Not too late vet,

AS hostilities around Manila draw to
a close the way of the imperialist grows
harder. Since the natives of the islands
have thought proper to engage them
selves in an armed conflict with the Uni
ted States soldiery, whether through
their own temerity or through the blum
ders or settled purpose of those who are
in charge of our affairs, the feeling exists
quite generally that the Filipinos should
be compelled to lay down their arms.
The imperialists have been banking too
freely on this feeling among the people.
When peace has been declared, the cry
of the American people against the mil
itarism which seeks colonial possessions
in the Orient will find even more en-
phatic expression than it has from the
outset.
The meeting held in Chicago and the
universal protest which has gone out
from the American citizens of German
birth and blood, clearly show what the
American people think OF their rulers at
Washington, and of the policy Of exploit
tation which they are engaged in both
in the Philippines and in Cuba.
The little scheme of which Robert B.
Porter IS evidently an advance agent, to
secure the annexation of Cuba, will have
as disastrous an ending as that which is
now certain to befall the speculative and
adventurous courses of the imperialists
over in the China seas.
1t is not too late even yet to recede,
The young men who have been doing
the fighting are about to return home.
The public sentiment which will decide
the next presidential election will be
formulated between now and year
hence. The remaining hope for the i'm
perialists is that they will prove to have
a strong enough pull in Michigan to
send Alger to the senate, and have that
Philippine commission hurry up and
formulate its plan of self-government

The main cause of the Yanko- Spanko
war was the "Maine' and the Spaniards
have been punished for their perfidy.
A war in the name of humanity is an
outgrowth of the corrupt mind of our
administration headed by that sancti-
monious arch priest of trusts and cp-
preston VIM. Mckinley. Sanctimony
is one of the most prominent virtues in
our present administration but it is not
relished by the masses of the people.
New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1899-05-17

The attempt to muzzle the press, of
course only the opposition press, plainly
demonstrates that the administration
will not hesitate to use any measures, no
matter how contemplate and unlawful,
to further the aims of the imperialists
expansionists, trusts, etc., that is the re-
publican party. The pamphlet by At
kinson which was to he sent to the Phil
lppines was retained by the government
authorities on the grounds that it mil ht
lead the soldiers in the far away ORIENT
to sedition and rioting. If the soldiers
were really so patriotic and anxious to
slaughter a lot of semi-savages, the
pamphlet could not possibly have done
any damage among them, why then this
measure to suppress it. 1t is very doubt
full whether the order of the post office
department shutting the pamphlets of
the anti-imperialistic league out of the
U. S. mails, by not permitting them to
be sent TO the Philippines, would be
held valid if tested in the courts.

JOHN BULL has killed the alliance pro-
ject, if he has, as is alleged, entered into
an agreement with Russia that will Grip
pie, if it does not wipe out, American
trade with China. Such procedure is
of the thorough John Bull stamp, it's
"English you know" but no voice is to
be heard condemuing this treachery. This
treatment on the part of England is a
just reward for our government whose
main object it seemed to be to submit to
John Bulls impudence. Well, we have

Our milling industry is necessitated BY
the rich farming country, our breweries
are necessitated by the healthy dry eli
mate for which Minnesota is famous, and
as smoke consumers are recommended
by the health authorities in large cities,

but climatic and local conditions should
not be the only cause for the establish
ment of Industries, there are others. Let

policy begin at home by expanding the

The regular arrival of an Armour re-
frigeratlng car from which meat is being
supplied to Albert Lea butcher shops,
and the possible permanent closing Of
the Brandin packing house signalizes
the beginning of the end of competition
in prices for meats in the shops and OF
the monopoly which the big packing
houses are rapidly extending throughout
the entire country. It means in the end
the driving out of business of every
butcher, of every meat shop that refuses
to buy Armour or the packers trust
meat, the end of the business of cattle,
hog and sheep buying except for the big
packers. And this is not all. The pric-
es of the packers meat will be put up
and consumers of meat will be forced to
pay trust prices or go without.
Besides this, all cattle, hogs and sheep
being shipped to Chicago instead of be-
ing slaughtered where the meat is want
ed, the raisers of stock will receive less
for it and the consumer of meats will
pay more because each class will have
contributed to the cost of railroad freight

THE Arkansas antitrust law is the
most drastic ever adopted by state, but
the Texas Legislature purposes enacting
one that is even more so. If the nation

clear that the States must, if anything is
to be saved from their clutches.

Last week Mr.. O. W. Hagen Of the
State Bank at his own expense secured
and planted three or four bushes of pond
lily roots in Sleepy Eye Lake. Mr.. Ha-

pond lily would succeed here and he
takes this practical plan OF demonstrate
Ing the proposition. The lily roots were
purchased at Lake Crystal and after be-

then dropped over board onto the mud

who assisted in planting the lilies forgot
where he was and IN attempting to walk
on the water took an impromptu bath,
When he was hauled back into the boat
he remarked that the mud bottom was
in splendid condition for planting. With
this assurance and good roots MIR. Hagen
feels that his experiment will prove a

In the United States court yesterday before Judge Townsend the suit brought by the Yale & Towne company of Stam- ford against Sargent & Co, of this city for alleged infringement of patents on a lock went to trial. The case is of much importance to lock manufactur- CTS of the country and will be vigor- ously contested by both sides.
 Attorneys Wetmore and Jenner for the complainant, claim that the patents oA the lock in question were secured by Warren H. Taylor of Stamford Novem- Der 15, 1887, and that they were assigned to Yale & Towne immediately.
 The lock is what is known as the Vale" and is said to be one of the original.

 The supreme court of errors began the third week of the June term at the supreme court room in this city at lO o'clock yesterday morning. Of the thir- ty-one cases on the docket twenty six will be heard before the week is over and five will be continued until the Oc- tober term. The docket was the largest in the history of the court,
 The case argued yesterday morning was that of August Tessmer adminis- trator for Pauline Tessmer against the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad company. The railroad com- pany appeals from a judgment against 1t of $1,500 Pauline Tessn1er, the plain tiff's daughter, was killed at the Ward street crossing in Wallingford,, June 16, 1898, Judge Prentice, who tried the case in the superior court found as a fact that the railroad company was negli- gent because it ran its train, south bound express, at the rate of fifty miles an hour while approaching the crossing from a whistling post eighty rods dis tant, without constantly sounding it's engine whistle as warning He found dS uI duulllOIld1 ldCI lldl lIG ueCedS6u was not guilty of contributory negli- gence.
 Lawyers Harry G. Day and Benjamin I. Spock argued the case for the rail- road. Lawyers c. s. Hamilton and o. H. D. Fowler argued for Tessmer.
 A settlement of the differences which have held the Consolidated Railroad company and Wheeler & Howes of Bridgeport apart, has been rendered possible by the appointment of apprais- CTS of the value of the property who are agreeable to both parties in inter- est. In the event of a satisfactory award Wheeler & Howes will probably withdraw their appeal to the supreme court, which is based on the ground that the agreement between the city and the railroad company for the elimi- :, nation of grade crossings in Bridgeport Is unconstitutional
