A. D. STEPHENS, OF Crookston, is
making his campaign for the nomi-
nation for state senator on a plat.
form consisting OF two planks, one
favoring the loan Of state funds at
two per cent for building judicial dis,
trict bitches, and the other that the
state go iuto the hail insurance bust
ness to protect the farmers against
loss from this source. The latter
savors somewhat OF populism, but
nevertheless we believe it to be prac-
teal. On this platform Mr.. Steph-
ems ought to have the solid support
Of the farmers in his district.

PRESIDENT SCHWAB, OF the United
States Steel corporation, is forced to
retire from active business affairs on
account OF poor health. Though he
has dealt in iron all his life. he has
at last discovered that he did not
have an iron constitution. But it is
a pity to see a man Of but 40 years
OF age, when he ought to be at the
height of his strength and power,
with shattered health on account OF
q too strenuous business career. The
question may well be asked: Is Il
worth the cost? His active brain
has constantly been engaged in plan
ming and conducting gigantic enter
prises, and the accumulation of the
almighty dollar. Even on his recent
pleasure jaunt in Europe he sur
prised the natives by his gambling
prospensity. That rich man
should ever think Of adding to his
wealth by such questionable meth
DDS is beyond our comprehension.
But his family will not have to suffer
any by the stopping OF his million
dollar a year salary, as he lis many
times a millionaire.

PRESIDENT Hill says it is futile to
regulate railway rates by legislation.
1t would certainly be that if Mr.. Hill
should have his say in choosing
members Of the legislature. But if
the people elect men WHO are honest,
capable and ruptible, IS their
representatives, then we think the
me hod will be vsry effective. That
tn re should he mutual understands
ing and good will existing between
the railways and the public, is very
proper, as their interests are really
identical, but the public is bound to
increase, Rather than surrender it's
power to regulate railway compan-
les, and all other concerns whose
business is OF a quasi-public nature.

Gen. Hooker, in command of the Army Of
the Potomac, meanwhile had been inform
ed of Lees northern movement. Gen. Hook
er's plan of campaign was a vigorous one
and military writers claim that 1t had every
promise of success. He ordered Gen. Slo-
cum with the 18th Corps to Harper's Ferry,
with the intention of adding the 10000
troops in garrison there to Slocum's COM
mand. With this strong force Slocum was
instructed to operate against the confeder-
ate line of communications while the Army
of the Potomac attacked in front. But
Gen. Halleck. the commander-in-chief, re-
fused Hooker's request that this garrison
be placed at his disposal, and so the 18th
Corps was recalled to Frederick after
making a fruitless march to Harper's Fer
ry. Gen. Hooker thereupon resigned and
Gen. Meade was appointed his successor.
On Gen. Meade's appointment Halleck at
once notified him that the troops at Har-
per's Ferry were at his disposal. Lee
meanwhile had moved into Pennsylvania.
Both Commanders Hampered.

restitution Of the south and the absolute
necessity of foraging upon the north for the
means of continuing the struggle. The rich
Cumberland valley offered untold spoils Of
clothing for the men, forage for animals,
cattle, sheep and grain for both the army
and the citizens of the south, and money
to replenish the empty treasury of the con-
federacy. Even though no battle was won,
the tribute that might be levied on the
country-the spoils of war to be obtained
would amply repay the movement. Gen.
Lee was opposed to a campaign merely for
spoils and plumber, but was compelled to
yield to higher authority, which he did re-
luctantly. He afterward insisted that the
disastrous results of the movement justified
his reluctance to undertake 1t.

1.-THE desperate though drawn battle of
Gettysburg" says Gen. Wellesley. was the
death knell of southern independence"
Small wonder, then. is it that it is the cause
OF pride to hundreds of thousands of vet
Grams and immortal object of interest TO
the historian. Not alone on account of the
number Of men engaged in the many con-
tests grouped under the name of the battle
of Gettysburg, but because of the vital
issue at stake, was the great contest i'm
portant. The south hoped to dictate terms
of peace-to effect its separation from the
north. The time seemed propitious for
raid into the enemy's country. The north
had been beaten in the two great battles OF
Fredericksburg and Charlottesville. Dis
content over the length of the war and the
Ill success attending the armies Of the
north was widespread in the loyal states.
The peace party seemed numerous, and It
certainly was noisy. The drafts in many
OF the states were unpopular. The emanci-
patton proclamation had arrayed against
the administration many who would have
supported the President in war to
keep the seeding states in the Union. but
who were opposed to what they deemed 20
be an unconstitutional usurpation by the
chief executive. Prominent politicians
voiced this discomfort, and 1t seemed 20

government at a critical time. How we'll
this hope was founded can be seen in the
fact that the great draft riots in New York
city took place only short time after the
Gettysburg battle Another considera ton
was the expectation Of foreign recognition.
it was believed that England, and possibly
France, would acknowledge the confederacy
were decisive victory gained northern
soil. The confidence of reaping immense
supplies from the teeming fields Of Penn
eylvania also led on the south in it's de-
termination to invade. Among the strategic
considerations was the expected withdrawal
of the Army Of the Potomac from the line
OF the Rappahannock and also from V!r-
ginia SOIL The danger that the north
might sweep down and capture Richmond
was not ignored, but 1t was not highly re-
garded. Indeed, Gen. Lee is credited with
having remarked that he was willing To
"swap Queens'-exchange Richmond for
Washington But this is now believed 10
have been ocular remark, and the re-
ports and orders Of Gen. Lee fail to show
that he had any designs on the federal cap
atal, or that he believed the north would
menace Richmond. On the contrary, he
looked for a decisive battle on northern
soil, but he expected that it would be on
ground Of his own selection, and that he
would be enabled to act upon the defensive.
His calculations in this respect were upset

Gettysburg is about ten miles east of the
