asplres 10 tne h1gh once OF
governor of Minnesota, would make
such an incomparably silly asser-
ton. 1t is true that human slavery
was formally abolished by the four
teenth amendment but it was first
shot to death by the bullets of free
men and the constitutional amend
ment was only the official announce
ment of it's burial. No man under
the flag would be insane enough to
attempt to revive it, breathe into
its dead corpse the breath of life
and re-establish it in the republic.
Does anyone imagine that the
"merger" is dead in the same sense
that slavery is? Does any one
think that James J. Hill will cease
in his efforts to combine parallel
and competing lines of railway be-
cause the supreme court decided
that the Northern Securities Comp
any was an illegal combination?
Sanguine, indeed, is that map who
imagines that corporate wealth will
cease it's efforts to eliminate the ele-
ment of competition out of the
business world by the wholesale
merging of competitive interests
because of the supreme court de-
cision in the merger case. The
supreme court can decide a legal
question but it cannot settle prin-
ciple. The Northern Securities case
was only the first gun fired in the
battle the people are waging and
must continue to wage against the
encroachments of corporate greed
on the rights of the people. To
stop the fight now would be to lose
all that has been gained and would
place the country in an infinitely
worse condition than it was before
the fight began. For man to as
sert that the principle involved in
the merger is no longer an issue, is
to betray deplorable ignorance or
the most subservient sycophancy to
the powers and interests that are
determined to foist and fasten that
principle on the American people.
To place such a man in a position
where he would have the power to
influence legislation, would be more
unwise than it would have been to
have elected Jefferson Davis Presi-
dent of the United States because
he could not have undone the work
of the war and revivified and re-
established human servitude, even
if he had desired so to do, bat if
the people should now place merger
tools in power in the councils of
the nation and state, these same
tools can and wifi Permit Wholesale
elimination of competition to fasten
the letters of financial servitude on
the limbs of Labor and bind the
people helpless captives to the
chariot wheels of Trusts.

POLITICAL CONTRIBUTIONS

After political conventions have
been held and the nominations have
been made, and the individuality of
the candidates become merged in
that of their party, and the struggle
becomes a conflict of policies, a
warfare of principles and not a
battle for supremacy between men
of the same party, it is not only
perfectly Legitimate but highly COM
mendable for members of a politi.
cal party, who believe the success
of their organization means the
welfare of the people, the prosper
ity of the nation and a guarantee of
mems rights, to contribute finan-
cially TO secure his party's success.
On the other hand whenever a
corporation or an individual contri-
butes to one candidate to aid him to
triumph over a fellow candidate of
the same party in convention, they
always do it as an investment know
ing they will get return for the
same, in case their candidate sue
ceeds, in the way of official in
fluence or patronage, and the candi-
date who accepts such contribu-
tions, simply barriers away the
rights and privileges belonging to
the people for his own individual
benefit, and morally he is in the
same class as a man who sells load
of his neighbours wheat to buy his
own wife silk dress.

MORE CRAFTS.

The business men of Bemidji
scarcely see a week go by that
they do not have to ward off the
attacks of some CRATER from the
outside world. Fake advertising
schemes are Of mushroom
growth in Minnesota, and among
the worst is the one now being
worked by the ST. Paul Globe
throughout the state, Bemidji
being the victim this week.
The Globes scheme is to write
up the different towns of the
state, giving the town itself a few
patronizing pats and each bust
ness man as many puffs as the
dollars he can be induced to shell
out will buy.
tits safe to say that the writeup
of the town is not worth a great
deal, and that the advertising
which the business man gets for
his business is worth nothing at
all. The business men of Be
mid j are not advertising in the
state in general but to the people
of Bemidji and Beltrami county
in particular, and for their pur-
poses the newspapers Of Bemidji
are unexcelled as an advertising
medium.
The buying Of writeups and
pic lures in the Twin City dailies
may be a good investment if it
gives US pleasure in proportion
to the dollars spent, but as an
advertising proposition the
scheme is pure graft.

BOOST FOR MURPHY.
Grade School Principa Elected as
a Teacher in the Kenosha
High School.
THERE is STILL ONE VACANCY.

The teachers committee of the
board of education met in special ses-
sion at the Office of Superintendent
Z1mmers last evening to take up the
matter of securing new teacher of
history for the High school. AS a re-
suit of the meeting Prof. S. w.
Murphy, principal of the Durkee
school, is advanced to the vacant posi-
ton in the High school. But two can
didates for the position were consid-
cred. One was Mr.. Murphy and the
other Prof. Gilman of the Weiskopf
school. Many people had expected
Mr.. Gilman to get theposition but the
committee held that his work at the
Weiskopf school had been of such
valuable nature to the board that he
could not be spared from that position.
Mr.. Murphy, the newly elected
teacher, has been in Kenosha since
the beginning of the year. He was
educated for his work as teacher at
the Oshkosh normal and has taken
special work in history and civics.
His new position at the High school
will demand special knowledge of
these branches.
The advancement of Mr. Murphy
will leave a vacancy at the Durkee
school but the board will have plenty
of time to fill the vacancy. AS the new
school will not be ready for opening
until after the holidays the members
of fhe committee will he oh1o RI oro+ n
man for the place by that time.
There is a decided scarcity of good
teachers in this part of the country,
and Superintendent Zimmers is hav-
ing hard time to find the right men
for vacarcies IN the Kenosha schools.
Nearly al the teachers of worth have
been contracted to other schools and
few of them are willing to change in
the middle of the year.

