Will Wheelock be Bounced.

Gentle Joseph was rounded up last
Monday by a Minneapolis newspaper
reporter and on the following morn
ing an item appeared in the Tribune
as follows:
Joseph A. Wheelock was asked last
night if notices had yet been served
on himself or the Pioneer Press by
Ignatius Donnelly or his representa-
tive in another libel suit. He replied:
"No, and none will be. If there is |
promise you | will wind that fellow
up"
The actual proportions of that 81
verdict are at last forced upon the
reluctant comprehension OF the
Pioneer Press and the incorporators
of the Thirteen story advocate OF
plutocracy" have anguished bowels.
Gleefulness and harmony are flown
from the sanctum sanctOrum. In the
chamber of the common council OF
St. Paul recently one OF the incorpor-
ators is reported to have said that
the Donnelly libel suit had cost them
$12, 900, and that an edict has gone
forth that whose, be he reporter or
editor, shall get the P. P. into anoth-
er libel suit will be summarily
"fred." Now Mr.. Donnelly will in
stitute not only one but two suits
for libel against the Pioneer and we
wouldn't be surprised to see Joe
Wheelock bounced" before the fight

EDITOR GREAT WEST:

on in the radical path it has hereto
fore trodden. 1t is none too radical
for me. have been ground through

It takes sharp lye to clean scurvy
hogs. If the GREAT WEST only
could go into every farm house in
this land the American people would
regain their liberty. The financial
question is the point-it is the rock
upon which the ships OF the two old
parties will stand. Give us govern
ment, not national bank currency

itself, save only the railroad tariff.

The Traverse Co. Times pays us
the following compliment, and we
appreciate it very highly-hope that
we may sometime address the people
OF Traverse Co.:
cdr. Fish delivered a political
lecture at Clinton, Big Stone county
last Saturday. Owing to lack of adj
vertising a very small assemblage
heard him. We are sorry no great
er effort was made to let people
know he was to be there as we have
since talked with men who said they
would go thirty miles to hear him,
but did not know of it this time.
DR.. Fish proclaimed "his gospel" in
his vigorous manner for about three
hours, and we do not doubt that
many a seed fell in good ground.
When you come to Traverse county
we will let the people know all about
it Doctor"

EDITORIAL WH|z !!

Our travels have been limited since
our last. We mailed last letter on
the train at Princeton. The next
point was Wasioja, a pleasant little
village in Dodge County, about four
miles from Eden Station, on the Kan
sas City line. The venerable father
Yates was waiting for us at the sta
ton and drove us over to the village
hotel. Pres't Norton then took us to
see Lecturer Lang, who had been
seriously wounded by a fall.
In the afternoon the Dodge County
battalion assembled at the Hall,
which was filed full. Some prelimin-
airy alliance business was transacted,
and then the Dr. entered upon his
work. Dodge county is 'sall right"
These men are the genuine salt OF
the county-and will be heard from
next year! That evening ve were

bition friend Buck. Soon Mr.. Wells,
one OF the youngest farmers in the
county, and most successful, came in
upon us, on his way to Dodge Centre
and we put in the next hour driv-
ing down there, rather than wait SO
long at Eden. The night train bore
us homeward. There for week or
more, and now we write on the train
to Barron, Wis.-Monday Nov. I'd.
Go, morrow is election in eight states,
and we hope to hear good news be-
fore our return home.
Monday morning, Nov. I'd, we
started for Wisconsin. The first
point was Barron, in Barron county,
about IS miles northeast of the
Twin Cities. We were met by Mr..
Garrett and others at the depot. At
2:3O the hall contained about 200
people, and we began in earnest. So
hot did we become that within an
hour the fire-bell began to ring and
the audience jumped to their feet. A
large saw-mill was in flames about 80
rods away.
!. Some of the audience, however,
never left their seats. It was a big
fire, and it was a half hour before the
audience came back-but they did,
and we sailed in. In fact they sat
quiet until the shades of evening.
Then many of them adjourned to the
hotel-where a jovial 'meetin'" was
kept up until late in the evening. At
nine this tuesday morning we take
train to Turtle Lake, thence north
this p. m. to Cumberland, where a
big meeting is in prospect.

