To the Editor:
I firm believer that the Representa-
tive has done more for the Peoples party
movement in this state than so campaign
speakers could do. 1t is the intellectual
backbone of the movement in Minnesota
With it's strong editorial management and
model typographical arrangement, it's con-
tinual regard for truth and consistency of
purpose, it has won it's way into the respect
and confidence of all parties and classes
"a position which no paper of mushroom
campaign growth could attain. An attempt
to wreck the Representative is an ATTEMPT
to dagger the party in this state, and to
sink the hopes of reform.

TO the EuItOr.
I deeply regret any split in the Peoples
Party when the prospects are so favorable
to victory, and united action is SO essen
tial to that end. 1 question very much the
honesty of purpose of the promoters of
the paper scheme. Evidently the intention
is to burst the party and hand us over

The Peoples Party Should DisgOrge

To the Editor:
In relation to the attempt to strangle
the Representative and lay on the shelf

defender Hon. Ignatius Donnelly, l will
say that it can't be done in Wright county

PARDON me for suggesting to you the
propriety of being careful of the articles
that appear in the Representative that will
keep alive fractional strife; be patient the
people will fix matters; give them time to
act. Respectfully yours,

Fifty Feet of Rainfall Annually.

There is always more or less guess
work concerning the amount of rain that
falls during any storm period. Through
out the United States the amount that
falls on any one day rarely exceeds one
inch. There are certain portions of the
globe, however, that are frequently, and
others only occasionally, deluged with
water. On the southern slopes Of the
Himalaya mountains, at an altitude Of
4, 500 feet, Go inches of rainfall have
been registered in single year, of
which amount III inches 12 feet
inches) fell n the month of June At a
meteorological station in latitude IS
degrees, near the western boundary of
Hlndustan, the average rainfall for the
10 years ending with 1898 was 254
inches. In the northwestern part of Eng
land, at an altitude of 1900 feet, the
average annual rainfall is 146 inches,
III inches in excess of the mean for St
Louis, which is but 81 inches and a
fraction.
The wonderful record given above is
still more phenomenal when we con-
slider the fact that all the moisture the
atmosphere is capable Of holding at any
one time would cover the entire surface
of the globe to depth of less than four

And heard it. tell the listening moon.
In saddest undertone,
The loss and sorrow by It known.
"what though In spring my birks grow sweet,
In summer shade my tide?
What though the years unchanged repeat
Their magic at my slider
No more to me the bard returns
Who sang my banks and braes;
No more the lips of Robert Burns
Are vocal in my praise"
"Oh, bonny Dooni'' said I, take heart
And learn this truth OF me:
Immortal as his heavenly art
The bard himself must be.
Though never to your banks and braes
His wandering step returns,
The sweetest singer in your praise
Is still your Robert Burns"
Yet. as before, beside the Doom,

Iheard it tell the listening moon,
In saddest undertone,

WASHINGTON, Feb. 6.-Assistant Sec
rotary of the Interior Reynolds has rem
dered four decisions of considerable inn
portance to pension attorneys. He holds
that where several applications ara fled
for claimant at different times by
different attorneys, based ON separate
disabilities, the several applications pend
ing shall be considered as one claim and
allowed as such. If contract for a fee
of $25, on account of each disability, has
been filed, the only fee allowed VIII be to
the attorney filing the first contract
The former practice of dividing the fee
On the allowance of the claim between
the attorneys fling contracts has been
ordered discontinued. This is due TO the
fact that the commissioner of pensions
has no power to vary the terms of con-
tract or divide the fee between the at
torneys after the party fling the just
agreement, under the law, has complied
with the exact terms This ruling will
apply to claims already filed and in
which the attorney fling the contract
subsequent to the first has performed no
service, and to all claims hereafter fled.
Where widow claims pension for
herself and her own children, and also
declares for the soldier child by former
wife, the claim will be considered an en-
tirety and the rights of all the parties are
subject to single adjudication. In
these cases the attorney is entitled to but
one fee. In cases wherein the same re-
lation claimant asks for increase and al
legss non-disability, and an attorney
prosecutes the claim under articles of
agreement, the contract applies to the
whole MATER pending and the attorney
is held to but one fee.

i've citizens. Herr Kohn, well known
and wealthy merchant, in company with
his wife and friend, Herr Lewith, an

the party was insulted by Lieutenant
Ikalowics, an officer attached to regi-
ment stationed at Pilsen.
The citizens mentioned protested
against the insults, and their protests SO
enraged the officer that he drew his
sword and slashed Herr Le"'ith over the
head and hands in shock ,ng manner,
causing Herr Lewith to sick bleeding
upon the floor. In the meanwhile Herr
Kohn had run ont into the courtyard of
of the hotel shouting for help. His cries
caused the lieutenant to run after him
with his drawn sword in his hand.
Upon catching up with Herr Kohn. the
lieutenant plunged his sword through the
unfortunate citizens back, and the
latter fell upon his face in dying condi-
ton.

