The Mile Laos Times, which was op-
posed and will oppose the reelection
of Congressman Morris, praises him
highly for the good work he has ac-
complished for that county. The Times
says he has accomplished more than
could reasonably be expected : of a
representative during the first term.
This is certainly a good endorsement
of our congressman Todd County A.
gus.
The legislator who will make a win
ming fight for government control of
the express business will be the great
est benefactor of the age. There is no
argument which can be made for GOV
eminent control of the postal affairs
that will not apply with almost equal
force to the express business. Express
charges are outrageously high and
nothing but government ownership

The Republicans of Pennsylvania
had what they pleased to call nonin-
ating convention the other day AS
usual, Matt Quay telegraphed the con-
vention what he wanted tito do, and it
is unnecessary to remark that the con-
vention promptly did it, Some day
Pennsylvania will wake up, as New
York did on a recent occasion, and
find that the voters at large will do the
work which the party should have
done, and then it will be found that
there is no party worth speaking of left
in Pennsylvania. The people will
stand boss just so long, and then they
will quit.

THE announced determination of the
government to, invade the province of
Santiago, in Cuba, and to invest. Puerto
Rico, will strike the uninitiated, as
we'll as the military experts, as being
the most practical way Of bringing the
war to speedy close. The occupation
of Puerto Rico will cut off the princi-
pal source Of Spanish supplies and give
US the key to the situation between
Cuba and Spain, while by establishing
communication and cooperation be-
tween the American troops and the
insurgents, the Spaniards can soon be
driven out of Cuba or forced to surren-
der. And the best of it is that it will
avoid the necessity of our soldiers cam
paigning in the unhealthy interior of
Cuba.

IT is not at all difficult to understand
why the troops that are being enlisted
prefer to go into the volunteer, rather
than the regular service. In the
former they are enlisted and operated
under their own officers, and are asso-
ciated with their own friends and &C.
quaintances. In the regular. army
they simply become part of a great
machine, are oficered by men who do
not know them and who care nothing
about them or their affairs. In the
army of the rebellion is was found that
the volunteers were fully as good fight
ers and as, good discip linarians as the
regular troops, while the spirit of COM
radeship was stronger among them
and made them more loyal to: each
other, without being any the less loyal
to the flag under which they served.

The heroism of Lieutenant Dobson
and the sailors who manned the Mer-
rimac and ran her into the neck ofthe
channel Of the harbor of Santiago de
Cuba will be remembered by a crate
full and appreciative nation as long as
there is patriotism in the hearts of
men. It was one of the most heroic
deeds OF all history, and the men who
performed it will have a permanent
niche in fame. They had not one
chance out of 100 to come out of it
alive, and that they did is due solely
to the poor craftsmanship of the Span
ISL gunners. The nation should give
them some substantial token OF its APP
probation of their heroism.

Now that we have the assurance of
bountiful crops and fair prices every
American citizen, of whatever party or
faith, will join in the hope that the
farmer, and not the gamblers of the
Chicago wheat pits, will get the bene-

nothing short of a crime that the nee
essaries of life should be made the
stock in trade OF such a set of remorse-
less gamblers and mercenaries, and it
is not particularly to the credit of con
gress that it has found no way to put a
stop to the pernicious system.

Il Wants a New Trial.

Before Judge Baxter this morning
the arguments for and against a new
trial were made in the personal injury
suit of John e. Moore against the vii
lage OF Milaca and others. Moore was
struck by q ladder, which had been
left leaning against a house on the
principal street Of Milaca, and sus-
tanned certain injuries by the blow.
He sued for damages, and a jury at the
last term Of the Mile Laos countv
court gave him a verdict of 81. 900.
The arguments. for a second trial were
made by Chas. Keith, Of Princeton,
and A. E.sGiddings, Of Anoka, argued
against the granting Of the motion.

A Dozen Shot Lodged In His

Yesterday while out on little
hunting expedition, Louie Lund,
one of the best known news boys
of our city, was accidentally shot
by one of his companions.
The young man shot at rabbit
when the contents struck the
ground, then rebounded and a
dozen shot hit young Lund, lodg-
Ing in his face, neck and breast.
He rallied and walked the four
miles home, DR.. J. ]. Golf was
called and rendered the necessary
medical aid. Every one was ex-
cited and grieved over the unfortu-
nate occurrence, but thaskful that
none OF the shot made serious or
very painful wound. Louie is cheer
full today, and entertains no unkind
feeling toward his companion. The
accident was the newsboy's misfor-
tune, only, and it is expected, as
we'll as confidently hoped, that both
the young nimrods will be particu-
larly careful ever afterward.

A BLOODY ENCOUNTERS


There was a CORY combat on the
south end of the depot platform,
late last evening, and if the stones
had speech, an interesting history
of love and hate at variance, with
its elimination in this ARRAY, might
be given public utterance. As it
was, only the principals and the
two women, whose smiles and IA
vors were the bone of contention,
were in the neighborhood of the
Hateful struggle, and their lips are
sailed as to the details Of the battle
for supremacy.
This morning. the platform in,
volved in the scrap" presents the
appearance of a slaughter-house,
so far as blood is concerned. The
stones within quite radius are
dyed deep crimson, and if blood
stains determine the mightiness of
fstic encounter, this one must
have been awful.
Mr.. Kelly, night operator at the
station, had his attention attracted
by the dull thud of the blows and,
came within safe clearing distance
Of the o1odiatorc h,1t the DARKNESS
prevented him from identifying
them. The women were interested
spectators throughout.
The one who offered up his blood
on the altar OF love was badly pun
ished and lay where he had fallen
for some time before reviving. Not.
waiting to ascertain how badly the
fallen foe was injured, the successful
one lett hastily with the two fe.
males.
