Riley's rafting crew and were returning
home when the accident happened. The
flies we've unusually troublesome that
When about quarter of mile from
home they became unmanageable and
ran away. AS the team started the
tongus dropped from the neckyoke,

the same time 'upsetting it. The boy
was standing up in the wagon driving
and was thown up in the air and fell
head foremost behind the horses. His
feet became entangled in the harness
and he was dragged from there to the
barn, where they were caught by Rev.
Eidnes as they we're starting for further

left on the road where 1t was overturned.
The boy was dead when he was picked
up. 1t is supposed that be was killed
instantly when thrown out, for it was
found that his neck was broken. An
ugly wound was found on the back of
the head, probably caused by being
kicked by one of the horses, his back
was badly bruised and lacerated, which
with severe cuts on the face and
sides showed the terrible pounding the
boys body had received as it was drag =
ged along the road.
The father jumped from the wagon and
escaped injury. The grief of the par
ents was pit1able. The father was
almost crazed and it was some time be-
fore It could be ascertained that he was
not hurt. Mrs. Toftey, who is not very
strong, was completely FRUSTRATED by
the shock, her condition being so serious
that DR.. Hicks was summoned from
Grand Marais to attend her.

TIME FOR REFORM.

The cost of living is still advancing with rapid strides and those who nave fixed incomes are the chief sufferers. It would seem that anyone not indi- yidually benefited by tariff protec- ton must arrive at the conclusion that high trust prices have been plundering them for the benefit of in. fant industries long enough and be willing to welcome competition that can be obtained by tariff reduction. The trusts are not to blame for get, ting as much profit as conditions and the law will allow but the Republican party that has been standing pat for so many years and has received com pensation for so doing by being sup piled with campaign funds from those tariff protected monopolists, should certainly be held to account.

PAY UP AND LOOK PLEASANT.

The New York papers have been discussing the disagreement between State Chairman Corners and Mir. VII liam R. Hearst. The suggestions as to the cause of the falling out vary from positive statement that Connors in order to secure the election of MT. Hearst as governor spent s6S, S,O0O over and above the large amount Hearst contributed and cannot now collect from the candidate who au- thorized the outlay, to the innuendo that, being no longer in fear of Hearst starting a newspaper in Buffalo and interfering with his field, Corners has thought best to make declara- ton of independence and be free to meet the new and rapidly developing politics ahead of him.

LIGHT ON THE DARK HoRse.v

The Watterson dark horse" will have no chance for the Democratic nomination if his good points are not exhibited. It has always been the rule in the Democratic party that all who are candidates or who their friends desire to be nominated, shall have fair field and no favors asked or expected. That this good old Dem ocratic plan may not be rescinded, NIT. Watterson should name his dark horse and give his pedigree and past performances. But as he does not seem to be willing to do this, we may be permitted to guess that Judge Har- mon of Ohio is the man that Marse Henry has in mind and for the life of us we cannot think why there should be any mystery in proposing him as one who Is worthy of consideration. He certainly measures up to the Dem ocratic requirements of ability and honesty and supported by MT. Bryan in 1896 and 1900 and has never had entangiing alliances with the trusts or the money power. Whether he can defeat Mir. Bryan for the nomination is another question; or whether he would unite the factions in the party better than MT. Bryan can is the ques- ton that must be considered and de cided before he or anyone else will be nominated.

reduce the tariff schedules, however, high and unreasonable, is out of the question.
 The temporary arrangement with Germany will only exist until the next Congress has had an opportunity to pass on a reciprocity arrangement with that country, to enact a general tariff revision law that will admit im- ports from Germany on a basis that will satisfy that country and thus per nit our exports to enter there at the minimum rates.
 If the standpat faction prevails at the next Republican convention and that can hardly be doubted as nearly all the leaders are for letting well enough alone" the present incipient tariff war will reach an acute stage and the real fight for commercial su- premacy will be a very serious ques- tion.
 To leave the tariff to be settled by ''the friends of protection" will mean no settlement at all, but merely a continuation of the Republican policy heretofore and now prevailing of pro tecting the trusts and making the balance of us pay the tax that trust high prices entail. The only relief that can come to those who feel that the present high cost of living is be yond their ability to pay or so trenches on their income as to con- pei the relinquishment of even the most simple and inexpensive pleas ures, is through voting for Democratic candidates who favor tariff reform, not only because the Democratic plat form will declare for tariff reform, but also through the inherited tradi- tions of the Democratic party on the tariff issue from the beginning of the government.

PlckETlNo AND 1ovcoTTINe.

Word comes from Bisbee that sev- eral individuals who took 1t upon them selves to picket abetu the shafts and works of the mines of that camp and for So doing have been arrested and will be tried before the courts. It ap- pears that the purpose of these pick cts was to interfere with the miners and other worlmen. trying to induce them not to work. and even going so far as to utter some gentle threats. If this be true these pickets will no doubt have to suffer the penalty of their acts, for such interference in the lawful affairs of others is. as 1t should be, punishable.
 This business of pieketlng and boy cotting is as un-American as it is mean and despicable. Both of these brutal means of intimidating the free dom are brutal and of foreign biith and should be discountenanced as well as punished to the full limit of the law Either picketing or boycott ting any mans business or corpora ton Is a violation of law, especially of the common law, which applies and obtains in Arizona, where the statute does not provide a punishment or remedy against wrong-doing.
 Picketing and boycotting is the re- sort of the cowardly, the irresponsi- ble. and any creature who descends so low as to engage in such business should be branded as a miscreant and summed by ali honorable men and women
 Arizona is today the greatest geo graphical division fin the United States and Americans are Americans. They will not tolerate the gag prac- tices of the foreign outcasts who are trying to ruin American industries and smother American principles of freedom in its broadest terms. Let the picketing and the boycotting be banished from the territory and if they violate the law let them get the full measure of punishment which can rightfully be administered by our courts. -Thcson Star.

