IT is not lack of confidence. but over
confidence, that the Republicans have
to fear this year. Republicans can not
see any possible reason why any man
should vote the Democratic ticket, and
therefore argue that Republican sue
cess is assured. Therefore, thew saw.
1T will be all right any way, so what's
the use OF worrying?" That would be
all right we're there no Democrats who
hold party above country. Unfortu-
nately' however, there are thousands
OF Democrats who would vote for
Bryan and Lind if they knew it would
throw the whole country back into the
quagmire where Mckinley found it in
1896. Let every Republican vote the
Republican ticket, and Minnesota will
begin the Goth century with a Republi-
can majority of not less than $4,000.

THERE is no more aggressive rock
ribbed Republican in Minnesota than
1: A. Caswell, of the Anoka Herald,
and the UNION cordially endorses Mr..
L. +. Knappen, the political editor of
the Minneapolis Journal, when he says,
''The Osakis Lake Revie1r does not
honor itself in referring to Caswell, of
the Anoka Herald as a :pin-headed
rooster Mr.. Caswell incurs this
frightful appellation because he has
seen fit to say that he is not pleased
with each and every part of the Re-
publican State ticket. Mr. Caswell,
by plainly expressing his position,
proves himself as good, if not better,
Republican than those editors who,
while far from being pleased, have
seen fit to write nauseating eulogies on
the whole ticket. Mr. Caswell has
shown that he is the editor of his own
paper. His decision to support the
whole ticket on general principles will
carry all the more weight because he
was independent and fearless enough
to say that in his opinion a mistake
had been made. The only way to pre-
vent repetition Of mistakes is fear
lessly to point them out when made.

The best advice that can be given
Republicans is ''save your ammunition
until the game gets in sight," then, as
Roosevelt said at San Juan Hill, ''Give
'em hell, boys" We don't know vet
whom the Democrats will nominate for
State offices, and we don't know what
KIND OF promises they will make, or
how they explain the non-fulfllment
OF those they made two years ago.
Therefore we don't know what to say.
There is plenty of time, and sufficient
unto the day. is the opportunity thereof.
Hold your ammunition. ~ ..

IT isn't for Mr.. Bryan, or even for
President Mckinley to say what shall
be the "paramount' issue of the cam
palgn. The people have already de.
cided that it shall be prosperity, ex-
pansion and sound money. The first
and last we have, and the second speaks
for itself. The man or party that gets
in the way OF the march of expansion
is going to come out of the melee a
good deal the worse for, the expert.
ment., The Republican party doesn't
have to stand for expansion. Expan,
sion stands for itself.

Stumpage of the Foley Bean Lands.
VIM. Cundy of Anoka was in the

tier He is the father of E. W. Cundy,

some scattering pine and an immense
amount of the best hard wood. Cundy
junior will build mill on the site of
the old trading post, some thirty miles
north of Milaca, and will manufacture
the lumber at that point.

Cundy, II am going to do something
that I never did before, and that is

also an expansionist, and that is the

COMMENT Is NECESSARY.

Over in the St Cloud district the Republicans
want Judge searle reelected without opposi-
tion in order to keep the Judiciary out OF poll.

district the Republicans have nominated a
candidate against Judge Holland and have

Judge Holland is Democrat, Comment IS
unnecessarily Herald. -&% =
Comment is necessary. In the first
placeTD. B. 3Searle is one of the ablest
jurists in the State. The number of
cases where he has been reversed by
the supreme court are few and far be-
tween. Back in 1885, when the &Sev-
enth judicial district was given an ad-
ditional judge.: Mr.. L. L. Baxter, a
staunch Democrat, was appointed by a
Republican governor. In 1886 Judge
Baxter was a candidate for. election,
and the dyed-in-the-wool Republicans
of the district nominated Mr.. John F.
Williams, of Fergus Falls. At that
time the Seventh judicial district was
overwhelmingly Republican. Many
OF the independent Republicans and
several of the Republican papers of
the district, among them the UNION,
heartily supported Judge Baxter, be-
cause they deemed him better qualified
for the position than his opponent, and
because they thought it unwise and
impOlitic to turn down an able and
fearless Judge, who had been ap-
pointed by a Republican governor,
simply on account of his political be-
liefs. Judge Baxter was elected by
large majority-between three and
four thousand, we believe. Since then
Judge Baxter has twice been reelected
without opposition. Judge Searlo was
appointed to the bench in 1887, was
elected in 1888, and reelected in 1894
without opposition. The people of the
Seventh judicial district have wisely
concluded to keep the judiciary out of
politics. and Judge Searle will be
again reelected this fall without op-
position.

THE Democratic State central co,,

THE Democratic State central COM
mlttee has elected Geo. S. Garfield
secretary. This, we suppose, creates
vacancy in the Office of managing
editor of every Democratic paper in
the State, since Garfield was in fact

OF the Republican editors of the State
that they never thus surrendered
themselves to the .employe of any

THE greatest Swedish paper pub
lished in Minnesota, Srensko Folkets
7S0ning, has come out strongly for the
Republican ticket and gives publica-
tion to some excellent reasons for its
prediction that Van SAINT and the
whole Republican ticket will be elected.
Among other things, all OF them good
things, too, 1Sdning says:
John Lind is in the position of bank ex-
aminer who has to give a suspected bank a
clean bill Of health. He has examined the
Republican administration Of this State in the
past and found it all right. John has done his
work and will be permitted to retire gracefully
while the good and faithful servants get their
reward.

ting it as anything we have seen.
