Do you believe that James Gray, as
mayor of Minneapolis, has raised the
standard of efficiency in tile police de-
partment and has kept the city free
from crime during his administration?
Do you believe that for young man
without political experience he has
done remarkably well? Do you be-
lieve he has given good business
administration and discharged his du-
ties faithfully? If you. do, re-elect
him by a decisive majority.

The Democracy of Dakota county

it ought to prove a winner without an
exception. T. P. Moran is again in
the race for Judge of Probate and D.
II. Hyland for sheriff. They are both
capable and worthy gentlemen and are
worthy of most liberal support from
the hands of their fellowmen. It goes
without saying that they will be re-

EAGERLY AWAITING THE RESULT.

The entire world is interested in this
presidential contest. People from afar
are anxiously awaiting the result.
They understand the Importance of
the issue to be decided next Tuesday.
A great principle is at stake. This
is a battle Of the masses against the
classes; of democracy against splutoc-
racy, Of republicanism against impe-
rialism. The Dublin Freeman's Jour-
nal has q clear conception of it when
it says:
Is the thing called Imperialism to
be, for the future, the ruling spirit of
the great nations of the world? Is
grabbing other peoples lands and ter
ritories to be the note Of progress of
the new century? England, which
freed Bulgaria and Greece, has pro-
nounced in favor of Boer slavery. Will
America, which went through one of
the greatest commissions recorded in
history for the sake Of the negroes of
the South, return to place and power
an administration whose principles
and practices are as much the abro-
CATION of human and national rights
as We're the principles and practices
of George the Third and Lord North?
Will the free republic in the West,
while the declaration that created a

dependence Hall in Philadelphia, fol
low in the footsteps of a country

During the campaign Of 1892 when
Adlai e. Stevenson was the running

HONEST JOHN LIND.


In his speech at st. Paul on Septem-
Der 6, when accepting the re-nomina.
ton for governor of Minnesota, hon
est John Lind uttered the following
noble words which deserve to be res
membered by the electors of the state
next Tuesday:
"Wit4 no aim but the honor of our
great statgand the welfare of our peo-
pie, with no guide but the law and my
conscience, have administered the af-
fairs of the Office which hold without
fear and without favor. This is all
that can promise for the future
John Lind stands upon the record he
has made during the past two years,
and upon that record he goes before
the people for endorsement. In view
of the fact that he stood solitary and
alone among the officials of the state,
being the only candidate elected on.
the fusion ticket, it is astonishing that
he has effected so many reforms in so
short a time in the face of SO much op-
position from the officials of the dom
inant party. ~"
During his administration John Lind
has endeAvored to discharge the duties
of governor for the best interests Of
the state, and the result Is that not a
cent of the public funds has been lost
or misappropriated-s unprec-
edented in the history of Minnesota,
which has been in the grasp of the Re-
publicans for forty years. In his first
message to the legislature he made
three specific recommendations to les.
sen the burden of taxation on the cit
liens of the state. One was the i'm
position of 1icense fee on foreign
corporations doing business in the
state. another that they be taxed the
same as domestic corporations; and
the third was that the gross earnings
tax on railroad property in the state
be increased to a figure commensurate
with the rate of taxation imposed on
the property of individuals and other
corporations.
The Republican legislature turned a
deaf ear to his recommendations, save
one, and that the least important Of
the three. The Minneapolis Journal,
Republican organ, called on the
members of the legislature to raise
the taxation on railroads, but without
avail. 1t then, by way of threat,
said their constituents would bring
them to account when seeking re-
election.
The Republican organs of the state
the Minneapolis Journal included, now
ask Republicans not to vote for Lind
because he is opposed to McKinley's
policy of Imperialism and has de-
nounced the trusts which are vora-
ciously preying on the masses of the
people.
The Republican voters however,
cannot be convinced that it is to their
interest to turn down John Lind for
Sam Van SAINT, a man whose legisla-
tive record is not to tier liking. They
believe he has made a splendid govern
or and is worthy of their endorsement
The Democrats, Populists and Silver
Republicans consider him an ideal gov
ernor and will vote for him to man.
His election is beyond doubt, and his
majority over Van SAINT will surely
exceed that over Rustis. His majority
in 1898 was 2O,4OO. This time 1t will
be. more, as he has been tried and
found to- be the best governor since
the admission Of Minnesota as a state.

Gen. Macarthur TO make an extra effort
10 crush the Filipino insurrection. seere-
tary Root promises Gen. Macarthur that
he will not be hampered by orders from

These orders are the result OF the re-

gents. From now on they are to be Civ
en- no. rest.
Steps have been taken by the govern
ment for the suppression of the Filipino
insurrectionary Junta at Hong Kong. and
IL is likely that they will be successful
The initiativstoward that end has been
taken by the secretary OF war, who, in
communication TO the secretary of
state, has asked that the attention OF the
British government be called to the un-
lawful acts of the Junta az Hong Kong.
Mr.. Root i'm his letter to Mr.. Hay says
that correspondence captured by the
American forces I'm the Philippines shows
that Hong Kong is the principal base
OF operations of the Filipino insurgents
aud that the Junta at that place is di-
recting the military campaign in the
Philippines.
He maintains also that the members OF
the Junta do not confine themselves TO
the usages permitted by neutral govern
ment, and therefore expresses the desire
that the state department take the neces-
sary steps through the British govern
ment. Hong Kong being British port 10

He expresses the hope that the state

There was plenty Of buying, and some

market such az American Tobacco. Man

day.
The market stood up quite steadily
against the selling, but the spontaneous
advance in prices was checked and the
markets showed an approach to quiet.
