NOTES TAKEN ON THE TRAIN
The writer was on the cars two
days recently and took notes of some
Of the things he heard and saw.

Of the things he heard and saw.
On the seat in front of US sat tive
men. They were discussing thei
experience in getting bills through
the Legislatures Mr.. A. said wei
did You have any trouble in getting
your bill through with the CONSOLE
dation clause in it this time. Mr.
B.-No, a few raised objections to il
but the majority of this crowd were
all right. | ought to have had bet
ter sense than to have tried to get
the bill through . years ago, but Sen.
ator -- told me that he could slip
it through for me. There were some
fellows in that Farmers Legislature
who were smart enough to catch
on to anything.
Ona seat on the opposite side OF
the car sat lady who was return
ing from the Commencement of one
of our fashionable Female Colleges.
She was talking to gentleman in a
seat behind her. She was discussing
some school for girls 1--WE could not
catch whether it was the Normal and
Industrial. school or some other where
the girls were required to do some in
dustrial work. She said that she
did not like that kind of thing at all.
That 1t would do, though, for com
mon girls who would have to work
for living. The gentleman then
asked her where her daughter was
who graduated last year. She oh,
Evelyn was so delicate and was SC
exhausted from her Commencement
duties that she had to stay and rest
few days before she was equal to
the eXertlon of riding home.
We went forward In the smoking
car. We took a seat behind two
travelling men who were discussing
the enormous number of failures.
Mr.. a. said that it was bad break
of Reynolds in Winston want it9
Mr.. b have not heard the par
tlculars, tell me about it.
Mr.. A.-Why he broke for $780,.
600.
Mr.. BLOW much were his as,
sets?
Mr.. A., | think about 100000.
Mr.. B.-How is thise
Mr.. A.-Well you see he has
enough property to leave him a for.
tune above his debts, but he had tt
raise some money and could not dc
it. He could not get it from the
bank or any where else even on gill
edge securities.
= NJ. Al have heard of number
OF failures of that kind. What /.
the remedy for this state of affairs
we are bound to have more money
MIR. B.-Yes we must have more
money or half of the business enter
prises of the country will go to the
wall But l guess Cleveland will fl,
1t all right. | see he is going to cal
an session of Congress to repeal the
silver law.
At this point we leaned forward
and said: Ny friend, does not tn,
present silver law add $4,000, 600 {
month to the amount of money j,
circulation every month";
Mr.. B.-Yes | believe it does.
We then said, my friend if this il
true, will not the money pressure b,
81, 900. 900 a month tighter than it i
now if the silver law is repealed.
Mr.. B.-Well l don't know abou
that, but | believe Cleveland will
fix it all right.

The Coal Combine.

There is one suspicious result from
the coal combine inves estigation-we
are paying higher price for coal.
That's all. 1gnatius stamped his
foot, but nothing tumbled.-St.
Peter News.
One would think to read this that
"Ignatius' was governor, legislature,
supreme court, district court and
grand jury all in one. This fool re-
proaches him with the powerlessness
of being private citizen, by the
vote OF the sovereign people. If
"1gnatius" was dicta tor for about one
year, in these United States, the
plunderers Of the people would
take to balloons to escape the
impending wrath. The old party pa
pers should be ashamed-heartily
refer to the fact that
the efforts of "Ignatius" to help the
people, for twenty years past, have
been brought to nothing by old-party
as in this coal combine busi-
ness. Mr.. DOnnelly did all he could
do; but neither democrats nor re-
publicans did what they ought to have
done:-and so-"nothing tumbled."
No; but if this thing keeps on the
will tumble. Id.

Sunny South? Oh, Minnesota is a
proud state to-day. And our debt OF
gratitude to the railroad corp ,ra-
tiOnS is increased a thousand fold.
We thank them for years of de-
moralization and degeneration; for
emasculating the public conscience;
for corrupting our courts, juries and
legislatures; for helping to maintain
all rings, combines and robberies; for
lowering the moral status of the
whole commonwealth; for perverting
and muzzling our wretched newspa-
pers; and above all for picking out
for us such creatures of saw-duSt and
stuffed rags, such effigies of men as
this Washburn, to go, at our expense,
to the great council of the nation, to
make us the butt and laughing stock
of the civilized world.
WaShburn at the head of the
Weat Ring; Washburn at the head of
the Pine Land Ring; Washburn in
the United States Senate; Washburn
making an ass of himself! And this
is Minnesota of which We are citi-
ZenS!! I'D. ).

Another USurpatiOn.

Boston, Sept. 27.-There was SEN
sation in the supreme judicial court
to-day. The case of Van HOuten vs..
Morse had been opened and reporters
were representing the newspapers
when, at the conclusion of the re-
marks of the council, Judge Baker
arose and said:
"Mr. Clerk, you may enter an order
that no report of this case or COM
ment thereon is to be made in any
newspaper until the case is ended"
The case in question is a breach Of
promise suit of Mrs. Annie Van Hou-
ten against Asa p. Morse, Of Cam
bridge, Mass, who is an executor and
bank president. The order is said by
Boston lawyers to be without pre-
cedent in Massachusetts courts.
What difference does that make?
The judicial chariot has got to roll
on. "The public be DID," as Van
derbilt said. And in this case the
defendant is bamk president! Isn't
that enough to suspend all laws and
abolish all precedents? A bank
presidents! Down on your knees

The New Nomenclature.

