SIDEW ak QUESTION.
The Case Submitted to the Town
Commissioners.
They Meet Tonight and Will Have Two
Petitions Before Them.
A MARRIAGE EARLY THIS MORNING.
People Who Come and Go-Brief Brevi-
ties of Interest to All Readers
of The Globe.

The town commissioners meet to- night,
and the merchants of Durham would
thank them if they would repeal the ordi-
nance prohibiting tradesmen from using
any part Of their sidewalks upon which
to display goods. THE GLOBE, acting
upon the solicitation of several of Dur
hams best merchants, opened vote on
the question. This was a right which we
enjoyed and which the merchants appre-
ciated. THE GLOBE simply said that in
no city in the civilized world was such q
Blue law enforced. 1t did not assume a
dictatorial position. Personally, The
GLOBE cared nothing for it. 1t is in
terested in the upbuilding of the town,
and it knows that such an embargo chokes
business. 1t may suit some of the people
here, but we are talking about new men
who will come to Durham.
No man voted against the merchants,
the list below shows how many voted for
the merchants. Some are not tax PAYERS
Many of them are. We could mention
men like Mr.. Ballard, who cast the first
ballot, and men like the Dukes who fol-
lowed closely. But the names are we'll
known in Durham
If the commissioners do not want to
grant the prayer of the petitioners, it is
their own business. This morning Chief
Of Police Woodall was circulating a pc
tition, in the shape of remOnstrance, to
anticipate THE GLOBES names, which
will go before the commissioners o-night.
Chief Woodall says that if the ordinance
is modified that he will take piece of
steel and mark off the space allowed the
merchants and arrest the first transgres-
sOr. If he does THE GLOBE will applaud
him. If the commissioners yield a right
and that right is abused, the first man
acting hog or quibbling for an addi-
tiOnal inch of space, should be arrested
and heavily fined.
THE GLOBE presents a good list of good
citizens. If the commissioners do not
think it their business to respect this
vote, then that ends the matter The

i. q. Barrett.

The candidate for Lieutenant Gov
ernor is gentleman known over the
state at large. His personal charac-
ter is above reproach, and his abili-
ties are unquestioned. His horticul-
tural and other writings have
brought him forward, and beyond
the general average, Mr.. Barrett is a
deep thinker on economic problems.
No one questions either ability or
Observation-Disclosures the farmer who
does not vote for him is simply
welded to his idols. Mr.. Barrett is
also the Prohibition nominee, and
will command a heavy vote in the
third party.

The Republican Party

Is now drawing every thread with
a cunning needle, through the gar
ments OF your political faith, to
patch up the rents made by the al
lance movement. At the head Of it's
dominant faction are two bankers,
Merriam and Scheffer-One feeding
out $4,000 OF salary to the Hodg-
son-Sprague gang; the other taking
care of Hall, etc.
At the head of the Committee is a
lawyer and ex-banker. On that same
committee is Mr.. Canning, who
fought the independent movement
most desperately and declared Mer-
riam the "best governor we ever
had"-and who is now in the Wheat
Commission business at Duluth.
The fact is, republicans, you should
stand right by this independent
movement and see it victorious-and
if you cannot win this election, be in
harness for the next.

Local Work.

Tt will be difficult to get up the en-
thusiasm for the state ticket after
the terrible blunders made by Hall,
and the criminal work Of Lathrop.
The effort to drive the GREAT WEST
and Mr.. Donnelly out OF the cam
paign was itself almost a crime
against the cause Of struggling hui
manity. But we plead with the farm
ers and laboring men to look beyond
that miserable farce Of a campaign
committee work for their ticket
on their own account. Ii the COM
mittee in it's knee-breeches expendi-
lures here at st. Paul creates dis
trust, raise money in your own coun-
ties and use it there. Presenting $40
gold watches to embezzlers, through
bankers, will not elect the ticket.
But grand effort at the polls will
aid us. Every effort has been made
by us to get into line, and every ef-
fort has been net by abuse and re-
buff. But all the same the GREAT
WEST says "get there''-and vote
the ticket and work for it. The
cause is greater than the GREAT
WEST or Hall either.

Tariff on Wheat.

