Lind in ChiSaQO.

A Minneapolis republican Judge has
just returned from Isanti and Chisago
counties, and here is what he says of the
political situation: II was surprised to
hear from conservative men of my own
party that, while Lind got only one of
five votes at the last election, he will get
one of three votes this time.
The situation in Goodhue is the same.
Two years ago Clough carried itby near
ly 1000. This year the republicans con-
cede that Lind will cut that down from
1900 to 1900.
Nothing can now stem the tide that is
going to land John Lind in the guberna-
torial chair and give the people for once
a straightforward, manly administration.
New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1898-11-02

He even welcomes the aid of Bank Ex-
aminer Kenyon and encourages him to
throw mud at John Lind, when he knows
that Kenyon has been demonstrated to
be incompetent and that the people de-
mand his removal for that reason. So
far as Mr.. Eustis' present attitude indi-
Gates he won Id retain Mr.. Kenyon in Of
fee.
One listened in vain for a single word
from Mr.. Eustis that would indicate his
purpose to make any changes in the
crowd of ward heelers and political
hacks that fill the state Offices. He wants
votes, and is apparently ready to take
the old "machine' to his bosom, pro-
vided its followers will give the neces-
sary votes to place him in the governors
chair. Mr.. Eustls is disappointment.
Nominated on the plea that he would
fight the old Republican machine and
purge the state house of official corrup-
ton and ineficiency, he appeals for elec-
| ton on the absurd plea that the presi-
dent must be- sustained, when he we'll
knows that throughout the war with
Spain and in the peace negotiations the
administration has bad and is receiving
the united support of loyal people, re-

as their present intention is to place

Lind's Local Meetings.
Satisfactory Gatherings at Springfield
Sleepy Eye, Winthrop and Linden.
The Candidate Strikes Some Te1lin
Blows in Behalf of the Forces
of Reform.

John Lind is not without a host of
admirers, even in his own bailiwick.
Finding little leisure time while at
home on duty last week, he arranged to
pay visit to number of the neigh
boring towns. The results we're in
every way gratifying.
Wednesday afternoon he spoke at
Springfield. 1t was expected that he
would arrive there on schedule time,
but for some reason the train was nearly
two hours late and did not reach Spring.
field until five o'clock. Consequently
many of the farmers who had come in
to- hear him returned to their homes
with regret.
A large crowd remained, however, and
they met Mr.. Lind at the depot with
enthusiastic cheers, enlivened by the
music of the Springfield band.
The meeting at the hall was equally
encouraging.
In the evening the candidate talked
to between four and five hundred people
at Sleepy Eye.
The effects of that speech were un-
doubtedly in Mr. Lind's favor. The
| audience followed him closely and
manifested their approval of many OF
his utterances with frequent bursts OF
applause.
| The Winthrop meeting was rcuser'
Over 800 people were packed into the
hall. and several hundred were turned
away.
Enthusiasm ran high, and all of ii
was warranted, for Mr.. Lind made a
speech that challenged admiration.
The drift of his remarks was much
the same as at Minneapolis, but it was
the illustration and side trusts that made
it effective.
AS an instance of the way the people
feel this year, it night be mentioned
that seventy-three far.ners boarded the
train at Lafayette.
A large party also came ia from Gay
lord and Green Isle.
That Mr.. Lind will carry Sibley coun
ty is conceded on all sides, even by re-
publicans.
| Saturday night, good and successful
meeting was held IN Linden. All of tn
leading party workers were present
some of them driving from ten to fiftee1
miles. At this meeting speeches wer
) made by Mr.. Lind, Editor Hodges an
1 Capt. Albert Steinhauser.

The difference Between the lien.

Those. who heard the plain, manly
and straightforward address recently de-
livered here by John Lind, in which he
discussed the issues of the state cam
paign and outlined the policy he would
pursue as governor, and who listened TO
the speech by w. H. Eustis Monday
night must have been forcibly struck by
the difference between the two men. Mr..
Eustis evaded discussion of the state
issues, and, with the exception of few
remarks in his own defense, no one
would have supposed that he aspires to
be governor of Minnesota. His address
was mainly patriotic speech, Fourth
of July Grafton, with the exception that
his partisanship was exhibited in the ao-
surd claim that it was Republican war,
and that, if the Republicans are defeat
ed next month, Europe will regard it as
a reputation of the administration ana
Spain will demand better terms.
Mr.. Eustis must take the people fo1
gudgeons if he imagines that such clap
trap will be accepted by them in lieu Of
discussion and argument of the issues o.
the campaign. Last summer, when hi
was seeking the gubernatorial nominal
ton, he had much to say in denuncla
ton of the state house ring and agains
the "machine." Since his nomination
change has come over his attitude. Il
no longer rails against the machine;
on the contrary, he is eager in solicitiL
the support of those who compose th
"machine," and The members of the stat
house ring are his closest friends. b
no longer threatens to clean out th
state capitol and fill the Offices wit
competent men instead of political hack

DEWEY'S VIEW.
He Holds to the Opinion that the Filipino:
Are Well Qualified for Self
Government.

Some apprehension has been mani
tested in certain quarters as to the pos
sible adverse effect upon the peace COM
mission at Paris of an upheaval in France.
1t has been suggested that the Spanish
cause is in such shape that the Spanish
government has nothing to lose and ev-
erything to gain by any change that can
be brought about. However, it may be
stated that in the opinion of the state de.
partment officials here, there is little
danger of the situation in Paris becoln-
ing so acute as to justify an abandon
ment of the work of the commission on
the ground that the commissioners are in
physical danger. 1t is chiefly believed
that with the change of the cabinet in
France the present disorder will subside
and normal conditions will be restored.
1t is always possible that the Spanish
commissioners, in despair over their fail
ure to force the Cuban debt upon the u
nited States in any shape, may break off
the sessions, but this is not regarded as
probable. 1t is suspected the Spanish
program is to trump up as many points
of difference as possible, relying upon
the sympathy sure to be excited among
European nations by their abandonment
of each point under compulsion from
the American commissioners as the basis
for supreme stand on the Philippines.
This being the Spanish policy, it is ex-
pected that when the commission takes
mp the subjects of Porto Rico and the
coaling station in the Ladrone islands
there will be many hair-splitting objec-
tons interspersed by the Spanish to any
propositions from the American commits
sioners, just as many references or at
tempts at reference to Madrid and just
as loud protests over each little poin1 by
the Spaniards at the uncompromlsing at
titude of the Americans as in the case of
Cuba.
No one knows officially just wha. the
extent OF the United States claim will he
as to the Philippines. Admiral Dewey
has much higher opinion of the.Phil-
ippines' people and their capacity for
self government than is generally sup
posed. He has represented to the Amer
lean commissioners that the Philippines
~of the northern group, meaning by that
first, the people of the island of Luzon'
and after that in order, Cebu, Panay,
Leite, Mindo,a and Samar, are as rule
Intelligent, practicable and "a surprising
- stt;atement) far better qualified for self
government than the inhabitants OF w.
ba. Admiral Dewey is as familiar with
the qualifications Of the Cubans IN this
respect as almost any naval officer, hav-
ING lad personal experience with the
neople. so that his statement is bound t."
have weight with the American ccmmls-
sioners. But with all this he has made
no recommendation as to what should
constitute the maximum demand OF the
Americans, and their demands conse-
ouently are likely to be based upon
their original instructions, qualified by
any change of opinion the president may
have experienced as result of his West
ern trip.
