CHICAGO, Jan. 15.-On a report
that the secretary Of the treasury
had concluded to sell $4,000, ,OOC
bonds, wheat advanced 1c. to-day.
Just what might be expected
Every increase in the currency means
an increase in the price of commodi-
ties, and a decrease in the interest
on money; it means man ascending
in power and the dollar descend.
ing; it means prosperous country
and fewer millionaires.
Why should we not have as much
money per head, as France has, $50
instead Of less than IS, as we now
have; and most of that locked up in
the banks? If the mere proposition
to issue $75,OOO,OOO bonds, on which
the banks would issue $67 500, 900 bank
notes, put up, wheat cent per bushel
what would wheat be worth if we
had $50 per capita? I'D.

Another Populist Paper.

We welcome new ally;-the new
Norwegian paper, established at
Fergus Falls, called "Ihe Rodh,.qqe,-
en-" We hope they will apply the rod
literally to the plunderers of the peo-
pie, and hug the monopolies to death.
The name means the "Root Chop
per-" That is right. The great
Gethic race is naturally radical. It
believes in going to the root of
things. It favors digging up the
thistles and sowing the ground with
salt; not trimming their tops to
make them grow the faster. Sue
cess to the new paper. With the
"Rodhuggeren" and "Ugeblad" the
populist should double their vote in
Otter Tail county next fall; for they
are both able papers. There is room
for both; and we hope they will pull
together like brethern, not scratch
each others eyes out for the amuse-
ment of the common enemy. /. d.

A Kidney Disease :

Dr. Cronin was found in the CATCH
basin OF a Chicago sewer, with twen-
ty trenched gashes on his head. the
least death to nature; and an ex-
policeman, named Dan Coughlin, is
on trial for his murder. And what
40 you think is his defense? Read:
"a medical expert testified in the
Coughlin trial at Chicago Friday that
kinney disease was the. cause Of DR..
Cronin's death, and could not be in
duced to admit that his having his
brains battered out accelerated that
event. 1t is the testimony of such
TOOL doctors as this that brings the
profession into public ridicule."
1t was the kidney disease" we
presume, that stripped the clothes off
the doctor, cracked his skull, and
Jammed him into the sewer. and that
covered the Carlson cottage with
blood. Really these kinney diseases
are becoming dangerous. There is no
telling what they will do next.
But what state of conscience does
such defense indicate. Well! Prof.
talb, OF Germany, says the earth will

must come down to bedrock il they
want to sell their product. With
prison labor at 40 cents day, and no
rent to pay, they certainly ought to
make twine cheaper than outside

three dollars day, and rent besides.

instead OF Bonds.
DENVER, Col, Jan. 21, '94.
HON. IGNATIUS DONNELLY.
DEAR SIR:-Enclosed find copy of
my message to the special session of
the ninth general assembly of the
state of Colorado, dated the 10th
inst. In the call for such session,
the business submitted for the consid-
Grafton of the general assembly,
with the exception of the recommen-
dation to make all silver coins, do
nestle or foreign, containing not less
than 3714 grains fine silver, was local
or state; but l beg leave to call your
attention, as representative man
of the Omaha party to the plan to
provide that state, counties, cities,
and municipalities instead of borrow
ing money upon bonds to construct
public mprOvements, issue their
own warrants or certificates in the
shape and denomination of 81, So. S.,
$40, ETC., bills for circulation as cur
rency among the people. This plan
is perfectly feasible, and the war
rants made receivable for taxes of
the municipality issuing them would
receive credit, and drawing no inter-
est would make a vast saving in
municipal expenses. 1t is not in con-
flict with the Omaha platform-to
make money both coin and paper
bear the government stamp and be
issued by the government-bec
municipal script would not be legal
tender, except in payment ofScertain
taxes. 1t is in principal, in entire
harmony with that platform, and
would destroy that bond monopoly,
whichis now sucking the life-blood
of nearly every municipality in the
country, and has created bonded in
debtedness against the municipalities
Of the United States, in the aggre-
gate greatly in excess of the amount
IOf our national debt.
1t is of vital Importance that we
introduce the national issues of our
party into state and county politics,
for thereby we build up permanent
Organization and pave the way to
avail the constitution of the United
States, and to which as l believe, we
will ultimately have to look for de-
liverance' from the tyranny Of the
money power. The war upon city
and county warrants, which is pro.
hibitory in Colorado, and in every
state state compels their issue only
in large sums, inconvenient for busi-
ness circulation, is in the interests
of the banks, and to compel all kinds
Of business to pay toll to the money
power. Many see this clearly, so far
as national issues are concerned, but
do not in home matters. Yours truly,
DAVIS II. WAITE
The representative. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1893-1901, 1894-02-07
The Explanation.

