TIDE TURNS TO BRYAN.
MANY Who Held Aloof in 1896 Are
ReCOnciled.

The New York World says That
a majority of the men who left the
democratic party on the currency issue
in 1896 have returned to it seems to be
established by interviews gathered by
telegraph in twenty-five cities from
men who were the leaders of the Palm
er and Mckinley democrats of 1896.
They were asked whether they re-
garded anti-imperiaIism as the para
mount issue, their reasons, what they
thought of the outlook ten weeks be-
fore the election and why and whether
they believed Mr.. Bryan had gained
since making his speech of acceptance.
Several bankers and capitalists in
the contested states of Ohio, Indiana
and Illinois declare for Bryan, regard
ing the menace of empire as more far
reaching than that of free silver, some
of them saying that the silver issue is
dead. On the other hand, few OF the
Palmer men of 1896 hold that ''the cry
of imperialism" is merely an effort to
obscure the money question and will
vote for Mckinley.
Harrisburg contributed the follow
ing EX-Congressman B. F. Myers
"Imperialism is the paramount issue,
because the money standard has been
practically settled and because CO.
lonial policy is necessarily eXtra-con-
stitutional and therefore involves the
exercise of imperial power,
Bryan has Undoubtedly gained since
the delivery of his acceptance speech.
That deliverance has not only brought
to him the body of the gold democrat
ic vote of 1896, but concentrated upon
him the support of anti-imperialists
without distinction of former political
affiliations"

MILLI0NAIRES RUN THE GOVERNMENT

ports of births and deaths. Notices
have been sent to town clerks and
health officers Of villages throughout
the. State informing them that it is
their duty to see that parents and
guardians make the proper reports in
this matter, and that anyone failing to
do so is to he prosecuted under the law.
Town clerks and health officers in turn
who neglect this matter are also to be
prosecuted by the State board. 1t is
doubtful if any law on the statutes is
much more. generally ignored than
this, indeed, its violation has been so
universal that the statistics bearing
on this subject are considered of little
value. Not half of the officers see to

Mile Laos Affairs.

a Washington correspondent says:
An effort is being made by the Mile
Laos delegation now in the city to ad-
just their differences with the depart
ment concerning appraisements on
their reservation. The Indians are
averse to delaying the matter until
spring, it having been decided to send
a special agent to make an appraise-
ment. Gus Beaulieu has been in con-
ference with Senator Nelson on the
subject, with a view to having a bill
presented providing for an appropria-
ton to reimburse the Mile Laos on a
basis to be agreed upon BY. the depart
ment and the Indians. The senator
insists that any agreement shall in
clude a provision that the Indians
shall move at once to White Earth.

PAWN, THEIR TAXES.
The Harch Settlement Shows Good
Increase Over That of the .
# Year 1900. ~
,rofessor Simpson Died Suddenly ir
Chicago Last Week From an
Attack of Pneumonia.

wv lille the annual March settlement
issnot:quite completed at the time of
going to press it is far enough along to
furnish some interesting figures in the
totals. In the first place the total
amount of tax collections from Novem-
Der to March of the current term ex-
coed those of the same period of a year
ago by nearly $4,000, or to be exact,
the figures are Sl7,195.T for 1900 as
against 1898 for 1899. In 1899 the
amount OF current taxes received was
|S9,5l2.G5 4 and the delinquent taxes
amounted to 81, 86O.53. This year the
current taxes in the collection are
81, 567.46 and the delinquent taxes
represent the sum of $2,62s.3l. It will
pc noticed by comparison that the
present year has been {; much better
year for collections, on both current
Fand delinquent taxes and it would ap-
|Ipear from this that the people of this
county are in Il more prosperous con-
tdition than they. were year ago.
Much. of the tax collected came from
people who have recently come to this
county and many OF them had not
raised a full crop until last fall. Now
these men have their land cleared and
the soil Of old Mile Laos will do the
rest, if they handle it properly.

The Business Man.

The business man of these times
would be seriously handicapped with
out his daily newspaper. He must not
only keep posted with regard to the
progress OF events generally. but he
wants particularly the most reliable
and prompt service obtainable in the
way Of commercial news. In this par
ticular, the journal OF Minneapolis
comedies no equal among it's Minnesota
contemporaries. H. V. Jones, the COM
mercial editor of The Journal, is recog-
nized in commercial circles and by the
commercial press of the country as an
authority of high standing upon crop
conditions and upon the commercial
and financial situation of the north
west generally.

Prof. G.R. Simpson Has Finished His
- Work on Earth.
Word was received in this village
last Thursday afternoon OF the death
Of Prof. G. r. Simpson. formerly
superintendent of the public schools
IN this village, which occurred that
day in Chicago. Mr.. Simpson had
gone to Chicago as delegate to- an
educational meeting and while there
contracted pneumonia and died after
short illness. Prof. Simpson was for
three years in charge OF the schools
here and was one Of the best instruc-
stsoessand organizers we have ever had.
g5nder his care the Schools grew to be
recognized as among the best in the
State and the State superintendent Of
public instruction frequently compli-
mented his work. He finally felt that
his health was breaking and aban-
doned teaching to find an employment
that would be less exacting and con-
ining. He travelled some for pub
fishing house and finally located at
Faribault. Rice county, where at the
last election he was elected to the
office of county superintendent of
schools
He was a man of excellent ability,
high moral character and was untir-
ing in his devotion to his work. Dur
ing his stay in this village he won the
friendship and love of every citizen
and his death will be sincerely mourned

After making considerable investi-

that Grand Rapids would be a first

mill. There is limitless supply of
raw material for the manufacture of
lath that can be secured very cheap
while the demand for the finished
product is always good. They have
site in view in the village close to
the railroad track. The only question
remaining now to be settled is the mat
ter of village water. They will likely
appear before the council with a propo-
sition If this should receive favor
able consideration they will locate
there, otherwise they contemplate put

Warden Beutner. Several tribes of
Indians, or, rather families, from Mile
Laos spend the winter every year be-
tween the Eastern Minnesota railroad

ging camps are in operation furnish
them with fresh meat, venison and oc-
casionally moose. The. laws have al,

lated, and never has step been taken
by any game warden, state or local, to
enforce them till this week.

urer of stearns county have asked &c

were audited the first of the year and

incident as the cause for making the
request it is thought that a political
disagreement is back of the whole
thing. . -
