SOUTHERN RY. AND
SIX OTHER ROADS
In SOUTH ON LIST
I. c. c. Reports Ten Year
Earnings Subject To
Toll AT Total Of $36l,-
465,815.

The Interstate Commerce commits
sion has announced that 446 railroads
had recapturable earnings during the
10 years ending with 1880 and that
these were estimated at $361,465,S15.
The commission made its estimates
public after Commissioner Joseph B.
Eastman had handed them to the house
interstate m committee during
hearings on the recapture repeal bill.
The railroad tribunal is advocating
repeal of the law on the ground that
it is virtually unavoidable. The law
provides that when a railroads earn
ings are in excess of a fair return
on its property investment, one-half
of the excess must be given over to
the government. The commission has
ruled 5 "a per cent is a fair return.
The commissions statement showed
that only $1O,679,085 had been paid
by the roads and that only a small
portion of this money is not subject to
protest.
The commission has been able to
carry only two cases to a conclusion
and was reversed by the United States
supreme court on the first of these.
The second has never been finally ad-
Indicated.
Included in the recapture class are
the following southern railroads:
Southern railway, $~15,S3S,SS1; At
lantic Coast Line, $9,722,431; Kan
sas City Southern, $~3,712,4o2; Rich
mond, Fredericksburg & Potomac, ST.
S91,766;Gulf Coast Lines, $2,094,974;
Florida East Coast, $1,213,479; and

BY G. B. WOLLAN.


Well, at last they're of in earnest
for the 1892 campaign after a lot of
preliminary skirmishing by way of state
indorsing conferences and committee
meetings and what not. The voters
now know what kind of a choice they
have and from among how many they
must choose the nominees of the various
parties.
Judging by recent happenings and
the number of filings made in the
last two or three days, the choice is
going to be wide enough for any voter
especially from the numerical angle.
There win be primary election con-
tests in all three Minnesota party
camps, which will afford quite change
from recent years when the state pri-
mary contests have been confined al
most exclusively to the Republicans
The Republicans will have fights at
the June 20 primaries for both state
and congressional tickets. This was
assured as result of last Friday nights
so-called Progressive Republican mass
meeting, called by Tom Davis, in in
dorSing Franklin F. Ellsworth for
governor against Brown, regular"
indorsee.
That the Democrats would have a
nice little fight of their own at the
primaries became known some weeks
ago as result of the splitting up Of
their state convention into two camps,
regular" and jumpers" each putting
up full slate for state offices.
No real contest is expected on the
Farmer-Labor side of the fence for
state offices unless Mayor Julius
Reiter, Rochester, should file against
Gov Olson-but the Farmer-Laborites
will have a good free-for-an race for
the nine nominations for congressman
at-large, just as the Republicans will
have Indications are that there will
be at least 20 candidates of each of
these two parties, while the Democrats
may not have more than nine candi-
dates in the field. OF course, when
these lines were written there was still
time for big last day scramble to
hand $50 over to Mike Holm, secretary
of state, in the hope that the lightning
might hit EN-.
All the present nine Republican con-
greSsmen have filed for denomination
and so has Rep. John Paul Kvale, lone
Farmer-Laborite.
Other Republicans filing include Gov
Theodore Christianson, Sam A. Rask,
Blooming Prairie; State Sen. j. ".
Weber, Slayton; State Sen. Elmer E.
Adams, Fergus Falls; former State Sen.
L. P. Johnson, Mankato; Charles j.
Andre, st. Paul; George Reiners and
Knut Knutson, both of Benson, and

The list of aspirants for the Farmer
Labor nominations includes such war
riors of that faith as Rep. Kvale; for

FORT WAYNE, IND-Research into
the life of Abraham Lincoln has def
nitely established that George Wash
ington was the foremost Of Lincoln's
heroes, according to DR.. Louis A. War
rem, director of the Lincoln Historical
Research Foundation.
"The story OF Lincoln's boyhood in
terest in 'Weems' Life Of Washington
Is well known" Doctor Warren point
ed out In a statement made public
here, 'but It has only recently been
established how enduring those boy
hood Impressions turned out to be.
1T is difficult to exaggerate the in
nuence which Washington exerted over
the man who was destined to be ele-
waited to an equal place In the hearts
Of the American people. Certainly,
young Lincoln must have been inn
pressed when he read these words in
weems' biography Of Washington:

haps, be referred to more properly as
mass meeting"
| The official call" was sent out in
form of printed postcard notice to
list of delegates" presumably picked
| by Tom Davis himself The same kind
of informality marked the meeting it
self.
| Tom Davis, who admitted he has
been both Democrat and Farmer
Loborite and now claims to be a Re-
publican, called the meeting to order
as chairman, passed by the usual order
of election of temporary chairman by
motion from the floor, delivered the
keynote" address, acted as chairman
of both the resolutions and nominations
committees. as secretary and finally,
without any action by the convention
assumed the Office of permanent chair
man.
In an elegant and typically Davis
oman address Tom expressed the pur-
pose of this wonderful gathering of
forward looking Americans" as being to
return the Republican party to the
people" from its present alleged con-
troll by the chain banks, racketeers,
railroads and public utility corpora
tions.''
His remarks were frequently punctu-
ated by applause, especially when at
the outset he declared in his own
emphatic manner that this is not
boss-controlled convention" The audi
ence of about 500 was with him-that
is, except the scattering of regular
Republicans, Democrats and Farmer
Davis in action and see what would
happen.
However, toward the close of the
meeting, after Tom had completely
stolen the show and hogged the lime
light" as they say in theatrical slang,
after he had nominated Franklin F.
Ellsworth for governor and had read
| the resolution he had himself prepared
and declared them carried without OPP
portunity for discussion and amost
forgetting to call for the nays, Tom re-
peated in stentorian tones that this
is not boss-controlled convention"
You should have heard the howls
Of laughter that greeted the statement
this time! Even Toms best friends in
the crowd laughed Justify, almost for
getting to clap their hands, finding
better use for them in keeping their
sides from splitting. Tom sensed the
incongruity of the situation himself
after moment-and joined in the
laughter, even if it was at his expense.
He hasn't lost his sense of humor yet
As convention it was a derned good
one-man vaudeville show.