Other nations have got on to our
little scheme. France is an immense
manufacturer of goods tariff-taxed
in this country. So France put on a
tariff OF 33c. per bushel on our
wheat while it taxes only 15c.
a bushel on wheat from 9th
er countries. Meantime we are pay
ing about x more for goods i'm
ported cut off from export.
Oh, thou happy-go-lucky nation OF
agricultural imbeoiles. First, let the
plutocrats own our parties. Second
let them buy controlling influence in
your own party.

The Alliance Treasury.

After Mr. Donnelly withdrew from
the Executive Committee room last
Wednesday night, there was an al
most immediate attack upon the
treasury. The GREAT WEST had put
a stopper on the Lathrop leak, but
now a straightforward lunge was
made. Although none of the other
labor organizations supposed to sus-
tain the movement, represented by
such characters as A. L. Gardner,
have ever turned out their treas
uries, the motion was put to place
all but $40 in the hands Of that free
lunch, Columbia-Association, Cam
paign Committee. All the money
that could be found from the wreck
amounted to $40. So the sucker
twenty who make Minneapolis sick
and St. Paul dizzy received 500 OF
the farmers alliance money. Eric
Olson was at the Clarendon waiting
for it, and it didn't go far among the
hungry lot. The expenses OF this
committee are something startling.
David Lister and H. V. Poore did
not vote for this gift. Those who
did are R. J. Hall, John Furlong. j.
B. Hompe, H. P. Bjorge, A. L. Strom-
berg.
We do not know how the alliances
will look at this matter-especially
when the delegates come to pay their
expenses next December.

Mr.. Grigsby's paper 'shas been one
of the ablest advocates Of free silver
in the West!" Bah!-read this, cut
directly from his paper:
"The fact is we cannot have two
standards of value for money any
more than we can have two different
sized measures, each liable to change
with the seasons, for bushel OF
wheat, a pound of sugar or a yard OF
cloth. There can be but one stan
dard and that should be unchange-
able and the same throughout the
civilized world"
What kind of a free coinage, dou-
ble-standard man is this. But the
editor of the Alliance will certainly
withdraw his charge against us.
Did we misrepresent
The great West. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1889-18??, 1890-09-19
The Alliance"

A new and able Alliance journal
started at Elbow Lake, Grant Coun-
ty, takes us to task for stating that
Mr.. Grigsby is opposed to free coin
age OF silver. And then it quotes
our remarks on one sentence, viz:
"Nationalize the banking business,
etc."
But, bless you, my dear sir, if that
had been all, we were indeed too Sc
we're on Mr.. G.. But when the cal
lance" says Mr.. G. has been square
advocate of free coinage, we quote
the following, and ask for another
opinion:
eve notice that the Farmers AL
lance platform and that the plat
forms of several Democratic state
conventions demand free silver coin
age. On this point we cannot agree
with these platforms because we be-
lieve that free coinage would result
disastrously to the country, and
would have a very bad effect on our
monetary question.
Now where man endorses a
statement that ''free coinage would
result disastrously, etc." he must be
a wonderful advocate thereof, and
vet the editor of the Alliance says
we deliberately misrepresent Mr..
G.iosby." Would not an apology
be in order? It says that Mr.. G. lis
an advocate of the Alliance platform
in every PARTICULAR 1t says that

secure all the accounts possible from
alliances which were not reported in
the accounts given and published in
the GREAT WEST. As alliances may
not have preserved that paper they
are urged to send all their accounts
since March LIST. They will be pre-
served in this Office until Oct. 10th,
the date of the next meeting OF the

The Next Annual Meeting.

