Our cause is paramount to all inter
ested; it is struggle for liberty or
death. The enemy's guns are today
ranged upon us as party. They have
everything, except equity and justice,
in their hands. With the eternal
truth that which is produced by
man, belongs to the man who produces
it, we may claim the right with us;
hence the necessity at this time for
the producer to stand shoulder to
shoulder, and give our cause our in
dividual attention. The bugle has
sounded, the fight is on, all along the
line. The advocates and defenders
of the alliance and peoples party
cause cannot afford to lose valuable
time now nor money booming any
individual interest. At no time has
my faith in the cause been disturbed.

Perfumed Resolutions.

Donnelly sticks to it that the Chi
cago convention should declare that
all trusts are contraband, and re-
minded the delegates that the con-
vention would not have been held
but for him. To so much credit he
is entitled.
He had also right to get mad
when the committee on resolutions
reported that over-capitalization was
the cause of the present, financial
distress, that congress should there
fore limit the bonding OF corpora
tions, that a permanent association
should be formed, and that the Sher-
man law should be enforced.
Chops and tomato sauce! No
wonder that Donnelly was vexed
when the learned gentlemen pro-
posed to put out Vesuvius with a
pocket atOmizer.-Duluth Common

Good Sense.

cit looks very much as if the coal
combine and other rings got posses
sion of the antitrust convention at
Chicago this week, so far at least as
to split the convention into two fac
tions. It is no more than what might
have been expected. You cannot
mix Oil and water. Before the wrongs
that now Cypress the people can be
righted there must be political party
pledged to wipe out the wrongs not
to regulate" them.-From the Wa

The Books will be Delivered.

9 Unavoidable delay is occasioned in
the delivery of books to some of our
patrons by reason of the unfortu-
nate financial embarrassment of Mr..
Donnelly's publishers, Messrs. F. J.
Schultz s. Co. of Chicago. The mat
ter will be adjusted and the books
everyone delivered in due course Of
business. In the mean time we beg
the indulgence Of our friends.

Editor Representative:
Our attention was recently called
to an article in the Great West, in
which the editor throws a few un.
civilized titles at one of our respect.
ed citizens by calling him ''Pewter
Plated Curiosity puppy, "''a rank
fusionist," etc.
OF course, the citizens of this coun.
ty know CDR" Fish of old, and are
not surprised at anything vile that
emanates from his diseased mind, and
make due allowance for all he says
and does, but to the few readers of
his sheet that are not personally &C
quainted with Mr.. BENZ. Peacock,
the man whom Fish in an imbecile
moment hurls his blunt adjectives
at, we will say he is man who is re-
spected in the community and is one
of the greatest workers in the peo-
pies party in this county, and is
withal an honest and upright man.
He was the county chairman last
year and the campaign was conduct
ed by him in very able manner. He
is no friend of traitors and turn
coats, and as he knows Fish of old,
gives him wide berth.
OF course here, where Fish came
to, from some unknown (?) place
walking the ties Of a railway and
begged enough money to start pa
per and afterwards turned traitor to
all our citizens, anything that he
may say or do will make no impress
sion. He is knoaoa to be q rascal, and
not fit for white men to have any
thing to do with. When here, he was
continually bowling corruption"
OF COURSE HE DID
And when the eyes of the people were
turned in another direction he gave
them the laugh and proceeded to
pour the ducats down his own Jeans
to an alarming extent.

of political deal he was in
when running paper at this
place (Glenwood, Minn.,) and &C
cepted, yes, really and truly ac-
cepted,-the thanks (?) of one of our
late officials. Oh no, Fish would not
accept boodle-just look out for him
when any is afloat and see if you do
not find him at the drip-cock ready
to sip every bit that oozes out by any
manner or means. And we do know
it to be a fact that he rode on pass
from Glenwood to Minneapolis one
day while the legislature of 1889 was
in session. Riding on pass is a
mans privilege whenever he can Sc
cure one, but let him keep from lying
about it afterwards.
This man Fish claims the party
was ruined in Pope county by Ben
Peacock. Perhaps so, but if it can be
laid to him it is in this one instance!
He allowed Everett Windbag Fish to
come into the county and whoop 'er
up in his insane style. We know
for fact that Fish killed more
votes when he was here than a dozen
men could win. We dislike to kick a
man when he is down, but we think
it duty to the peoples party to do
anything to chain up this man Fish
from doing any more damage in our
ranks, and our only hope is that he
may be forced to quit our party and
be great a deal better to have him
against us than with us. Let him
go. A CITIZEN.

case of J. J. Rhodes and the coal COM
bine, and in the case of Markham;
seeing the state elevator law defeat

erected as early as 1750-probably as late as
1850. 1t is mentioned in Henning's Statutes
OF Large as one of the Chapels more costly
than many others. The site. which is on the
lands of Col. II. b. Davenport, is supposed to
have been donated by Lord Fairfax. 1t issup-

costly, than others. because II was located near
where many wealthy Church-of-E England peo-
pie lived who would take pride in out-doing
their neighbors in the size and magnifcence
of their houses Of worship. At any rate. the
present ruin was once grand in its time. The
walls were of stone quarred in the vicinity.

0T8E OLD MAN.
Bob Birby Lectures Fe'r Lines to the
Too Fresh Boy.

'Ichabod, my boy, me thought | heard
you speak this morning of your sire as the
old man. You are 20 years of age, are
you not? Just so This is the age when
callow youth has his first attack of the big
head You imagine at this moment that
you know il all. observe by the cut OF your
trousers and the angle of your hat, aud the
favor of your breath, and the style of your
toothpick shoes, and the swagger of your
walk, that you are badly gone on yourself.
This is an error of youth which your uncle
can overlook, but it pains sorely TO hear
you speak in terms of disrespect of one you
should never mention save by the sa-
cred name of father He may not be up
TO STYLE in the modern art of making a fool
of himself, but ten to one, he forgets more
in week than you will ever know. He
may not enjoy smoking gutter-snipes, chop
ped fine and inclosed in delicate tissue pa
per, but he has borne good many hard
knocks for your sake, and is entitled to all
the reverence your shallow brain can mus
ter. BY and by, after you are through
knowing it all and begin to learn some
thing, you will be ashamed to look in the
glass, and will wonder where the fookiller
Kept himself when you were ripe for the sac
rifice. And then when the old man grows
tired of the journey aud stops to rest, and
YOU fold his hands across his bosom and
take a last look at face that has grown
beautiful in death, you will feel sting OF
regret that you ever spoke OF him IN SO
grossly disrsspectiul manner, and when
you hear other sprouts of imbecility using
the language that SO delighted you in the
germinal period of manhood, you will feel
like chasing them with a sled stake and
crushing their skull to see if there is any
brain tissue on the inside. "-Liacolh Jour
