considered section by section, in the
committee of the whole, as is usual,
and as the rules require in case of
legislation of that character, a gag
rule was adopted cutting off all right
of amendment. Permission was given
by private arrangement between the
speaker and Mr.. Payne that Mr.. Taw-
ney and two or three other of the
speakers henchmen might propose
amendments so as to square them
selves with their constituents. Mr..
Tawney offered an amendment to the
lumber schedule. But the standpat
element was in complete control and,
of course, it was voted down. The
Democrats and a. few Independent
Republicans, Lindbergh, Volstead and
Davis of this state, and few others,
protested against the methods adopt
ed to railroad the bill through the
house without even having it read in
full, but to no purpose. Notice was
served on them from the White
House to return to the reservation"
and be good Indians or they would
have to go without the usual patron
age incident to the congressional posi-
ton.

Former Governor of Minnesota,

A. Tawney. He congratulated the
progressive people of the First district
upon the good beginning they had
made. He pointed out the importance
of the event not only to the people of
the district but of the whole state.
He complimented Mr.. Tawney on his
conceded abilities and the service he
had rendered. He said he was in en-
tire harmony with the leaders of the
Republican party, and in the light of
this fact and the Presidents public
endorsement of Mr.. Tawney he re-
garded his defeat as phenomena of
the times" His defeat could only be
defended because "the conviction had
forced itself on the masses of the
Republican voters Of the district that
Mr.. Tawney and those with whom he
trains and acts politically have ceased
to represent the people," That con-
yiction was the cause Of his defeat.

Very Little Free.
A great deal of stress has been laid
upon the supposed enlargement of the
free list, and yet the only new items
on the free list of the Payne-AIdrich
tariff are hides, few semi-finished
coal-tar products, radium, works of art
over 20 years old, miners appliances
and Brazilian nuts. The senator
omitted to mention the fact observed
by "Mr. Dooley" that the tariff on bird
seed had been reduced.
Both Of our senators criticized the
bill and refused to give it their VOTE
With such Republican testimony
against it, it is hardly necessary to
occupy your time discussing schedules.
I will only mention a few things in
confederation of Sen. Delivers re-
markable statement.
Must Eat a Ton of Sugar.
The reduction of the duty on sugar
was paraded as a great gain to the
consumer. The old rate was 81 per
100 pounds. The new rate is $1.95.
To benefit by this reduction to the ex.
tent of ST., family will have to con-
sumo whole ton of sugar.
The president stated in his Wi
mona speech that there were 261
items in the cotton schedule. Of these
% had been decreased; AZ had been
increased and 1876 let alone. The fact
is that all the decreases in the cotton
schedule were upon cotton yarns, ex-
cept one, and solely for the benefit of
the manufacturers. Through the
whole range of cotton cloths the most
startling and ineXcusable increases
were made, not increasing the Dingley
rates openly, but by changing the
classification and the method of as
sessing the duties.
In the metals schedule there were
few reductions on iron ore, pig and
scrap iron, bar and sheet iron and
steel, none of which commodities are
ever purchased by the general public
The old rates were retained on most
finished articles ready for use, such
as cutlery. Upon structural steel
ready for builders use the duty which
had been previously $40 a ton was
nearly doubled by being transferred
to another class.
A Robker Tariff.
The wool schedule, not even the
president attempted to justify. 1t is
little less than robbery. On cloth
worth not more than 90 cents a pound,
the duty averages over 140 per cent;

Former Governor John Lind dellV-
cred a notable speech at Albert Lea
Tuesday evening, October II. He re-
viewed the issues in the campaign
and his speech has easily been the
sensation of the campaign. The idol
of the Minnesota Democracy branded
Governor A. o. Eberhart, the Republl-
can nominee, as standpatter. He
showed the connection between the
Republican nominee and his chairman,
and pointed out that Progressive Dem
ocrats and Progressive Republicans
are united in this election. The Gil
max came in the declaration that
progressives Of both parties favored
the reelection of Senator Moses E..
,Clapp, who has been consistent Pro-
gressive in Congress. The charge
was made that the Junior Senator's
danger is not from Democrats but
from the stand-pat element in his own
party. Incidentally, Gov. Lind took
occasion to declare in language I'M
mistakable that he was in no sense a
candidate for the place held by Sen
ator Clapp and that he favored per-
sonally the return Of Senator Clapp
to the United States senate there to
finish the work that he had begun so
we'll in the reform of the administra-
tons unspeakable railroad rate bill
and in other progressive legislation.
Coming as it did at time when
Senator Clapps political manager was
olo,r;n, Tho Dopuhlioan ctato admin
istration with an apparently deliber-
ate and studied program of ignoring
the senator's candidacy the Lind dec
laration for Clapp has brought the
entire state of Minnesota, politically
speaking, to it's feet. Senator Clapp's
friends are jubilant, as they have a
right to be. The scheme, Matched in
corporation headquarters at st. Paul,
to encompass his defeat through the
aid of Gov. Eberhart, his campaign
manager, Senator E. E. Smith, and
their satellites, will certainly be de-
feated by Governor Lind's exposure.
Already several Democratic candi-
dates for the senate and house of rep
resentatives, following Governor Lind's
declaration, have announced their in
tention of voting for the return of
Senator Clapp if they are honored by
election.
That Governor Lind was to take a
strong and vigorous position on coun-
ty option was to be expected. In
this respect his speech was veri-
fication of the hopes of his friends.
He complimented James Gray for his
courage and fearlessness and impaled
Governor Eberhart for his failure to
inform the people where he stands on
this important question.
The Broadway Theatre, Albert Lea,
was crowded to the doors when Gov
ernor Lind opened his address, which
was designed to make so profound an
impression on the Minnesota political
situation.
Gov. Lind opened his remarks by a
reference to the retirement Of James
