Attempt to Throw Scare.

That resourceful gentleman, James T..
McCleary, is working both ends of his
campaign machinery with the people be-
twixt and between. One of his latest
devices is an attempt to throw the
scare into the republicans of this dis
trict by having his press bureau at
democratic candidate for congress will
win if McCleary is turned down. This
very cleverly worded interview with a
member of the democratic commit
tee was published under a Washington
date:
''Now, take the second district. If
Representative McCleary is turned down
for the nomination, our candidate GER
tainly will beat the republican nominee.
We also believe we have fighting
chance in the Minneapolis district, who
ever is nominated by the republicans"
The republicans need have no fear of
tuc lcSuIC az VIC PoIio III 1>oNSiioSi -
Gilbert Guttersen is successful at the
primaries in September.
Mr.. McCleary is not the only pebble
on the political beach. There are others
who are capable of achieving a republi-
can victory in the second congressional
district, and Mr.. Guttersen will do that
same thing if he receives the nomina-
tion, and there is every indication that
he will. Mr.. McCleary has no license
to pat himself on the back and claim
that he is the only republican who can
be elected to the lower house from this
district. Republican candidates of the
past were given the election and repub-
lican candidates of the future will be
likewise rewarded. Mr.. McCleary's at
tempt to "throw the scare" will fall
of its own weight.

Mr.. McCleary's Speech.

The Washington correspondent of The
st. Paul Dispatch writes as follows:
Congressman j. T. McCleary's stand
pat tariff speech has not yet appeared
in print. The congressional record has
also closed down for the summer sea-
son and clerks in charge of the makeup
said today: owe have not yet receiv-
ed proof sheets of Mr.. McCleary's
speech. This means that the speech,
like others of similar sort will appear in
the appendix of the record.
Congressman McCleary is playing a
transparent game of fast and loose with
his district and the people of Minneso-
ia. He had prepared radical high pro-
tective tariff speech insisting on retain
ing the present Dingley schedule, and
before he could even get the floor in
the house of representatives to be heard
for the purpose of extending his re-.
marks, the Minnesota state republican
convention had declared for a revision
of some schedules in the Dingley act.
| Hence Mr.. Hyde McCleary is keeping
rather quiet on the tariff at home, while
DIR. Jeykl McCleary's great tariff speech
is exploited in the east, where the trust
combinations are yet free from prosecu-
ton at the hands of this administra-
tion. simply for want of time.
Gust how long the people of the Sec
and district will allow Mr.. McCleary to
bamboozle them is another question of
time. 1t is understood that McCleary's
speech was made for campaign purposes
to be used in certain districts where
the highly protected interests must
make hard fight. But it is not likely
that the speech will be generally cir
culated except as the American protec-
tive tariff league and its organ the Am
erican Economist circulates it. These
people have printed Mr.. McCleary's for
mer speeches without union label, put
|
circulated them. They have also adver-
tised them for sale. Every other mem
Der of the Minnesota delegation made
speeches during the last session, but not
one of them went over for cold storage
in the appendix"
'It is reported that if the Iowa idea of
lowering the tariff on trust made ar
ticles prevails at the forthcoming con-
vention in the Hawkeye state, and if
Governor Cummins is nominated, Nc
Cleary's speech will be circulated.
There has been no favorable comment
upon it to speak of, not half so much
as there has been about his not being
ready to put it before the voters of his
district"

Skiddo Mr.. B yam.

The st. Louis Globe Democrat pays
its compliments to Mr.. Bryan in langu-
age as sarcastic as it is classic Every
new talk by William j. Bryan furnishes
a new and excellent reason for his fell
low-countrymen to keep him in private
life. In studied written statement
just given out by him in London he
takes pains to show that he is more
radical in 1906 than he was in 1896;
that he has nothing to withdraw on
economical questions which have been
under discussion" and that the only
apparent change is the silver, question,
and that has not been a change in the
advocacy of bimetallism. but in the con-
ditions." ct believe" he saws.
shat the restoration of silver would
bring greater prosperity" This is his
solemnly expressed opinion in his Lon
don manifesto, after his trip round the
world, and after the swift rise in wages
and values of all sorts of property which
came in his country as result of his
defeat. He is apparently as incapable
as an Igorrote of distinguishing be-
tween real and bogus money-between

What Eddy Says.

