Replying to a correspondent, Geo. A.
Gates, editor Of a religious paper published
in Minneapolis, truthfully says:
you know and 1 know that that which
constitutes danger which will lay low
our hopes for America is not the thugs and
the bummers the burglars, the thieves, the
gamblers ETC., but the danger to this ma
ton is the men who buy up the courts, who
purchase legislation, who sell their votes,
who know no honor and have no purpose
except their own personal and private in
terests. You know and l know that there
are hundreds and thousands of these men
in power in this land today in our munici-
pal governments and in our state and ma
tional legislatures. That is the danger,
not that some house will be burglarized or
somebody will be killed or some naAeless
crime committee; but there is danger to
the very nation itself.
THE dangerous classes are those who,
within the forms of law and protected by
law-indeed, who have helped make the
laws under which they carry their oper-
atons, and who are constantly making
more laws of the same sort-are able to do
what senators Of the United States during
this year. 1894, have done; who are able
to do what President MCLEOD, of Reading
Isaac L. Rice in the August Forum, name-
ly, deliberately steal 100000 and in such
a way that the law cannot touch him. Or
they are corporations, as l was told in
conversation by one Wnom L trust, only
yesterday, like the Western Union Tele-
graph Co., which put 100000 in one draft
into a state legislature TO defeat the cleo
ton to the United States senate of a man
who had the impertinence to present bill
looking toward the bringing under gov
eminent control of the electric telegraph.
when we speak of things which are dam
eerous to the nation we are simply wasting
our energy of Indignation if we detain our
selves with petty criminals who break the
common law against public morality"

PINE LANDS FRAUD.
The Theft of $1,OOO,OOO Already Dis
covered by the Committee.

The Theft of $1,OOO,OOO Already Dis
covered by the Committee.
Senator w. S. Dedon has this to say
relative to the work of the senatorial COM
mittee which is investigating frauds
against the state in the cutting of pine on
school lands:
I'VE are now ready with evidence to
begin suits against various lumber COM
panies aggregating over $500, 900. In fact, we
have been ready for some time, but there
has been a delay in getting service on some
of the parties. We have been after one Of
them for two months and have not located
him yet l have no doubt that our investi-
cations to date have uncovered frauds ex-
ceeding 100000. To do this we have spent
$1,000, of which I have used about half in
forest work. AS is known, we recovered
$4,000 from one firm on the basis of our
estimates on but two of the many sections
they cut. From one of these sections 7
have doubt they cut $1,000 900 feet. Our
scale from the stump showed 100000 and
it was badly burned. There is in the testi
mony taken by our committee the sworn
statement of a most reliable man that after
this section was cut he was told to hum
1t over and make clean Job of it, The
company had settled with the state on q
basis of 671,Q0O of 6,500,0O less than wa
cut. We will have a report to make to the
next legislature that will open the ewes Of
the people of this state. We shall not deal
in glittering generalities, but in cold ha ri
facts, every one of which our investipa
tions will substantiate 1t will show rotten
ness in high places in and out of public
station that the people have never dreamed
of. l am we'll satisfied that our committee
work will amply justify it's creation"
The representative. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1893-1901, 1894-10-10

Reimbursed the preamble and platform Of
the Omaha convention and declared for a
pronounced American system in the inter-
est of American industry and enterprise,
instead Of a continuance of the present
gambling system of European and Ameri-
can money changers
This new system must provide plan by
which any American citizen, needing money
and having property unencumbered, may go
to the source of issue of all money the
government and get money at the same
rates which has been granted to the bank
ers for the last 80 years, by system of
public improvements means must be pro-
vided where any willing worker may sell
his labor, may find employment at not less
than $3.50 per day of eight hours for Or
binary labor. The money going into circu-
lation by either of these means will get it's
inception in actual value received by So
ciety; will have its baptism of sweat, and
hence there can never be any danger of
getting too many dollars in circulation. The
business man and farmer then will no
longer be the slave to the money changer.
Interest will be reduced to the minimum
or done away with entirely, and the Amer
lean people will soon pay off its load of
debt, and every willing worker will have
hope Of living in home of his own free
from debt and surrounded by all the COM
forts and luxuries of life.
1t will not be necessary then to increase
the standing army to overawe the people,
for we will have a government strong in
the love, respect and confidence of happy,
contented and prosperous people.
May God grant that the efforts of such
noble men as you are, and the sacrifices
which they are making, may soon be re-
warded by such conditions, is the never
ending prayer of your humble servant,
FARMER DEAN.

