Will the Pioneer Press remember Ig-
natius Donnelly on his wedding day,
and what will be the nature of its gift?
The silver republicans and the popu-
lists in the present congress have agreed
to work together in the coming election.
Hon. Chas. A. Towne's suit against
the St. Paul Dispatch for libel will be
tried next month. Mr.. Towne sues for
$4,000. .-..-
Gen. Weyler has been sentenc ed to
two months Imprisonment at Madrid.
Had the Cubans been given half show
they would have relieved Spain of the
expense of his keeping. "
In a speech at Washington last We'd
nesday Senator Thurston said believe
the Republican party is in danger of
losing the next congress, and so believ-
ing it, were cowardly on my part not to
say SO.
Tom Reed may yet rue the czar-like
exhibitions of authority with which he
now lords it over the Republican men,
bers of the house. The chances are that
the next house will be against him, and
strongly so too.
Senator Miller of the Luverne Herald
does not propose t" lend responsibility

in the northern part of the state who las
drawn ,alary from the state nearly ev-

The Ju 7ge had better hang to his seat
on the supreme bench rather than chase
around after the governors chair, for if
he should be nominated Lind will fill
the char and the Judge would he look
ing for work.

was on Friday acquitted of the charge of
criminal libel brought against him 10y
the Hennepin county grand jury at the
1nstigation Of the Minneapolis Trust Co.
The verdict is~a righteous one and in the
interests of the people. The Times was
doing a noble service for the public in
exposing the devious business methods
of the Sam Hill outfit, and to have con-
victed him of a crime would have been
an outrage upon reason. The public is
suffering for want of more courageous
papers like the Times

Democratic ticket and elect an ignora-

honest democrats from being insulted by
such references as the above, What puz-

willing to own the hand that feeds them.