On the both day OF December the
next Annual Alliance will be assem-
bled at st. Paul. 1t is called thus
early so as to precede the assembling
of the Legislature in January.
The Annual Meeting will have
some heavy duties to perform. OF
course the present conflict cannot go
on forever. Either the Alliance must
shake off it's banker hirelings or lose
it's most stalwart friends. This does
not apply to one or two, but to
twenty thousand farmers who are
now sore at heart. 1t will, it seems
to us, be a final struggle of the AL
lance for purity and regeneration.
We hope every alliance will be guided
by Justice and wisdom. There are
Hateful periods in the history OF all re-
forms, and this is one of them. Pray
God that the courage of every man
may stand him in good stead.
Let every alliance in the state send
delegates. Save up your money now,
that you may select your man, and
not take a delegate because he s'pays
his way"
Do not send moderate men. Send
men who are pronounced. We would
rather see a man like Brandborg,
who stands by the wreckers and
makes no "bones of it" than to see a
weak man for US whom the bankers
party agents can monkey with and
draw away. Send men for a purpose,
one way or the other-stern men
men called to act on a clear line OF
conscience. 1t is not too early now
to begin to measure your muscles for
the work before you. We ask no ia.
vors-no leanings-no sympathies
We have done right, and under God
Almighty's hand we will take judg
ment. This state is full of true men
men like Donnelly himself, not gifted
in speech perhaps, but with lior
J.. hearts and love for the true anC
good-men who work for humanity
not for salary, but for righteous
ness. Justice to the poor is thu
righteousness OF God.
, In regard to official position in TIN
alliance-this office does not want
want, official relations with the ALI
, ance. That secretarial nomination
last winter was sudden call, to pre-
7 vent division in the ranks of the radi
cal element. And although elected b.
a clear majority of four over all, W

There is no excuse, whatever may
be our dissatisfaction with ways and
committees, for going back to the old
parties. 1t is not wise. Certainly, if
a man prefers the platform of the AL
lance to either the republican or
democratic document, it is a privi-
lege to vote for a man on that plat
form. No man can stake any earnest
faith on the democratic instrument
The more we read it the more we are
amazed at it. Nor have the farmers
any confidence in the professions of
thelepublicans. Theplatform may be
better pretense; but the democrats
do not even indulge in a pretense.
So far as known Mr. Owens believes
in his platform. That dirty scoun-
drels havestolen over the slight fences
OF the Independent party and cap
tured the machinery is no reason
why we should let it go to destruc-
ton!
We are thoroughly convinced that
Hall is engaged in working out our
destruction He is a man who can
not get any political endorsement in
his own county-trying and failing
therein.
But the stern duties of patriotism
demand of us all that we rise above
these deep tricksters and stand by
the ticket.

It has Come.

The great financial stringency fore
told by the GREAT WEST fully three
weeks before the first esprit" is now
on in full force, and the bankers and
brokers throughout the entire coan-
try are thoroughly alarmed.
The secretary of the Treasury tided
the brokers over a panic three weeks
ago by giving the piratic crew mil
lions of government money-and ne
now states that he stands ready to
do so again! $25, 100000 more OF
our money has thus been poured in
to the awful gulf of bogus bonds,
which has already swallowed $l6,-
900, 100000 Sixteen billion dollars
of our wealthy.
Whv this terrible stringency,
threatening the most awful break up
the world has ever known?
This is why: The mortgages OF this
country, on real estate, amount to
over $40, OOO,O 900. 900 (ten billions Of
dollars-ten times a thousand times,
a thousand times a thousand dol
lars.) To pay this amount there are
Just one-half of one billion dollars.
Gold is the only legal tender now in
existence in this broad domain. The
new mortgages are all made out ex-
cepting silver by cop'ract. The
amount OF money stands thus:
Greenbacks. ......... 1916, 900, 900
Gold. about. ...... 100000, 900
Total. 1886, 100000
But millions OF greenbacks have
disappeared in thepast 25 years, and
millions are in Canada and Europe.
But says some one, where are the
200 millions OF bank currency? Yes,
but every dollar OF bank currency
represents debt OF it's own! 1t is on
ly issued as a debt-note to the bank.
Suppose there are 600 million dol
lars to pay off the enormous mort
gage debts-1O,OOO million in
amount. And suppose out OF this
600 million enough must come to
pay interest on 10000 million OF
bogus or watered bonds! What can
there be but a stringency and a
crash
Again we say to farmers and poor
people, keep some money about you
Jet your wife put those few dollars
in her stocking. No such vast ex-
pansion OF robber securities and false
mortgages was ever known in the
history of the world. Laws wonder
full mississippi Bubble was picay-
une in comparison, and 1t that wrecked
the financial world.
Why, we have over twenty trusts,
with fictitious capital, any one OF
which will discount the Law Bubble
So we say, save up greenbacks or
; gold. Look into the future like earn
est men. The government cannot al
ways give, give, give! Ito these cut
threats of Wall Street.
AS sure as history is to roll on, SO
surely must the mighty balloon burst
and look we'll unto yourselves.
