 The press report makes no mention of T. A. Marquam or the other mem bers of the delegation that were chosen with him, and if they saw ,the conven' tion at work, it was probably from the visitors galleries.

The Democratic Method.

The democratic, campaign textbook
undertakes to make, it Sapgear. that the
cost of living has increased more than
the rate of wages. The trouble with
the democratic computators is that they
have left out part Of the. facts. :
During the days Of Grover Cleveland
and the free silver agitation Of William
J. Bryan there were millions OF men
idle in this country. Samuel Gompers
is reported as having placed the num-
ber at three millions. The wages re-
ceived by these three million men were
represented by ciphers:* Most OF these
three millions are employed today. Dur;
ing the same period Of business depres'
SION there were probably three million
more men who were employed only half
the time. These three million are work
ing today on full time.
In order. to determine whether the
cost Of living has increased more than
the rate of wages, it would be neces
sary, to arrive at any conclusion worth
ANYTHING, to take into account the
wages received by these six million OF
workingmen in 1898 to 1896 and com
pare them with the wages received bJ
the same men at the present time.
This, Of course, is not the democratic
method. They take theEifew who Were
employed during the Grover Cleveland
administration and compare the wage
earned by them with the present. aver
age, covering up the fact that thu
wages of three million have increased
by nearly 100 per cent, and that three
million more have increased SO to x
per cent. You can't create in the mint
of the man who has a job today, bu'
had none in 1896, that his wages have
not increased more than the cost O.
living. -,,-.' -7~ = - -. 49,. -.

Board Needs Equalizing.

While we are in the equalizing busi-
ness, why not equalize the state board
of equalization?
Hennepin county pays onesffth OF the
state tax and has one-seventh OF the
population of Minnesota. On the state
board of equalization Hennepin county
has one member out of eighteen. Hen
nepin and Ramsey counties together
pay more than third of the state
tax and have nearly one-fourth Of the
state population. On the state board
of equalization Hennepin and Ramsey
counties have two members out OF
eighteen.
To put it all in fractions, the two
large counties, with one-fourth Of the
population, pay fone-third Of the tax
and have one-ninth of the membership
on the board which equalizes the assess
ments. This come perilously near taxa
tion without representation.
The results of this system are appar-
ent in the assessments For: goods and
merchandise. AS finally equalized, the
assessments under this head are $5.eO3,-
564 higher than last year. OF this IN.
crease, Hennepin county stands a round
$3,0OO,OOO and Ramsey county $780,
900. The other eighty-one counties OF
the state are increased $1,0OO,OOO.
This is country against city with a
vengeance. No doubt the members OF
the board think they ARE doing full
justice to every county, but the SIX
teen members from outside the twin
cities look thru ifferent spectacles, and
cannot see the situationlas it is viewed
by the member from Minneapolis and
the member. from, ST., Paul.
The work of equalization should be-
gin with the board itself. There are
nine congressional districts in the state
carved out with some regard to popu'
lation. Giving each Of those districts
| two members Of the board would not
increase the present membership
eighteen. Hennepin, which is much the
largest of the congressional districts in
population, would then have two mem
bers Of the board, or one-ninth OF Its
membership. Is this too great repre-
sentation for county having one-sev
enth of the population and paying one
| fifth of the state taxa .'-' \ 49, -
The subject is worth the considera
tion, of members of the next state legls
lature. If we are to continue the pres
ent taxation system, the state boart
should be equalized. ,>:~ -...e -,

