HOLY WAR is BEING
PREACHED BY BUDDHISTS
New Phase of the Anglo Tibetan Sit
uation Crops Out

ST. PETERSBURG, Sept. 21.-It is
significant that with the success of the
British expedition to Tibet and the
protest of Russia against the British
Tibetan treaty, some of the Russian
papers have suddenly become greatly
disturbed over the Importance of the
Buddhist pilgrimage to Mouran in
February.
According to information which has
been drifting eastward from Mongolia
the agitation of a holy war noted at
the time of the pilgrimage to Ourga in
July last continues. Wandering
lamas are spreading the agitation not
only among Buddhists in Mongolia,
but among the followers of Buddha in
the Altai regions of Central China
among the Russian Burias, and even
beyond the Siberian borders and in
India. According to reports at Ourga
there is general agitation among the
Buddhists in favor of freeing them
selves from the domination Of China,
some of them favoring the removal Of
the ba,ai lama to Northern Mongolia
and entering on holy war for the es-
Enlistment of a Buddhist kingdom,
while others advocate appealing for
the protection of Russia. What effect
the British expedition and the deposit
ton of the balai lama will have on
the movement Is the subject of much
speculation.
LONDON, Sept. 81. = The Posts
Shanghai correspondent has been in
formed that China objects to the An
glo-Tibetan treaty on the ground that
it infringes on Chinese sovereign
rights.

LETTERS FROM THEPEoPLE
Party Misfortune to Have No Candidate
In the Fourth District
To the Editor of the Globe:
80 lri ,x1rf,fft1

To the Editor of the Globe:
The process of making nominations for
public office has been completed and fer
the first time in the history OF the Fourth
congressional district the Democratic
party has. no candidate before the peo
pie for the high and responsible office
OF representative in the federal congress.
A plain, every day Democrat has tho
right, 1t seems to me, to ask why the
citizens who. locally. have assumed charge
Of Our party affairs. have. not seen fit to
arrange fer, the Presentation of a Demo-
cratic candidate. In the present condition
Of affairs in this, the metrepoIitaH dis
longer appears f. b qnsesTed :, but sss
to have Judgment, by default. to the ef-
feet that imperialism. militarism, ex-
cessive tazation, governmental extrava-
gance the fostering OF monopoly. and
other evils militant in the policy Of the
Republican party excite no definite dis
sent among the followers of Jefferson,
Jackson Tilden and Parker.
Such a negative but. not by any n1eaus.
Insignificant, Endorsement of evils which
the candidacy Of Judge Parker Is de-
signed ~ ceritat, Is q public misfortune.

HONESTY AND MccLEARY

Every believer in honesty in politics,
whatever his party name, must be glad
that Mr.. McCleary succeeded in OBJ
tanning a denomination by the Repub-
licans of his district. A bitterer fight
has seldom been waged against any
man in this state than that put up by
his party associates. He has had the
national machine and one of the state
machines and several Of the principal
Republican newspapers of the state
against him for no reason in the world
except that he will not lie about the
tariff Believing in protection, he car
ries his belief into action; and for this
only tremendous fight was made
against him.
Mr.. MeCleary's position on the tariff
differs from that of his opponents, that
of President Roosevelt and that Of the
ST. Paul Dispatch and the Minneapolis
Journal only in being sincere. If the
tariff is good thing, it is a good
thing. If 1t builds UP industry and
makes prosperity, we cannot have too
much of it. The man who attributes
to the principle and the system all
these splendid results and then tells
the people that at some future time he
viii favor impairing the system and
minimizing these results because the
tariff ought to be reduced can hardly
escape the reputation of the hypocrite.
We should like to see a general re-
Mobilization of honesty among the Re-
publicans in McCleary's district. If those
who voted against McCleary believe
! in their principles, they will now turn
in at the election and vote for his
Democratic opponent. They have said,
| by opposing McCleary, that they do
not believe in his tariff record. Mr..
Jones can be depended upon to vote
straight for tariff reform all the time.
Let us, see how much sincerity there is
| in the Second district on the question
of tariff reduction. We cannot but re-
| joice in the rebuke administered by the
triumph by Mr.. McCleary- over his Re-
publican opponents to the siekening
| hypocrisy which constitutes the entire
Republican partyss position in this
campaign.

