+ The committee resolutions reported the
following, which were adopted:
THAT we stand on the Omaha platform
in it's entirity, taking no backward step.
2That we are opposed to fusion in any
form, and we will nominate no man for
any office that does not believe in peoples
party" principles and advocate the same.
3-That we heartily indorse the course
taken by the Hon. 1gnatius Donnely, and
we denounce as false the scurrilous attacks
script.
4-That we heartily indorse the course
taken by the Farmers Alliance organ, the
Representative, and would ask every mem
Der of the Peoples party to support the
same.
that we approve of the course taken by the
american Railway Union in joining
hands with the K. of l.. and indorsng the
Omaha platform
D. Bunker then offered the following,
which was passed with a whoop:
Whereas "a lS CT Sl ,t, Of
acted a law for the erection of new state
capitol to cost 900. and in so doing
acted directly contrary to the wishes of
their constituents, and we believe that the
insinuations of corruption and Doodle
were well founded as said bill was wholly
in the interests of ST. Paul and Minneapolis
boomers of real estate and a direct
steal from the tax payers of Minnesota,
therefor, be it
Resolved, by the Peoples Party of Now
er county, in convention assembled that
we repudiate and condemn all members Of
said legislature who voted for said bill;
also the governor who gave it his approval
and signed this iniquitous steal. thus fore
ing one of the most unjust Measures upon
the people of Minnesota
Resolved, That we, a Peoples party
will support no candidate for the legisla-
ture who will not pledge himself to do all
he can for the repeal of this unjust and cor
rupt measure and be it further
Resolved, That a copy of these resolution
be read at the state convention which con-
yeneS in Minneapolis July TO- 1894
Your readers will see by the above that
the Populists Of old Mower county are not
going to approve of any more steals by a
Republican legislature and sanctioned by a
Republican governor. The old party ma
chine will have hard shedding to explain
some of the swindles that they have forced
upon the people of this state in the past
years.

THE SWEDISH EDITION
Of the Representntive-A Suggestion
ms to Another Paper.


Editor Representative:-More less has
been said in our valuable Representative
relative to the Importance of Swedish
editor. AS / have yet to learn of a Swed-
ish out and out Peoples party paper, |, of
course, would not object to a Swede Rep
resentative. We certainly could accomplish
more effectual work among our Swedish
brothers had we state organ.
But before deciding upon this I would
like to suggest that we. through a commit
tee or otherwise investigate the condition
of 'Folkets Nyheter," just issued at st.
Paul and taken up all the old subscribers
of the late Minnesota Posten' If 1 mis-
take not this new paper has Peoples party
symptoms and if the manipulators of said
"Folkets Nyheter'' would declare them
self firm on the Omaha platform and lay
aside any and all Democratic or Republican
inclinations. we could turn our Swedish
support to them, and in that way our pa
per would have several thousand subscrib-
ers to start with and an old and expert
enced editor at the mast viz: the able

III LAST.

From the breasts OF a long suffering
people, who have been sweltering for
many days with the thermometer up
in the nineties, went up on last We'd
nesday morning great sigh of relief
when they read in the morning papers
that the Senate had at last passed the
tariff bill. 1t will now go back to the
House of Representatives to see if its
father will recognize it in its changed
condition and is willing to accept it as
the exponent of the Democratic idea
of tariff reform. Undoubtedly he
will not do this and a conference
committee will be appointed to trim
it up and lop it off until it can be ac-
cepted by both houses of Congress.
While much bitter comment has
been made upon the action of the
Senate and upon the bill in the form
in which it has been given to the coun-
try, it must be said that it is infinitely
better than the present law. Itmakes
an average reduction of perhaps
twenty per cent. from the scale of
duties laid down by the Mckinley
bill and wherever it shows discrimi-
nation it is in favor of the poor. 1t
restores wool to the free list and
makes a large reduction in the duty
on wooden goods. Knives, cutlery
generally, lumber and many other
articles of daily necessary use will be
greatly cheapened to the consumer
The duties on coal and iron ore have
been materially reduced but the inter
nal revenue tax on whisky is increas-
ed from 80 cents to 81. 10. The protec-
ton of half a cent per pound which
the Sugar Trust enjoys under the
Mckinley bill is reduced to two-tenths
of a cent The income tax which to
SO many seems so entirely fair and
beneficial but which is SO harshly
criticised by Senator Hill and many
capitalists will be allowed to stand
A most meritorious feature of the bill
is the substitution of ad valorem for
specific duties. This is decided ad-
vantage, to working people for an ad
valorem duty merely increases the
price of an article in proportion to its
cost, while a specific duty adds the
same amount to the poor mans yard
fustian as the rich mans yard OF
broadcloth. To make it more plain,
duty of 80 cents a yard on goods
worth 80 cents yard would be duty
of 100 per cent while on goods of
the same class costing 50 yard the
duty would be % per cent.
When the fact is taken into consid.
GRAFTON that all changes made in the
bill by. the conference committee will
be more in the line of the lower duties
prescribed by the original Wilson bill,
the people of the country will have
good reason to thank God that the
Democratic party came into power in
1898. /

CLAYMoNT, Del, June 2.-After several
years of suffering from consumption, supern-
duced by grip, Mr.. George A. kimble passed
from the sorrows of earth to the bliss of
Heaven, on Thursday evening, June 2Sth, at
his home near Abingdon, in the first district,
leaving q wife and seven children, with many
friends to mourn his loss
Mr.. kimble was born July 10th, 1915, at
Bootbby Hill, Hartford county. During the
time General Custer was in his zenith, Mr..
kimble enlisted in the regular army and went
out on the frontier. After serving six months
he was honorably discharged and for nearly
two years engagedin blacksmithing in Topeka,
Kansas. Returning to Hartford he engaged in
farming and canning, having farmed the place
of Mr. David E. Thomas, near Darlington, Tor
several years. On December "a 1873, he was
married to Miss Phebe E. Baldwin, youngest
daughter of the late Samuel I. Baldwin, of
Level. In 1877 he moved from Hartford
to Dallas. Texas, where he engaged in farming
pursuits. The first year the great drought
and water famine ruined the crops and the
second year the great plague of grasshoppers
did the same thing. Discouraged at such out
look, he returned to Hartford in 1880 and
again took up farming, in the first district,
which, combined with canning, had been his
pursuit until his death.
Mr.. Kimble was an honest industrious man,
and good and faithful citizen Politically,
liC wa ill anu Souiu give
good reasons for his political choice. He was
member of the NJ. Z. Church, and on account
OF his intense suffering, was anxious that God
might take him home, expressing his perfect
faith in the perfect Saviour upon whose com
passionate and strong arm he leaned. His
only anxiety was in regard to the welfare of
his family, but he expressed the thought that
the God of love to whom he had committed
his all, could take care of those left behind.
Not an hour before his death he give direction
as to where the wheat should be stacked, and
the minutia of farm matters. lie also gave
the details of his funeral, choosing the bearers
aud giving complete directions about it. On
his coffin plate were the words SAT Rest" so
appropriate and beautiful. \ beautiful
wreathe of immortelles bearing the words
"Our Father" lay upon his coffin beside other
flowers. Thus passed away loved husband,
and kind loving father, but the rainbow of
promise spans the cloud and we believe that
'tAll is we'll"
"All these parting scenes shall end
Some sweet day, bye and bye,
We shall guther friend with friend
Some sweet day, bye and bye"
