The National Economist quotes
the following, and credits to the La
bette County Statesman (Oswego,
Kans.)
The one question of supreme Importance
above every other question before the Amer
lean people to-day is that relating to the
volume Of tho circulating medium. Many
Of the ills Of which the people complain and
for which remedies are demanded would
adjust themselves, IL this one great question
was satisfactorily settled, and this one great
necessity Of the people--a sufficiency of mo-
ney--was supplied.
We have a faint recollection Of
having dug out that nugget some
time ago, and il the Statesman has
stolen it from the ADVOCATE and failed
to give the proper credit we demand
satisfaction or blood.

DISTRICT COURT BRIEFS.

An answer in the case of Thomas
Mackellar, of New York, against the
Anchor Manufacturing Company, G. E.
Cottrell & Co., and S. A. Booth. his
| assignee, was filed in the district court
yesterday. The answer denies that
there was any conspiracy between Colt
rell and the Anchor Manufacturing
company. 1t also states that COttreli u
Co. have claims against them for.sl00, 900
and there is only $4,000 of assets to
| meet them with.
The complaint in real estate case in
which fraud is alleged was begun yes
terday afternoon at the district court.
The plaintiff is Bright B. Fixen and the
defendant John d. Blake, claiming
$4,000.
Fixen Is resident of Albert Lea, and
says that in 1887 he had valuable house
hold and Office furniture in MinneapO-
this in the hands of Edgar A. TWitchell.
a real estate agent, to trade for him for
real estate.
Another real estate man by the name
of Blake bribed Twitchell into trading
the furniture for lots in Summit Park
worth 800 less than their real value,
which he represented to be So, 900.

TIN PLATE DUNNELL.

The Caledonia Argus of this week
rips Mr.. DUNNELL up the back on his
tin plate record. 1t was the fashion with
supported the MCKINLEY bill to provide
saving clauses whereby they hope to es-
cape full responsibility for the iniqui-
tous measure. A series of amendments
were offered during the discussion of
the bill in the house, and none Of them
adopted. 1t was not intended they
should be, for the amendments were
only designed by the congressman who
offered them for home use. When there
was some local industry likely to be in
jured by the MCKINLEY bill, the repre-
sentative from that particular district
would offer an amendment proposing
reduction OF change to suit the particU-
lar interests of his constituents. OF
course it was understood by the Re-
publicans that the amendments would
all he voted down. and that the bill
should pass just as Maj. MCKINLEY had
arranged it.
When the section relating to the tax
on tin plate was reached it occurred to
Mr.. DUNNELL that this would be his
chance to make a record for. home use.
There are several canning factories in
the First district which will be seriously
crippled by the increased tax on tin
plate, and every farmer and mechanic
in the district who has to buy tin
spoon or tin cup will be forced to pay
double price for the article. With an
atfectation of sincerity that was in re-
ality only pure hypocrisy, Mr.. Dun
NELL proposed an amendment reduc-
ing the tax on tin plate to one cent, and
made neat little speech in support of
his amendment. But, so far as the Con-
gressional Record shows, that was the
end of his proposition. If there was
even vote Oh it, there is no record of
the fact. But there is record of an
other vote, which convicts Mr.. DUN
NELL of duplicity in this matter.
AS the discussion on the tin plate Sec
ton progressed a number of amend
ments were offered; and finally, as
substitute for all these varying propo-
Sitions, Maj. MCKINLEY proposed a
section changing the phraseology of
the original section, but embody-
ing his original proposition to fix
the tax on tin plate at 90 cents
pound and 35 per cent additional. The
MCKINLEY substitute was the only test
of the relative strength of the advo-
Gates of high tax and low tax on tin
plate. Rele was Mr.. DUNNELL's oppor-
tunity to protect the interests of his
First district constituents. According
to the Congressional Record, the vote on
the MCKINLEY substitute was $50 ayes
to 149 nays, just one majority for the
high tax Oh tin plate. Mirabile dictu!
the name of MARK Fl. DUNNELL is re-
corded in the affirmative. If he had
voted as he talked, he would have de-
feated the tin plate infamy.
This is the most glazing exhibition of
insincerity and of betrayal of repre-
sentative trust that has been brought to
public attention for some time. MIR.
DUNNELL not only voted squarely
against the interests Of his constituents,
but he voted against his speech and
against his own amendment. MIR. Dun
NELL will have to answer to the people
of the First district for his outrageous
conduct in this matter.

WHO ARE RESPONSIBILITY

Two negroes were hung in Virginia
last week as a result of political events,
and yet the Republican papers have not
talked about Southern outrages or polit-
zeal murders in the case. There is sug-
gestion and illustration in the incident.
When the reckless demagogue Ma
HONE made his campaign, his chief aim
was to fire the hearts of the emotional
and unbalanced colored people in order
to solidify their votes. He succeeded
SO we'll in this instance with his crowd
of negro men and women that in the de-
lirium he had excited they set fire to the
town, burning twenty-siX dwellings and
stores, and running a number of people.
Two of the fire kindlers have just been
hanged. Those expert in such things
can perhaps separate their moral status
from that of MALONE and the reckless
partisans who incite the evil qualities
of the blacks to overt activity to sub
serve their selfish schemes. The force
bill is designed to encourage this state
of things in the black districts.

ADAKoTA BOLTER.

