...nation's wealthiest state legislature, and as the money floods in, Minnesotans will look for acquisitions: IBM, UPS, USX, GTE, Time Warner, Minnecorp, J.P. Olson, Chase Minnesota. Presidential candidates will hold their big, $100,000-a-plate fund raisers in Minneapolis, will pledge their support for water diversification and mention that, conservative though they be, they've always had a soft spot in their hearts for Hubert Humphrey...

Although she never mentioned China directly, Hillary Clinton left little doubt that she was chastising her hosts in Beijing in her address today at the U.N.'s Fourth World Conference on Women. "Freedom means the right of people to assemble, organize and debate openly," she said. "It means not taking citizens away from their loved ones and jailing them, mistreating them, or denying them their freedom or dignity because of the peaceful expression of their ideas and opinions."
