Our Frank

The St. Louis correspondent
Of the ST. Paul Pioneer Press
gives the following pen picture
of r. F. Pettigrew, the democra-
tic boss of South Dakota. It is
very life like, and will be readily
recognized by republicans, pop
ulists or democrats:
Ex-senator Pettigrew of South Da-
kota, champion political tumbler of
the age, is down here paving the air
and splitting fire. AS is his habit,
Pettigrew is identified with q lost
cause. On this occasion he is tied up
with Mr.. Hearst of New York, Petit
grew is a mystery to those who meet
him for the first time. When he
smiles he shows his teeth, and each
word is a short quick bark. The
| South DakOtan resembles a Moorish
pirate or a porch climber, and such is
his position in politics. He started
out in life as a republican. He drifted
into the democratic party, then be-
came a %populist, and o he is back
with the democrats. If Parker is
nominated he threatens to bolt, but
where he will land no one is able to
predict. Republicans are fearful that
he may support Roosevelt and Fair
banks. Pettigrew holds the South
Dakota democrats here in the hollow
of his hand. None of them dares tc
make any statement without first con
sulting Pettigrew, and until Pettigrev
pulls the string not q whisper is heard
around the state headquarters.

Charles Warren Fairbanks, the run.
ning-mate of Roosevelt, comes from a
long line of New England ancestry.
Jonathan Fayerbanke having settled
in that section about II years after
Boston was founded. Mr.. Fairbanks
was born IN the traditional log cabin,
in Union county, Ohio, where he grew
up an average farmer boy. 1t was
here that he learned his earliest les
ons in Republican principles, for his
father was a strong a~nti-slavery man
and gave employment and shelter to
fugitive slaves. At Is years of age
Fairbanks entered the Ohio Wesleyan
college, where he graduated after a
hard struggle to win an education.
He often worked at manual labor after
school hours to support himself. Hav-
ing graduated he went to Pittsburg,
where he worked for the Associated
Press and studied law, but after a year
or more he returned to Ohio, settling
at Cleveland. He completed his stud
les; was admitted to the bar, and then
married Miss Cornelia Cole, a young
woman he had met and loved at col
lege. He located at indianapolis, and
hung out his single in 1874.
He became interested in politics and
did much toward causing the over
whelming Republican majority in In
diana in 1896. In 1897 he was made U.
S. senator. In the senate Mr.. Fair
banks vas placed al the head of the
committee on immigration and rem
dered valuable services there.
Senator and Mrs. Fairbanks have 5
children, 4 of whom are boys. The
senator's mother is still living, at the
advanced age of nearly 80 years. Mrs.
ington. She is president-general of the
Daughters of the American Revolution.

,ecretar., Hay who was the
: aaker at he 5Oth anniversary
LIBERATION of the founding of
j1e republican party, delivered
a splendid eulogy of the party
aud it's work from which we
take following except:
sour opponents sometimes say we
have no right to claim the credit of the
great deeds of the last half century
that we could not have accomplished
them without the aid of Democrats.
Nothing truer was ever said. The
principles upon which our party is
built are SO sound, they have SO ire
sistable an attraction to patriotic and
fair-minded men, that whenever a time
Of crisis mi when the national well
fare is clearly at stake, when voters
must decide whether they shall follow
their prejudices or their consciences,
we draw from other parties their best
men bv thousands.
"We are not claiming hat we mOnOp-
olize the virtue or the patriotism of the
country. There are good men in all
parties. l know far better men than l
am who are democrats. But we are
surely allowed, in a l~ove-feast like this,
to talk of what has been done by the
family and at least to brag a little of
the democrats who have helped us.
We get their votes for one reasOn only
because we started right and in the
main have kept right. We invite ac-
cession from the ranks of our patriot
ic opponents, and we shall get them in
the future, as we have in the past,
whenever we deserve them.
"We could desire no better fortune,
in the campiign upon which we are
entering, than that the other side
should persist in their announced in
tention to make the issue upon Presi-
dent Roosevelt. OF gentle birth and
breeding, yet a man of the people in
the best sense: with the training OF
a scholar and the breezy accessibility
of a ranchman: a mar of the library
and a man of the world: an athelete and
a thinker: a soldier and a statesman;
a reader, q writer and a maker OF his
tory with the sensibility of a poet and
the steel nerve of n rough rider; one
who never did, and never could, turn
his back on a friend Or ar enemy. A
man whose merits are so great that he
could win on his merits alone: whose
personality is SO engaging that you
lose sight of his merits.
SIN Our form of government there
must be two parties, and tradition, cir
cumstances, temperament, will always
create sufficient opposition. But what
young man would not rather belong to
the party that does things, instead of
one that opposes them; to the party
that looks up. rather than down: to
the party of dawn rather than of the
sunset.

