J. G. Hume has struck it rich again
in his placer diggings in Hervey
Gulch. Out of one wagon load of
$50 shovels of gravel, he got $53, 30,
and $132,5O out of three loads. He
has taken out $1,000 out of this claim
since January 1st 1894. With water
this would be bonanza.
Last Sun day while the boys were
bathing in the reservoir, Ed Gilbert
waded in beyond his depth, and being
unable TO swim was fast drowning,
having gone to bottom twice, when
A. F. Elliott discovered his condition
and tried to rescue him; Gilbert being
the larger of the two, seized Elliott
with death grip and both would have
drowned had it not been for other
parties standing on the bank who
rushed in and saved them. 1t took
some time to resuscitate them.

been making tour of the mining
camps of Montana. 1t is under
stood that they are DESTROYS of pur

them down to six mile canyon, where
they took a look at the North Bo-

FALSE PROPHETS.
Two Failures.

The Democrats and Republicans
told us that all that was needed to
make good time was to repeal the
Sherman law and stop buying silver
and issuing silver certificates. Well,
that was done and the times grew
worse.
Then the Democrats said that all
that was needed to make good times
was to reduce the tariff.
Well, the tariff has been reduced for
a month past. Where are the good
times? We asked a leading democrat
ic merchant, in st. Paul, a day or two
ago, how it was. "Why," said he,
"times are worse now than they were
month ago!'
When will these fools get their eyes
open, and perceive that the demon
citation of silver, and the consequent
reduction of the world supply of mon
ey, is at the base of all the troubles
which now at1lct the whole planet?
Can they not see that the malign in
fiuence must necessarily continue and
increase until arrested by wise states

revolution:

value, mankind is falling in value.

A Missing Millionaire.

Chicago Times: The people of Chi
cago are indebted to the Evening Post
for what purports to be full a COM
plete list of the millionaires of this
city. Certainly such catalogue
ought to be reasonably correct, for the
newspaper preparing it is untiring in
its efforts to ally itself with the mil
lionaire class. From the list as pub
lished we learn that there are in
round numbers twenty-nine multimil-
liOnaires-that is, men whose wealth
ranges between $3.000.000 and $40, 000,-
000-in Chicago. Roughly speaking,
three of these owe their wealth to the
packing industry, two to general mer-
chandising. and the rest to the con-
trolling Of natural monopo.ies like
land, railroads. or cable lines. But,
hold That is perhaps too sweeping a
statement. Mr.. Joseph Medill appears
credited with $3,000,000, which GER
tainly cannot be charged to any
natural monopoly, though it may just
| ly be said to have been acquired by
hitching the Tribune wagon to mon
opoly's star. This list of twenty nine
multi-millionaires represents, accord
ing to the Evening Post, capital to
the amount of 1922, 100000
Then there are the people who have
only about 81, 0O0,000 a piece. The Post
enumerates forty-one of these. They
| include men of all occupations, from
plungers like ED" Partridge to &C.
tive business men like Michael
Cudahy. Following there come the
vulgar persons VIC have only about
81 900, 600 each. or these there are
1871. The total wealth of this little
group of POI people in Chicago thus is
estimated by the Evening Post at
$45I 100000. This estimate has very
material interest to the people of the
city in view of the fact that the asses
sors-whOm the Evening Post helped
to elect-have assessed the entire per-
sonal and real property Of individuals,
railroads. and other corporations in
Cook county at something less than
S2OO,000,O00. It really looks as if some
of the Evening Post millionaires were
getting off rather cheap. However,
the very purpose of the article is to
make amends for this, as it is oSten-
slbly designed to call public attention
to the men who will have to pay heavy
| tribute to the new income tax.
In view of this latter fact it does
seem ineXplicable that search as we
may among millionaires, bi-million-
aires, and multi-millionaires we can
find nowhere in the Evening Post the
name and estimate of the fortune of
Mr.. John r. Walsh.

Pine Land Robbery.

Senator Dedon, who is superintend-
ing the investigation into the pine
land frauds, says that the committee
now has sufficient evidence to begin
suits against lumber companies for
the recovery of 100000; that the COM
mittee's Investigations to date have
uncovered frauds aggregating $1,OOO,-
600, that from one of the two sections
from which pine was cut and the
state has already recovered $4,000.
the committee has secured evidence
showing that the company cut 9,OOO,-
600 feet, whereas they bought from
the state on the basis of $4,000: and
that after they cut and carried off the
logs they hired man to burn the
ground over and to make ga clean Job of
It," in order to Obliterate the evidence
of their steal. Here was a loss to the
state of eight and a quarter million
feet from one section. Senator DedOn
states that the committee will have a
report to make to the legislature
"that will open the eyes of the people
of the state; that it will show rotten
ness in high places in and out of pub
lie station that the people never
dreamed off," These facts and figures
show the necessity for an honest man
to fill the state auditors office. -Man-

Advantages from demonstration
Silver.
(From the Review of Re views.)