Still@at It,

AS to the claim which has been made
that Robert c. Dunn, when state auditor,
did not collect double or treble the value
of logs cut in trespass from the offenders
and that, therefore, he was derelict in his
duty, and that the state was the: loser by
his actions In this respect, it may be said
that the state supreme court on July TO-
1885, six months after Mr. Dunn entered
upon his official duties, gave decision
in the case of the State of Minnesota vs.
Shevlin-Carpenter company, denying the
right Of the state to collect more than the
stumpage value of the logs.--Republican
State Press Bureau Editorial.
AS The Q Journal pointed out
yesterday, this Statement is all wrong.
In the heat ofssa partizan struggle a
partizan newspaper generally rec
fuses to : take back ) false
claim, but here is a statement
that strikes Eat the material inter
ests of the state school fund. IF tres
passers can frolic Ut will over the, tim
Der lands belonging to the state, and get
away, when caught, for the bare value
of the timber, ttespa ssiin e will not cease
until the last stick of timber has been
cut. The history of these depredations,
committed year after year, under the
Dunn administration and by the same
persons, proves: the statement.
| There: is absolutely no :. excuse for
such. easy settlements The law calls
for treble damages, and admits. Of no
compromise for#les than double value
Of the timber; 4The.> intention was to
stop trespassing by making. it. un-
profitable: That law has, never been: set
aside Or inva1idated The decision re-
ferred to by the press bureau related
to the old law Of 1878, as the case was
brought before the enactment of the
present law. No excuse can be: found in
the law, or the decisions Of the, courts,
for failing to collect punitive damages
from trespassers.
The republican press bureau should
have more regard for the interests Of
the state than to encourage looting Of
the state school lands. Such tactics
ought to be stopped, and :. the press
bureau owes it to the people of the
state to make due correction Of Its
| erroneous statement.

: Theory and Experience.

This twaddle about the success of one
political party in the United States as op-
posed to another having any unfavora bic
effect in the Philippines long ago became
barefaccd hypocrisy and disgusting. It
has now reached the proportions OF an
attempted dictation and an insult to the
American people,, which they should
promptly and effectually resent.--St. Paul
Globe. -~-, f. 49, -.
After that read this from General
Luke Wright, southern democrat.
governor general Of the Philippines;
The effect. Of the continued. discussion
as to the capacity of the Filipino for self
government and his immediate or ultimate
independenc5v is having it's effect here and
makes our task more difficult = than it
otherwise would be. The less man is
equipped with intelligence and those quail
tiles which make for good citizenship, the
more easily can he be persuaded that he
is the possessor of all these qualities.

full share of reckless half formed char
acters who are ready for intrigue in any
direction which promises them profit ol

A Test Case.

When you get down to the bottom
facts you will discover that the recent
sensational developments in the repub-
ican state central committee are due
to the fact that on his first speaking
trip into the western part of the state
Senator Nelson discovered a condition
Of things which satisfied him that the
head of the republican ticket was
beaten and beaten badly, unless some
thing could be done to stem the tide
of sentiment against him. The senator
came back to st. Paul, read the riot act
to the arrogant novices who have been
conducting the campaign up to date,
and proceeded in his vigorous and as
sertive fashion to straighten things out
as far as possible.
Altho the returns from the primaries
showed Senator Clapp to be almost a
sure winner in the legislature, so far
as nomination of friends by the repub-
licans is concerned, the disaffection
against the republican candidate for
governor appeared to Senator Nelson
so strong as to threaten the legislature,
and he proceeded to get busy, not be-
cause he loved Dunn, but because he
wanted to make the election of his col
league sure. He is responsible for the
installation of Mr.. Martin as manager
of the Dunn campaign. AS to what
Inducements he was able to hold out
they were alluring must be concluded,
for it is hardly possible that any slight
consideration could have induced Mr..
Martin to place himself in the position
which he now occupies before the re.
publicans of the state, assuming that
acting from principle.
4 u How much Mr.. Martin can do for the
benefit Of the head Of the state ticket
remains to be seen. But that Senator
Clapp and. the balance of the state
ticket are in danger from the disaffec

the st. Petersburg Journal says that the
movement Is -''actuated by desire to
save Japan from disaster. The czar's
expressions in his letter to General Grip
penberg, assigning him to command of
the second Manchurian army the paper
asserts, "shows that the intention of
Russia Is to attain the only possible set
tlement Of the war with an arrogant and
treacherous enemy, namely, full and
final victory" From this Is seems that
Russia has not yet been sufficiently
shown.
