Weyler's death camps in Cuba and
Kitchener's similar places in South
Africa have justly become synonyms of
horror and barbarity the world over.
The United States went to war to free
Cuba largely because of a well-founded
belief that the Spanish commander was
guilty of inhumanity of an appalling type
by herding helpless Cubans in small
camps where they were half starved. i'm
perfectly sheltered, and denied the scant-
est decencies of life. Civilized nations
have been aghast at the mortality re-
ports from the RECOMMENDATION camps of
Kitchener in South Africa, where little
children and helpless women are dying
by thousands under conditions similar
to those of the poor Cubans.
And now comes tie announcement that
the United States officer in command in
Batangas province, in the Philippines,
Gen. ]. Franklin Bell, has established re-
concentration camps there, and has
corralled all the residents therein. To be
sure, the announcement is made that it
is recommendation of mild" kind-but
all the world knows that there is no
mildness in policy which herds men,
women and children as so many cattle
The formal document which announces
our adoption of the policy of Weyler and
Kitchener further says the plans involve
the "unsparing pursuit and punishment
of the natives who act as spies and
traitors to the United States" zone
is to be drawn around the garrisons into
which all the natives are to be compelled
to come, under penalty Of conflscatfon

principle Of conduct on the part of Can

if they have cheaper labor there than
we have here, and abundant raw ma
terial, or are able to import iron
ore from the American side of the
line-that is, assuming of course, that
they or anybody else can mine and ship
iron ore from that district without the
trusts say so-what then?
What is the mission of American pro-
tectionism anyway? We used to be told
that it was designed to build up the in
FAINT industries of the United States.
Now we are told by this ingenious eek
pert" that it's mission is to kill off
other peoples infants.
The truth Of the matter is that our
imperialist politicians are run protection
mad, and that they have secured such
control over the machinery of the Re-
publican party that they have been able
among other things literally to dictate
on the subject of both tariff revision and
reciprocity. There is but one hope of
the American people releasing them
selves from the grip of these bounty
made monsters, and that is through
placing the Democratic party in undis-
puted power in the different departments
of the federal government

G. Judson Webster was a peaceful, law
abiding citizen. In addition to this C
Judson was deacon in his church. He
loved his fellow man and all the fellow
men in the neighborhood thought consid-
cradle of C. Judson.
NOW the neighborhood and the church
members are divided on the question
A can Of lead colored paint, a porch
several friendly neighbors, and a small
boy must be blamed for the dividing.
One morning last week G. Judson Web
ster heard his nickel in-the-s1ot telephone
making considerable noise, and c. Jud-
son, pulling down the receiver, was noti-
fed that death in the family of the
president of the company compelled the
closing of the Office for the day. By
answering the telephone G.. Judson saved
car fare down town and back again.
It was a lovely morning, a real in1ita-
ton of a spring day, and C. Judson, with
several hours on his hands planned to
use up the time. 1t did not look at all
like snow, and as the weather report an
nOunced the approach of a blizzard, c.
Judson knew that the sun would con-
tinue its work for several days.
For weeks, in fact all through the fall
days, c. Judson had planned to paint the
front porch. Here was his first chance,

even the most moon-struck idiot should
know that he was painting the porch
ana not climbing a tree or gravel roof
ing the house, and when the twenty
first neighbor kindly inquired, what
are you doing, painting the porch?" 9.
Judson wanted to mix things other than
the paint.
Say, you condensed lump of worth
lessness," he shouted, as he waved the
paint brush wildly in the air, do you
think | am building an automobile up
mere on the front porch, or don't you
know enough to think about things?
Yes, I'm painting the porch. 1 have been
painting the porch for about two hours.
| hope to get through painting the porch
IN about two more hours. This thing
IN my hand is a paint brush. and that
can holds paint. 1 spread the paint on
the boards with this brush Yes. I'm
painting the porch
The outbreak startled neighbor TWENTY
one, and he hurried back home to tell
his wife to keep the children in the
mouse. He left c.. Judson down easv
py calling his wife far from the little
ones while he explained that the deacon
was out on his front porch in an intoxi-
Gated condition.
While neighbor twenty-one was at
nome rounding up the children C. Judson
continued to work the paint brush About
Inc same time little Willie Perkins
with shining morning face started down
the sidewalk that run by the Webster
mouse. Little Willie was doing the I'm.
willing creep to the school house.
AFTER considerable creeping he pulled
up IN front Of the Webster house. Little
Willie saw c. Judson out on the front
porch working the paint brush. G.
Judson had always greeted Willie with
a cheerful Hello youngster'' in the
past, and Little Willie ignorant Of the
chances, stopped his creep.
Good morning, Mister Judson," lisp
ed Little Willie. What are you dom.
paintin' the porch?''
When Little Willie's mother poured the
last Of the turpentine out of the pint
bottle and wiped a daub Of paint from
Little Willie's upper lip, she ordered the
small boy to dry up his tears at once
and tell what it was all about.

assassernate me, an then L run home"
The lady across the street confirmed
the story told by Little Willie, and now
c. JudsOn's neighbors are thinking of
bringing the matter up at the next meet
ing Of the church directors

THE VINE ROOMS.

