he will go to the judicial convention

lutlons we're adopted:
Whereas, The citizens OF the Captal
City OF Montana, in mass meeting as

struggle now pending in the twin re-
publics of South Africa, wherein the
question OF the success OF the Boer

the form Of government that has made
the United States the foremost nation
OF the earth is worthy OF success in this
latest and we hope triumphant, effort
TO maintain the republics Of the Trans

And whereas, The war now being

supported by the British government,

unjust position "thc taxing OF the Uit-

Resolved, That we extend TO Prcsi-
dents Kruger and Stcyn and their val

wishes of Montana's capital for the
success OF their cause, and that victory
may mean the establishment OF the
United States OF South Africa.
Resolved, That we pledge Our moral

Banquet at WaSeca.

The fifth annual banquet OF the An
cient Order OF Hibernians and Ladies'
Auxiliary of Waseca county was held at
Goodman's hall, Wascca, last Wedncs-
day night, The attendance was large
and the excellent program prepared for
the occasion was enjoyed by all. Mr..
Conway, president OF the division, pre-
sided and preceding the banquet pre-
pared by the ladies the following was
the order of exercises:

nor: song, Miss Since; address, "The
Destiny of the Irish Race" Hon. Ig-

meeting which is plainly political in its
character"
The St. Paul Globe pokes fun at the
Republicans who decline to participate
i'll the meeting and says:
Republican politicians, many of them
high i'll the councils OF their party and
aspiring to leadership or to prominent
place, are at present suffering great en-
barrassment owing to the indiscretion
OF the gentleman who is acting as sec
rotary OF the pro-Boer demonstration
to be held i'll Minneapolis next Sunday.
This secretary, MIR. Donaghue by name,
and Irish by nature, as his love for a
sharp jest at the expense OF political OPP
ponents indicates, has sent invitations to
many prominent Republicans to be
present at the meeting at which John P
Altgeld, OF Illinois, was billcdas speak

ever, but that fact was not known be-
fore yesterday, and in any event lessons

Republicans but little.
The fact is, many OF them hold pro-
Boer sentiments in their capacity as
private citizens, but as Republican poll
ticians they conceive it to be their duty
to side with President Mckinley and his
administration and to frown upon any
demonstrations of pro-Boer sympathy
They see that sympathy with the Beers
if publicly expressed, might very easily
lead to anti-expansion and anti-imperi.

that from one thing to the other is but

Other Republican leaders who are
able to read the handwriting on the

excuse that their early religious training
has created in their minds prejudice

must decline to attend next Sunday

In a recent address the Rev. Burt
Estes Howard, the noted Congrcga-
tional preacher OF Los Angeles, said:
No policy was ever adopted in the
history of the world that savorcd more
OF the sophistry that a good end JUST
ned corrupt means. 1t is like play
ing the harlot to obtain money to put
on the collection plate Do not tell
me that men, manipulated that great
fund for buying votes, the men who
ntimidatcd and cocrccd by threats OF
various calamitics the poor voter who
was forced to make merchandise OF his
manhood in order to hold his position
and save his little ones from starvation;
do not tell me that these men who sub
verified the fundamental principles OF a
republican form OF government, the
right OF independent suffrage and the
free choice Of those who shall rule over
us, believe in republican institutions
They do not. They believe that they
have found something better than a
democracy. They have bartcrcd the
legacy OF Our forcfathcrs for financial
and commercial dcspotism.
"If some man would declare that this
talk OF coercion is false, he must go to
someone else besides me to find a pa
ticnt and crcdulous listener to his lying
preaching. Was l not approached in
my own study with subtle threatenings
and insinuations? Was l not myself
