ever, manifest any great ambition
towards suggesting methods looking
in the direction of reducing public
burdens, such as eliminating useless
officials who must be paid by the
general tax paying class that do not
draw down the coin from the official

that our people will pocket the griev-

is, however, ons matter about which

time in some localities, when this
Commission, at the first sitting OF the
State Board of Equalization, exerted
itself towards tho lessening of rail-

tain daily newspapers come forward
with the remarkable assertion that the
terminal facilities of railroads in this
State, represent greater value than
the trackage. Can you not see the

Are We Verging On Dsspotism?

Hardly anybody will be surprised,
under the very strenuous national Adj
mlnistration that Secretary of State
Root should, in a public address an
nounce the no less startling, though
let US hope untrue statement, that
State lines under our form of govern
ment are steadily vanishing and the
trend of popular sentiment is towards
Capitalization of power under the
President. The only evidence of this
we can see is in the hayward nature OF
the Chief Executive, which is occas-
ionally manifested in official conduct,
that has been tolerated by the people
simply through the confidence OF sin-
certify implied 10y bold departures from
party creed and party leaders control.
But as Mr.. Roosevelt himself asserts
the plain belief, by flourishing his big
club over the heads Of our own citi.
zens, it may be we'll to pause and con-
slider how far such a political heresay
may be proclaimed without protest
from a free people. 1t has always
been understood that the club was
intended for outside barbarians; if,
however, it is the badge OF authority
over our own people, it may be we'll to
ascertain just how far the Civil war
has supplanted those rights reserved to
the States on entering the compact
OF Union. 1t certainly did not imply
absolute, dictatorial and autocratic
authority by the general government.
| 80, what better would it be than the
limited monarchies of the Old World
or with strenuous self opinionated
Chief Executive at its head, even the
absolute despotisms?

NOBLE WORK AS A REsCUER.-The
bark Coloma was wrecked Off the coast

through her efforts that boats were
dispatched to the wreck. A fund has
been raised in Seattle for a testimonial

Western Farmer and Dairyman =:
The recent Farmers institute held
March 14-16, at Worthington, which
is one of the best of our smaller
cities, surpassed the fondest expec-
tations IF her staunchest friends,
and fully sustained the reputation
OF, Worthington, al being one of the
best institute towns in the state.
The aggregate of the sessions was
2, 500 people, which was limited be-
cause of the capacity of the court
house. The merging Of Supt. o. e.
Gregg's two corps Of workers at
this meeting fttingly closed four
months of active campaigning in
stitute work. The attendance dur
ing these months of approximately
forty thousand of Minnesota's best
farmers, and the deep interest they
took in the sessions throughout,
speaks volumes for the advanced
position of the Bread and Butter
state. A gentleman in Mobiles
county assured US that in order to
see the best of farmers and live stock
men, one only has to look over the
audience composed of 500 earnest,
intelligent farmers who filed tire
court house at Worthington. This
excellent district is making rapid
strides along the lines of modern
agriculture. Fine herds of pure bred
horses, cattle, sheep and swine are
to be found within her borders that
do credit to their owners as we'll as
to the country. 49,.

Has a Fishy Flavor.

McCleary's press bureau has re-

This time the crafty politician 2
agents have caused the report to be

chairman Of the committee on ways

Cleary paraded up and down this
district and with great display 81
egotism told his audiences that he
was going to be appointed chairman
Of the committee on appropriations.
He was cock such that Speaker
Cannon would present him with the
place, but we all know what hap
pened. However, after the blow
fell, McCleary's henchmen in this
neck O. the woods bal the supreme
nerve to tell the public that your

craftsmanship, anyway. It was an
effort on their part to try to fool
the people into the belief that Nc
Cleary had never sought the place
and that he had been promoted to
the position ON the committee on
ways and means. The willy Nc
Cleary is up to his old tricks. He is
preparing the way for another

sent back to congressional he will

Citizen And Socialist.

, y . tt u Nj
The main reason why there are
go many budding socialists il these
days is because there arc 60 many
bad citizens The ranks OF social
ism are recruited by whole gangs of
deserters from American institu-
'tions; men who haveyeducation and
wealth and position, men who b.
lieve themselves intelligent and
high pricipled,e and who arc ready
nevertheless to betray their country
at any moment rather than to dis
charge a plain duty which they find
irksome. r: KIN. =. y. :, ss9n.
The password of these men you
may hear in almost any company
that gets together to discuss politi-
cal and social conditions. You will
find some man you like and respect,
some man who pays his bills and
loves his family and treats his en-
ployes we'll, discussing the question
of public service corporations. 1t
will be admitted as every one must
admit, that the evils in this con-
nection are many and grievious; 80
great that if they cannot be COR
rected the stability OF the body
politio will be endangered. 1t will
be pointed out, in the discussion,
that remedies proposed are mostly
manufactured with view4to politi-
cal capital; and that they are either
deliberately intended to be non
effective or else that they are d.
rected by q feeling 20 violently un-
reasonable as to nulify them
should an attempt ever be made to
put them into effect. Confronted
with these alternatives, our re-
spected citizen will declare, three
times out of four. as avonclusion
to hopeless Discussion and q way
out of the middle, We'll, then
would favor turning over the
whole thing to the state"
There. are two curious things
about this. One is that he argues
this way about public affairs but
not about private. IT his wife
told him that her household
allowance was. exhausted, he
would not tell her that he was 60
ing to put all househld affairs in
the hands of the city controller; or
if his bookkeeper showed him
hat there was leak in the bust
ness he would not ask the common
council to assume control. The
other is that he cannot see that he
himself is the criminal. It is be.
;ause he and men like him will not

non only are put in Office that

The railroad record of casualties
for last year shows 1898 killed and

record of slaughter, that far sur
passes the loss in the Crimean war,
the battle of Sedan and may other
great conflicts, where the loss of life
was heavy, including. Waterloo,
Gettysburg and Shiloh. This loss
by railway accidents is largely pre-
ventable. England's experience
proves this, and the United States
