In order to quiet the nerves of
Sister Fuller, the able and ag-
gressive editor of that excellent
newspaper, h e Little Falls
Daily Transcript, who is greatly
worried because M. D. Purdy of
Minneapolis has been named, in
stead of I. A. Caswell, as Min
nesota's member of the national
committee of the Progressive
party, let it be said that Mr..
Purdy was a member of the pro-
visional committee that called
the national progressive con-
ventlon, having been a delegate
to the republican national con-
vention, and it seemed fitting to
have him put on the national
committee of the new party.
Sister Fuller has formed h e
habit of jumping right up into
the air and offering an objection
whenever the third party move
ment is mentioned. Had S h e
been at Chicago she would have
jumped right up on her chair
and cheered the movement, and
then returned to her bailiwick
in Morrison county and boosted
for the third party and for what
it stands. It's going to be a
winner, good sister; better join
in and help. It'll do you more
good than anything that ever
happened to you before.

ON EVE OF GREAT BATTLE
Admiral Dewey Explains His Feel.
ings Before Little Fracas at
Manila.

Sitting in his Office recently and
contains the records of that fateful
day at Manila, asked Admiral Dewey
what was uppermost in his mind the
night before the battle of Manila,
when he contemplated entering har-
Dor mined with torpedoes. His eyes
sparkled as he replied:
"All night and all morning my mind
had reverted to one picture-that OF
Flag Officer Farragut, whom l first
met at New Orleans in 1861. There
were no admirals in those days, the
captains being the highest ranking
officers, and our commander was the
flag officer. We young cadets grew
instinctively to admire the intrepid
Farragut, and that night at Mobile
will never be forgotten, when his
voice rang out loud and clear:
"'Damn the torpedoes-full speed
ahead Somehow that command
would ring in my ears every time
danger confronted us. One does not
instinctively think of himself in such
moments, but of some hero whose life
has impressed him."
Then ventured to ask the admiral
why he did not give his command at
Manila in some dramatic and stentori-
an way like Farragut. With that
modesty known only to Dewey he re-
piled, 81 was not thinking of myself:
was thinking Of Farragut."
Dewey's command to begin one Of
the greatest battles in all history was
given in an ordinary tone, as If he
were simply ordering cup Of coffee.
History records it that he calmly said
to the commander: "Gridley, when
you are ready, fire."
History Is made by the men who
carry with them all their lives some
ideal, and &7ho, with limitless bravery
and courage give in less than sixty
seconds those commands that make
history for ages.-Joe Mitchell Chap

CAMPAIGN MATTER

The Herald b a made ar
engagements to secure campaign
matter, for publication, from the
Republican, the Democratic and
the Progressive party managers.
This will be published in The
Herald's news columns for the
benefit of it's readers. The Her.
aid is an independent newspaper
and desires to serve it's constitu-
ency in every line to the best of
it's ability, believing t h a all
parties should have a square
deal in the matter of political
news service. Democrats a n d
Republicans alike compose it's
constituency and The Herald is
sure they will appreciate it's en-
terprise in securing and publish
ing this matter. The public
will please bear in mind that
The Herald's opinions are to be
found in it's editorial columns.
It's news columns are open to all
legitimate matter. The first in
stalment of matter appears in
this issue, namely a statement
by the republican authorities of
their view Of the action of the
republican national commit e
relative to unseating certain
delegates at the Chicago conven-
ton in June.

the standard of the party in It's

whom every citizen can feel
proud to vote.
The convention was remark

tives, such principles and such
leaders, the cause deserves to

Mr.. Glenn Hosmer, the young law
yer, who had just hung out his shin
gle In a town on the Hudson river,
had not yet parted from romance. He
had been warned by veteran of the
bar that romance and law never
mixed. He would get married some
day, but there must be no emotions
about it that could not be substan-
hated by the compiled laws Of the
state of New York. The formality
must be about the same as starting
lawsuit against the owner of a COW
that had destroyed the garden OF q
neighbor.
Mr.. Hosmer accepted the advice
and was prepared to act on it when
he made a Journey to the city one
day and sat in chair car within
few feet Of Miss Blanche Ackworth,
who resided IN the next town above
him. He said to himself that her age
was about twenty: that her hair was
old gold; that her eyes were lovely.

her mouth was beyond comparison.
He felt great stirring of the heart
as he cast glances at the young lady.
He felt the law in him being replaced
by romance. There was not enough
in any law book in the land to ex-
press his admiration. He didn't know
her name nor abiding place, but those
were things to be found out.
Miss Blanche let fall the magazine
she was reading. Mr. Hosmer sprang
to pick it up. A squat man, with a
thick neck, was just too quick for
him. Mr. Hosmer fell back in his
chair and vowed that if he ever got
that squat man in the tolls of the law
he would squeeze the life out of him.
Miss Blanche dropped her handker-
chief, and Mr.. Hosmer sprang again.
bald-headed man was before him.
That settled baldhead in case he ever
had lawsuit. Miss Blanche looked
about for some one to tell her where
the Flatiron block was, and just as
Mr.. Hosmer had opened his mouth to
answer, the porter came along and
gave full Information. Five minutes

up and was saying:

all you can about that angel or I'll

the PROGRESSIVE PARTY

I'LL ] HVUHR SSIVl HhlI
The formation of the Progress
sive party in Chicago last week
marks a new epoch in American
politics. 1t puts the stamp of
genuineneSs on the wishes, de-
sires and efforts of the "plain
people" not only to secure their
rights but to maintain them
against the combined assaults of
corrupt politicians, crooked bus
iness and grasping interests.
For the past few years the
trend of events has been in the
direction of new political party
whose object should be to secure
equal rights and square deal
FOR all. The time is ripe for the
movement to take definite shape:
the Progressive convention in
Chicago grasped the opportun-
ity offered. The cause is bound
to win, if not this time, in the
near future; but if surface indi-
cations can be taken at their
face value, victory awaits the
Progressive party in November.
Never before in the history of
the nation has such gathering
been held as that which assem-.
bled in the Coliseum in Chicago
August 5. In personnel, in en-.
Sthusiasm, in unanimity of pur-
pose and action, in it's advocacy
of the rights of the human race,
at stands unique in the annals of
civilization. The political boss.
>the ward heeler. the red-nosed
hanger-on were all absent. In
their places were men eminent
IN the nation whose reputation
and character are above re.
proach and who in point of abil-
lty are the peers of any: Young
men, bright, enthusiastic. intel.
ligent fellows prepared to take
up the work their fathers must
soon lay down; women whose
names stand for all that is pure,
noble and of good report; and
all inspired by high resolves,
lofty aspirations, and something
akin to religious zeal for the
cause in which they have en-
listed.
The platform adopted takes
advanced ground. Questions
which the Democrats and the
Republicans ignored are fear
lessly discussed, and planks
which were rejected by the old
parties are placed in the declar-
alton of faith of the new organ
lzation. Prominent among these
a re the initiative, referendum
and recall, and woman suffrage.
The people want these things
and the new party responds to
the call. The Progressive party
stands for tariff that shall give
to honest labor it's just share of
the profits of business. It stands
for the abolition of child labor
and the just recognition and re-
Enumeration of woman in the in
dustrial field. It's platform is
one on which every citizen can
stand and work for the better
ment of social, industrial and
political conditions.
The question of leadership is
