The last number of the Indepen-
dent contained whole page OF slusl,
about how the people had been
robbed by the republican state board
OF school managers. The Indepen-
dent and other populist stump
orators are behind the times as usual.
When the populists raised the cry OF
fraud in this matter Governor Short
ridge was asked to appoint an inves-
tigating committee to look this mat
ter up and he did SO, appointing a
committee of populists. That COM
mittee, after thorough investigation,
reported that the populist roorbach
turned out to be purely business
matter and that the republican board
of school managers had simply made
business investment in purchasing
school bonds and exonerated them
from the cry of fraud and robbery.
That is how the populist cry of fraud
and corruption falls fiat every time.
Now don't take our word for it, but
write to Bismarck for a report ofthis
committee and see for yourselves.
Griggs courier. (Cooperstown, Griggs Co., Dak. [N.D.]) 1885-1902, 1894-10-26

When you come to cast your bal
lot week from next Tuesday see to
it that you put an x before the names
OF F. G. Enger, Nicolai Swenson and
R. c. Cooper, the republican nomi-
nees for the legislature. We do not
promise that any of these gentlemen
will set the Missouri river on fire If
they get to Bismarck, neither do we
expect them to run the whole shoot
ing match but we do know that if the
people elect them, that they will all
know enough to vote for or against
any measure that will come up before
the legislature. What we want is
somebody to occupy chairs in our
legislative halls who know enough to
vote.

JOSEPH NJ. BARTHOLOMEW.

Judge Bartholomew, the Republican
Nominee for judge of the supreme court,
y one of those men whose success in life
lnd!vidual efforts. He is a representa-
t1sr Gen. Joseph Bartholomew, settled
~ the territory Of Indiana, opposite
i.hsre Louisville, Ky, now stands. in
sne early days Of the present century,
ana was present with Gen. Harrison, and
"a command of the Indiana militia at the
pattle of Tppacanoe, in 1911.
The Judge was born in Mclean county,
ILL.,, in 1843, but in 1913, his parents re-
moved to Columbia county, Wis. where
BIZ childhood and youth were spent. He
grew up on a farm, and in the Stationed
circumstances incident to a frontier life.
The years of his boyhood were divided
potween work on the farm and an effort
TO obtain such education as the schools
Sf his time and locality afforded. In
1SV2, when nineteen years of age, and at
tho end of the second year Of a universi-
~ course, he enlisted as privated infan-
tfy soldier in the Union army. He was in
active service until the close of the war,
and. passed through all the intermediate
grades: and was mustered out in the fall
OF 1865, with the rank Of captain. His
hhblemished army record stands to his
everlasting credit. He is now an active
member Of the G. A. r. In politics he
pas always been q straight, unswerving
Republican. His first vote was cast for
the Lincoln electors in 1864. in a cart
ridge box used for q ballot box.
He was admitted to the bar in 1860 at
Dubuque, Iowa, his Office reading having
/, been completed in the Office Of Senator
Allison of that state. He at once entered
upon an active and successful practice,
which he prosecuted without intermis-
sso1 until he went upon the bench. He
EQine to Dakota Territory at the time
os the capital removal in 1883, with the
y Expectations of locating at the new capi-
fal. He, however, located at La Moure,
"a La Moure county, then q new and
promising town. The judge Mt once took
rank. among the lealing lawyers in his
district. He was the first to point out
the ineQuitable and insufficient manner in
which the property Of railroad corpora
lions was being taxed under the territori-
q laws, and under his advice his county
took the steps which forced the now cele-
Pyuted railroad tax litigation which was
peguh In 1883, and is still pending in the
United States supreme court. The condi-
ton Of the taxing law being thus clearly
brought to the attention of the territorial
legislators, and subsequently of the con-
ptitutional convention, resulted in changes
in the laws which added hundreds of
thousands of dollars to the revenues of
tie territory and state.
At the first Republican state conven-
ton for North Dakota, after a spirited
contest with Hon. johnson Nickeus, of
Etutsman county, Judge Bartholomew
was nominated as one Of the candidates

STATE OF NORTH DAKOTA,

STATE OF NORTH DAKOTA,
COUNTY oFGR1GGs.
Halvor Arestad, being duly sworn
says: That he is auditor Of Griggs
county, North Dakota. That the
records of his Office show that the last
state board of equalization reduced
the assessed valuation of the branch
lines or railroads $500 per mile; that
under previous assessments the
branch lines were assessed at $500
per mile; that the present board has
reduced this to $4,000 per mile.

