If, after the surrender of CORVALLIS at York
town, France had made treaty with Eng
by which the latter granted the sovereignty of
the United States to France, would Washing
ton have submitted to it -? That France might
have promised to allow us all the sef-govern-
ment of which we were capable would have
made no difference The French flag to us
would not have been an emblem of liberty, but

THE official count of the ballots cast at the
election gave Dan Moore majority OF two
votes over c. Z. Glass, for sheriff. and ]. +.
Calvert majority of thirteen votes over Harry
Bolson for county clerk Thus, the result was
not changed. The. fusion forces have treasurer
and county commissioner, while the Republic
ans have the other county Offices. In reality,
it was big victory for the "oppo~iton," or
fusion, forces. The usual Republican MAORI
ties were not realized this year.

HANNA HARD HIT.

Notwithstanding the whoop and hurrah made
by the Republican papers of the nation, they
had very little to crow over in the late election.
Occasionally there is a Republican paper that
has enough honesty to admit the truth, or part
of it. For instance, in last Fridays Topeka
Capital appears an article on the result OF the
election, from which we quote, as follows
'Senator Hanna is the next prominent per-
son who has had personal interest in the re-
suit of the elections, and he has emerged with
his prestige considerably injured. 1t is true
that Ohio has gone Republican, but this is due
to the devotion of the Ohio people for McKin-
ley. Mr. Hanna can take no credit to himself
for the victory. Or the contrary, he is con-
fronted by an overwhelming overthrow i'll his
own county of Cuyahoga Jones, the candi-
date without party, has polled in that county
something like 10000 votes, or considerably
more than one half of the total ballots. While
the great bulk of the vote undoubtedly came
from workingmen, as Senator Hanna says, 1t is
also true that it represents personal protest
against Hanna and Hanna methods. All over
Ohio there is a strong feeling against Hanna
and Hanna methods. All over Ohio there is
strong feeling against Hanna, but in Cleveland,
his own home the hostility is so bitter that
Republican speakers were not allowed to pub
licly eulogize him during the campaign. The
antagonstic sentiment was not confined to what
is known as the 'hudum eement,' but was
shared by the best known and most influential
people IN the city. These people all voted for
Jones, not because they believed III Jones the
cries, but because his name afforded landing
place where they could rest without going into
the Democratic party.
Il,
been defeated in Cuyahoga demonstrates that
President Mckinley is not dependent upon him
for success. In fact, Mr.. Mckinley has been
victorious in spite of Mr.. Hanna. Mckinley
has carried the state, while Hanna has lost his
home county. These conditions may result in
change in the head of the Republican nation
al committee, unless, as Senator Hawley re-
marked to day, nobody cares about Cuyahoga
county, so long as the state is all right, If
this feeling should BIS universal, and if no one
should want to assume the very arduous and
trying duties of national choirman, Mr. Hanna
might continue in charge during the next cam
paign."
But the writer of the above article is wrong
when he says Mckinley carried the state, or
that the state went Republican. 1t is true that
he had plurality, but 1t is also true that he
lacked $4,000 of having majority. Mclean
and Jones were both anti administration candi-
dates. They, together received large MAJOR
ity of the votes at the election Mckinley had
something over 40 900 votes more than Nc
Lean, but Jones received over 100000 votes.
Any person with thmbleful Of brains will
readily see that a majority of the people of
Ohio do NOT endorse McKinley's policy, and
can also see that they are tired of Ham 'isin

REPUBLICANS circulated the report that May
or Jones, of Toledo, who ran for governor as
non partisan, said eff my race has i'll any
way contributed TO the success of John R. Nc
Lean and rebuke to the infamous policy of
the administration, feel that it has not been in
vain" Mr.. Jones issued signed statement
denying the report.

The Topeka State Journal (Rep.) has care
f,,,v canvassed the situation, and candidly adj
,nits that the Republican vote this year is light
er than it was in '98, and that the Republicans
carried fewer counties this year than last. The
Journal also finds that there are many changes
in Republican strong holds, while IN a few
orock. ribbed" fusion counties, Republicans
made gains.

Jim Hill has had q cooking car
built to 60 along with his threshing
crew that is the best we have seen in
that line. The cooking room is built
in the center of the car and the men
eat from both sides. A covered drive
way, so to speak, has been arranged
on the outside of the car with stalls
that will accommodate eighteen men
at one time. The food is served from
the inside of the cooking room, from
windows that are made to lift up at
meal times. The whole arrangement
of the car is good and it is fixed so
that the men can be served much
quicker than in the old way. The car
now stands by the old Whidden build
ing in town where those interested can
take a look at it.

The people are anxious for a
change. O, yes. But the
change they want is one that
will prevent the big monopolies
from getting so much, but not
at all interfere with the small
fellows doing business for a
"profit." No such a change is
possible. The big.fellows have
the same right to make all the
"profit" they can just as much
as the little fellows have to
make their "profit." They can
not conceive of a business be-
ing done unless ."protit' is
made, and until they can or un-
til they are firmly convinced
that they can never get a
chance to make "profits," will
they be willing to advocate the
public ownership of the means
of production and distribution.
All the woes of all the people
of all nations flow from the one
cause-private ownership of
what should be publicly owned.

Labor Measures.

There will be several labor measures
introduced at this session of the state
legislature by the Minnesota State Fed.
GRAFTON of Labor, and some others will
be introduced by individuals, but with
the Endorsement of the Federation and
a promise of support to secure their
passage. The Federation council has
already passed upon and indorsed three
bills: An electric motormen's license;
an eight.hour bill, and labor registra.
ton bill. Several other measures are
being prepared which will be of benefit
to the working classes of the state.
The council has decided not to ap:
point lobbyist for this session, but
that the council, or individual members
thereof, should attend to all legislation,
believing that better work could be &C.
complished with less expense in this
way than by having lobbyist continu-
ally at the state capitol.
Any union having a labor measure
which they wish to have presented to
the legislature should report the same
at once to Arthur w. Field, secretary

TOwNE IS HONoRED.

The minority vote of the
Minnesota state Legislature for
United States senator was cast
for Hon. Chas. A. Towne last
Tuesday. It is an honor wor-
'thily bestowed, and Senator
Baldwin voiced the sentiment
of the people of the Sixth dis
trict when he placed Mr.. Towne
in nomination in the following
eloquent languages: ~.
"Mr. President and Gentlemen of the
Senate: On behalf of the minority in
this senate, 1 rise to nominate for Unit
ed States senator for the state of Min
nesota man whose name is known
throughout the length and breadth of
the commonwealth; yes, throughout
this great country and beyond it's ex-
tensive borders; a man who has not
sought or expected this honor, but who
himself insists that the honor and dis
tinction which we would here and now
bestow upon him rightfully belongs to
another; man who has not been, in
public life for any benefit which he
might personally derive therefrom, but
holding principle above party, and be.
lieving that the party whose idol he was,
the party that he represented in 4the
halls of congress, had departed from
principles of justice and right, he left
that party aid all the honor and splen-
dor which it offered him, to champion
the cause of the people with whom he
has always been in close touch, and
whose condition and needs he has made
his constant study; brilliant scholar,
whose range of study and investigation
have been almost without limit; q
matchless orator, whose eloquence holds
spellbound the thousands who gather
whenever he speaks; a splendid states
man, whose fame, young as he is, has
spread from sea to sea. and who gives
promise of greater things with advanc-
ing years; a patriot whose love of coun-
try and flag is excelled by none such a
scholar. orator, statesman, patriot, Mr..
President, I nominate for United States
senator-the Hon. Charles A. Towne, of
st. Louis county" ...~-.
