BOARD OF EDUCATION.
Considerable Business Transacted and
the Board Reorganized.

Considerable Business Transacted and
the Board Recognized.
A special meeting was held at O'Clock
yesterday afternoon in the council cham
Der of the board of education. The five
members present were Messrs. Roberts,
Marsh, Kierulff, Crowley and Hitchcock.
In the absence of the president, DIR.
Hitchcock was in the chair, and an
nounced that the meeting had been
called to hear the report of the finance
committee on the sale of the Spring
street school, and to reorganize the
board.
The finance committee was not ready
to report, and Mr.. Marsh moved that
the clerk be instructed to advertise for
bids on the Spring street school property.
DR.. Kierulff thought that in order to
make any proceeding valid in the mat
ter of the sale it would require six votes.
He also considered it inopportune to
offer the property for sale at present.
Yet he did not wish to oppose the sale
if the majority desired it to 60 on.
The secretary, upon being appealed
to, declared that although the five mem
bers present could not accept bid, they
could certainly order the clerk to adver-
tise. The Marsh motion was then
passed.
In the discussion of the attendance at
board meetings, Mr.. Marsh said that it
was an injustice to the people to be COM
PEELED to adjourn three times in success
sion on account of the delinquencies OF
members. He did not think it out OF
the way to declare vacant the seat OF
Mr.. Wilmer. An examination OF the
minutes showed that Mr.. Wilmer
was last present on January 18th,
and had therefore not been absent With
out leave over thirty days. The matter
was therefore dropped.
The next order was the reorganization
of the board. DIR. Kierulf said that
under the rules of the board the cleo
ton of officers ought to have taken
place in January, but that, inasmuch as
there had been no meeting on the last
regular night of that month, the pres
ent meeting might be considered con
tinued January meeting. This view
was coincided with, and DIR. Kierulf
was forthwith unanimously elected
president. Mr.. Baker was elected clerk
The members present signed an enor
nous stack of demands, which have
been collecting for several weeks. SC
that the signature of only one addi
tional member will make them payable

SILVER MEN ORGANIZE.
An Address to the Voters of the West and
South.

An Address to the Voters of the West and
South.
The state executive committee of the
Colorado State Silver league issued an
address 10 the voters of Colorado and
the United States. The address sets
forth that the organization is purely
non-partisan one, and it's object is to
unite all voters of all parties through
out the west and south to secure, if pos
sible, the nomination of free coinage
candidate, on free coinage platform,
at both Minneapolis and Chicago. This
work, they urge, should be begun at
the primaries, and with that end in
view they ask the most thorough organ
ization throughout the country. While
recommending that every state and ter
ritory send delegations to those conven-
lions composed Of the best men that the
parties afford, still they give notice that
unless their requests are complied with
they will not support the candidate of
either convention. The address recites
that the organization is already COM
pleted in this state and urges the CO.
operation of both the west and south

Won't Redeem Their Pledges.

Congressman Watson, of Georgia, has
this to say of the manifest defeat of
free coinage in the house:
''This action in the house on the sill
yer bill is the death knell of the old
democratic organization. Hundreds Of
thousands of voters in the southern
states have felt that if financial relief
could be had democracy, as now or
gained, would give that relief if it had
a chance. With a majority of 14s in the
house it certainly had chance to
pass the free silver bill. It failed
to do it. It was only by the help
of nine peop-es party members
and eleven republicans that this i'm
mense democratic majority escaped a
Waterloo Consequently the most con-
servative democrat in the south knows
now that democratic majorities, WELD.
ed under the present organization, mean
absolutely nothing so far as practical
legislation is concerned. No power on
earth can now keep Georgia from going
into the electoral college with the peo-
pies party convention. I confidently
believe that the same is true Of several
other southern states"