Subscribed and sworn to before
me this 12th day of October, A. d.,
1894. OSCAR D. PURINroN,
(sEAL) Clerk District Court.
Governor Shortridge, Hon. w. T.
McCulloch and other populist
speakers have been telling our
farmers about how the REFORM
administration has been working to
tighten the burden of taxation for the
farmer at the expense of the corpo-
rations. Two years ago they said
that the republicans did not tax the
railroads enough and that if they got
into power they would raise the as
sessments Of the railroads and lessen
the assessments on farm lands. They
have had the power and the way they
have instituted their boasted reform
is to raise the assessment from 10 to
g5 per cent on real estate in several
counties in the state and have
lowered the assessment on the
branch lines in the state $500 pei
mile-lessening the amount of rail-
road taxation in the state of North
Nakota S679,5oo, and in Griggs
county, where we have only little
over fifteen miles of branch road
1880. Neither the governor nor
Mr.. McCulloch have tried to explain
why this reform board of equaliza-
tion-popul.sts-done this, and they
have not any explanation to make.
The above affidavit is made by our
populist county auditor, duly sworn
to, and cannot be disputed, as the
facts are taken from the records Of
his office. Here is a nut for our
populist friends to crack: Why did
the pepulist administration raise the
assessment on farm lands and lower
the assessment $500 per mile. ION the
railroads?

CAMPAIGN FACTS
FOR FARMERS.

10 borrow money was not the only
power lodged with congress in rela-
ton to this moneyed question. Il
was given the power "to coin money,
regulate the value thereof, and Of
foreign coins" Now, is "to coin
money" the same as to manufacture
it? A coin is piece of metal on
which are stamped certain characters,
Paper is not coin even though cer-
tain characters be stamped upon it.
Cloth is not coin even though it be
stamped with various devices. Coin
is metal iron, silver, or gold. "To
coin" is to stamp. Ito coin money"
is to stamp piece of metal and so
give to it the functions of money. A
piece of metal is converted into
money by coinage. Now the point
to be noted is this, that the trainers
of the constitution, in giving power
to the government to coin money.
lad no thought, or intention to put
it within the power of it to flood the
country with money that was not
without some intrinsic value. The
money contemplated by the consti-
tuition was metal money and that
metal was to be either, or beth silver
and gold as the chief money coins of
the country. Moreover it was not
the intention of the trainers of the
constitution to put fictitious value
to the money coins. The sole pur-
pose of the stamp was to certify to
the real value of the coin, gold or
silver, In the money piece. The
stamp on the money coin says that
there is SO much gold or silver, as
the case might be, in this money
piece, and it is Of such and such a
quality. This is the only sense in
which the government can manufac.
ture money, but this is not the popu-
listic sense of the use of the term. I
have fifty dollar bill; but its only
value to-day is that of curiosity.
1t was issued by the southern con-
federacy. Once it could have been.
converted into fifty dollar coin, but
it cannot be now; because the credit
that was once back of it is gone for
ever, and it never had intrinsic value.
Had it been gold or silver piece it
would be in circulation to-day not
tor the stamp upon it, but for the
grains of gold or silver in it. Until
by its fiat the government can manu-
facture values and credit it can never
manufacture money. We believe we
are stating facts which my farmer
brothers do we'll to consider. If you
want money that is money bring
your gold and silver to the mints and
get it coined. If you want a gov
ernment of first class credit push the
industries of the country and create
capital. If you want fiat money get
the paper issues of the southern con-
federacy, there is heaps of it, and ex-
pertinent with it.

Last week Hon. w. T. McCulloch
was making a speech in Hope and was
telling very pathetic story about how
he begged and prayed for the appoint
ment Of widows son as clerk, but
those rascally republicans would not
appoint him. About this time some
body in the audience yelled: "How
about Sinclair?" The subject was
