OVER CONF IDE> NICE
Only One Thing Gov. Van SAINT Has to Fear in Conn
ing Election Is That Too Many Friendly Vot-
ers May Stay at Home
This Is the>People's Fight and Every Man Must Do
His Share to Ensure Sweeping Victory for
the Anti-trust Forces

Gov. Van SAINT has but one thing to
fear in the coming election. That one
thing is that two many voters who
wish to see him reelected will not go
to the polls next Tuesday and vote.
There is no question but that his acts
as governor are approved by the peo-
pie. They want him reelected, but
such has been the confidence that he
would have an Overwhelming major
ity, that there is feeling that he does
not need votes.
There is always light vote in the
years when there is not a presidential
election, in the "off years" as they are
called. This is an "off year" and
there is danger that the voters, al
though friendly to Coy. Van SAINT, will
not take the trouble to go to the polls.
This supplement is published to show
to you plainly the issues that have
come up in this campaign. 1t is to
show you the tremendous power Of
combined wealth that Gov. Van SAINT
is facing. The power of money in any

Again, every source from which the
Republicans might get active support
in the campaign has been cut off
wherever these railroad interests
have had the necessary influence.
Every Republican speaker, every Re
publican committeeman and worker
travelling on these merged railroads
has paid his fare. Gov. Van SAINT him
self pays for every mile he rides on
their trains. Yet the Great Northern
s. Flyer which is supposed to stop for
no one, is stopped to accommodate
Democratic speakers.

been filed with personal abuse of Gov.
Van SAINT and other Republican can

Northern Compa "a

1t is time the people of Minnesota
Snew who the real contestants are in
his state campaign. On the ballots
hey will find the names of S. r.. Van
SAINT, Republican" and 81. A. Rosing,
Democrat as candidates for governor.
But they are not the actual contest
ants, and it is. time this fact was
brought right home to the citizens Of
his great state. The real contest to
be settled November 4th is not be-
tween Mr.. Van SAINT and Mr.. Rosing,
it is not even between the Republican
party and the Democratic party, it is
between the people Of Minnesota and
the Northern Securities Company Of
New Jersey. The issue to be settled
is whether the people of this state are
to run their own affairs or whether
they are to be managed by this New
Jersey corporation; whether the peo-
pie OF this state shall say who shah be
their governor or. whether the North
ern Securities Company shall name
him. This is said not haphazard nor
for political effect, but advisedly and
the facts show the truth of the state
ment -.
Mr.. Rosing, in his opening address,
said of the anti-merger suits brought
at the request Of Gov Van SAINT.
that while the governor had done
what was right that this merger ques-
ton was now in the courts and was
not a political issue: that the court
would take care Of it and that further
agitation of the matter would waste
time. At that time il looked as though
Mr. Rosing might be in a sense right.

JAMES J, HILLS ORGAN. AGAIN
GRINDING.
Desperate Campaign Against the Rail-
road Gross Earnings Tax
Being Wased.

e $ - - = = 3 ~ Y
The ST. Paul Globe, owned by James
j, Hill and operated in the interests
of the Democratic state ticket, has
opened a desperate campaign for the
defeat of the railroad gross earnings
bill.
S. The bill was passed by the legislat-
ures of 1901, in spite of a powerful rail
read lobby, and is submitted to the
people. at the coming election. It in
creases the gross earnings tax on rail
roads from to 4 per cent.
rs Now the organ Of the Great North
e1n, which made such strenuous eff
forts to defeat the bill. says the amend
ment, if adopted, will save the Great
Northern money.
Z The situation would be farcical were
It not evident that the Globe is making
q desperate effort to beat the bill by
misleading the voters.
81 The opening article is a tissue of
mis-statements from start to finish,
most of them apparent on their face.
The Great Northern has shrewd at
tcrneys and good bookkeepers, and
when the bill was introduced It was
carefully sanalyzed. The, Great North
ern knew what was In the bill then as
we'll as it does now. Yet its lobby
fought the bill before the legislature,
and it's newspaper now opposes it be-
fore the people. IS. 81 r.

cause, however unjust. is we'll known.
AS we have said, there is no question
as to where the sympathies of the
people are, they are with Gov. Van
SAINT, and he needs the vote of every
friend he has in Minnesota. He needs
it not only that he may be elected, but
that he may have such a majority that
the great railroad interests and trusts
will not again try to dominate the
politics of Minnesota and dictate to its
people who they shall elect as gov
ernor. This is your fight, and you
should see to it that you are at the
polls next Tuesday and cast, your bal
lots
There are 2,724 voting precincts in
Minnesota If but ten voters in each
precinct stay away from the polls,
that will mean 27,240 votes less Tor
Gov. Van SAINT, for you may be sure
that every opposition vote will be cast,
as they have the money to take the
voters to the polls. Every stay-at-
home vote will be Van SAINT vote.
He cannot afford to lose them and you
cannot afford to have him lose them.
The following table of the Repub-
lican vote in 1898 an "oR year" and
1900 a presidential year shows loss
of twenty votes to the precinct or
over 4l,OOO. Can you afford to have
Gov. Van SAINT lose that. this year!
Let us urge you not only to go to the
rolls yourself, but to take your neigh
bors and to make this indeed a
glorious victory.

Guba's Flag is 01dA

The flag of the Cuban Republic ante
dates the establishment of the republic
itself by good many years. It dates
back about 1850. 1t has a Masonic
origin and hence the origin. The red
field is the emblem of war. The pur-
pose of the movement here in the
United States was to conquer the island
Southern people, fighting Masons, were
the leaders. The three stripes repre-
sented the three departments into
which the island was then divided.
The white stripes were put in merely
to divide the blue. The star which
appears in the red field was the lone
star of Texas. In New Orleans there
existed there existed the association
of the Lone Star. They assisted Mar
cisco Lopez with money and in other
ways when he invaded Cuba in 1851
and adopted the flag of the ASSOCIATE
out of gratitude. When Cespedes be-
gan the revolutionary movement of
1868 he had another flag, but the peo-
pie of Puerto Principe and of Santa
Clara raised the present flag, which
was adopted as the Cuban national flag
when the first constituents assembly
came together in 1869.
