Senator Roger @. Mills, Of Texas, is
entirely cured of his free silver no.
tions and is looking upon things In
their right light. He has declined to
again make the race for the United
States senate because his party has
completely surrendered to ssilver, and
to make the attempt with his present
belief would be a fruitless job, while
to win success would demand a sink
ing of principle for office. Speaking
of free and unlimited coinage, he
says:
If we can open our minis to the un-
limited coinage of silver at the ratio
of l ounce of gold for Is ounces OF
silver, when in every market in the
world l ounce of gold Is worth 30
ounces of silver. we will soon part
with all gold and have all silver. But
that is not bimetallism, That is mo.
nOmetallism.
Senator Mills puts the matter clear
and concise, showing what would re-
suit from free coinage. 1t is too bad
that he did not look into this question
more thoroughly a few years ago
when he was working to help build up
the present free coinage sentiment,
but a change of heart is always better
late than never.

GERRY j." in the Minneapolis
ournal, falls into the same error as
does the Pioneer Press in holding
that the Swedish-American voters
would vote for John Lind, simply be-
cause he is one of their nationality,
and that they did two years ago. The
counties of Goodhue, Wabasha and
Washington are among the heaviest
populated by Swedish-Americans in
the state, and Gov. Clough carried all
three of them by good majorities.
Had the Swedish-American voters
slumped as is claimed there IS not
much question but MI. Lind would
have carried them and been elected.
It is unfair to charge them with de-
sorting when they did not do so. The
slump in the counties where there Is
a considerable Swedish-American vote
8 no greater than in counties where
there are few or none.

After all the talk about European
help for Spain, it seems that only one
country has come out openly. and
that is Austria. Whether Austria
would Join forces or not with Spain
or would simply content herself with
lending adm the way of money and
sympathy, is not stated. But even if
she did. it would change the situation
but little, as Austria Is not a strong
power. Besides this she is torn by
internal dissensions which may make
it very uninteresting for her to en-
gage in a war of the nature that aid
to Spain would be. But all this talk
of European sympathy has no effect
upon the administration. 1t proceeds
right along the line it has pursued
from the first, and is said to have in
formed the Austrian minister that it
would settle with Spain for the
disaster without reference to
or the advice of European powers.

TWO FIRES.
Fire Bug Continues His Work
in MankatO.
The Wampler Carpenter Shop and q
Barn at WidelIs Quarry Burn Sat-
urday Evening.

Two more fires. both probably in
cendiary. occurred Saturday evening.
The first was discovered at six o'clock,
when smoke and flames were seen is
suing from the old frame building
on the rear Of the Wampler property,
on Broad street. An alarm was sent
in from box q, and the fire depart
ment speedily arri we'd on the scene.
The building was n Of the old land
marks, and was formerly used by Cor
nelius Wampler as a carpenter shop.
Aid. John Adams afterwards occupied
it, but had not used it for the past six
MONTHS although his tools were stored
there. Nyholm & Carlson had a large
quantity of wooden cement moulds
stored on the first floor, while the
attic was packed with old blinds,
mouldings, turned work and odd
pieces of all kinds that had from time
to time been stored there. This made
plenty of dry fuel for the fire, and also
made it difficult to extinguish, and it
was some time before the fire could
be put out.
Capt. Clark Keysor was the custo-
dian of the building, and had the
keys. He states that all of the doors
were locked except one or the north
side, which was held shut by an iron
bar on the outside, and which could
be easily entered by anyone.
The barn belonged to the Wampler
estate, and the loss was about 5000.
The cement moulds were also lost, but
Mr.. Adams tools were removed to a
place Of safety.

When the United STAGES supreme
court delivered it's decision in the Ne
braska maximum freight rate case,
which was written by Justice Harlan,
the Popocrats turned all sorts of
colors and declared that Harlan and
the court were simply the tools Of the
railroads. But a day OF two ago
Justice Harlan delivered another de-
cision for the court which was direct.
ly against the railroads. This af-
tirmed the constitutionality CT the
Kansas laws prohibiting the trans
portation of cattle affected with
Texas fever through the state. The
Populists have to keep humping pref
ty lively to keep Oh all sides and they
may conclude after a while that the
supreme courts tries to get pretty
close to the law in all it's decisions.
and seldom fails. There is a vast diff
ference between what is law, and
what are the personal desires of some
people.
