BEFORE the election it was perhaps
the most available expedient for the
protection organs to deny that there
was any rise in the prices of goods that
enter into the ordinary consumption.
They asserted. too. that there would be
none except in the Democratic imagina-
ton. They now try to maintain their
consistency by continuing that sort of
gabbie. and asserting that Democratic
papers have dropped the talk. Still,
those who buy find the higher prices.

The organization of the lower house
of the next legislature is troubling the
Republican politicians greatly lust at
present, and every effort is being made
to pull the Alliance men into line for a
Republican. Yesterday Hon. F. E.
Searle, of st. Cloud. spent the day i'm
the lobby of the Merchants looking
over the field and comparing notes with
such prominent members of the next
house as Hon. J. NJ. Diment. of Owa-
tonna; Hon. Allen j. Greer, of Lake
City, and W. f. Cross, of Red Wing.
These were reinforced by ey Repre-
sentatives Alya Eastman, of Anoka: C.
IL. Brush, of Wilkin county, and-ex-
Speaker G. Ii. Graves, of Duluth, as
we'll as ex-senator c. B. Buchanan. of
Morrison. and Alton Crosby, of Lu

not have very much to say about the
organization of the house this winter
he continued. Had things come out
differently it was my tention to make
an effort for the honor and do not know
but shall now as it is"
Hon. Allen j. Greer, of Wabasha
county, hasn't much hope of the Repub-
lican members being able to organize
the house. According to his figures.
forty-one Republicans and forty-three
Democrats have been elected to the
house. This leaves thirty Alliance men,
ali equal number of whom. Mr.. Greer
AYERS, has heretofore acted with each of
the old parties. Assuming Mr.. Greer's
figures to be correct, and they are far
too favorable to the Republicans, /
breakup of the Alliance vote would
make the house stand: Democrats, SIS:
Republicans, Sc.
But there will be no breaking-up of
the Alliance members. They will stick
together and help the Democrats inau-
gurate those reforms the people are eX-
pecting this winter. There is no Alli-
ance man so blind that he cannot see
that it would be the death-knell of the
Alliance cause were they to ioin i'm the

Why Did Willard Fail to
Save His Brokers From
Ruin?

New York World Nov. IA
Brokers and spectators were asking
each other yesterday whether Henry
Willard had fallen again. Mf. Willard
has been the great central figure of the
market, and upon him has depended
the course of values. His financial
backing has been very strong since he
resumed control of the Northern Pa
cific railroad and its allied properties.
1t has been difficult to understand why
he has not come TO the rescue of his
stocks and his brokers in the great de-
preston.
1t has been bluntly stated that his
new fortune has been wiped out by the
recent decline, but whether that is so
or not cannot be positively ascertained.
His private secretary yesterday denied
that Mr.. Willard was embarrassed, and
gave out this statement:
~
"Mr. Willard, after the loss of his son
last summer, decided to 20 to Europe
with his family for two years. Every
thing connected with the properties
known as the Willard securities was in
hrSt-claSS condition, so far as their earn
ings and dividends were concerned. and
that condition is not changed to-day.
SO far from rigging the market. ne
was himself the largest Individual holder
Of them. and he continues to be SO.
Take Edison General Electric COMPANY,
for example. When that stock was in
the neighDorhood of 126 he sold not a
single share, nor has he sold any since.
Look at the official sales, and YOU will
find that nobody has sold any consider
able amount. The total sales from the
organization Of the company to the
present time are mere bagatelle. The
company pays per cent dividends, and
earns more than that, but it is not much
traded in, and is little known, and, con-
sequently, when some belated holder is
forced to sell, the price is Knocked down
to ridicuIously low figure. Any i'm
putatiOns against Mr.. Wizards charac-
ter i'll connection with this crisis are as
groundless as those against his solyency.
He has neither failed. nor has he been

failure. Both Decker. Howell & Co.
and their assignee have publicly stated
this fact, and it will appear more dis
tinctly when their affairs are linuidated

The Story Of Two Novels.


Two friends of mine spent each of them
the best part of the year 1888 in writing
and revising novel apiece. Both stories
were published by leading houses dur

well advertised, skillfully handled. and
both novels are, according to the popular
acceptance of the term, successful-that
Is, they have been widely written about.
Photographed in the press from one end of
the country to another, English editions
have been printed OF each, and to every
literary person the names of both novels
and authors are thoroughly familiar. Now,
what have the authors received in hard
cash for their years work. will tell YOU
exactly: OF one, 100 copies were sold; no
royalty was paid on the first thousand to
cover manufacture, ETC., and upon the re-

and the book has stopped selling. The
other author was trifie more fortunate
In that his novel reached sale of 2. 900, all
but five copies. Like the first he received
10 per cent. royalty only after the first
thousand copies. Unfortunately, he bought
so many copies of his books for friends
