Bierman "TO the Public"

For THE REPRESENTATIVE.
[ will not stop to comment on the
auditors taste, as it is his privilege
to do what he has done, although, the
case having been appealed to the su-
preme court, will say that such an
exercise is most unusual.
He claims to have acted from de-
sire to protect the "public's interest," -
By this I suppose he means that the
public are the owners of the pine
lands, and that he is fully as Jealous
as his predecessors, of whom it is we'll
known that one was declared an en-
bezzler in the sum Of over $500, 900,
and when suit was brought to recover
the statute of limita tions was plead
ed at bar and the case dismissed by
Judge Brill, of coal-combine fame.
There has been no time since that
charges have not been made against
the state auditor of collusion with
lumbermen; and in 1875, when this
same Bierman ran for auditor against
Whitcomb, these same charges were
urged upon the stump without sue
cessful refutation.
Now, the very first plea of Mr..
Bierman in extenuation and avoid
ance is, that his predecessors did so,
too. If this justifies him, would it
not be an equally good plea, had Mr..
Bierman been charged as defaulter.
to have pleaded that his predecessor
was defaulter? Had he not as much
right to assume that default and en-
bezzlement are permitted by law as
that he had right to assume that
his predecessor had complied with
the law"
He further says: "The mere fact
that the examiners return is lost. or
cannot be found in the office, is not
very conclusive evidence that the
law had not been complied with"
If this is the way Auditor Bierman
"prOtects our interests" for one be-
lieve that he has acted very feebly in
that direction, however strong the
"desire" to do so may have been. A
vigorous protection under the ample
powers made mandatory upon the
by Sec. 2, which he quoted,
would have re-examined that section.
in the interests of the public, and
not be put to the plea that the Of
fee of state auditor is run in very
careless, unmethodical, and unbusi-
ness-like manner. Such plea is ex-
tremely weak, and will do more to
convince the public of the righteous
ness of the Judgment, than anything
said by Judges Searle and Baxter.
The letters to G. A. Smith & Co.,
Jan. q, 1892, show that Bierman
knew two things, viz: That Sauntry
paid $2.1O per M. without opposing
bidders, and that he understood this
section was fair one.

somewhere. The lnd1V10ual may Dc
poor: it may be poor economy for our
people in. Minnesota to spend ten mil
lions visiting the Worlds Fair; but
the money is somewhere, etc. But
where Is that two billion of full legal
tender grccnback money that the
conspirators got congress to burn up
the best and cheapest money we ev-
er had: good in every state alike. 1t
kept the flag, it paid the soldier;
crippled as it was by the words 'ex-
cept for duties on imports and inter-
est on the public debt" it saved the
republic. This exception clause was
the sole cause Of the depreciation of
the greenbacks, as is proven by the
fact that the first sixty million, which
was issued without the exception
clause, in all the vicissitudes of four
years war never fell below par.
The trouble with the greenbacks
was, they did not pay tribute enough
to Shylock, and so they were burned
and converted into bonds that for 80
years have drawn interest to Shylock
from the wealth-producers.
Is it any wonder the people are poor?
Is it any wonder that Rice county,
nearly if not quite the banner coun-
ty of the state, is mOrtgaged to the
amount of one and one-half millions
of dollars, drawing from eight to ten
per cent, besides the Indebtedness
not in mortgages, which is as much
more-that is three millions.
Our industries are carried on with
the notes of soulless corporations Sc
cured by the very bonds created by
the burning of the greenbacks that
paid the musket-hOlder. This evi-
dence of what the banks owe draws
interest from the borrower at one
end and the bonds draw interest from
the people at the other end and are
exempted from taxation; so this
money draws interest at both ends
and in either case the interest is
greater than the increase of wealth
produced by industry.
And this is the business mans age
God help us.
And these are the men who recon-
mend to the farmers ''close applica
tion" and "the practice of rigid econ
Omy" to save them from ruin.
Long years ago one who had seer
much of the world, viewing the Coli
scum at Rome, said:
Here lies the marvel Of all human tales !;
lis but the sad rehearsal of the past
First freedom. glory. wealth, corruption
And CRsarism at last.
And history with all her volumes vast
hath but one page.
And whilst we vainly pray With souls
| upraised,
The robbers mock and jeer at our unrest
They laugh to scOrn our prayers
| Insult our tears,
And. like the young eagle
| Who hath lent his plumeS to fledge the
| dart
By which he meets his doom,
Sees his own feathers plucked to wing tht
Which foul corruption destines for his
| heart.
