A BATTLE ROYAL
Between Two Furious Gila
 Monsters.
Onlookers Nauseated by the Sick ening Stench Faint and Are
 Carried From the Scene.

Tuesday night witnessed most re- markable and fierce encounter between two large and we'll matched Gila mon- sters in the barroom of the Tempe ho- tel. One of the reptiles was caught Tuesday evening by rancher just out side of town and brought into the hotel for exhibition, whereupon Mir. Heaven rich, who possesses fine specimen himself, produced his pet and put the two together in the middle of the room wi tn view to seeing how they would conglomerate. The result was beyond all expectations for, strange to say, no sooner had the two sluggish beasts seen each other than with flashing eyes and jaws wide open and hideous breathing, they rushed, one upon the other, and proceeded to chew each other up after the most approved fashion.
 Up and down the barroom they fought, creating stampede among the guests. In the excitement, a table was upset, breaking a quantity of glassware and adding greatly to the commotion. Mir. Collier and another gentleman, whose name could not be ascertained, were nauseated by the foul smelling and poisonous vapors, emitted by the infuriated and horrible looking mons- ters and were carried from the room in a faintipg condition.
 The conflict continued with unahated fury. With foam hecked jaws and blood bespattered bodies, the two com. batants beat upon the floor and rolled ira atmosphere of the barroom was filled with most sick ening stench. No one had the courage to atte mpt to separ- ate the two enraged beasts. The fight continued with undated fury for fully fifteen minutes and the onIookers stood about on chairs and tables Finally, from sheer exhaustion, the two animals fell side by side where they lay almost helpless, covered with bloood and slime, but still glarng at each other with flashing eyes and evincing thei- pugnacious dispositions by darting at each other thelr thick, black, venenous fOrked tongues.
 One man in the crowd who had not lost all his nerve by the horrible scene mustered up sufficient courage to sepa- rate the beasts and both were securely corralled. MT. Heav nrich's pet was slightly the worse for wear and tear yetseriay morning asd his tors and distended body presents a sickenlng spectacle. The other animal, which was the larger of the two, died during the night. MT. Heavenrich states that if his Gila monster recoyers he stands ready to match it against any monster in the valley for $50.

Glass Eyes and Their Makers.

In Thuringia there is whole district which is dependent for its support on the manufacture of artificial eyes; hus- bands, wives and children all working together at the same means of liveli- hood And yet, though these simple German village people turn out their produce by the dozen, no two eyes are ever the same. No artificial eye has its exact fellow either in color or in size in the whole world The method of the manufacture is not very complicated art. There are firstly glass plates, which are blown by gas-Jets, then mold ed by hand into the form of an oval shaped cup. Then there is the coloring of the eyes, which is effected by the means of tracing with fine needles, the tints being left to the taste of the indi- vidual worker, though the scope of their taste is necessarily limited to grays and blues, and browns and blacks, which colors are assorted together before be- ing eventually dispatched to their vari-

The Tempe Track.

It may not be generally known, but it is nevertheless fact that Tempe has the best race track, and the only one that is kite-shaped in the territory. The soil is oi an alkalai nature, and in. stead of horse kicking the dirt behind him when running or trotting, the ground only shows a slight depression where the hoof strikes. It is now in be.terashape than ever before and our horsemen are talking of getting up a series of exciting races for the Fourth of July. Tempe has some fine trotters
 and pacers that are not known as yet to outsiders, so if the races come off,

EDITOR REPRESENTATIVE:
Enclosed you will find list of subscri-

every man that seeks for truth
should read. It is the champion of

Every peoples party man should raj
ly to it's support. If zoe do not sup
port 1t hoao cam 1t support us? The result
of the last election was severe blow
to us, and DR.. Fish's conduct has
STAGGERED us, so that the party is
keeping very quiet here; but we are
doing lot of thinking, we are only
resting on our oars, and will be
ready to pull for the shore with a
good strong arm when the time
comes. 1t is the stiffness before a

CLAY COUNTY ALLIANCE
Endorses The Representative and
the Officers of the State
Alliance.