THE OKLAHOMA CONSPIRACY.

The Republican conspiracy to pre- vent the people of Oklahoma from securing statemood because the Dem ocrats will carry the state, now in cludes all the leaders and President Roosevelt is being urged to pull the political chestnuts out of the fire by declaring that constitution, the peo- pie are to vote on does not provide for Republican form of government Democrats and honest Republicans
 will watch this conspiracy with solic- itude for the result of it will be more far-reaching than the loss of Oklaho- mas seven electoral votes. If the Republicans prevent admission unfair ness of partisanship will help the Democrats in every doubtful state.

TARIFF WAR.

While our standpatter Republican friends are enjoying the usufruct of their alliance with the tariff protect ed trusts, the tariff war with other countries is certainly and gradually undermining our foreign commerce. The state Department officials point out that our relations with France on the tariff question are in very unsat- isfactory condition and nothing can be done to mend them until Congress acts Meantime, the officials say, there is good reason for believing that France has decided steadily to increase the duties upon American imports to such an extent that in many instances they are likely tc be prohibitive. As the Republican ma jority in the House of Representatives Is opposed to tariff reform and the Senate has refused to ratify the treaties for reciprocity with other nations. the prospect of the coming congress enacting any law that win

EQUAL RIGHTS TO ALL.

It must be taken Tor granted that every Democrat would like to see an other President elected who believes in the good old Jeffersonian doctrine of Equal Rights to all and special privileges to none" No one but Democrats rest their political faith on that comprehensive declaration. To Republicans of today it must be incomprehensible that any political party should demand equal rights to all," for that would abolish the tariff schedules that foster and protect the trusts; it would compel the wealthy to pay taxes according to their in- comes and property; it would abolish sumptuary legislation and implies freedom from restraint in every way that would not interfere with the wei fare of others. Special privileges to none" would abolish nearly all the legislation that the Republican party has enacted; that has fostered trusts and corporations; that has favored national banks; that has benefited capital at the expense of labor; that taxes without representation; that favors subsidies; that has created sec tional strife and usurped executive powers unknown to the Constitution.
 To Democrats all such granting of unusual rights and special privileges is crime against the people. It has been accomplished by corrupting cleo tions with the campaign funds con- tributed by those who have benefited by such special privileges.
 To overthrow such corrupt system of favoritism Is incentive enough to arouse every honest voter and will certainly unite Democrats to that end Trust high prices and the increasing cost of living should lead many Re publicans to join with the Democrats in reforming the tariff and other abuses that but few any longer deny as existing.
 The Southern states have specially suffered from this Republican system of fostering special interests, which no doubt leads to the demand for a candidate from the South for the Democratic nomination for President. Nearly every Southern state is urging its favorite son and as the solid South Is the citadel of Democracy, 1t cannot be gainsasd these prospective candi- dates are entitled to the earnest con- sideration Of Democrats everywhere and if it can be shown that Senator Daniel or Judge Culberson or any other candidate that has been sug- gested can unite the Democratic fac tons he will undoubtedly receive due deliberation from the delegates to the next national convention. The generous rivalry between these can didates from the Southern states is a healthy sign that sectionalism has in great measure been obliterated and that the prospect that the banner in- scribed with "equal rights to all and special privileges to none" will lead to victory.

Those who expect the Republicans

Those who expect the Republicans really intend to reform the tariff should take heed of the declaration of Speaker Cannon that the coming Congress was elected on the platform of "let we'll enough alone" As Uncle Joe will probably be reelected Speak CT and thus again boss the peoples representatives. the standpatters will have the inside track and reform will be postponed until-wel, when the Democrats control Congress.

Senator Tillman would like to see a Southern man nominated by the Dem ocrats for president. but thinks he will have to content himself with @Culberson of Texas, Hoke Smith of Georgia or Daniel of Virginia" for t.s second place on the ticket All of these able and honest Democrats are quite fit to aspire to the presidency. The nominee for vice president should always measure up to the standard fixed for president. for in the future as in the past, the vice president may be called upon to serve as president.

The first test of the power of the Interstate Commerce Commission to control railroad rates under the new law has been decided in favor of the commission by the United States Su- preme Court. The case involved an advance in rates on lumber from the South to Ohio river points, and the commission issued orders forbidding the enforcement of the advanced rates which the court has now decid- ed were unreasonable.

RroiIed Prairie Doc.

"Prairle dog, briled, is darn good eat in'," said the zoo keeper, but you couldn't get a plainsman to admit it.
 "The plainsmen claims that owls and rattlesnalles and prairie dogs frater- nize together, share holes and eat one another's dead corpses at the end. They claim that to eat prairie dog is the same thing as to eat rattlesnake or owl.
 Of course it's only Q superstition, but 1t holds good on the plains, and prairie dog is never eaten there. I eat it, though, every chance get. It has a fine taste. It tastes, by gum, like young chicken"-New Orleans Times-Demo- crat.