for the manufacture Of binding Irvine
which is not expenditure, but more of a
loan, revolving fund. This leaves g. 49,
$1,000 to be expended during the fiscal years
of 1892 and 1893. ss.5-
Then take the amount appropriated in
1893. viz. $2,4e5, 1880 From this we will
subtract $S0. 1880 of deficiencies, leaving
$685., LOO to be expended during the fiscal
years of 1894 and 1896
Compare these figures and you will find
balance of S65. 057.0O in favor of the legisla-
ture Of 1891.
Again, the Journal makes the statement
that the total tax levy of 1891 was OOO36,
while that of 1893 was only O0O335 Here
the journal makes another mistake.
The Journal forgets the 2-1O of 1 mill lev
lea Tor the new state capitol, making the
total levy of 1893. O.OO355.
Now, let us see which would produce the
most money. The value Of all taxable
property In 1891 was 1886, $685. $50, and in 1892
was $637, ASS, 928, at the rate of O.OO36 would
produce for two years 81, 1885, 73; to this we
VIII add 81, 63S,22S. being the cash balance
on hand Aug. 81, 1890, making a. total of
$6,077,196 on hand and provided for in 1891
Inc value OF all taxable property in 1893
was $642.9O3,651 and in 1894 estimated at
$3.50 600; at the rate of OOO555 would pro-
duce for two years $4,5S9, S07; to this we will
ado H. 394, being the cash balance on
hand Aug. 81, 1892, making a total of
$685. O1 on hand and provided for in 1893
which is $S16.O05 in favor of the legislature
Of 1891.
You will also notice that the legislature
of 1891 appropriated $500 for roads and
bridges, while the legislature of 1898, al
though very liberal in their appropriations
for state capitol, Worlds Fair, and any
and everything asked for by the city mem
oers, could not afford to grant one dollar
to the country for roads and bridges
We will admit that the appropriations.
both In 1891. as well as 1893, were by far
too extravagant, but why charge this to
the POpul1sts? Haven't they always been
opposed to extravaganza? Look at the
appropriation bill Of 1891, as reported from
the committee on appropriation of which
l had the honor to be chairman This bill
as we thought, provided amply for all of
the institutions of the state, but the Re-
publicans and city Democrats, particularly
in the senate added hundreds of thous-
ands of dollars to the bill against our
| protest
But why should the Republicans kick
over the appropriations of 1891 now? WHY
did they not object at the time? Why did
not your governor, the Republican COVER
nor, veto those items he thought unneces-
sary? He had the power. Why did he
not use it? But no; instead of reducing
any of the amounts, he or some one, while
the bill was in the office to be typewriter,
had struggled into the same items that
never were recommended or reported by
our committee.
Republicans, Cast first the beam out of
thine own eye, and then shalt thou see
clearly to cast the mote out of thy broth
ers eye" Yours truly,
H. B. BJORGE.

NELSON A BOOR,
Ill Manners Displayed by the Repub-
1ican Candidate for Governor

Ill Manners Displayed by the Repub-
1ican Candidate for Governor
To the Editor:
l had the disappointment of hearing Gov.
Nelson speak at Bird Island on the 18th
l use the expression Disappointment for the
reason that after having a great desire to
hear one who, through association and ex-
perience in public life should have so school,
ed himself as to have kept his natural
coarse boorishness we'll in check. Instead
found those characteristics the most pre-
dominating feature of his speech
After frequently asking Populists to an
swer questions he propounded, and pausing
for reply, yet when questioned by one whose
sex he seems to have the utmost contempt
for, he flies into a passion and says IF
you are lady you will keep your mouth
Shut repeating, Il say, if you are lady
you will keep your mouth shut" The tone
of voice used was on par with the coarse
expr2 SSion used.
After the close of his speech a man in
the audience in a courteous manner asked
if he would be permitted to ask a question
Nelson asked, Are you a Populist"' The
man replied, Il came into the hall one"
Nelson said, "This is not Populist meet
ing. 1t Is a Republican meeting You can
hold a Populist meeting of your own after
wards
1 use quotation marks, as I am confident
l give the exact words used.
for Nelson to control himself sufficiently
to discuss any of the leading questions of
the day, and for a woman Populst to in
any way endeavor to get replies from him
to questions put seems to enrage him the
same as displaying red rag to a mad bull
l have yet to learn of any converts being
made to the q. o. p. cause at this meet
ing, but have heard many expressions from
men and women who heard him, of dsap-
prevail and disappointment.
Such expressions you will find the Pop
ulist to be man with "long hair and whis-
kers, wild eyed" "these men who come
among you with this new political doctrine
are on par with the lightning rod swim
dler, the patent right swindler, who take
advantage of your ignorance and swindle
you with their political nostrums;" Gov.

