to be made the basis of circulation.
Thus will the value of the bonds
concerned be increased by legisla-
tion, benefitting a certain class OF
men-which is the main considera-
tion in latter day financial legisla-
tion. Furthermore. it will re-es-
tablish the ''endless chain" worked
so beautifully under the Cleveland
administration to force the govern
ment to issue bonds to replenish the
gold reserve. Government bonds
are a very handy thing to have
around and the supply must be in
creased some way if the financiers
are to be kept from pouting and
crying. Of course it would not do
for the government to issue emer-
gency currency; that would be ''pa-
ternalism' affecting all the people,
whereas everybody knows that the
government is only step-father to
the mass of the people, the Inter
ests' being it's own children whose
wants must be supplied as soon as
made known. Only fifteen Of the
republican members had the moral
courage to vote against this iniquit-
Gus measure. The democratic
members voted solidly against it.
When the bill reached the senate
Aldrich struck out all but the enact
ing clause and substituted his late
bill for the House bill and passed
it-Aldrich being, as is we'll known,
a clear majority in the senate. II
is not known as yet which bill is
the worst, but as soon as that is de.
termined it will probably be report.
ed by the conference committee:
and passed. There is just one ray
Of hope-that an agreement cannot
be reached on that point and sc
both the bills may be put to sleep.

WEDNESDAY, MAY 20. 1908.
GIVE THE PEOPLE THE FACTS.

be a question of considerable i'm
portance in this city. Recognizing
that fact, the Republican Gazette is
willing to accept articles Of reason
able length bearing on this subject,
and invites parties interested to
put their views on paper for publ
cation. The question is an import
ant one; it should be conceded that
all citizens, without regard to their
specific opinions, are honest in
wishing to do the best thing for
the city's welfare; and to that end
a full and frank discussion in the
newspapers may be helpful. The
tax payers will be called upon to
vote some day; and they should be
able to do so intelligently. Come
forward with your arguments.
Republican Gazette.
We are very glad that the Ga
zette has changed it's views some
what on the telephone question.
A few weeks ago it declared that it
was perfectly willing to accept as
final the report Of a committee
which had been appointed by the
Commercial Club. This committee
reported point blank against mu-
nicipal ownership, against COMPETE
ton, against taxing tha local COM
pany anything for a franchise and
as opposed to any litigation against
the company. Since. the report was
published the Tribune has proven
by figures received directly from
other cities that the committees
report was entirely erroneous on
most OF the points presented. We
published this three weeks ago, but
as yet no one has seen fit to attempt
to defend the figures presented by
the committee or to show that those
presented by the Tribune are
wrong. We assume that the CON-
mittee by it's silence admits that
they have been deceived in the mat
ter of figures. In any event, the
adoption Of the report by the Com
mercial Club settled nothing.
Now, why does not the Gazette, if
it believes the matter ought to be
discussed, lead off with an editorial
giving its opinion in the matter?
If it believes the committee was
right in it's report, let it say SO.
If it believes municipal ownership
wrong, let it say so and give its
reasons. We believe municipal
ownership is right and have been
giving Our reasons every week.
Here is mighty good chance for a
little controversy that will be of
interest and will be instructive to
the citizens of the city. If the edi-
tor Of the Gazette does not feel
competent to write such articles,
let him secure somebody to write
them for him. We are ready to
prove every assertion made in our
paper during the last three weeks,
with facts and figures; but we're
just about despairing about being
able to arouse any open opposition
that would give US a chance to con-
tinue the discussion. We are ex-
ceedingly pleased to have Brother
Crosby propose a little publicity.
We are strong believers in publicity
campaigns. Bosses, crooks and
interests believe in the "gum
Shoe campaign, where they can
whisper one thing to one person
and something else to another per-
son. Turn on the light of publ
city! /! can harm no legitimate
interest. Give us a whir], Brother
Crosby.

State Convention.

The democratic state convention
held in St. Paul last Thursday was
the largest and most enthusiastic
gathering Of its kind ever held in
Minnesota. Every county in TIE
state was represented, and in most
instances with full delegations.
The reason for this was not hard to
find. 1t was the overwhelming
sentiment in favor Of Gov. John A.
johnson that brought all these peo-
pie to the capital city to help Sc
cure for him an undivided and
enthusiastic delegation from his ma
tive state. And he got it by d ire
mendous majority.
A great effort has been made by
the dai}ies Of the cities to create
an impression that there was a
great deal of bitterness between the
Bryan and Johnson factions. Such
was not the case, however. While
a few hot headed fellows of the
Manahan tribe have done their best
to stir up bad blood, they did not
succeed in doing more than earn
decided contempt for themselves by
their unfair tactics. Beyond the
feeling against two or three of
those fellows, there was no bit
terness in the struggle. 1t could
not be, in view of the fact that an
overwhelming majority of the dele
gates had been enthusiastic follow
ers of Bryan in two campaigns, and
have not changed their opinions as
to his personality and his princi-
Piles. But they had also learned to
repose implicit confidence in the
ability and integrity of johnson,
and they believed that his chances
for election, if nominated, were
better than those of Bryan. It was
thus purely question of available
ity, but with the friendly feeling
entertained for Bryan by the John
son men there could be no bitter
ness coming from their side. The
Bryanites did not fight against the
endorsement Of Johnson; they
fought only for an endorsement of
Ii yam as second choice. This they
would unquestionably have got,
had it not been generally felt that
such an action would have weak
ened Johnson's chances. The
speeches on both sides were very
temperate in tone. In fact, the
writer has never attended any con-
vention before where two contend
ing factions treated each other so
considerably in their speeches as
was done at this convention. The
result will be that whether Johnson
or Bryan receives the nomination,
the Minnesota democracy will be
practically a unit for the nominee.
/ AS an example of the fairness of
the Johnson faction it may be men
toned that in the twelfth judicial
district Bryan man was put on
the committee on resolutions, altho
there were only eleven Bryan men
out Of eighty-nine in that district
and he was elected without oppoSi-
tion. The same thing was done in
the district in which Mr.. Knox
lived. He was the most active Bry-
an man in the convention, yet he
was put on that committee and thus
given an opportunity to present a
