One of the chief arguments against the sys-
tenn proposed by DIR. Ames, when sanctioned
by law, is it's injustice and immortality. But
what shall be said Of the system when sane
toned by what amounts to blackmail? II
the people of this city acquiesce, not only In
the immoral and unjust system, but also the
method of enforcement it will be hard TO
find city in the United States where polit-
ical morality is at lower ebb; and if the
opposing nayoralty candidates make eff
fort to prevent Candidate Ames from taking
this unfair advantage of them in collecting
a campaign fund, then we must assume that
there is not enough OF either morality or en-
ergy in Minneapolis to prevent a continuation
Of the Ames regime. II that sort of thing
suits Minneapolitans, then that Is the sort
of thing they should have Il. Protest.

Those Dirty Programs.

To the Editor of The Journal:
Is it not time that a vigorous protest was
entered against the practice of our alleged
1rst-class theaters in giving out to its patrons
second hand programs? Time and again the
writer has taken friends from out of town to
the Metropolitan, and after telling them that
1t was our best theater, what has been his
humiliation to ind them supplied with mussy,
soiled, creased programs that have unques-
tionably been picked UP off the floor and
smoothed out by more or less clean hands.
The evident small cost Of the programs and
the large amount Of advertising therein must
make it profitable matter, and, there seems
to be absolutely no excuse for such prac-
tice. If the management has no pride, the
public has, and it has also the right to de-
mand that every patron Of the house, from
pit to gallery, -be supplied with clean, fresh
program at every performance. IS. L. N.

EXPANSION OF SOUR" INTERESTS

One of the most forcible arguments in
favor Of rejecting Cuba's plea for reci-
procity is that American interests are
paramount to Cuban interests, and that
congress should legislate in business
Hike way, to serve the former interests
that small American industry is worth
more to us than the welfare of Cuba.
Generally speaking, every nation must
look out for itself and legislate in such
manner as best to serve the interests
Of it's own people. The trouble with this
general rule when applied to Cuba is that
Cuba is entitled to be considered as a
part of the United States for purposes Of
economic legislation. We must include
them in ''our' interests rather than for
eign interests. We have practically made
Cuba an American colony. She is not a
nation in a full sense of the word. Home
rule she will shortly have, but she is
powerless to adopt an economic policy
that will serve her interests. Only the
United States can do that for her. r
1t may be embarrassing to pool Cuba's
interests with ours, but that Is the effect
OF the policy of expansion. Those who
refuse to see that expansion spreads the
pronouns I'VE" and our used in ma
tional sense, are not true expansionists.

opens April 1, at 10 a. m. Freeman VS..
Zimmerman, the St. Paul anti-vaccina-

appeal Of the ST. Paul prohibitfonists Is
also to be considered. They demand

under the general election law they only
need to secure 1 FER cent Of the voters on
their petition. The primary law requires
10 per cent, and the discrepancy will have
to be decided by the supreme court.

Thomas H. shevlin, national committeeman
returned yesterday from a prolonged stay in
the east. Mr.. Shevlin says he has no desire
to run President Roosevelt's campaign IN
Minnesota, but believes that Senator Nelson
is the right man for the place.
There is no doubt in my mind,' says Mr..
Shevlin. that Nelson will take charge, and
it would be impossible to secure the service
of a more capable man than he, or a harder
worker. I think he Is the hardest working
man in Washington to-day, and, withal, one
of the most modest"
The big men Of the country in finance and
commerce, continued Mr.. Sheylin, are with
Roosevelt. While he has made some enemies
by, his attitude award the railroad merger,
he has gained friends to more than compen-
safe. He believes the president will be re-
nominated by reclamation and triumphantly
re- elected. With regard to Cuban reciproci-
ty, he has not been able to make up his
mind, seeing justice in both contentious.
Referring to state politics, Mr. Shevlin ex-
pressed himself once more in favor Of the
denomination of Governor Van SAINT, as ''the

w F. Roberts filed his certificate yester-
day as a candidate for the state senate in the
