by 200.
LONG PRAIRIE, MINI, Oct. 15.-Todd
county Democrats are we'll organized. do
ing very effective work for the national
congressional, state and county tickets.
Mr. Bryan will reduce McKinley's ma jor-
ity $50 to 200. Mr.. Lind will carry the
county by 200 majority. Mr.. Truelson
will reduce Morris majority by 100 or
more. Of the county ticket We will elect
three, possibly four. This claim 1 con-
s:der very conservative one Four years
ago farmers who had mortgages on their
farms were frightened into voting for
Mckinley. Today these same farmers tell
the G. o. P. they will vote as they please.
They are going to do it too. We have
many foreigners in this county. There
are many issues other than the money
question that confront them. They have
passed up that matter and taken up more
serious ones, and will vote accordingly.
Very respectfully

At Hallock the largest hall in the city

for ten minutes, where the governor
speke to a crowd of several hundred
At Warren not one-third of the people
could get into the hall where he was
escorted by the Warren band and
torchlight procession of several hundred.
AT each station the governor was greet

an Increased Majority.

Gov. Lind Will Garry 1t Again by
sn Increased Majority.
MANKATO. Mimi, Oct. 17-Four Years
aso Mckinley carried Blue Earth coun-
ty, by over 300. I am convinced of the
fact that if he does carry the county this
year, 1t will be by a majority less than
200 I, however, expect that he will not
carry it at all.
In regard to GOV. Lind, he carried out
county two years ago, by something over
13O. He will carry it this year, by
majority which will not be less than
250. The balance of the state ticket will
get much larger vote than two years
ago.
AS to the congressional fight 1t will be
close between McCleary and Mathews in
this county, Mathews very probably will
carry it by asmall mejority
All minded Republicans concede
the election of oLr entire legislative tick
ct; and it is absolutely certain that some
of our county officials will also be
elected.
Blue Earth county has never been in
such good condition before, and the
greatest harmony prevails here No
county can boast of a larger number Of
enthusiastic and unself1sh workers Yours
very truly,

that the vote for our candidate for coii-

Gov. Lind VIII Make InrOads Into
This Republican County.

ms republican County.
JACKSON. Oct '16 The campaign in
this county is proceeding nicely, and the
Democratic committee is very active
throughout the county, especially in the
townships.
Nothing definite can be said as to the
probable outcome of the county election
for the reason that in July last we had
a county seat fight here, and the county
seat question will enter more or less into
the election of the county officers.
The county is Republican by 400 or 500
normally, but we are in hopes OF electing
at least four county Cfticers.
Gov John Lima will poll a gcod vote
in this county, though not enough to
overcome the Republican strength, and
will fall short perhaps 100 votes behind
Van SAINT.
Mr.. Mathews, the congressional NOM
inee, will run ahead of the national tick
ct in this county at this election Me
Cleary will run 300 ahead of Mathews.
Mckinley will carry the cornty by

Mckinley.

Mckinley.
MONTEVIDEO, Mimi, Oct 15-Chip-
pewa county will give Lind at least 200
majority. Mckinley will in all probable
ity carry the county.
The fight between McCleary and Math-
ews, will be close, and it is doubtful
which will get the larger vote.
For the legislature, the Democratic
candidate has withdrawn, owing to the
Populists persisting in running a man
against him to divide the vote. This
gives the Republicans the best chance.
The local county ticket will be sur
prise party.
A very even vote will be cast on both
sides in many cases. The Democrats
will make considerable gain as party
over previous campaigns. Montevideo
City, will be a small majority Demo-
cratic. Clara City, also will be majori-
ty Democratic;' other villages in the
county may be found Democratic. lie
outlying townships will supply whatever
majority Mckinley gets.

MORA, Oct. 19-Kanabec county In 1898
cast for governor 536 votes, of which John
Lind received 347, or little better than
to 1 for Eustis. This year we expect to
cast close to LOCO votes, and the impartial
observer comedies the count to Lind. The
local Republicans are not doing much for
Van SAINT, as the leaders have political
fences of their own to look after, and to
support Van SAINT does not help their
causes. The county has been normally
Republican, made SO by the Scandinavian
vote. Since John Lind has dared TO be-
come a Democrat. and through the in1u-
ence exerted by one Of the leading Swed-
ish newspapers, many OF the Swedes
are breaking away ana are becoming
strong supporters of Lind and Bryan, and
the Democratic principles, and for the
first time in the history of Kanabec
county the Democrats have put Up a
county ticket, with bright prospects Of
success at the polls in November. From
the present outlook, Lind and Bryan will
carry the county. and possibly the whole
state ticket for the Democratic party will
be indorsed.

