Freeland tribune. (Freeland, Pa.) 1888-1921, 1893-11-20

President Cleveland must feel like
asking himself sometimes whether a
man forfeits all the rights he is supposed
to have as citizen when becomes presi-
dent. When he does not advertise his
intentions he is accused of surrounding
with mystery. Because the newspapers
were not informed beforehand that the
family was to move this week from their
suburban residence to the White House
that simple domestic event was heralded
to the the country as sudden and mys-
terious change of plans, and lot of fool
reasons given to account for it, After
seeing his family settled in the White
House he committed the heinous crime
Of going to New York to attend to some
pressing private business, without tell
ing the newspaper men about it. As
soon as they found he was gone they
made the wires hot with stories about
his having gone to New York for the
purpose of having dangerous surgical
operation performed, etc. Now, could
have been more absurd?
President Cleveland is back again at
bis desk and there is nothing the mat
,er with him, except that he believes he
has the right to regulate his private af-
Freeland tribune. (Freeland, Pa.) 1888-1921, 1893-11-20

Nevertheless, with all the
opposition that will be brought
to bear against it, the annexa-
tionists appear to have the
inside track, and in all prob
abilities it will go through.
The majority of the people in
the territory concerned are in
favor of living under borough
government, as it will give
them some voice in managing
the affairs of the town, as well
as having representation on
the council, a tribunal before
which they can go and offer
recommendations for the i'm
provement of their different
localities. The necessity of a
sewer system in the Points is
too plain to require comment
by me, and the satisfaction of
knowing their properties and
persons will be given fire and
police protection, when such is
necessary, are matters which
should silence the opponents of
progress. In fact, so much
can be said in favor of having
this town under one municipal
government that the anti-an-
neXationists can offer no plausi-
BILE reason for their course, ex-
cepting a few personal excuses
which they seem ashamed to
make public.

MINNESOTA HorsenaGn: The state
of Minnesota made good investment
when it donated $4,000 toward the
recent live stock exhibit at theWorld's
Columbian exposition. The honorS
awarded our high bred cattle and
horses, while furnishing without cost
a good advertisement for the fortu-
nate owners. at the same time adver-
tised the state of Minnesota as the
home of the best bred live stock ia the
world, and that was more than worth
the cost of the exhibit. The trotting
horse exhibit which takes place Oct.
is will afford large number of eXhib-
itors from this state an opportunity
to add to laurels already won and fur
ther enhance the reputation of the
state as the future stock farm state
of the Union.

AN UNF0UNDED ATTACK.

The Albert Lea Standard processes
to believe THAT Congressman Boen of
this state is the only member Of the
congressional delegation who correct
ly represented the views Of the people
upon the silver question by his vote
upon the Wilson repeal bill. AS a
majority of the voters of Mr.. Boen's
district preferred him for congress,
and knew, or ought to have known,
his sentiments upon this question, it
is fair to assume that he fairly repre-
sents their views upon that question.
But his representation IN uthis parti-
cular line stops with the border line
of his district. TO say that the rest
of the congressman from this state
misrepresented the people is simply ITO
libel the people who sent them to
Washington. The two great parties
to which they belong declared for a
so0ud money system. The Democrat
ic declaration may have been some
what vague, but it did not contain
the heresies of the Populists. The
voters knew when they cast their bal.
lots, how these gentlemen wO ulo
stand when the financial question
came up, and that view must have
;been acceptable to them, or they
would have voted otherwise. In fact
the position was one of their own Sc
lecting. as they had, through theil
representatives in convention, made
the platform upon which these gen
tlemen stood. In other words the
gentlemen were selected because they
fully agreed with the voters en the is
sues at stake. TO say now that they
misrepresented the people by theil
vote, is to say that the people are ig
norant, and do not know what they
want.
Further, it issnnfair to charge thai
the congressman from this state are
because of their vote for repeal, OPP
ponents of silver as factor in oul
money system. 1t it altogether prob
able that aid of them would favO
any move of an international nature
, which would place silver upon saf'
basis and prevent it's further debase
ment. We do not believe that one O
them will oppose silver dollar worth
100 cents, but by their vote they have
placed themselves in line with tn,
voice of the people as opposed to TIL
1 further forcing upon the public 'of ;
i60-cent dollar. AS yet NO member o
1 the Minnesota congressional delega
tion has placed himself on record a.
making war upon silver as factor il
our financial system, and until the.
do, it is the height of nonsense tt
charge them with misrepresentinl
the people of the-state on that score

As REGARDS the wheat crop of the
present year one can obtain most any
figures he likes upon the subject
There has been a general agreement
all along, however, that there was a
large shortage compared with the
yield of previous years, but now
comes the ST. Paul Neaos with another
set of figures and says: "Notwith-
standing all the elaborate figures pro.
cured by hold your wheat advisers,
the cold fact appears to be that the
worlds supply of this cereal this year
is 100000 bushels larger than it
was last year."

