cRossv'S ELEVATOR AGENT.

The Willmar Gazette quotes the
Clara City Herald and the Herald in
return quotes the Gazette 70 prove
that the grain inspection is hopelessly
deranged. The Gazette claims that
the elevator men of Willmar have
changed their minds since they we're
interviewed by the TRIBUNE. We in
|terviewed them all and they were EN-.
phatic in their approval Of the inspec.
tion, the week aher the Elevator
agents" fake article appeared in the
Gazette. II anyone of them has been
constrained to change his mind since
that time, we cannot see that it proves
that he wrote the heart-reiding COM
plant We believe that we are justi-
fed in denouncing the alleged COM
plant as fake written for political
effect, because the writer was ashamed
to Sign his name. It is signidcanttha
the secret of the authorship has been
kept so we'll that even Henry Feig does
not know the identity of the writer.
The Clara City Herald says that a
great many others are complaining
besides this mysterious agent. Per-
haps that is so, but we notice that
every republican paper in the state
when denouncing the inspection in
variably quote that Gazette fake. If
complaints were general it strikes US
as strange that an anonymous COM
plant must needs be made the basis
for a state campaign. The tribune
has it's main constituency among the
farmers, and is as jealous as anyone of
their interests and If anyone of them
has not received fair treatment at the
hands of any public oftlcial-no mat
ter what his politics are-it stands
ready to publish his case in order that
justice may be done. But it will not
countenance anything that upon the
face of it looks like an attempt of the
elevator companies to regain control
of the grain department.

are running. Among other things he
says: 1.-THE authorities should GER

that there is a change for the better,

would be not to give them any stand

WILL CHANCE THEIR TUNE.

The republican papers have often
accused the populist and democratic
papers of the state of going too far in
their criticisms Of the public acts OF
republican officials in the past. But
when was there anything like the pres
ent torrent of abuse directed against
Gov. Lind by the republican press,
from the big dailies down to the small
est backwoods sheet. If this criticism
was confined to official acts which in
any way have any bearing upon the
government of the state it might be
excused; but as it is, everything he
does, be it of q public or private nat
ure, Is misconstrued and strained into
an unfavorable light. And yet there
are but very few persons in the state
that do not know that Gov. Lind is
putting up q clean and strong admin
istration; that he is in close touch
with the common people of the state,
and is fighting their battles against
organized greed and corruption in the
face of the greatest kind of odds.
Standing entirely alone he has accom-
plished much in the way Of reform,
thanks to his splendid ability, his un-
impeachable honesty, and indomitable
will power. A year ago the republic.
an press we're agreed that Gov. Lind
could accomplish nothing, as; he had
q hostile legislature to contend with,
and all the other state officials were
republicans; but now they are running
for cover, and are even trying to un.
load the mistakess of the legislature
and the republican boards onto the
governor. These things all of the
reading public know, and no amount
of blank-fire noise will fool them.
When Gov. Lind presents his case q,
the close Of his term, showing the con-
dition Of affairs as he found them and
how he leaves them, no amount o
tommy-rot and abuse will avail tc
hide the issue. 1t will be as clear al
sunlight. We have had some inkline
Of what the governor has had to con-
tend with and what he has found,
When the time comes for q choice tc
be made again there will not he tbs
slightest chance. for the honest and
fair voter to make q mistake. He will
then KNOW what he heretofore has
only been able to sURAnsE. He will
have to choose between, going forward
or backwards; and on such an issue
the people Of Minnesota will not turn
about when they once haye placed
their hands to the plow. In those
days the hireling press will be con.
strained to change the tune of theii
rantings from abuse to the song 81
'tme too, ""our man is as good Al
Lind" etc. Mark the prediction.

SAN QUENTIN PRISON. July s.
shortly before Warden Aguirre was form
ally elected to succeed w. Z. Hale as the
head Of the penitentiary Governor Gage
and party were taken through the insti-
tuition and its practical working features
shown to him. At that time Gage mani
tested his acquaintance with remark
ably large number Of the inmates and
frequently was drawn TO one SIDE by some
prisoner and a whispered consultation
was held in some cases lasting several
minutes After the party left those con-
victs with whom the Governor had spoken
appeared, for some reason or other. to be
in happy frames of mind, and some even
stated that their future lot was going to
be lighter than formerly.
on account of a knowledge of the fact
that all the convicts who spoke to Gage
were from the southern part of the State.
The first substantial proof that Gage in
tends showing favors TO prisoners from
the south now comes to light.
over thirty of the inmates are scheduled
to leave the prison this month and among
this number the rights of citizenship will
be restored to five by the gubernatorial
dictum. One of the lucky, ones will be
Peter Derrenbecker. who has served 4
ffteen-year term from San Diego for as
sault to murder.
The law prescribes, among other things,
that the rights of citizenship shall not be
restored to a discharged convict unless
his behavior shall have been exemplary,
and the record of Derrenbecker shows
plainly that judged by this rule, he would
have TO suffer About three years ago
the man was parOled and permitted to re
turn 10 San Diego. His behavior was
such that in a short time he was reported
to Warden Hale, who went to San Diego
to bring him back to the penitentiary.
Derrenbecker was drunk and disorderiS
several times while out on parole and
finally made vicious sault upon per-
son with whom he had a disa greement.
II was this assault which caused his pa
role to be revoked.
The Warden took the convict in hand
dmCt anu oPTr binseIf Elf In decent manner on the
trip to San Quentin he was not hand
cuffed. While the train was passing
through the San Joaquin Valley Derren-
becker crawled through a window, jumped
to the ground as the train was leaving a
station and made his escape. He was re-
