hoped that this would not De the

for some weeks that Governor
La Toilette was the popular
choice of the people FOR Senator,

help but elect him. The TINES

on account of his policies, and
not that we lacke d appreciation

THE jury in the famous New
Ulm murder case has disagreed,
and Doctor Koch, accused of hav
ing brutally and foully murdered
his competitor in business, DR..
L. A. Gebhardt, will again have
to face a jury and prove his in
nocence. The jury is reported
to have stood nine for acQuittal
to three for conviction. The
case will likely be removed to
ST. Paul or Minneapolis, where
the new trial will be had. The
evidence against Kock was purely
circumstantial and no motive
for so foul a deco could be
suggested. AS in all such cases
there has been a widedivergence
of opinion as to the part DR..
Koch played in the case, many
people who read the testimony
believing he was entirely limo
cent, while others were pro
nounced in their condem nation,
and believe that a halter would
be the only proper treatment for
the accused.

THE RUSSIANS AND THENOBILITY,

The S tr eetS OF st. Peters OufS
have run red with blood since
Sunday; one hundred thousand
wor ling men out Of employ ment
have appealed to their EN- peror
to receive their petition for a
liberal form of government.
With their wives and children
these men marched on to the
royal palace on Sunday last and
asked that the Gar might receive
them and listen to their prayers.
But although ab solutely assured
of his personal safety the auto
crat refused to present himself,
butinstead sent forth his soldiers,
who fired into the crowds, killing
hundreds of men, women and
children. In Russia the auto,
cracy rules absol utely while the
common people have absolutely
no rights. or voice in government.
The great labor troubles in the
capitol have reduced them almost
to starvation, and in this time of
absolute heIplessness they ap-
pealed to their "Divine, Father to
help them. And the ''help" they
received was to be massacred.
What crowd of wOrkmen in
America could ever be denied a
peaceable audience with the head
of our government. Any re-
spectacle delegation that might
be denied an audience with the
President of the United States,
Emperor of Germany, King
of England, would Immediately
command the sympathy of
all their cOuntrymen, ana IN
Russia, where the most absolute
despotism has prevailed for
countless centuries there is a
revolt in consequence of the auto
Gratis position that threatens the
government. Aud should it
happen that the people would
rise in masses and overthrow the
blue blooded devils who have
made the name of Russia stencil
to the nostrils of the whole civil
Lied world, it would be the
greatest stroke for civilization in
the century. Rich and fertile
Russia is at the absolute mercy
of the worst crowd of bandits
that ever held control over any
uation. The people have been
kept so in ignorance and poverty
that they may not be able to
throw off the heavy yoke that has
oppressed them for so many
centuries; and it is too bad that
the government of Russia could
not be transferred to a class of
people who live in America,
where there would be a few
powerful explosions that would
blow the whole aristOcratic
paraphenalia into Kingdom Come
in less than a week. Russia is a
country where absolute despot,
ism rules, and where there is not
a trace Of popular government.
1t is a country without a constl-
tuition, where the horrors Of it's
extreme measures have served
as a shock to the civilized world.
The blood that has flowed in ST..
Petersburg has been that of
patriots, and the time Is surely
coming-it may be now or it may
be in latter years, when the
people of this country, made so
rich by nature. and so poor by
it's rulers, will throw off the de-
based form of government that
rules it, and start towards an up
ward course, instead of becoming
worse as each year rolls by.
O. - not help but sympathize
with the shouts of the MOB in
the capitol, when they shouted:
'Down with tyranny; down with
the Gar. "