"Mr. What's-his-name, the new min
ister to Italy, is we'll qualified for the
position. He is rated at $4,000, 900. :"
That's good idea. Family names
were largely accidents. The son of
John became Johnson. The son of
Peter, Peterson, etc. Or man is
called Brown" or "Black," OF
"White," or "Tawney," or "Gray," {"
or "Long" or "Short" or "Stout," be-
cause of the physical peculiarities of
some remote ancestor. But those
names throw no light on the real
man of to-day:-Mr. BLACK" may be
red-haired: Mr.. "White" may be
black-haired; Mr.. "Long" may be
short-legged and Mr.. "Short" may be
long-legged.
But money! All! there's rub! It is
what man is auorth, not what he IS,
that determines his position. For in
stance,-"Mr. Twelve Millions'' is fit
to go as minister to Italy; or to be-
come U. S. Senator. But Mr.. Two
dollarS-and-a- half would convey the
evidence Of his mental and social in
feriority in his very name; there
would be no use of bothering ones
head any further about him. He is
rated-proscribed-set down.
Imagine a public meeting.
The chair says "Mr. Twenty Mil
lions has the floor" How the audi
ence would hang with devout and
rapt attention on his every utter
ance, even though they knew he had
stolen every dollar of his fortune
And then imagine "Mr. Thirty Seven
Cents rising to reply to him! How
the crowd would cough and shuttle
and laugh and sneer and break for
the door. The poor devil might have
the wisdom of the bare-footeG
Socrates and the honesty of the bare
headed Diogines, but, in the vernac-
ular,-he would not be in it.
BY all means let US have the new
nomenclature. 1t would simplify
things. It would be an official recog-
milton of existing conditions. I'D.

yea, fight until the last home of

II however the lender is willing to
give you ample time to work the real

The Good Roads Agitation.

Did you notice how quickly the
subsidized ROthschilds-b bOndholder
metropolitan daily press shut up on
the "good roads" agitation when the
6 900 populist papers in the United
States took up the idea and suggest
ed that the government issue green
backs to be turned loose in order to
pay for said "good roads. ."-Denver
Road
Let our readers think back to last
winter, and remember the universal
uproar, all over the United States,
for "good roads;''--the long edi-
torials in the daily press, and the
big conventions in St. Paul and
everywhere else. What was it all
for? To procure the issue of more
bonds-state bonds, county bonds,
township bonds! AS usual the mon
empower "played us for suckers" "
But the populists said: "Agreed; we
want good roads; and we need more
money; let the United States issue
500, 100000 of greenbacks, mot
bonds,) and build the roads; the un-
emp'oyed will have work; property
will rise in value and the whole coun-
try will boom with prosperity. But
the moment we said "greenbacks"
the whole uproar died down into alb
solute silence; the newspapers ceased
their paid clamors and the conven-
tions dissolved SINE die.
And what is all this uproar against
silver for? To reduce the currency
one-half; establish gold as the sole
currency, and then issue bonds to
buy gold; and as soon as that gold is
shipped back to Europe to issue
more bonds and buy more gold; and
so on until our whole people are toll
ing, from the cradle to the grave, to
support their foreign masters. And
| the clear-headed American people
are beginning to understand the
game. l. u.

Another Victim of the Gold Bugs

Walter Everstine of Rochester,
Minn., aged %, son of one of the
most prominent men of that city,
hung himself in his fathers barn the
other day. A special to the daily pa
pers says:
The dead man was twenty-eight
years of age, and has borne a good
reput ttion in the city. Dependency
ouer business matters brought ON fit of
brooding, to aUhich he ac0s subject, and
while temporary insane he commit
ted the mad act. He tied rope to
rafter and swung from it into space.
A letter was found addressed to his
parents, in which he stated that the
time had come to end his life.
Another victim of the attempt to
place the world on a monometallic
basis. And there will be hundreds of
thousands more of them before the
work is finished; and destroyed
world when it is finished. /. D.

No More Appointments.

Chicago, Oct. ia special to the
Daily News from Washington, d. c.,
says: Information comes from Secre-
tary Carlisle that all presidential ap-
pointments have been hung up until
the senate acts upon the silver ques-
tiOn. When Senator Brice called up
on Secretary Carlisle this morning to
secure action on some customs and
internal revenue appointments for
Ohio the secretary told him frankly
that the president had put his foot
down upon all appointments of the
presidential class, and that in all
probability there would be no more
made. except probably few of great
emergency, until after the senate
had acted upon the silver bill.
Old Cleveland should be impeached
and removed from the White House
for bull-dozing coordinate, inde-
pendent branch of the the govern
ment, and using the public offices as
bribes to induce men to vote against
the public interests.
The president is called "the Execu-
tive" because it is his duty to execute
the laws after they are made. King
Charles I lost his head for invad-
ing the House of Commons to terrify
and coerce members; but the STUFFED
prophet" is safe in this cowardly and
degenerate age. /. d.

A Story of Devotion,

Her head was nestled on his heaving
and manly bosom, and softly his arm
stole round her yielding waist.
The law takes no cognizance of this
class of stealing.
Nobody does, if proper precautions
are observed, except the two interested
parties.
Oh, love!
Oh, rapture!
He had told her the sweet words over
and over again, and she coyly cooed
them back to him.
A step was heard in the hall.
That is to say, it was heard by the

the beating of a fond heart.

A favorite plant with the old herb

back as the days of the Roman en-

the roots of the satyrion supplied the
satyrs with food and prompted them