Ex-Congressman Eddy says things:
at would be hilariously funny if the
tremendous interests at stake did not
make it sorrowfully pitiful the holy
show that the stand pat element of the
republican party are making of them
selves.
"Wrapping themselves in the ample
cloak of their unlimited self-complacen-
cy, they lordly proclaim that no one is
demanding a revision of the tariff ex-
cept democrats and disgrunted repub-
leans and that the Overwhelming ma
jority of the republican party are per-
fectly satisfied with the tariff laws as
they now exist they have, called out
their heaviest oratorical ability to de-
fend a proposition that everybody is in
favor Of
'Dalzell has pettifogged, Grosevnor
has Numbered, Lands has exhausted the
powers of his sercasm, Cushman has
played the clown, Boutelle has used up
the rhetorim of ridicule, McCleary has
frantically grabbed President Roosevelt's
coat tails and endeavored to spread
them over his position in order to hide
its weakness from the discerning gaze
of his constituents, and Leslie M. Shaw,
cabinet officer and grand high priest of
stand pattism, has rushed head long
from Washington and thrown himself in
the breach to defeat the denomination
of Governor Cummins who is a mild
tariff revisionist."
Editor Eddy then refers to the col
local cheek of the senator's and represen-
tatiyes who return to their homes sing
ing the story of the glory of their ac-
compishments in the way of trust, rate,
Panama canal and other legislation, and
boasting Of ''the prevention of tariff
legislation by those who wuld ruin
you financially" Mr.. Eddy scores these
false servants of the people, enumerates
many of their tariff protected trust ar
: ticles, and adds:
eff any man favors protective tar
iff on the class of commodities that we
have mentioned above, his brain is SO
thoroughly encrusted with the hard pan
of hopeless idiocy that one could not
hope to get an up-to-date idea into his
head even if he encased it in a bullet
and fired it at him straight between
the eyes out of a modern rifle"

MRS. WEYCKER BURNED.
Gasoline Stove Blazes Up With
Serious Results.
From Thursdays Daily.

From thursdays Daily.
Mrs. Anna NJ. Weycker, who resides
at 2l9 Elm street, was badly burned this
morning and her residence somewhat
damaged by the explosion of gasoline
stove. She was busy washing at about
eight o'clock when the gasoline ran over
or ignited in some other way and blazed
out suddenly. Mrs. Weycker's hands
and face were scorched and blistered by
the flames and her hair and eyebrows
singed. Fortunately her eyes were not
injured, and help was promptly rendered,
so that the pain was alleviated.
The woodwork in the Kitchen took
fire, and was blazing up in threaten
ing manner when several employees of
the Citizens Telephone company, who
were working near by were attracted
by the smoke and cries and ran in. With
the contents OF two barrels of rain wat
er standing near, the figre was gotten
out. An alarm was sent in from box u,
and the fire department responded, and
a line of hose was laid, but it was not
found necessary to turn on water. The
fire got into the dining room a little
and burned a curtain and scorched the
woodwork. The damage will probably
amount to 500 or more.

Event Will Begin at Brett's on
Friday Morning.
ELEGANT STOCK ON MARKET.
Notable Affair in Local Trade Circles
Take Advantage Of This Chance
to Buy.

Brett's big semi annual remnant sale
will begin Friday morning at nine
o'clock and will last just that one day.
This store has made it a practice to
have these great clearing out sales every
summer and winter, and so successful
have they been that they will doubtless
be continued year after year. For this
one day the bargain hunters are in Glow
er, for all goods that come under this
sale are marked down to just fifty per
cent of the usual price. This means that
a person investing dollar will get just
twice the goods for it that can be pur
chased on any other day of the year.
The sale will include remnants in
every line in the store, and broken and
discontinued lines of ready to wear
goods. The sale will include such ar
ticles as cloaks, cults, wash dresses,
wash suits, skirts, waists, muffin, UNI
derwear, knit underwear, hosiery, collars
and neckware, belts and bags, gloves and
corsets, table linen, silks and dress
goods, domestic and wash goods. All
of the remaining spring and summer
coats and suits will be sold Friday at
half price.
All goods included in this sale will
be placed on tables in the center Of each
aisle. The firm uses this method of sell
ing goods at such remarkably low prices
for the sole purpose of clearing up ev-
erything remaining from the big spring
and summer purchases. The ladies can
get their expectations up as high as pos
sible, for they will not be disappointed.
Special salespeople, cashiers and bun
die wrappers have been engaged by the
firm for Friday, and it has arranged to
have all purchases delivered that day.
This sale will be notable event in To-
cal trade circles, because the people have
learned that they can rely upon the
firms advertisements, They also re-
call the big remnant sale last January,
and the many bargains then offered,
and will doubtless turn out in even larg
er numbers than on that occasion to
take advantage of this great opportu
nifty.

1t is well for his countrymen that Mr..
Bryan is making these confessions in
advance of his nomination. IF, in the
face OF his openly avowed Bourbonism,
the democratic party dominates Mr..
Bryan in 1908, it will deserve the over
whelming disaster which will be sure to
be dealt to it at the polls by the arous-
ed and indignant American people.

TRACY MAN DEAD.
Fritz johnson Was Victim of the
Dreaded Tetanus.

From Thursdays Daily.
Fritz Johnson of Tracy, Mimi, died at
the Swedish hospital in st. Paul Tues
day night of tetanus, victim of a
Fourth of July accident.
Johnson, who was twenty six years of
age, was injured by the premature dis
charge of a shotgun, the contents of the
weapon striking him in the right hand,
and tearing the member horribly. For
week or more the injured man was
under the care of the local physicians
at Tracy and the outlook for his recov-
cry seemed excellent. Several days ago,
however, symptoms of tetanus suddenly
appeared, and the patient rapidly be-
came worse
Last Sunday Johnson was brought to
Minneapolis and taken to the city hos
pital where everything that medical
science could suggest was done to save
his life, but without avail Within
twenty four hours of his arrival he lap
sed into Inconsistencies and remained
in that condition until the time of his
death early Tuesday night. The body
was taken back to Tracy last night for
