The republicans of Minnesota are
firm believers in the policy of re-
ciprocity, which is tariff revision
in its most scientific form. Every
time reciprocal treaty is wisely
entered into our markets are ex-
tended There is nothing so value
less to the possessor as commod-
ity for which he has no market. 1t
is simply an incumbrance instead of
an asset, and the more extensive the
market the greater it's value. The
productive capacity of the country
is absolutely unlimited. When
fully developed we can supply the
world with food, clothing and all
kinds of manufactured articles,
build and equip its railroads, erect
its bridges and warehouses, furnish
machinery to harvest and thresh it's
crops. All we want is the oppor-
tunity. Reciprocity creates this
opportunity. 1t is the great inter-
national highway over which trade
travels. If the next state republi-
can convention does not adopt a
ringing reciprocity plank it will not
represent the sentiments of Mime
sofa republicans.

the interests of the people from the
encroachment of corporate greed"
is another mastery phrase. What
the people wanted to know was;
Does Mr.. Dunn consider the form
alton of the Northern Securities
Company and the attempted consol-
idation of parallel and competing
railway lines, in direct opposition
to the laws of the state of Mime
sofa and in opposition to principle
of common law as old as the history
of English Jurisprudence ''an en-
croachment of corporate greed on
the the interests of the peoplep'
This question has been put to him a
hundred times. He has not ans
wered it. Will he answer it, and
if not, why?
Gin conclusion, l think my rec
ord in the legislature and in the
state auditors Office, which is an
open book, should be guarantee
that l will discharge the duties of
the office of governor in an intelli-
gent and business-like manner. If
nominated and elected, l pledge
myself to devote my entire time
and attention to the faithful per-.
Torrance of the duties of the posi-
ton"
1t is all right for man to toss
boquets at himself, sometimes that
is the only way he can ever get
them. The voters are not so much
interested in what Mr.. Dunn has
done as what he will do if elected
governor. There are three ques-
tions that overshadow all others in
the minds of the voters of this state.
The United States Senatorship, the
merger question and that of taxa
ton.
Every one knows that the Gov
ernor exercises a powerful influence
in the election of Senator. Every
one who knows Mr.. Dunn knows
he will use it for some one. He
did when he was State Auditor.
He will not be made over new if he
is elected Governor. He will be
the same old Bob. Dunn, for whom
will he use this influence? The
voters have right to know. Will
he furnish them the information?
The voters endorsed Gov Van
SAINTS course on the merger by ST..
900 majority. Did Mr.. Dunn en-
dorse it at the time it was iusti-
tuted? Does he endorse it now?
Should he be elected Governor and
similar circumstances arise would
he pursue a similar course? Moth
ing in his statement furnishes any
information on this point. Will he
furnish any,.
There is crying demand for a
careful systematic revision of our
tax-laws, in order that all classes of
property may be subject to equal
taxation, if he is placed in posi-
ton to do so will he recommend
such legislation and use all his in
fuence to secure it?
Does he believe the state conven-
ton should take any stand on ma
tional questions and if so what
stand should it take? These state
ments of Mr.. Dunn's are simply an
aggregation of pretentious phrases,
a clever combination of glittering
geperalities, intended to tickle the
fancy without binding the candidate
and most skillful evasion of the
live issues In which the voters of
the state are interested.