The Farm, Stock and Home
shows by quotations in the Mark
Lane Express that at the date the
state warehouse commissioners said
in their statement the price of wheat
in Liverpool was 81 cents, in truth it
was 90, showinga profit on shipments
there Of 8.65 cents, instead of loss
OF 6.35 cents as they gave it. In
whose hire are the railroad and ware
house commissioners of this state?
Let them rise and explain.-Albert
Lea Standard.
The explanation is simple. Both
the old parties, in this state, are
owned and controlled by the corpora
tiOns and rings. To shift from one
to the other is simply to Jump out of
the frying pan into the fire. No
man can be elected governor, on eth
er of the old party tickets, until he
makes himself "sOlid'' with the rail
roads and the Wheat Ring; and when
elected he appoints the railroad COM
missioners; they get 5000 year for
doing little or nothing. and they are
not going to quarrel with the power
that gives it to them. That is hui
man nature.
And so it stands:
l. The railroads and rings select
the governor.
2. The governor selects the rail
road commissioners.
Tho rni lroa1 on,,, ~, <,,,xo
nothing to the people.
4. The railroad commissioners
rule in the interest Of the power
from which primarily come their
bread and butter.
5. The people foot all the bills and
get all the kicking Selah!
The remedy?
A new deal. A governor that does
not owe his place to the railroads but
to the people. Government by the
many, not by the few.
Observe how the St. Paul Globe is
beginning to protest already, that
the democrats must not endorse S.
M. Owen for governor. That is the
game. Divide the people by party
names that the work of plunder may
60 on.
They 60 upon the presumption
that the democrats are pack of
weak-minded, shallow, unreflecting
fools; who can be stripped naked
with the the rmOmetor 400 below zero,
without finding it out. We don't be-
lieve it. Wheat at 45 cents bushel
is enough to make any man forget
his jrejudiceS and think for himself.

ments of to-day. Unconditional re-
peal is certain now. So, at least, ev-
erybOdy on all sides of the question, is
willing to admit; and what is more,
the very thing that defeated the
managers in their efforts for COM
promise was their pusillanimous at
tempting to count out the republi-
cans who stood by repeal from first to
last. While there is no question but
that the result is due to the logic Of
the situation, no member of the sem
ate more than Washburn, helped to
bring about the triumph Of honest
money. Through thick and thin he
has stood for unconditional repeal,
and achen others talked compromise or de-
feat he alone prepared for the uictory. He
always predicted the passage of un-
conditional repeal, and even ON Sat-
urday last, when it seemed certain
thatcOmprOmiSe had carried the day,
V6shburn hesitated to accept the re-
suit. The passage of the repeal bill
will make Washburn more than ever
a leader in the senate.
There you have it; the ruin that is
upon you is due to Washburn: and
now he wants you to re-elect him un-
der the pretense that he is friend
of silver. Oh! the colossal fraud!
Remember,-if the republicans car
ry the next legislature Bill Wash
burn goes back to the senate. Talk
amounts to nothing. Pretenses and
lies amount to nothing He will

Ring, and every monopoly, trust, and
rascality in Minnesota and the whole
union. The Canadian railroads
poured out their money like water,
last time, for him; and will do it
again. Again the water closets in
the basement of the capitol will be
turned into banking houses, for the
exchange of current funds in large
quantities. Don't be fooled! A vote
for a republican for the legislature

should swear otherwise on stack of
bibles. Id.

