RICE MARKET.



Rough Rice-None offering; season over.
W. G.. Morrell says of rice The market
as usual at this season of the year, is
quiet but there is a good undertone and
the wise merchant is taking in every bar
gain that comes along. The better grades
of white hinty rices are almost a thing
of the past, and each week, as small rem
nants appear, they are quickly picked up
at the highest prices of the year. Our
medium grades, or such as compare TO
the ordinary foreign product, are plenti-
full and apparently not much sought af-
ter Nevertheless their turn must come,
for they are fully nc to PC below what
similar grades of foreign can lie sold at.
In our market we have milled and dis
tributed- about two-thirds>of this season
receipts, with six month"; left to dispose
of the remaining one-thrd New Or
leans reports a stock of only $4,000 bags
of rough and 1000 barrels of cleaned rice,
the total of which is not equal to the
amount distributed there during Febru-
ary So in thirty days they should be
entirely out and looking to the interior
of Louisiana for further supplies Our
CORRESPONDENT there tells us there have
been some enormous sales of low grades
made. some 10000 bags of the cleaned
product going to the Pacific coast. while
jain g. Co. Of New York are reported to
have bought some 3OOOO bags more LOT
shipment to Porto Rico.
We are not prepared to assert that rice
is going to materially advance, but If APP
pearances count for anything, this spring
and summer when more rice is used than
at any other season, will find the domes-
tic crop of desirable grades completely
used up, and If we mistake not, will have
to fall back IN Japan and Java kinds for
our daily wants. OF course, the low
4 ripnC
NAV continue to be in evidence, but these
gradesAa are being less called for each year.
From the above our friends and custom
ers can draw their own conclusions.

They have what you might call an inter-

gerous that they decided that 1t would be

sewed me up with an overland stitch ana

HAS NO OPPORTUNITY
Under Trusts the Young Man of
Today Has Little Chance
for Progress.

On this point ex-senator Washburn
used the following language in an in
terview in the Chicago Times-Herald,
Sept. II, 1899:
when / was young mani am
now sixty-eight-1 had the world be-
fore me, and there was absolutely a
fair field for me. Take all of our most
successful business men of today and
their experiences were like mine. They
entered the race without a handicap,
and their grit and capacity won. Now,
this building up of trusts puts a stop
to fair and equal opportunities for the
young men of today.
THE YOUNG MAN JUST OUT
OF COLLEGE HAS NO OPENING,
AS A RULE. HE CANNOT BE-
GIN BUSINESS ON HIS OWN AC-
COUNT AGAINST ORGANIZED
CAPITAL. HE MUST JOIN THE
PROCESSION: HE MUST CON
TENT HIMSELF WITH BEING A
MERE CLERK, AND THE
CHANCES ARE THAT HE WILL
NEVER GET ANY FURTHER BE-
CAUSE THERE ARE SO MANY IN
HIS CLASS.
This makes the situation serious
one, and I am sorry for the young
man of today. I have studied the sit
uation, and am sure OF what I am
saying"

A SPECIMEN ANSWER
The G. O. P. Trust Defenders
Think Much Of Standard Oil.

