JOHN A. ROESER FOR AT
TORNEY.

The only distinctive Republican
running for a county office in
Stearns this year is John A. Roeser
of ST. Cloud, candidate for County
attorney. Mr.. Roeser was born in
St. Augusta, in this county, OF
German parentage, and his entire
life has been spent in Stearns
county. He read law in the office
of Geo. H. Rey nolds, and ten years
ago was admitted to the bar, and
was for the following three years
in Mr.. Reynt Ids employ, after
which he entered into partnership
with Mr.. Reynolds, acknowledged
ly one of the best lawyers in the
state. So far as competency and
ability is concerned Mr.. Roeser is
fully equipped for the position.
He is personally popular, making
friends wherever known.
Four years ago Mr.. Roeser left
the Democratic party, together
with thousands of others who had
been trained to believe that Mr..
Bryan and his platform were un-
democratic. He then allied h m
self with the Republican party,
and during the past two campaigns
has been stumping the county, in
German, for the Republican ticket
from first to last, and his work was
very effective.
| In appealing to Republicans for
votes Mr.. Roeser does it as Re-
publican, and as such is entitled to
the support of every Republican in
the county. His, opponent, Mr..
Donahue, in his speech of accept
ance, went out of the way to open
lily insult the Republican candidate
for President, and by implication,
every supporter of Mr.. Mckinley.
He emphasized his own simon-pure
brand of democracy, and said in
substance that he would make the
best possible fight against Republi-
canism, against Mark Hanna, and,
his presidential tool, William Nc
kinley. He could not have served
more direct notice upon the Repub-
licans that he neither expected nor
desired their votes.
| Let every Republican, therefore,
see to it that he puts cross after
the name of John A. Roeser for
/ County Attorney.

Can any Republican give a
reasonable excuse for refusing to
vote for Edward C. Hogan for the
legislature? He is honest, capable,
energetic, popular and aggressive.
He will represent his entire district
with ability and force. He will be
a member of the majority, and
therefore at decided advantage
for his district. Mr.. Hogan is the
one Republican on the local ticket
who has received a irregular Republi-
can nomination, and every Repub-
lican in the district is in duty
bound to support him.

"You have from this district in the
lower house of congress one OF the
brightest, most intelligent, high
minded, spotless, high toned gentle
men in public life today in the person

equipped man in his present place. !"

AN ARRANT DEMAooouE.

Mr.. Bryan refused to accept the
nomination upon the democratic
national ticket unless the Kansas
City convention incorporated a
specific plank declaring for the free
and unlimited coinage of silver at
the ratio of 10 to 1, without refer

addition to a general reaffrmation
of the Chicago platform of 1896, in
which this policy was affirmed in

1t is just as important that there
should be a Republican Legislature

Capt. Van SAINT served four years
in the army, all during the war of
the rebellion, and yet John Lind's
home organ at New Ulm sneers at
him as tin soldier. Great Scott!
Mr.. Lind served as quartermaster
at Chickamauga for the greater
part of one summer, and no one
sneers at his military record. His
intentions were good. 1t comes
with ill-grace from Mr.. Lind's
friends to fling at Captain Van
SAINTS military record. But his
party never did have much time
for soldier, anyway.

LIMBS DEMOCRACY.

1t is of the dyed-in.the-wool, un-
compromising type. Two years
ago he declared himself political
orphan-not an accepted child of
democracy, populism, nor republic
canism. He was elected by Re-
publican votes, cast for every other
Republican on the ticket other
than Governor only. These Re-
publicans took Mr.. Lind at his
word, that he was not a democrat,
not populist AN independent
candidate without political strings.
He promised non-partisan admin
istration, and marked improve
ment and economy in the grain
inspection department especially,
as in every oil branch of public
business. No sooner was he
elected than he filled every office
within his appointing power with
fusionists, without the remotest
reference to peculiar fitness
but wholly to build up an
effective machine for the per-
petuation of John Lind. Econc-
my was thrown to the winds,
and wheat inspection was not only
less satisfactory but more expen-
sive than ever before. And the
same is true of the Irvine manu-
facture in the state prison-poorer
Irvine and greater expense. As a
business proposition the election of
John Lind was loss to the state
in dollars and cents, IS also IN
efficiency of service.
AS to his political affiliations
let him speak for himself. At a
political banquet IN Minneapolis on
.'Old Hickory's Day" at which
time. and place he practically
opened his campaign for renomina-
ton, he said:
81 want it to be understood now and
all the time and every where, he cried
: in tones hoarse with feeling and en-
phasis, ''that L am not only an anti
imperialist, but an anti-Republican.'" =
The governors long arm shot out
straight as rod as he almost Kissed
these words. They went home like
capped bullets to the appreciation of
the delighted Democrats. Shouts of
satisfaction and JOY and thunderous
burst of applause came back at the
governor, standing with defiant air
and back-thrOwn head. John Lind 8
political orphanage had come to an
end. Still another blow drove the
realization of the fact home to all
present. 1t came in milder tones. but
it was grateful to the bourbons: s'And
1 want to say to my friend Bryan right
here that l shall not thank him or
anybody else who ever again desig-
mates me as silver Republican"
What claim has Mr.. Lind upon
the support of any republican in
the state of Minnesota? He has
practically said that he has no use
for them or their party. And his
every official act has but empha-
sized his utterance. Like Mr..
Towne. he threw off the republican
mask after it had served his pur-
pose of masquerading and conceal
ing his political identity.
In Capt. Samuel R. Van SAINT the
Republicans have candidate
whom they may support in conf
dence of clean, vigorous and in
telligent administration. He is
familiar with every requirement of
the office, has had experience in
the legislature, having served re-
peatedly-once as Speakers a
successful business man, and will
give the state business admins
tration.
For Governor, vote for Samuel
R. Van SAINT.

