AWFULLY SCARED.
Pulling Every String.

The last dodge Of the enemy is to
raise an outcry that Owen is going to
be elected and that the Populists will
have the Legislature, and that, consc-
quently, the business interests of the
state will be ruined. The Minneapolis
Journal, of last Friday, comes out
with two columns of interviews with
leading business men Of the twin
cities, to show that Peoples Party
victory will be followed by hard times
and scarce money.
Good Lord Can the times be any
harder, or money any scarcer than it
is now?
This is simply a scare to drive the
Democrats into the Republican party;
and it shows what awful terror is on
the G.. o. P. The game is up; the
tricksters are at the end of their rope;
and the people are about to take pos
session of their own government.
Think of those pine land robberies!
Sixty-six millions of dollars worth Of
pine stolen from the school-fund Of
the state,-from the little children
and the unborn generations of our
posterity! Can the Peoples Party do
worse than that? Could the devils
out of sheol improve on that?

The Republican Poll
Shows Owen 10000
Ahead of Nelson.
Now For a Strong Pull
and a Pull All
Together.
Let No Populist Fail
To Vote.

We have just passed through the
southern part of the state, from the
Mississippi river almost to the South
Dakota line. This is, as whole, the
most forbidding portion of the COM
monwealth for the Peoples Party. In
the eastern end, Houston, Fillmore,
Olmstcad, Dodge. Mower, etc., the
farmers as rule, are we'll to do: many
of them are out of debt: they have the
accumulated fruits of the labors of
two generations; this region seldom
suffers from drought: and the Repub-
licans tell them that they ought to be
happy because they are not starving,
like the people of South Dakota. And
yet, even in this favored section, We
find that the Peoples Party will, on
the average, double the vote of 1890.
| The farmers realize that a man with
a $50, COO farm ought not to be satisfied
! with meagrc livelihood for himself
and his family. They are figuring up
that their $50 an acre farmland ought
to pay interest at per cent on that
amount; and that when they charge
up for wages for themselves and fami-
lies, at current rates, they are simply,
as rule, getting back those wages,
with nothing for the capital invested
in their farms, houses, barns, granar-
les, horses, cattle, machinery, seed,
ETC. They see that the same amount
| of money invested in the nelghboring
bank pays an immense return; and
that the banker lives at his case, and
does not have to get up at o'clock in
the morning, (as that Alexandria Re-
publican editor suggcsted,) and
wrestle with the cows and pigs and
gather up the kindling by lantern
light. And the sweet song of the Re-
publican orators, that an American
citizen out to be happy as long as he
has enough to eat, is notat all satisfy
ing; they see that if the thieves take
| $S of their earnings and leave them 81
1
| they ought not to be content, even il
| the 81 do afford them all the necessi-
ties of a simple existence.

THE LAST DITCH!
No Hope for Nelson Save Through
Votes for Becker.
Desperate Efforts to Hold the Demo.
Gratis in Line.

Tile Republican party In Minnesota
is in the last ditch. 1t is confronted
with prospect of defeat-overwhelm I'm
ing defeat-both as to the state ticket
and the legislature. The state central
committee recognizes this fact fully
and is now directing it's last energies
to try to keep the Democrats in line
for their ticket. In this effort lies it's
only hope of success and even that is
desperate one. The Republicans
know full we'll that the loss of the
the state now means victory in Min
nesota in 1896 for the people as against
the plutocrats, monopolists and gold
bugs. Every string is being pulled to
prevent this result.
Will the Democrats fall into the
trap thus cleverly set for them? All
signs point to a negative answer.
Becker's vote can in no event pass the
10000 mark. 1t is more likely that it
will fall 10000 below that limit. The
plutocratic Democrats are going to
cast their votes for Nelson just as sure
as election day comes. The great bulk
of the rank and file of the party will
vote for Owen. This is true both in
the cities and in the country. A poll
of town in Freeborn county, which
has 80 Democratic votes, shows that
not to exceed five will stand by Becker.
So it is everywhere. The state is ablaZe
for Owen. 1t only remains for the
Peoples party to do its duty and the
victory is won.

