JUpGING from the manner in Whlch
the Popocrat campaigners are singing
mud, the fusionists' party must be IN

NOBODY supposes that a game war

THE spectacle of an Afro.American
presenting Bryan, the representative
OF the North Carolina red shirts, with

remembered by the people OF the

- REFORM AND TWINE.

"~~ 1t took one years trial and $4,000
of the: peoples money to prove that the
reform party wasn't capable of accom-
plishing any reform in the prison
twine plant. And just to think! Two
years ago they we're telling us that
was where they were going to make
their first reform. st. Peter Journal. 5

BRYAN'S PROSPERITY.

Bryan said yesterday: "Now, I am
lawyer, and I have been so busy lately
prosecuting the Republican party for
grand larceny that I have not had
much time to defend for petit larceny.
(Laughter.) I have a small farm, but
it is more valuable as an illustration
than as: farm" This shows that there
are two vocations in which Mr.. Bryan
has failed conspicuously. The only
business that he prospers ats denoune-
ing PROSPERITY .-Duletth Ne,os- Tribune.

LIND'S BINDING TWINE.

The farmers of the State will have
good reason to remember Gov. Lind's
administration. It was an expensive
one for them. They abused Clough
roundly because under his administra-
ton they could not get all the binding
twine they wanted, and had to pay a
big price for part of their supply to the
twine trust Under the reform man
agement they indeed got all they
wanted, but they found out when har-
vest time came that private dealers
were offering to sell the same kind OF
twine for two or three cents a pound
less than they had paid for it. Indeed
the prison twine was both dearer ir
price and poorer in quality than thai
purchased on the open market.-Oevd

1T is no abuse of Gov. Lind to show
the shortcomings OF his administra-

or's fault, but his misfortune, that his
appointments were bad. Remember
ing what the governor used to say
about Democrats, we cannot deny that
he had a pretty poor lot to pick from;
but he cannot blame the people for

his subordinates.-St. Paul Herald.

BRYAN 5 NEW 'PARAMOUNI.
The head of the Democratic party
has abandoned his much-trumpeted
''paramount issue'' and substituted
trusts, and is, with his usual reckless
ness, attacking the Republican party
as the promoter and protector of trusts
and declaring that if he is elected he
will see that his attorney general sen
forces the existing laws" He knows
that all the antitrust Legislation
enacted by congress is the work of the
Republican party; that the Democratic
administration which took control ir
1898, distinctly failed to take steps tt
enforce the law; that the ''trusts'
against which the law of 1890 wa
aimed have been changed to combina
tions of capital, purchasing outrigh
and owning industrial plants and 81
have evaded the menace of the law O
1890: that the Democrats deliberatel,
defeated a resolution proposing con
stitutional amendment to enable con
gress to control industrial combina
tions so far as to prevent abuses O
their privileges injurious to the pub
lie, thus showing their entire insin
cerity in furiously demanding the re
moval of such abuses.

THE feeling against sophomore socie-
ties, whose special intensity was repre-
scented as something peculiar 70 the
lass of 1900. proves To be no less strong
in the class of 1901 also. This makes
impossible she acceptance by the col

name Of the sODhOmOre societies and
contemplating their DerDetuauOn in
their present organized forms.
Communications have been received
from large numbers of graduate mem
