A SUGGESTION.

We are aware that it is the
prerogative of the convention itself,
to promulgate its platform, but it is
a prerogrative that is seldom exer-
cised. Nine times out of ten it is writ
ten before the convention assemblies
by men who have established repu.
tations of saying nothing and say
ing it well. We would, for once,
like to see a platform that said
something and meant something,
and represented the sentiments of
the republicans of the state. 1t
should be brief enough to be writ
ten on the back of playing card
and carried in the vest pocket of
every voter in the state. 1t is USE
less to INDUCED in fulsome eulogy of
the past glory and achievements of
the republican party. That is
history. 1t is equally ridiculous to
enumerate and vigorously de-
nounce the faults, follies and mis-
deeds of democracy. That is not
even news.
We offer the following as clear,
plain statement of what Minnesota
republicans believe in on both ma
tional and state questions:

HOW ANTHRACITE WAS MADE,
Scientific Explanation Of the Differ
ence In Coal.

Scientific Explanation Of the Differ
ence In Coal.
The popularity Of the Pocahontas
coal is to be found in its low content
of ash and volatile matter, as well as
of sulphur and other impurities, and
the resultant high percentage of fixed
carbon with the high calorific value
that follows upon such conditions.
The Pocahontas vein is thought to
correspond to the anthracite vein OF
red ash coal Of the Lykens valley,
near Pottsville, Pa. The geological
explanation Of the difference Is that
the anthracite bed was subjected to
a more thorough ,coking process under
pressure than the Pocahontas portion
of the vein, while the latter owes its
own lack of volatile matter to the
fact that it was subjected to heat
under pressure for more protracted
period than the bituminous Goals OF
western Pennsylvania and Ohio.

BE GENTLEMEN.

1t is good sign of party health
and strength to have large field of
candidates, holly ,contesting for the
nominations instead of being a sign
Of party deterioration.
1t is a good thing to have the
merits of these candidates and their
abilities and qualifications for the
positions they seek vigorously
and holly discussed. There
is nothing that clears the political
atmosphere more thoroughly than a
hot pre-convention scrap. 1t arouses
enthusiasm and interest, and puts
the party in good fighting trim to
meet the common enemy. Hopeless,
indeed, is the condition of that poll
teal organization when its nomina-
tions for important offices go beg
ging. 1t is legitimate and commed-
able that candidates, their qualifi-
cations, their records and their sup
porters be subjected to the most
searching scrutiny and most fearless
discussion, but this should be done
in a fair and gentlemanly manner. 1t
is to be presumed that men whom
the party have kept in positions of
trust and honor, practically ever
since they have been old enough to
hold political positions, are men of
character and ability, and especially
is it to be presumed, that the sup
porters of each are animated by
honest motives. We deplore the
tendency of the press to resort to
fvulgar abuse and indecent vItuper-
alton in discussion candidates and

THE QUESTION.


As far as the nomination of
officers is concerned there is but
one question to be considered by
delegates, that will meet in the re-
publican convention on June 3Oth.
1t is to be presumed that whoever
are fortunate enough to be nomina-
ted will be republicans and will do all
in their power to forward the inter
est, policies and principles of the
republican party. The only question
is, as to the availability and ability
Of the candidates. Which ones
will furnish an administration that
will be for the best interest of the
state and it's citizens. Which ones
will most conscientiously and fear
lessly perform their respective
dutiet? Which ones, if nominated,
will leave the least hard feelings
and heart burnings among Mime
sofa republicans? Which ones
will leave the party in the best
shape to fight coming campaigns?
The personal ambitions of candi-
dates ought not to be considered.
The party owes no man a nomina-
ton. When any of the candidates
now before the voters of the state
talk about the Indebtedness of the
republican party to them they are
talking nonsense. They, all of
them, owe the party more than they
can ever pay. They did not make
the party, the party made them.
The party did not win its past
victories because they were republi-
cans, but they won because they
belonged to the party. The only
question for the delegates to con-
slider, if they are conscientious,
honest party workers, is, what is
the best for the party, not what is
best for individuals. The re-
publican party will not always have
the walkaway that it is going to
have in this campaign. 1t is un-
wise to SOW seeds of descention
within the ranks in times of GER
tainty that will ripen into defeat in
times of doubt.
Men who love the right, believe
in the right ana do the right, con-
stitute a fRsajority of every com,
munity and commonwealth, and the
only reason why wrong, corruption
and injustice ever rule ir the councils
of nation, state or municipality is
because wrong-doers move in a solid
phalanx and swifter than eagles d y,
while right-doers scatter themselves
individually over the plain of achieve
ment and travel with the leasurely
pace of picnickers on sunny,
summer afternoon.
If every one who believes in the
right would do the right, do it
quickly and do it simultaneously
with his fellow right doer, evil would
disappear, angels rejoice and hell
become tenantless.
