THE NEwBERRY HERALD AND NEWS APRIL 40 1893

1t would bo interesting to know the
form OF pledge that was used through
out tho State In the campaign Of 1900,
after tho adoption of the amendment
relating to faetions. II the usual pledge
was given to abide ne result Of the pri-
mary and support the nominees Of the
party, without any reference TO the
famous amendment. how ON the t St
be made In tho campaign OF 1898, when
the executive committee ignored IT In
the last campaign? 1t would be dead
letter, and would rightfully be regarded
as nullity. Publish the pledge as IT
vile Mountaineer.
1t makes no difference what was done
in 1896 except to show whether or not
tho executive committee did itc duty
IL the committee did not perform its
duty in 1896 that is no reason the plain
requirements should be ignored this
year. Then there was 40 factional
nomination, This year there is.
However,, we hope the State cOnven-
tion will strike out that clause of the
ProhibiiioniS;S 10 feel that any techni-
cal advantage is being taken OF them
OF their c. candidate but il it remains we
do moi see how any candidate who ac-
ccpi< nomination on this ticket can
take the pledge without doing violence
10 his conscience. 1t was put in there
to avoid the very thing the Prohibi-
uonists have dc 10 and the fact that the
Morntainfer continues TO argue the
point is evidence that 1t fecls the truth
OF the situation.
We think it was mistake to have
made fnctional nominations and We do
not desire to oo understood as endors
ing it. That is tho thing wc have been
fighting for several years and now that
the people had about gotten together
we regret this action OF the Prohibi.
| tionists, but We believe tho best way
| to deal with it Is to give them all the
| rope they want.
When tho Reform faction made nom
nations they claimed to be acting in
side tho Democratic party bat they had
u separate and distinct organization
AS we understand it that is the purpose
of the Pr0hibitionists. In fact State
Chairman Jones has called for town
ship organizations and u full county
executive committee and county con
vcntion. The primary was intended t.
do away with this and give every can
| didatc TN opportunity to go before the
people

COLORED TROOPS,

1t is stated that the President will
very likely call for 10000 volunteers
from the negroes. We think he should
and that they should be permitted to
go at once to Cuba. They can stand
the climate better than any others and
there is no reason why they should not
make good soldiers in war to bring
freedom to their noighbors over in
Cuba.
BY all means let them bo called out
and sent TO Cuba.

1t is suggested that there should be
no p6liticarcampaign this year and we
thinkathe suggestion good one. With
war business will be depressed to a
large extent and our people will be in
no condition to listen 70 political har-
ranguea. Let the candidates announce
their platforms OF principle and pav
the county papers to print them and
save the expense and WEAKNESS caused
by canvas OF the State. Even If the
war should be brought to terminate n
there would be no desire to have q
State campaign. II individual candi-
dates desire to make speeches let them
do SO on'their own accounts at such
place and time as, the people may de.
sire to have them.

@HE PEOPLE HAVE
learned,
that it makes but little
difference, how the
merchants quote Low
Prices, in their adver-
tlsements. That you
can always get the
same quality of goods
"A LITTLE LESS"
at A. G. JONES' Cash
Dry Goods Store.
The fact is, Cash Store, has be-
come a necessity in Newberry. AS
merchants who charge anything,
have to add additional profit to cover
the losses certain to come in the cre-
dit business, and those who pay cash
are getting tired of paying these
losses, and they know, that this en-
ables me tn sell them

The New York Election.

Elsewhere will be found some tele-
grams from New York state indicating
the election of Judge Van Wyck and
tie probable return Of a Democratic
legislature, thus insurinS the re-elec-
ton of that popular United States SEN
ator, Edward Murphy Jr Especially
gratifying news this must prove to the
Democrats of Minnesota, Who, while
they have been waging their own fierce
fight, haze not lost sight of the strug-
gle Of their Eastern brethren.
Mr.. Croker is tersa and to the Ioint.
There is no doubt in his mind about
the result. Senator Murphy, VINO is an
old state campaigner, having begun
his political career under the eye of
Samuel ]. Tilden, figures, as all up-the-
state politicians figure, on the major
ity which the Republican candidate
will take to the Harlem (Spuyten Duy-
vii creek, for the state north of the
Harlem is Republican, just as south of
it it is Democratic. In presidential
years the Republican candidates have
reached the historic water course which
separates Manhattan island from the
mainland with majorities ranging from
10000 to $4,000. Roosevelt on Senator
Murphy's figures, cannot possibly win.
The G b e has persisted in this be-
lief from the day he was nominated.
The conclusions of three such expert
enced Democrats as Messrs.. Croker,
Murphy and McCarren are most cheer
ing. New York is a Democratic state
beyond a doubt this year.
And so will be Minnesota.

