the representatives from the state in
congress voted to add 81 to the tariff
on imported lumber, we'll knowing
that the price of the native product
would be advanced an equal amount
to the consumer while the cost of it's
production would not be increased.
1t deliberately said to every resident
of the bleak prairies of the North.
west that they should pay 81 extra for
every one thousand feet of lumber they
bought, every cent of which goes to
the profit of the lumber kings.
The best interests of the consumer
OF lumber in the Northwest would be
to give it to him as cheaply as DOS
sible, the cheaper the greater the bles-
sing, and if the citizens Of Canada can
get out the logs, saw and plane the
lumber and transport it to US at low.

We are glad to notice that a new
weekly, the Free Press, is to be issued
as a spokesman for the free silver ad-
herents. The death of the Penny
Press was deeply felt throughout the
state and a weekly state paper taking
it's place in political views should,
and we hope will, meet with hearty
approval and generous support of the
Populists, free silver Republicans, and
Democrats. The erroneous practice
of the reform element of continuing
to support the old papers whose poll
tics they have deserted, thinking it
matters not what paper they read as
long as they vote all right, swept the
Penny Press from off the face of the
earth, and the same method makes it
difficult for many reform papers in
the country to keep the wolf from the
door. 1t is we'll to read regularly a
paper of the opposite belief in order
that party blindness does not narrow
ones clear vision. Such should be
praised rather than be condemned:
but it is even more paramount to read
papers of ones, own political thought:
first, because man should be versed
in his own principles; secondly, be-
cause he should support in a fnan-
cial way the paper which he thinks
supports the true cause. The TRI-
BUNE hopes that the Free Press will
meet with such unbounded success that
ere long it becomes daily publica-
ton.

The gold Democrat, J. Adam Bede,
is stumping Ohio for Mark Hanna.
The Democrat, Bourke Cochran, who
came to Minnesota last fall to in
struct the Democrats to vote for Nc
Kinley, is stumping Greater New
York for Gen. Tracy, the Republican
candidate for mayor, and the New
York Sun, that erstwhile was Demo-
cratic, has now, owing to it's love for
the gold standard, gone over to the
Republican party. When such advo-
Gates of the old Democratic principles
find the safest haven in the Republic
can party and Teller, Towne, and 9TH
er good and true Republicans support
the candidates of the rejuvenated
Democratic party, then which is the
party that saved the Union and which
the party of the Rebellion? Does it
not indicate that the people are divid-
ed on other issues, that both the old
parties have broken camp and pitched
their tents in other fields? Every man
now needs to be an independent think
er who with his field glass of judy
ment Is willing to survey the new field
of strife, in order that he may with
precision know to locate himself with
the party that wants. to save the ma
ton. Which will you have, the re-
publicanized Democracy led by w. J.
Bryan or the democratified Republi-
canism under the dictatorship of Boss
Hanna?

Well, Bro. Crosby is interested in
having a big political fight in this
county next summer. He sympathizes
with us for the money we have spent
in politics ~ but he is evidently
vexed because he thinks we are not
liable to spend any more. We pre-
sumo he figures that if there is no fight
here he is not liable to draw q clean
81 900 for his support, as we have
been told he got last fall from the re-
publican campaign committee.
We have helped to put up two cam
paigns in this county with the only re-
suit that the republican newspapers OF
the county have been able to bleed
their party and candidates out OF
small fortunes to use against us in

that the populist leaders of this coun-

A NORTHWESTERN OPPRESSION.

There is not a county in the Sixth
District which is not directly Interested
in the lumber industry and therefore
nothing Mr.. Morris could have done
in congress would have made him
more friends than his support Of the 81
rate on lumber. And Mr.. Towne
could not have taken stand more Of
fensive to his home district than he
did when he secretly worked to: defeat
that measure. The voters willlet the
two candidates know what they think
of this matter when the 1898 ideas of
November come.-Anoka Herald
If the opinion in the above para
graph is true and correct, it illustrates
very clearly the selishness Of. pro-
tective tariff. From the standpoint of
Seventh district farmers who have to
pay 81 additional for lumber the
course of Morris seems outrageous.
In the opinion of the News the lum-
Der industry of the Northwest. looked
at in all it's phases, presents the most
oppressive and outrageous abuses of
government that exists. Minnesota
has been blessed by nature with boun-
teous forests. Millions upon millions
of feet of pine have grown in her for
ests~ and much still remains There
are few states in the union where lum-
Der could be sold at a lower rate if
healthy and honest competition was
allowed to operate. There are few
states where cheap lumber would be a
greater blessing, as the winters are
long and cold, and much of her SUR
face is open prairie. Instead Of hav.
ing cheap lumber the prices are enor-
mously high, and double what they are
in some states where the sources oil
supply have not been placed in the
hands of rings and combinations. By
the corrupt and lax administration Of
our state government, the stimber OF
our vast forest domain has beer
turned over at prices ranging from
sl.OO to $500 per one thousand feet
to monopolists, when honestly sold
and much of it has been stolen by then
outright. These buckeneers have beer
enabled 70 sell it TO the people for 81;
10 $50 per thousand.

LEVEE WORK.

AT Memphis, Ou Wednesday, Aug
1ltb, contracts we're lot for the con.
struction of nearly 100000 yards OF
levee work, consisting Of closing the
breaks and enlarging the levees of the
Lower Yazoo aud Upper Tensas dis
tricts.
The specifications for the work pro.
yided that all crevssses should be
closed by Jan, 1st, 1898, but bidders
for enlargement work were allowed
to name figures at which they would
complete the work by March 1st, 1898,
or Jan 1st, 1899.
Major Startling, who was present al
the letting of contracts, sad that the
bids for work in his district were al
as reasonable figure as he had ex-
pected, and were little, If any, upon
the average, above the prices for lie
same class of work in recent years.
In the estimates prepared by Captain
Newcomer there was a fund left for
each of the divisions above what be
thought that the work would cost !;
and if the figures check up about
what he estimated for tie work or
less, there will be supplemental let
ting in the near future. The success

A very significant evidence of the
condition of Greenvile is found in
the fact that there are 10 houses for
rent in The city. Cases have even oc-
Cured recently in which Two families
have rented house together, be-
cause of the scarcity. This state OF
affairs has beeu known before, but
only in winter, and when the business
lie of the place was at flood tide.
Gehorally, al this season, the sign "for
rent" is common enough, and proper
ty owners generally have been in the
habit of regarding tho summer as a
time of loss. Rents are not excessive,
however, as might be inferred from
the scarcity of houses, bat will pro-
badly Increase, as it Is reasonable 10
suppose that the demand will grow
with the Increase of population aud
business after the opening Of the fall
sasSOD. There is no safer investment
for a few thousands than the pur-
chase of lots on Shelby or O'Hea stree
both beautiful avenues-and the
erec ion Of neat cottages which would
be convenient TO the business district
aud acceptable homes for rcsPec ab Q
white persons of modest means.

been recognized as valuable food for