Admiral Ranhnm.

The prompt action of Admiral
Benham in forcing the insurgent
fleet in Rio harbor to cease firing
upon the wharves was primarily de-
signed to protect American merch-
ant vessels, and was thoroughly JUS
tifiable. The insurgent admiral has
asked permission to lombard Rio
without notice. and the American
commander has very properly re-
fused the request, saying that forty
eight hours' notice must be given
for the benefit of non combatants.
This reads like chapter of old
time history. In the early days OF
the republic our navy made itself
felt in every quarter of the globe,
aud in many instances our war YES
sells did not hesitate to burn little
powder when it was necessary to
protect the interests of our citizens.
For some years past, however, we
have pursued very different poll.
cy, and it required independence
and nerve for Admiral Benham to
go ahead upon his own response
bility. He will be sustained by
public sentiment, and it is to be
hoped that the government viii ap-
preciate the boIdness and decision
with which he has acted in behalf
of the rights and property of his
countrymen.
We need more Benhams in our
naval service. We need them all
along the coasts of Central and
South America. There are times
when a cannon ball is the best pa
cifcator Benham might have writ
ten notes every hour in the day
without impressing De Cana, but
when he fred the first gun hefound
it an easy matter to secure the pro-
lection he demanded for peaceful
merchantmen. Our gallant admi-
raj should be sustained and emphat-
ically endorsed.

FEBRUARY Z, 1894.


There are getting to be quite a
large number of candidates for the
Democratic nomination for Cong
ress in this district There is Judge
Tho. a. Harvey, of Huntington, a
most excellent man and a good
democrat. He has always been in
Office, and now holds a good Office,
that of Judge of the Eighth Judicial
Circuit, and it would be wrong to
call him from position he now so
ably and SO satisfactorily fills.
And there is Hon. W. w. Thomas,
of Putnam, who has been twice
elected to the Legislature from that
county, when the odds were great
ly against him. He is man of abil
ity and is right upon the silver and
tariff questions. and would make a
popular candidate.
Judge J. G. McCluer, of Parkers-
burg, comes next. He has been a
candidate on several occasions be-
fore, and we hardly believe he will
reach the nomination this time, for
If it goes away from Mason it will
be given to Mr.. Thomas, of Putnam
or Hon. John NJ. Hamilton, of Cal
houn. Judge McCluer may be very
popular up in his end of the State,
but at the last State Convention he
had no political influence with his
friends, who are anxious to have
him nominated for Congress-, and
as he allowed all his friends in
Wood, Peasants, Richie and Writ,
to cast all their votes in Convent
ion against all the Fourth District
candidates for Auditor, it is natural
that he should be asked to go to the
First and Second Districts for dele
gates to our next Congressional
Convention. But will add, that if
Mr.. McCluer gets the nomination,
he will have our enthusiastic sup
port.
Calhoun county will present her
gifted son, Hon. John NJ. Hamilton,
for the nomination. Heis an act
i've, energetic Democrat and a gen.
tleman of ability, is free silver
and tariff reform democrat, and
closely allied with the people.
Now we come to Mr.. Capehart.-
His strict adherence to the plat
form upon which he was elected;
his fight for the free coinage of sill
yer and for tariff reform, has
endeared him to the people of his
district, and there is a strong de-
mand for his denomination. The
largely increased majority by which
he was reelected in 1892, and his
popularity with the farming classes,
makes him popular and invinci-
BILE candidate. That he will be re-
nominated, we have not the least
doubt.

Perhaps Another mistake.

LONDON, Feb. 6.-The governor Of
Sierra Leone has telegraped confrma-
ton of the report received at Liverpool
Monday to the effect that there had
been another engagement between the
French and British forces on the front
Ter of Sierea Leone and that six men
had been killed. The governor in his re-
port says that several men were killed OF
both sides and that the French attacked
the British, whose force was entirely
composed of natives.
The Pail Mall Gazette, commenting on
the latest news from Sierra Leone, says
We can not have these things happening
