The genial Captain Van SAINT is re-
ceiving shameful treatment at the
hands Of the leading organs of his own
party. He addressed two meetings in
Minneapolis the other day, and he GER
tainly had the right to expect that the
Republican dailies would report part
at least of what was said by their can
didate for the governorship. But in
point of fact they pay less attention to
his remarks than to those Of the ordi.
nary ward heller. The Journal, for
instance, says of the first meeting, at
which the Captain made the chief adj
dress, that he made a rafting talk
along the line of national issues" At
the other meeting everybody crowded
up AROUND him and insisted upon
handsliake, "after which he cut loose
in his usual effective fashion,"
This is all. No part of any of his
speeches is reported. The Captain
might with good reason protest against
such shabby treatment. If there were
any ladies present at any Of the meet
hgs the Captain said; of course, that
he was glad to noe them and that if the
ladies could vots he would be elected
without doubt. He never fails to
make this witty remark when occasion
offers. This much, at least, the papers
might have reported, even though they
did not care to:quote anything else Of
what their candidate said when he "cut
loose in bis usual effective fashion"

Will somebody please explain. The
Republican campaign managers and
their organs in Minnesota are asserting
that Governor Lind's administration
has weakened the reform forces and his
own chances of reelection. At the
same time these same managers and
organs figure out a majority Of 10000
for their national ticket and not less
than 10000 for Van SAINT in this state
How does it happen, anyhow, that Van
SAINT is going to run some $4,000 votes
behind his ticket, in spite of the fact
that he is so strong and Lind is so weak
among the voters?

The imperialists are in desperate
straits trying to show that Thomas
Jefferson and some others whose mem
cries are revered by all good Democrats
occupied the ground now held by the
Republican party in favor of acquiring
new territory by fair means Or FOUL
One Of the organs now introduces
Stephen A. Douglas as Democrat
whose patriotism caused him to declare
in favor of the Republican policy Of
expansion. An extract is published
from speech delivered by Douglas in
his famous debate with Lincoln, in
which 1.-THE Little Giant said:
"Whenever it becomes necessary in
our growth and progress to acquire
more territory am in favor Of it with
out reference to the question of slavery,
and when we have acquired it will
leave the people free to do as they
please, either to make it slave or free
territory, as they may prefer"
This is quoted by the Republican or.
gan to show that Douglas, though
Democrat, was of one mind with the
latter day imperialists.

Let US, GA the other hand, take a
look at the geographical disposit-
ion of the Democratic ticket. The
Democrats give five nominations
to Potosi, Yiz:' Representative,
Prosecuting Attorney, Treasurer,
Assessor and Surveyor. The south
end of the county gets one NOM
ination, and that for County Judge
only, yet it has the most reliable
party vote. of any section of the
county. The west end is given the
nominstionfor Collector, while the
nomination for Sheriff goes to the
east end. The north end gets nc
representation at all on the Demo.
cratic ticket, and the south end
practically nothing.

Fall Flowing.

The Importance of fall plowing
is not now dwelt upon with as
much emphasis as was formerly
the case. Many farmers regard
the question of fall plowing or
spring plowing as merely one of
convenience, to be done if there is
leisure to do it in the fall, but
which may be postponed until
spring without any disadvantage
in results. There is, however, a
good deal to be said in favor of
fall plowing, and when the ground
is in condition for it, we regard it
as advantageous to do it as much
as possible. One reason for this
is that it helps to distribute the
labor throughout the year better,
and every acre plowed is just that
much of relief when the busy
season opens in the spring. There
is likewise no better means of inn
proving soil texture than by turn
ing it over to expose it to the ac-
ton of the elements during winter.
Where there is a desire to deep
en- the soil by putting the plow
down another inch each year, It
should be done by fall plowing, SO
that the soil'brought up from the
bottom may have the advantage of
this weathering. In soils that are
inclined to be dry, deep fall plow-
ing makes them better reservoir
for water, and saves to the land a
great deal that would run off if
the blowing was deferred until
spring. Where sod is to be brok-
EN- up the fall plowing is distinctly
advantageous, not only because
the sod is disintegrated better by
the longer exposure, but also be-
cause it is one of the most efficient
means of destroying the cut
worms with which lands that have
been in grass are usually infested. !.
Land that is fall plowed, too, Can
be planted earlier in the spring,
and to the corn grower thisis' often
a very decided advantage, moi
only for the sake of an early start
in termination in tho spring, but
also that the crop may certainly
escape the carly frost in autumn.
Fall plowing for the crops of the
following season, however, should
not be done so early, for there II

Local labor leaders who are in

say that he will withdraw about
October I and declare in favor Of the

The reason for Deb's action will be
the recognition on his part of the
presence in the Republican party Of
all the railroad magnates who fought
him to the bitter end in the great
American Railway Union strike of
1894, and the belief that the union OF