Public opinion has found very decisive
in the past few years. 1t has been eff
fective in this and other communities.
and none who has any knowledge of
current events believes that that evil ex-
lists in this community in anything like
the dangerous and offensive form in
which it prevailed during the admins
tration of Mayors Kiefer and Doran.
The practical question for local Iegis-
lators to consider is whether the meas
ure just adopted by the board Of alder
men puts an end to the wine room evil,
without interfering with the right of
decent persons to visit restaurants, and
if they think proper, saloons, and drink
therein.
There is a good deal of politics in the
discussion of this subject at this time
The goody- goody politician who repre-
sents the Eleventh ward, and who has
| more than once betrayed the party that
elected him, thinks this is the right time
to make his appeal to Buncombe county
on this subject. He will never survive
as public character to tell what the
| result of the coming city election will be.
and he, Of all others, is the one who has
least reason to actively concern him
self in that or any other action Which
may be taken by the body of which he
is now a member.
Democrats can afford to stand in the
path of the authors of legislation of this
Characteristic men who believe that
men and women should be made virtu-
Gus by city ordinance. They can afford
to Withstand the movement which is I'M
der way to enact here the Minneap-
oils wine room ordinance. They can
not afford to stand in the path of a rea-
sonable regulation of the subject. No
regulation can be reasonable which will
not put an effective end to the evil of
the saloons furnishing private places OF
resort for lewd or drunken characters
Of either sex.
Any measure which provides for the
tearing down of existing private COM
partments in saloons and prevents their
future maintenance, seems entirely ade-
quate. The saloons are public resorts.
and they should be maintained as public
resorts. Any person, man or woman.
who is ashamed to be seen going into
saloon should be obliged to keep out.
The mass of the people of st. Paul will
not tolerate the establishment of sump-
tuary regulations which prevent the peo-
pie from eating and drinking, when. low
and what they please, even though those
regulations are ostensibIy aimed at the
prevention of a recognized social evil
such as the wine room unquestionabIy is.

DESTRUCTION OF DEER
DULUTH SPORTSMAN GIVES Full
LERTON SOME POINTERS.

A. Salter, of Duluth, thinks Sam Fuller
ton did not understand the situation
when he said that the deer we're prdc-
tically safe from wolves, and in no dan
ger Of destruction from the navenous
| lupines. He says:
Mr.. Fullerton, sitting in his office at
st. Paul, reading articles on the preser-
walton of game and how to catch pot
hunters, might allow his imagination to
carry him away with the idea that it is
wholly impossible for wolves to overtake
and destroy deer, excepting In case of
deep snow, and that it is a very easy
matter for deer to get away from the
pursuing wolves, but, if he will leave
his office and curling long enough to get
around amongst the men that make 1t
their business to look up timber lands
and settlers that live in close proximity
to our best hunting grounds, he will dis
cover that wolves are doing more than
pot hunters or others toward the de-
Struction of deer
Cruiser Mcdonald, 5ust in from an
eleven days cruise along the st. Louis
river, states that he came across four
carcasses of deer that had been run
down and partly deyoured by wolves.
That is the. experience Of one man going
over a small amount of timber land,
where deer and wolves abound. Imagine
what it might be throughout our state.
It is a well known fact that in case of
two hungry wolves on track of a deer,
they will land him in spite Of his fleet
ness ana enQuranc6s snow or no snow.
In such cases one wolf keeps the trail,
while: tie other circles and heads off the
deer, and by repeated maneuverS Of this
kind they soon tire him out. Now u
remedy for these existing circumstances
suggests itself. Offer more money In
the way Of bounty and make it an easy
matter to collect same; also, offer a good
prize in addition to the bounty to the
party destroying the largest number of
wolves in one season. With such induce
ments the pot hunters would go wolf
hunting instead OF deer hunting, realiz-
the same time be law abiding citizens.
Der camps north of us nearly all employ
expert hunters to secure moose and ven
ison for their tables and if this is a fact
it seems that with the large appropria-
ton from the state for the preservation
of game, Mr.. Fullerton, who receives a
goodly portion OF said appropriation,
should make it his business to visit all
the camps in Northern Minnesota inves-
tigate and make a report From all APP
pearances he certainly has ample time
for the undertaking. Tie taxpayers
whose servant Mr.. Fullerton is. surely
are not asking too much. Regarding Mr.
Fullertons remarks on the reports from
Maine and his wish that the licensed
guide" system that is a law there be
adopted In Minnesota, l think that I
would vote for the adoption of such a
law, if the state would pay the guides
Otherwise it would be a good thing for
g. few that are well able to pay, but for
the many that are poor 1t would be de-
cidedly bad.

and he decided to grab the chance. It
was winter, but the porch would be
painted. 1t might turn cold, but with
the signs in his favor c.. Judson was
willing to take chance.
The corner drug store was visited and
the druggist wrapped UP two-quart
can of lead colored paint and three
inch brush. G. Judson carried the paint
and brush home, and after looking UP
a discarded pair Of trousers he chopped
the top Of the can of mixed lead color
and carried the pail and brush to the
front porch.
g. Judson was spreading paint on the
second board in the porch when neigh
Dor Brown came down the street.
Hello, Webster" called Mr.. Brown.
How do you do, Mister Brown" re-
piled the amateur painter.
Are you painting the porch?" asked
Mr. Brown.
Yes, I thought I would take advan-
tage Of this opportunity" replied c.
Judson, politely furnishing an explana-
ton.
Then Neighbor Griswold appeared on
the scene. 1t was much the same in the
talk line Griswold said Hello" and G..
Judson answered with a ''How do you do,
Mister Griswold." Then Griswold look
ed at the paint and the brush and said,
S 49, t'-AAAtA1A5 tAAo PolSHs W y uu-
son, replied that he was taking advan-
tage of the first opportunity and was
spreading on a few coats of lead color.
In the next fifteen minutes just eigh-
teen male adult neighbors and two fe-
males passed the Webster home and
handed greeting to c. Judson. Not a
single one Of the collection overlooked
asking G.. Judson the question care you
painting the porch?''
G. Judson was peaceful, law abiding
citizen and q deacon in the church, but
about this time his knees began to
ache, and his temper had reached the
growing stage. c. Judson thought as
he brushed away with the paint that
