HOWEVER treacherous Aguinaldo
may be, he cannot be compared to the
traitors masquerading in this country
as the Anti-Imperialist league. From
the very opening of the rebellion in
the Philippines these opponents of the
administration have been giving com
fort and aid to the enemy. Now they
are planning to come to the relief of
the captured chieftain and prevent if
possible the signing of the manifesto.
of the government, by which it is
hoped to end the war. These twentieth
century copperheads have cost this
country dearly in lives and money and
we believe the government should turn
its attention to them, if only for a
brief space. AguinaIdo cannot be
accused of treason, for he has never
been citizen of the United States.
but these political harlots with head
quarters in Boston claim the rights of
and can therefore be
reached *'=r-' .y~-s.~.

A NEW LINE.

Minnesota Rural Telephone Company Has
Been Organized. 4
Tuesday at Wyanette, a company
was organized under the name of The
Minnesota Rural Telephone company.
Its object is thezconstructio and main
tainance of a system Of rural telephone
lines and exchanges capitalized at
1926, 900 with shares S25 each. The CON
struction of a line from Princeton to
Wyanett and Green Lake will be be-
gun at once, or as soon as material can
be gotten together, and will be com
pleted in time to give the Green Lake
campers connection with Princeton at
the first of the season, the intention
being to arrange for phone on the
camp grounds for their convenience
A standard rate of ten cents will be
made for all long distance points on
this system. Lines will be extended
in all directions. where farmers and
others manifest desire for lines. For
the benefit of the Isanti county farmers
who have business at Cambridge the
line will be pushed to that point as
soon as possible. Also a line from
Princeton through Greenbush to Glen
dorado is under contempt as we'll
as Spencer Brook and Bradford. This
will be OF great benefit to the farmers
in the way of business as well.as So
cially. Officers for the ensuing year:

treasurer; c. Johnson, secretary

THE GLOBE IS RIGHT.

Who will history place next to
Dewey? Not Sampson on the strength
of the battle of Santiago. He cannot
be the hero of a function which he was
unable to attend. Gen. Grant is never
spoken of as the hero of the March to
the sea-" although he planned it, even
to the utmost detail. When the band
plays marching Through Georgia"
the people always think of Sherman.
All honor to Grant for the conception
of the greatest military movement in
modern warfare. All honor to Samp-
son for his plan to capture the feet OF
Cervera. But the capture was made
by others. Who was the hero of San
tiago and of the Spanish war next to
Dewey? Let US go back few months.
Who brought that bloodhound of the
Sea- the Oregon, from San Francisco
to Key West, and at once announced
himself ready for action? Who was it
who had steam up on the morning of
July 8, when the Spanish feet moved
out of the harbor and made that mem
orable dash for liberty and life? The
battle of Santiago was won by the fleet
in conjunction, each one doingshis best,
but if there is to be sitting OF deeds-if
there is to be a weighing Of effects in
determining this hero business, then
will the Oregon appear as the one
great factor in the destruction of the
Spanish fleet, and Capt. Clark, if great
achievements are to be taken into ac-
count must stand next to Dewey. in

Just one week from the time these
lines are being read the legislature
will be in the closing acts OF its career
and preparing to go home. Seldom at
the opening of legislative session has
there apparently been SO little OF con-
sequence to do, as when the present
session began. But. the present legis-
lature has developed business that's
of more Importance to the State and to
the tax payers than has any previous
like body for several years: And a
record has been made upon which the
Republican party can safely go before
the people. Chief of such measures
are the creation Of tax commission

The Sentinel has again circulated one of it's premature Authorizations. Several weeks ago it heralded the news far and wide that the s.

Now the Sentinel has glanced again at it's di- vining star and states that a Frisco official took a ride over the road.
 It is pretty generally understood in railroad circles that the s. M. & A. is an Illinois Central property, which will reach south to Memphis and con- meet with the system east of the Mis- sissippi. AS an astrologer the Senti- nel is bowling joke.-Poplar Bluff Citizen.

STRUCK WHILE CROSSING.

AS Lee Edwards, the son of Hez. Edwards, living near Rosa, Indepen- dence county, was leaving town We'd nesday morning about nine o'clock upon his return home, he came very near suffering a serious accident in crossing the Iron Mountain tracks on Pine street.
 The particulars of the accident as told by Tom Kelley, the crossing watchman and the overturned boy, differ materially. The former claims that the boy drove his team of mules, which were attached to farm wagon, astride the switch post, where they were run into by a car thrown down the Pond-Decker switch.
 Edwards says that the watchman beckoned him on across the tracks and that as he crossed the last going north, car was run down on him, forcing him to one side of the regular crossing to save his team. The car struck the wagon breaking it in sev- eral places and threw the young man out upon the ground skinning his arms and legs, but did him no serious injuries. The wagon was taken to a repair shop and claim filed against the railroad company.
