In his business career I want to charge
against Mr.. Eustis deliberately that Mr.
Eustis was director in the greatest swndle
that the state has ever seen or ever known
not only In this state, but the great North
west. l want to charge that Mr.. Epstis was
director and participated in the directors
meetings and had full knowledge Of that
gigantic SWindle, the Guaranty Loan en-
pany, Of Minneapolis. And l defy Mr.. Eustis
or any of his friends to deny the fact that
he participated in the meetings Of the d.
rectors OF that company, which swindled the
people out Of 100000; which broke one Of
the most prosperous banks in my own coun-
ty, and I tell you the people down there
don't love him.
1 make this charge with the full knowledge
of the consequences, and I want to ask
you, my friends, If you want to elect a
man to the governorship with such a record
as that. Has he the right to call anybody
else members Of the gang?" I don't make
this charge against Mr.. Eustis because he Is
a Republican. but because he stands before
you asking your suffrage to the highest
position in the gift of the people Of this state
And the governor is an executive officer
and we want to Judge whether he will make
a good governor from a business mans
standpoint, and you, my friends, are best
qualified to judge whether you want a man
with that kind OF a record for your governor.
Another point I want to call attention to,
my friends. is the difference between the
government Of this nation and the govern
ment Of the nations Of the old world. The
difference Is that we are governed by statute

under the Stars and Stripes we have religious
liberty. very man has a right to worship
mis- God as he sees fit. No man has a right
to say to you how you shall worship Him
and he has right to kneel in what church
ne pleases as long he is a law-abiding
citizen. This thing Of defeating a candidate
by playing upon your religious prejudices
should cease. Your safety and mine lies in
continuing the policy which has made this
nation that was built upon religious liberty
under the Stars and Stripes. and that is
that man is responsible only to his God and
his conscience for his religion. I want Won
to aRnihilate the men that brought these
charges again John Lind. Carry this home
with you and think of the damnable outrage
OF bringing such charges against man.
Think what his gray-hairod old mother must
have thought when she heard these stories
about the boy she loved and trusted Carry
these things home with you and see If Won
can In conscience, vote against a man who
has passed through that kind Of an ex-
perience and that kind OF a campaign
what say 1 say deliberately and when I
make charge make 1t knowingly.

My friends, in the congressional election
this fall 1t will be your privilege to choose
between the man who has been thoroughly
educated, a man who has been in public
life many years in the city of st. Paul and
in the state, man whose record is an open
book, a man who has served with ability
while upon the bench, man who has par
ticipated all the time in public life, and
man who has been scrutinized as severely
as any man in public life ever was and they
have absolutely failed to pick a flaw as to
his character, honesty or integrity-it will
be your privilege to choose between such

the front. and he didn't know when he could
come home, but there is only one thing that
John Lind knows in public affairs, and that
Is duty. He considered it his duty to tender
his services to the governor when the war
broke out, and when the people, out Of their
own hearts, sent men to the state cOnven-
ton and no other name but his was pre-
scented FOR the nomination, John Lind knew
1t was his duty TO tender his services to
lead the people to victory against the corpo-
ra1ons, and I will tell you my friends, that
when his duties quartermaster are over,
when he has rendered his account to the gov
eminent, John Lind will enter this canvass.
and he will make it so hot, I was going to
say, that Mr.. Eustis will think there is a
devil after him.

he will close his office at 2 o'clock in

My friends, as I pointed out to you, Eustis
secured the nomination by the use of money,
to create enthusiasm for himself, as confessed
by their own men, On the 18th day of June,
in the city Of Minneapolis, met three con-
ventions-the Democratic convention. the
Peoples party convention and the Silver Re
pub!icans-and l want to call your attention
to their actions When the war we referred
to broke out, one of the first men in the
state to offer his services in any capacity in
which the governor could use them was
man that was nominated by these three con-
ventions for the Office of governor-our own
fellow citizen, John Lind. (Applause) My
friends, he didn't spend any money to
cure that nomination; he protested, rather,
against being nominated; he was serving at

For forty years, my friends. the Republican
party has been in absolute control of the
state government in this state. and has be-
come corrupt, and want to say to you,
when I charge corruption against the Repub-
lican party, do not charge 1t against them
as Republicans, but because the Republican
party Is made up of men who have the com
mon nature of man, and when any party Is
placed in power without change for that long

other side for congress. Can there be any
question on how you are going to vote
when you go into the booth? I tell you. nv
friends that you will elect Judge Willis to
congress. and you will sand q man whom thu
state of Minnesota will be proud Of and who
not only represent this district but a man
who will command the respect Of the nation.

pacites than simply being the agent of some

The Campaign Sander.

The particular line of assault that
the Republican state committee will
attempt when it begins to asperse the
clara cter of John Lind this fall is not
yet announced, but it will be ineffec-
tual Two years ago the Republican
managers attacked Mr.. Lind in a quar-
ter that the candidate for office least
expects attack. Under the freedom of
speech and conscience that Is assured
by the constitution it is never to be
expected that a candidate for office will
be attacked because of his religious
convictions-or lack of conviction
In the last state campaign the Re-
publican managers made an attack
that could not we'll be answered. 1t
directed its newspaper organs to charge
Mr.. Lind with being an atheist, in
those localities in which that state Of
conscience would be reprObated: it di-
rected that, in other quarters, he should
be charged with being antagonistic to
one of the most prominent Of the Chris
tan denominations The candidate
was assailed in his most sacred rights
in the aSpersions made, and the attack,
being irsidiOusly made and utterly in
defensible in a campaign that was near
ing it's close, affected the result to some
extent.
When the campaign closed Mr. Lind
sued the st. Paul Dispatch for Islander
in calling him an atheist. The only
defense attempted by the Dispatch was
that it considered the use of such
weapon justifiable in a political cam
paign. 1t failed to sustain the charge
and finally admitted 1t.
In another column The Glob this
morning prints some extracts from a
speech made by Chairman Rosing the
other day which are worth close at
tentiOn. He shows that these absurd
but malicious charges were proved
groundless. He does not attempt to
anticipate the line of attack this fall
That some equally malicious and alb
surd statements will be made is to be
anticipated. The people being fore
warned by the experience of 1896, any
campaign story Of this year ought to
fall to the ground without even hear
ing.

My friends, the immediate condition that
confronts us is briefly what I touched on In
starting-the fact that for forty years a Re-
publican administration has had absolute con-
troll OF this state. Mr.. Eustis was nominated
by the Republican convention this summer
IN opposition to the gang" Mr.. Eustis was
to turn down the gang; he was good and true
and pure and the other fellow was awful; he
was the only pure man in the whole party;
put on the other fellows were simply awful
Chey were the gang" and SO, by the use Of
as Jerry j. says $1,000 in Minneapolis as
starter for pure campaign, and, as said
by another Republican paper, using SO, coo
in the state, he managed to use purity enough

Now will the Minneapolis Journal
please state that neither Mr. Lind nor
any member of the Democratic state
central committee has ordered a sin
gle Lind button made in New Jersey
or any other state of the Union out
side Of Minnesota? The Journal has
found some person who has ordered
and is selling Lind buttons for pri-
vate gain. The Journal knows quite as
we'll as anybody that Mr.. Lind cannot
prevent anybody who so desires from
having Lind buttons made even in the
City Of Mexico, Sitka, Manila or Shang-
hal, and selling them wherever he can
find 1t profitable to do so. The Of
fetal Lind button was made in Min