Not Much Of a War.

More than one of our contempo-
raries have alluded facetiously to
the "baking powder war" There
is no war OF the character indicated.
A certain baking powder achieve
ed fame because it was better than
anything that had previously been
prepared, and because it was adver-
tised in a liberal, original and ju-
dicious manner. The success of this
powder led to imitation, as success
always does, but to assert or to in.
innate that there is war between the
Royal Baking Powder and it's more
or less feeble imitators suggests the
picture Of death graDple between
an eagle and house-fy.

November Discoveries,

This is a somewhat remarkable
month for discoveries beneficial to
mankind, and the influence of which
continues widening for good.
November 81, 1902, the use and
benefit Of ships compass was dsicov-
cred, and as without it safe ocean
navigation would have been impos-
sible, it may be called the parent OF
all geographical discoveries that
have been made since that time.
November Is, 1897, the Cape of
Good Hope was discovered, and
then was opened to European com
merce a water way to the treasures
Of the Orient. Previous to that
date, trade between the East and
West was done by the slow and often
painful progress Of the caravan.
November 20, 177S, the Sandwich
Islands were dicovered, and this has
been a boon to Pacific ocean naviga-
tors, as a coaling and provisioning
station. 1t ought to belong to the
United States, and may some day
be annexed by Uncle Sam.
Thanksgiving Day, too, was dis
covered in New England during this
month, some two hundred years
ago, and the people of the North
west have discovered that to make
a quiet, safe and pleasant Journey
home on Thanksgiving-or any
other day-"The Burlington is the

PILLAGER, Mimi, Oct. "a

EDITOR GREAT WEST:
Will you please answer the follow
ing questions for the benefit OF read
ers OF the GREAT WEST. They are
dead issues to the two old parties,
but should be resurrected and dis
sected by the peoples party:
1. What was the Credit Mobilier.
2. Who was the author of the bill
granting Central Pacific and North
ern Pacific their rights Of way?-Be-
sides their enormous land grants.
How much land does each company
claim in their grants?
3. Did the government lend these
roads the money to build and pay
the interest? Was it a republican or
democratic majority that passed
those bills and made them laws.
4. Who fathered the bill to build
those dams on the upper Mississippi?
What did they cost? Who made the
bill law? democrats or republi-
cans? f. l.. MCCLELLAN.
We take up the above letter just as
we leave for the field in Wisconsin,
and can only answer from memory.
The questions are too many and
broad for any one letter or article.
1t would take dozen articles to an
swer properly-and they have been
answered to certain extent in the
G.. W.-even in issue of two weeks
since.
1. The Credit Mobilier was a COM
pany organized within the Pacific
Railway Companies to construct
railways on enormous bids, the mem
bers accepting their own bids; and it's
exposure as to bribery and corrup-
ton destroyed the reputation OF half
the congressman OF the day.
2. Stephen A. Douglas was the
first man to present Pacific Rail-
road Subsidy bill in Congress. But
all republican and most democratic
congressman were in favor Of these
measures. The awful corruption
which followed was not anticipated
at that time. 1t was provided
arainst, but as long as the c. K.
Davises remain in Congress what are
we going to do? The land grants
are something entirely different from
the rights OF way. The original
grant of the simple right of way has
never been looked upon as unjust,
when through government lands.
But the grants of land became the
great source of the most Infamous
corruption.
3. Yes the government issued
bonds of it's own to raise money to
give the roads, to the extent OF go
millions for the Union Pacific lines,
and Of course had to pay the interest.

A Legislative Endorsement.

A law was passed last winter in
Minnesota affecting the sale of alum
baking powders. The interest ex-
cited by the bill when proposed led
to a long and thorough investigation
by a legislative committee of the
qualities Of all the baking powders
sold in this State, with the result
that the Royal was shown by very
positive evidence from the State
Chemist, DR.. Drew, and others, to be
the purest, strongest, and in all re-
spects the best baking powder in the
market.
