are charging and retreating. The war
IS almost as real as that in Cuba. Yet
the president of the United States is
not there, not watching the inspiring

SALTWATER

Yesterday was an ideal day for the
editors and ladies of the Northwestern
Editorial association, who spent most
of the day in saltwater. About TWEEN
ty carriages were at the Sawyer house
early in the forenoon and the visitors
were taken for a carriage drive about
the city. Many points of interest were
visited, among them the Atwood gym
nasium and the William Sauntry bali
room and bowling alley. A tour of the
prison was made and lunch was served
| there. After lunch the visitors went
through the shops of the Northwest
Thresher company and later made. a
trip down Lake ST. Croix on launches
that were donated by George H At
wood, Judge j. C. Nethaway, Warden
Wolfer, F. Whitman and others. The
party left late in the afternoon for
Wildwood and dispensed at st. Paul.
The following officers for the ensuing
year were chosen on the trip from
Taylors Falls to Saltwater: President,
G. S. Pease, Anoka; vice president,
Miss Minerva Barker, Cambridge; sec
rotary, G.. B. Wollen, G1enWood; treas
urer, Harry Ives, st. Hillaire. Mr..
Pease, in speaking Of the annual out
ing, said that it had been most enjoy
able and that every member of the
party, numbering about forty, had ex-
pressed himself or herself as greatly
pleased.
There is little boy living in the
vicinity of the Atwood mill who owes
his existence to George E. Wilson
one of the gentlemen in charge of the
T. I. Cash Carnival company in this
city, who saved the little fellow from
drowning in Lake st. Croix. A bal
loon ascension had been made and the
balloon fell into the lake. Boys were
trying to reach it, among them a lad
about ten years of age. who was not
good swimmer. He soon became ex-
hausted, and his little companions. who
could do nothing to help him, shrieked
for assistance, and Mr.. Wilson rushed
into the water, grabbed the lad as he
was going down for the second time
and pulled him ashore. The boy in his
fright forgot to give his name.
The street carnival in this city closes
this evening, when an immense crowd
is promised, provided the weather con-
tinues good. The mills will shut down
today SO as to permit employees to par
ticipate in the pleasures of the carni-
val. 80

SEEKS WORLD PEACE
interpasIiamentary Union Ar.
rives I'm ST. Louis

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Sept. 9.-The Inter
delegates from America Austria, Bel
GUM, Denmark England, Hungary,
Italy, the Netherlands. Norway, Pertu-
gal, Sweden and Switzerland. arrived
on two special trains today and next
week will hold it's twelfth annual ses-
sion. This body is composed of the
members of the different national legis-
latures and was organized in Paris in
1898.
This conference will discuss among
other questions of moment to all ma
lions, those questions which were rails
ed at The Hague conference, such as
rights and duties of neutrals, immunity
of private property at sea, execution of
arbitrati treaties, reduction of arma-
ments and the creation of a permanent
official congress of nations to supple
ment The Hague court.
Some members of the American dele
cation will introduce a resolution re-
questing the president of the United
States to invite all nations to send del
egations to a conference empowered to
negotiate arbitration treaties and TO
consider what steps the governments
can now take in regard to the queS-
tions above enumerated. The confer
ence at The Hague gave birth to The
Hague court and it is considered pos
sihle that st. Louis may have the honor
of~being the place in which the move
ment for the creation of worlds con-
gress to supplement that court is in
itiated.
The members of the union are tour
ing the United States as guests of the
government and after leaving st. Louis
after the conference ends Wednesday
will proceed West.
On the official train an informal
meeting of the executive council was
held and it was decided that the coun-
ell, made UP of two delegates from
each national group, should meet Sat
urday evening instead of Sunday as
arranged. The American members OF
the party are Congressman Bartholdt
and CONGRESSMAN BarroWS.

Swallow and Roosevelt

Candidate s. C. Swallow in his open
letter to Candidate Theodore Roosevelt
does not indulge in that sweet reason
ableness or that becoming courtesy
which should govern controversy be-
tween opposing contestants for the
highest office in the gift of the people.
1t is not Mr.. Swallows custom to SO
indulge himself. He has the priestly
habit Of vituperative one-sided dis
cussion of many-sided topics on which
he has not taken the trouble to fully
inform himself. But he is always
spicy if he be not instructive. Mr.
Swallow is as fierce a paternalist as
Mr.. Roosevelt He is ready to extend
the functions of the federal govern
ment even beyond the boundaries
where the rough rider would dare to
intrude, and he. consequently. holds
the president primarily responsible for
conditions he has no power to remedy
None the less for all his fanfaronade
he manages to give some keen thrusts,
which, Though they go unanswered
will not go unconsidered or unfelt.-

MAKE PUBLIC THE JOHNSON RE.
PORT

Now that the Democratic state CEN
publican gubernatorial nominee in its
demand that the suppressed report of
Public Examiner Johnson be made pub
lie there is really no reason why the
document which has caused SO much
speculation should be longer withheld
We have no knowledge of what the
report contains-at least so far as this
particular document is concerned. That
1t deals with the administration Of the
business of the state in dealing with
pine land and mineral rights lessees
We have been advised by public rumor.
1t has even been intimated that it
sharply reflects upon some former
state officials. 1t may be fairly as
sumed that sMr. Dunn is one former,
official whose record is attacked. What
the report contains is not the present
question. That it should have been
suppressed is the fact that the public
has to deal with.
Examiner johnson completed this. as
one Of the series of reports on the
showing made by the books in the
office of the state auditor, just prior to
the meeting of the Republican state
convention. AT least one copy of this
report went to the governor, another
to the attorney general and it was cur
rently reported that still another copy
was turned over to an anti-Dunn news
paper. Before the subject matter was
made public it was decided by the
powers that be that it should be sup
pressed in the interests of the domi-
nant party in the state. We can have no
means of knowing how the suppress
sion was brought about That is a
matter in which only the governor and
the attorney general were officially in
volved. Examiner Johnson could go
no farther in the affair than to hand
the report to the governor
Whatever the contents of this docu-
ment, the fact is apparent that it was
suppressed for personal or party rea-
sons. The right of the governor or the
attorney general to suppress a public
document may be questioned. The legal
department took the position that the
report was not public property until it
had been promulgated by the governor
to whom it was made. The governor
said nothing. The air of mystery with
which the report was surrounded at
tracted the attention of the people and
there has been much speculation as to
its contents Now that Mr.. Dunn has
demanded the publication of the docu-
ment there can no longer be any rea-
sonable excuse made for Withholding it.
The demand of the Democratic COM
mittee might have been ignored, but
the executive should now see his way
to putting aside the influences that
have hitherto inspired. him.
The Republican party and it's candi-
dates can better afford to meet and
combat whatever charges are made by
the Johnson report than to go through
the campaign fighting in the dark the
inuendoes that have grown out of the
suppression of the document. The
Democrats demand as right that this
official document be given to the peo-
pie by whose servant it was prepared
and to whose executive it was deliv-
cred.
