The universal disposition of men to
''let we'll enough alone,' will be felt
in the campaign of 1900. The univer-
sal tendency in trade and business is
upward and expansive, and no one can
doubt that this condition is due to the
policies placed in operation by the
present administration, and those who
are enjoying the benefits of returned
prosperity will hesitate to reverse the
order by reversing the verdict Of 1896.

Gov. SAVERS, of Texas, has called a.
convention Of governors: to: deal with
the question of trusts. It will require
no seer to predict the result of con-
vention of that kind, the Democratic
governors will declare that the Demo-
cratic party is going to abolish the
trusts, and the Republicans that the
Republican party will do it. Mean
while the trusts will get along pretty
comfortably if they have nothing more
serious to contend with than this con-
vention of governors. : /

LEGISLATURES and political parties
are always more or less disposed to
cater to "organized" labor, forgetful
of the fact that the labor Unions repre-
sent, perhaps, less than one-fourth of
the actual labor of the country. Farm
hands, common laborers of every de-
scription and most of the men who
work with their hands are not con-
nected with labor unions, and are too

the organized bodies which are repre-

IT is enough to make a ghost laugh
to- hear the Minneapolis papers talk
about treachery to Eustis, when, as a
matter of fact, there were districts in
Minneapolis where Eustis did not get
as many votes at the polls as he did at
the primaries. If there was any
treachery to Eustis, Eustis need not go
outside of his own city to find the
authors of it.

PROPOSES TO BE HONEST.

The orders received by Indian Agent
Mercer, to remove all white persons
from the Chippewa Indian reservation
within thirty days, would seem to in
dictate that the government, at l. very
late day, proposes to be honest with
the red man. AS the rain falls upon
the just and the unjust without dis
elimination, so, if the white man is
driven from the Chippewa reservation
honest men will suffer for the doings of
timber depredations, rum dispensers
and hoggish fishermen. If the white
man has no business on the reservation
to-day, he had none yesterday-Duzalth

TEN NEW CARDINALS.
News From Rome of Coming Ecclesi-

New York, June Elm private letter
just received in this city from a New
York Roman Catholic priest now in
Rome. the writer thus speaks of the
present condition of the pope: Il was
fortunate enough the other day to have
an audience with the holy father. Like
all others who have seen the pope late
ly, 1 could not fail to remark his pallor
and the alertness of his mind. He is a
man with great reserve fund of will
power, and no one at present talks
much about the next pope"
OF the prospective selection of Car
dinals the writer says: 1.-THE death of
Cardinal Krementz has brought the
number of vacancies in the sacred col
lege to sixteen, and it is asserted that
about ten new cardinals will be created
in the next consistory. Mgr. Richeling,
archbishop of Turin; Mgr. Francica
Nava, archbishop of Cantania at Ma
drid, and Father Joseph Calasantius da
Llevaneras, of the Capuchin Fathers
have already received notice officially
from the vatican of their approaching
elevation to the rank of cardinal
Father CalaSantius, who will be known
Cardinal Joseph Wives, is consultor
of the ecclesiastical congregation of the
holy office, and is apostolic examiner for
clergy of Rome and definite general of
his order. He is only As years old, and
will be the youngest cardinal.

c. K. Leinbach, who came from Par
sons today, said to a Journal reporter:
THE talk about Doodle is nonsense.
I am we'll acquainted with the prelim-
inarieS concerning the location OF the
asylum at Parsons and I am sure no
man was authorized to offer Major An
derson money. He himself says he was
pledged to vote for Clay Center, conse-
quently there was no use for to work
on him. And another reason, we had
no money to spend that way Parsons
has secured the asylum; sold the state
a first class location, the best, in my
opinion, that could be obtained and this
was all done in legitimate manner.
There was no crookedneSs and If the
matter gets into the courts for an in
vestigation the truth of what 1 say will
be clearly proven"
MONEY FOR EVERYBODY.
Another chapter was added to the
Doodle stories this afternoon when one
of Senator dwellings most intimate
friends said to a Journal reporter:
Mr.. Lewelling was offered money to
vote for Parsons
How much?" was asked.
Il can not answer that question, be-
cause am not at liberty to do so,'' was
the reply
The man who made this statement
knows Mr.. Lewelling intimately and re-
Gently had a long talk with the ex-
governor about the Doodle stories. In
the course of that conversation Mr..
Lewelling made the statement that he
had been offered money.
This afternoon this gentleman said:
1.-THE governor is saying nothing about
this offer now but if the case gets into
court he will tell all about it. He has
the name of the man, the hour at which
the offer was made and all necessary
information to prove what he will offer
as evidence"
1t is said that Frank Reeder was also
offered money to abandon Clay Center
but he declines to say word upon the
subject and is preserving silence upon
every point.

In connection with the scandal grow
ing out of the asylum location Major
Anderson, upon being asked by a State
Journal representative, if he had been

that the offer was at least So, 600 and

Mayor c. Rockhold, DR.. G. w. Gabriel
ana c. H. Leinbach arrived from Par
sons today bringing the abstracts for
the land which the state is to purchase
and the contracts into which the city
of Parsons has entered with the state.
The most important of these is that the
city agrees to furnish the new asylum
with water at the rate of cents per
1000 gallons. The other is to furnish
the institution with natural gas at
cents per thousand. The city also
makes a contract to provide sewerage
for the buildings which will be con-

abstract and deeds and the Parsons

DICKER WITH SPAIN
Is Explained to the Reichstag by Won
BuIow-

Berlin, June 6.-The minister of for
eign affairs, Baron Won BuIow, in the
reichstag today made a statement on
the subject of the German Spanish
treaty for the cessions of the Carolina,
Ladrone and Pelew islands. He said
that in order to round off the German
possessions in the Pacific and in view
of German commercial interests which
had long existed in the Caroline islands
1--WE considered it our duty to take care
of this group so that in the event of
ownership it should not be lost to Ger
many"
The minister then read the text of
the agreement which was concluded
February u, 1899:
First-Spain cedes the Carolines. Pc
LEWIS and Ladrone islands except the is
land of Guam, in consideration of a
compensation of 25,000,000 pesetas.
Second-Germany comedies the Span
ish trade and agricultural enterprises
in those islands the same treatment
and facilities as conceded to German
trade and comedies to the Spanish re-
ligious orders in the islands the same
rights and liberties as the German or

Third-SDain will establish naval,
mercantile and coaling station in the
Carolines, Pelew and the Ladrones
and will be allowed to retain them in
case of war.

of the two countries and is to be rati-

Continuing, Baron Won Bulow said:
''An understanding has also been ar
rived at with Spain regarding the mu-
tual granting of conventional tariffs,
such as correspond with the wishes and
interests of Germany as we'll as Span
ish trade. So soon as the cortes sane
ton the sale of the islands we will i'm
mediately submit the necessary bills
to the reichstag which will have the
opportunity of a thorough and practi-
cal examination of the matter. Until
then we hope the reichstag will defer