CFrom the Review of Reviews)
III. Nothing but restitution of
silver to its former coequality with
gold as a monetary metal can bring
the needed relief.
We promise ourselves the following
benign results in case of such restitu-
ton:
l. The persistent fall of general
prices would cease. the prices of all
products would again be determined
in normal way, and agriculture and
other industries would flourish anew.
2. When prices rise, both the i'm
pulse to undertake industrial enter
prises and the rate of interest also
rise, working an advantage to capital
which fully makes good any possible
diminution in the purchasing power
of money. Public income swclls, per-
hitting an advance in the salaries of
officials. A tlourishing condition of
general industry enhances the demand
Jor labor and betters the situation of
the laboring classes.
3. Were it possible to make specie
payments in silver as we'll as in gold
it would be easier for countries with
deprecated paper money to regulate
their finances. Many can never ac-
cOmplish this in any other way. Va
riatiOns in paper money values would
then no longer curse commerce: the
products of German industry would be
in vast amounts exported to silver
lands EAST Asia, Mexico and South
America), and at the same time the
ability of our agricultural population
to buy goods would be restored.
4. A period of general advance in
material prosperity would rob of all
significance the agrarian, anti-Semetic
and Socialistic- Democrat movements
of agtators, and prevent the mutual
bitterness of our political factions
from becoming, as it now threatens to
to become, more acute.
5. Instead of the separate measures
of value now actually in use by tie
worlds commerce, gold alone in some
countries and silver alone in others,
there would be single measure of
value for all mankind, that secured
through gold and silver together by
rendering invarable their values rela-
tive to one another. That this fiXity
In the relative values Of gold and sill
yer can be brought about is proved by
history, for it actually prevailed from
1903 to 1873, owing to the mintage of
both metals by France. That it is
possible by union between the chief
commercial governments to establish
practically unchanging relation in
value between silver and gold, was
unanimously recognized, after long
Investigation, by the English gold and
silver commission Of REPORT of
the German metallistS."

Hon. J. A. TaWney.

Waseca Herald: Personally we have
naught to say against Mr.. Tawney as
a candidate for congressman. Politi-
cally we consider him narrow and
small minded-one who belittles him
self by attempting to belittle others.
He goes out of his way, in his accept
ance speech, to abuse, villify and be-
little others for no other reason than
than that he differs with them politi-
cally. In his speech he said:
I'm the fall of 1892 the states of
Kansas, Colorado, North Dakota and
South Carolina undertook to expert
ment with the Populist party.
They are the only states where law
and order have not been enforced by
their executive officers. In South
Carolina Governor Tillman sacrificed
the lives of worthy citizens in fool
ish and lawlesSnesS attempting to en-
force an unconstitutional law and
turn his state into one vast civic bar
room. In Colorado, fguratively
speaking, the people have ridden in
blood UP to their brides ever since
that now famous-rather Infamous
speech of Governor Waite upon the
silver question.
People may expect such cheap trash
as the above from the hirelingS of
bondocracy who write for the daily pa
pers. but they have right to expect
something better from candidate
for reelection to Congress.
And as to Governor Waite. of
Colorado, what awful crime has he
committed?
Why, he removed from office, in the
city Of Denver, a police force which
for years had been at the head of the
gambling and saloon fraternity of
that place. These gamblers refused
to surrender their Offices and armed
all the saloon buns, gamblers and
desperadoes in the city, and detied the

Feeding Wheat to the Hogs.

The Devils Lake Inter Ocean gives
the result of an experiment in feeding
wheat to the hogs by a farmer near
that city He Soaks the wheat in wa
ter and then steamS it before feed
ing, and the result was that his hogs
put on more meat Of better quality
than they ever did on corn in the
same length of time. Hogs have aver
aged about 81 hundred live weight
there this fall. which will make the
wheat fed to them net 81 per bushel
Wheat is away below what it should
be in price. We cannot but think
that it is artiticially depressed in
price. A friend called our attention
the other day to the Chicago market
report, which showed that W lille there
were but %, 100000 bushels of real
wheat in sight, the spectators had
thrown iJ0,0JO,00O bushels onto the
market of wind-Wheat in one day to
break down the price. Talk about
over-production. This is the greatest
kind of over-production. A hanging
bee would relieve it. Imagine mil
lion or more Cinnamon coming into
the Dakotas and while the two states
yielded 100, 000 900 bushels they would
raise $50. 900, 600 and throw it upon the
market and break prices. The white
people would feel like loading their
guns and going for that Heather
Chinese" But even then the million
Cinnamon would be of some use; their
crop would help the railroad, and their
trade would build up the merchants
of the cities. But when scamp in
Chicago invents l5o.000,000 bushels of
wheat and throws it on the market
no human being is benefited.
Would it not he good plan for the
farmers Of the Northwest to lay in
supply of r:gs next springs and at har-
vest time GInounce that If they could
not get 80 Celts bushel for their
wheat the hogs should have it? This
would break the back of the combines
and the spectators. Think it over,
bretheren. OF course, ring would
at once be formed to monopolize and
break down the price Of hogs; and so
the ultimate remedy is to help the
Peoples Party take possession of gov
eminent and use it to crush the scOun-
drels and protect the honest men. 1t
can be done if the people are only in,
telligent and act together. But they
can't do it so long as they fool away
their time talking about the tariff or
the late war; and make faces at each
other while the thieves are robbing
them. /. D,

AS master capital should look well to
the welfare of the toiling millions off

duced the master to a position where
i he ate or wore clothing he would en-
joy the luxury in the sweat of his brow.
The slave owner always guarded jeal-
ously the health and comfort of his
chattels, for by so doing, his ''capital'
remained unimpaired.

on record, but the general rule found
masters always ready to feed, clothe
and properly care for their slaves
