FOSTER VERY CONFIDENT.

FOSTER VERY CONFIDENT.
A. F. Foster OF Litchtield, candidate
for the republican nomination for con-
gress, was interviewing voters Of this
vicinity between trains last Tuesday,
and found considerable sentiment in
his favor, says the New Paynesville
Press, republican paper. Mr.. Foster
says that Congressman Buckman's
record as pine grabber and the re-
cent polite invitation forwarded to
him by the attorney general to come
to st. Paul and pay IS, 600 for timber
taken several years ago is being TAX
en- notice of by the people of the dis
trict very much to his (Foster's) ad-
vantage. This. coupled with the facts
that Mr.. Buchanan publicly pro.
missed two years ago to not DO a
candidate this year makes Mr.. Foster
feel confident that he will become the
chosen candidate Of the party. As to
Mr.. Buckman's boast that he has &C.
cured great number Of mail routes
Mr.. Foster answers that comparative
~ as many routes have been estab-
lished in every district in the state as
In this and that meme of the other con-
gressmen have thought of calling at

CARLYLE AS A CRITIC.
GAGE Had Pronounced Views as to
Leading Literary Men.


In his recently published letters
Carlyle gives his views as to various
men of letters of his time. He calls
Tennyson "a very clever man" and
zone of the powerfulest smokers
ever worked along with in that de-
partment." Ruskin, though "a bottle
Of beautiful soda water" was very
pleasant company now and then" Ma
caulay he considered REALLY good
sort of SOUL" The lecture to Brown
ing, whom he strongly advised to try
prose for a time, is rather amusing.
UNLESS I very greatly mistake, you
seem to possess a rare spiritual gift,
poetical, pictorial, intellectual, by
whatever name we may prefer to call
It; to unfold which into articulate
clearness is naturally the problem Of
all problems for you. This noble en-.
dowment, it seems to me, further, you
are not at present on the best way Of
unfolding-and if the world had loud

ANNOUNCEMENT OF WITH
DRAWAL OF CANDIDACY.

UhAWAL VI CANU1DAC1.
I hereby announce my withdrawal
from the candidacy for the democratic
nomination for superintendent Of
schools of Morrison county, which
was subject to the democratic votes,
at the primaries, in favor Of Mr..
Theodore Ortmann. My object in SO
doing. since Mr.. Ortmann was deter
mined to run, was to avoid any pos
sible bitter feelings which might
have arisen in the contest for nomina-
tion and thus split the ranks of the
democratic voters at the election.
Furthermore take this opportunity
to extend my sincere thanks to all
who have manifested interest and
sympathy in my cause, by their en-
couragement and loyal support, es-
pecially to the good people of Belle
Prairie, Ripley, Pierz and vicinity,
whom I have had occasion to visit
during my short canvassing period,
and who adopted my cause with
good will and enthusiasm. Urging
all democrats to remain steadfast to
the noble banner of democracy, and
at the coming election to vote the
straight democratic national. state,
and county tickets,
am yours respectfully,
Felix A. Boyer.

DAVIS NOT HOSTILE TO LABOR.
Roanoke. Va, August 1s.-The
following letter from 81. g. Davis,
the democratic candidate for vice
president, has been made public here !:
Elkins. Va, August 10, 1904.
Mr.. /. V. johnson. Roanoke, Va:
My dear Mr.. Johnson-I am glad to
have your letter calling my attention
to the publication placing me in an
attitude Of hostility to the laboring
class. No one who knows me personal.
ly or is at all acquainted with the cir
oumstances Of my life will put any
credence in the statements to which
you refer. I think I can well claim
that I belong to the laboring class. Fol-
many years worked in the ranks as a
wage Garner and know what it is to
earn my living by the sweat Of my
brow.
On the other hand, I have been q
large employer Of labor, In railroads.
coal mines, lumber mills. etc, and
have never had any serious trouble
with our men. can recall but two
instances in which there were strikes,
and these were of short duration and
peacefully settled. No man has ever
been discharged from our service be-
cause he was a union man, or been
evictsd, from a company's house fol-
any reason. I think you will find that
the conditions of the railroad man
and the miners in connection with the
enterprises I have directed will com.
pare most favorably with those in
other localities Of the country.
I have always believed, and my con.
viction came from the hard school of
experience, that, measured by the
character OF the work he doee and the
cost of living, every man ia entitled
to the full compensation for his ser.
vices.
I am charged with having instituted
proceedings which led to an injunction
against strikers by Judge Jackson Of
this state. The fact is I had nothing
whatever to do with the case and
knew nothing about the matter until
l read Of it in the newspapers. The
injunction did not apply to the men In
our employ nor any portion Of them in
anyway. On the contrary, I remem.
Der on one occasion one of our super.
intendent suggested an injunction
against our men, and I declined tt
consider it.
(Signed)
81. G. DAVIS.

THE REPUBLICAN CONGRESS
SIGNAL FIGHT.

The REPUBLICAN CONGRESS
SIGNAL FIGHT.
Park Rapids Enterprise, Rep. AS
far az the Enterprise has been able to
learn of the situation throughout the
district there Is strong undercurrent
that Ia decidedly in favor of Foster.
He has short but telling platform OF
his own on which he stands that the
people takes stock in. In few words,
without any preamble or fol-de-rol of
any sort he declares for the election of
United States senators by the direct
vote Of the people; that trusts should
be prohibited; that the tariffs should
be revised wherever they can be and
maintain the protection Of American
Industries that the tariff on lumber
should be taken off :; that the fullest
reciprocity practicable with other
nations should be established.
It is probable that q vigorous cam
paign will be carried on by both can
dldates from this time until the close
of the primaries. Mr.. Foster has the
hearty support of the people of
Meeker county where he lives and is
very confident that he will poll a
much larger vote everywhere than he
did two years ago. If so he will be
the next republican congressman
from this district. In Hubbard coun-
ty he is likely to have a good vote,
and parties who are conversant with
me situation in Wadena. Todd and
Cass counties say that the woods and
prairies are full of Foster men. He is
a special favorite with the q. A. R..
men, and by his straightfor ward ap-
peal to the people themselves is win
ming his way and is likely to furnish
another bigger surprise party to Mr..
Buchanan than he did two years ago.
