Let Us Make la RGut

Not in the history Of politics in this
county is there any record of a cam
paign in which such tremendous gains
have been made by one political party
as have marked the progress Of the
Democracy to the victory that is now
assured.
Two weeks ago the Republicans of
Ramsey county, mighty in their as
surance of possession of the offices and
entrenched behind the walls reared by
an organization paid by money taken
from the taxpayers, were proud and
somewhat naughty in their disdain Of
the enemy. Today they are a defeated
mob. Two weeks ago they were strong
in the ignorance of the people as to
their conduct of affairs Today they
are trying to explain that they are
not responsible for the conditions in
the county-that they are no worse
than when the Republicans came into
power.
There never was a more encouraging
outlook for the Democracy at this
stage Of a campaign. The Republicans
were accused of using the power Of
public Office to perpetuate themselves
in official position. 1t was shown that
shameful abuse of patronage had
preceded the nomination of the Re-
publican county ticket; that the con-
ventiOn was composed of Officeholders
and clerks who were using the power
Of the Republican organization to
maintain themselves in place. 1t was
shown that the taxpayers were as
sessed directly for the per diem Of one
fourth of the members of the conven-
ton. These things opened the eyes of
the public. The people do not love
gangs, and they are not particular
what the political complexion of the
gang is. The public likes a Repub-
lican gang no more than a Democratic
gang. Evidences of gang rule were
plenty, and the taxpayer is very we'll
aware of the fact that pelf, not pa
triOtism, was at the bottom of the de-
sire of Republican officials to control
the convention.
With this state Of affairs to start on,
it was not difficult to follow up the
suggestion that there must be some
thing rotten in an administration in
the hands of such an audaCious bureau
cracy. Without any trouble, it has
been shown that the men who now
call themselves the Republican party
are getting more money out of the
country in one way or another than
they have any right to. 1t has been
made clear to thinking people that
there is something more at stake, this
fall, than party ascendancy; and the
Republican regime in this county ap-
pears to be doomed.
Never was the state of public feeling
SO obvious; never was there in evidence
so far ahead Of election so many proofs
of the fact that the taxpayers intend
to assert themselves. The fight is won,
yet the battle has scarcely commenced
Victory is assured for the Democracy,
but it should be more than victory
indeed. It should be a complete rout
of the forces Of corruption. And that
is what is in sight for Nov. 8.

Taking Another Diversion.

A year ago Republican managers
" ere in despair. When congress met a
hundred seats held by Republicans
were marked doubtful. Something must
be done to divert the attention of the
public. Cuba ibre, Spains atrocities,
the starving reconcentrados, Weylers
brutality and our duty to spread the
sphere of freedom offered the readiest
opening to divert some people from
thinking about free silver and others
from thinking about the failure of the
Republicans to redeem promises, while
it would provide a refuge for the impo-
tent Dingley tariff act. So there was u
vigorous exposition of Cuban misery
brought to head by the destruction OF
the Maine. The diversion succeeded
admirably. But it brought some unan-
ticipated consequences. Mckinley had
paid one of Hannas debts by taking
into his cabinet as secretary Of war a
man whose whole training made him
instinct with governmental j0bbery
AS a prOtectionist, as a trust promoter,
he looked on government as q job,
and was never so false to the country
as when true to himself" With the be-
ginning Of hOstilities, with that of mon
ey spending and contract making by
the war department, there came stories
Of jobbery There were ugly rumors
of contracts with railways for trans
pOrtatiOn Of troops, In which AIger or
his business associates had interests;
of camps located where those interests
would be promoted; of purchases of
vessels at outrageous prices; of the
purchase Of arms and munitions at
prices that left room for liberal COM
missions; Of appointments made for
reasons other than their fitness. From
Santiago came charges Of Incompetence
and mismanagement in every depart
ment Of the service. Then came fevers
there and i'm the camps. And with 1t
all loud and increasing demand for
investigation.
For a time Alger and the president
maintained silence. At last, when at
tention was centered on the conditions
of the hospitals in this country, Alger
demanded, an investigation. The board
was formed and has been taking tes-
timony. The noticeable feature is the

dition Of the camps and the service OF

How "Em rI osymcnt Hunts Labor. :"

A number of section men Of the Pennsvlva-
MIA Railway company were engaged in ami

company's general office announcing a reduc-
ton Of wages from $1.15 to S1.03 day. The
men refused to accept the reduction and start
ed off to hunt employment. A couple of DAYS
later I met in Cleveland a workman in one
Of the great iron mills Of that citv whose
occupation was that of a wire drawer on
the night shift He was lamenting the reduc-
ton in the rate per hundredweight of wire
drawn, under which he could earn but ~
cents by nights work, instead of from s.. so
to So under the former rate. a reduction that
took effect last year-after the "restoration''-
and one that he accepted because employment
was not and is not yet hunting labor - The
foreigner does not pay the tax, cheapness is
not nastiness and employment is not hunting
labor, but the maker of platitudinous phrases
placidly pursues his fancies.
