badness often, though not always,

store the hair where the follicles are
destroyed, or the glands atrophied

learn that they contemplate extending
their trip further into the interior with
the purpose Of examining the country

prospects for supporting one or more
narrow guasc railroads leading from the
interior to Snake river, and that they
will especially examine the Palouse

in pursuance of q plan contemplated in
forming their combination with DR.
Baker and merging his road with that
company. They express themselves
very desirious that the people should
petition Congress to largely increase the
appropriation for the Improvement Of

Indian Plans.

WALLA WALLA, June Is, 1878.
The Oregonian says that the plan Of
the Bannocks under Buffalo Horn is to
concentrate force at Juniper mountain,
enlist the piutes and then proceed north
to Salmon river. 1t also says that Egan
a Piu.e chief is on the war path with
force of 40e. This may all be bluff,
but it will be important for our people
north to be on the alert aud ready to
check the first movement in the ap-
proach Of Salmon river. Jake Shultz
aud VIM. Igo are here, in doubtwhe,her
to proceed to Owyhee Or return to Nez
Perez aud Idaho counties. The letter
lof Anderson in the lddhoan assumes
that the main portion OF Bannocks have
returned to tn, reservation and that in
the region of the lava beds all is safe
aad quiet. 1t is difficult to arrive at
just prediction Of what the plans of the
Indians are. But we need to be con.
stantly on the watch. Indian plans arc
not revealed, and if they are, they are
subject to change without announcing
said change to their enemies. Hence
their plans one day may be one thing

This is very true. The country of

And if none buy food what profit will

The system Of government that i'm.
poverishes the cities must eventually
impoverish the country. We regard
the immense rush Of people to the
land as fraught with danger.
The remedy is to cease to govern
the nation in the interest of accumu-
lated capital and to begin to govern
it in the interest of the producers.

Here are some very just comments
of the Worthington Journal called
forth by the recent School Book
Bribery case;
The merits of measure never en-.
ter into the consideration Of these po-
litical cormorants, the only contin.
gency being the amount of money that
can be turned out by interested par
ties to secure its passage. We do not
charge that the entire Legislature
can he influenced by such foul means,
but that sufficient number of un.
scrupuious demagogues have worked
their way into that boay to influence
legislation upon important measures
is plainly apparent.
The Republican party of Minneso-
tn has accumulated load of trash
that Ii cannot carry, and il is now
time TO stop and unload, for this win
ter's work at st. Paul has demonstra-
ted the unpleasant fact that there are
q number of striped suits at Saltwater
waiting to he filled from the Repub-
lican ranks.
This is putting 1t none too strongly.
The men who, with the Rings money
n their pockets, turned like wolves
upon Brandt to tear him to pieces, for
exposing the corrupt practices of the
Ring, should never be forgotten OF
forgiven by an outraged constituen,
cy. 1t was the most horrible and
shameful spectacle ever seen since
Minnesota became state.
The anti-monopolist. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn.) 1874-1878, 1878-03-07

The indianapolis 'San objects "
he Silver reconciliation act. III
says:
The first section of this bill az pass
4 contains these words.
(Which coins, together with all
silver dollars heretofore coined by the
United States, of like weight and
ineness. shall be legal tender at
their nominal value for all debts and
dues. public and private e.rcept uhen
other.giSe expressly sttputated Ia the
contract. "
The italicized words are the fatal
ones. They permit the banker to in
sert the gold clause in the note and
hen the silver dollars under this act
will not pay such note. This excep-
. don amounts to saying, the silver dol
lars are Il legal tender for all debts
where the creditor agrees to take
chem, thus putting tho silver dollar
IN the same basis as potatoes.
To say that this bill restores the
silver dollar is to utter villainous
falsehood. This exception wholly
deprives it Of its legal tender quality
md RENTS it to the plane of Il commo-
iity. 1t makes it depend on the con-
tract whether it is legal tender or not.
A contract for payment in 100 bushels
of corn is satisfied by the tender OF 100
0psheis of corn at the time and place
d payment, without any statutory
pfovision upon the subject. This ex-
tAption leaves the silver dollar in that
position in legal effect. 1t leavss it
as to its legal tender power wholly
subject to the contract.

The Chicago Tribune replies to a
fallacy uttered by Senator Window as
follows:
Senator Window of Minnesota
made good speech in favor of the
silver dollar equal to gold, and indi-
Gated without declaring positively
that he would vote for no other. He
showed that his constituents would
have to sell their wheat at the gold
price fixed in Liverpool, but would be
paid in silver. and the difference will
go into the handsof speculators.
The above extract from his remark
shows the sort of mental fog which
environed him and prevented him
from seeing the truth except as
through q glass darkly. A more acute
intellect would not have fallen into
the mdicrous error of supposing that
his wheat-growing constituents would
lose by being paid in silver. Admit
for the sake of Illustration. the gold
bug boSh about "a el-eent silver dol
lar" and does he not see that it would
work precisely as when the greenback
were worth 30 cents in gold--say
eighteen months agoi Greenbacks
were legaltenders equally with gold
except for duties. Was not the Min
nesota farmer paid Sill in Green
backs for every 81 In gold his wheat
sold fori He received the gold
value in greenbacks for his grain.
Whatever the premium was, he got it.
At present, when greenbacks are at a
discount Of but per cent. he only
gets per cent. more in paper than he
would If paid in gold.
Now, il silver shall remain after
being remonetized at 0I per cent. of
gold as the Jay Gould Tribune kuaves
and Journal idiots insist, then bushel
of Minnesota wheat worth 81. in
gold viii necessarily sell fer 81. 10 in
silver or Si.l0 in greenhacks. as the
latter and silver will he exactly of
equal value. provided the resumption
act is not repealed. And If it be
repealed, the greenhacks may fall
below the value OF silver. and in that
| case the farmer will take his pay ex-
clusiveiy in paper money. If silver
shall rise 70 os in gold, after being re-
stored 90 the legal currency Of the
country, las many goldites are willing
TO admit then for every gold dollar
the wheat is worth the Minnesota
farmer viii receive $l.05 IA in silver.
In what way. then. will this s.differ-
ence between the value OF silver and
gold go into the hands Of the specula-
rorst"
And ~ the farmer can pay his debts
