Mr. Coler said ho would support the
candidates 81 the National convention. He
had no, talked of the silver issue with
Mr.. Jones.
II think said MIR Coler, THAT the
question Of commerrialism is one OF the
most important IL not the most impor-
tant. now before the people have con-
suited with some Of the State leaders and
believe | viii get this plank into the
State platform as well as the National
platform. want TO get It into all the
State platforms. And | shall try to do
so.
The primary purpose of the plank
which Suggest is to stop the incorpora-
ton OF companies merely for purposes of
manipulation. Publicity is what ! seek,
a mans private business is his own
secret, but as soon as he resolves a char
ter from the state It becomes public
business. and the State should control It..
Every great corporation that I nirols
public utilities has at its head men who
have held political office. Having gained
knowledge OF political methods while hold
ing office by the franchise OF the people
they turn the knowledge acquired against
the people. The vast and to some extent
llegitimate fortunes OF today. are the
result of public men giving to private cor
porations private rights"

1t is thoroughly appreciated that Ger

the United States.
1t is understood the administration ex-
poets Germany to try to block, diplomat
cally, every plan which may strengthen
the position of the United States as In
the case of the Donish West Indies, bYt
is not supposed for a moment that she
will go to the extent Of hostlities. 1t IS
thought to be her policy to continue the
colonization Of Central and South America
TO get a preponderent German influence
in those states so that in case of war with
the United states these Germsn communi-
ties might have an important bearing upon
the degree Of neutrality the Southern re-
publics would enforce. The German en-
bassy, in line with the policy of the state

The Republican party of Mime

it's history because of internal dis

in the campaign of 1898. As if
the danger of division were instinc-

favor of it's candidate for governor
two months before the assembly

There was a meeting Of the Con-
gressional committe in Mankato
Tuesday, nine being present, en-
dorsing Congressman cCleary
and saying there was no opposi-
tion in the district, except in two
counties. Three of this committee
are o6ice-holders under Nc Cleary's
appointment. two others are seek
ing an appointment and the others
have hopes of getting one. From
this meeting the word is sent
forth that every one in the Second
district will whoop-er-up for Nc
Cleary this fall and voters are fall
ing over themselves to secure q
rocket to shoot off for the famous
congressman. If the people will
stop and consider the meeting
above mentioned, they will see
how the "bill that bears my name"
is placed on the ticket, not by the
peoples choice, but a few post
masters and would-be's. After
tho name is on the ticket you must
follow the party through. We
believe by all means that the party
candidates should be endorsed
when there is no good reason for
doing othe-";se, but when candid
ates are named that turn their
backs upon their constituents and
work for the interests of Wall
street and trusts as McCleary has
done, a voter is justified by his
manliness and patriotism in bolt
ing any ticket, and nothing will
purify politics quicker than turn