r. G. DUNN'S ANNOUNCEMENT.
In the last issue of the Princeton
Union r. G. Dunn makes formal
announcement that he is a candi-
date for Governor and issued the
following statements:
l.
81 am candidate for the Repub-
lican nomination for governor of
Minnesota and l respectfully solicit
the support of all Republicans and
my fellow-citizens generally"
We would like to know what
reason republican candidate for
the nomination has for ''soliciting
the support" of democrats and pop
ulists to aid him in securing it.
II.
''No man is big enough to die
tate platform for the Republican
party of Minnesota. The party,
through it's representatives in con-
vention assembled, will formulate a
platform upon which l will square
ly stand. The combined wisdom
of the Republican party of the state
is better than the judgment of any
individual member of the party"
Quite true, but every republican
has the right to say what he thinks
the platform should contain and it
is the duty of the candidates so to
do. One who is afraid to state his
position on public questions for
fear they will not jibess with the
platform is a political weakling,
and it strikes us man wants Office
mighty bad who will unequivocally
pledge himself to stand on a plat
form before he knows what it con-
tains. 1t is plain declaration he
will stand for any old thing to get
the office.
81 heartily indorse and approve
the platform adopted by the Repub-
lican state convention of 1902"
Then why did he so strongly crit.
icise the officials selected by that
convention for vigon susly carrying
out the policy endorsed by it?
''The state board of control
should be absolutely divorced from
politics and the affairs CT the board
should be conducted on business
principles on broad gauge lines with
due regard to humanitarian fea-
lures: no niggardly policy should
be pursued"
A self-evident proposition, but
when boards appointed by politi-
clans are "divorced from politics
politics Will have ceased to exist.
Y.
''One of my cardinal beliefs is
non-interference of the executive
with the Legislative branch of the
government, and the appointive
officers should eschew politics and
devote their energies to the per-
formances of their official duties.
Those who serve the state best will
serve me best"
Mere platitude, appointments are
always made from the. political
friends of the party making the ap-
pointment. There are, now, some
state appointive officers working
tooth and toe-nail to secure Mr..
Dunn's nomination, as they have
right to do, presumably with his
full knowledge and consent as we
have not heard any condemnation
of their course from him.
"The state should make liberal
provision for the reclamation of it's
swamp lands"
A good plank but not original
with Mr.. Dnnn, or copyrighted by
him.
- WI.
II pledge myself to observe and
enforce the law which gives to ex-
Union soldiers the preference to APP.

would be interesting in this con-
nection for Mr.. Dunn to state why
he did not follow this course when

Especial Correspondence to the HERALD
January 8, 1904.
Senator German, the democratic
leader, who is endeavoring to defeat
the Panama treaty, and thus defer
the construction of the canal, says
that he is in favor of digging it,
but that he wants it ''dug with
honor" The people, however, i'm
patient over such dilatory tactics;
want the canal dug with shovels,
and partisan opposition to this i'm
portant work will not have ten
dency to make converts to the dem
ocratic party. All who read the
Presidents frank special message
on the subject will be convinced
that the administration has acted
wisely, honorably and with great
tact in the Panama affair, and the
fact that every European country
has promptly recognized the new
republic tends to strengthen the
Presidents position. AS he we'll
says in his message, the only ques-
ton to be determined in the matter
is whether or not we want the
canal, and it is up to the democrats
to defeat or approve the project.
Ex-mayor w. H. Eustis, of Min
neapolis, is here for few days.
He intends to spend few days in
Porto Rico. Mr.. Eustis is always
gladly received by members of The
Minnesota colony in Washington,
as well as in all official circles.
If the plans of the leaders of the
majority party do not miscarry, the
present session of congress will be
both short and economical. The
Senate is usually the stumbling
block to early adjournments, be-
cause Senators like Morgan and, a
few others take up so much time in
useless talk. If this talk would
only occasionally result in some
good there might be an excuse for
it, but as a rule it either drives the
Senators out of the Senate chamber
or causes them to fall into
peaceful slumbers. 1t never in
fluences a vote. Some day the Sem
ate will doubtless limit debate and
thus expedite the transaction of i'm
portant business. While upon the
subject it may not be out of place
to repeat the comment made this
week by a visitor to the capitol.
He said that he had played in hard
luck, for whenever he had gone to
the House the Congressman whom
he desired to see was absent, and
when he went to the Senate he al
ways found Morgan delivering a
speech.

Recently there has been consider
able talk in congressional circles as
to the ACCESSIBILITY of disseminating
crop estimates on the part of the
government. 1t is claimed that in
recent years the tendency has been
to underestimate the cotton and
other important crops, thus en-,
couraging higher prices. On the
other hand many farmers of the
country have hitherto opposed the
publication of these estimates, be-
cause they believed that the figures
were published for the sole benefit
of spectators who desired to lower
prices. AS there are two sides to
the market the "bull''-and the
"bear," the opposition to crop es-
Inmates generally comes from the
fellow who can find nothing in the
figures to support his contentious.
1t is therefore safe to predict that
no action will be taken to curtall
this branch of government inquiry.
