GIVE THE PEOPLE THE FACTS. Municipal ownership is likely to be a question of considerable im portance in this city. Recognizing that fact, the Republican Gazette is willing to accept articles of reason able length bearing on this subject, and invites parties interested to put their views on paper for publi cation. The question is an import ant one it should be conceded that alt citizens, without regard to their specific opinions, are honest in wishing to do the best thing for the city's welfare and to that end a full and frank discussion in the newspapers may be helpful. The tax payers will be called upon to vote some day and they should be able to do so intelligently. Come forward with your arguments.— Republican Gazette. We are very glad that the Ga zette has changed its views some what on the telephone question. A few weeks ago it declared that it was perfectly willing to accept as final the report of a committee which had been appointed by the Commercial Club. This committee reported point blank against mu nicipal ownership, against competi tion, against taxing the local com pany anything for a franchise and as opposed to any litigation against the company. Since_the report was published the Tribune has proven by figures received directly from other cities that the committee's report was entirely erroneous on most of the points presented. We published this three weeks ago, but as yet no one has seen fit to attempt to defend the figures presented by the committee or to show that those presented by the Tribune are wrong. We assume that the com mittee by its silence admits that they have been deceived in the mat ter of figures. In any event, the adoption of the report by the Com mercial Club settled nothing. Now, why does not the Gazette, if it believes the matter ought to be discussed, lead off with an editorial giving its opinion in the matter? If it believes the committee was right in its report, let it say so. If it believes municipal ownership wrong, let it say so and give its reasons. We believe municipal ownership is right and have been oar reasons every week. Here is a mighty good chance for a little controversy that will be of interest and will be instructive to the citizens of the city. If the edi tor of the Gazette does net feel competent to write such articles, let him secure somebody to write them for him. We are ready to prove every assertion made in our paper during the last three weeks, with facts and figures but were just about despairing about being able to arouse any open opposition that would give us a chance to con tinue the discussion. We are ex ceedingly pleased to have Brother Crosby propose a little publicity. We are strong believers in publicity campaigns. Bosses, crooks and "interests" believe in the "gu shoe" campaign, where they can whisper one thing to one person and something else to another per son. Turn on the light of publi city! I-L. can harm no legitimate interest. Give us a whirl, Brother Crosby. MORE PROSPERITY FOR THE BONDHOLDER. A few days ago Joe Cannon by a slight nod indicated that the House was at liberty to pass a certain currency bill known as the Vree land bill. The House immediately got busy and passed the measure in few minutes. The bill is an "emergency currency" measure legalizing the issue of clearing house certificates and MAKING THEM REDEEMABLE IN GOLD BY E GOVERNMENT. Of course certain industrial bonds are sjf^^^^^^^^^w^M'%^ to be made the basis of circulation. Thus will the value of the bonds concerned be increased by legisla tion, benefitting a certain class of men—which is the main considera tion in latter day financial legisla tion. Furthermore, it will re-es tablish the "endless chain" worked so beautifully under the Cleveland administration to force the govern ment to issue bonds to replenish the gold reserve. Government bonds are a very handy thing to have around and the supply must be in creased some way if the financiers are to be kept from pouting and crying. Of course it would not do the government to issae emer gency currency that would be "pa ternalism" affecting all the people, whereas everybody knows that the government is only step-father to the mass of the people, the "inter ests" being its own children whose wants must be supplied as soon as made known. Only fifteen of the republican members had the moral courage to vote against this iniquit ous measure. The democratic members voted solidly against it. When the bill reached the senate Aldrich struck out all but the enact ing clause and substituted his late bill for the House bill and passed it—Aldrich being, as is well known, a clear majority in the senate. It is not known as yet which bill is the worst, but as soon as that is de termined it will probably be report ed by the conference committees and passed. There is just one ray of hope—that an agreement cannot be reached on that point and so both the bills may be put to sleep. Congressman Volstead has "made good" as far as securing a share of the public buildings appropriation for this district is concerned. Willmar, the largest municipality in the district, gets $50,000 for a government building and site. Democratic State Convention. The democratic state convention held in St. Paul last Thursday was the largest and most enthusiastic gathering of its kind ever held in Minnesota. Every county in the state was represented, and in must instances with full delegations. The reason for this was not hard to find. It was the overwhelming sentiment in favor of Gov. John A. Johnson that brought all these peo ple to the capital city to help se cure for him an undivided and enthusiastic delegation from his na tive state. And he got it by a tre mendous majority. A great effort has been made by the dailies of the cities to create an impression that there was a great deal of bitterness between the Bryan and Johnson factions. Such was not the case, however. While a few hot headed fellows of the Manahan tribe have done their best to stir up bad blood, they did not succeed in doing more than earn a decided contempt for themselves by their unfair tactics. Beyond the feeling against two or three of those fellows, there was no bit terness in the struggle. It could not be, in view of the fact that an overwhelming majority of the dele gates had been enthusiastic follow ers of Bryan in two campaigns, and have not changed their opinions as to his personality and his princi ples. But they had also learned to repose implicit confidence in the ability and integrity of Johnson, and they believed that his chances for election, if nominated, were better than those of Bryan. It was thus purely a question of availabil ity, but with the friendly feeling entertained for Bryan by the John son men there could be no bitter ness coming from their side. The Bryanites did not fight against the endorsement of Johnson they fought only for an endorsement of yan as second choice. This they would unquestionably have got, had it not been generally felt that such an action would have weak ened Johnson's chances. The speeches on both sides were very temperate in tone. In fact, the writer has never attended any con vention before where two contend ing factions treated each other so considerately in their speeches as was done at this convention. The result will be that whether Johnson or Bryan receives the nomintaion, the Minnesota democracy will be practically a unit for the nominee. As an example of the fairness of the Johnson faction it may be men tioned that in the twelfth judicial district a Bryan man was put on the committee on resolutions, altho there were only eleven Bryan men out of eighty-nine in that district and he was elected without opposi tion. The same thing was done in the district in which Mr. Knox lived. He was the most active Bry an man in the convention, yet he was put on that committee and thus given an opportunity to present a minority report. WILLMAR BOAT LIVERY. Row boats for rent.

