WASHBURN VS.. REFORM,

On Tuesday last the Republican
legislative conventions for Hennepin
county we're held. Every one of them
endorsed w. D. Washburn for sena-
tor. The Republican county conven-
tion did the same. In the legislative
conventions the Washburn men were
SO fearful that some traitor might be
nominated that the candidates were
compelled to come forward and renew
their fealty to the head of the thiev-
ing gang of pine land despoilers. In
two instances only did candidates de-
cline to bow to the yoke that was pre-
sented to them. One of these was +.
n Stacy in the Thirtieth district.
who was incontinently tuned down by
John S. Pillsbury's forces, aided and
abetted by the Gull River Lumber
company. The other was one AL Dale,
in the Twenty-ninth district, who
openly defied the ring and was nomin-
ated. In the Thrtieth district con-
vention Jim Bradsh walked up and
took his medicine, with no idea of
keeping his word, and was defeated.
One convention passed resolu tion
against the law requiring the cost of
parks to be assessed against abutting
property. In no other convention was
any notice taken Of the strong senti-
ment in this city in favor of new
and wholly different charter from the
one under which the city government
is now conducted; the opposition to
any change in the patrol limits: the
amendment of the charter so as to
remove all doubts as to the right of
the city council. to regulate the price
Of gas, and many other reform ideas
which are advocated by the various re-
form clubs of the city. The only issue
presented by the Republicans in this
county is Washburn. The REPRE-
SENTATIVE accepts this issue. The
Peoples party will within few DAYS
present for the suffrages of the people
of Hennepin county a legislative
ticket on which every candidate will
be pledged to oppose the election of
this colossal fraud to the last. On
that issue it will confidently appeal to
the people of Hennepin county with
out a shadow of doubt as to the re-
suit.
The nomination of W. D. Washburn
as the candidate of Hennepin county
for United States senator was affected
by the most corrupt gang of pine land,
school fund and university land rob-
bers out of Jail. If the laws OF this
state were impartially executed many
of his active supporters would be lock-
ed up in the penitentiary at Saltwater
with striped suits on. They have rob-
bed the school fund of this state of
hundreds of thousands of dollars; they

Down on Riley.

A meeting of the Trades and Labor
council was held on Friday night at
Labor Temple, at which M. E. Neary
presided. Credentials were received
from the A. r. u, Custom Tailors'
union and the Electrical Workers
union. 1t was reported that the mill
ers will permit their men to partici-
pate in the Labor Day parade and will
close down if necessary.
Daniel Collins was elected marshal
in place of Frank Dorsey, and f. W..
Schmidt was elected secretary in place
VIM. Erickson, who have both resigned.
The following resolutions were ad-
opted:
Whereas, The initial number of a

organized labor, and,

so-called newspaper is G.. j. Riley, a

pecuniary benefit of the manager only.

e. 6. PoTTER.

The nomination Of e. G. Potter as
the Republican candidate for senator
in the Twentylnirfth district of Hen
nepin county is one that will be rcpu-
dated at the, polls. The people of
this city have once passed upon Mr..
Potter's qualifications and condemned
him by a large majority. He has done
nothing since that time to restore
himself to popular favor. On the con-
trary, his acts as alderman since that
election up to the time when he re-
tired from office, have served only to
intensity public feeling against him.
His signature of the ordinance repeal
ing the interurban transfer ordinance
in the absence of Mayor Winston is of
itself alone sufficient reason why he
should be defeated. There are other
reasons which will. no doubt, appear
in due time. Mr.. Potter will never be
a senator from Hennepin county. He
will save time and expense by taking
his name off the ticket, and it should
be done quickly.

Down the Bosses,

There is something rotten in the
state central committee. There is a
wrong to be righted at the fountain
head (?) of the state Democracy. In
the state convention there must be
waged fight that will mean death to
the bosses ana new life to the party
or more power for James J. Hill and
his tellites.-Luverne News, Dem.)
The Minnesota Democrats are in a
fix. The honest rank and file, to
great extent, favor the election of Mr..
Owen; but that would be sour crab
apple for bosses Doran and Jim Hill
and would never do at all. Hence the
fight is on. One set of politicians,
and the better one, favorS a very
weak nomination for governor, one
that will give Owen a good lift; but
the Hill and Doran crowd propose to
put up a man that will hold the grang-
er vote, as they term it; while the
shrewd managers are to give large
vote to the Republican nominee who
recommends ''diversitied farming"
with hay tea, for all the present ills
of the country. In the mean time, the
Prohibition party, true to it's prin-
ciples, keeps its face steadily to the
front, with Temperance and Justice
as it's hlboleth.-Waseca Herald,

j. L. KIlCHLI.

