Democra tic Managers Excited.

Well-informed politicians, Demo-
Gratis as we'll as Republicans, never
took the Johnson boom seriously, and
expected that it would collapse sooner
or later, like punctured toy balloon.
It was only question of time, and
the surprise generally expressed is
that the collapse has come SO soon.
The Democratic managers have been
disappointed most of all in their an
ticipation of the Republican detection.
They reckoned that the people of
the State would not have time to
learn the falsity of the malicious re-
ports circulated about Mr.. Dunn,
and that many good Republicans
would vote for a Democrat candidate.
This was their only excuse for making
a campaign. Mr.. Johnson, they rec
ognlzed, possessed no particular
qualities that commend him to the peo-
pie OF the State; they must have
known also that while in the senate
he did his best to defeat legislation
for the benefit Of the people. But it
made no difference who was the Dem
ocratic candidate nor whether the
Democratic party had any issues.
johnson was to slide into the COVER
nor's chair on a wave of Republican
detection, which never came
AT the same time the Republicans
OF the State began to realize the dan
ger OF electing a Democratic governor
and see into the schemes of the Demo-
cratic managers. The fact gradually
dawned on the Republicans that the
Democrats are playing for a bigger
stake than the governorship, and that
after electing Johnson they hoped to
GUST Senator Nelson with John Lind
of Minneapolis, whose espousal of the
cause OF Johnson, his bitter political
enemy: coupled with his refusal to run
for governor, member Of congress and
justice of the supreme court, cor
roborated the belief of well-informed
politicians that he was after Senator
Nelson's scalp. 2
The adage of Abraham. Lincoln
struck the Republicans with especial
force: "You can fool some of the
people all the time and all Of the peo-
pie some of the time, but not all Of
the people all the time.'' Republicans
were not to be fooled by the reports
Of the public examiner. The truth was

THE POTATO ROT.
Is 1t Recurrence of the Disease That
Nearly Exterminated Tubers Some

Is it Recurrence of the Disease That
Nearly Exterminated Tubers Some
Years Ago?
The farmers of the northwest parti-
cularly, and practically the farmers
OF the country, are interested in the
appearance of rot on potatoes and
the matter is being given careful at
tention by the experimental farms.
In this locality, the presence of rot in
potatoes is laid to the excessive moist
ure of last year and this, and farmers
say tubers raised in low ground are
affected much worse than those on
high land. That on the very high
land there is an almost total absence
of rot. It is possible and probable
that this is the true reason, yet atten-
ton has been called to the fact that
years ago in Ireland, potato rot, ap-
parently the same as is now troubling
the buyer and farmer, made it's APP
pearance! in Ireland, came across the
Atlantic to the New England coast,
and all but the very earliest varieties
were lost: and potato culture and
raising was abandoned. It was some
years before the raising of potatoes
was successfully taken up again, and
it is this that causes some apprehen-
sion.-Anoka Union

IN OMITTED REFERENCE.

The anti-Dunn papers have been
continually quoting the act Of 1895
regulating the sale of pine stumpage.
timber trespass, etc. They have
quoted the law many, many times, but
never once have they referred to that
section authorizing and empowering
the governor to employ a special esti-
lnator, appraiser or agent any time he
sees fit to examine into trespass con-
ditions, or the condition of any min
eral land on school sections. The law
authorizes the payment of the expense
out of the governors contingent
fund. The governor is directed bv
statute to make Investigations on his
own account as one of the executive
officers OF the State, wherever he
deems it his duty. This portion of
the law would imply that the legisla-
ture when it framed that act made it
incumbent on the governor, and in
fact expected him to at least have a
casual familiarity with State timber
transactions. It does not appear that
Gov. Van SAINT ever informed himself
on these matters. He waited until his
hired bank examiner furnished the
information for political purposes.
It does not appear that John Lind
when governor ever sent any special
agent to check up Mr.. Dunn, as it
was his duty to do if he thought Mr..
Dunn ''recklesss" and incompetent.
When Lind was governor he much re-
sembled a dead Indian but now it is
quite different is very bad In
dian, under the influence of political
fire water. None of the Dunn
knockers, either Democrats or
Republicans, ever questioned Mr..
Dunn's integrity as auditor until they
were forced to trump up some charges
against him: not that they had a de-
sire to save the State any money, but
simply because they wanted to blacken
Mr.. Dunn S official character for polit-
ical reasons. Mr.. Dunn while audit
or made several reports to the legis-
lature on matters pertaining to his
Office, and many times he referred
openly and frankly to trespass mat
tiers, stating to the legislature the alb
solute impossibility of detecting all
trespassers without an army of cruis-
ers, and the nature of the trespass.
small cuttings here and there on iso-
lated tracts of State pine in most
cases by settlers, and small jobbers,
where actual proof of the amount of
trespass would be an impossibility.
No Legislature ever questioned Mr..
Dunn's record in trespass matters.
nor did the special legislative com
! mittee find that he had not done the
very best he could under the circum-
stances. It remained for one Sam
Johnson, as green on stumpage and
trespass matters as a Guinea pig. to
discover that Mr.. Dunn had lost
thousands of dollars to the school
fund of the State. 1t finally remained
for John Lind to discover that Mr..
Dunn was "reckless' in the discharge
! of the duties of his Office, after Mr..
Lind had been retired from the office
OF governor by the people of the
State. It was all spectacular and all
for political effect, but r. C. Dunn
will be elected governor by the people
who take no stock in Sam johnson,
political hireling, or John Lind, the
politician.