The Republican paper at the home OF
JOHNSON, the nominee of the Republic
cans for congress in North Dakota,
persists in its refusal to support him.
1t regards him as a demagogue, light
weight and wobbler i'll politics. 1t has
perhaps overlooked or discredits his
statement at Grand Forks: ''North
Dakota is entitled to its ablest citizen
in congress. am the man." 1t pro-
nounces him ''the most supremacy ego
tistic man in the country. and the most
selfish" 1t has had opportunities for
close and protracted observation. and
should be able to draw faithful por-
trait. In its judgment, he will serve
any cause that promises rewards. AS
evidence of this is cited his attitude in
the lottery matter. He claimed to be
the GOLIATH that welded the club to
its hurt, but became the candidate of
the men who were working the lottery
deal. The paper also is disguised at
JoHNsoN's riding the Norwegian neck.
Its words are: by posing as the can
date of foreign nationality, as has Mr..
JOHNSON in this campaign, he becomes
dangerous factor in American politics,
and the duty which every good Ameri-
can citizen owes to himself and to the
nation becomes paramount to any duty
which he owes to his party"

The GLOBE acknowledges receipt of
lengthy letter from John NJ. Shaw, f.

failure to secure Detective Mason's
presence in court and the continuance
of the case from time to time. All of
this information, however, has been
given in the GLOBE from day to day
without colOaing OF bias. The only new
thing in the letter is decision by JUS

ALLIANCES OPPOSED,

The Alliances may not invariably adj
vocate judicious measures, or hit the
eyes that need bruising, but they are
having a good effect in counteracting
the efforts of class of politicians that
would revive sectional animositieS to
promote partisan schemes. A commu-
nifty of feeling has sprung up between
the farmers of the states North and
South. This is being shown in the COM
mon opposition to measures like the
force bill. The antagonism of the farm
ers Oh the other side of the faded sec
tional line is shared by their co-workers
in the Western states on this side. A
spirit of unity and patriotism is found
in the declarations of the Alliances that
could not have had place when the sec
tionalists and fomentorS of strife were
swaying the prevalent thought. The
appeals to old prejudices have lost their
power. The country has made a long
reach toward complete harmony in the
last few years. and the architects of
force bills will find unlooked-for obsta-
cles in their path.

KEEP IT DOWN.

There is dispG sition not confined to
either party to regard the act Of the sem
ate in pushing the force bill over to the
December session as virtual abandon
ment of the measure by those instru-
mental in deferring it. The Republican
conventions being held almost invaria-
bly, put the bill in their platforms, and
the machine organs generally insist that
it is intensely alive and will be passed
at the December session if all other leg
islation fails. 1t was put over to the
next session for the reason that the tar
iff bill could not otherwise be passed,
and without its passage the manufacture
ers and others protected would not ''give
down." as the phrase familiar to the
dairy interest is. In some sections, es-
pecially those that have business
ramifcations extending into the
South, the bill is unpopular, and
will damage the party if made an
issue. This is the case particularly in
the great trade centers. In Pennsyl-
vania it would be troublesome, especial
ly if it is were given preference to the
tariff bill. Whether it shall be passed

THOSE BRICK CONTRACTS.
How Voyt, Benson & johnson Sc
cured Large Contracts.

How Voyt, Benson & johnson Sc
cured Large Contracts.
The Republican press of the city has
brought to light some contract matters
which put Aid. Vogt and President
Johnson in rather bad light. The two
are members of the firm of VOyt, Ben
son & Johnson, brick manufacturers,
with yards at the river and Forty ninth
avenue north. 1t seems that in direct
violation of section 25. chapter 3, of the
city charter, these gentlemen secured
large contracts for sewer brick at diff
ferent times. The first contract repre-
scented $4,000, and the second 100000
brick at $11 per thousand. 1t
is claimed that at about that time
Aid. johnson was elected president
of the council, and Aid. Vogt received
his appointment as chairman of the
committee on sewers. Then the sewer
committee recommended the purchase
of 100000 brick at SS.70 per thousand.
This contract, made Oct. l, 1889, was
corralled by the firm, and s43,500 con-
tract secured. Voyt claims that he had
anticipated trouble from the contracts,
and tried not to have johnson put them
in. He claims that there was no under
StdHuJUS Will ItSluCllt COULSOu W
have him made chairman of the sewer
committee. HIS explanation in regard
to the contracts being let in Johnson's
name, instead of the firms, are as fol-
lows:
'My partner, Benson, manages the
Coon Creek yard, and it has always
been JohnSon'S custom, and Benson's,
to take contracts individually among
our friends. johnson was determined
to put in bid for the sewer brick, but
l told him did not want him to do it,
because it would give me trouble
some day by putting me in a
wrong light, but he insisted on it."
He claims that the committee knew
nothing of his interest in the contract,
and treated the bid the same as any
other. He was reminded that his firm
had been awarded contract last year
at 60 cents thousand more than the
bill for Chambers machine brick, but
explained that by saying that the brick
in question had been condemned by the
inspector as not fit for the work. On
the whole Vogt's explanation was rather
vague, and does not bring him from
under the cloud. He seemed to want to
give the blame all to Mr.. johnson.
St. Paul daily globe. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn.) 1884-1896, 1890-08-30


at the next session or not depends very
largely upon the character of the voting
in November. If the Republicans should
retain their strength in the house, this
would be taken as an Endorsement of
the measure, and its passage would be
certain. There is no opposition among
Republicans in the senate that would
stand in face of the pressure of the eau
Gus with an alleged popular demand.
QUAY has declared for the bill, and it is
doubtful if a single Republican senator
would vote against it. Its fate will be
pretty we'll settled by the people in No
vember. A general rout of the Repub-
licans would prevent its being revived.
If Democrats think it is dead, they
should keep their heels On it for fear Of
a resurrection.