What will be the total vote
cast in this years presidential
election? Will it reflect the large
increase in population, due to
naturalization, shown by the
monthly census reports and in
the courts, or will it be less in
1904 than in the election of four
years ago, az the vote of 1900
was less than in 1896?
In 1884 the total vote was
10, O68, 600.
In 1888 the total vote was
II, 1892, 600.
In 1892 the total vote was
II, $50, 900, a substantial increase,
partly accounted for by the ad-
mission of new states.
In 1896, in an election of more
than average Importance and
after a campaign of unusual
vigor, the vote was 14,07O,O 600.
In 1900 the total vote was
ID, 967. 900, q decrease from that
of four years before.
Since 1900 no new states have
been admitted. In several states
since 1900 disfranchising cleo
ton laws have been established
through constitutional provision.
In other states new conditions
of naturalization have been pro
vided. The acceptance of the
party primary as a substitute
for the election in those states
in which one party is in an over
whelming majority often dimin
ishes the total vote cast, the vote
at the primary being larger
usually, than the vote at thu
succeeding election.

FOR AN ARBITRATION TRIBUNAL.
Bill Provides for Membership to Be Ap-
pointed by the President.

Senator Cullom. by request of Volney W.
Foster. assistant treasurer Of the repub-
lican national committee, today introduced
a bill to create a national arbitration trI-
bunal. The bill was referred to the COM
mittee on education and labor, with a re-
quest for early cons!derat ton. 1t is provided
that q tribunal be appointed by the Presi-
dent, to consist of six members. one Of
whom shall be the Secretary Of Commerce
and Labor. Representative Foss introduced
the same bill in the House.
The tribunal Is to gain jurisdiction over
disputes between capital and labor by the
request Of either or both parties to the dis
pute, or by request made by the tribunal
When such request Is refused, that fact Is
to be made known to the public.
If the arbitration Of the tribunal is ac-
cepted, that acceptance binds the parties
to the dispute to abide by the award
Pending the consideration Of the matter
the parties are bound not to be participants
in a strike or lockout and il strike or
lockout has already taken place 1t Is to
cease pending the award. The Judgment of
the tribunal is to date back to the date of
the petition. The award must be either
positive or negative on every point raised !;
no neutral award to be made.
The tribunal Is to sit at Washington. al
though 1t may go to other points in case of
necessity. The President may add to the
tribunal for special cases. The only PEN
atty provided Is the appeal to public opin-
ion.

FORMAL RESPONSE NOT SENT.
Japan's Last Note to Russia a Pre-
liminary Message.

TOXIC. January 1.-THE note delivered
by Foreign Minister Komura on Saturday
to Baron de Rosen. the Russian minister,
was merely preliminary to Japan's formal
response. which has not yet been delivered.
The questions at issue were discussed at
today's conference Of the cabinet and elder
statesmen. and a final decision Is expected
tomorrow. When this has been reached
the conferees will appear before the throne
and submit the answer agreed upon. After
this has been done the final proposals Of
Japan will be handed to Baron de Rosen.
The cabinet and elder statesmen met for
joint conference at the afficial residence
of Premier Katsura this afternoon. The
premier. who is Ill. was not present They
discussed the political and strategical sit
uation. and will report to the throne to-
morrow.
Chinas decision to observe strict neutral
ity in the event of war between Russia and
Japan was taken partly on the advice Of
Japan. The latter pointed out that the war
could thus be localized. the disturbance Of
trade minimized. and that the dangers of
internal disorders in China. as we'll as need
less complications of China's finances
would be avoided.
