls.-Shakopee
Argus
1t would be just as consistent to start pe-
titions to the Almighty to release some muir.
derer who expiated his crime on the gallows.
A life sentence, IL deserved at the time of
conviction, ought to be sentence for life
Kenyon Leader.
The good which the Youngers have done in
the past twenty years. or may do in the flu
ture, will never sufficiently atone for the lives
which were ruthiessly sacrificed through their
vain attempt to secure money to which they
had no moral or legal right When viewed
in this light, the sentence which they are
serving is a most lenient one and should be
neither committed nor remitted.-Faribault
Pilot.
1t would please the Post to have our honor
able board of pardons open the gates of our
prison to these men. Justice has been vindi-
Gated, and now let mercy spread her downy
wings over the fate Of these men, and in the
