WILL NOT HELP BRYAN.

THE Bryan campaign abroad will have to
worry along without the forensic aid of Gov
Johnson. With the assistance of the necessary
diplomacy, to put it nicely, it will be found
impossible for the governor to leave the state
and the astnte Mr. Day may be depended upon
to so phrase it as to give all the air of absolute
sincerity It may be bitter medicine in certain
quarters, but the pill will be beautifully
sugar-coated as possible" says the St. Paul
Dispatch.
Gov Johnson is no fool. Nobody ever
charged him with installing hawk for a
handsaw. None knows better the utter folly of
his leaving campaign in which he is appeal
ing for republican votes only, to go out and
stump for Bryan and antagonize the only sup
port that can make his election possible It
would be qualification worse than the accept
ance of the gubernatoria1 nomination, he de-
clared nothing on earth could induce him to do.
He cannot refuse now to stand sponsor for the
Denver shibboleth:
Nominate who can be elected"
"His committee has charge of the situation,
with power to act, so it is given out. AS
matter of fact, his committee has been told flat
footed that he will not go out for Bryan. and it
must figure out the excuse. It may be another
case of ptomaine-which is the political para
phrase of cold feet-but the real reason is that
the local campaign demands all of the govern
ors time and energy.
@ "Bryanities here and elsewhere may resent
this and may even visit the refusal upon the
governor, but why should he care for this loss
if he can pull in the republican support he is
working for"

It makes the Minnesota man. who knows OF
the peculiar conditions which lifted John a.
Johnson to the governorship in a Republican
state, very tired to read in Eastern papers OF
his election as example Of Democratic
achievement. The men who gave him his ma
jorties were Republicans, dissatisfied with the
candidates presented by their own party: They
have this year no occasion for such dissatis-
faction, either in the personality of their candi
date or in the methods by which he was nomin
ated. Instead, they are proud of him, and re-
cognize his nomination the Spontaneous tri-
butte of a convention the freest from unpopular
influences" of any ever held in Minnesota
Then, too, "the appeal of the Northland" which
gave johnson so many Scandinavian votes, is
this year just strong for jacobson. Pioneer

THE GAME OF POLITICS.

The County Chairman" writing for the St.
Paul Dispatch, makes the following observa-
tons on the political game
"a little over four weeks more and the
campaign of 1908 will be but memory, and
into that four weeks what lot of work will be
crowded, how many campaign lies will be
nailed, the regulations that will suffer, the
claims that will be made and then the finish.
You ask is the game worth the candle, are the
political wrecks that must of necessity follow
worth the price? Don't the whole thing tend
to degrade, to destroy those high ideals our
political alma mater has inculcated in all OF
us and compel all to lose faith in human nature
generally? My boy, wake up. No game is
without it's reward; in every fight the battle is
to the fittest, and for wrecks, popular opinion
is the verdict. They must of necessity follow.
Politics is old as the world, and the game OF
supremacy is played with the same kind OF
cards they did in the days of the Romans The
only difference is the methods. History tells
of political battles where clubs were used to
silence the opposing side and gunpowder has
been determining factor more than one
occasion. But main and Kill with less
brutality. We used to style the casualty list,
the dead and WOUNDED. we call tutH tHe
"down and outs" now-maybe some OF them
AS for the game being worth the candle, well,
[ don't know. The hope of victory whets the
appetite in any game and politics is no different
from any other business where the prize IS sue
cess 1t is plain poker played with hfty-two
cards, few pat hands and luck largely in the
draw. Only those who lose complain Speak
ING of ideals it is the man with the votes who
wins; at least, that has been the custom to date,
and history records but few who beat the other
fellow to it when the practical was his weapon
AS for destroying faith in future human
nature, the answer is up to you. It has been
said that politics. like war, is hell 1t is to be
admitted that it is not exactly T. n. c. A.
game, still he is pessimistic cues, indeed,
whose warped nature only sees the bad side. It
is his way of looking at it. Thank goodness
everybody does not use the same glasses

SEVERAL KINDS OF REPUBLICANS.

