w. The Union hopes too see the Re
publicans of Anoka county support the
Hon. A. N. Dare of Elk River, for SEN
ator from the forty-ffth district at the
coming legislative convention. Mr.
Dare has proven a loyal and staunch
friend of Anoka and her interests and
it would be fitting to give him the
vote of this county at the convention.
He is an able legislator, a conscien-
tious worker and would take an en-
viable position in the upper house.
He is peculiarly fitted for the position
and would command the warm support
of the U'1ion.-AnokG Union. -
Of course, Mr.. Dare will have the
support of his home county, Sher-
burne, and Anoka and Sherburne can
nominate him. But there is no rea-
son why Mr.. Dare should not also have
the support of Mile Laos county in the
convention. So far as we know Mile
Laos county has no candidate for sena-
tor. His record in the last legislature,
and in the legislature of 1895, entities
Mr.. Dare to the senatarship. He
should be the unanimous choice of the
Republicans Of the district

90 By ; rs asking formal permission Of the
United States consul at one of it's ports
to send a neutral vessel into the harbor
of Manila, the Russian government
has certainly admitted that it regards
this government as having actually
taken possession of the PHILIPPINES,
and when Russia makes such an ad-
mission it is about time for the other
European countries to fall in and ad-
just themselves to the inevitable.

ZIMMERMAN, the Minneapolis police
man who barbecued an unofending
stranger who committed the grievous
otfense of being hungry and trying to-
sell piece of jewelry to get some
thing to eat, has been acquitted by a
jury on the theory that the shooting
was accidental. It is fortunate that
the Minneapolis juries did not think of
this defense for its defaulting officers
and boodling aldermen. Itwould have.
been much simpler, and just as salts

neapolis policemen should be armed

mitted to use only blank cartridges.

Make IT UNA NIMOUS,

= We see in several of our district pa
pers, the hope expressed that A. N.
Dare of Elk River may consent to be
our senatorial candidate. If he should
decide to do so he may be sure of the
cordial support of Anoka county. We
know our friends, and know that Mr..
Dare can always be depended upon. to
be at least as good as his. word, while
his ability is unquestioned. i We hope
that Mr.. Dare will be unanimously
nominated at the legislative conven-

THE Minneapolis Times insinuates

The Minneapolis Times insinuates
that the UNION is not sincere in its
advocacy of Judge Collins for gov
ernor, because it has said that it would
be a joke on the Times if it's crusade
against Van SAINT should end in the
nomination Of Clough instead of Van.
If the Times merely means that the
UNION would rather see Clough nom
mated than Van SAINT it needn't guess
again. If it means more than that it
may keep on guessing, and~be as far as
ever from the truth.

A MISSOURI murderer applied for a
change OF venue on the ground that
the newspapers had so prejudiced the
public against him that he could not
get an impartial jury in the county
where the offense was committed. The
motion was denied, the judge holding
that the newspapers do not voluntarily
misrepresent such cases. Even a Mis-
souri, judge occasionally hits the bulls
eye in a happy way.

+ FINANCIALLY Spain is in the last
ditch. Her paper is at such discount
that even the decree making tia crime
to refuse paper money has not had the
desired effect, and the issue of a bullion
pesetas of paper money will be of no
avail, as the money will not be good
outside of Spain, and it is from the
outside that she must go for the nee
essary articles to prosecute war.
Meanwhile American as are quoted at

thing else, tells the story of the rela-
tive strength of the two countries. i"

SOME OF the "knowing'' editors and
politicians profess to believe that
Judge Collins will have no following
in the Republican State convention.
If the Sixth congressional district
stands by Collins not for one butfo1.a
dozen ballots if necessary-his chances
for receiving the nomination for gov
ernor are equally as good as those of
any candidate mentioned.

THERE is now very little probab ility
that the present war will witness
another really great naval engage
ment. The only squadron of the Span
ish navy that is capable of effective
work is. bottled up in the .harbor of
Santiago de Cuba, with three Ameri-
can battle ships and a number of heavy
cruisers guarding the entrance. The
harbor is so situated that only one YES
sci at time can emerge, even if the
collier that is sunk in the entrance can
be removed to admfc'of the passage of
one of the heavy Spanish vessels.
The Americans have plenty of ships
for all general purposes, leaving out
those now guarding the Spanish pris-
oners in the plugged-up harbor. It
only remains to land sufficient body of
troops to capture the Notifications to
the inland side of the harbor, when
Cervera must capitulate or be demol-
ished. This will relieve the heavy
vessels of the American feet, when a
movement on Havana and Porto Rico
can be effectively made and the war
brought to a speedy termination. Of
course it will take some time to bring
all the negotiations TO a close, but the
indications are that, so far as &C
tive fighting is concerned, it will all be
over within sixty days.

HoBsoN, the hero of Santiago har-
Dor, should make the most of his fame,
for at the rate history is being made
he is liable to be crowded to the side
of the stage at any time. Only few
weeks ago Fitshugh Lee was the hero
of the hour. Then it was Dewey; then
Bagley; now it is Hobson. Next week,
for all we know, it may be somebody
else, The woods seem to be full of
heroes.

OF the four conspicuous heroes of
the war-Lee, Dewey, Hobson and
Bagley--one is from the north and
three from the south. Dewey is from
New England, Lee from Virginia

let the late Johnny Rebs7 get ahead

The three prominent candidates still
maintain about the same relative posi-

Judge Collins is not making an active
fight ' for the nomination and what is
done done must be done voluntarily BY his
friends. The fact that he is a clean
and able man is everywhere acknowl-
edged, and there never was a better
chance for the party to pick up a good

It will be noticed that while our

them have given any reason for com
ing to this conclusion-if conclusion it
is. Not one Of them can show where

and none can show where he has sup
ported measure which would prove a
detriment to his district. Calling a

to him as ''our lightweight congress
