A VICIOUS NIGHTMARE.

We reprint in another column an ar
t1cle by William Randolph Hearst, 1t
is a wicked masterpiece of brilliant
rhetoric, cynical sophistry and speci-
oHs demagogy.
1t paints our country as a nation of
swine wallowinS in swill of dollars.
1t depicts Our Senate as a dive of
crooks; our public officials (nation.
state anod municipaD as an army of
traitors; our editors as a band of
panders; our Judges as bevy of pros
titutes 1t represents our offices, our
laws, our evidence, our judicial de-
clsions and our sentences as all auc.
TONED off and knocked down to the
highest bidder. 1t shows a corrupt
plutocracy tyrannizing over an emas,
culated electorate. 1t is a nightmare
of debauched democracy.
Thank God! it is but a vicious night.
mare.
1t is easy for a man of Mr. Hearst's
dlalectic deftness to argue from a.
Lorimer and Stephenson to a whole
United States Senate for rent or sale.
to expand a grating Assemblyman
here and recreant Mayor there into
faithless body of public servants; to
generalize from rotten lawyers to a
rotten bar, from corrupt Judge to a
corrupt bench, from some unscrupl-
GUS rich rascals to the unscruplousness
OF wealth, from some abused Door
victims to the persecution of the poor.
He could as readily argue from a Nc
Namara to the righteousness of
trades-unionism, from Adams county.
o., to putrid proletariat-bu he re-
Trains!
Can Mr.. Hearst not see that with all
the dark abuses that undoubtedly af
flict us, yet, never in the history of
the Nation has government been
cleaner and grating more precarious?
Never has the lawless rich man been
SO sternly warned by the example of
a walsh dead with the prison pallor
still upon him, an Armour and a Swift
brought into the prisons very shad-
ow; and if there is the Injustice of a
Morse now at liberty, at least there
was the justice of a Morse in jail
Never has lawless poor man been
more promptly saved from an unjust
length of sentence than was even such
a despicable creature as Brandt,
against all the resources of wealth
and power.
Does not Mr.. Hearst know from per.
sonal experience that never was it
harder for man to advance his polit.
ical ambitions by the use of money?
Does he not know that Qever was
1t harder for man to further his sell
fish aspirations through subsidized
newspapers?
Does he not know that never was
there so active q movement on foot
to distribute the burdens of taxation
more equitably between the rich and
poor? That never was there SO much
done to help the poor by social-war.

Duluth, Sept. 12.-The state mill
tia may be called out to protect the
property of the street railway COM
pany and lives and limbs of the pas
sengers who have temerity enough to
venture to use the street cars during
the strike which is now in progress
here. So serious stage did the riot
ing at the West End became last
evening that C. H. Troyer, chief of
police, admitted himself unable to
cope with the situation and asked
the sheriff's Office for help.
Sheriff Mining was on the range,
but hurried back today to look over
the situation, and it is considered
likely that he will swear in as many
deputies as possible to go on duty
this evening. It may also be that he
is convinced that even with deputies
he will be unable to handle the sit
uation, and will ask the governor for
the assistance of the state troops.
Herbert Warren, manager of the
street railway company, this morn
ing intimated that if some of the
proper officials do not ask the COVER
nor for assistance, he will, and he
will explain the situation fully to the
state executive.

For Governor.

The following letter has been re-
ceived from the Sank Centre Herald.
It is self explanatory:
''Some three weeks ago The Herald
mailed 400 letters into all parts of
the state asking for careful estimates
on the political sentiment. Five let
tiers were sent into each county, to
men who are we'll known for their
standing in the different communi-
ties in which they reside.
s'In each county one letter was sent
to a newspaper publisher, lawyer,
a business man and two farmers
The recipients were asked give esti-
mates on the presidency, and on first
and second choice for governor. Re-
plies have been received from 225
and the returns tabulated above. Of
the replies received many were in
complete and quite a number made
no estimates either on president or
on governor The figures show Roos-
evelt ahead of Wilson over two to
one with Taft a negligible quantity
"The vote on governor was badly
mixed up but the tabulated returns
show Lee for first choice, nearly three
times as strong as Eberhart, his near
est competitor. Spooner is a neg
ligible quantity. Young is weak on
first choice votes but the strongest
of the field On second choice. Eber.
hart leads Lee five on second choice
while all STRAW votes are more
or less unreliable, yet this particular
one is more extensive than any YET
taken, and should give Herald read
ers something like line on the sit
uation.

STRIKERS
SERIOUS
(By United Press J.

Duluth, Sept 12.-Insulted and
jeered at every block, about 100
strike breakers are attempting to run
Duluth's cars today. All men were
laid off at p. m. last night through
fear of possible violence.
The strike is on in full force and
patrons who use the cars are in con-
slant danger. There are no indica-
lions of a settlement. Manager Her.
bert Warren, when interviewed this
morning, stated that attempts would
be made to operate cars tonight, but
such a course is sure to result in more
violence.
Mr.. Warren today reiterated his re-
fusal to meet representatives of the
strikers. The strikers say they mean
business and will not give in.

MARSHALL KILLS
A CRAZY BREED

Grand Forks, Sept. 12.-George
Grumbo was shot and killed about
mile from Drayton, Pembina county,
at o'clock last evening, supposedly
by Marshal Slater of Drayton, the
shooting of Grumbo being the culmi-
nation of series of exciting depra-
dations by the victim.
The man, half breed, was brought
down in his tracks after he had Civ
en- posse of Drayton citizens a
chase of about mile, and just after
he had turned on his pursuers, his
revolver in his hand, evidently pre-
pared to fight.
Three times Grumbo shot at Mar
shall Slater, each time missing him.
The third time, when the officer Or
dered him to hold up his hands and
surrender, Grumbo declared that he
| wouldn't be taken alive.
That the breed meant to carry out
this threat, and that he was just
about to open new fight on his pur-
suers, was his evident intention when
the bullet downed him.
Grumbo, crazed with liquor, had
beaten his wife, driving her from
their home. She sought protection
at the home of her mother, Mrs
Louis Grumbo, and was followed by
her drunken husband f1ourishing q
revolver and threatening to take the
life of his mother-in-law and others
on the premises.

Daddy's gone huntin';
Get little rabbit skin
To wrap the baby buntin in.
Only in the case Of the Indian who
got the rabbits to make the rabbit
skin blanket being shown at the
county fair daddy had to get three
hundred. The blanket is the hand
work of an Indian woman on the Red
Lake reservation and contains the
skins of 100 rabbits. They were
shared and shot in the winter when
their coats were white. The blanket
is an excellent sample of the kind
OF blankets which used to be quite
common among the Indians. It is
for sale at SIS.
The rabbit skin blanket is only
one OF the many articles being shown
by the Indians. Among the other are
bead work leggings, moccasins, pa
pose cradles, leather bead covered
aprons and numerous articles of
wearing apparel. The Indian exhi-
DIT also includes samples of garden
produce raised both in the individual
| gardens Of the school children and in
| the general schol farm. The LARGEST
pumpkin was raised by a boy in the
first grade.
| Live stock began to arrive at the
lair grounds about noon of THURSDAY
and by evening, all of the entries
had been made. The exhibits of cat
tie show that the stock of the farmers
in this county is being bred up ev-

slres. Some of the young stock
should would compare favorably with
that shown at the state fair.