Nelson, at house by landing. I3i" PROHIBITION PRESS BULLETIN. Joh A. Shields, Minneapolis. The State Prohibition Convention will be held on June 8 and 9 for the purpose of nominating candidates for the state offices and electing egates to the National Prohibition Convention to be held at Columbus, Ohio, July 15 and 16. During the first four months of 1907 under license there were 6,381 arrests in Atlanta, Georgia. Dur ing the corresponding four months in 1908 under prohibition there were 3,374 arrests. Comparing the same months' under license there were 1,937 arrests for drunkenness arid under prohibition 475 arrests for the same offense. Bear in mind that there has been no change in the general policy of the city—not even in the police department—ex cept as to the right of the liquor traffic to live and flourish. It has reduced drunkenness to less than 25 per cent of its former figures and has cut general arrests practically in the middle. It may be that Pro hibition does not PROHIBIT—but it does decrease crime. It makes it safer for your unprotected daugh ter on the streets, or for your wife to walk out unattended. It makes a cleaner, better, and brighter place to live. Figure the rest of it as you will. In April, 1907, Knoxville had 110 Boozeries. In April, 1908, they were shut. The result was that the total arrests decreased from 4.18 with license, to 245 under prohibi tion. The arrests from drunken ness decreased from 244 under li cense to 104 under prohibition. Liquor dealers are such patriotic people! And public it They actually buy newspaper space by the yard and send out circulars by the ton, in order to prove to the "dear people" that under Prohibi tion taxes would take an unprece dented jump and to beg that they (the liquor dealers) may be granted the privilege of paying taxes selves—of course, from the money that they have filched from a class of citizens who can least afford to pay it, thus keeping them down and out and making paupers, idi ots and criminals, for the sober and industrious to support. WILLMAR'S FURRIER. Being equipped with a fur sew ing machine, I am prepared to do all kinds of fur work and repairing. Bring in your furs that you wish sewed, and your fur coats and jack ets that need repairing before next winter. Now is the time to have the work done. f^ The Brewers' Publicity Depart ment has been saying much as to the criminality in Maine and com paring it with crime in other states, carefully avoiding compari son with any states in the North Atlantic division. Maine has less crime than any other state in that Division, which division according) vr to the special census report on pris-' oners averaged 121.6 prisoners for each 100,000 population, whereas Maine has but 70. The "instruc tive" figures which the Booze Boomers are scattering broadcast over the nation seem to be picked up indiscriminately from the "pie box." Brother Fairbanks seems to be getting it from all sides on account of his "forty cocktaiis." The car toonists have taken a number of falls out of him, and now the Meth odist General Conference sideti*acks its other business and injects into its proceedings a resolution that "No Methodist can consistently support a man for President who is not a total abstainer." Yet the Methodists are not the only ones— a railroad company will not support a mau for a herder of box cars on less character qualification. "Smiler," the one-eyed philoso pher who has charge of the back page of "Both Sides," wonders "just why the Prohibitionists wiil place a curse upon the entire saloon business simply because one saloon out of one hundred is a disorderly resort." He further laments that the proposition is beyond his com prehension. The Prohibition Bulle tin is not responsible for "Smi-claim.—New lers"' lack of comprehensive abil ity. Some men are born that way.' The Prohibitionists do not curse the br-iness simply because one saloon in a hundred is disorderly but be cause about 99 per cent of them aie just as disorderly as the law will allow—and a big majority more so because they can't run without de bauching manhood because the average saloon, according to the official organ of the liquor dealers of the West, is a "Hell Fire club" and a "place of shame and debauch ery," and "the stranger who enters is at once invoiced, labeled and damned because the ordinary tippling house is the breeding place of crime, the birthplace of anarchy, the cradle of lawlessness, the home of all kinds of dastardly diabolism, and the grave of everything that refining and uplifting, and the murderer of everything that is vir tuous and pure. 14.

ELECTRIC LINE PROPOSED FROM MINNEAPOLIS TO MONTEVIDEO Promoters of a new suburban railway which is to extend from Minneapolis to Montevideo expect to have cars in operation to Medi cine Lake this summer. The right of way has been secured for the first six miles of the line and is ready for grading. Negotiations are under way to use motor cars of the Union Pacific railway type on the road. Terminals will be se cured in Minneapolis, which it is proposed to reach over the Ply mouth avenue line of the Minnea polis street railway company from the city limits. The new road is to be built in blocks of six miles each, as it is fi nanced. The tentative route for the first forty miles is to Wayzata, Long Lake, Stubb's bay and Win-Minneapolis sted, all on the direct line westward to Montevideo. The purpose of the promoters is evidently to divide the territory which lies between the Great Northern and Milwaukee roads.
