owners interest remains intact, because
he has the command of the necessaries
of life, and his products must be had at
any price.
The interests of the farmer, except so
far as they are affected by the variations
of the seasons or other natural causes,
depend on himself alone. If he be in
dustrious and economical, he need ask
no favors Of any class of the community,
nor of the Government. All the farmer
need ask is a clear field and no favor.
They are interested only in the free and,
consequently, the cheap protection Of all
Commodities; theirs can never be pro-
duced too fast, unless they 60 too far
from civilization, and then there is no
fear Of starvation; they can live on their
products and wait till population or the
necessary conveyances to market over
take them. This is the true position
ofthe agricultural interests; protection
to manufacturers can by no means ben
eft them, but it will, and may, injure
them if they are exporters ofproduce, as
the cost Of the tax, so far as it prevents
importation, must be paid for out Of the
price Of the exports. It is, therefore,
the interest of the farmer to support
free trade, as he has nothing to gain
but something to lose by protection.
Hoping that the movement of the
Changers may always be carried out up
on just and judicious principles,
I remain, sir,
A WELL W1sHER AND FREE TRADER.

the consequence Of manoeuvers of lead
ing democratic wire-pullers, who desire
to use your organization to weaken the
republican party and secure the success
Of their own candidates in the coming
election. How do you know that l am
not right? And the very fact that you
condemn me, in your ignorance, is proof
positively that you are insincere in pro-
Tossing devotion to the reform principles,
and that you seek only your persona
political advancement.
As further confirmation that you are
influenced by personal and unworthy
considerations, it is only necessary to
turn to your records,-to inquire who
you are. I do not care to call names,
but you know that know you, and that
I know that every one of you, without a
single exception, are chronic o86ce-seek-
ers, and that you left the parties you
formerly acted with either because they
would not give you nominations or could
not elect you to Office. That you came
into the new party solely with a view to
using it to secure your elections to
Office, and that you have been prompted,
in giving direction to its policy by that
consideration and that alone. And
that you have been ready, at any time,
to leave it and attach yourselves to
either of the old parties, had the leaders
Of the these been willing to assure you
Of the contamination of your wishes.
The public know these things of you
as we'll as I do, and your loud protesta-
tions Of reform are, therefore, only
greeted with ridicule, and the reform
party movement has become by-word
and reproach because Of your con-
duct in connection with it. Instead Of
your leading it to success, even thong
convinced Of the truth of it's sentiments,
the people will never rally around its
standards so long as they are upheld by
such creatures as yourselves. You have
doomed it to defeat and disgrace.
AS for myself, I am still an antimo-
nopolist, and intend to continue to be
the earnest advocate Of antimonopoly
principles, without fear of denunciation
or expectation of reward. lam the SER
want Of no party, and intend to remain
free as I was born, untrammeled by
conditions imposed by those who seek to
live by Office holding. I claim to be,
however, reasonable man, and when.
ever I see an opportunity to accomplish
good to the community I propose to en-
brace it, not forgetting that myself and
family are parts of the community.
lam not frightened BY your threats,
nor worried by your falsedoods, but if
you persist in your present course OF
conduct toward me, and thus continue
to work injury to the principles of anti
monopoly, 1 shall regard it as my du-
! ty to give the public your respective his
tories, and thus disable you from work
| ing further harm to cause that is dear
to me. Yours truly,

A Personal Explanation.

u tftt Set/ -COHStLtNttU GtuucTS " WC
Independent moo .anent IN minnesota:
GENTLEMEN:-1n addressing the fol-
lowing communication to you, I want
it clearly understood that there are
those amongst you whom esteem high
ly, and believe to be sincerely devoted
to the cause you advocate, and it lis not
to such that refer in what shall follow.
But you all know that there are, also,
of your number large proportion who
have made themselves conspicuous before
the public, and whose identification
with the Independent party has worked
only injury to the cause. These have
recently seen fit to cr;ticise my conduct
very unjust!y, and circulate numerous
falsehoods concerning me, calculated to
injure my business and influence.
Some have even proceeded to the extent
Of writing me threatening and imper-
tinent letters and publishing abusive par
agraphs about me in such papers as
will admit their productions, always,
however, conceallng their identity under
the cowardly refuge Of anonymous sig
natures.
Personally I care very little for such
attacks, but because Of the position I
have occupied and continue to occupy
in relation to anti-monoply principles,
these falsehoods have, also, the effect of
retarding the general acceptance and
adoption by the public of those pri:ci-
Plies. Hence, deem it my duty to re-
ply to them.
1t is hardly necessary for me to re-
mind you that was formerly demo-
crat, although have not voted with
that party, as member of and in full
sympathy with the organization, since
1860, for the reason that did not ap-
prove Of its policy and candidates. Since
July, 1870, have been al anti-monop-
olist, and nothing else. During the
canvass OF that year l pledged N.Y.
self publicly, as the people Of Olmsted
county will remember, that I would
never be instrumental in attempting to
lead anti-monopolists into tho demo-
cratic camp, nor willingly agree to a
coalition with the latter party.
How we'll have kept that pledge,
you all know. True, l have submitted
to such coalitions, but 10 no instance
failing to protest against it; and the
results have invariably proved that my
judgment was'right, and that such coa-
litions were unfortunate to the reform
movement. Such coalitions were made,
however, and continued to be made un-
til last year, when the movement was
virtually abandoned, and the elements
composing it were absorbed in the old
parties. I then earnestly protested
against it, and declared that l would no
longer submit to he betrayed, to suit the
! convenience Of selfish aspirants for
oeice.'
AS the results since 1870 have un-
iformiy proved that the policy dvised
was the proper one to pursue, and as
the opposite policy has as uniformly
resulted unfortunately, is it unreasona.
bic for me now to maintain that my
Judgment is more likely to be correct
than yours? I contend that your has
ty action in the approaching campaign
Is ill-advised, and that it will retard
rather than accelerate the adoption 70,
and by this government Of the political
principles we advocate. And I assert
further, that this premature action i.

letting daylight through hats; yet
for these things they were never
scolded. "Sweet, thee must look
out for the nails next time;' or "Dcar,
take little more time in undoing
thy buttons" was the extent of re-
proof. "Thee is mothers comfort

formed the slightest service for her.
These boys were perfect chevaliers
toward their mother. They could
enter into pillow, fights at boarding
school without compunction, but her
pillows were always respected, and
her carpets, too, for they seldom for
got that their mother loved neatness,
and the door mat was to them sa-
cred institution, from the very fact
that it was never Grossly insisted up
on.
Suppose society, then, should choose
for its representative, instead of Miss

the appreciation that his nature

constantly snubbed, his rights to

ner which we do not manifest toward
them? Nothing will win a boys

treatment. In this respect, if in no
other, the boy is father of the man.
