HANNA's sLUsH FUND.

Now that Boss Hanna is send
ing out letters to the trusts de-
handing their contribution to the
republican campaign fund, the
republican method Of determin-
ing which are good and which are
bad trusts may be said to be under
full Roadway. The trusts which
will be classed by Hanna as good"
trusts, and for that reason be en-
couraged, protected and fostered
by republican legislation, will be
those that respond promptly and
literally to Hanna's Doodle de-
mands. The 'bad'' trusts will be
those that fail to respond in such
manner. The best of all the
trusts, and the one that will get
from the republican party any,
thing it may want in the line of
perfection of it's especial monopoly
will be the trust which makes the
biggest contribution to the repub-
lican slush fund. Under these
clearly defined aud distinctly I'M
derstood conditions it is reasonably
certain that there will be salts
factory trust response to Hanna's
demands. It is safe to say that
the $30,00O,0OO which the republi-
can boss confidently expects to
raise from the trusts will be speed
lily forthcoming. Why not? Han
ma assures the trusts that with
this slush fund of $30,000.000 he
can again carry the country for
Mckinley. If he is correct in
this estimate Of the purchasability
of the American people it is the
people themselves, and not the
trusts, who will in the long run
pay the s3O,000,000. It will be
taken from their pockets by trust
legislation.

ASSISTANT Secretary of War
Meiklejohn has been on trip
through the west, and on his re-
turn to Washington expressed the
belief that Mckinley will carry
Nebraska. His faith is founded
on the vote Of the smiddle-of-the-
road" populists. He says: "They
will poll not less than 10000 votes
this fall. With that number
taken from Bryan's majority of
four years sgo, this state will
certainly cast its vote for Nc
Kinley.". If Mr.. MeikIejohn's
representations are as far off as
his mathematics, they are not very
valuable. As Bryan's plurality in
Nebraska was 1876 loss of TO-
GOO would not give the state to
Mckinley.

THE SECOND BATTLE.

Last Wednesday, at Indian.
apolis, W. J. Bryan received the
official notice of his nomination
for the Office Of president of the
United States. Every close obser-
yer is struck with the wonderful
development in Mr., Bryan's char
acter during the last four years.
His nomination four years ago
was unexpected. He was man
young man a boy. His char.
acter was untried, his ability un-
known, but before the campaign
had progressed two weeks, the re-
publican management found that
they had before them a battle
royal and so it proved to be. The
republican party won, but by SO
small a majority, that the leaders
trembled at the narrow escape
they had. Bryan boldly an
nounced that it was but the first
battle-a second one was to come.
Few people even believed that he
could SO hold together the forces
of democracy that second nomi-
nation would be given him after
the lapse of four years. And
when it became apparent that
these four years were to be filled
with great events-events which
not only changed the political
complexion of the United States
but changed the comparative
status of the United States as q
world power, a majority of men
thought Bryan would be left
behind the great procession of
issues. They never were more
in their lives. With
these great events, Bryan has kept

UNMARRIED women, who were
settlers upon claims that they had
not filed upon, and who married
before entering the land have
heretofore been at disadvantage
A recent ruling of the Interior
department has set the matter
right. 1t reads as follows; "When
an unmarried woman who has
heretofore settled, or NAV here
after settle, upon tract of public
land, improved, established, and
maintained a bona fde residence
thereon, with the intention of
appropriating the same for a
home, subject to the homestead
law, and has married or shall here
after marry, before making entry
of said land, or before making ap-
plication to enter said land, she
shall not on account Of marriage
forfeit her right to make entry
and receive patent for the land;
Provided, that she does not aban-
don her residence on said land.
and is otherwise qualified to make
homestead entry: Provided furthar
that the man who she marries is
not, at the time oftheir marriage,
claiming separate tract of land
under the homestead law.

MAX WIPpERMAN, the candidate

MAX W1PPERMAN, the candidate
for governor, is representative of
the younger element of the demo-
cracy of tue Northwest. He is a
German-American, with all the
thorough, rugged integrity of the
German race, coupled with the
energy and dash Of the westerner.
So we'll is he thought of at home,
that in his OWE county of Rich
land, which polls a vote of some
thing over 5000, he ran 1900
ahead of his ticket. This was
making it pretty near unanimous.

HIRES a gem of editorial know

nothing-ness from the columns of
the Morning Telegram, a Winni-
peg. daily which exhibits it's de-
plorable lack of knowledge of
events of the day by the clumsy
way in which it attempts to put
the blame on Bryan for the Beers
holding out so obstinately in South
Africa:
1T is stated that the Democratic lead
ers have promised that, should they be
placed in power, they will intervene in
the South African struggle in favor of
the Boers."
It is such politics as this that
will elect Bryan. Republican
dailies, as we'll as their foreign
allies say Bryan is responsible for
the Beers continuing the war in
South Africa. They also give it
out that Bryan is protecting
Agu1naldo in the mountains of
Luzon; that Bryan is responsible
for the Boxer uprising in China;
that Bryan is the cause of the
famine in India; that Bryan is the
cause of the excess of failures last
week over the preceding week;
that Bryan caused the drouth this
year in the Northwest. In fact
that Bryan is the cause of every
thing bad and nothing good.
Bryan certainly must be the prince
Of the devils, from the point of
view taken by republicans and
foreigners, and even they must
admit that Beelzebub has more
followers than Christ. It is such
arguments as the republicans and
their allies are putting up in this
campaign that will defeat Nc
Kinley and elect Bryan and it is
better for the nation and the world
generally that it should be so.

IS HE coNs1sTENT7

Is HE CONSISTENT?
In an editorial of recent date I'M
der the title of, Are They Consis-
tent?" the Cavalier County Re-
publican attempts to criticise
the democratic party on the
position it has taken on the
question of Imperialism. The
basis of it's criticism is the
attitude some of the southern
states have tSken on the qualifica-
tions of voters of those states, with
out stating what those require
ments are. In every state named
the qualification required is an
educational one.
In our own state, in 1896, re-
publican legislature adopted a
resolution to amend our Constitu-
ton in that respect. This resolu-
ton was in due form submitted
to the Legislature in 1897, which by
the way was republican in both
branches, and adopted by them and
then submitted to the people of
North Dakota and ratified by them
in 1898 at a time when there was
q large republican majority and is
now part of our constitution as
Article 2 of Amendments to the
Constitution of North Dakota, and
provides in substance that citizens
of the United States only shall
vote at any election and that the
legislature shall establish an edu-
cational test as a qualification for
voting.
What difference is there between
the requirements of the North
Dakota constitution in this re-
spect and that of any southern
state. Will our republican brother
please point it out?
There is one marked difference
and it is this: 1t was the evident
intent Of our republican friends in
North Dakota to disfranchise
many Of our foreign born voters
who had not taken out their second
papers and many of whom had
voted for years.
Are the southern states merely
carrying out an enlightened policy
in requiring an educational test
for voters, or has North Dakota
and other northern republican
states made mistake in doing the
same thing? What has an edu-
cational test for voters got to do
with the question of Imperialism
anyhow?
1t Is understood that the editor
of the Republican was democrat
until he purchased the Cavalier
County Republican in the fall of
1898, after the election of that
year. Did he leave the demo.
cratic party on account of the
adoption of the Second Amend
ment to the Constitution of the
State of North Dakota, or because
some southern states that we're
then and now are democratic had
adopted an educational test for
voters.
