The following statement was made
by Attorney General Young yester-
day:
AS a result of the evidence secured
in tie examination of Mr.. Hill show
ing duplicate issues of capital stock
for the Great Northern's branch lines,
| am considering how to bring pro-
ceedings to compel the retirement of
one set of the stock, either that of the
branch line, which is still ahoat and
paying dividends, or that of the main
line, issued for the purpose of buying
up the subsidiary company.
'sThe people are now paying divi-
dends on this double capitalization,
and one or the other issue is certainly
water. I believe the company can be
made to retire it. It also appears
that when new branch lines we're built
new stock was issued, but the lines
were built out of the Great Northern
surplus, and the stock is water.''
Issues of stock claimed to be edu-
plicated are:
For St. Paul, Minneapolis & Man
itoba, 100000
For Eastern Minnesota, stocks and
bonds, S25, 100000
For Willmar & Sioux Falls, s10,-
100000.

The Primary Election Law.

The late primary election has dis
closed numerous defects in the prim-
airy election law which the next legis-
nature should remedy.
First of all, the law should include
the state officers: either that or be
abolished.
Next the law should provide an OPP
portunity for the public to take the
initiative in putting forward eandi-
dates for nomination. AS the law is
now, the people have no chance to
choose the men they would like to vote
for. Only those who want to be cam
didates have the right to have their
names placed on the primary ballot
and the only right given to the voter
to make his choiceis from among those
who have put themselves forward.
This at BEST in most cases, gives very
limited opportunity for choice. AS a
rule it gives no opportunity for choice
| whatever.
Then some effective safeguard should
be devised against the now common
and prevalent practice which permits
the voters of one party to vote for the
candidates of another party. So long
as the nomination of a party candi-
date can be made by the voters OF
another party the system defeats its
purpose and becomes a farce-worse
than that, it too often results in fraud.
i There are other defects in the exist.
4 ing primary election law. In fact the
j list might include enough to leave lit
tie worth saving. But the defects
abovecited are especially conspicuous
, and if the primary election system i:
] to be continued they should be prompt
ly corrected --Luverne Herald.

Commenting upon the finger print
system, which has been adopted by the
war department as a means of insur-
ing the detection OF fraudulent enlist
ments and the Identification of desert
ers with great ease, Maj Gen. Aims
worth, the military secretary, in his
annual report says:
1.-THE finger prints of an unidentified
dead soldier in the field of battle will
establish his identity, and unknown
dead in the field should be thing of
the past.
THE finger prints of the former
soldiers will also serve as an infallible
means of Identification in the many
pension and other cases in which it be-
comes necessary to establish, to the
satisfaction of the government, the
identity of the applicants.
NelsOnism and his cureism is evil
IDENTIFY repugnant to the people of this
state, and if the election of United
States senator could be submitted to
the vote of the people he would not be-
gin to receive the vote that the repub-
lican candidate for governor did,
though he was defeated by over 10000
majority. He may through the money
power, the corporate interests, succeed
in being elected by the legislature, but
his election will be a staggering blow
to the republican party of the state,
and to carry him for six years longer
Will be a test which will try the large
majority in the state. Better take up
a new and aggressive man, one who
represents the interests of all the peo-
ple.-Martin County Independe ut.
When T. NJ. Roberts, the supply
man at Minneapolis, failed some
years ago, people were astonished to
learn that he owed manufacturers
large amounts for goods. Roberts
always sold for cash and it was sup
posed that he bought his goods for
cash. Now comes the Commercial
Bulletin with statement that Sears,
Roebuck & Co., of Chicago, owe
something over eleven millions of
dollars to tradesmen, customers, en-
ployees and in open accounts. The
firm has been trying to sell $4,000, 900
of preferred stock for some months
and has not met with very good sue
cess. The firm has been Offering to
take deposits from customers all over
the country and pay interest en- same
and has probably secured a large
amount of money, as the Bulletin
shows they owe customers and en-
ployees 50, 1874, 673.47. It seems like a
risky proposition for farmers to loan
money to a concern hundreds of miles
away and about which they know so
little, but it seems some do it.-Todd

Entered in the postoffice at NewUln,
Mimi, second class matter.
Many schemes are being proposed
with the aim of preventing cross vot-
ing in the primaries, and requiring
voters to stick to party lines in max
ing nominations. Most of the suggest
ed amendments impose extra duties on
the voter, and are, therefore, imprac-
ticable. A few, however, are worth
attention. !.
The final draft of the Crossley prim-
session of the Iowa legislature, had in
it a carefully devised plan for protec-
ton of party primaries. In brief, it
was as follows:
At the first primary election each
voter is allowed to state his party af-
fliation and receive the ballot of that
party. The party declaration is then
checked opposite the voters name on
the voting list, and when he comes to
the next primary he is given the ballot
of the same party to vote without ques
ton. If he wishes to change parties,
ne may do SO by filing awritten declar
alton with the county auditor thirty
days before the primary. The party
utilization opposite his name on the
voting list is then revised accordingly.
Under the Crossley bill voter might
still change his party utilization on
primary election day, but if he did
he was subject:te challenge and must
then take an :oa$h that he had in good
faith changed his party utilization. In
Minnesota we ssnew enough about the
practical Workings of the primary to
appreciate the danger of this loophole.
There would be no challenge and the
door would be wide open for democrats
to call for the republican primary bal
lot and vice versa. Tomake this scheme
effective, it would have to require the
thirty-day notice of change from one
party to another. That and the public
Registration Of party utilization would
constitute about as close restriction as
voters would be apt to need. Men who
change their party utilization at the
last minute are hardly entitled to take
part in a party nomination.
Every such scheme for registering
party utilization meets with objection
from those who prefer to be called in
dependents and declare that any re-
striction of their right to vote in prim
aries is an infringement on their rights.
Such DIRECTORS all lose sight of what
the primary is. It is not an election,
though it often has all the appearance
of one. It is substitute for the eau
Gus and convention system. No DEM
ocrat has a legal or moral right to
take part in a republican caucus or sit
as delegate in republican conven-
ton. Neither has voter any right
or claim to participate in the primaries
of any party except his own. If he has
no party principles, the thing for him
to do is to remain away from prim-
aries entirely, as he used to remain
away from the caucus. He has the
right now, as be had then, to exercise
his choice among the nominees at the
general election.-Minneapolis Jour-
nal.
