The republican press of the state is
busy nowadays to find berth for V an
SAINT when he rolls out of the guber-
Material chair. Some want to give
him a third term; others suggest the
vice presidency, a seat in the United
States senate or on the Interstate COM
mission, etc. If they really desire to
do Van SAINT good turn they should
allow him to retire before he is found
out. His attack on the merger gave
him fame. Beyond that his work as
governor has been as commonplace as
the man himself. TO place him in a
position that requires ability and will
attract attention to him would be sure
to show his mediocrity and would
make people wonder why the voters of
Minnesota raised him to his present
high place. Of course he might be
competent to fill place on the inter-
state commission, which has always
been place for slowing away "dead
and down" timber. But in the senate
or . possible successor to the presi-
dency it would be necessary to tie q
string around him to prevent him from
getting lost.

Emerson on
Ole ~fuder1f

Let the student know that the world
Is his, but he must possess it by put.
ting himself into harmony with the
constitution of things. He must be q
solitary, laborious, modest and chart
table soul.
He must embrace solitude as bride.
He must have his glees and his gloolns
alone. His own estimate must be
measure enough, his own praise re-
ward enough, for him. And why must
the student be solitary and silent
That he may become acquainted with
his thoughts.
If he pines in lonely place, banker
ing for the crowd, for display, he is not
in the lonely place; his heart is in the
market; he does not see; he does not
hear; he does not think. But go cher
ish your soul, expel companions, set
your habits to life of solitude; then
will the faculties rise fair and full
within, like forest trees and field flow
ers. You will have results which,
when you meet your fellow men, you
can communicate and they will gladly
receive.
Do not go into solitude only that you
may presently come into public. Such
solitude denies itself, is public and
stale. The public can get public expe-
r1ence, but they wish the scholar to re-
place to them those private, sincere,
divine experiences of which they have
been defrauded by dwelling in the
street. It is the noble, manlike, just
thought which is the superiority de-.
manded Of you, and not crowds, but
solitude, confers this elevation.
Silence, seclusion, austerity, may
pierce deep into the grandeur and Sc
cret Of our being, and, so diving, bring
up out of secular darkness the sub
limities OF the moral constitution. How
mean to go blazing, a gaudy butterfly,
In fashionable or political saloons, the
fool of society, the fool of notoriety, q
topic for newspapers, piece Of the

tive of the russell coat, the privacy and

DEMOCRATS FAVOR CORPORATIONS.

The Iowa democrats had state con-
vention last Wednesday, and the
Clevelandites won control of the party.
A plank indorsing the Kansas City
platform was rejected by vote of 463
to 354. Having thus disposed of
Bryanesque democracy, the convention
was called on to vote on plank en-
dorsing government ownership of rail-
roads in case government control with
out ownership should prove failure.
This was voted down by vote of 628
to 199-showing that some of the
Bryan democrats were opposed to this
populistic plank.
This ought to be settler for those
who still believe that something good
can come from the old democratic
party. Organism is thing of the
past as far as that party is concerned.
AS to populism, when more than two
thirds of the convention did not want
government ownership of railroads
even if government control should be
a failure, there can certainly be moth
ing for populists to expect from that
quarter. This means that they would
sooner let the railroads run uncOn-
trolled than make them government
property. We might hope something
from the man who believes in trying
government control first, leaving
government ownership as an expedi-
ent to be tried il the former fails.
But the Iowa democrats have placed
themselves so squarely in favor of the
corporation against the people that
every believer in populism in that
state must be forced out of the party.
And what the Iowa democrats have
done will be what the great majority
of democratic convention will do.
It is we'll that this action was taken
this year. It clears the board for
action. Populists and reform demo-
Gratis know now what fate awaits them
If they stay with the democrats.
There is yet time to reorganize the
peoples party and put it in fighting
trim, so it can become the home of all
who shall in the near future become
convinced that the trust problem can
not be settled by parties whose leaders
are also trust leaders.