Officer Has Trouble With Two New
 Haven Italians.

l Wallingford, Nov. 22.-As the outcome
 of an attempt to arrest two Italians,
 Francis Pasquello and his brother Phil i ipi of New Haven, Policeman Hurley was slashed at with a razor twice by
 Philipi, but escaped injury each time
 and later he succeeded in placing the men under arrest.
 Both men were proceeding to the de- pot to take the 8:30 D. m. train for New Haven when they got into an alterca- tion with some other people, with the result that Francis drew his razor and slashed it around so vigorously, though not wounding anybody, that a stam- pede resulted. In the meantime Police- man John Hurley had been summoned and when he appeared the Italians fled The policeman started in pursuit, and as he was about to grasp Francis the latter drew the razor and made a slash for the policeman, but the latter drew away in time. Both brothers kept to- gether and on the second occasion as the policeman had about caught up the razor was drawn The men finally hid in a barn in the rear of Hall, Elton x Co.'S factory, where they were at last captured. Owing to the critical condi- ton of Philipi's wife he was permitted to return to New Haven late tonight, and about an hour later Francis was released under $100 bonds. The latter disclaimed having a razor, but one was found by some boys which, it is said, he was seen to drop.

London, Nov. 22.-Speaking this even- ing at a banquet given in his honor, General Butler defended the British army against the charges of outrages against women and of barbarous treat ment of Boers, declaring that all were false. He said that in three cases of alleged assaults upon women that were brought to his attention two of the ac- cused were Hottentots following the force and the third was also a <affir

Strong Letters Denouncing the Decree Have Been Written by the Ministers MT, Conger Advised by State Depart ment Not to Insist on Impossible Com ditions in the Negotiations.

 declaring that Tung Flu Hsiang must be
 punished. pr. Mumm Von Schwartz

 Ii Hung Chang that the foreign pow
 CTS must themselves punish the guilty
 officials
 Washington, Nov 22.-The state de- partment so far has heard nothing from MT. Conger respecting the im- passe reported to have been reacheI by the foreign ministers yesterday at Pe- kin. In fact save brief expression re- specting the insufficiency of the pun ishments proposed by the Chinese gov ernment to be inflicted upon the re- sponsible leaders of the Boxer move ment, MT Conger has not communi- cated with the department for more than a week
 Without taking issue with MT. Con- ger respecting this matter of punish ments, the state department has earn estly advised him not to insist upon impossible conditions in the negotia- tions.
 An interesting problem is suggested by the possibility, which to-day IS all most a probability, that the ministers representing the powers at Pekin can not reach an agreement. If Russia France and the United States should re- fuse to accept the German idea, as sec onded by the British representative, very much would depend upon Japan and even some of the lesser powers represented at Pelin by ministers might have great power in sWaying the proceedings of the council. The impression seems to be that if ma iority of the ministers or perhaps even one of the representatives of a great power withholds assent to the agree ment then the whole undertaking falls and there must be either fresh negotia- tions directly between the home gov ernments in the effort to agree upon new bases of action, or the powers must proceed to deal with the Chinese situation singly or in groups, the latter having been provided for in the German-British agreement

l New York, Nov. 22.-The great ex-
 press steamer of the North German | Lloyds, the Kaiser Wilhelm der Crosse,
 arrived to-day forty-eight hours over- due, and, to add to her misfortunes,
 grounded near the Southwest Spit in the lower bay after passing in Sandy Hook. IThe Kaiser Wilhelm der Crosse left Cherbourg November 14 at 80 D. m.,
 and arrived at the Sandy Hook light ship at 2:50 D. m to-day making the
 passage in seven days twenty hours
 and twenty minutes, with an average speed of 1922 knots This is the slow est trip ever made by the steamer. The
 cause of her delay was primarily the
 stormy weather encountered through out the voyage. On the 16th at D. m. one blade of the port propeller was lost and the engineers were obliged to slow the engines down to sixteen knots.
 On the Fist coal trimmer named Knick jumped overheard and was lost. He was q German about seventeen years of age. On rounding the South west Spit the steamer, being under too much headway to turn the sharp angle of the channel ran into the mud Lat CT in backing off she fouled a spar buoy and it is supposed that the chain wound about the propeller, as the vessel stop ped and was unable to move. A divers services will be used tomorrow to as- certain the exact condition before any attempt is made to move her The Kaiser Wilhelm der Crosse has on board 325 saloon, BPS second cabin and 673 steerage passengers.
 At 11;16 p. m. the steamer Wilhelm | der Crosse arrived off the quarantine l station on Staten Island and dropped l her anchor foh the night. The run from where she was aground was | made very quickly.