On the first of January, 1890, the
mortgage Indebtedness of the city of
New York was 1888. 1854, $50. This is
five times as much as that of Kansas
on the same date, yet we have never
heard any Populist express any SYM
pathy for mortgage ridden New York.
One who has paid little attention to
be matter, would be led to infer
from the wall of the professional agi-
tator, that the burden Of indebtedness
rested only upon the west. The fact
is it is distributed all over the
country, and the greater per cent of
of the burden rests upon the city, than
upon the country.

SHOULD BE RECONSTRUCTED.

The board of regents of the State
University have made serious mis-
take in letting the contract for the
new library building for the
University to be built with
Ohio stone, aud SO sighting
one of the great natural industries of
the state. No better stone can be
found anywhere, than those taken
from Minnesota quarries, and the
action of the board is a slap in the
face for Minnesota and her taxpayers.
The excuse given by the board is that
Minnesota stone will not give as
classic appearance to the building as
ne Ohio stone. The excuse is
shin. But be that as it may,
sREE PRESS believes that the ap-
rance from Minnesota stone will
classical enough for the northwest,
and. that being Minnesota enterprise,
paid for by Minnesota taxpayers, the
product Of our state should be given
the preference, and the work of pre-
pairing the same given to Minnesota
| labor.
Concerning the statement as to the
selection of Ohio stone because it will
present more classical appearance,
| the st. Paul Ne,os has the following
comparing the stone OF the two states:
In point of utility, however, the
| " IL - 10 Of VI
State GeolOgiSt Winchel gives It's
crushing strength and durability at
IS in scale of 100, while the ONO
stone ranks but 81. The Minnesota
stone will not crack under intense
heat, while the Ohio stone will, In
color the Ohio stone is cream, while
the Minnesota stone is cream with a
faint pinkish tint; but the Ohio stone
discolors more rapidly by exposure TO
the elements, as the Minneapolis post
office building. which is constructed
: of that material, shows.
, The Neaes further states that Pres.
i ident Northrup of the University
says it is not yet too late to recon
, slider the matter and do justice to the
: state. If it can be done it ought tC
at once. The FREE PRESS is charita
BILE enough to believe that the board
3 disposed of the matter while laborine
] under the mistake that Ohio stone
was really superior to that of Mime
e sofa, and that it ought to be willing
S if possible, to give the matter re
s oeLsiloeation, and award &c Mime

S means possible should be brought t,
j. bear to bring about a rehearing il

that anyMinnesotian who has attend

have more pretentious, more unique
or more artistic structures, there are
none more homelike. 1t is general

The other side of the story Of the
settlement of the Cherokee strip is
now coming ut,and it is not so pleas
ant as the anticipation was. The
thousands who went there have not
found things as pleasant as pictured.
and they are now leaving by the
thousands. Strange it is. indeed, that
men will endure such suffering as has
come to thousands there, and subject
their families to privatiOns Of frontier
life, in the hope of getting something
for nothing. In the scramble for a
piece OF land they risked life health
and comfort, only TO meet with disap
pointment, when within the borders
of Minnesota large tracts Of vacant
land may be had at nominal sum;
where the advantages OF civilization
may be enjoyed from the first; where
water is abundant and grass is Of the
finest quality, and the climate is I'M
rivaled. Thousands in their south
west chase wasted the small means
at their command, who had they but
turned their faces to the northwest
could have we'll established them
selves upon it's fertile prairies. 1t
takes work to establish ones self any
where and it is manifest from all re-
ports that the same amount OF labor
expended upon the rich acres of Min
nesota will yield greater returns, than
it will in the dry and .torrid region
of the Cherokee strip.

ANOTHER LIE NAILED.

BELGRADE, Sept. Is, 1893.
EDITOR TRIBUNE.
1t seems to be the rule rather than
the exception for Democrat to lie,
and in doing so he never seems to
think of the injury he may do an in
dividual, neither does he seem to
care. An article appeared a few
weeks ago in St. James paper. and
was copied in the Mankato ReDieoo and
st. Peter Herald, in which the writer
''claimed to have had an interview
with me politically, in which | had
given my views as to the cause OF the
present financial depression, charging
it to projection, and the mal-admin-
istration of the Republican party;
that l had the utmost confidence in
Cleveland: that I hoped the Lord
would forgive me for supporting the
Republican party, and spare my life
until the next Presidential election,
| that [ might cast one straight DEM
ocratic vote, and then I would die
happy"
Now, Messrs. Editors. 1 want to
brand the above charges as the most
unfounded, unvarnished lie ever made
out of whole cloth. There is not one
lletter, word or line in the whole
article that is true or was ever utter
led. l have been Republican from

cause believe in it's principles. 1t
was the party that saved this Nation
from destruction at the hands Ct

is the party that for thirty-one years
has given to this country an era OF
prosperity that has brought Joy to all
classes of people, and developed a
land that has not only filled our OWE
people with establishment, but has ex
lcited wonder from the whole civilized
world. 1t is Lne party that has
Iushered into existence under the be
nign influence of protection, thou
