Willmar tribune., 1898-10-05

The people who are trying to re-
deem the state from the corrupt ring
rule are charged by the republican
press as making false complaints in
order to get into Office. Some of the
boys have more lucid intervals, how
ever, and in one Of them Bro. Whar-
ton of the Argus gives one reason why
his party will suffer, viz:
"Another thing the republicans are
going to suffer for if it is not remedied
and that at once, is the inspection of
wheat that is going on in this slip
shod and unfair way. Time and tine
again have the present inspector and
his deputies shown their Incompetent
cy by having grades raised after a yig-
orous kick. Duluth is gaining by the
poor inspection in Minneapolis, for
many of the western men are shipping
to Duluth where they claim to get
better satisfaction. We hope to see
the farmers get simple justice cut o1
their appeals and get it right away.
True, the cry has been raised, before
by the opposition for politic,.l capital
but there is more than political cap
tai in it this time. The cry for better
inspection is SO general that it must
be respected and we hope it, will he.'

THE GREAT DESERT.

9bwer of the Winds on That Barren Waste
of Sands.
With a feeling that my words will
carry little weight with those who
think otherwise, venture to suggest
that the Sahara is not exactly what it
is commonly assumed to be, and yet in
many ways it is not very different Its
first sands, when approached from the
side OF El-Kantara, are giant rocks,
burned brown and red under the glow
Df the southern sun, standing out in
wild pinnacles from the gently undu-
lating surface. This is not the desert
that is ordinarily pictured by the mind
that fiat, endless expanse which fades
off unmoved and unbroken to the limits
Of vision-but it is the desert, neverthe-
less, just as much as the mountain
SHOWS of the far north are part of the
great arctic '*sea Of ice." Beyond, how
ever, is the great plain itself, it's swell
ing undulations hardly relieving to the
eye the appearance of absolute f1atness
which the picture offers.
The truth is, the Sahara presents
itself in a double aspect, that of the fat
and sandy plain and that of the rocky
ridge or mountain, the Hammada. It is
the Hammada that is more particularly
dreaded by the caravans, for among
their wind swept crags there are few
oases, and only the blowing sands and
relentless sun are the companions of
the footsore pilgrim. In many parts of
the fat desert travelling is moderately
easy, for over long distances the surface
has become coated into hard, Shiny
crust-a solid basement rock. one may
call it. Along our route of travel there
were no sand dunes of any magnitude,
the highest perhaps scarcely exceed.
ing Is Or 30 feet, but I was informed by
the distinguished French explorer, M.
Foureaud, who was then stopping al
Biskra, that beyond Tuggurt they rise
to the prodigious height of from l, zoe
to l, 400 feet. This speaks even more
eloquently for the power of the winds
than do tile high tossed sands of cora
islands.--Popular Science Monthly.

MORE DANGEROUS TO THE COUN-
TRY THAN ANARCHY.

We have no sympathy with the an
archist, and it is difficult to conceive
of a more dangerous type of citizen.
But the Hon. Wayne McVeagh, of
Pennsylvania, in his address at the
commencement exercises of the Uni
versity Of Pennsylvania, in June last
said to the students Of that institution,
"The black flag Of the political COR
ruptlonist is more to be feared than
the red flag of the anarchist" We
hope the masses Of loyal American
citizens will heed the warning coucht
in these weighty words. The political
corruptionist seductively saps the
found alton Of our free institutions by
the use Of bribes and resort to
other dishonest methods. The bribe
taker is character to be loathed;
but the bribe-giver is public enemy
to be execrated, who richly merits the
traitors rope. Friends of liberty,
keep sharp eye out for the political
corruptionist.-The Religious Tele-
scope. =: -
Very true, the person that offers or
accepts an Office on the condition of a
"change of opinion'':. is as much a
bribe-g giver OR bribe-taker as he who
offers or accepts the ready cash On
like conditions It made the blood in
the editors veins tingIe the other day
to hear an old political corruptionist
telling young man that it did not
pay to try to reform politics and that
a young man should make it his busi-
ness to join a party that could bestow
Offices and emoluments upon its memb-
ers. How may we expect pure politics
as long as such political doctrine is
preached to Our boys. Young man,
think for yourself, do what your best
Judgment and your conscience die
tate, and let the future take care of it,
self. You will become better and
nobler citizen by so doing.

John Steele with the liberal use of

HIS EXCUSE.

It may interest our readers to learn
how the friends of Eustis attempt to
meet the Guaranty Loan charges. The
following is from the Minneapolis
Times, and we leave for our readers to
Judge whether it is denial which de-
MES or not:
''The Standard refers to Mr. Eustis'
alleged connection with ''the Guaranty
Loan swindle.' But the Standard
has evidently made no effort to as
certain the facts. Mr.. Eustis never
held dollar of Guaranty Loan stock;
he was never a legal director. He
served for while upon the directory
at the request of a number Of promi-
nent citizens, but always under pro-
test, and repeatedly requested the
withdrawal of his name from any con-
nection with it-not because he doubted
the entire solvency of the concern, be-
cause no one did that-but because he
did not believe that he had the legal
right to serve:in the capacity Of di-
rector He never made a penny out
of his connection with the company,
aud his contemporary connection with
it was simply in, good natured com
pliance with the requests of prominent
business men who were his personal
friends aud holders Of Guaranty Loan
stock. ~ ~..''5 .t - ..'. TX
Snow, these are the plain facts con-
corning Mr.. Eustis' Z connection with
that concern. Perhaps he should
have resisted the opportunities of his
friends. and refused to permit the use
of his name. But it must be rememb-
cred that not the slightest suspicion
Of the perfect solvency and integrity
of the company and it's mana cement
existed at that time. What there is
in all this to furnish campaign mater
ial for his opponents, it is difficult to
see. Nothing but the blindest and
most ignoble parts anship can find
anything il Mr.. Eustis relation with
the Guaranty Loan company to lessen
the respect and comic dence IA which he
has always been held by solf-.respect.

THE OPPORTUNITY.
V. E. Lawson, Secretary.

There is no Disgusting the fact that
the republican forces of the county are
demoralized by internal dissension.
The mainstays of the party, who have
in their different localities borne the
brunt of the political battles in the
past and who have stood by their guns
in thick and thin, are beginning to
realize that the crowd of Office holders
which they have helped to places and
whom have been fattening at the pub
lie crib year after year, has become
SO arrogant as to assume to absolute
ly dictate who may aspire for public
honor and who may not. With this
gang principles count for nought; in
trigue, schemes, plots and trades count
for everything. They give political
-renegades their preference. Those who
made honest efforts to secure nomina-
tions stand aghast at the vile treach-
cry practiced. Their friends swear
vengeance to- the traitors, and who
can blame them? #.> .:. r. IL. III. y
The Peoples convention which con-
venes next Friday has vast possibili-
ties before itseli. Will it be equal to
the occasion? Will it place before the
people a ticket which will inspire and
merit the confidence Of all fairminded
citizens? Will it grasp the opportun-
y? Even now the schemers are at
work to manipulate the Peoples con.
vention if possible. Let every citizen
be Wide- awake and do his duty and
glorious victory vii crown the
efforts g manh bod and hon Or.
