The representative. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1893-1901, 1894-12-19

Has reSlgueu from. the SUdGo Alliance
and thinks he has retred. He doesn't
know how to rdtire. AS long as there
is any fight Donnelly will be in the
middle OF it. He wasn't born out Of
Irish for nothing.
Jamestown Alert: The chief cause
of land leaving the possession of the
small owner and coming into the own
| ership OF the mortgage is undoubted-
ly low prices for farm products, and
great decrease in general and staple
values from what prices were when
the mortgage was assumed. The debt
paying power has become less each
year while the debt remains the same.
The value of money has increased
while the value of labor and farm pro-
duce has decreased.
jamestown Alert The business
men Of Denver petitioned Governor
Waite to permit gambling-rooms to be
reOpened. He refuses to do so, and in
his refusal alluded to the fact that
before the election the clergy of the
city, the Y. M. G. A., the w. G. Il. U.
and the prOhi5itioniSts were in league
with the worst element to defeat his
reelection" The remarks of the gov
ernor would lead one to understand
that while the religious element of
Denver is opposed to gambling, they
also OppOsd the election of himself,
who had enough courage and determi-
nation to prevent gambling, and
thereby cause the courts to enjoin
him from doing what the gamblers
did not want.
American NonconformiSt: The
AnnaniaS families are now shouting
that there is plenty of money in the
banks. The sworn reports, however,
of the best banks in the country show
that they have less than forty cents
on the dollar in cash to the amount Of
deposits subject to check. Why such
for that Celebrated family to turn
their Ingenuity and energy to bolster
up confidence, but when used to
bridge too awful chasms the strain is
too much, even for professional and
hereditary liars.
ttSburg Kansan: The banks are
great, the syndicateS are GREAT, the
corporations are great, the army with
It's banners and guns is great, con-
gress with its millionaire lobby is
great. the president with the defiant
capitalism of the world behind him,
all the other powers enumerated and
unenumerated, are great, but greater
than any one, greater than all banded
together is the wrath of an aroused
people. Beware, Oh, We political
bandits, in the presence of an awak-
ened people, your gold is dross, your
bayOnetS straw.
Peoples Voice: 1t is said on good
authority that 10000 free passes.
(Rosew water puts it 100000 were used
by the railroad companies of Ne
braSka just before the recent election,
importing Republican voters into the
state, and exporting Populists who
could be induced to leave, and yet
some people still think that the corpo-
ratiOns do not run the Republican
party.
Duluth Tribunal: Previous to the
recent election both of the old parties,
sneeringly referred to the Peoples
party as the 'third party" but at the
present juncture, which is the third
party: The Democrats are the third
party in every northern state west Of
the Mississippi, except Iowa and Cali
fornia, and the Republicans are the
third party in nearly every southern
state. The truth is that the Peoples
party is now the second party in a ma
jority of the states of this Union.
That is doing quite we'll for new
party.
