Congressman Burke of Pittsburg
will introduce into the house an
amendment to the naturalization bill
making it compulsory upon all for
eigners who become citizens of this
country to adopt pronounceable
names in the place of those conun-
drums which some of them bring over
with them. For instance, should a
mans name be Zrodzinski, Cjagger-
owiskowitz, or something of that sort,
he would be compelled to abandon it
for Smith or some other familiar
name. The trouble with this PROPOSE
ton is that foreigners who possess
such highly distinguished names think
more OF their genealogical trees than
theysdo.of American citizenship, and,
rather than dispense with them, would
prefer to remain aliens.

In last weeks U n O we put forth
the contention that the dissolution O.
the paper trust would have no more
effect upon the operation of the com
bine so far as prices are concerned
than the "busting' of the railroad
merger. AS tending to substantiate
this contention we reproduce the fol.

At the solicitation of Governor
John the capitol commission has is
sued orders that no more onions or
boiled cabbage be served in the state
house cafe. While Governor John en-
tertains no objections to lutefsk or
broiled Swedish herring, the odors
from onions and boiled cabbage which
float about in the capitol corridors jar
his olfactory nerves. It is now ex.
pected that, in retaliation, the lessee
OF the cafe will put forth strenuous
effort to have the stencil emanatinp
from the kitchen where the cabinet
deliberates removed.

Governor Cummings of Iowa, who
is suffering from an affection of the
throat which it is said will preclude
his contemplated spellbinding in the
coming campaign, has called up the
shades of Vansant to do the jollying
in his stead. It would not surprise US
to at any moment learn that the little
buffer had changed his legal address
from Minnesota to Iowa, and Gov
ernor Cummings should not be sur
prised if he discovers that while on
the stump the abandoned derelict en-
braces the opportunity afforded to
boost himself.

The report of the customs commits
sioner at Niu-Chang is interesting as
showing how the Japs have cleaned
the Russians out of Manchuria by
making life to them a burden. The
report states that in 1895 the total
number of foreigners residing there
was 222, of whom II were Japanese,
with no Russians: in 1900 the number
of foreigners was 1854, of whom 80
we're Japanese and 1,760 Russians,
while in 1905, after the war, the num-
Der of foreigners was 1869, of whom
7 ,4OS were Japanese, and only one
Russian.

More trouble in Gov. Johnson's
kitchen cabinet. The governor sides
with his Irish insurance commissioner
as against his Swede fire marshal.
But the fire marshal has the courage
of his convictions. He says: "The re-
port I made is as complete as can be
obtained. It shows that Minnesota is
paying more for it's insurance than
other states, and the figures in this
case do not lie. 1 cannot help how

Upton Sinclair, who is about to
write sequel to 1.-The Jungle" treat
ing more exhaustively of conditions
in the Chicago packing houses, has
received several anonymous letters
warning him that should he make
further disclosures his life will be in
peril. The author refuses, however,
to be coerced. He states emphatically
in a press interview that he will fight
the packers to finish and that his
expose will contain no charges he is
unable to substantiate. Sinclair has
already published sufficient informa.
ton to produce nausea in manv a
copper-lined stomach, and the con
sumption of packing-house stuff has
in consequence of his disclosures
largely :. decreased. Among other
things his packing-house report shows
that hogs afflicted with cholera and
tuberculosis are chopped up for lard
that the conditions which exist in the
departments for sausagemaking are
anything but sanitary, while those in
the canning rooms are ,disgustingly
dirty; that the entire stockyards are
overrun with rats, which destroy large
quantities OF meat in the cooling
rooms, and that there is an entire for
getfulness Of sanitation. and tn,
ordinary decencies of cleanliness.

Being an Englishman, the suspected
bomb hurler was released by the
Madrid police upon intervention OF
the British embassy. Had he been of
some other nationality he would likely
ere this have had his wind choked off
by the garrote. Hamilton's release
is said to be due to the generosity of
the queen of Spain, who refused to
entertain the belief that one of her
countrymen would attempt her de-
struction, and consequently interceded
for him.

The fact that Butcher" Weyler, the
bloodthirsty, inhuman despot Of
Spain, was seriously injured in the
bomb explosion which recently de.
stroyed SO many lives in Madrid
seems to afford much consolation to
the Spanish soldiers who served un-
der that villain in Cuba. Weyler has
committed more atrocities than per.
haps any man living. His ambition
in life seems to have been to indis-
criminately butcher his fellow men.

H4LDEN FOR STATE 4UD1r0R.

H4LDEN FOR STATE AUDITOR.
Odin Halden of St. Louis county
will be candidate for the republican
nomination for state auditor. His
home county and practically all OF
the Eighth congressional district is
behind his candidacy; he has large
following in Ramsey and Hennepin,
and he has pledges of support from
every congressional district in the
state. 1t is predicted that he will be
nominated on the first ballot and have
votes to spare. There is no better
qualified man for the position in the
state than Odin Halden. His name
will strengthen the ticket in St. Louis
and all the northern counties. He has
enthusiastic friends in every county,
and they believe him when he SAYS:
"1f nominated and elected, every in
terest in the state, great or small, and
every citizen from the highest to the
humblest shall have a square DEAL"

Attorney General Sturdevant OF
Wisconsin has ruled that when man
becomes candidate for Office he is
forbidden, under the provision of the
statutes, to use mileage received in
exchange for contemporaneous adver-
Using. This ruling is hard hit at

tunate enough to harbor political as
pirations, for the majority of railroads
pay for advertising only in mileage.

From an irrefutable source comes
the information that Governor john
attention has recently been directed to
an item, alleged to have first made its
appearance in Mr.. O'Day's paper
wherein he (Mr. O'Day) makes a fero-
cious attack upon the travelling men.
It appears from our informant's state
ment that, when brought vis-a-vis with
the governor and directly charged
with this vote-killing act of ingrati-
tude, Mr.. O'Day denied the assertion
in toto. He endeavored to wriggle
out of the responsibility by attempting
to shelve the blame upon his editor,
whom, he said, reproduced the item
from some republican paper and failed
to give it credit. "Don't try to ex-
plain it away" calculated Governor
John; "you are responsible, and I de.
mand that you either retract this ne.
farious invective, and make ample
apology to the gentlemen who made it
possible for me to become chief ex.
ecutive of this great and glorious
state, or hand in your resignation. .
Angered at the menacing attitude as.
sumed by Governor John, Mr.. O'Day
left the room and slammed the door.