GLYNDON, July 3, '93.
EDITOR REPRESENTATIVE:
At the meeting of the Clay county
alliance held recently the following
two resolutions were adopted:
1. Resolved, That we hail with
delight the appearance of the REP
RESENTATIvE and recommend it to
general support of all our reform
forces.
2. Resolved, That we have perfect
confidence in the present officers of
the state alliance and will stand by
them in the fight for principles.
o. G. FARSDALE, Sec'y.
The REPRESENTATIVE expresses
it's grateful acknowledgment to the
brethren of Clay county for this
official evidence of their appreciation
of our efforts, and of their unqualified
confidence in the officers of the state
alliance at time when an alleged
reform paper, backed up by the en-
tire force of the plutocratic press in
and out of the state, is making a
malignant attempt to caluminate
them and disrupt the reform party
in Minnesota.

ceive that an increase in prices all
around will really help you, let me
show you how you would be benefited
by the farm loan bill, reducing the
rate of interest to 2 per cent.
In this case you would have paid off
your mortgage in four years, have
1854 left, and would have paid but
$252.36 in interest; and could you still
have invested your savings so as to
pay you per cent per annum, at the
end of the eleven years you would
own your farm and be worth 81 ,697 81
besides.
It is unnecessary to say that my
Cattaraugus friend was astonished,
and at once agreed that the changes
demanded by the industrial oraganl-
cations of the country should become
the law.

He also said that it would require
70 per cent of the gross receipts to
maintain farm and pay expenses,
leaving 1861 to pay the interest and
apply on the principal.
When a boy I was considered an ex-
pert in mathematics, and l very soon
figured that with 1861 to pay princi-
pal and interest, it would require IL
years to pay off the mortgage, leav-
ing him a balance in cash of 344.90,
while in this time he would have paid
the sum of S., SS2.1 IL in interest.
Now, my friend, we will double the
price of every article sold from the
farm, and double the cost of every
thing bought, and you will pay off the
same mortgage in five years, and
have left $716.O1; instead of paying
81, 1922 interest, you will have paid
only $500. If you continue to work
and save for the full term OF eleven
years, and invest your savings at the
end of each year SO they will earn 6
per cent, you will not only own your
farm free from debt, but will be
worth $40, 224 besides, which you have

EDITOR REPRESENTATIVE:
I am sorry 1 cannot be at the
meeting of the state central commit
tee called for the 9Th, but let me as
sure you it is not from any lack of en-
thusiasm for the cause. I am more
than ever convinced that the saliva
tion of the American republic de-
ponds upon the success of the reform
movement. l have every reason to
believe that our fences in this county
are in good repair. If another cleo
tion we're pending I think we could
improve upon our vote of last fall.
If we exercise good judgment in the
selection of our candidates, we can
win in this state in 1894.

This road is laid on a tOwn-line be-

laid out for the convenience of the
farmers, to enable them to get out

the people reserve the right of way

If the facts are as stated by our
correspondent, the claim of the rail-
road company was preposterous and
should not have been paid. The
claim of the railroad company, as set
forth by our correspondent, involves
the proposition that a railroad COM
pany may separate the people on
one side of it's line from those on the
other side, and they may not cross
without paying tribute to the COM
pany. If railroad cuts off even an

THE WoRKINGMAN,s FOE.
| Trusts and Combines Of Today Duplicates
Of the Old Regal Despotisms.

Trusts and Combines Of Today Duplicates
Of the Old Regal Despotisms.
Trusts and combines are the working
mans foe. Trusts are the product Of q
new theory in the business world. Years
ago men worked on the principle that
competition is the life of trade" Now
they have grown wiser and realize that
competition is the death of industry"
Hence trusts" or the combination Of
capitalists engaged in the same pursuits.
are now becoming the rule in all the
chief lines of business. The general
principles involved in the creation OF
''trusts" are right enough. only they are
conducted on too narrow q basis. and
this is what makes them hurtful to the
wage Garner. As now organized trusts"
are conducted solely in the interests OF
capital They are huge partnerships Of
capital for capitals sake. If trusts were
joint partnership of capital and labor.
as they ought to be, on q profit sharing
basis. they would become the working
mans ally instead of his enemy and
would at the same time be public ben
eft. But as now organized and con-
Quoted they are inimical to the interests
Of the working classes and also to the
general public.
It cannot but be evident to all that
there is something wrong in an indus
trial organization that enables few men
to put millions of money into their COT
fers every year while the men who toll
for them and are their coadjutors in tho
production of such vast wealth only OBJ
tain bare subsistence or scant COM
petence. The gigantic combinations Of
capital existing in the industrial world
today are financial duplicates of the
old regal despotisms whose motto was
"Might makes right.
Those old despots ruled their realms
by the might of the sword. These new
despots rule in the realm Of business and
labor by the might Of money, power
that is well nigh omnipotent and that
often makes for injustice. tyranny and
fraud. Some of the doings of these mod
ern trusts seem strangely like gigantic
but legal Co limitations Of the deeds Of
rapine INDUCED in by the old vikings.
which they in their grim humor called
gathering property" regardless from
whom or how it was gathered In their
greed for gain these soulless corporations
grind the face Of the poor workngman
by oppressive measures and make the
general public contribute to their enor-
nous fortunes by taxing every industry
within their grasp all that it can bear
and still live, and thus both laborer and
producer are deprived Of their just and
lawful earnings. Christian Advocate.
