The democratic congress
sional committee has issued
an address on Judge Morris
claims that he deserves credit
for the improvements in the

aware that the people there
knew his claims were false

that the speakers of the party

that all the republican speak

Marshall Leader: There
are four candidates on the
state ticket of the allied forces
who have an army record.
First is John Lind, who has
just closed an honorable re-
cord with the close of the war.
N ext is Major J. M. Bowler,
a member of the gallant old
First Minnesota, whose thin
ranks are a matter of the
most glorious history of the
rebellion. Next is George N.
Lamphere, who had a wound
ed arm amputated in a rebel
prison in 1864. Next is Judge
John F. Kelly, an Irish patriot
of Maryland in the rebellion,
an d one of the ablest jurist in
this state. He has assisted in
the compilations of the stat
utes of Minnesota, Tennessee,
Kansas, Wisconsin, and Ohio.
With such a ticket, even our
republican friends need not
fear for the American flag, or
that the affairs of the state
would not be in safe hands.
AS compared. with William
Henry Eustis, their records
stand out IN brilliant cantrast.

rankles deep in the hearts

horses who kept the repub1i-

were scarcely any others OF
the party in the county, years
before Fuller appeared on the
scene, are rejected because
they would not allow Fuller

IS ind the etionzof the
high tarif On lumber, the
white pine interests are or '
ganizing a trust. The Min
neapo1is Journal, one Of the
leading repub lican papers Of
the state, says: s he plan, if
carried through, would place
the absolute control Of the en-
tire white pine output Of the
country in the hands Of a
single corporation, which
could absolutely dictate
prices. Every retailer of
white pine in the United
States would have to do bus
mess with this company; It
is estimated that the consol-
ldation would reducethe force
of travelling statesmen by two
thirds. There are thirty or
forty lumber statesmen travel
ing out of Minneapolis. If
the scheme is realized in it's
entirety it means the e1imin-
alton of the lumber broker
and all varieties of lumber
middlemen. The retailer
will do business with the
manufacturer - This would
be hardly a pleasant thing for
the employees, but it is a prac.
tical illustration of protection
as a trust breeder.

These Bottles were of white glass
and each one contained an inscription.
The finder of any of these bottles will
confer favor by sending word to
the Interior Office stating as nearly as
possible the exact locality where
found.