Politically, have happened the days
of the independent voter, and the independent
voter may be either sorehead worse or he
may be one of the "sat of the earth" politically
speaking. There was good sense and patriotism
in the "mugwumpery' of Cleveland's time, but
it has remained for these later days to reduce
independent voting to an absurdity.
We are not an apologist for the strict
partizan who votes his party ticket blindly
howsoever corrupt or inefficient those nominees
may be, but parties will always exist so long as
men differ in opinions, and generally speaking
every voter should choose his party, and man
fully and inteligently vote and work for it's
success.
This does not mean that man should be
bound to vote his party ticket absolutely
straight, but it does mean that he should in
form himself and have opinion of the issues
that divide the parties and vote accordingly.
A man may claim to be a "good Republican,
and still vote for other than his party nominees
in county affars-in fact many Republicans do
that, considering that the conduct of CO unity
affairs is not party matter A man may be
good Repu bican and vote for other than his
party nominee for governor, provided he is
conscientiously Of the belief that his party
nominee is undesirable man to elect to so
high station, but independence in voting be-
comes absurdity when man claims to be
Repub lcan, and will vote for Bryan for presi-
dent.
III the field of national politics, there is no
opportunity for corrupt man to obtain a no.
mination for presidency of the United States,
and the national contest is one of party prin-
ciples. Morally, Mr.. Bryan is no cleaner or
better than Mr.. Taft, nor does Mr.. Taft in
these virtues excel Mr.. Bryan Both are high.
minded, patriotic citizens who differ in their
policies as their parties differ Those differ
ences are well defined government guaranty
of bank deposits, currency, tariff etc.-ques-
tions which good men differ. LIE man be
lieves in the principles of the Republican party
he should vote for Mr.. Taft; if he believes in
Democratic principles, he should vote for Mr..
Bryan, but it is an absurdity for d man to vote
for the Democratic nominee who is pledged to
carry out the Democratic doctrine, and still
claim to be Good Republican"

Trouble in the Balkans" has come to be
considered a Joke, but now there is trouble in
the Balkans which has thrown all Europe into
turmoil Bulgaria has declared itself indie
declared himself car of the ulgarians
While this is not so radical change as it would
appear account of the virtual independence
of Bulgaria heretofore. yet so delicate are the
adjustments of European politics that this
matter and the matter of Austria extending
it's sovereignty over couple of the minor
Balkan states will probably call for revision
of the treaty of Berlin, by which affairs in the
near East were settled some thirty years ago.

Milwaukee PROTESTS.
Wants Same Rates on Grain as Chi
cago Market.

Washington, June 2,.-Charging
five railroads with discrimination in
favor of Chicago as against Milwaukee
In the grain trade the chamber of com.
merce of Milwaukee has filed with the
Interstate commerce commission two
complaints asking the government to
require the same through rates on all
kinds of grain from stations on the
defendant roads in Iowa, Minnesota
and South Dakota to Milwaukee as to
the Chicago markets.
One complaint charges that the Chi
cago, Rock Island and Pacific, in con-
nection with the Chicago, Milwaukee
and st. Paul, enforces the same as the
Chicago through rates on wheat and
barley from the three states named to
Milwaukee, but refuses to apply these
to corn, oats and rye, thus giving un-
due prafaranca to the Illinois market.
The other complaint Is against the
Illinois Central, the Chicago, Milwau-
kee and st. Paul and the Chicago and
Northwestern. It says these roads
had through rates on all grain from
the three states named to Milwaukee.
Identical with the tariff to Chicago,
but that on Aug. 1 last tho defendant
roads arbitrarily cancelled the then
existing Milwaukee through rates and
advanced the rate to Milwaukee,
which, the complaint alleges, is unjust
and prohibitory.

MERELY MARKING TIME
State Departments Taking No Action
In XenazuaIan Question.