Kruger was secretly taken at O'Clock

The reason given for Mr.. Krugers en-
barkation is that he feared the Eoers here

refugees against Mr.. Kruger for fleeing
from the country IS very strong. He
left the governors house in hired car
riage. accompanied by DIR. Haymann,

Engine and Elephant

In certain parts of India railroad
engineers have many difficulties to en-.
counter. some of them more amusing
to read about than to experience. Oh
one such difficulty, an exchange tells
the following story:
A freight train was numbering
along, when a big elephant came out
of the woods and undertook. to butt
the engine off the track. The engi-
let did not like to charge the brute.
for fear Of an upset, and several
times reversed the engine. in the vain
hope that the elephant would take
that IS a sign of surrender, and re-
tire.
Finally the elephant backed into
the engine, and setting its fore feet
firmly between the rails, endeavored
to push the train backwards with its
hinquarters.
The engineer promptly put on all
steam, toppled the elephant over a
small enbankment, and before it
could recover its senses, the train
passed en-.

"As things o are, only the states
can deal effectively with corporations.
That brings up great difficulties, owing
to the intel traffic between the states.
We have got to have a constitutional
amendment to give the national
government proper power. Last June
a constitutional amendment was intro
daced in Congress which would give
the nation full power to deal with
trusts-tO examine into them, to regu-
late them, to rescind their charters
and to suppress them in commoa with
other corporations: to do whatever
seems wise. That easur received
the vote of every Republican but TWO,

cratic vote save four. Now, | ask

you, to compare what has been done

Bryan and Organism.

Mr.. Bryan has progressed in some
things and refrigerated in others: for
instance, he voted for Weaver and a
plentiful supply of greenbacks in '&2
but when the presidential bee buzzed
in his a in '96 he became a worshiper
of silver, and, believing the time was
opportu lie, shouted himself hoarse in
the advocacy of the white metel as tie
standard of mony value for a country
whose trade relations demand that its
currency should pass at par through
out the universe. The advance from
advocating worthless paper to a de-
preciated metal money, however, fail
ed to land the tickle Nebraskan at the
Ion. editor goal, and in 1906, realizing
that his financial theories had but
little repute, he again tackled about
and we find him now tiercely combat
ting a policy which he once advocated
to the extent of enlisting in the army
for the declared purpose of risking
his life to uphold what he now denom-
mates as damnable, albeit he exerted
his utmost influence to have his party's
representatives in Congress confirm a
tr .aty withe the conditions of which
he was then as familiar as he is to-
day.
Ambition should be made of sterner
stuff than such wishy-washy tactics,
and a man who has no more stability
of character than to become so vari-
able would be dangerous indeed as
the executive head of a country whose
destiny ian not be imperiled by being
controlled by such weak hands.
Bryanism. which has absorbed the
Democratic party, is dangerous in the
extreme to our welfare at home and
reputation abroad, and its principal
exponent has so thoroughly proven
his weakness and incompetency that
we can never believe a majority of
our people will jeopardize their own
best interest by voting for such a man
as against a President who has dem
onstrated his ability and whose only
sin has been a wise, conscientious aud
honest administration.-St. Louis

A. Confession on the School Fund.

In another column will be found q
communication from State Auditor
Seibert in regard to the state debt oil
q, 1900, 600 which was formerly a school
fund It is greatly to be regretted,
for the sake of the people Of Missouri
and the school system they value SC
highly, that no better defense can be
made in regard to the sale of school
assets and the substitution of certi.
ficates of debt. Mr.. Seibert's- state.
ment is 3 practical confession. 1t is
a confession that the United States
Government bonds belonging to the
public schools were sold by a Demo.
cratic state administration and re
placed with state certificates of indebt.
edness. On these certificates the tax.
payers Of Missouri are meeting the
the annual interest, chiefly + per cent,
and in no eAse less than ). per cent.
1t is truly deplorable that the school
fund is gone, every dollar of it, and
that nothing remains of il but a debt
that taxpayers are carrying.
Mr.. Seibert struggles to p~alliate the
case. He lets the truth out by driblets.
He seeks to implicate Republican add
ministratiOns though there has bee n
none in Missouri for twenty-eig. t
years. But any m a take his su-
missions and figures and arrive al ,..e
truth Of the case. The school fund
has been looted precisely as. the
Globe-Democrat stated. 1t no. longer
represents a dollar in cash 1t is
purely a debt on which interest is col
lected annually Or semi-annually, and
when the bebt is paid the taxpayers of
this plundered state must pay the
principal, just as they r now paying
the interest. Mr.. Seibertfs confession
sweep away the last hope that any Of
the school fund might have escaped
conversion into debt. 1t once amount
ed to millions in solid assets that
yielded interest and could be sold for
cash. Nothing remains now but certi-
ficates Of debt that the people Of
Missouri must discharge principal
