United States Senator Davis.
in which there was an ex-
preston of congratulation
upon his improved condition
was one from Gov. Lind. The
governor extended his kind
est wishes to his distinguish
ed colleague and received a
response substantially as fol-
lows:
Give the governor my best

consider him one of the very
best governors the state of
Minnesota has ever had.

political differences prevent

An article in the New York
Independent, which is a
strong supporter of the ad-
ministration. shows the
wretched condition of affairs
in the city of Manila. Cor
ruption and venality are COM
mon among the officials, and
military government is shown
to be inefficient. No fair
minded man can read the ar
tic1e, which is by Harold Mar
tin, without believing that
the truth about the Philip
pines has been kept from the
American people. Now that
the elections are over, and the
Mckinley policy strongly
endorsed, the facts should be
revealed. Let light shine on
the Philippines.

FRIDAY, NOV. 16.
Every candidate

Every candidate on the
democratic state ticket carried
Morrison county by majorities
averaging about 200. Hem
stead for representative car
ried the county over Ferris.
and Jarboe carried it over
Smith. Part of the McKin-
ley electors carried the coun-
ty. and part of the Bryan
electors. About $50 Bryan
ballots were thrown out on
account Of defective marking
and Lind lost a good many
votes for the same reason.

Cecil Rhodes said the Brit
ish flag was a: valuable COM
mercial asset, which showed
the differ ence between the
older England and the new.
Burke, nor Chatham, nor Fox,
nor Peel. nor Gladstone, never
would have said such a thing.
In the United States, there
are not wanting these who be-
lieve the flag represents busi-
ness and commercef frst,andis
secondly a symbol of liberty,
such liberty as is left after
the desires of business are
secured. Not onlv the Minne-
apolis Tribune, but several
other republican papers, say
that it is a mistake to give in
depen dence to Cuba and that
this country should annex the
island, Notwithstanding it's
solemn promises to the con-
trary. The argument ad-
vanced is entirely a business
one. There will be more
money in it for our traders if
we hold Cuba, and we can i'm
pose such tariff or other re-
gulations as will help our mer-
| chants. But that was hardly
why we went to war with
Spain. What contrast there
is between the war to free
Cuba, and the proposition
now put forward that We
should get paid for that which
we professed to do for liber-
tvs sake.

In 1872 the democratic
party was badly defeated, al
most annihilated, and Grant
was triumphantly reelected.
Yet two years after the dem
ocrats elected a majority of
congressman, and four years
after elected S. J. Tilden
president, although the elec-
toral commits STA counted him
out. No man can say now, in
the rapid march of events,
what the main issue will be in
1902, or in 1904. The repub-
1ican party has power now tc
make it's promises good. II
must solve the colonial CUES
ton. and curb the trusts. Not.
withstanding it's great power.
if it goes wrong it will meet
defeat. It has been elected
on the prosperity issue, {
dangerous thing for any party
for failure of prosperity
would be it's condemnation.

Those timid souls who yot-
ed the republican ticket so
there would be more room, so
that we wouldn't be crowded
out of the countrY-may be
reassured. The annual re-
Iort of the commissioner of
the general land office shows
that there are o17, ,135, $50
acres of Uncle Sans land
still open to settlement. Ex-
elusive of this, 154, 725, 1872
acres have been reserved for
forestry and park purposes.
Leaving out Alaska and the
"colonies,' there are still
millions upon millions of
acres awaiting settlement.
No need of enduring the heat,
fevers, noxious insects and
animals of the Philippines,
when one-fourth of the state
of Washington is ready for
the man with the hoe, no need
of risking health and strength
in the tropics when one-ffth
of Nebraska's domain, and
ten per cent Of Minnesota s
fertile soil, are ready to be
tickled with the plow, to
laugh in abundant harvest. A
part Of the hundreds of mil
lions being expended in the
Orient would build good roads
all over the United States.
would reclaim the arid lands
of the southwest, would abol-
ish the slums IN our great
cities, and would contribute
far more to the sum of human
happiness than the millions
expended in carrying trade
to the people of the East
through the medium of the
cannon ball.

The Great Northern rail-
road employs over a thousand
Japanese section men in WASH
ington, and has besides 1900
Japanese doing construction
work. The Japaneseare more
docile and work for much less
than the white men. In the
great saw mills at Port Blake
ley more than 200 Japanese
are employed, and it is only a
question of time when the
Orientals will prevail in the
other mills. Here is a prob
lem, a big one, for Mckinley.
