 The elite of Jewish society was out in full force last night, the occasion being the sixth annual opening ball of the Bluff City Club. The dancing hall, which is fifty by forty feet, was tastefully decorated with potted and cut flowers.

 At 10 o'clock, sharp, the musicians played the march, which was led by the President and his wife, AIr and Mrs Mo Hanf, after whom followed fifty couples all in gorgeous eos t1mes, which would do credit to those worn at the reception of a Queen.
 Dancing was indulged ill till 12I o'clock, when the announcement for the samptuous banquet was made, and the Club passed into the dining hall. Great credit is due Mr. and Mrs. 5.

CASH FOR WHEAT.
A Suggestion to Farmers Elevator
Companies.
WILLMAR, Sept. Is, '93.


WILLMAR, Sept. Is, '93.
MR.. EDITOR:
During these soul and body trying
times presume the people do deal
of thinking-especially if they read
the REPRESENTATIVE.
Our daily demo-republican papers,
even, are not now using their boast
full language, "the most prosperous
people on the face of the earth;" but
instead are full fedged calamity
howlers. 1t is amusing to see the
baby act of the old parties in accus-
ing each other for having caused the
panic.
The old party organs are now dis
cussing ways and means to handle
the crop. The big elevator compa-
nies say they are going to pay with
checks (wild-cat money! payable in
thirty days or less. Why not pay
with United States money on the
spot as we'll as in $50 days or less''?
1t is handler and doubly sure.
[ want to suggest to all farmers ell
evator companies that they pay good
money for all wheat delivered to
them. Nothing is easier in these
flush times. You have the advant-
age of the big companies because you
have the grain.
Here is the plan: Let your board of
directors constitute themselves a
committee on finance, hold a meet
ing, and assess each shareholder to
deliver to the elevator a certain num-
ber of bushels of grain to each share,
sufficient to do the business, such
amount of grain to be left in the ele-
vatOr for six months free of storage,
but interest on the amount of mon
ey that the shareholder is willing to
sell his wheat for during the six
months. In this way you can furnish
your own capital and if you ship as
as fast as taken in you don't
need large capital. If you ship to
reliable firm they will allow you
demand drafts for at least three
fourths value as long as they can sell
the wheat at the terminal stations.
Perhaps such a plan is already in
effect; if it is not, do not shut down
your house for lack of money, be-
cause you, yourself, have what is nee
essary to do the business with.

It is part of the purpose of estab-
fishing the REPRESENTATIVE to af
ford forum, in which the brightest
minds in the populist party and in
the farmers alliance can express and
compare their views. The paper will
not be responsible for the opinions
set forth, but will try to give all
sides of the questions at issue fair
hearing. We would suggest to our
correspondents to make their letters
brief and to the point; not to ex-
ceed one-quarter of column, if pos
sible. If you have lengthy cOmmun-
ication cut it in half and make two
letters of it. Avoid personalities.
Don't write unless you have some
thing to say; and let each letter
have motive and teach something
to the reader. Try to make your
readers better and wiser by what
you write. Never mind about the
grammar or the spelling. The prin-
ter will fix all that. Good sense and
an honest purpose are rarer things
than book learning.-THE EDITOR.

Employing them for
Shepherds.
MR.. EDITOR:
| recently met man who two
years ago took active part in alliance
work even to working for and voting
the alliance ticket. To-day he
seems to be dazed by and lost in ad-
miration of the great windy display
of our congressman on the financial
question. l learn his great expecta-
tion at present is to secure a fourth
class postmaster appointment, un-
der Cleveland's administration.
The gist of his argument in justi-
fcation of his Inconsistency, seems
to be, if our great fnanciers are
puzzled as to what is best to be done
with the financial question, it is
sheer presumption for we ordinary
mortals to pretend to have any
ideas about money. He is proud
to admit that he is perfect
ass so far as having any ideas
about money goes. For my part, l
wouldn't make such an admission
for all the appointments, high or
low, Cleveland has in his power to
give. The first necessity for some
thing with which to measure value,
was when occasion arose for distri.
buting wealth, so money was Gre
ated to measure the exchange value
of wealth. The law-making bodies
have the power to make money; the
influence used to sway congress in
it's policy in regard to money-mak-
ing has for the past twenty-five
years been exclusively the bankers
of this country; they have succeeded
in getting their demands enacted
into law, with the result of bring
ing themselves and the country to
the verge of ruin. What further
evidence do the people need to show
them the danger Of leaving such i'm
pOrtant matters in the hands of men
whose absorbing passion is selfish
greed. I think it time the wealth
producers took a hand in financial
legislation. The sooner the better.

