The anti-monopolist. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn.) 1874-1878, 1875-02-18
OUR PLATFORM.

We print in full. in another column, the
platform adopted Feb. 10th. 1875, by a
caucus composed of all the members OF
the Legislature who belong to the Demo-
cratic, Liberal Republican or Anti-Mo-
nopoly party. We invite the attention
of all our readers to it.
The sixth resolution we consider SO i'm
portant that we have placed it at the head
Of our editorial columns. and shall keep it
there. like flag nailed to the mast.
This platform cannot be excepted to by
any honest and reasonable man; and the
sixth resolution by its frank and manly
acceptance Of the great results of the ter
rible convulsion through which the .coun
try has lately passed, furnishes a com
plete answer to the charge that our party
desires to restore slavery in the South
to destroy universal suffrage, and gener
ally to set the country back where thu
whole war will have to be fought ovel
again.
With this sixth resolution upon thei
Aag staff, the Opposition step forwart
and assume their old Jeffersonian posi-
ton, as the party Of Liberty, Reform ant
Progress, In hoe signo rinces.

against loss and the people against unjust I'M
positions and determinations.
Yeur committee therefore submit the follow
ing resolutions
That this Nationa. Grange earnestly invites
tie attention Of Congress to the necessity OF
a speedy completion Of the Texas Pacific rail-
road. and asks of that body reasonable 0td TO
the company which has inaugurated this great
national enterprise, under such cautionary re,
strictions and safeguards as the prudence and
wisdom of Congress may devise, to guarantee
the government against loss and protect the
agricultural interests Of every section OF Inc
country against unjust determinations in thu
price OF transportation.
Iu other words, it was piece OF unmlt
igated villainy on our part, in 1867, t.
contemplate the possibility of helping
work, which the National Grange now de
clares ought to be helped; which is II
the interest of the whole people; and de
manded by the National Grange in tn
name of ''equal justice to all sections 0
our common country
TRY again, gentlemen.

it IS alleged he stole the pork. What
witnesses will he call How is he to ac-
quit himself! And, suppose the charge
made by us, might 1t not cling to him for
life and to his children after him! Might
he not be pointed at in the streets, years
from now, and the remark made, sthere
goes the fellou that stole that pork -
And yet. see the gibness with which
he insinuates and suggests that we COM
mitted, OF attempted to commit. the
crime Of BRIBERY He does not make a
direct charge; he damns us with sug-
gestion. He does not say who we at
tempted to bribe; for if he did we might
call the witness to the stand or impeach
his veracity.
He charged that we had demanded or
received $4,000 from Senator Wilkinson
for having withdrawn, six years ago,
from the contest for U. S. Senator in ia
vor of Mr.. Wilkinson. We at once called
on Mr.. Wilkinson, in the Senate to say
whether that charge was true or false
and he branded it at once as lie cut out
of whole cloth.
Now this Tribune fellow skulks behind
an impersonality.. He fires his poisoned
arrows from behind harmless interroga'
ton. We will meet him in thu same
spirit. We ask him, chow about that
pork 2 Let him 60 to work and pro
duce the affidavit Of every man he evel
lived neighbor to that he didn't stea
that pork. And when he gets through
there will still be reasonable doub
whether he didn't skip the very man ou1
harmless interrogatory referred to.
And when he has answered that ques
ton we have few more, equally harm
less ones, we propose to ask him.
But far be it from US to say that n
stole the pork. We simply ask him, d.
he7 That's all. And if he don't prov
himself innocent then let the people dra'
their own conclusions.
The anti-monopolist. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn.) 1874-1878, 1875-02-18
DR. sCHmoELE,s CARD.

