Mr.. A M. Allen, private secretary OF
Speaker Reed, gives it out in an inter-
view that Mr.. Reed desires to withdraw
from politics and will never be candi-
date for the presidency. He further
said there was nothing in the asserted
antagonism of Speaker Reed to the Nc
Kinley administration, that in reference
to the war with Spain Mr.. Reed had
been no more conservative than was
President Mckinley at the beginning,
but that he is disguised with the pres
emit war in the Philippines. In this re-
spect it is not likely that Speaker Reed
feels much worse regarding the war
than does President Mckinley, and
were he president would likely do much
as Mr.. Mckinley is now doing.

NEW PROCEEDINGS BEGUN.
Grading and Culvert Contracts for tn
M. & N. u. Road Soon to be Let.

Saturday afternoon, Attorney Cray
secured the dismissal of the condemna
ton proceedings to secure the un
purchased right of way for the Man
kato & New Ulm railroad. This move
was due to slight change in the route,
and the proceedings will be begun again
at once.
1t is believed that the contract fol
the grading and culverts will be award
ed within few days, and that work
will begin as soon as the ground will
permit, as the road comes into posses
sion of the right of way as soon as the
condemnation proceedings have been
started. There is very little grading to
do, and it is believed that trains will be
running in the fall.

The bill providing for the parole of
life prisoners after they have served
twenty years and have had no marks
against them, which was defeated in
the senate the other day, was reconsid-
cred yesterday. and after being amend
ed so as to provide that parole cannot
be granted without the unanimous con-
sent of the board of pardons, was passed
by a vote of 4S to 5. This amendment
was doubtless made because of the
Younger brothers, and with the belief
that unanimous consent of the board
in their behalf cannot be secured.
While it is looked upon as harsh
amendment, yet it is probably one that
will stand in the way of securing the
parole of very few if any prisoners,
other than the Youngers. And it may
not for them. A parole is far differ
cent thing than pardon and ought to
be SO looked upon. The large majority
by which the bill passed the senate
gives its friends hopes that it will go
safely through the house. 1t ought to
and so change the idea of everyone to.
ward criminals, into that of reforma-
ton.

lGibbon, Hume and Buckles were his
historians. Huxley, Spencer and
Spinoza were his teachers, and he
delighted in Emerson, Byron, Burns
and others.
With seemingly no,thought for him
self, he cared only. for. his family and
friends. And to them today the crys-
talizations of his energy shine brighter
than ever before. The condensations
of his efforts are plainly to be seen in
the home and hearts and lives he leaves
behind.
He has always been advocate of tenn
perance, aud by temperance he meant
total abstinence, scarcely knowing the
taste of alcohol himself, He never used
| tobacco in any form. sAs consequence
of his temperate habits, his has been,a
long life of uninterrupted action.
Never knowing sickness until the stroke
of apoplexy which called him to his
grave. In losing HIM we lose our loyal
townsman and honored citizen, and our
hearts go out in deepest sympathy for
the bereft ones.
By request Alexander Pope's ''Uni-
versal Prayer was read at the close of

The orators at yesterdays Democratic
ratification meeting at city hall laid a
good deal of stress on the contest that
was waged in the Republican city con-
claimed that because of the warm fight
over the mayoralty nomination a whole
lot of Republicans were ready to drop
into the Democratic hand basket. Not
so. The Republicans have very happy
faculty of fighting their battles in the
open, and in submitting to the will OF
the majority. This is much more com.
,mendable and more in keeping with
popular ideas of government than was

A PROFITABLE CROP.
That is What the Cultivation of Sugar
BeetS to Be.

At the board of trade meeting Monday
morning Ed. Schumacher reported the
matter of securing beet sugar acreage
as progressing satisfactorily, aud some
little discussion followed along the line
of this subject as to what, is being done
elsewhere Bay City, Mich, last year
had one beet sugar factory in operation
and could secure hardly enough beets
to last it through the season. 1t has
now two more factories building and
they have contracts for $1,000 acres of
and could secure more were they able to
use them. The following comparison
of profits in raising wheat, corn and
beets was made by visitor at the Bay
City factory, and is from letter pub
lished in the Glencoe Register:

Now that the conventions are over

the action of the Democrats in holding
convention behind locked doors the
night before and then coming be-
fore the public at the hour ad-
vertised for the holding the convention
proper, and simply exposing their pre-.
arranged slate in a meeting that was
nothing more nor less than a session to
ratify the action of the bosses of the
night previous. There is much feeling
a abroad on the street against the stal
chamber action of the fellows who en-
gineered the deal, and that it will oper-
ate against the ticket nominated there
can be no doubt.
The Democrats did not feel disposed
to place themselves on recordinfavoroi
reform of the finances of the city. The
party was as silent as the grave on the
one subject that has caused more interest
in the present campaign than anything
that has ever come into our municipal
politics. 1t leaves itself wide open to
continue along the same extravagant
lines that has been pursued by its pre-
sent and previous administrations. 1t
was, perhaps, to be expected that it
would not attempt an endorsement OF
the present administration, but its cow
ardly silence on future policy is most
assuredly death blow to the possible
success of its ticket on the 4th of April
The tax payers of Mankato-large
and small alike-are stirred as never
before in a municipal contest. They
have stood passively by for years and
noted the constant increase of taxation
caused by extravaganza and non-busi-
ness methods as applied to the conduct
of the citys business. This Calling
condition has finally aroused them to
an activity that presages better things.
Par uy ties this year will only hold the
voter to support such men as represent
a determination to redeem the city
from its present great floating indebt-
edness and conduct the public business
on strictly business principles. This,
we are glad to say, the Republican
candidates are pledged to do, and the
platform upon which they are placed
pledges the Republican party to the
same thing. With the pledge of the
party behind the candidates, with the
candidates themselves thoroughly com
mitted to the subject and determined to
vindicate the principles for which they
ask the suffrage of the voters OF the
city, there is every reason why they
should receive the united support of al
who want to get out from under the
burdensome load we are now carrying
Democracy stands for nothing in this
campaign as the silence of its conven
ton clearly indicates.
