That OIeO Bill.

New Ulm News.
The tricks of the politicians are wonder
full to behold. The Tawney oleo bill,
which was to tax oleomargarine out Of
existence, was never intended to pass
congress, but was helped along in the
house to save Demagogue Tawney and
others in this state, and to offset the in
famous pine, lumber tariff of 81 per 1000
feet Oleo was to blind and hold the
farmers, who suffer from the lumber
tariff, and the lumber tariff stands to
hold the vote Of the pine land ring.

TEN MILLION DOLLARS WORTH
OF RAIN

TEN MILLION DOLLARS WORTH
OF RAIN.
The soaking rains of the past few days
have saved the situation for the farmers
in the greater portion of Minnesota Be-
fore the showers fell there was small
prospect Of any crops at all in many dis
tricts, some of the southern counties be-
ing exceptions to the general disastrous
conditions caused by the prolonged
drought The small grains such as
wheat, oats, rye and barley seemed to
be almost total loss. Of hay there was
but trace and the fodder question had
become a serious problem, so serious In
fact that hundreds of farmers In despair
of being able to feed their cattle through
the winter had commenced to sell them.
The stock yards were overcrowded with
farmers cattle, which brought absurdly
low prices because of the forced sale and
high price of fodder.
But the rains have changed all this.
Some Of the small grain will give a fair
yield; flax is safe and potatoes and corn
will be a good average crop. Of fodder,
the crop will be ample, even without the
possible second crops of hay, to enable
farmers to winter-feed their stock and
keep them until next years grass.
1t is safe to say that s1O,OOO.0OO worth
of rain has fallen over Minnesota during
the past four days, and it fell alike upon
the just and the unjust. bringing blessing
to all.

test, to coercion into the pursuit Of
policy which has already proven fatal,
and which is openly repudiated by the
intelligence and enlightenment of the
country, presents to the G l 0 e no valid
claim to having its DEGREES respected,
even though it purports to give voice to
the convictions of the Democracy.
1t lies in the mouth of no Democrat
who accepts the dictation which forced
the 16 to 1 folly into his national plat
form tc say aught against the accepted
control OF the Reput lical national con-
vention by Senator H NIL. cL Ohio That
control at least led in directions which
pointed toward possible success. The con-
troll Of William ]. Bryan, which, under
threat of withdrawal, forced the free
silver faIsehood down the throat of the
Kansas City convention, points to a path
way already travelled over in the journey
to Democratic defeat and disaster.
This pathway the Clio b refuses to
follow IT refuses to support the candi-
dates of a convention which seeks
through cowardIy evasion to win the sup
port OF those whom 1t feared to openly
challenge What does 1t matter whether
the frenzy of free coinage finds express
sion III the first or in the last paragraph
of the Kansas City platform? 1t is there.
The party stands committed to its en-
bodiment in the financial policy of the
nation. If it was a false and dangerous
doctrine to assert in 1896, when the ma
tional finances and the business interests
of the country were comparatively I'M
settled, it is a hundred times more so
today. when the country has adjusted it
self to conditions which have forced sill
yer from all recognized position as a
monetary metal
1t Is necessarily at great sacrifice Of
Individual preference, as we'll as of sell
fish business interest, that the G b
is forced to assume this attitude toward
the DEGREES and the candidates Of the
national convention of its party. But
there does not appear to be any other
course left open to a responsible public
journal whose chief mission lies In the
PRONUNCIATION and sustainment of the po-
litical and economic philosophy which first
found expression in our public life
through the founder Of the American
Democracy. Its advice and warning were
repudiated In Kansas City, as in Chi
cago. Let those who claim the credit Of
having forced the party to the reasser-
ton Of the free silver faIlacy also as
sumo the responsibility. The G l 0 b e de-
clines participation in either.

THE STATES SWAMP LAND AGREE

mENTs
Next In Importance and value to the
grant made by congress to the state of
Minnesota In aid of schools is the grant
Of all the swamp lands within the state.
This grant was made by an act Of con-
gress Of March Il, 1860, and under its
provisions Minnesota will ultimately re-
lands.
But 1t must be matter Of regret to
the citizens of Minnesota that the gen.
eral land office and the interior depart
ment of the government at Washington
have not seen fit to give to this state all
the benefits which it should justly have
received under the generous act of con-
gress. Instead Of adopting broad. lib
eral policy in carrying out the provisions
Of the grant, the government land off,
Gals have, as rule, pursued illiberal,
diIatory tactics In the adjustment of the
states swamp land claims, and have sys-
tematicalIy rendered decisions against the
states claims whenever 1t was possible to
do SO. In cases where there existed q
doubt. Minnesota has not been given the
benefit Of the doubt.
Such treatment of commonwealth is,
to say the least, impolitic and undeserv-
ed. The states just claims for swamp
lands are made under the free grant Of
congress on behalf Of all the people Of
the state, and the lands so acquired are
the amendment to the state constitution
adopted in 1881, all the swamp lands then
owned or thereafter to accrue to the state.
except such as had been disposed of, were
set apart for the benefit of the public
schools and state institutions in equal
proportions, so that these lands are pre-
served for the sole benefit of the educa-
tionaI and charitable institutions of the
state as inviolably as are the school lands,
and are the heritage of all the people.
In presenting its claims for swamp
lands to the general land office, the
state does so in the name Of all the people
Of Minnesota, and is therefore entitled to
higher and greater consideration than
when such a claim is presented by a
single individual. No sordid motive can
enter into the claims of the state, and at
no time does it seek to, obtain lands to
which it IS not justly and equitably en-
titled under the congressional grant.
And, further than this, the state of
Minnesota, rather than enter into undig-
nified contests with the general land Of
flee as to the character of the lands to
which 1t was entitled under the grant
whether or not they were swampy or non
swampy-entered into a solemn agreement
and stipulation with the secretary of the
interior shortly after the date Of the
grant, to accept the plat and field notes of
the United States survey as the basis for
the determination of the character of
the land, and upon which the states
swamp land claims were to be adjusted.
To this compact the state has stead
tasty remained faithful. even under con-
ditions which would have warranted II
to break it. The state has consistently,
maintained the decisive character of the
evidence furnished by the government
own surveyors, and has never questioned
their accuracy. When the major portion
OF legal subdivision has been found by

Something About Medicine.
Bear these things in mind when giving
medicine:
Read the label on the bottle
Shake the bottle before you pour 1t
Even If thebot tie is marked, 1t is safer
to mark the dose in a properly marked
glass.
A medicine glass should be in every
house. One can be bought for a few
cents.
Medicine ordered three times a day
should be given at 10 a. m, p. m. and
6 p. m.
If the direction Is that 1t is to be
taken every four hours. give it at q.
| M. II noon, p. m. and p. m.
Do not give medicine in the night I'M
| less, the doctor has told you distinctly
| to do so.
Iron is always best taken after food.
| Quinine should be taken before food.
Hot milk and coffee disguise the taste
anything else. Pour a little coffee and
milk into the cup first, then the OIL then
more coffee, and one will hardly know
| he has taken the medicine.