In another column We print, from the
Philadelphia Press of Feb. 18th, card,
from DR.. VIM. Schmoele of Philadelphia,
member of the Executive Committee Of
the Memphis and Ell Paso Railroad Com
pany, which completely and finally dis
poses of the shameful SANDER with which
the whole State has rung for the past ten
days. DR.. Schmoele testifies that we re.
ceived no money whatever from the com
pany; that we declined to receive the
stock or agreement for $4,000; and that
he has the same, the blanks in it never
having been filled out. He further shows
that even the conversation had with HIN
as to our acting for the company as then
attorney, related altogether to services t.
be rendered after the close of our tern
as a member of Congress, and occurred
in the last week Of our term, when i
would have been impossible for US t.
have rendered them any service as mem
Der.
We are glad that this exculpation ha
followed so closely on the heels of tn
SANDER. We had feared that clou'
might res. upon our good name for man,
months to come, and until an investiga
ton could be ordered by Congress.
We now ask that the newspapers whicl
have been so prompt to spread this scan
dal before the world, will be equal
prompt to lay before their readers th'
refutation; and We expect that Republica
newspapers especially will do us this act
justice.
Our public acts and private charactt
are, Of course, legitimate subjects for p
litical criticism but surely no party
principle can be permanently advance
BY Islander and falschood. Let justice
done.

the members of the Legls-

cratic parties, in caucus as
sembled -
Resozved, sisah, That the
adoption Of the l4th, 10th
and 10th amendments to
the Federal Constitution
closed a great era in poll

of the struggles that grew
out of that system. These
amendments have been &C.
copied in good faith by al,
political organizations ano
the people Of all sections
Hereafter all parties mus

politics must turn upon TIN
questions of the presen

the charges against oursslf were based,
Get forth that our old enemy, Elihu B.

Fremont, $4,000 in gold, for Imposing

to say something on the bill. His wife was in
Illinois. and he desired to consult with the old
woman before he voted on the bill.
Mr.. Keegan attacked the bill as one coming
from the preachers" who always are
such friends OF the women, though he was sur
ed Beecher seemed to prefer that KIND.
[Laughter] He (Keegan) exPressee the great
est indignation that such a bill should come
from such man. He believed all the women
would in time become preachers, ana the
children voters, if the thing continued
[Laughter.1
Mr. Berry said that in introducing the bill
tempting reform. Now every man, however
illiterate, was permitted to vote, also men OF
color; now in some OF the States women who
pay taxes are permitted to vote. It is a funda-
mental principle he believed that these who
payed taxes should have the right to vote. He
mitted to the people. It had been tried in
other States and been successful If the meas
ure was adopted it would be one step in the
march of wolnen's progress.
He referred to ignorant foreigners coming to
this country and being allowed to vote with
out being able to read the laws of the country,
while intelligent women were excluded.
Mr.. Keegan came back at him in defense Of
the foreign population in a style that created
great merriment, and carried the House with

SON Of the cost and capacity Of the two
systems he says that the cost Of the roll
ing superstructure and rolling stock Is:
about one-half that Of railways, the dead
weight Of trains about one-half, the re-
sistance Of loaded trains one-third, and
the starting resistance one-fifth. In ad--
dition to all this he claims that the roll
way is safer, smoother, more durable, and
that trains can be run at the same or

INNOCENT QUESTIONS.
The l{innea nolis Tribune SAWS:

We would like to know if he (Donnelly)
then during that Senatorial canvass) told .
member, whose vote he was trying to secure,
that he could afford to be liberal with his
friends because the ONCE Of Senator was worth
eco. 600 yearf When the member in aston
ishment said he had no idea the salary was SO
much, does he remember replying, suhstan-
tally. that the salary was not 50 much, but
that the perQuisites were % large that he could
afford to deal literally with tn ose Who aided in
his elections We are curious e know, also, u
| he did, during tnat canvass, onber any member
| three or tour thousand dollars for his vote, or
any other sum, or any sort Of . consideration
Now the inference from all this is that
the editor Of the Tribune knows the
names of the witnesses who can prove al
these things. What then restraiss him
from publishing their afidavitss Is il
love for us. Not at Ill; for he is doing
his level best to blast Us With inuendoes
lFhe had any such eSidence 'eossId he no.
Ipresen: it, Give rs the names Of thu
witnesses. Let us know what We are t
meet. We pronounce the whole story u
unmitigated lie.
| It will be observed that the 1ribun
does not allege these statements to b
true. 1t simply asks questions

work.
Suppose We were to ask this question

do not state that it Was SOL whether tn
editor Of the Minneapolis Tribune va

, pounds of salt pork from . neighbor

! whether he did not pay four times th
: price Of the pork to escape punishment!