The Relative Value of Gold and Silver
Nuts For Gold-Bugs to Crack.
The gold bugs, in their war on free
silver, are the only authority we want
for the statement that it only costs Il
cents to produce the bullion put into
silver dollar. The Nonconformist, in
paragraph which has been more freely
copied than anything in recent print,
said that the Homestake Mining Co., of
the Black Hills, operating the largest
quartz gold mills in the world, pro-
duce gold bullion at cost of 80
cents per dollars worth. This writer
knows this to be approximately correct.
For years this company, owned by the
late Senator Hearst, the Haggin Bros.
and others, have taken out in clear prof
it two dollars for every one expended
in these mines. The world over gold
does not cost more than silver. That
is, 25.S grains of gold do not cost more
to produce than 371I grains of silver
do.
The men who prate about an "honest"
dollar are themselves dishonest. Take
off the fat from gold, take away it's free
coinage the world over and what would
it's value be? Demonetize gold and
there is enough now foi all the wants
of the world in the arts and sciences for
seventy-fve years. With seventy-fve
years supply Of any commodity on
hand, how long would it maintain a
three-fold profit. It is the fat in favor
of gold that makes the Jew love gold.
It is because gold relatively is more
easily secreted that the Jew banker
prefers it to silver. For the first sew
enty-fve years of this government sill
yer was our ultimate standard. If good
enough for our fathers by what right
does Shylock dare to dishonor it now?
Back of 1878, when by deceit and rob-
berry they demonetized it, silver had the
nobler lineage and the better parent
age. But let the plutocrats rave. The
people have determined upon the free
and unlimited coinage of silver, not as
the end, but as a means to better times.
If Shylock has the voters to back him,
let the battle be joined.

CONGRESS MUST ACT.

Silver Must he Given Back It's Constitu.
tional Rights of Free Coinage.
1t elected men stand squarely up to
the position which they were supposed
to occupy on the silver question, it
would seem as if silver must be given
back its ancient and constitutional
rights of free coinage by the present
congress- The house, as now consti-
tuted, is without doubt in it's favor.
The last senate passed free coinage
bill so worded as to demonetize the
greenback in the same method in which
silver was demonetized in 1878. Hay
ing resorted to so dishonorable a
method to dwarf the people, when pre-
tending to favor their relief, it places
the present senate in a most peculiar
position. Will they show that their
action of the last session was honorable
or dishonorable?
When their pretended measure of re-
lief was shown to be a fraud. thew
skunk into their hiding committee
room and burrowed. The senate bill
was never passed after the exposure.
Had they favored the bill as it repre-
resented itself, it would have received
warm attention. If that senate bill
was not an intended fraud, it must re-
ceive the attention of the senate as
now constituted. It would seem, from
these facts, that the real danger now
lies with the executive. The president
seems to occupy very different grounds
from those he was supposed to occupy
when receiving the peoples support.
The people are of not as much interest
as Wall street. The Washington at
mosphere is polluted by close contact
with the Staten Island Sodom. Every
influence consistent with honor should
be brought to bear upon him which
would cause him to see the people, His
action will doubtless influence the
platform declarations of '92.
Cleveland's course was in the same
line and carried him to his defeat. Har-
rison's ideas were supposed to be in ac-
cord with the demands of the great
west The disappointment following
the exposure was great. No one to-
day expects less than veto from Har-
rison, if the chance is offered. That
the present congress can make the
strongest fight for free coinage of any
for years, is but an indication of the
aroused sentiment. Will they stultify
their honor and stink away from &C.
cording to the people their demanded
rights? This congress must act, and
act upon this question, as an element
has gained seats in both branches with
this question as the keystone.
If this congress fails, there is no hope
save in an absolute new organization.
It certainly will not be return to
either old heresy, from which all hope
has been driven. The political vibra-
tons portend an unrest not of kindness
to the methods of the past. If not
quelled it must crystalize into power
full political com bination of political
revolutionary nature which shall
recognize the present demands through
independent action. This would seem
to be peculiar opportunity. A new
element already occupies seats in con-
gress as harbingers of new way. We
watch intently. Williams in National

Who discovered Us.

Some contend that Left Erikson'
the son of Erik, discovered this coun-
try. Others claim that Amerigo YES
pucci was the guilty man. The ma
iority lean toward the Christopher
Columbus theory and we are on the
eve of celebrating his discovery OF a
country named after someone else.
At all events, whoever did it, it took
him long time to discover good
thing. Other discoveries have done
much better. For instance, itdid not
take long for the public to discover
that the Saint P aul&Duluth Railroad
is the best line to take between the
Twin Cities and the head OF the lake.
The Duluth Short Line, asst is called,
is famed throughout the Northwest
for it's admirable service, it's rapid
trains and the general excellence OF
it's appointments. It behooves the
tourist, therefore, to take this line

with the little income which the stock

about the multi-millionaire bond
