CAMPAIGN ISSUES,

The issues in the coming Presiden-
tial contest will be fewer than in pre-
vious years, but they will be clearly
and sharply defined. The adjournment
OF congress has diverted popular atten-
ton to the national conventions and
the issues of the campaign. Mr.. William
Jennings Bryan, who has accurately if
not mOdestly described himself as the
leading candidate for the Democratic
nomination for president, has been
devoting himself for the greater part of
the time since 1904 to talking about
issues, and recently made another state
ment for the benefit of those whom it
may concern.
The Pittsburg Gazette Times saws:
1.-The Commoner surprises no one when
he says that the Democrats will present
criticism of Republican management.
That is to be expected and, indeed, that
is what they have been doing since 1896.
their criticism just previous to that
time including the administration of
their own president. In the remainder
of the outline, devoted to the things
that will beidemanded, there are only a
few items that differ much from the
Republican program. One item on
which there is and will be large differ
ence is the tariff. As Mr.. Bryan states
it the Democrats will ask tariff reduc-
ton. That means revenue tariff, or
in other words free trade. The Repub-
lican program is for revision of the
tariff by the friends of protection and
the matter will be studied by a COM
mission assisted by government ex-
perts so that the work may be done
intelligently. The Democrats demand
reduction without giving the subject
more than academic consideration.
Two other items which will distin-
guish the Democratic platform, as
outlined by Bryan, are opposition to
Imperialism and demand for election
Of United States senators by popular
vote. There is no such issue as i'm
perialism except in the diseased imagi-
nations of some Democratic leaders.
AS for the popular election of United
State senators, that is already an ac-
complshed fact wherever the people
wish it. The Democrats ought to be
the last to urge it, however, in view of
the awful examples sent to the United
States senate by the people of Demo
cratic states.
Congress will be the chief point of
attack under the head of criticism of
management. Congress.
however, is to be commended for the
good work it has done. The one thing
that can be said against it is that it has
not done all that the President wished
1t to do and recommended. 1t may be
proper to raise the question of congress
sional achievement in the congressional
election, but in the election for presi
dent the record of the administration
and whether the Republican nominee
measures up to it is the one proper
issue and neither Bryan nor any other
Democratic mouther of words can OBJ.

Brewing Company Fined.

The Fairmont Brewing Co., Fair

Mayor Medley for selling beer within

Fairmont is now dry and license was

Resolutions Are Drawn by Foresters

The lake state forestry convention,
Minnesota, adopted resolutions out,
lining a plan for the preservation OF
timber and the prevention of destruC'
tive forest fires. The resolutions rep
resent the result of the two-day meet
ing of the conference, which has been
held in the state capitol and which
finished its work These resolutions
in part are as follows:
That all persons cutting and eX-
plotting timber in any part of the lake
states here represented should be
obliged TO dispose of the debris in
such manner that it shall not be a
menace to the forests; that failure to
do this should be punished by a fine
commensurate with and consequent
to the possibility of the damage.
That we advocate the patrol sys,
TEN as the only satisfactory method Of
preventing forest fires and the com.
manding factor in fighting them.
That we recommend the retention
OF the local fire warden system with
the county as the unit instead of the
town, as being essential in securing
interest and responsibility among the
people most affected.
That it is the sense of this meet
ing that the harvest timber tax should
be based on a stumpage value deter
mined by the value of the forest prod
ucts at the place where it is assessed,
less the cost of placing it there.
That the expense OF the local fire
warden service and the help called
out for the suppression of fires should
be born wholly or in part by the coun-
ty or town, but the payment should
first be made by the state to insure
promptness
That the successful prosecution
and a commensurate punishment in
case of conviction cannot often be

tense has been committed, and in or