LETTER FROM A DEMOCRACY

PINE CITY, Mimi, Jan. 9, '94.
HON. IGNATIUs DONNELLY:
DEAR SIR:-In your article on the
Supreme Court you voice the SEN
timents of every honest democrat in
the land. David Barker. in his
poems, says of'the then Supreme court
of Maine:
For those six fellows sitting there,
Have power for good or evil.
lf analyZed and underSt OOd
Would fright the very devil"
Now you populists, having a COM
mon cause with democracy. can, by
unity OF action, or merging your
cause with the democrats, bring
about the reforms you claim, with
promptitude and vigorous dispatch.
1t is simply wasting powder to try
the experiment of running third
party in Minnesota. 1t will either
go republican or democratic every
time. Inside the democratic party
all your earnest men could work with
a certainty of accomplishing at once
those objects which to a third party
will be evanescent for a long time in
the future.
Your own power of putting things
is so strong and forcible, yes and so
absolutely true, that l felt like tell
ing you so, for which ''aggression"
please pardon me. Yours truly.
JOHN F. STONE.
l take pleasure in giving this let
ter, although a private one, to the
public. 1t refers to an interview of
mine in the St. Paul Globe, about
the supreme court decision, wiping
out our state elevator. Col Stone is an
able and honest man, and one of the
foremost democrats in his section.
We want every such man to have his
say in the columns of the REPRESEN-
TATIvE; but the trouble with the
democratic party of this te,-and
[ say it in all .kindness-is, that it
is absolutely dominated, as an organ
ization, by the corporations and
rings. 1t contains tens of thousands
of as good and true men as ever lived:
but the machinery of their party is
in the hands of the common enemy
of mankind. If the democrats OF
Minnesota thought and felt just as
the peoples party men do, there
would be no trouble in those who
were united in heart and sentiment
pulling together, to reform abuses
But for men who hold different
views, to unite simply for plunder, is
shameful thing.
| Let Col. Stone, and men like him
first see whether they can take the
shackles of Plutocracy off the limbs
of their party. That is the question;
and we gravely doubt the result of
such an attempt. But to help bring
about such desirable result we will
be glad to place our columns at
the service of any honest democrat
who will make the attempt. Let
truth and righteousness prevail,
without regard to party lines.

bishop Corrigau has written a
very important letter to the editor
of the Wine aud Spirit Ga-etts,
in which be makes an authorita-
tive statement With regard to the
decision of Mgr. Satolii affecting
Roman Catholic liquor dealers.
The Archbishop's letter vas
called forth BY an editorial re-
Gently published in the Gazette.
which saws of Mgr. Satolli's de-
cision:
"Wili it be enforced in the
cities of the countryi Fully two
thirds of the retail liquor dealers
of the country are Roman Catho-
lies. Some of these are liberal
contributors to the church funds.
We appreciate fully the delicate
position in which Archbishop
iorrigan and the other Bishops
of the Catholic world in this
country are placed by the decree
of the Papal delegate. We voice
the sentiments of large majority
of the liquor dealers of this city
in Brooklyn in saying: We dare
Archbishop Corrigan to enforce
in letter and spirit the decree
against the liquor traffic just
issued by Mgr. Satolli. Let the
Archbishop do it, and watch the
consequences"
The Archbisbop's letter is in
his own handwriting In it he
says: In reply to your expressed
wish, | have the honor to say
that | loyalty accept the princi-
Piles laid down by Mgr. Satolli
both in their spirit and to the
letter. More than this, no Cath
Ollie can refuse to accept them.

what fear is in discharge of my
dnty. Please remember, how
ever, that acceptance of princl-
Piles is not to be COMPOUNDED with
the blind application of the same
on all occasions and under all
circumstances.
The editor of the Gazette |
Smith has this to say about the |
Archbishop's letter:
The answer does not entirely |
and squarely meet the issue. 1t |
is not a question of accepting
laid down by the head |
of the church, but of the courage
to carry out in letter and spirit |
the principles Just proclaimed by |
the Papal delegate in the face of
seemingly adverse public senti-
nent. The issue is: Will the
Archbishop give orders to refuse
admission to Roman Catholic
societies to any one engaged, |
either as pricipal or agent, in the
or sale of intoxicat-
ing liquors, and will he instruct
the clergy to deny the rights and
privileges of the church to liquor
dealers who sell on Sunday?
1.-The declaration of the Arch
seems to justify the con-
,lusion that in the discharge of
his duty he viii enforce this
principle, although he does not
say so in his letter in distinct
terms. Future developments will
show how far this conclusion is /
nstified."