He also stated that the handful of ALI
ance members in the house and senate in
81 were responsible for all the extrayagant
and expensive leglsla ton of that session
which, he said, cost the state $21 900 mora
than any other legislature this state ever
had. I claim if Gov. Nelson has not fully
posted himself by looking carefully over the
house and senate journal of that session
he is unqualified to make any such state
ment to an audience. If he has looked care

pOrtunity to Reply to Charge
Copied Into the Representatives.


To the Editor:
In your issue of Sept. 10 you copy an ar
ticle from an "independent' Democratic
paper of St. Paul, the Call by name. The
gst of the article is that no later than last
May valuable school land in Itasca county
was sold at private sale Editorially in
the same issue of The Representative, you
say that there has been no denial of the
statements set forth III the article, and
that you feel justified in assuming that they
are true. They are not true. There are
newspapers in the state which. if 1 were
disposed to crafty them, would keep me
busy from now till the election shall be
over, mailing their slanderous lies. 1 eX
pect more honorable trea tment from The
Representative. The sale of state lands
at Grand Rapids, on May IS last, could I'M
der no possible circumstances have been
private. Notice was given by publication
in two newspapers in 1tasca county, during
six successive weeks, and the affidavits of
the managers of those papers are on file
in the office of the auditor of state, to the
effect that such published notice given.
And, according to the article in question,
Mr. Bowman said he knew last winter
there was going to be sale. He on
the alert. l was not present at the sale.
The county auditor had been duly au-
thorized to make it, and he being COM
paratively inexperienced, my land clerk at
tended as clerk Of the sale and read the
statutes pertaining thereto to the county
auditor. The sale was set TO open a 10 oclock
on the morning of May %. 1t did open at the
time and place specified in the legal notice
is it reasonable to suppose that the parties
interested in this sale, who knew last
winter that the sale going to be-
and who wanted that land so badly that
they were going to pay $50 in cash for it
per acre, would not only absent themselves
from a public auction at the time it was
announced to open, but fail to betray any
interest whatever in the matter al the
time. AS matter of fact, let me say here
that complaints reaching this office later on
by mail that the sale was irregular it has
not been consummated in this office and
the certificate is withheld pending the in
Vestgation, as is always done.
Four years ago l had the honor to re-
ceive the undivided support of the ALI
ance party. but of late the tongue of SLAM
der has been busily wagging, and 1 find
myself in a measure cut off from my for
friends. All that l dare hope is that
they will not too readily admit as sacred
truth that which too often may be promul-
gated for the purpose of destroying my
good name. If devotion to public interests
is thus to be acknowledged well may the
barons of plumber and greed rejoice. Re-
specially. A. BIERMANN.

plies to Gov. Nelson.
THE GOVERNORS FALSEHOODS
EXPLODED.
The So-Called Alliance Legislature
of 1891 Defended-Read and
Hand to Your Neighbor.

The Republican party must be sorely
pressed when it's candidate for governor is
compelled to resort to such low pettifog-
ging as to attempt to saddle the RESPONSE
plllty for the extravaganza of the legfsla-
ture OF 1891 upon the Alliance members. If
because we helped the Democrats organize
the senate in 1891, that made it
an Alliance legislature, regardless of
the fact that we had less than one
fourth of the membership, then it
might as well be argued that the session of
1888 was an Alliance legislature, as that
was also organized by the aid of the ALI
ance members. The senate of 1891 and 1893
was the same, and consisted of 25 Repub-
licans, II Democrats and IL Alliance mem
bers Two Democratic members were elect
ed by the aid Of Alliance votes, but de-
clared themselves to be Democrats In the
mouse the Alliance had so members, and the
balance was about equally divided between
