ton or commercial enterprise when
they meet to select the men entrusted
with the management of their affairs
and outline the policies calculated to
rebound to the best selfish interests of
their association.
East Dictates to West.
He pointed out that the Republicans
of the Northwest have no voice in
shaping the policies of their party and
must if they remain loyal to the Or
ganiZation be untrue to the principles
espoused by Lincoln and submit to the
dictation of the Eastern capitalist, and
argued that the presidents theory that
high protective tariff may not be re-
moved so long as there are some indie
pendent concerns which may need pro-
lection holds out no promise or hope.
The trusts can always maintain some
apparently Independent concern and
forever prevent the escape of the peo-
pie from the tariff fostered trust evil
Mr.. Rosing discussed all the state
issues and gave particular attention to
the Republicans one issue-the So
called merger" ISSUE He successfully
refuted the Republican claim that he
dare not discuss the false issue raised
by the Van SAINT administration to
blind the people to their sins of omis-
ing taxation.
Hide Behind Merger"
He said that Van SAINT raised huge
cry over his one alleged attempt to
enforce the states railroad laws to
distract attention from the fact that
under his administration not one of the
other laws drafted for railroad regula-
ton and the prevention of discrimina-
ton in rate against localities and in
dividuals have been enforced ether by
Van SAINT or the Republican railway
and warehouse commission. He con-
trasted the Democratic adminiStra-
TONS reduction OF grain rates in
twenty-five counties and at 172 sta
tions in Southwestern Minnesota,
which saved the farmers of that Sec
ton 100000 in freights on the crop
of 1900 alone, with the action Of the
present railway and warehouse COM
mission in resembling the order of re-
duetion given the Iron range roads.
At the conclusion of his speech, Mr..
Rosing was the recipient of demon
stration unique in the First ward, not
ed for its conservatism. For a mo-
ment after he concluded the big crowd
was silent Then it broke into a
mighty cheer, prolonged until the
echoes rang.
Enthusiasm Proves Interest.
Mr.. Rosing was escorted on his last
tour of ST. Paul by City Treasurer
Otto Bremen, County Treasurer P. j.
Metzdorf and M. F. Kahn, candidate
for county auditor. At the conclusion
of Mr.. Rosing's address, Messrs. Kahn
and Metzdorf made short speeches and
followed the party leader to the Second
ward. The meeting was closed by H.
v. Cook, who made an eloquent plea
for the election of Berndt Olson, DEM
ocratic candidate for the house of rep
reSentatiyeS.
The audience which greeted Mr.
Rosing in the First ward was in itself
a compliment worthy the greatest
American citizen. An audienc of 1,500
voters, willing to undergo the dis
comforts of tent in the chill weather
of a Minnesota fall and hundreds Of
them obliged to stand for nearly two
hours is sufficient earnest of the inter-
est the people of the First ward have
in the campaign and the success of
the Democratic candidates.
