IT HAS been a long time since
politics have been as strenuous
in Minnesota as they have been
for the past year. A year ago
the campaign for the nomination
of a republican candidate for gov
ernor was we'll nnder way while
Wall Street was making desper-
ate attempts to find a republican
to oppose Roosevelt. From that
time to this there has been a
perfect turmoil of politics. If
the officers, big and little, after
they get in, exert one tenth of
the effort that has been put forth
to elect them during the past
twelve months-if they exert
one tenth of this effort in the
faithful discharge of their duties
we shall be the best governed
people on earth.

SUBSCRIPTION SIS PER YEAR
The Law on Trial.

There can be no question that
there has been a considerable
change Of sentiment during the
past two months in regard to
the primary election law. This
is the laws second trial and We
are beginning to find out that
the law is having some effects
which it's makers never sus-
pected it would have. The theory
of the law is that the people shall
have an untrammeled opportunity
to nominate their candidates.
The law gives the opportunity
alright but it is beginning to be
dou btful whether theopportunity
is proving an unmixed blessing.
The law lays heavy expense on
the candidates, it affords oppor-
tunities for political jobbing
which are just as certain to de-
feat the popular will as was the
old system, it dominates men in
some cases by as low as twenty
per cent of the vote cast, it has
thus far failed to be taken adj
vantage of by the voters, not
more than sixty per cent of the
voters attending the primaries,
and it is surely disrupting the
different political parties. These
things are serious and unless il
can be clearly shown that the
law is resulting in better gov
eminent the general verdict after
the second test to be given the
law this month may be so un
favorable as to threaten the re-
peal of the law by the legislature
this winter.

Emergency Medicines.

1t is a great convenience to
have at hand reliable remedies
for use in cases of accident and
and for slight injuries and all
ments. A good liniment and one
that is fast becoming a favorite
if not a household necessity is
Cham berlain S Pain Balm. By
applying it promptly to a cut,
bruise or burn it allays the pain
and causes the injury to heal in
about one third the time usually
required, and as it is an antisep-
tic it prevents any danger of
blood poisoning. When Pain
Balm is kept at hand a sprain
may be treated before the in
famation sets in, which insures
a quick recovery. For sale by
Barker's drug store.

Horace Greeley Burt was elected
president of the Union Pacific in 189S
He has been prominent in the rail-
road world for many years. In 1873
he served as chief engineer of the I'm
ion Pacific. When he was called to the
presidency of the Union Pacific he was
holding the position of third vice presi-
dent of the Chicago & Northwestern
railway.
President Burt was appointed to his
present position in February, 1898,
shortly after the receivership Of the road
was dissolved. A large number of
changes and improvements have been
carried through by him, one of the
greater of which has been the expendi-
ture of over a million dollars in the con-
struction of new shops in Omaha. Pre-
vious to his appointment as president
of the Union Pacific system Mr.. Burt
was connected with the Chicago &
Northwestern road for nearly thirty
years. He served in the capacity of
chief engineer and general manager of
the Fremont, Eikhorn & Missouri Val
ley railroad, now part of the North
western system and was later made
vice president
President Burt had nothing to add to
the announcement already made of his
resignation beyond that he expected to
make his future and permanent home
in Omaha He also stated that he had
no plans for the future beyond his in
tentions of travelling for some time.
His communication to the board of
directors, it is said, mentioned no date
on which his resignation is to take eff
feet leaving the matter with the board
itself

REYES is WAITING.
Will Make No Move Until He
Gets an Answer.

Washington, Jan. General Reyes
ha snot yet received the reply of the
Washington government to his note in
which he officially charges the United
States with violating the treaty of 1876,
in preventing Colombian troops from
landing on the isthmus for the purpose
of putting down the rebellion. Until
he knows the character of this reply
and whether it precludes the exped-
iency of further pour parlers, General
Reyes can not fix the date for his de-
parture for home. If the answer gives
hope of any action by the United
States in the way of relief for Colom<
bia, however small, the negotiations
probably will continue. If the note be
final in its refusal to consider any of
the proposals of General Reyes, it will
in the eyes of Colombia assume the
form of an ultimatum and General
Reyes and DR.. Herren will lose no time
in leaving the country. Their depart
ure will mark the suspension of diplo-
matte relations between the two coun-
tries
