The Republican press in large head

used Dunn's thunder and distributed
thousands of pamphlets to convince
the voters that Dunn and the Repub-

pastor of the New York Calvary Bap-
fist church concludes that there is a
card playing that is absolutely sinless,
that the church can never deny or sup
press the dramatic interest in the hu-
man soul and that it greatly errs when
in it's manual of discipline it forbids
all dancing and practically all amuse-
ment. DR.. Norman Smith, who oc-
cupies high place in the councils of
the Congregational church, thinks that
" if we except the immoral spice of bet
ting with which it is often sought to
add zest to otherwise innocent exer-
cises the forms of amusement now or
dinarily admitted into good company
have little in them which need be
harmful to pure hearted and whole
some minded people, DIR. Remen-
snyder, of the Lutheran church con-
cludes that sit is a totally false and
hurtful conception of religion which
would exile pleasure and innocent
amusements from it, and make its
professors austere, narrow and un-
lovely" Probably the most conserv-
ative of those who have contributed to
the symposium is Cardinal Gibbons.
While he condemns neither card play
ing, dancing nor theater going he is
very careful to qualify his approval
of them as :a diversion which in itself
is harmless may have such associa-
tionsas to produce evil results The
general impression, however, which is
left on the mind after reading the com
munications under review is of sur
prise at the liberality of the attitude
assumed and the similarity of the
views of. the clergymen of the differ
ent denominations. Anyone Interested
in the subject will find the articles we'll

MILLIONS IN TIMBER.
Minnesota Has a Billion and a Half Feet
of Lumber Yet Uncut.

Minnesota Has Billion and a Half Feet
of Lumber Yet Uncut.
Approximately 100000 feet of
timber have been cut on State lands
in Minnesota in the logging season
just drawing to close and the State
has realized from the sales more than
100000. Practically all of this will
go to the permanent school fund, and
will swell that fund to Sl6, 900, 900, says
the Pioneer Press.
State Auditor S. G.. Iverson esti-
mates that there are billion and a
half feet of timber left on State lands,
worth at least S1O,OOO,OO0. This tim
Der is growing each year, and the State
auditor is satisfied that the State can
cut S5O0,0OO worth every year for
nearly generation.
"The logging season just drawing
to a close has been most prosperous
one for the State of Minnesota, said
State Auditor Iverson. "The receipts
from the timber will exceed S5OO,OOO,
the average price per thousand feet
being $3.50. This is nearly three
times as much as the State received
eight or ten years ago, when the price
of lumber was low.
sit must be remembered that the
policy of the State is to cut only the
timber in danger of being destroyed
by fire, windfall or in other ways.
The price of lumber is gradually in.
creasing, and it is good investment
for the State to let the trees grow.
Our cruisers estimate that there are a
billion and half feet of timber stand
ing. This at the present price is worth
in the neighborhood of $4,000, 900.
The timber is constantly growing, and
it is safe to predict that the State can
cut 100000 worth every year for
twenty-five or thirty years.
''This timber is only one Of the re-
sources of the trust funds of the State.
There are besides the valuable mines,
from which the State receives royalty
of twenty-five cents for every ton OF
ore shipped: and there is the vast acre.
age of land from which the timber is
cut'
Simon Clark, surveyor general OF
logs and lumber for the district of Du-
luth, reported scale bills for 10000, 600
feet of timber cut in that district, and
there are 10000, 900 feet yet to be re-
ported this season. The Minneapolis
district has reported approximately
20, 1000 feet, and there are about
5000, 900 feet from the Saltwater and
other districts.

The Church and A1nusements,

At the general conference of the
Methodist church the question of re-
scinding the rule prohibiting dancing,
card playing and theater going by
members of the church will be taken
up. That the church will change the
position on this subject it has assumed
is unlikely, but there can be no doubt
that there is a strong sentiment in
favor of more liberal attitude to-
ward amusements. Among those who
think the present rule too strict is DR..
Raymond, president of the Wesleyan
university, who in his contribution to
symposium on the subject in the
May number of Everybody's Magazine
points out that "the attempt to spec
lily the amusements which are obvi-
ously of misleading or questionable
moral tendency which was made by the
general conference of the Methodist
Episcopal church in 1872 was radical
departure from the temper and spirit
of Wesley who boosted of the catho-
licity of Methodists,.' son this
amusement question:" says DR.. Ray
mond, "the church needs to beware of
the artificial conscience, and of the ex-
ternality and superfciality of the re-
igious life wherever that conscience
is cultivated DR.. Parkhurst, the
eminent New York Presbyterian di-
vine, thinks that ''the clergy would be
better and more wholesome and do
better work among their people and in
their pupils if they could be present
once week at the rendering of a good
comedy" DR.. Robert S. Macarthur,

Collins and Taxation.

Is it not little singular that Jud ge
Collins in defining the issues of the
campaign had nothing at all to say
about defeating the inequalities of our
laws regarding taxation which 1T is
the governors duty to enforce. He
belongs to the moneyed class. Why
is it that while the farmers are re-
quired to list all their belongings for
taxation the owners of money and
credits and the great corporations on
whom he depends for support and for
campaign funds persistently decline to
contribute their fair share towards the
State revenue? Judge Collins would
stand much better chance of securing
the confidence of the public were he
able to show by his attitude on the all
important subject of taxation that he
deserved it.-Northfeld News.

POLITICAL COMMENT
Almost a Certainty.

The fight for the governorship con-
tinues with vigorous earnestness of
which only little appears upon the
surface. In reality the struggle gains
in intensity every day. and the par
tisans of the leading candidates are
leaving no stone unturned to secure
an advantage. At this writing Dunn's
chances are better than they have been
at any time since the candidates were
announced, and his success appears
to be almost a certainty.-Red Wing

for the governorship. The Republi-

realize that r. G. Dunn is going to be
the winner if the convention is repre-
sentative of the Republican party.

manipulate the wires to bring about
any other result. The demand for Mr.
Dunn, throughout the State, is too
strong.-Battle Lake Review.