In Venezuelan Question.
Washington, June 29.--The state Dc,
partment is "marking time" III the
Venezuelan question. Events that
have occurred have produced a sitpa-
ton that promises little change for
some time, and this government is
merely awaiting the course Of
events" The guhboat Marietta will
leave Curacao for Guantanamo with
Jacob Sleeper, secretary OF the Amer
lean embassy at Caracas, and Lieu
tenant Francis A. Ruggles, military
attache, as passengers. Senior Ve1oz-
Goitoca, the Venezuelan charge at
Washington, remains in this city, but
soon will take up his residence in the
suburbs, where he will continue to be
in close touch with the state depart
ment, if necessary. Nothing has been
learned at the Venezuelan legation
concerning the events in Caracas, 90
that no new light could be shed upon
the diplomatic tangle involving the
two countries.
Some interest was attached to the
fact that in, ordering the Marietta
from Curacao to Guantanamo no in
structions were given for the return
of the vessel to, Venezuelan waters.
The reason given for this course was
that there was no further use Of the
gunboat to ply between Puerto Cabel-
10 and Willemstad.

ADVANCE IN RATES
Eastern Roads Announce an In
crease in Certain Glasses.
sEABoARD NOT AFFECTED

New Tariff Alleged to Discriminate
Against the Middle West and Chi
caso Shippers Propose to Protest
Against 1t.
Chicago, June 2I-Eastern rail-
roads have announced the first Of
their proposed increases in rates, eff
fective Aug. /. The announcement is
that the rates in what are known as
classes B, G and D. which include
some Of the heavier tonnage commodi-
ties, will be advanced from 2 to
cents per hundred pounds from all
Ohio and Mississippi river crossings
to the Southeastern territory and the
interior Mississippi river valley.
No notice of corresponding in
creases from the seaboard to the
Southeast has been given. By this
omission, therefore, the discrimina-
ton against Chicago and the Middle
West and in favor of the seaboard to
the markets OF the Southeast has been
increased. For this reason the Chi
cage Association of Commerce has
taken the matter up and will protest
against the announced advances in
| the rates. In this same connection it
is stated, although unof1cially, that
the Eastern roads, those north of the
Ohio river, have decided to make ad-
vances in the first three classes Of
rates only, permitting the other three
classes to remain at the present fg-
ures.
The increases into the Southeast
came as surprise to the shippers, as
it was officially announced that the
railroads had abandoned their purpose
of making increases effective Aug. 1
and would not put any advances into
effect before Nov. 1, if at ALL

"BOOSTING" IS USUALLY UNAPPREclATED

The subjoined article, taken from
the International Falls Echo, strikes
the writer as being especially appli,
able to the Pioneer and the news
staff thereof and we reproduce it for
the consideration of our readers:
1t is little use for the local editor
to waste his lungs and sprain his
spine in trying to boom town when
the citizens all stand around with
their hands in their pockets and in.
differently wait for something to turn
up. If the capitalists or business
men do not put their shoulders tc
the wheel and do little boosting il
is useless for the editor to try and
boom things.
He can write BOOM articles till
he gets bald headed, but if the citi
zens themselves do not take hold
and push, the town will forever stick
in the mud. Of what use is it tol
the local paper to suggest improve
ments and new enterprises if the
suggestions are never acted upon;
One man cannot boom a town. II
requires the concerted action of the
citizens. When one man shoulders
town and attempts to carry il
there are always a lot of cranky

IOWA DEMOCRATS.

Convention Enlivened by Flight Over
Liquor Plank.
Sioux City, Ia, June .-Enlivened
In its last hours by a spirited contest
over the "liquor" plank in its plat.
form, the fight on which had been
previously waged for four hours in
the committee on resolutions, the
Democratic state convention was
brought to a close with enthusiastic
cheers for w. J. Bryan and for the
Iowa state ticket. The so-called liquor
plank, which was adopted by good
majority, simply aftirms the tradi-
tional policy of the party with refer
ence to local self-government.
The proceedings also witnessed an
interesting fight between four Of the
leading Democratic jurists of the
state for the nomination for judges of
the supreme court. On a roll call
vote by counties D. w. Higbee Of
Creston and Judge G.. J. House of
Maquoketa were the winners by sub
stantial majorit1es. The other candi-
dates were Captain w. II. Jacques of
