CANNON'S ExTRAvAGANT ENGLISH.

Cannon is hopelessly old to be
made over. His New York talk
about hanging and shooting insur.
gents is (let US hope) mere extravag.
ance of language. But it is foolish
and does harm. It only does him
harm, but the old hickory rail is
tough and probably not sensitive.
The public used to enjoy his
gruff ways but in a family fight
horse play fails to tickle. Can
mons methods are not designed to
attract recruits to a cause. But
you can't make man over-especi-
ally when he has battered bis way
up to the sos.

But Duluth has the liveliest in.
terest in everything that will be said.
They will discuss reapportionment
and themost certain means of gaining
substantial justice. No part of the
state has suffered more from the in
justic than the Duluth district. It
is worth everything to Duluth to
have these allies in the thirty north.
ern counties devoted to the same
cause on which Duluth's efforts are
bent.
They will discuss measures for the
development of this agricultural
country. No part of this common:
wealth has a greater stake in agri.
cultural development than Duluth.
In the last three years the Com
mercial club has put forth its best
efforts, with hearty approval of the
entire community, for the settlement
of this country. The seed sown is
coming to fruit now. The Crookston
meeting offers the very best op-
portunity, one that we might seek in
vain for years, for follow.up work.
We can clinch it if Duluth is there
in force.
They will discuss the means of
making swamp lands, railroad lands
and cut.over lands available for
settlement. Do not we all know
the handicap that lies on this
country by reason of the great
tracts held out of use or left
neglected and useless? At Crookston
is the place to drive the facts home
before an audience sharing our
views and intent on the same ends
that we cherish. At Crookston,
Duluth can accomplish in three
days the work of years.-Duluth

Opposed Provision in House Resent
Criticism of Their Course.
Washington, May 26.-Advocates of
real live tariff board that shall have
authority to make Inquiries into the
cost Of production In this and foreign
countries believe that the provision
inserted in the sundry civil bill will
be broadened in scope by the senate.
While Representative James A.
Tawney, acting in behalf of the ad,
ministration, failed in his effort to
secure the adoption of the provision
specifically authorizing cost inquiries
the administration is satisfied that an
amendment will be adopted in the
senate that will carry out the original
purpose to create tariff board that
will have authority in law to carry
out the comprehensive Investigations
into the tariff contemplated by the
administration.
The house standpatters who opposed
the tariff board provision are very re-
sentful over the criticisms of their
!. course. They are bitter over the
charges of insurgency that have been
hurled at them. Representative Dal.

Washington, May 26..- There is not
one line in the statutes to give to the
people reasonable railroad rates." de,
clared Senator La Toilette in the sen.
ate. IAN that has been accomplished
he said, lis to afford means of giving
equal rates to shippers"
i The interest of the shipper was by
no means the interest of the general
public, he asserted. He declared the
people generally were as much en-.
titled to protection as the shippers.
Forty years ago the fight was begun
with that end in view, he said, and it
was as much fight against extortion
as against discrimination, but in the
former respect there had been an ut
ter failure.

Republican primaries, the fact that his
majority is not more than I,500 or 200
over Warren Garst. whom he defeated
0y 1900 votes two years ago, places
this State on record as being opposed
TO the Taft Administration and TO the
tariff bill. The insurgents have won
more power following the recent pri-
mary. .
Senator Cummins is credited with
saying tnat the insurgents have gained
considerable. He is reported to have
declared that the convention which viii
carry out the voters desire will be
three TO one against the sO-caTled
'standpatters."
Governor Carroll received most Of his
support from the Iowa State Club.
which was organized mainly TO get an
Endorsement OF the Taft policies at the
August convention. Garst was sup
ported by Senator'S Cummins and Dol
liver on a progressive platform.
Another contest which showed the
sympathy which Iowa holds for the
insurgents movement in Congress was
that between Prouty. progressive. and
Congressman Hull, standpatter. in the
Seventh district Prouty carried every
county. his unofficial majority being
3,lO6. Even the most sanguine progress
sive had hoped for little better than
small margin.
Two years ago Hull was nominated
by forty votes over PrOuty. The re-
markable shift IS attributed solely 10

Congressman, of whom Hull was one.
