The anti-monopolist. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn.) 1874-1878, 1877-12-13

acts are apparent allover the country,
to prevent the honest vote from being
shown to the public at large.
Such striking, kissing, snOrting,
boiling and fermenting Of the repub
lican and democratic ticket was never
before witnessed in this country.
Five members were elected for the
state legislature, every one a green
back man.
Our convention, the first one held
in this county, was held two weeks
before our county election. The
greenback ticket swooped down on
them. Unexpectedly, and burst their
scheming ranks in every conceivable
shape.
One ward in this city polled 231
votes. the largest vote it ever polled,
with only three straight democratic
tickets. two straight republican tick
cts. and twelve straight greenback
tickets.
This is about the average all over
the county.
We had great trouble in getting
ANYTHING printed here for the green
back cause, so great was the strain
with the capitalists to suppress the
cause Of the people at large.
We have a mechanic here who can
build a press and set the type at his
own expense.
He says that he will circulate at
his own expense, at least twenty
thousand circulars in this state.
We intend to put one i'll every
house in the state.
This circular will contain the report
and speech of Congressman Ewing,
chairman of the committee on curren'
CIV and banking, on the repeal OF the
resumption act, together with the
names and address of every greenback
journal in the United States.
