1t Is estimated that the employees of
the state government pay into the
fusion campaign fund no less than
$50, 600 year as a premium upon the
jobs they hold. In the last campaign
Lind had the people with him, but no
machine; this year he has thsmachine,
but not the people. There is no vir-
tue in making plumbers, but there is
God-liks virtue in righting them.
We believe the voters are anxious to
make amends for their blunder OF '96.

The state democratic pluggers, who
miscall themselves the "reforrn bu.
reau," are sending out the old CAM
paign mummy about the Republican
administration having extorted cam
paign contributions from the elevator
companies, taking il out of the price
of wheat. II there be any one who
ought to sing low about campaign
contributions, the deformed press bu-
reau is the one. The salary of the
manager of said bureau is derived
from assessments arbitrarily levied
upon the employees of the grain in
spection bureau and other state de-
partments. A systematic touching is
being done, that every democratic en-
ploye may contribute his share to the
upbuilding of a Tammany Hall tenn
pie in Minnesota. This party went
before the people in '9S with howl
for pure government and against po-
litical machines. See the results of
their victory. They have built up and
are maintaining the most thorough.
complex and expensive machine the
state has ever known: they have in
vented and are perfecting a system OF
blackmail and extortion that would
i sgrace the government Of Hades.
