Carol e ssness Of Smallpox Nurse.

Complaint comes to the Posr-INrELLI-
GENCER from O'Brien's station that proper
precautions have not been taken to main
tain smallpox quarantine there since the
outbreak of the disease. It is said that the
man who nursed a man who died from the
disease and helped to bury him has gone
about the neighborhOod. visited the store
and saloon, and even taken the train to
town without using ordinary prudence
and care. The people are alarmed at the
prospect Of the malady spreading, and
want something done to protect them from
such carelessness on the part of those who
have been exposed.

Street Car Men Strike.

The street railway conductors and
drivers of St. Paul and Minneapolis
went out on a strike last Sunday
morning The occasion of the strike
was an order holding the men re-
sponsible not only for breakages Of
their cars, but for injuries to prop
erty or personal injuries sustained
by passengers in accidents due to the
negligence of conductors or motor
men, and obliging employees to de-
posit 800 with the company before
beginning work in their employ.
The injustice in both these prop
ositiOns is palpable and it is greatly
to the honor of the men that they
asserted their manhood. Mayor
Eustis, of Minneapolis assumed the
duty OF arbitrator and through his
efforts the company was induced to
rescind it's Objectionable order and
the men to abandon their project
of organizing a union. Cars were
running as usual Monday Morning
1t is estimated that the strike cost
the men 81, 100 in lost time and the
company $4,000 in lost receipts. A
suspension of service for "a hours
forfeits the company's charter.

Grover Cleveland, the president
of the United States, is the latest
and most distinguished convert to
the ranks of Calamity Howlers.t In
stating his reasons for calling the
proposed special session of congress
he said:
II think it not amiss that our peo-
pie should be informed authOrita-
lively that the time is at hand when
the Representatives in Congress will
be called upon to deal with finan-
cial condition which is the only men
ace to the cOuntry's welfare and
prosperity" ALREADY the
timidity of capital is painfully
apparent, and none of us can fail to
see that fear and apprehension in
monetary circles will ultimately
bring suffering to every humble
home in our land.''
After the alliance and peoples par
ty have warned the people for more
than five years that the welfare of
the country was threatened by the
financial policy of the government,
Mr.. Cleveland finds himself again
confronted by condition, not
a theory" The tariff jewsharp
falls into innocuous disuetude and
Grover takes up the calamity howl.
Is he talking through his hat, or is he
going to join the alliance?

propriated $1,000 to help an "adver-
Using committee" of business
men pay for pamphlets to advertise
the attractions of the city. That is
good! Mr.. Fairchild, realizing what
an indefensible piece of rascality he
had been guilty of, published an ex-
planatory statement in the city pa
pers from which the following is
taken:
81 wish to add now that real estate
constitutes the large part of the as
sets of every banker, merchant and
business man of any character in this
city, and there are times when they
are all glad to realize on these assets.
ut is simply suicidal when the
realty of the city valuation SO i'm
mensely surpasses the personality, to
make no effort to make it market
able, or to add to our population.
In other words, the balance Of ST..
Paul's population is taxed $4,000 to
create demand for the property of
5000 men who own the real estate of
the city. Tax the people that they
may pay their land lords higher rent.
The deal is fitting companion to
the $4,000 appropriation made by
the council to pay for the parade
that enabled Jim Hill to float an adj
ditional S., 1000, 900 of Great Northern

Approved.

The National Spectator of Fresno,
CAL, heartily approves Of the action
of the radical element, in the Chi
cago Antitrust conference with
drawing and holding a convention
of their own. 1t says:
Stalwart reformers like Weaver and
DOnnelly are too wide awake to allow
themselves to be identified with the
support of any halfway, namby-pam-
by measures. They mean business,
and meaning business they were oblig-
ed to cut loose from the mOnopolistic,
political time-servers, who are try
ing to make capital for themselves,
individually, under the pretense of
doing something.
The populists in Chicago did right
in withdrawing from a convention
that would not deny the right of pri-
vate or corporate ownership of ma
tural stores of wealth. The further
the populists travel along that road
the nearer will they get to solution
of the labor problem.

The Situation and the Remedy,

Gold has risen in value more than
fifty per cent. since 1878; it is still
rising, and, under present condi-
tions, must continue to rise at an
accelerated rate. Prices have fallen,
they are still falling, and must con-
tinue to fall as gold rises.
To put out more credit currency
redeemable in gold, as some purpose,
will prove no remedy, but on the
other hand, would aggravate the
evil. Nothing will cure this disor-
der but more gold, or make silver
again do the acoM of gold, as before
1873. More gold we cannot have; it
cannot be produced, it does not exist;
but on the other hand. is continually
becoming scarcer. What the world
requires is more standard money to
redeem acith, and not more promises
to be redeemed in gold.
The remedy, therefore, is a return
to bimetalliSm.