expected will gather their fellow ministers
together and divide them among their
churches as they may deem wise. In this
way the attention of some church will be
called to almost every individual in the city.

tral place, where any one will be at liberty
to come and copy the names. There has
never been put forth in the city of st. Paul
an effort which may mean so much for the
prosecution of church work as this religious

A thousand times his life hangs by a thread;

Nor hears the prayers she offers up at night?

Years that have YEARLY dragged
Years that have flown and griefs that have

Hark to the summons that comes
Hear the merciless roll of the drumsi

There is soul-stirring work to be done!

The city has been districted into th1rty-sx

has been made, which shows the number Of

Nelson's Bad Quarter Hour.

1t comes to The G b e, in authen-
tic form, that Senator Nelson had
very bad quarter of an hour the other
day while coming down the St. Pauf
& Duluth. A fellow passenger was a
former Republican representative from
Isanti county, Swede, but who two
years ago was and now is working for
Lind. Him the senator took to task
for his recreancy to the 6. o. Z. He
upbraided him for permitting ties of
nationality to prove stronger than ties
Of party. He should not vote for Lind
merely because Lind is of the same ma
tionality; that was treachery to party,
and that again was treachery to the
country, and much more to the same
purpose. While the Isantian listened
his memory was working and his
choler rising: When the gentleman
from Otter Tail finished, the volcano
from Isanti went into eruption "You
are the last man in the state, senator
to talk that way to me or to any other
SWede. When you were running for
governor in 1892 you told Scandinavian
Democrats that they were unworthy
Of their nationality if they refused to
vote for one of their own for that high
office. You demanded their votes be-
cause you and they were fellow coun-
trymen. At Elbow Lake you went
down from the platform and bulIied a
Norwegian who dared to differ with
you. When you were a candidate for
senator you bullied Republican legis-
lators of your nationality who were
pledged to vote for Washburn into vot-
ing for you. Have you forgotten the
arguments you used to Senator Row
erud in the Merchants hotel? Have
you forgotten how you asked Norwe-
gians and Swedes to have a fellow
feeling in their breasts for you, a
Scandinavian seeking preferment? And
now you come to us Swedes and tell
US we are traitors if we vote for
Swede for governor; that we must have
none of that fellow feeling for a
brother Swede which you insisted four
and six years ago we must have for
you. Why do you now say we must
not do as you advised us then to do?"
Because" replied the perturbed
senator, thus dosed with his own med
icine, 1--WE Republicans must all stand
by our party"
''But if Democratic Swedes and Nor
wegians then should not stand by their
party, but should leave it to vote for
you because Morse blood runs in your
veins, why should We not now vote
for Lind for the same reason?"
And the senator suspended the dis
cussion.

METROPOLITAN,

that is saying great deal, for the enthusiasm
that comes from numbers was not present
Mr.. Clements company consists of but
nine, but it is winning nine, and it so won
the favor of it's auditors last night that after
the second act the audience would have gone
into Mysteries at the slightest provocation.
The play is not new here and Mr., Clements
Baron Won Hohenstauffen needs no extended
notice. To say that Mr.. Clement has i'm
proved since his last appearance here would
be to disparage an occasion pleasant in the
memory of those who enjoyed his presence;
to say that he has deteriorated would be
unjust. Mr.. Clements performance OF his
role is marked by careful study Of the
minor accessories which made his creation
success long ago and keeps 1t fresh and yiyi-
flying yet.
The supporting company is excellent Mr..
Clement, as Josephine, is not less charming
than she is beautiful. And her subtle cruelty
