The Minneapolis Times still per-
sists that j. j. Hill has secured con-
troll of the Northern Pacific, though
all the other dailies are denying it,
Whether it is or is not so, is a con-
lecture. But it is not impracticable,
nor yet impossible, and in view of
these facts it is we'll enough for our
Legislators to be on the safe side and
take Time by the forelock and legis-
late against any such a possibility.
Let them fix the rates of railroads
low enough SO that it will not make
any difference to the people whether
jim Hill owns all the railroade in
the state or only one. Something
should be done at this session of the
Another thing that
should not be lost sight of is the ex
press companies, as good many of
them are owned and controlled by
the railroad companies, and if they
can monopolize railroad traffic they
certainly would the express traffic,

A great many bright newspaper
men are assuming to tell just what
Speaker Reed will do at the coming
extra session, but not one of them has
given Speaker Reed as his authority.
1t should be needless to say that Mr..
Reed, even if he has fully decided
upon his exact course, which is doubt
full, has not taken anybody, outside
of the leaders of the Republican
party, into his confidence, and that
neither he nor they are in the habit
of furnishing advance programs to
newspaper men. Some things may
be surmised with fair degree of cor
rectness by almost anybody who is
fully conversant with the situation,
but when any attempt is made to
enter into details about the commit
tees of the next house and what will
or viii not be done beyond the pass,
ing of the tariff bill, for which the
extra session will be expressly called,
it is simply guessing, and that is one
Of the things that should not be done
when important matters are involved.
While clever guess often gets man
credit for wisdom, wrong guess,
when stated for fact, causes him to
be thought to be fool or a knave.

Gen. T. S. Clarkson, commander

Gen. T. S. Clarkson, commander
in-chief of the G.. A. r., who was in
Washington this week to attend the
annual encampment of the Depart
ment of the Potomac, said of Gen.
Alger, the next secretary of war: 81
was on Gen. Alger's staff when he
was commander-in-chief of the Grand
Army, and knew him very we'll.
There isn't man in the Grand Army
who doesn't believe that Gen. Tiger
was brave and a good soldier, and
We are delighted to see him made
secretary of war. It is a matter of
considerable congratulation to us
that both the president and secretary
of war will be members of the Grand
Army. We have done very we'll in
the matter of presidents since the
war. President Mckinley will be the
fifth, the others having been Grant,
Hayes, Garfield and Harrison"

metallist candidate for president, his
denial left the charge just about
where it was when first made. 1t
has been repeatedly stated in Wash
ington that Senator Pettigrew pledged
himself to a number of Republicans
to abide by the candidates and plat
form of the st. Louis convention be-
fore he was elected delegate; also
that Pettigrew would not have been
elected delegate if he had not made
that pledge. If he wishes to con
vince people that his subsequent
action was blameless he should be a
little more specific. Stating that a
convention which had just come out
flat-footed for sound money sent him
as delegate to the national conven-
ton knowing that he would bolt the
convention if it declared for sound
money, as Pettigrew in substance
does, is not convincing enough.