DAUGHTERS CONVENE
Annual State Convention of the
D. A. R. is Held in
Milwaukee.
ORDER SHOWS RAPID GROWTH

Forty-six members of the Daughters
of the American Revolution, repre-
senting eighteen cities of the state,
met in the green room of the Hotel
Pfster, Milwaukee, Monday after
noon for the opening session of the
eighth annual state convention of the
organization. The room was deco
rated with yellow tea-roses and flags,
and the program consisted of reports
of state officers.
Mrs. Walter Kempster, regent of
the Milwaukee chapter, spoke in well
come, and Mrs. Frank B. Fargo, re-
gent of the Lake Mills chapter, re.
sponded.
Mrs. Thomas Hoyt Brown, Mi1wau-
kee, state regent, reported the gen.
era1 condition of the work in the state,
saying that new chapter has been
formed this year at Amigo, and that
one is in process of organization at
Milton.
A delightful description of the
Daug hters' Day at St. Louis, Oct. II,
was given by the honorary state re-
gent, Mrs. James Sidney Peck, Mil
waukee. The state treasurer, Mrs. F.
S. Had1ey, Milwaukee, reported re-
ceipts of $153.17, disbursements of
$115.73. The state regents fund is
$125.47.
Mrs S. M. Perkins, Cleveland, o.,
National w. c. T. U. lecturer, spoke
on the work in her state toward edu-
eating children to be good citizens.
Of the three chapters of Children of
the American Revolution GAINESVILLE
failed to report, Fond du Lac reported
by letter that the chapter is planning
memorial gift to the children 'sroom
of the new library building. The
new Milwaukee regent, Miss Mary
Latin, reported plans to have copy
of the George Rogers Clark coat of
arms placed in the Athenaeum or the
public museum. There are forty
members in the chapter. The treas
urer's account showed receipts
amounting to $388.04, disbursements,
$214.69; in the fund for the George
Rogers Clark bust for the chi1dren's
room of the public library, $164.73.
The sculptor, Miss Mears, of Oshkosh,
has been paid 500, and if the remain
ing $85 is raised this winter the bust
will be unveiled next spring.
At the session Monday night the
strength of chapters was shown to be
as follows by reports: GAINESVILLE, So
members; Kenosha, 80; Lake Mills,
%; Waukesha, 80; Fond du Lac, So:
Fort Atkinson, SO, 10 nonresident;
Madison, II; La Crosse, As; Oshkosh,

land were discussed.

Marriages Of Cousins in Kenosha
Called Into Question by Judge
Dunno in Chicago.
DECIDES MARRIAGESARE VOID
Hundreds of These Weddings Have
Past Years and All Questioned.

Judge Dunno, of the circuit court in
Chicago, has thrown out bomb shell
among Chicagoans who have been
married in Kenosha, for on last Satur-
day he handed down a decision in
which he annul1ed a marriage on ac-
count of the fact that the bride and
groom were cousins. The couple had
been married in Wisconsin and the
court held that the fact that the I'LL
nois law did not recognize the mar
riage of cousins made the ceremony
performed in Wisconsin of no effect.
The decision of Judge Dunno has
been one of the chief topics of discus
sion among the legal fraternity in Ke-
nosha today, and should the decision
stand the test of the higher courts it
would have the effect of annulling
hundreds and possibly thousands of
marriage ceremonies which have been
performed in Kenosha.
An examination of the records
shows that more than two hundred
couples who bore the relation of cous-
ms have been married in Kenosha
during the last fifteen years, and of
this number ali save few were from
the city of Chicago. The sweeping
decision of Judge Dunno will effect
every one of these marriages. Not
few of the Illinois cousins who were
married in Kenosha have removed
here and it is claimed that the order
will also effect these people.
Judge Dunno did not go so far as to
declare all OF these marriages void
and of no effect, but he declared that
such marriages were voidable and that
on proper application to the courts of
Illinois the marriages could be an
nul1ed.
The decision will undoubte give
the marriage business in Kenosha
black eye. It is alleged that fully
one-half Of the Chicago cousins seek
ing to wed have been married in Keno
sha and ministers and court officials
have reaped quite harvest by this
sort of business.
Leading attorneys in the city when
interviewed on the matter held that
the decision of the court can not
stand, as they claim that it is con-
trary to the provisions of the constitu-
ton of the United States, which states
that acts binding in one state shall be
binding in all of the other states. It
is true that cousins are not permitted
to wed in Illinois, but this fact, &C
cording to the opinions of the attor-
neys, can not go behind the state law
of Wisconsin and there is no impedi-
ment to such marriages in this
state.
Ministers in Kenosha when seen to-
day declined to discuss the decision of
Judge Dunno and stated that the mar
riages performed by them had all
been in keeping with the Wisconsin
state laws.
