they brought the buoyaney and piquancy Oh

For years he has been the champion, and the
ease with which he can now put his right lower

The silver bill as amended by the
senate, proposes to make the unit of
value in money in the United States a
dollar, coined from either four hundred
and twelve and one-half grains of stand
ard silver or twenty y-fve and eight
tenths grains of gold. The coinage of
each shall be free, that is that every
owner of silver may bring his bullion
to the mints and have it coined into
money without charge and dollar in
silver shall be equally valuable with a
dollar in gold as legal tender. At
present an ounce of gold is figured as
being worth twenty Of silver. The pro-
posed bill changes this and makes six
teen ounces of the latter equivalent to
one of the 1ormer. This gives to silver
an undue advantage over gold, in not
only placing its value above its connpa-
.rative worth, but iu allowing Of un-
limited and free coinage as well. The
silver men under such an act will be
permitted to literally flood the country
with the products Of their mines, and
what will be the result? Well, if the
president or the House doesn't inter-
ferc with a timely veto, the country
may be able to answer the question IN
q few years from an experience that

The existence of a farmers party is
as little justified as the existence of a
party of street sweepers. AS a farm
er's party distinctively it must fall. It
has no place in the political life Of the
state or nation, and it is not unnatural
that the other elements of society
should, as they certainly will, strenu-
ously object to having the politics Of the
state controlled by those Of any one oc-
cupation whatever. If controlled by one
occupation, why not by another. ST.
PAUL DISPATCH.
Bishop McGoreick of Duluth is being
roundlY scored by the newspapers for
a recent attack on the public schools.
The bishop has enjoyed the reputation
hitherto of being one of the most liberal
minded of the Catholic clergy in the
Northwest, and it is sincerely to he re-
gretted that he should have said any
thing tending to the conviction that he
is hostile to the system of popular edu.
cation upon which the American peo-
pie have so firmly set their affections.

Henry Paul, of Gibbon, attempted
suicide at that place recently by plac-

after returning to consciousness was
asked the cause Of his desperate act.
He gave no satisfaction, stating that it
was nobody's business. He was

j. T. Williams, one of Mankato's
leading citizens, has been visiting at
Washington the past few months and
has made a close watch of the trend OF
men and affairs. Here are a few good
words that he has to say for Mr.. Lind:
There is no congressman in the present
house of representatives from any state
in the Union whose conscientious integ-
rity, ability and devotion to what he
believes to be for the best interests of
his constituents command more influ-
ence with his fellow members, speaker
of the house or heads of the depart
ments thar Mr.. Lind. His associates
in the house concede to him more than
ordinary ability, ,unquestioned integrity,
and do not hesitate to declare him the
ablest representative the Second District
has ever sent to Congress. Mr.. Lind
may err on the silver question, but not
Intentionally or dishonesty.

Some time ago Representative Hall
introduced bill for the relief of the
Minnesota mounted rangers. The bill
is now pending before the military
committee, but evidence is wanted that
inducements were offered to get these
men to enter the service. Mr. Hall is
of the opinion that printed circulars
or hand bills were circulated, stating
that all, whoe nlisted to protect the state
against Indians, would be granted
bounty. If any of these circulars are
in existence, Mr.. Hall would like to
present them to the committee. There
are many mounted rangers in Minnesota
who would be benefited by the passage
of the bill.

met with 80 much opposition from rank
partisOns, who were determined that the

had 10 adjourn,
But the opposition we met with at

unlfying us, Delegates who went there
TO oppose the convention and saw the
old political tricksters Of the county try
ing to cause confusion, urged on by bank

back Of the hall, went to work with the
determination that the object Of the con
vention should not be defeated.
