about 40 cents on the dollar5 Now HAT

the enormous salaries andlfSes that are paid
to public officers. The worlinguen. can
remedy this by their ballaIs. The ouestion
is, will they use them 2"
and, We would add, the farmer Is now
selling wheat at seventy cents per
ksshel when he sold it then Tor 81 per

Is Grant one hundred par cent. ahler
and more valuable to this country than
good old Abraham Lincoln was! We
think not.

our SUCCESS.

The success Of the ASr1-MosoPoL1sr
has far surpassed our most sanguine ex-
pectations. We hare already,-in six
weeks,- . circulation consid-
erably larger than either Of the
Grange papers in the State; and sub
scribers are coming in It the rate Of
$50 to 200 per week. All this is spon-
t,neous, Is we have but one travelling
agent in the State, and it testifies to the
fact that some such paper as the A1r1-
MoNopoI.Isr was needed and demanded
by the people.
Our success will simply be an incen'
tive to continue we'll doing.
We thank the generous friends who
haveso- energetically contributed to oul
q ccess.

TO SUBSCRIBERS.

Very many Of our subscribers have
taken the ANTI MoSopoLIsr with an un-
Outstanding that they wore to pay up
on the LIST of September. We would
respectfully remind them Of the fact
and ask that they send in their money
before the issue Of our next number.
We would also ask such of our
agents as have raised clubs, payable on
the lst of September, to be good enough
to remit as soon as possible.
We would suggest that all moneys sent
us, be forwarded by postal order. draft,
check OF by registered letters.
Our subscription list is increasing so
rapidly that we have been compelled to
resort to the patent process of printing
the names Of our subscribers. The
figures after each subscribers name on
the margin Of his paper, indicate the
time to which he has paid:-thus, "John
Jones, Oct. Is, 1874" signifies that
John has paid up to that date. If no
date is given, it indicates that John is
in arrears, and he should hurry to pay
UP; for We have high authority for the
declaration, that
"Delinquents on the printers books,
Will never enter heaven"
1t is very probable that mistakes
have been made. If SO, we want ou1
friends to write US and We will correct
them. Our agents who have raiset
clubs, are requested to indicate to whom
they will have their presentation cor,
sent.
We again beg leave to express on
thanks for the unprecedented success
which the generosity of the people ha
given us. We will labor to deserve It.

THE ANTI-MoNOPOLx NEWS.
PAPERS,.

We sre glad to learn thss our old
friend, A. G. Ball, who fed from, Martin
county before the inundation Of: grass
hoppers- has transferred his ability
and energy to st. Peter. We hope
the people of that locality will give him
a generous support. He will give them
in return An original and able paper.
Our friends must not. ignsse the
power of the public press. There is no
substitute forit. If you wouM' have
just principles triumph, support the
papers thar advocate those principles !;
and let these which do do not, look to
the Monopoaists alone for support
We have, in this State, many
very abls' papers representing
the various. shades of sentiment
embraced IN the Autobiography
movement. But that it would be
inyidious to discriminate, where all are
working together for good we would
be glad to reser especially to few Of
sur best papers.
We trust that, from this time for
ward, every journalist identified. with
the Autobiography party will feel. the
Gll force Of the responsibility resting
upon him; and will DO his utmost to
make his paper worthy of the cause.
And we sincerely hope that those
journals which are now struggling. be-
tween.a sense Of fidelity to an. eAkte
political organization, and sense Of
duty to the. public, will cast their pre-
JUDGES aside, and come in and help us
make the Anti-Monopoly party, alltAat
its best friends could hope to see it.

THE BALL OPENED.

