The -publicexaminer has issued
a statement showing that he has
fully and with care investigated
the affairs and management of
eStateAuditor S Office. and from
the findings of the examiner it
would seem to clear Mr.. Hannum
from the charges made. 1t ap-
pears that while warrants were
drawn for clerk hire for Mrs.
Hannum for work never perform
ed. the money received for these
warrants was actually paid out to
other clerks who were employed
to do the work required of her.
If these facts are so as stated by
Mr.. Langlie. then Mr.. Hannum is
not to be blamed at all and has
not appropriated any state money
for clerk hire only for services
actually performed. So ends this
great ado over clerk hire. Bring

if the citizens of this country give

and founder of the great Pullman
car system, is dead. He leaves
a fortune estimated at from thirty
to forty millions. Mr.. Pullman
was a big employer of labor, and
owned the town of Pullman. Two
years or so ago the entire system
ofrailroads was almost completely
tied up on account of the large
strike on the. Pullman system.

utterly at a loss to understand
how it is that their hold upon the
masses, whom they have so long
dictated to, is gradually growing
weaker, while the cry for muni-
cipal reform is rapidly growing
stronger. The Platt machine,
which is responsible for the nom
ination of General Tracy, is OBJ
noxious to the rank and file of the
republican party, and Van Wyck,
the Tammany candidate. isequally
obnoxious to the rank and file of
the democratic party. These two
factions and machines are pitted
against Henry George. the single
tax advocate, and Seth Low, indie
pendent republican. and the can
didate of the municipal reform
ers. At this writing it looks as
il the Tammany tiger was going
to get its claws clipped and the
Plat Tracy machine was going
to get smashed up-a consumma-
,ion that all lovers of decent gov
ernment hope to see come about.
Henry George, with his peculiar
ideas, is not q safe man to elect to
this high and responsible Office,
the real issue should be machine
VS.. anti-machine. and the voters
that is all in favor of municipal
reform and good government
should lend their support toward
the election of Mr.. Seth Low, the
people S candidate. Principle and
not party should win in this fight,
and we believe that is just what
the result of the election will be.

The Difference.

There was a slight eruption in jag
wagon circles Tuesday afternoon. MI.
Allen who has opened q book store
next door the Webster hotel, objects
to having wagons standing in front OF
his place of business, and he politely
invited the driver of the Mike Lynch
wagon to move on. This the young
fellow refused TO do, and Mr. Allen
appealed to the mayor for aid. The
young fellow was ordered to vacate.
which he did very promptly. This did
not end it with the young man who was
faithful to his calling. He went over
to Moorhead and told his boss about
the matter. Mr. Lynch came over and
drove the wagon in front of the book
ST., again. The mayor was sent for
again lad this time there vas all kind,
OF trouble. Lynch wanted to know
why ''a man like himself, who L:l.
lived i'll these parts for years. could
not have more right to the street than
a new conner who has come to sell n
bankrupt stock of books. The mayor
very cmphatically informed Mr.. Lynch
that he was not the whole cheese. and
told him further that lie would not per-
NIT any saloon man in Moorhead To
come across the river and run this
town, and that his claims were not in
it with the claims of man who had
opened up a Legitimate store and was
conducting it on legitimate basis :
