Editor Anti -Monopolist
As the political campaign approaches
one cannot help but feel Interested in and
a desire to know who ic to rule the desti-

Gubernatorial term. Is it to be q man
selected from that hot-bed Of corruption

ones eclected by the intelligent voters OF
the State. We sincerely hope and trust
il NAV be the latter. Since the Double
Ender's appearance, and its advocacy of
Mr.. Fisher for that high and honorable
position, we have taken occasion to en-
auire from the leading Democrats and
Liberal Republicans Of Wabashaw county
as to whether it would be policy for the
people to support Mr.. Fisher in that con-
nection in case he was placed in noEina.
ton. Their opinion as near as can learn
is this: While they respect Mr.. Fisher
, as a good man and time honored Dem
crat, it is certainly humiliating to hi:
friends to support him; and the up.sho
of it all is, that they cannot do so will
any propriety or seli-respect to them
selves. Neither has Mr.. Fisher any RICH
to indulge in any such hope. Let Mr.
Fisher be presented under different aus
pieces, and from different camp from tia
in which he now drills. and the resul
might be different. The people Of vs.

HAssAN, Hennepin Co., Mimi,
May 10th, 1875.
Editor Anti Monopolist:
In 1870 there were some thirty Dill
lions Of property in the United States:
An assessment of one per cent. would
raise three hundred millions. That
would constitute direct tax Of $lO,OOO
on million; $40 on thousand, &c.
That could be collected by the several
States through the some machinery oy
which they collect their own taxes; with
out much additional expense. Then
every man, rich or poor; would be inter-
ested IN economy and honesty. We
| could discharge an army Of tax or revenue
collectors. The government would no
longer be obliged to tax the vices OF the
people thereby becoming an interested
party in their decentralization. We could
have tree trade with the who'd world II
we liked. Farmers and every one else
could buy as cbeaply as they sold. Manu-
facturers could no longe. flood the coun-
try with shoddy goods and worthless ar
ticles as they do now. The love OF
country that is now weak sentiment
would become strong; for people love
country just in proportion as it protects
their rights and interests. None but
party slaves would fear to utter their
honest sentiments.
Truth and justice are bound to prevail
sooner or later. Your views, Mr.. Editor
on this subject, would be very interest
ing to your readers. Yours truly,
GORDON JAcKINs.
I'VE cordially agree with Mr.. Jackin' I
views. In fact we have presented sub
stantially the same thoughts several time
during the past few years.
But we can only reach direct taxation
: through an amendment to our present nj
tional constitution, which was cunningl
e contrived so that direct taxation no
! must be based on population and ne
y wealth. This would make one thousan
poor fronticrsmen in Minnesota pay
. much tax as one thousand rich men
y Massachusetts,. Hence we are driven
tariff to support the government.
The West should agitate for an amen
ment of the nationa, constitution, ar
d then rest our national taxes, where eve'
J: civilized nation places them, on the bds
v of wsolfh. But, IS we have said SEQ
= of times, while the Western people ha
ne cultivated their farms the Eastern Peep

The idea some Democrats have Of
union with the Anti, donopolists is very
much like the Bushman's theory OF mar
riage. He lays in wait for the lady OF
his love, beats her over the head with a
club until she is insensible, and then
drags her off by the legs, raw and
bloody.
A civilized union Of loving hearts and
willing hands they can't understand.
