He is the most notable type of the genius jollier that Minnesota has ever seen. Governor Van Sant can lay it on thicker, and with less offense, when he has a mind thereto, than most any man we know of. If the governor's speeches during the past two years could be put into a pot and boiled down there would be enough concentrated taffy to fur nish forth every candidate for office in the state for a good many years to come. But the governor mixes a good deal of truth with his flattery and few men have of late so truthfully lauded the great state of Minne sota as he. The other day he de clared that some of us would live to see u,000,000 people in Minne sota and we firmly believe that he is right. When that day arrives the share of northern Minnesota will be no small portion. ONE Samuel Fullerton, who loves notoriety like the duck loves water is now much exercised in mind over that Venison dinner which Congressman Steenerson gives today to his friends at Washington. Mi-. Fullerton is quite sure that the game is con traband and he does so love a shining mark that he is breaking out at column's length in the twin city papers about the mat ter. Meanwhile Congressman Steenerson is getting a lot of cheap advertising. GOVERNOR VAN SANT SINCE is find ing that his support of Collins is a, very work-a-day affair. Een nepin county republicans who think they are it, are now de manding of the governor that he appoint Judge Elliott to succeed Collins or they will have none of the latter gentleman for gover nor. It might have been easier if the administration had hit upon somebody from private life with which to try to defeat Dunn. he got into politics Mark Hanna has become quite an orator but his best orations have been the election day returns for the past few years. For eloquence they are hard to match. HE first report of Secretary Cortelyou of the department of commerce is in print. The de partment has more than proved the wisdom of its establishment and the secretary is sanguine of its increasing importance. JOHN GOODNOW IS home from China to answer the charges made against him. He will make every effort to be Shanghaied once more. mr^fim^ yi y^y^y FOUR.
