Speaking Of the primary election

''It is rather expensive Innovation
and shoxld be- amended as to the rural
districts at least, as two or three reg
istration days are unnecessary. Fur
thernere. the hours in the primary
election should be the same as the
regular election and the names should
be ali upon enc ballot allowing the
voter to vote without disclosing his
party idesty. If necessary the ballot
might be thrown out at the primary
election in case a voter should vote
for candidates Of more than one party.
This would gain the end now sought
without arousing the contention Of
the voter as under the present sys-
tenn.
The plan outlined would allow such
gentlemen as the editor of The Enter.
prise, who claim to have no party
affiliations, and who pride themselves
upon their independence in politics,
to take part in the Democratic and
Republican primaries and nominate
tickets that they would not support
thereafter.

his party identity should HE himself

particular good or use to commun-
ity. They are generally men of putty.

CALLS 1T sc EFF.

Walter Wellman, that imaginative
Washington correspondent who deals
in fiction more or less, is taken to
task, and severely. too, by The St.
Paul Dispatch, who does not gulp
down in big lump Wellman's story
to the effect that j. Pierpont Morgan
is the man who settled the coal strike.
The Dispatch calls Wellman's story in
The Review of Reviews Cuff "
Says the Dispatch:
Walter Wellman apotheosizes ].
Pierpont Moragn, in the current Re-
view of Reviews. 1t was he who set
| tied the coal strike He cared nothing
for the millions in coal but says his
adulator, he did care for prestige and
fame as a CONSERVATION of industrial
peace he did care for his responsible
| ity and trustee of great interests
Millions of men and millions of money
demanded of him action and wisdom.
He had his way, and it was the right
way And so on. If Wellmsn is
honest, be emits pure CUFF: if he is
sarcastic, he wells it too heavily for
ordinary sensing.
There was not moment between
the presentation of the demands of the
miners in April to Morgan and the
surrender in October that Morgan
could not have ordered his underlings
to settle. Instead he decreed the
crushing of the union, sailed away
Ito Europe and designated Baer as
I spokesman for the gang. And Bear
spoke to suUh good effect that he
reused the public indignation to white
heat. Then the president, as First
Citizen, summoned operators and min
ers before him and told them to get
| together. Instead, the operators au-
daciously said they could not and
| would not Then Knox went over to
New York and saw Morgan. There fol-
lowed the surrender of the operators

cut the strings and Kept the surrender.
Morgan's aides-de- camp represented
him and assented.
And this man, master of the situa.
tion. who kept the mines idle five
months; who sent the country to the
verge of winter practically fuelless
who has made famine prices for fuel
that will last for months. who has
laid his hard hand on the pockets Of
every user of fuel of whatever kind,
finds one man to assert that he ordered
the strike settled because he cared
more for prestige and fame as con-
servator of industrial peace than for
| wealth Cuff pure CUFF.

While the board of control may
deem it unnecessary to take any &C.
ton on the recent incident" at the
Rochester insane hospital, it should
take cognizance Of the fact that there
is 8 number of youths acting as at

where large number of unfortunates
are confined, and the aforesaid youths,
who are without experience in hand
ling insane patients, are receiving
salaries that growH-up and expert

paid for this service so that nurses

will not happen hereafter.
Any fair minded man will readily
recognize that it is no easy matter to
handle people whose minds are unbsl-

HERE'S A NEW THOUGHT

Anybody can get into the contest
for the speakership of the house of
representatives SO far as the restric-
tions of the constitution of the United
States in relation to that Office are
concerned. says The Washington Star.
SIN fact there is nothing except GUS
tom, which has prevailed from the be-
ginning of the government, to suggest
that member of the house should be
its speaker :"
This interesting, even if rather
academic discussion, has arisen in
connection with the pending contest.
The constitution of the United States
provides that ''house of representa-
tives shall choose their speaker and
other officers. =" That leaves the field
open to the world SO far as the law is
concerned, and the suggestion of the
Iowa editor who wanted Senator Dolli-
ve- to Keep his place in the august
body at the north end of the capitol
and to run for the speakership of the
house as side issue becomes within
the range of the possible.

x,NNEsorA,s CLAIM.

The Free Press believes that during
the preliminary ALTERNATING period
preparatory to the national election
of 1904, Minnesota should be on the
alert and arge its claims for the Sec
ond place on the ticket.
We say second place for the reason
that it is conceded by all that Presi-
dent Roosevelt will be given the first
place with unanimity that is worthy
of the man. There is now no man
before the public and available for

"EQUAL RIGHTS.

The contest for the supremacy of
the principles of free government,
which in most Of the states was rep
resented by the Democracy in the re-
cent campaign, is not impaired or re-
tsrded. Equal rights for all, special
privileges to none, and other vital
and eternal principles are yet in issue
and never will be settled until they
are settled rights. Albert Lea Stand
ard
It is one of the faverite pastimes
of the Democstic press to talk about
equal rights, bat that party does not
practice whas it breaches. In the
southland there are several millions
of people who sre not given their
rights and The Standard does not APP
pear to be trembling itself about that
matter
When the Democratic party is in a
positioa to demonstrate to the people
that it is capable of handling the
affairs OF government, the people will
think about turning the government
over to its control
The Republican party has not de-
prived anyone of his rights, nor is il
in the habit Of granting special privi-
leges ts anyone. It's wise policy has
been tss means of building up the

AN ERROR.

The Free Press regrets the error
made in the date of DR.. Doran's visit
to Mankato last week. The date OF
his visit should have read Nov. 10th
instead of Tuesday, the 18th. A large

q result of the wrong dates and The

and has a great number of patients in
this and surrounding counties. His
next visit TO Msnkato will be Dec
18th at the Ssulpaugh, where he will
be all day.