SALTWATER

The Republican legislative nominees
in Washington county are John Zeicn,
of Cottage Grove, and H. B. Vollmer,
of Lakeland. Both have served as
members of the house. The outcome
Of the. primaries could not be deter
mined until the last precinct had been
reported, because of the closeness of
the vote between Messrs. Zelch, Voll-
mer and Sven Magnuson, but the latter
dropped off in the southern end of the
county and allowed Messrs. Zelch and
Vollmer to pass him by narrow mar
gin. The nominees have no opposition
from the Democratic side. The Re-
publican nominees for county offices
are: Charles H. Browne, auditor;
Charles A. hammers, register of deeds;
J. @. Macintosh, clerk of courts; F. Z.
Wilson, Judge of probate; Fred S. FOs-
ter. treasurer; Oscar Ostrom, sheriff;
J. C. Nethaway, county attorney; J. +.
Larson, superintendent of schools; DR..
G. N. Waiter, coroner; ]. Oldham, sur
yeyor, and J. M. Schaffer, c. w. Grand
strand and Aug Noltiinier, commits
sioners. None of the Republican NOM
inees for county Offices will have OPP
position, Democrats having neglected
to file. In the city Ed ST. John, Re
publican, and j. G.. Armstrong, Demo-
crat, are the opposing candidates for
mayor. D. J. Hooley was nominated
for alderman in the First ward by the
Democrats and n. A. Starkel in the
Second. j. J. Stinson received the Re-
publican nomination for alderman in
the Third ward and E. G. Foster was
nominated for city treasurer.

Get Too Wise on Our Navy

WASHINGTON, D. c.. Sept. 21.-
Because it is believed that foreign
governments are learning entirely too
much regarding the inside workings of
the American navy and are picking
from the annual reports of the bureau
chiefs too much information which
should be of confidential character,
a change will be made this year in the
preparation of the annual reports and
much that hitherto has been included
in these papers will be omitted. It
also has been decided. to omit the I'm
revised estimates of the bureau chiefs.

NITRIC ACID FUMES

Of lightning which started a fire in the
etching rooms of the Post Printing
and Publishing company. Nine other
firenen are suffering greatly from the
effects of the fumes. Police surgeons,
assisted by other physicians and
nurses, are working assiduously to
save the lives of the afflicted firefnen,
most of whom are in the emergency

room and when they learned of the
danger from the acid they refused to
retreat until the flames were subdued.

a NoN-PARTlsAN JUDICIARY

Judge Otis, of st. Paul, in accepting
the Democratic nomination for the SUI
preme bench, sounds what should be
dominant note in this campaign. He
urges the acceptance by all the people
of the principle of a non-partisan judi
ciary. That principle is ratified and
insisted upon by every decent lawyer
in the country. It is the ideal of bar
associations. 1t is the hope of the
courts. 1t is the only salvation of the
system of electing Judges from ulti-
mate degradation. 1t is represented in
this state campaign by the candidates
of the Democratic party.
If these gentlemen did not, as they so
enlinently do, deserve hearty support
on account of their personal fitness and
their professional qualifications. they
would deserve 1t because they repre-:
sent the principle Of a bench divorced
from politics. The Democratic party
took a long step in advance when it in
dorsed that idea. Let the people stand
by it. We shall have new regime in
this state. We shall restore the su-
preme bench to its earlier and higher
repute4 We shall elevate the law, and
free politics themselves from much that
is evil when we have taken the judi
ciary absolutely out of politics.
The way to begin is to begin. The
way to get non partisan bench is to
vote for men who represent the nom
partisan bench, regardless of the ticket
on which their names are to be found.
The opportunity is here. The Democ-
racy of Minnesota has not only nonli-
| mated non-partisan candidates, which
might be construed possibly as a po-
litical move, but unreservedly COM
| mitted itself to the support of the prin-
ciple. The voters should stand behind
| the people believe the judiciary higher
| than party, by electing men who are
named for the bench without the party
| label, will be worth a thousand reso-
| lutions and platforms. The people can
establish the rule of nom partisan
| judiciary in Minnesota for all time to
come at this election If they choose.
Can they have any higher or more sa-
cred duty than that Of voting for the
Democratic candidates for the supreme
bench as representatives of this great
idea and this practical publication Of
| politics?

now just as unblushingly demands a
ballot of the party to which he does
not belong and does the same thing.
We have violated the principle of se
crecy of the ballot without any gain
whatever. We have also shown by
practice under the present law that, in
stead of escaping the evils of the con-
vention system, we have drawn down
and introduced among the great mass
of voters the corrupting and degrading
practices that brought the delegate
convention into disrepute.
These are facts that must be weighed
and pondered seriously with view to
a possible Improvement of the law.

for it. Public opinion is being directed
largely to the custom in other states
which retains the regular delegate con-.
vention, but requires delegates to that
convention to be elected at the pri-
maries by the Australian ballot under
| precisely the same rules and regula
| tons applying to the general election.
| The system works well, and we are be-
ginning to question whether it's intro
duction here would not be an improve
ment.
Certain it is that an observation of
| the practical manipulation at the pri-
maries of voters of one party by the
managers of another is creating wide
| spread dissatisfaction: and that Tues
| days voting will go long way toward
convincing the entire public that our
present primary law has failed to do
what was expected of it and re-. uires
| amendment to save it from repeal.
