belief that in the average run it
is not often that that portion of
the populace which devotes itself
to getting hold of money as dis
tinguished from that portion
which devotes itself to getting
rid of the same, succeeds in tele-
scoping his bankroll with the glad
abandon that the circus lady in

the great truth that the stranger

Three Operations Performed.

St Paul, September H.-The late Gov. John A Johnson had been operated on twice before by pr Mayo. the first for the removal of ulcers from the stom- aeh and afterward for an abscess of the bowels. Both operations were very acute, prolonged cases, and the governor was in a very serious condition each time. There had been Instructions of the bowels in each instance and at the second operation the appendix was re- moved. After the second operation Gov ernor Johnson enjoyed fairly good health but had spells of indigestion which later developed into attacks of obstruction of the bowels. These attacks came on most ly during the last two years and were increasing frequently.
 About two months ago Governor John- son suffered a severe attack at his home in St Paul. It was seen then that an operation was inevitable, but he had set his mind upon doing certain things planned visiting the Seattle fair for one. Upon his return here he had made up his mind that he would have the oper- ation after the Taft reception on Mon day. The governor, however, was sud- denly taken with severe pains and as soon as he was able to travel, went to Rochester.

 When in 1904 the republican party of the state was rent by quarrels among the leaders, Johnson was elected governor over R. C. Dunn, republican. Two years later he was reelected overwhelmingly. Then it was proposed to nominate him for a third time The governor decided not to be a candidate, and did not even attend the democratic state convention. but he was unanimously renominated and again reelected.
 Johnson's remarkable political record had become known throughout the coun- try. and at the last national democratic convention at Denver many of the lead CTS strongly advocated his nomination for President of the United States. Bryan

 Tn common with good citizens every where I deplore the death of Governor Johnson and as a democrat I especially feel the loss because his influence and popularity had done much and had he been spared would have done more to- ward strengthening the democratic party in his section of the country, where 1t sorely needs to be strengthened His early struggles and ultimate triumph are an inspiring lesson to the youth of the land and teach how poverty and obscurity must yield to ambition and good con- d11ct"

1894 because the doctrine of free raw ma- terial was embodied in the Wilson bill He has certainly not forgotten that the defeat in 1864 was due to the fact that the silver question divided our party at that time. And further, if he will examine the election returns of 1894 he will find that about the only district that we car ried were the districts in those portions of the country in which he says the peo- pie resent the doctrine Of free raw ma terlal, while we lost the districts in those portions of the country where they have practically no raw material to protect.
 He also oyerlooks the fact that in 1892 we elected a democratic President and secured a large democratic majority in Congress on a platform which indorsed the doctrine of free raw material and he will remember also that we won that victory after the House of Representa- lives of the Fifty-second Congress had passed several free raw material bills for which both he and I voted.
 "As to the binding force of platforms he does not meet the proposition which I presented.
 "I affirm that an official is bound by his platform. but Senator Bailey, if I read his speech aright, does not express an opinion on this subject He attempts to create the impression that free raw material policy is intended to benefit the manufacturer.
 while in his speech he read tbe free wool plank of the platform which I pro- posed, he proceeded to make an argu- ment which ignored a vital part of the plank We ask not only for free wool, but for two other things-frst, the aboli- ton of compulsory duties; and. second, a substantial reduction in the ad valorem rate. This would not be a favor to the manufacturer, for the abolition of the compensatory duties would more than offset the benefits which we would de- rive from such free raw material and a 'substa ntiai reduction in the ad valo- rem rate would bring a still greater ad- vantage to the consumer.
 "No one but wool grower will accept his argument on this subject when 1t is understood and not all of them"
