He WILL RUN HIS

This Is Signified by RooseveIt's
Decision to Have COrteIyou

1eellng that has prevailed in MANY
quarters for some time that President
Roosevelt would settle the question of

Inc prediction made long ago that
such would be the case was based on

Talk Bliss Out of 1t.
Ten days ago it seemed certain that
cornelius n. Bliss would be the ma
!ohaI chairman, and it was so pub
lShed in these dispatches on high an
thorlty. When Mr.. Bliss came to Wash
lngton to talk over the matter with the
president he gave conditional promise
that he would accept the place. He
went back to New York and his busi-
ness associates and close friends
TAXED him out of it. But even if Mr.
Bliss had chosen to take the chairman
snip Mr.. Roosevelt would still have
Kept close hand on his campaign.
But since it has become apparent
that Secretary COrtelyou is to be the

makes the management of the Roose-
welt campaign strictly a family affair.
Mr.. COrtelyou is notoriously not a DoIi-
uclan. He has never been identified
with politics at any stage of his career.
and MS acquaintance with politicians is
limited to his experience as secretary
to the president.
Republican Leaders Dissatisfied.
Several leading members of the Re-
publican party are not pleased with the
presidents selection of national
chairman. Mr.. CortelyOu is recognized
as man of no little executive force.
but 1T is obvious that more than this is
requisite to fit a man for the manage
ment of great national campaign. So.
of course, the president will be in con-
slant association with Mr. COrtelyou
during the canvass and the Republican
campaign will really be conducted from
the White house. Nobody in Washing
ton seems to recall the time when such
a spectacle as this was ever presented.

A sop TO cERBERUs.

The report that Russia would de-
clare all ports in her Asiatic possess
sions free is confirmed. The object
of the concession is to remove the
cause of the objections of the United
States and Great Britain to Russian
occupation of Manchuria. 1t is to be
regretted that the Russian government
did not make the. concession before
the commencement of hostilities-in
which event it is very possible that
war might not have been declared.
The interest of the United States in
the conflict between Russia and Japan
is based upen the. hope that the out
come will make for the greater freedom
of commerce. We are not engaged
through the sympathies ordinarily in
voked by ties of race, language Or in
spiration. We have nothing in com
mon with either the Japanese Or the
Russians. although there has been
some superficial evidence of sympathy
with Japan, based upon the presump-
ton that, as progressive people, the
Japanese might be depended upon to
encourage commerce with the whole.
world instead of attempting to restrict
it in their own interests-the policy of
Russia.
The government of the car has
given plenty of evidence of it's reac-
tionary tendencies. 1t is known that
the czar himself is a gloomy and at
times fanatical ry-differing
greatly from his father The policy of
st. Petersburg has been to disregard
the claims of other nations and to ex-
tend the territories of the empire with
a view to bringing strange peoples
within the reach of the Russian tax
gatherer. The far East, in the pos-s
session of Russia, would remain as eff
fectively closed to the advances of oc-
cidental civilization as though it re-
manned under control of the yellow
peoples. In fact it might be even
more effectively sealed by the strength
of the wall that Russia would erect.
The announcement that the ports Of
the Pacific coast would be declared
free would be of greater interest if
Russia was in a position to open those
ports at all, and would command a
larger share of faith on the part of the
public if it were dated six months
earlier.

What the Editors Say

The people of Isanti county are pre-
pairing for bumper crop this year.
and as an old farmer said a few DAYS
ago: There will surely be no corn if
we don't plant any," There is a lot of
truth in the above remark and al
though the weather is a little unfa-
Vorable at present, there is every rea-
son to look forward to a good crop. 1t
never pays to get discouraged. Put in
the fuI1 crop and trust to a kind Provi-
dence to do the rest.-Cambridg In
dependent.
Whichever side man may be on,
Dunn or Collins, it must be acknowI-
edged the people are getting sick of
the present methods of conducting the
campaign. It is getting nauseating,
and the sooner a complete stop is put
to it the better it will be for both the
leading candidates Again, many of
the enthusiasts are shooting off their
mouths too much for the good of their
candidate.-Granite Falls Journal
There is always fire where there is
smoke, and as there is both smoke and
IRE in the Republican camp in this
state 1t is time that the principals re-
tire and the people assert who shall be
their standard bearer; who shall be
nominated and elected to the office OF
governor of Minnesota. Fool politics is
disgusting, and Minnesota politics is
fool and assuredly isgusting-Lake
City Graphic Sentinel.
The distinguished characteristic of
the Hearst movement so far is the
fierceness with which the regular De-
mocracy is assaulted. The candidacy of
Hearst does not appear to be at all
anti-Republican; it is distinctly anti
Democratic-such are the natural con-
illusions after perusing the Hearst pa
pers and their lesser imitators.-BelIe
Plaine Herald.
When the Democrats meet in St.
Louis, they will not fail to give proper
consideration to the availability of
John Sharp Williams. No boom has
been started for him and none need be.
If he appears to be the best man the
convention will turn to him. We have
growing conviction that it is the
most likely nomination. - Goodhue
County News.
Minnesota Democrats should get to-
gether and stay together. Let them
send an uninStructed delegation Of
good men to the national convention
without regard either to Parker
Hearst or any other candidate. Dele
gates thus selected will be something
more than mere dummies and can use
the discretion needed when nominal
tions are made.-Morris Times.
The two candidates for governor,
Dunn and Collins, met last Thursday
night at banquet at Minneapolis.
And with due regard for both candi-
dates it can be said they met as all
true gentlemen should. The political
gravy was not scorched.-Springfiel

Evidently the best and only sure way
to end the scandalous Republican muss

candidates all down and elect a good
