Washington Letter .
(From Our Regular Correspondent
WASHINGTON, Jan. 6, 1899.

Neither President Mckinley
nor any member of the cabinet is
at all alarmed over the situation
in the Philippines, sensational
publications to the contrary not
w1thstapding. Everything recei-
we'd from Gen Otis indicates that
he has the situation we'll in hand.
The source of what trouble there
is in the Philippines is bad advice
given the insul gents by outsiders
who are interested in making the
Filipinos suspicious of our inten-
tions towards thom. It is the po-
licy of the administration to deal
kindly and leniently with Aguin-
aldo and his deluded followers, un-
less they make q resort to harsher
measures necessary. Our object
is to give the islands good govern
ment, peace and prosperity. "A
very different policy will b fol-
lowed towards the meddlers, if tho
responsibility for the meddling
can be officially placed. S
Having nothing else to growl
about, the opponents Of the adj
ministration are criticising Presi-5
dent Mckinley because he sent
the treaty Of peace to the senate
with only ashort message Of trans
initial. He did 80 purposely, be-
cause the treaty speaks for itself
and he prefers that It be ratified
on It's merits. The committee on

The republican legislative eau

One hundred and twenty six of
the 137 republicans members OF

had the other IL been there tho
same unanimous conclusion would
have been reached. Y There was
no thought of any other candi-
date. Every republican recog-
nized tho eminent fitness of Mr..
Davis for the place and tho en-
inent propriety Of re-electing him
under the circumstances.
The state of Minnesota derivel

The message of Gov. Lind has
proved disappointment to his
admirers.It was expected that he
would recommend some radical
legislation but on the contrary the
recommendations were very mild
and conservative. OF course
when an executive recommends
the probing after stocks, bonds,
etc., for taxable purposes he
strikes a popular chord among the
people, but this was referred to in
such All even tempered manner
that it does not indicate anything
but a grand stand play. As to
the investigation of the wheat in
spsction to use his own language
No new legislation is deemed nee
essary on this subject. The state
printing their own text books
looks very nice on paper, but it il
safe to say that no action in this
line will be taken during the pres
ent session.
The Worthington advance., 1899-01-12

The binding twine question has
been taken up by both branches
of the legislation and it il pro-
posed to appoint a county agent
who will receive a cent a pound
for his labor. This will make
another appointive Office to scram-
bio for. Various primary laws
are being proposed and some of
them arc only effective in coun-
ties with a large population. If a
new primary law is necessary in
these counties it is essential in
every county.
