From our present war with Spain,
one lesson should be learned: Ana
tons glory consists, not in it's mater
ial wealth, but in it's men. War tests
the metal Of men. Our boys at the
front give evidence Of vigorous man
hood, and we have, therefore, great
reason to feel patriotic pride in our
country. Liberty is, after all, good
soil in which to raise men.-G. A.

POpuliSm DiSintegrating.

Fosston Thirteen Towns: Popu-
lism in the northwest this year shows
every sign OF approaching dissolu-
ton. With the fusionists OF North
Oak ota wondering where they are at
and the Populists and Democrats of
Minnesota knowing that they are at
anything but harmonious UNDER
standing with each other, Republi-
can success will he more oYerwhelnl-
ing than is usually the fortune OF the
party in power in an off year.
In Polk county the Populist ava
lanche has long shown signs OF break
ing up. When the breaking up does
come it will come with a grand crash.
Signs of disintegration are more
numerous and more alarming to
Populist leaders this year than ever
before. Lukewarmness on the part
of the masses Of the party and divi-
sion among it's leaders are ominous
indications of collapse. The Thir-
teen Towns has been a hot-bed OF
Populism but this year no town in
this section will return a solid Popu-
list vote, as has frequently been the
case heretofore. Every township con-
tains voters who are outspoken in
this remuneration OF the Populist par
ty. The Republicans will gain from
ten to seventy-five per cent of the
Populist vote in every township OF
the Thirteen Towns this fall.