The Republican state central commit
tee has issued big sheet with very
proper mourning line about it, to off,
set the very clear statement given in
the Democratic Trust Poster, contrast
ing conditions under trust prices and
trust rule with former years before the
trusts laid its grip upon everything the
farmer buys.
The Republican sheet pretends to
compare the purchasing power of cer-
tain products in October, 1000, with
October, 90, using some of the prin-
cipal farm products.
THE FIGURES GIVEN ARE IN
MANY INSTANCES FALSE AND
MISLEADING, BUT THE CON-
PARISON WHILE PRETENDING
TO BE GIVEN FOR 1896 AND 1900
ONLY GOES BACK TO $685.
It then takes up coal oil, its most
familiar trust article, and pretends to
show how much more coal oil could be
bought in 90 with stated quantities Of
products more than today.
NOW THE POINT OF THE
WHOLE MATTER IS THIS: THAT
COAL OIL, THE REPUBLICAN
FAVORED MONOPOLY, THE
STANDARD OIL COMPANY, HAS
A COMPLETE MONOPOLY OF
THE UNITED STATES, HAVING
CRUSHED ALL OF THE INDI-
VIDUAL REFINERS-HAS BEEN
SLIGHTLY CHEAPENED, BUT
THE STATEMENT FAILS TO
MENTION A SINGLE OTHER AR
TICLE IN WHICH A COMPARE
SON FAVORABLE TO THE &c. O.
P" COULD BE MADE.
What the Democratic poster showed
was that for long list of articles
which the farmer must pay for with
his crop, the producing power of his
crop now is a very large per cent less
than it was in 1896, the year with
which comparisons were made. This
applies to articles of iron, steel, barb
wire, tinware, ETC., running through the
whole gamut.
THUS IS THE G. o. P. REJOIN-
DER A DISMAL FAILURE, SO
DISMAL THAT THERE IS NO
WONDER THAT THE SHEET
WHICH IS ISSUED WAS DRESS
ED IN A BIG BROAD BAND OF
MOURNING.

It is timely to warn the people
against the roorbacks and campaign
lies that are likely to be sprung by the
Republican managers just before elec-
ton day.
Two years ago Mr.. Vandiver, the
present head Of the Republican Press
Bureau, published in the St. Paul Dis
patch bogus speech of Governor
Lind, for which The Dispatch was after
wards fined and obliged to pay to Gov
ernor Lind 5000 indemnity.
For this feat Tams Bixby appointed
Vandiver head of the Republican Press
Bureau and there is nothing so low and
contemplate in the way of campaign
lies and roorbacks but what the people
may safely expect it from that source:

OUR STATE
CANDIDATES
The Entire List Appeals to All
Voters Who Want the Cause
of Good Government in
Minnesota to Go For
ward, and Not
Backward.

Governor Lind in himself presents
the chief question of approval OF reform
administration. He is making a
wonderful canvass His clear, earnest,
concise exposition of national and state
issues, has made him hosts of new
friends wherever he has spoken and has
strengthened the old ones The peo-
pie see in him more than ever the
champion of their interests and of their
rights, the opponent of dishonest cor
porations and grasping syndicates.
Thomas J. Meighen, Democratic
Peoples candidate for lieutenant gov
ernor, has also been making hosts of
friends. His active and efficient work
as member of the state board of
equalization in forcing certain corpora
tions and syndicates to bear their honest
share Of the burden of taxation, is be-
coming better known and making
friends for him every day.
The confidence which the laboring
men have in NJ. E. Neary, Democratic
Peoples candidate for secretary of state,
and which they have in former times
expressed by electing him to positions
of trust and honor in their organiza-
tons, has been growing constantly and
will make him strong candidate with
the people throughout the state.
The large circle of friends which
Henry c. Koerner, Democratic Peoples
candidate for state treasurer, has in
every county of Minnesota, gives him
an advantage such as few men possess.
In every county of the state Mr.. Koer-
ner has personal friends, irrespective of
party, that will stand by him and work
for his election and the election of those
on the state ticket with him.
The reputation which Robert G..
Saunders, Democratic-Peoples candi-
date for attorney general, has won as
an attorney in advancing the rights OF
the people and enforcing the laws of
the state, especially in the enforcement
of taxes against standing pine on ex-
empt land grants, is appreciated by vot-
ers, irrespective of party, and makes
him tower OF strength for the entire
state ticket.
Among the things to which the pres
ent administration points with special
pride, and which more than anything
else have. proven it to be the friend Of
the people of the state, the champion
of their interests and welfare, there is
none which deserves greater praise than

ton will save the farmers of Minnesota

During six years previous to their adj

fell short at Buffalo an average of IS

took charge, this shortage has only
