combination of political forces to
steal the profit from producers OF the
soil, in which plutocracy stands by
the politician with his enormous
wealth.
Such things could not have existed
in 1850! The people would have
risen in rebellion-and the Lord only
knows what will occur now. Ii the
wrongs are not remedied there will
arise new dangers in the near future
We are drifting drifting with won
derful rapidity-intO a whirlpool
where human passions, and loath-
some selfishness, and shameless
greed, rise as a triumvivate of de
structive power. Under such tri-
une force of wrong and iniquity the
government of the "people, for the
people" cannot exist an hour.

equivalent to adding 1856 to each
mile. Still our estimate is but $7.135
to q mile-and for office furniture
and sidetracks we will allow $35, 500.
to bring the estimate up to ST.
500 per mile.
Now you can't make q railroad
plutocrat, or his hireling, recognize q
truth unless you hit him hard enough
to hurt him. So, not desiring to
wound the delicate sensibilities, but
to gently urge the truth, we observe
as general rule that they are a. lot Of
scurvy liars-regular- Mary-had-a-lit-
tle-lamb liars. Every railroad engi-
neer in the world (civil) knows from
the levels of the Minnesota railways
that NOT ONE OF THEM cost 81, 500 to
the mile including equipment.
So astonishing does this seem that
our friends of the country newspap-
ers are afraid to publishit. But why
not do SO as an extraordinary
statement and invite men around
you to pick flaws in the matter?

The necessity for relief to the

The disease is recognized. Dis
solution is at hand unless a rem

tackled with a malady. When
a mans brain is affected, his liver
out of order or his heart diseased
the boils that break out are
unnoticed.
The state of the markets on
grain and stock threaten the
heart of the grain and stock pro-
ducing interests of the west.
We see an effect. What is the
cause? We learn that a COM
mittee of the Uuited States senate
is insulted and treated with con-
tempt by those engaged in deal
ing in stock.

but they cannot buy public sentiment. Don't tie

Myers supplemented this public exordium by
private talk in which he said: Il have been In
jail while Others have been living in palaces and
am going to reverse that" Myers also tele-
graphed his resignation:
JOHN r. MCLEAN, Washingtou-I leave the
Enquirer Saturday; sooner you wish. Enough
is enough.
ALLEN O. MYERS.
Asked for his reasons for this insingular move.
he said, II am q newspaper man and decent
man. won't associate with or be forced to be
in such a gang. 1 am tired of the whole business.
and willing to fet others bear the burden OF
odium."
The affair has produced sensation. but what
effect it may have ON the auction OF the Senator
ship remains to be seen.

1t looks as though the effort to
start a Irvine factory at Willmar
would be a success. It is to have a
capital of $25, 600, and use flax fibre.
A movement of this kind would cast
considerable of q shadow over that
bogus commission which made the
celebrated report regarding the
manufacture of Irvine at the State
Prison. 1t will be remembered that
the commission reported that the
State of Minnesota couldn't afford
the capital necessary-with all that
vast plant there ready for action.

cage on Age is Tellinq."


Never before, in the history OF the
world, has the world spolitics been so
stirred up. This is true in England
where the Dock Strike brought the
proud old rock-ribbed companies,
standing on the foundation of CEN
turtles, to the feet of John Burns, la
borer! 1t is true in the nation at
large, when the democratic victories
have been brought about by laboring
men dissatisfied with the party in
power. 1t is so in this State, where
not man in the State House, not
one, but is studying how to "hedge
i'm on popular movement, and
''hedge OUT of the monopoly pay
without getting out!
The tremendous sensation OF the
truth of our fierce averments for two
years past that the Elevator and
Railroad combine had been reaping
30 per cent. out OF the trans-Mississ-
ippi states, silent though it may ap-
pear, is turning and overturning.
Then Bellamy's book, Looking
Backward" which has flooded the
world with ideas new to many, and
the organization Of Nationalist Clubs
over the land, make the money-kings
tremble. The spirit of a new order
of social government is in the very
air. Why, if ten years ago, the
twenty preachers of Boston, and the
good women OF st. Paul-east and
west, north and Southland said,
"We are Christian Socialists that
word Socialist would have ruined
them. Yet today, think of it, today,
Christian Socialism and the doctrines
of Bellamy are the study of every
moving man in the world-and his
book is being translated into every
tongue. The money-king-the "pub-
lic-be-damned' autocrat has over
stepped itself! The new era which
has not even dawned yet, but which
is struggling through the clouds yet
below the horizon, is the product OF
the outrages practiced upon labor
by capital.
It is struggle for the rights OF
man.
1t is conflict in which the rights
of fate to dominate one man to
| Joy and another to poverty, misery,
blows and suffering is in question.
Let the battle come.
This is the Laborer's cry-from
the prison house of hopeless toll.
The great West. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1889-18??, 1889-11-22

The first week in December will see
the book publications, now in hand
at this Office, finished. We will then
introduce several editorial improve
ments. Thus far we have made no
use of foreign exchanges. 1t is pro-
posed to give a column or so of mat
ter to wheat, and to coal, and an
other to general trade relations
written up from anything but a
Board of Trade standpoint. Our
subscribers will please bear with us
two weeks longer.

The railroads may give the grang-
ers honest reports, as to income
but they lie unto, and cheat, each
other like the very ID! Every
pool they enter into is broken up by
one dishonest cuss carving up an
other.

Now to this estimate add 81, COOP
mile for an ordinary western equip
ment, engines, cars, ETC., etc.
We have here total of $3.50 as
the cost of building and equipping a
railroad. While this road is being
built some salaries must be paid. If
the road is one hundred miles long,
and requires a year to build Zone
hundred sub-contracts) we will al
low $40 to the mile for salaries. This
provides $1,000 for that one year.
Then there was the preliminary sur
vey. Well, that is not properly
chargeable to construction because
the Internal shysters always get the
greenhOrns who vote bonuses to pay
for that. But then put it in. Fifty
dollars a mile ($2,5OO) is a tremend-
GUS estimate.
Here we have a total expense of 81
$50 per mile. Now some civil engi-
neer will say that our figuring on a
prism of a cubic yard per lineal foot
is too small an estimate. We deny
this criticism before it is made. We
have ridden over about every mile of
the Minnesota roads. We have
walked over sections of the Manito-
ba, and from the rear end of cars
taken pencil views of HUNDRED-AfILE
stretches. The average of 400 miles
of connected Minnesota railways is
not equal to a prism of a cubic yard
of dirt moved per lineal foot. But
there are some places where cuts and
fills will count against this estimate
A cut and fill of three cubic yards per
lineal foot every fourth mile is an ex-
traOrdinary allowance. That is