OWEN OR NELSON /!
The Great Battle of
Ballots Is Between
These Two.
Choose We On the Sixth
Day of November
Whom Ye Will
Serve.

Either Sidney M. Owen or Knute
Nelson will be the next governor oil
Minnesota.
George L. Becker, the Democratic
candidate, has been abandoned TO his
fate.
The great battle is now on in full
force between the people on one side
and the corporations, plutocrats and
bondholders on the other.
The Republican state central com.
mittee has made complete poll OF
the state and finds that it's candidate
is 10000 votes behind.
The word has, therefore, gone out
to trade everybody for Nelson.
The Democrats who favor cOpOra.
tions and the plutocracy are going tc
cast their votes for Nelson.
The country Democrats are expect
ed to vote for Becker and thus save
the state to monopoly and corpora
tion.
The pine land ring is in the deal uI
to its neck. Nelson is their candidate
for senator.
In case of his election to that posi-
tion Dave Clough will be governor
and the pine land ring will have full
sway.
A vote for Becker is half vote fol
Nelson.
A vote for Owen is vote for re-
form,
It is vote to stop robberies of the
school fund.
It is vote to stop robberies of the
state university fund.
It is vote to bring to punishment
the men who have for years robbed
both of these funds.
It is vote for reform in all depart
ments Of the state government.
It is vote to lower taxes and stop
the accumulation of an immense state
fund to be loaned to the banks at a
low rate of interest.
1t is vote to bring corporations un-
der the control of the state.
The final day of battle is close at
hand.
A victory now means much for hu-
man progress.
A defeat means that the ring which
has so long controlled this state will
be seated in power for years to
come.
Choose We, this day, whom We will
serve!

TAKES IT ALL BACK!
The Circulation Of the Farm, Stock
and Home.
A Republican Paper Manfully
RetractS.

The St. Paul Call, owned by a rail
way magnate, and a Nelson paper in
disguise, has devoted pages recently
to vilifying S. NJ. Owen in regard to
the circulation of the Farm, Stock and
Home. The REPRESENTATIVE is in a
position to say that this matter was
fully Investigated by the Minneapolis
journal and the Minneapolis Times at
the beginning of the campaign Both
papers come to the conclusion that
there was nothing in it, and hence
have not used it. The Minneapolis
Tribune, by the Call, COM
mented on the matter. The atten.
tion of the manager of the paper was
called to the subject and on Monday
morning last it made the following
retraction:
"The Tribune yesterday in referring
to an attack which had been made
upon Farm, Stock and Home circula-
tion, stated that III. r. Owen had
sworn to false circulation. This ap-
pears to be an error. Mr.. IL. r. Owen
emphatically denies that he has ever
sworn to a circulation statement and
the Tribune has no reason to disbe-
lieve Mr.. Owens statements. He GER
tainly ought to know. Furthermore,
the Tribune has no reason to disbe-
lieye the correctness of the circulation
as published by Farm, Stock and
Home. We have examined copies of
proofs of the circulation as claimed
and instead of having any reason to
doubt, there is every reason to believe
the circulation is as claimed"
1t is safe to say that the Call will
keep on lying about it in order to save
Nelson.

LET US BURY WASHBURN.
A Republican Triumph Mean
Washburn.

