OF THE
Independent Party
OF Minnesota.

sustained by thousands OF votes, Is
with organizations in several coun- 3
ties and perfected state organic +
alton. It will enter the field next
year prepared to make still more
vigorous canvass for success; COM
mittees and clubs will be organized
in every county, and it will not
give up the contest until it has
carried the state or forced the
dominant party, whichever party
thst may be, to adopt its prlncl-
pies.
The independents need in such
battle a
STATE ORGAN,
to which they can look for defence,
for facts and arguments.
The ANT1-MoNoPoL1sT proposes
) to constitute such an organ.
PRINCIPLES.
It will be devoted to the estab-
! lishment Of the following princi-
J pies:
l. That no peace can come to a
distracted and embittered country
!, through either Of the old party
c organizations; -they represent
y the passions and resentments Of
: sections and the wrath and hates
$ of terrible civil war.
g II. That the success of new
party upon new issues would as
. . suage the evil passions Of the coun-
- try; divide up the popular vote up
IS on a new basis; destroy the race
politics of the south, and assure
s. the nation peace and repose.
T. III. That the powers Of gov
o. eminent should not be used to en-
as rich the few land impoverish the
he many, but to arrest the aggres-
u u sions and cunning Of the few. In
- = other words ssto take care Of the
in poor, because the rich can take
Sc care of themselves.
". To this end policy Of fl

v. That it is not SO necessar.
- to resume specie-payments for tn
benefit Of the capitalist, as it is t.
resume prosperity for the benefi
Of the impoverished and sufferin
: multitude.
the vi. That the demonstration 9
silver was intended to increase tn
tier value of money at the expense {
for labor, and to enrich the credito
class at the expense of the debto
.i un class; it is reversion to barbarisl
and can only produce the most DE-
vas structive consequences.
ship VII. That all the paper curre1
cy required by the people shoul
pIa teed be issued directly by the gener'
government, without cost to tt
,ntv people, beyond the cost Of printin
heo- it; and that we are opposed
