bury, of Minneapolis, addressed the

ket as fat money would have, and the
pending measure would prevent the
sale OF fictitious wheat; would be bene-
ficial to the farmer and consequently to
every person in the country. MIR. Brig
ham, farmer from Ohio, also favored
the measure and voiced tue views of the

trading in options and futures.

Promptly Nailed tho Lie.
Some time since an article appeared
in the Benson (Swift Co.. Times, as
follows:
eve heard prominent citizen
alliance man say the other day that
the holding OF the republican conven-
ton in Minneapolis next June meant
the nomination of Jas. G.. Blaine,
that his nomination meant his cleo
ton and that for his part he could
not see what Mr.. Blaine had ever
done which could be urged as a rea-
son why an alliance man could not
support him, and that there were
not more than four or five of the
citizens alliance men of Benson but
what we're Blaine men; in every one
of which statements we agreed with
him. The man who does not admire
the ability and course of our brainy
secretary of state is a hard man to
satisfy"
Hence the following resolutions
were adopted by the Benson citizens
alliance which met on Dec. II, 1891:
Whereas, no member of the Nation
al Citizens Alliance could intend to
make such statements, without vio-
lating his allegiance to our organ
ization and placing himself in direct
opposition to our declared princi-
Piles,
Resolved, that we pronounce said
statements to be misrepresenting
our organization, whose members
are not blind, slavish followers OF
any politician, or other person, but
free, Independent men, banded to-
gether for the patriotic purpose of
promoting needed reforms and the
welfare of our country, by peaceable
and lawful means.
Resolved, further, that theseresolu-
tions be published, if possible, in the

Standard and the "Swift County
Monitor"

ten the following letter which should
open the eyes of many to the prevail
ing mode Of control of legislatures
by R. R. corporations.
TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.
"The state of New Hampshire is
now owned by two railroad systems.
The manager of these roads are dem
ocrats and they have the democratic
party in their clutches. These dem
ocratic bosses also are allowed to
dictate the policy and name the can
didates of the republican party.
Their Republican employees paid by
passes and money, control the eau
cuses and conventions of the repub-
lican party, and their tools become
it's nominees.

ayers of the state) finding his case
hopeless without their aid, bargains
with them for and secures his cleo
ton as senator, pays them for their
assistance by the passage of impor-
tant railroad measures, and becomes
their bounden and subservient tool.
His services and those of all the fol-
lowers he can command belong now
and hereafter to the democratic par
ty, and with the aid of their money
and we'll known appliances, he will en-
deavor to perpetuate his and their
power in the republican party. The
present condition of this once indie.
pendent party is lamentable enough.
All lawyers ride free on railroads.
The editors and newspaper man.
ayers ride free. Ministers ride free
or at special rates. The governor
rides free. His council ride free. All
officers ride free. The members Of
the legislature all ride free, not only
during the session but during the
rest Of the year. Country, city and
town officers ride free. The wives
and children Of most of the free rid
ers ride free. Above all, local politi
clans in every town and ward ride
free. The exceptions to the above
statements are so few that they
prove the general rule. Corruption
by mileage tickets and free passas il
almost universal. No person of any
Importance in town or state fails te
ride free unless he omits to Nsk fol
his free pass or his free ticket.
If any person, high o.
low, rich or poor is heard to MAXI
any vigorous protest against any
railroad wrong, he is approached
by some ready emissary of the roadI
and quieted by a free pass,
