republicans hedged and fooled
some people by the international

fol-de-rol. This year they have
cut loose from their old moorings
entirely. and as a test issue the
silver question is very much
alive. By mans attitude on
that issue one can determine
what his attitude is likely to be
on other questions where the in
terests of the people are involved.
We would call your attention to
the arraignment of the republi-
can party in the state in the peo-
pies party platform published
elsewhere in this issue. If you
have not as yet studied the same,
look it over now. Then when
you realize that Lind stands
pledged to assist in correcting
the abuses named you will prob
ably realize that he has enough
ground to stand upon. It is the
republican gang of politicians,
with Eustis at it's head, that has
not a word to say on state issues.

AN OLD LETTER.

Two weeks ago we reprinted
some extracts from the writings
of G. K. Davis in the good old
days when his republicanism was
the same article that is now
called populism. Ina letter pub
lished in the Blue Earth City
Post dated Aug 2, 1873, Mr.. Dav-
is gives his idea of cure for the
evils depicted in his lecture on
"Modern Feudalism." We re-
produce two paragraphs from
this letter, viz:
my own idea of the practical,
solution of this question is almost
as universal as was the idea of
emancipation. It is that the Fed
eral government should, under
the power of eminent domain.
condemn at least two through
lines from the seaboard to the
west, keep them in repair just as
the state keeps it's wagon roads
up, and suffer anyone who has
a LOGON olive or car to run over
them under such regulations
only as will insure safety.
Before this can be done there
will be a struggle to which that
regarding slavery in the territor-
les was mere baby play. It may
be that the railroad men will be
wiser than the slave holders
their prototypes-and when they
know what is coming will make
satisfactory concessions.
In those days Davis was a
good Lincolnian republican. He
has however now gone back on
his old principles and is now a
full-fedged member of the mod
ern gold-plated G. O. P. On Oct.
9Th, 1895, while serving (?) the
people of this state as United
States senator, G. K. Davis ap-
peared before the supreme court
in the pay of the railroad corpor-
ations and argued that there was
nothing in the laws or constitu-
tion which could prevent the
Great Northern and Northern
Pacific roads from being consoli-
dated, thus creating the most 81:
gantic railroad monopoly the
world had ever seen. In the
course of his remarks he Uttered
the following:
''No matter how onerous the
conditions Of this charter may
be it could not be affected by
subsequent antimonopoly consti-
tutional provision "
Nothing more is necessary to
show how this splendidly
equipped man has turned traitor
to the people who honored him.
In his own words. uttered: in
1870, he described his present
attitude as it appears to the peo-
pie of his state at this time;
"Great lawyers dedicate their
exquisite tact in making appar-
entity legitimate this unholy com
merce between justice and the
corporations.'

THE SWEDE-HATERS.

"Victor E. Lawson Larson) is a fu-
sionist. He is a nice, young man pos
sessed of all the innate diplomacy of
his race, the Swedes. He will worm
his way through life and tell the truth
only when he knows that it serves his
purpose better than would lie.''
A few weeks ago we repro
duced the personal attack upon
the editor of this paper that ap
peared first in the Fergus Globe,
from which the above is an ex-
tract. We were unable to under
stand the motive of the unpro-
voked and lying attack. .. Now
the same screed is published in
Fosters Eagles Eye and Donnel-
ly's Representative, both papers
which are trying to defeat John
Lind for governor. Now what
object can these fellows have in
trying to damage our character?
There must be some deeper mo-
tive under this attack. Behind
the accusation against US there
is a poorly disguised slur at our
nationality. That our father saw
fit to change letter in his name
when he arrived at Rock Island
from the old country in the tif-
ties in order that people might
identify him among the hundreds
of Larsons in that city is no dis
honor. We are proud of the fact
that our parents were Swedes.
AS a nationality the Swedes CON-
pare favorably with any other.
Communities where they pre-
dominate are noted for the indus
try, thrift, intelligence and integ-
rity of their inhabitants.
The Swedes are inclined to be
a little too much peace-loving for
their own good, however. Too
often they allow themselves to be
imposed upon. ParticularIyis this
true in the political field. Let an
able and bright Swedish-Ameri.
can be named for an office in the
state and Immediately the cry
is raised that he was. nominated
solely because of his nationality
and to catch the Swedish vote.
Why is not a capable man of Swe-
dish extraction eligible for office
on his own merits independentof
his nationality? "Oh! no." say
these Swede.haters, 1.-The Swedes
are voting cattle-tit only to fol-
low; never to lead. We will throw
them a little sop once in a while
as we have done in the past, and
we'll manage the machine while
they do the voting. = The time
ought to be past when the good
old longsuffering people will take
such insults as that: AS consti-
tuting 9 large proportion Of the
opulation they have their rights
and are entitled at least to the
respect Of the people who seek
their votes. This year, if the

on Guantanamo, via Kingston. ia
maca, June 2l.-Cuban scouts report
today that the inhabitants OF Cailna-
nera have strewn the streets with straw
and oil, with the intention Of destroy
ing the city and fleeing to the hills.
Camanera lies four miles ny the bay
from Camp McCalla, under the guns
Of the American ships, and the situa-
ton is desperate, Starving and fam
ine-stricken, convinced Of the ultimate
triumph of the American arms, and
without faith in the Spanish soldiery.
the people are believed to have deter
mined to leave their houses in ashes be-
hind them and seek safety in the hills
Of the north. The scouts declare that
the story is accurate, and say that
every building Of the town is being
rapidly prepared for the torch.
The situation Of the bcseiged is fear
ful. The people are eating horses and
mules and are securing the hills for
fruits and herbs. Occasionally brief
bombardments by the American fleet
leave the helpless citizens terror
stricken, no preparations for defense boz
ing made. 1t is also stated that the
Spanish gunboat at Caimanera has been
loaded with inhammables, and will be
burned with the city, her commander
declaring that she will never become
an American prize.
The scouts say the Spanish soldiers
are in almost as complete a state Of
panic as are the civilians, and that
they could easily be induced to sur
render. Some of the prisoners taken
by the marines say they believe the
Spanish troops are on the verge Of sur
render, on account Of the lack Of food.
Captain McCalla, of the cruiser
Marblehead, and Lieutenant Colonel
Huntington. in command of the ma.
rines, are not SO sure, however, Of the
reported Spanish rout. They received
information yesterday that a general
attack by a force Of $500 Spanish SOL
1iers and guerillas on. Camp McCalla
is contemplated within night or two.
Preparation was made for an assault.
