GRAIN INSPECTION
Corruption and Favorftism
Rampant Under Republic
can Rule Ended.
The Honesty and Efficiency
Shown by Mr.. Reishus'
Administration
Has Won the Unqualified APP
prevail of Farmers and
Dealers Alike.

Two years ago John Lind as can
didate for Governor made the un-
equivocal charge that the administra
ton of the grain department of this
state under Republican rule had been
incompetent and unfair, that in the
matter of grades uniformity had given
way to favoriti:m and that in the
treatment accorded the producers and
small shippers, Justice had been prac-
tically lost sight of.
This accusation, which no one to-
day will honestly undertake 20 refute,
he followed up with the promise that,
if elected, he would correct existing
abuses and pursue a policy having
for it's object the establishment of
uniformity and stability of grades at
all stages of the market and in all
seasons of the year-a policy which
would give the same grade in the fall
when the grain is in the hands of Ehe
producer as in the winter or spring,
when it is largely in the hands of the
dealers; a policy which would give the
same grade when wheat is depressed
and low as when wheat is doomed
and high; policy which would give
to the producer a grade as high as
the character and condition of his
product would warrant and to the
dealer grade no lower than the quail
ity of his store demanded.
In other words, John Lind promised
equality to all, discrimination against
none That this promise has been
faithfully fulfilled the following
significant comparison will suffice to
show.
During the present administration
criticism has been lodged against the
work of the department just as it
was directed against the system of in
spection under Mr.. Clausen, but with
this remarkable difference:
Under Republican rule every COM
plant came from the producers and
the independent shippers; under the
administration Of the present inspec-
tor, Mr.. Reishus, the complaints have
been confined almost exclusively to
those having their inception in the
editorial Offices Of the Republican
press. = ~--- : p .= :
Under Clausen, the injustice and in
equality of the inspection was so
fragrant as to result in the holding of
indignation meetings throughout the
farming districts all over the state;
under Reishus, the cordial treatment
and approval which the department
has received at the hands of both
growers and Dealers, signifies that. in
spite Of the difficult character Of the
inspection during his term, the work
of grading mas proceeded with salts
faction and success

man. If, say two more men were to
be appointed ant assigned to night
duty in the various railroad yards,
with power to make arrests, the ques-
ton of shortages at this terminal
point would soon be reduced to*a min
1mum and o.Ay the carelessness of
the shipper could then be reasonably
suggested as I, cause for alleged short
ages. While the care and protection
given in this respect is better now
than ever before in the history Of the
department, still the suggestion is Of
fered in the best of faith, with only
the hope Of still further improving a
service that all who are interested in
naturally feel pride.
The carelessness Of the shipper is,
after all, the main reasod<for these al
legged shortages. Too often grain is
put into old and poorly coopered cars
and when such cars arrive at their
destination leaks will be found per-
haps at both ends or at the side or
end doors. So long as this lack of
care in the selection of cars is shown
we must have complaints from the
outside and I would again urge upon
the shipper the attention which this
demands.
The question of sealing, heretofore
referred to, is an important one. In
referring to it briefly at 3his time l
would urge upon every mill and ele-
vator loading out grain the necessity
of keeping a record of the seals used
on each car. 1t would go far in as
sisting this department in the way of
tracing seals to the different destina-
tons.
The positions of claims agent and
scale expert, both important to this
department, are in the he Ids of COM
petent and worthy persons. So it can
be said of all who are connected with
me in the work, whether it be in the
office or in the various mills and ele-
vators where the weighers are en-
gagged. I have had. their hearty CO.
operation and good will and together,
I feel, we have accomplished much
that will prove of value to the service
in which we are giving our time and
zeal. That is our ambition at least.

ing information:

the department since it's organization.

surplus and deficiency.
Table III.-Sources of revenue.

Lind was an early recruit to the hnan.
cial policy espoused by Senator Teller
and other Silver Republicans. In 1895
the Democratic and Peoples party NOM
mated him for governor and he made
splendid run, David NJ. Slough defeat
ing him by ouay a sn1a-. a4s-5v~~, 90
about 5000 votes. In the spring Of
1899, when President Mckinley called
for volunteers to defend the national
honor and avenge the destruction Of
the Maine. John Lind, at the sacrifice
of his law practice, rendered his serv-
ices to Governor Clough in any capac-
ity in which he might be available.
Governor Clough, at the request of
Colonel Bobleter, in command of the
Twelfth Minnesota, made Mr.. Lind
regimental quartermaster, with the
rank Of first lieutenant. His record as,
quartermaster was attested by his pop.
ularity with the regiment, which had
q chance at Chattanooga to compare
with other standards the efficiency Of
Mr.. Lind's arduous labors in keeping
the men we'll equipped and provisioned.
It was lille the Twelfth regiment was
encamped at Camp Thomas, Chicka-
manga National park, that the Demo-
cratic, Peoples and Silver Republican
parties, in state convention, unan-
imously nominated Mr.. Lind for
governor. It was his desire, after
the defeat of 1896, not to again
enter the field of politics, but SO unan-
imous was the call, and so insistent
were the friends who had supported
him so warmly in previous campaigns,
that Mr.. Lind at last put aside his de-
sire for political retirement and con-
sented to make the race, subject to the
necessary limitations of his military
service. With the surrender of Santi-
ago and the subsequent return of the
Minnesota troops from the South, Mr..
Lind was enabled to make two short
series of speeches in few of the cities
and towns of the state. There has
rarely been such series of popular
demonstrations of personal admiration
and sympathy. These tours, brief as
they were, were splendid auguries of
the magnificent vote which the men of
Minnesota gave him on election day.
This is the public and political ca.
reer, epitomized, of the man who has
fought his way, despite rebuffs and
temporary reverses, to attain success at
last and full realization of the fact
that she cannot appreciate victory who
has not suffered defeat Governor
Lnd's energies have not been spent
alone in politics and public affairs. He
has had a lucrative practice at the bar
and had not sacrificed it in the public
service. New Ulm is the center of a
thriving farming community, prettily
situated in the picturesque valley of the
Minnesota, and is such a town as might
well be selected for the home of man
of Governor Llnd's character-earnest,
faithful and unaffected. Governor
Lind has been identified with some of
the best institutions of New Ulm. He
has served as.direct or in the Brown
County bank, and was one Of the COM
mittee of five New Ulm men who had
charge Of the construction of the Min
neapolis, New Ulm and Southwestern
railroad and other enterprises that have
materially benefited his home town.,

HENRY TRUELSON.

Henry Truelson, Peoples
Party candidate for congress from
the Sixth district, emigrated to
the United States from the north
western part of Germany in
1866 and located in the upper
peninsula of Michigan. In 1869 he
came to Duluth, where he served as al.
derman for term of eight years. In
1881 he was elected sheriff Of St. Louis
county for a two years. term. Later
on he was appointed as member Of
the board of public works and served
az it's president for q term of three
years. In 1896 he was elected mayor
Of the city Of Duluth, was reelected
in '98, and served until March, 1900.
As a public officer Mr.. Truelson's best
efforts have always been in behalf Of
the people at large, to protect them
against special privileges and corporate
power, and to secure justice for all.
This is especially exemplified by his
fight against the gas and water COM
panies, whereby he saved the people of
Duluth upwards of million dollars.