The Business Mans Age?
FARIBAULT. Sept. 81, 1890


MR.. EDITOR:
For the past 80 years whenever I
have criticised the acts of the gov
ernment / have been met with the
statement, 'This is a business mans
age" The middle age was called the
age of chivalry; the knight was the
business man" of that age. He
must be honest, truthful, bold, and
just; he must protect the weak.
Fearless in defending the right, if he
failed his punishment was swift and
sure-his shield was broken, his
armor torn to pieces, he was put
astride rail, conveyed to place of
burial and subjected to a mock
burial, and then set at liberty amid
geers and Kisses.
Extremes in nature will equal end pro-
duce.
In man. they go into some mysterious
use"
Is it a fact that the business man
of to-day is the other extreme of all
the above? Was it what is called
business in sixty-one and two, to al
low man to be exempt from the
draft if he would pay three hundred
dollars? Was it the business man
that put the clause Except for du-
ties on imports and interest on the
public debit on treasury notes,
making a difference between the
musket holder and the bondholder?
By legislation they deprecated the
greenback to 38c on the dollar, and
John Sherman said we did it on pur-
pose; by legislation changed the con-
tract on the $40 bonds which were,
according to the act creating them,
payable in greenbacks, and made
them payable in coin-gold and silver
then dropped the silver dollar out
of the coinage-was that business?

A SUGGESTION.
s. United We Stand, Divided We
Fall"

1.-The number of alliance meetings held
in the south would indicate that there is
an old-fashioned revival on there.
Keep the ball rolling.-Dakota Ruralist
"The same is true in Minnesota.
The alliances are waking from their
long sleep and soon the grand pha-
lanx will stand, shoulder to shoulder,
ready to make a united charge on the
enemies of the people, "-Represent-
ative.
CHARGE" it is true, but that is the
sunsn'a sumamarann of what they can do;
for, without union with the labor
ers, mechanics, railroad employees,
etc., they can never win a battle.
If this is so, as experience indeed
has demonstrated, then why do the
reform forces keep up so many differ
ent organizations? Does not there
in lie their weakness, and the power
of plutocracy? The plutes under
stand this; therefore their motto is
and has always been, "Divide and
thou shalt rule"
And in order to accomplish this
they will not hesitate to resort to all
sorts of schemes. If need be they
will through hireling ministry and
and press, especially the religious
press, attempt to create strong feel
ing of hatred between the different
religious denominations, notably be-
tween catholics and protestants. In
deed, to judge by the tone of some
papers, it would seem as if the money
power had already deemed such a
step necessary. The reformers must
therefore adopt measures to counter
act such schemes.
T. ". Powderly has made move in
the right direction. He advises the
abandonment of the Knights Of La
Dor and American Federation of La
Dor and the welding of their ele-
ments into mighty industrial le-
gion. This is. wise advice, only it
does not go far enough. A state la
Dor congress, held in Lincoln, Neb.,
the I'd of July last, struck the right
key. Here distinct move was made
toward united political action of
all denominations of organized labor
and a coalition ,cith the farmers alliance.
Now, as far as l know, no sympathet-
ic vibrations have been heard from
other states responding to this sound
Why do not other states follow the
example of Nebraska
should like to hear the opinion of
the president of the state farmers al
lance of Minnesota in regard to the
following suggestion: 1 would sug-
gest that the alliance lecturers in
stead of awakening the alliances
from their long sleep, organize the
same into industrial legions both
local and county; and then let the
state alliance at it's. next annual
meeting disband and form itself into
a State Industrial Legion.
Allow me in conclusion to quote
from Circular No. l, issued by our