The Anti-Monopolists of the First
District have led off in gallant style.
Judge Waite, who was nominated on
the first ballot, is one of the purest and
clearest-headed men in the State, and
withal one of the most popular. He IS
in full accord with the people; a plain,
practical man of the people; and We
prophecy that he will make one of the
most thorough and energetic canvasses
ever seen in the Northwest.
Dunnell's fate is sealed. A united
party "a righteous cause an hon

word as fail.

natural allies. In the Greeley cam.
paign, in Dakota county, they gave the
l. liberals larger share Of the county
tick ct than they were entitled to upon
any reasonable basis. Let the same
liberal spirit and wise counsels prevail
now. Lei the whole people move to-
gether. It will be poor rccompense
for the saving of Alfew dollars on wood
boxes, should Da VITA county send FIVE
men to the Legislature, over whose
election Todd, Stebbins & Co.
will celebrate q. war dance; and
who, when the Legislature assemblies,
will get into bed with Ramsey, Bill
King, Joe Wheelock and all the rest of
that dirty company.
Go slowly, gentlemen. Don't be
fooled. The cloven hoof sticks out too
plainly.
In some sense these remarks apply to
Sibley, LIE Sueur and other counties.
The enemy are at work to divide our
forces. Remember the national aspects
Of the great campaign in which we are
now engaged. Our Metheren in Iowa,
Wisconsin, Illinois, Kansas, and Indi-
ana, all look anxiously to us. Shall
we strengthed their hands next winter
by the election of man who will labor
with the men they send to the Seppte,
to reform abuses and improve the for
tunes of the agricultural classes, or
shall we put block in their way?
Remember we can never achieve
thorough national reform until the new
movement places a Reformer in the
chair now occupied by Grant. Then
and not till tn IN can we obtain those
great works Of internal improvement so
necessary to the prosperity Of this
great, interior, food-prodacing region.
Shall we sacrifice all this for a, wood
box? Shall we sell our birthright for a
mess of>pottage?

THE PRICE OF WHEAT.

The low price of wheat at present
is the result, to considerable extent,
Of panicky feeling; which Minnesota
has helped, in part, to produce.
We have set Of farmers who always
see magnificent crop in their fields
before harvest, and who think they are
helping the State and themselves to
spread their belief forth in letters to
newspapers. And then we have lot
Of interested spectators, who desire to
see the market broken, and who seize
upon these manifestations Of folly, and
telegraph them all over the world un-
til even John Bull, in his counting
house In Liverpool, says, 'What, Min
nesota-thirty millions of bushels
seeking export to Liverpool the
Northwestern Uaited' States overflow
ing with superintendent food! Thomas,
give orders to my brokers' to sell at
once"
And dovng goes, the price 3d., per
quarter; and then II tambles twice that
amount in Milwaukee,; and our wiseacre
fsrmer haulssin load of hh crop,
which has turned out about half what
ne prophecied, land he finds he csn get
about 70 cents per busHsf for it.!
Remember, Hereafter, that ssthe truth
is q pretty thing and uaiat it is better
to wear long face before harvest CHAN
after harvest.
We talked the sther day to- an cid
friend and experienced farmer. Of, Taa.-
kota' county, F. c. Carpenter, now'tens~
porarliy residing in Minneapolis. He
toldEus he had been, over Large mart
OF Dakota county, one of thesbest apr;-
caturaf counties in the, Stats, and. he.
thought he was safe in saying that the.
average wheat crop. Of the. county
woud'not exceed thirteen bushels pe,e
acre he had visited many fields that,
yielded at the threshing machine orlv,
eight and ten bushels pr acre.
Nowrwhen it is remembered that am
averagsexport to England is about six
ty milton bushels, it can readily be-.
seen Tat Minnesota's twenty-five orr
thirty million bushels il large itemy
to De taken into account in fixing the.
worlds price.
The Oranges ought to appoint conn
mlttees and expose the wind-bags who
represent US As overAowing with wheat.
In the meantime let us have facts not.
guesses, from our friends--fgures from
the note books Of the threshers.

Is astonishing tho amount of fatigue that

all over London and its environs; they are
at every church festival within possible
reach, get into perfect auster over
Easter and Christmas decorations, convert
priest hunting Unto On exhilsrating sport,
and, In fact, lead very last lie under tho
shadow OF tho Church. To do many Of
them credit, they are early commandments
and sufficiently obedient in theory to
written dogma. They also lay 10 their
soul the 1altering JUNCTION that thus max.

beneficial to'them, Armed with
