SAMPLE OFFICIAL BALLOT SENT OUT
By SECRETARY OF STATE.

tains the names Of the Democratic.

the two amendments to the Copstjtu.
tion which will be submitted to the
people for ratification or rejection.

The Hennepin Republican Associa-
ton Lincoln Day banquet at the West
hotel last evening was great gather
ing of Republicans. The spacious din
ing room was tastefully and appro-
priately decorated and fully five hun.
bred members of the association rand
their guests were present to do honor to
the memory of the great Lincoln. The
Republicans of Minnesota are alive this
year as never before. The enthusiasm
last night was unbounded, and there
need be no misgivings about the energy
and determination that will be put into
the coming campaign. The names of
Lincoln and Mckinley were so linked
together and interviewer in the speeches
as to cause the widest enthusiasm. and
the next Republican governor of Min
nesota, Capt. Van SAINT, was cheered to
the echo when he arose to speak. The
Hennepin Republican association may
we'll feel proud OF the gratifying re-
suits of their efforts.

Gov. Taylor, of Kentucky. has
done about the only thing he could
do in refusing to sign the So
called peace agreement. 1t is pro-
bable that the question of who is
governor will now get into the courts
and will shortly be settled one way or
the other. The so-called agreement
was simply complete surrender by the
Republicans of all that they have
claimed. 1t is altogether probable that
the legislature and the state courts will
declare in favor of the Goebelites, as
the latter have control of the legislature,
and the judges of the state courts seem
to allow their prejudices to guide them
in this case rather than the facts.
Whether Gov. Taylor will abide by
that decision, or whether he will carry
the case to the federal courts is hard to
say, but which ever way it turns out,
the position Gov. Taylor has taken in
refusing to sign the agreement, will
leave Republicans there in better shape
and rob the usurpers of much of the
sympathy they might otherwise obtain.

The public would take more interest
in the so-called antitrust conference
now being held in Chicago if it were
not for the fact that ex-Gov. Altgeld,
Gov. Lee, of South Dakota, Chas. A.
Towne and Jerry Simpson are among
the controlling spirits. They are all
advocates of destructive and not of a
constructive policy. Their public repu-
tations have been made by advocating
that which would prove ruinous rather
than advantageous to the nation.

The Fairmont Sentinel in speaking
of the Minnesota delegation in con-
gress, says that as to the lower house,
not a man of her seven is in touch with
the masses on one of the prominent
issues of the day." The Sentinel is off
entirely. Close tab on Washington
matters shows that the Minnesota dele
gait on keeps pretty clos eto the masses
on the questions of the day. Of course
it doesn't indulge in the vagaries fol-
lowed by the Sentinel, but then the
trouble is the Sentinel mistakes itself
for the masses.

The story comes from Indianapolis
that an attempt is being made by east
tern Democrats to blockBryan's nomina-
ton by putting Richard Olney. of Mass.
achusetts, forward for the nomination.
Olney may get considerable of a follow
ing in the east, but it is not likly he
could get sufficient backing to give him
even a show of the nomination. Bryan
and his followers have the grip on the
organization and those of his party will
have to accept him or quietly vote
against him, which latter is what
thousands of then will do.

CONGRESS AND THE Pc
RICAN TARIFF.
PORTO

1t is said that President Mckinley
takes much to heart the refusal of con-
gress to give Porto Rico free trade
with the United States. 1t would
seem that congress had in this instance
made mistake. No harm would come
in the long run, to this country by free
trade with the little island There is
not an industry that would be per-
manently harmed by it. Besides, if
Porto Rico belongs to the United
States, is to be an integral part of it,
how can free trade with it be denied
The decision of the house ways and
means committee that the constitution
does not apply to that island would
seem to be rather far-fetched. Why
could not it have been as we'll said that
it did not cover the California purchase
because that was outside of the union
when the constitution was adopted.
There seems to be an impression among
some that if free trade is granted to
Porto Rico, it must also be granted to
the Philippines. But we do not see that
this is necessarily so. The conditions
are such that Porto Rico could soon,
under proper encouragement, become a
territory similar to New Mexico and
Arizona, and finally state. It will
doubtless be some years before this
latter can be brought about, but we see
no reason why it cannot be done. On
the other hand it is doubtful if the
time will ever arrive when such a con-
dition of affairs will be brought about
with the Philippines. There the widest
range of trade should be encouraged,
but it is doubtful if tariff duties are
ever entirely abolished.
In the case of the Hawaiian islands.
they haYe enjoyed system of reci-
procity with this country for years.
and it is hardly likely it will be dis
turbed and placed on a plane of the
proposed duties for Porto Rice. at even
% per cent duty. but why should not
the two be treated alike, put on the
same basis? Congress should take a
broader view of the matter. There is
no questioning the soundness of the
president as protectionist. He has
evidently gone over the subject thor
oughly and we believe congress would
make no mistake in following his view
in the matter.

VARIOUS OPINIONS.

.
Duluth News-Tribune:
Senator Pettigrew may be the noblest
of American patriots, but his preference
for Aguinaldos word instead of George
Dewey's does not recommend him very
highly.
GIVE IT BY ACCLAMATION.
St. Peter Tribune:
We hardly think Moses Clapp, at this
late date, will care to make fight for
the Republican nomination for gov
ernor. The general response over the
state in favor of the candidacy of r.
Van SAINT, is too strong to overcome this
year. and we believe Mr.. Clapp will so
view it. 1t would be a fitting recogni-
ton of the merits of Capt. Van SAINT, if
the convention would give him the
nomination by reclamation. This would
give him united send off at the begin
ming of the campaign that would be a
big prestige toward victory at the No
vember election
FAIR AND ABLE OFFICER.
st. Peter Herald:
A number of Republicans are making
an effort to defeat Lyndon A Smith for
the Office of lieutenant governor. If a
Republican is to be chosen, the Herald
hopes it will be Mr.. Smith. He is a
dignified and able presiding officer, an
excellent Observation-Disclosures public
officer who has never been tainted by
even breath of scandal. Mr.. Smith is
possessed by sense of honor and fair
ness seldom met with in oficeholders,
and, as said, if Republican is to hold
the Office we hope it may be Mr.. Smith.
A RESOLUTION FOR PETTIGREW.
Minneapolis Saturday Cynic:
Mr.. Pettigrew should offer a resolu-
ton to have published at government
expense. some of the opinions regard
ing himself, expressed by those in South
Dakota who know him BEST This
would make fully as good reading as
Aguinaldos statement.

applied to legislative matters.