This declaration of Gov. Merriam
removes the last yestige of opposition
to Senator Washburn with in his own
party, secures for him the hearty sup
port of every element, and with a Re-
publican majority in the Legislature,
practically guarantees his reelection.
Minneapolis Journal (Rep.)
That's it exactly. Every vote cast
for Republican candidate for the
Legislature is vote cast to send
Washburn back, for six years more, to
the United States Senate, to fight free
silver and represent Wall street and
the Canadian railroads. Are you
ready to do this? Vote for the Peo
pies Party legislative nominees; and If
you haze none, or their election is positively
impossible. rote for the Democratic candi-
dates; for a triangular Legislature
means the Popalists holding the balance Of
po,rer; and it means Washburn beaten.
A three-cornered Legislature cannot
possibly elect any. man who will be so
opposed to the real interests of the
whole West as Washbnrn is.
gut don't desert your own candi-
dates for the Legislature if there is a
ghost of chance tc elect them. But
remember that Republican Legisla-
ture means the return of Washburn.
Nelson and Merriam, either of whom
would be an improvement on Wash
burn, have side-tracked themselves,
by their public pledges, as the Journal
shows; and Washburn goes back to
the Senate If the Republicans have
one majority in the Legislature. See
that they don't get it. There are
many good men in the Republican
party-but we have got to bury Wash
burn. I. D.

Profound Reasoning.

5. NJ. Owen is the only candidate for
overnor on the stump who is obliged
to get up ard protest that he is not an
anarchist. There is an old proverb to
the effect that he who excuses himself
thereby accuses himself. If there
were not some reason to suppose that
Mr.. Owen leaned towards anarchy
there would be no necessity for his
denial that he is an anarchiSt.-Min-
neapolis Tribune.
This is cool. Let us illustrate it,
Suppose we were to call the writer
OF that article horse-thief We
would not do so, for we know him to
be an honest gen tleman. But suppose
we did so, and in the next issue Of the
Tribune, the said editor denied that
he was horse-thief. Then we would
come out and say:
IF there were not some reasons to
suppose that this Tribune editor ,cas
a horse-thief there would be necessity
for his denial that he is horse
thief"
In other words every man who
pleads mot guilty. convicts himself
of being guilty.
And if the Tribune editor did not
deny that he is a horsc-thief then it
follows, as a matter Of course, that he
IS horse-thiefl Unhappy wretch!
1t is like Bob Schilling's coon-trap that
"kotched him comm and kotched him
goin'." From the moment that we
charged him with being a rse-thief
he IS horse-thief, whether he de,
nies it or don't deny it. And this is
old-party logic! 1. ID.

his proposition in writing, and now
they are holding it, as a'club, over his
head, to make him stop supporting
Owen and Biermann. But observe the
admission the Journal makes. Mr..
Foote says:
I'VE have made deals with newspa-
pers, campaign after campaign in this
district, and almost invariably some
disagreement has resulted"
What are the 'deals?" The buy
ing up of newspapers to advocate men
and principles which they would not
have advocated if they had not been
bribed and corrupted. And the Jour-
nal publishes this without a single
twinge of shame. Nothing could
more clearly illustrate the bottomless
rottenness of the two old parties.

A SIGNIFICANT UTTERANCE,
From a Great Man,

Washington, D. c., Oct. 18.-Lyman
Trumbull, Of Chicago, is at the Arling-
ton, Speaking Of the talk Of his being

Mr.. Trumbull said today:

thing to say to the people and I
thought it would get to the masses
more easily if l spoke when [ did than
it would did l speak before either po-
litical party. There is spirit of un-
| rest pervading the people-a feeling of
dissatisfaction. Unless something is
done there rM be trouble. So 1 thought,
so said, and now have DONE"
This wise old gentleman-once the
friend and associate of Lincoln-has
uttered that which is in the mind of
thousand of our most Intelligent peo-
ple:-"Unless something is done there
will be trouble" What the trouble will
be no man can say; where it will come,
what shape it will assume, no person
can fOretell. But if the conditions
are not changed the pressure On hu-
manity must every day grow stronger;
the sutferings of mankind greater; the
screw will descend with constantly in
creasing force until the people can
stand it no longer and the red blood
will be squeezed out. One has only to
travel around among our western peo-
pie and study the deep lines in their
faces, and the great square fighting
jaws, to see that it is not race to be
trifled with. They love law and or
der, but when law and order brings
them nothing but wretchedness you
may look out for an explosion. You
cannot make such people peasants
without world-shaking struggle.
Something must be done or there will
be trouble. And that something is
the triumph Of the new party and the
reform of public grievances l. D.
