over committee assignments, and:

proves that no matter what OPP
portunities might come to that
party, its leaders are so hope
lessly at variance with each
other on nearly every issue of
national Importance that they
would be totally unable to place
the party doctrines in legislative
enactments. This has for years
been the great stumbling block
of the democratic party. A
democratic house elected for the
specific purpose of lowering the
tariff, was compelled to accept
such a monstrosity from dem
ocratic senate that democratic
president refused to sign the bill
because it was a protectiv e
measure for favorite industries
On the money question they have
been so hopelessly divided that
Bourke Cochrane Of New York,
who is anxious to succeed Mr..
Williams as the minority leader,
in the 1900 campaign supported
Palmer and 'Bucker, against
Mr.. Bryan. Now comes a rank
party difference on rate legisla-
ton. the canal question, control
of the trusts and many other
questions that must receive con-
gressional attention within a
short time. The party in word
is unable to stand on it's own
platform, the Individual opinion
Of the member is superior to the
opinion of the party, and selfish
ness often takes the place Of
party interests. These are the
reasons why the party has never
been able to influence legisla
ton, and the recent events in
the house would indicate that
Ephraim is still joined to his
idols.

OFFICIAL PAPER OF THE COUNTY AMI
THE CITY OF DEVILS LAKE.
A YEARS PROSPERITY.

The year just closing has been
one of. marked prosperity for
Ramsey county. While the crop
this year was not an extraordi-
nary one, it was a good money
maker, and following the bum
per crop of last year, has put the
farmers in splendid financial
condition. A large number of
splendid farm dwellings hive
been erected, some of the best
barns in the state have been
built, hundreds of pianos and
other luxuries have been placed
in the homes Of our citizens,
bank accounts have been in
creased, and hundreds of acres
Of land have been added to the
. holdings Of the farmers. The
farmers of this county have ac-
,cepted these conditions of pros
perity as matters Of fact, and
they cause no more than passing
notice. They are every day
events. IL. ~
The tide of immigration has
not been what some of our sister
counties have experienced, but
our home people, approaching
the value of Ramsey county
lands, have not sought to make
sales to people from a distance.
On the contrary, our own people
nave in nearly every land sale,
held options of two and three
years standing. The land is
changing merely because the
vendors have accumulated a suf-
ficient amount OF wealth to justi-
fly, them in retiring. These
marks Of prosperity have been
very pronounced during the past
year. The business interest has
shared in this general prosperity.
People have bought more and
better goods. They have re-
CURED more for their enlarged
business coalitions, and this has
built up the business interests.
Altogether, while we have not
enjoyed a boom, the year has
been one to make the average
man feel that it is good to be a
citizen of Ramsey county.

CONNELL ENTERS DEMURRER
Holds Two Complaints in Howell Rose
water Case Radically Different
CAN FIND NOTHING THAT is uBELoUS
Judge Day of the District Court
Takes Under Advisement De-
murrer of the De
fendani.

Attorney w. ]. Connell, for Edward
Rosewater, entered a demurrer to the com
plaint Of the state In the case for alleged
criminal libel brought by r. b. Howell
Judge Day heard the arguments of Mr..
Connell and County Attorney Slabaugh and
took the question under advisement
. At. the outset of the hearing Mr.. Connell
withdrew the plea of not guilty, heretofore
entered and argued for the sufficlency of
the demurrer. Comparing the complaints
as they appear, one filed in the county
court and an entirely different one in the
district court, he questioned the propriety
Of such a changing of position by the
county attorneys office. After reading the
three lines alleged to contain the libel Mr.
Connell asserted that the complaint based
thereon is fatally insufficient. He contended
that by no possible twisting of language or
distortion of meaning could the printed
matter be made to measure UP to the innu-
endo given It by the complainant and by
the state in its two complaints.
There is in the printed article no men
tion Of bribery or of receiving anything"
said Mr. Connell. "The strongest word
used has an entirely different meaning than
the word bribery. 1t has a meaning that
is fixed and well understood by every man.
It cannot be contorted into q. term OF con-
tempt, ridicule or disgrace when applied to
the complainant or anybody else"
Citing the decision in the Dietrich case,
Mr.. Connell said he desired the court to
examine 1t. The court would find, he said,
that when Mr.. Howell alleges he was
libeled a member of the legislature he
was not in fact a member of that BODY,
having not yet been sworn in or taken
the oath as such. But, aside from that,
he felt sure that examination of the mat
ter complained of and of the two widely
differing complaints would convince the
court that there is no ground for basing a
complaint for libel as set by the state.
County Attorney Slabaugh took the posi-
tlon that the substance of the two COM
plants is the same. He ignored the totally
different language and charges. Anyway,
he held the innuendo in the complaint will
stand against the demurrer. He held the
Dietrich case not in point and cited sew
eral authorities to sustain his position
that the complaint is sufficient and that the
part of the article complained of which is
set forth is libelous. Mr.. Sabaugh said HI
| desired to submit a brief, and Mr.. Connel
was willing, if he can see the same in or
| der to reply.
