Morris plurality ....7, 1852

The St. Cloud Times calls atten-
ton approvingly of the fact that
the election returns in this county
indicate that national prejudice at
the polls is passing away-and
cites the election of Mr.. Calhoun
over Mr.. Hansen as an indication.
lhe Times is to be commended for
its exalted position on this subject
and every newspaper in the land
should follow in the endeavor to
break down the pernicious nation
atty prejudice, until any candidate
for any office would be afraid, even
if not ashamed, to advance the
claim. The HERALD believes it to
be just as corrupt, dishonest, and
demoralizing to ask voter to vio-
late his political conviction under
the plea of nationality or religion,
as.to do the same thing or money
consideration. Fitness for the of
flee and the principles represented
are the only legitimate considera-
tons in determining a vote. The
Times is both brave and wise in
its advocacy of this principle lin

JUDGE NORRIS.

The splendid record of Congress-
man Morris during his three years
of active service in Congress was
the prime factor in his reelection
by such a remarkable increase.
The Pioneer Press, published out
side of his district, and better quail
flied to take a dispassionate and
unprejudiced view of him, perhaps,
than any one of his constituent
friends, has this to say:
The most surprising and the most
splendid of the congressional victories
in this state is that won by Judge NJ or
ris in the Sixth district. He was first
elected over Towne in 1896 by the
meager majority of 812, although that
was presidential year. In 1898 his
majority over Towne was still less,
being only 463 But this year the
district rolls up for him the magnif
cent majority of 7, 1852 over 1ruelsen.
This is something like. It shows the
people of that district have come to a
realizing appreciation of Judge Nor
ris, of his high standing and influence
III COuSTSSS ny fcdSOu OI superior
character aud abilities, and of the
great value of his services to his con.
stituents and to the country at large.
They have begun to understand al
last that they are fortunate in having
representative SO able and infiuen.
tial AS Judge Morris. This sudden
and marvellous change in the tempera
ture of the popular feeling toward him
as revealed in the contrast of his pres
ent majority of 7,462 with his
previous slender majorities, is due
not only to the increase of his person
al popularity, but to the changed at
titude of the people of the district
towards the policies and principals
he represents Four years ago the
Sixth district was the stronghold o.
the free silver delusion in this state
and two years ago it had not gotter
over it. But the big vote now received
by Judge Morris shows plainly tha
the people of that district have re
pudiated free silverism and all the
lunacies represented by Towne.

II is unfortunate that tile eonsti-
tutional amendment submitted at
the polls was lost by treason Of the
light vote it received. Under the
new law a constitutional amend
ment must have majority of all
the votes cast, therefore failure to
vote at all is equivalent to a vote
against it. tits pretty we'll assured
that no amendment, however i'm
portant. will ever again be adopted
under the presentlaW. This is not
an unmixed evil, for it will necessi-
tate the calling of constitutional
convention, for an up-to-date con-
stitution for the state. I.

a GOOD sHRINKAuE, ANvHOW,
In reply to the HERALD'S item
last week that Stearns was losing
Its prestige as the banner demo.
cratic county in Minnesota, the St
Cloud Times says:
IL is customary to talk of 1900 tc
4,O00 Democrotic majority In this
county, yet the figures never reached
the smallest number. The largest ma
jority ever given in the county was for
Cleveland ia 1892 and was 2845. That
year the Populist vote, then quite
large, was cast for him. In 1890
Judge Wilson for Governor, recei ed
2670, over Merriam. The average
Democratic majority for the last ten
elections covering seventeen years,
has been 2216. This year Lind's plu-
rality is 1852. Bryan's plurality Is
1854. ~.
Admitting just what the Times
says, the shrinkage is so remark
able that the HERALD feels justified
in its prophecy that Stearns will
some day, in the not distant future,
be good debatable ground, with re-
publican leanings.
In 1892 it gave 2,845 plurality
for Cleveland, and in 1900 it gives
but 1884 for Bryan-a a loss of 1861
votes, or over 81 per cent and that
in view of the fact that the county
is much more populous now than it
was eight years ago. Mr.. Calhoun,
the straight democratic candidate,
has only 3f2, and, and Mr.. Schil-
plin 765, while Mr.. Donohue. who
receives the largest plurality on the
county ticket is only 1874. If
Stearns county democracy is not
slumping, and that pretty rapidly
pray how does the Times interpret
these figures?

The officialvote of Stearns Coun-
ty shows some remarkable results,
The vote for president and goven-
or is less by 200 than the vote for
lieutenant governor, an office Of
small political significance; and 400

Why such marked discrepancy it is
difficult to explain. The ways Of

vIcToRY-AND THEN7

The full significance of tn,
splendid victory won by the Re
publican party last week is diff
cult to comprehend. BY a plu
rality of nearly a million the voter.
OF the United States have ex
pressed themselves satisfied witt
the financial policy of the Republi
cans-the Gold standard now
firmly established by law and by
public opinion; the protective poll
cy which achieved so much for the
industrial interests of the nation
raising this country in the incredi.
bly, short space of three~years from
universal depression to an activity
so marvelously great that the i'm.
mensity of the figures that must be
employed to express it almost sur
passes human comprehension--from
a condition of business stagnation
and its attendant distress to de-
gree of prosperity never before en-
joyed by this great nation, and far
beyond the expectation of the
most sanguine. Furthermore, the
people believe that the present ad-
ministration is better qualified to
deal with the new problems and
perplexities incident to the acquire
ment of trans-oceanic territories
a confidence that Porto Rico and
the Philippines will be governed
by principles of justice and equity
which will appeal to them, to us
and to the world at large. The
patriotic pulse of the nation was
quickened and the expressed policy
of the administration to suppress
the rebellious Filipinos, and to hold
the territory with a firm and lenient
hand, guaranteeing them the same
liberty of action speech and
thought which is enjoyed in the.
States, is emphatically approved.
With the extension of power the
Republican party assumes tremen-
dous responsibilities. The people
have expressed confidence in its
policies, and will hold it to a strict,
accountability for the way in
which those policies are executed.
Its platform policies inspired conf
dence, and to those promises it
will be rigidly held. Our foreign
policy, is of necessity, rather tenta-
tive than final. 1t will develop
with changed conditions, and the
party will meet them as they arise;
and there is not the slightest doubt
but the democratic minority will
acquiesce.
SO far as trusts are concerned,
the republican platform pledges the
party to the utmost endeavor to
deal with them vigorously and ef-
fectuallv. 1t is a difficult problem,
but assurances are not wanting
that public interests will be pro-
tected against trust aggressions.

can victory, and that the splendid

it radically departs from the solid

that they are back numbers, any
