Sudru -au original FeLer cooper
green backer-I am a peoples party
man from the crown of my head to the
soles of my feet. I favor money at
cost; free land; transportation at cost,
and free trade-each in the order
named. 1--WE cannot have free trade so
long as we allow SIS. 900 to earn more
than an able bodied adult laborer).
Whatever I may say or do, is said or
done in the best int rests of the cause
love so well, as it is given to me to see
the light am going to suggest what
in my humble judgment is the proper
course to pursue at the St Louis con-
vention and thereafter:
1. Let the delegates there assembled
formulate a set of principles, to be
known as the platform of the United
Industrialists of the United States of
America. Then adjourn and 60 home.
2. Let the national central commit
tee Of the peoples party call a nomina-
ting convention for some date in May,
appointing the basis of representation
at one member from each congressional
district in the United States, which
delegates, together with the existing
national central committee, shall form
the nominating convention
8. Let such delegates be selected at a
congressional convention to be held in
each congressional district and to be
composed of one delegate from each
township peoples party club in such
congressional districts.
4. Let the time intervening between
the St Louis conference and the nomi.
mating committee be occupied in or.
ganizing peoples party clubs in every
township in the United States and Sc
lecting delegates for the nominating
committee.
l could fill page with arguments in
favor of this course of procedure, but
shall offer none just now. Time, how
ever, will prove the soundness and
wisdom of my advice.
GEORGE c. WARD.
BE CAREFUL
The Toiler repeats what it has be-
fore said, that the delegates from the
alliance to the St Louis meeting have
no power or authority to bind any
member of the alliance politically.
The object of that meeting is to en-.
deavor to have the representatives OF
all labor organizations to agree on
such demands as all can unite in sup.
porting. Nor can any officer of the al.
lance issue any order or proclamation
that will in any way bind any man pc.
litica!ly. Our order is great educa-
tional institution to prepare voters for
intelligent action in the interest of
general prosperity to the whole reople
and the preservation of the liberties of
the people.-Nashville (Tenn-) Weekly

A "Reminiscences.

On the Fourth day OF February,
1861, the first so called 'sConfeder-
ate'' congress assembled at Mont
gomery, Alabama. Thirty-one years
ago! 1t is not a long time to those
of us who were in the war, and yet
a generation of active, hustling, en-
ergetic business men has grown up
since, and are making history in the
Developments possible in a time of
peacefully as great a history as
their fathers made in 1906. The
tremendous events of that time,
when as great armies as any the Old
World ever saw, were marshaled
against each other on American soil.
are fast becoming "reminiscences, and
to many they are like tale that is
told-they seem almost unreal. TIE
Americans of the younger genera
ton, to realize what that struggle
was, should visit some OF the south
ern battlefields in their pleasure
tours, and this can be easily and
cheaply done by taking advantage
OF the winter excursion rates offered
by The Burlington, which with direct
lines OF it's own to both Chicago and
st. Louis, is the favorite of south
hound travellers. For tickets, rates
and information, apply to any agent
of The Burlington or connecting
lines, or write to w. J. G. Kenyon,
Gen. Pass. Agent, St. Paul, Mimi.

THE BOARD OF EDUCATION.

WE sincerely regret to see the 7rj
dune depart from its well established
conservative record in the schoo'
matter. The fight is not made in the
interest of truth, otherwise it would
not be so wild in its assertions. Prof.
Oldham has Il large number of repub-
lican friends and some of them are at
present on the school board. This is
well known, because four republicans
oted for him when he was elected
SIX years ago, three of whom are on
the board now. The four that voted
for him were Cox, knapp, Dallmeyer
and Craven. Three of them have
supported him ever since, for which.
considering their politics. they should
be given due credit and it refutcs the
present charge that politics is the
cause of the change. In addition TO
this, of the seven new teachers elected,
four are classcd as democrats and
only three as republicans.
After the election of Mr.. White,
the board thought it would be wise
to make the changes, and it would
certainly appear that they were made
regardless of politics, otherwise Mr..
Leslie, Misses Shocklcy. Miller and
Harlan could not have been elected.
Members of the board of educa.
ton are servants of the people, elect
ed to perform the duties of their
Office in Il proper and painstaking
manner, regardless of favoritism,
kinship, or political influence. 1t is
their duty to subserve the public
good and ignore the appeals of all
classes when such appeals are based
upon any claim other than merit. If
the board believed that the good of
INC >cIlOOl demanded The changes,
and were satisfied from the evidence
before them that the applicants
selected were the hest that they could
secure, it was their duty to select
them and all good citizens should com
mend them for their work.
NJ
We might kick pretty vigorously
on political grounds, if politics had
cut any figure in the choice OF tc. cl-
ers, against the selection of four
democrats and only three republic, !.
Give the new teachers Il chance,
and If they prove to be failures they
can be let off next time.

get into office. This is the man who
is trying to wave the bloody shirt
against Warner. AS soon as he sent
out his little song all the moscow.
cred contingent began to sing it and
we assume that they intend to make
the campaign On that issue. 1t indi-
Gates That they are scared, and scar
ed badly. Shortly after George
Gimlethole Vest sent out the word,
Ex-Governor Crittendgn went to work
an interview and after ten days of
hard labor went to St. Louis to pro-
duce it-be delivered, as the mid
wives say. And if many democrats
in the state are not ashamed of it, we
are very much mistaken. But such
is the democratic party, and if any.
body will deny that a change is neces.
we would like TO see the color
Of his hair. Major Warner will be
Ihe next governor Of Missouri, and
he Jawsmiths and Gimletholes don't
know what TO do be saved. They can
save themselves by voting for Warner
swelling his majority to 10000.
The state republican. (Jefferson City, Mo.) 1871-1896, 1892-06-02

As LONG rs the republicans in the
school board voted for democratic
teachers, there was no politics in it,
but as soon as Il change was male,
it was politics up to their chin. That's
Il sly way the democrats have of get.
ting everything in sight. When a
republican school board selects four
democrats and only three republicans
it looks a little as if the republicans
have a kick coming.

TIE address delivered in the hall
of the house of representatives on
the 30th ult., to tie Grand Army of
the Republic by the distinguished
senator, John j. ingalls,, of Kansas,
was one of the most polished, schol-
arly and statesmenlike efforts that it
has been our pleasure to listen to
in many years. The high rcputa.
ton of this great master of the Eng
lish language was more than sustain.
ed in his beautiful and eloquent pre-
s~entation of the subject with which
he dealt. No one could listen to him
and fail to see the necessity for the
work that is being done by the Grand
Army of the Republic. Garfield post
honored itself and the city by secur.

Lusk, Judge Siamplli, and others,
for the successful manner in which
the arrangements were carried out.