The nomination of Joseph L. Kiichli
as the Democratic candidate for sena-
tor from the Twcnty-ninth district of
Hennepin county is one that should
make every honest mans cheek man
tie with shame. A more unfit candi-
date could scarcely tie selected. Mr..
Kiichli is president of the city council.
He scured that position through one
of the most unholy alliances ever
entered into by a legislative body. 1t
is true that he did not appoint the
five rascals to the craftsmanship Of
the five committees which they now
hold, but by consenting to be such
chairman he made the combine a sue
cess. There are other reasons why
Mr.. Kiichli should not be elected. The
REPRESENTATIVE is Informed as to
what they are, but is unable to publish
them at this time. They will appear
in an action which will be COM
menced within a few days. II Mr..
Kiichli is wise he will take his name
off the ticket at once. If not he
will be defeated at the polls, as he
should be, t

A Snake in the Grass.

We are sorry to read the following,
taken from the Nye Normanden,
which paper we supposed was Popu-
list party paper. and have been recon-
mending it as such:
GAS to the result of Boen's renomin-
alton we have already expressed our
selves in No. "a of Nye Normanden. 1t
will result in defeat for the Peoples
party in the Seventh district and even
cost the state ticket numbe: S of votes.
That the whisky monopoly was so en-
tirely ignored in the platform, we are
informed, is because Boen himself had
demanded it. Mr. Boen will find out.
too late, that he cannot be elected to
Congress from the Seventh district
many times by running around with a
whisky bottle in his pocket, button
holeing the voters. If the temperance
people cannot elect their man they
can at least have their votes recorded
to show that their cause iSyet a living
one in the district. TO endorse and
vote for Boen and the platform adopt
ed on Tuesday will not do for the tenn
perance people. And it shall not hap
pen. Our votes will be recorded and
there arc.many of us in the district.
This is outrageous trcachcry. Mr..
BOen was not at the Congressional
convention, and we are sure he never
uttered word of the kind stated; and
as to his electioneering with whisky
bottle, that is another lie.

will be at work and we may expect
that some Of our papers will show the

OUR DUTY.

ing places:

Seventh Ward--Corner Cedar avenue and

Eighth Ward-14 West Twenty-sxth
street, Avery Hall
Ninth Ward-Acme Barrel Works Eigh-
teenth avenue northeast.
Tenth Ward-Twenty- ninth avenue north
and Washington
Eleventh Ward-1915 East Franklin ave-
Twelfth Ward-25s5 Twenty-sixth street
south.
Thirteenth Ward-3612 First avenue south.
They will be held at 8 D. M, and it
is understood that the delegates will
be chosen by ballot.
The conventions to which these del
egates will be chosen have a grave
duty to perform. 1t is to nominate
clean set of men for all the positions
which they choose to fill. They must
be not only Populists, but they must
Ee men who command the confidence
and respect of all honest voters in this
city without regard to party. We
need all the votes that we can get.
Especially do we need the votes and
active support of the best element in
this city. The position of the REPRE-
SENTATIVE on this subject if so we'll
known that it needs no extensive rep-
etitiOn. The duty of the convention
is plain. Republican money will be
forthcoming in large amounts to Sc
cure the election of the Republican
ticket. The REPRESENTATIVE homes
and trusts that no member of our
party will be found to be so base as to
betray it by selling out to the party
which represents all that is bad and
corrupt in politics. This paper has no
candidate for any position on the
ticket. 1t hopes that the convention
will act wisely and honestly. In that
case we can all join in the campaign
with willing hearts and hands and
carry our flag to certain victory.

Municipal Reform.

The REPRESENTATIVE, under the
editorial inspiration of w. W..
Williams, takes a hand in the Eight
ward municipal campaign and says a
good word for Frank Haywood, the
anti Flanders candidate for Republi-
can nomination for alderman. This
act of the REPRESENTATIVE, one
would naturally think, would receive
the sanction of all lovers of reform in
the Populist ranks. Particularly does
the REPRESENTATIVES, S position prove
that it is not a paper of one idea, and
that its sympathies and interests are
not confined purely to the Populist
money theory and national issues
But MesSrs. Thos. Lucas and H. B.
Martin could not stand the REPRE-
sENTATIvE's departure into the muni-
cipal arena, and have brought down
upon that paper storm of condemna-
tion. Apparently these gentlemen do
not think that it is the function of a
Popullst paper to participate in the
municipal reform movement. In this.
these gentlemen make bad mistake.
They lose an opportunity which no pa
per, whatever it's partisan affiliations,
can afford to lose. They condemn
hide bound partisanship in the So
called "Old parties,' but give a sad
example of it in their own attitude.
There is a clear line of cleavage be-
tween the Populism of Mr.. Williams
and that of MeSsrS. Lucas and Mai tin.
The latter gentlemen represent the
old regime which has been threshing
over old straw of the subtreaSury
scheme hue during the past dozen
years, without accomplishing any
thing. They have fought a fruitlesS
fight for partisan theory. Mr.. Williams
believes in giving a helping hand to
any worthy cause of reform which
shows itself. His is policy which ap-
pealS to the intelligence and sympa-
thies of the general public, and will
make friends and supporters .--Satur-
