Andrew Stewart, the political De-
mosothenes of the Populist party in
Redwood county, came very near be-
ing no more on Wednesday of last
week. He accompanied two car loads
of cattle to Chicago, together with the
special train having the Gillian cat
tie, in charge of Joseph Tyson.
Shortly after seven o'clock on the
morning of that day there was col
lision between the special and reg
ular, about quarter of a mile west of
Lavalle, Wisconsin. Andrew was sit
ting in the caboose, lecturing to a
crowd of admirers on the principles
of the Peoples Party at that time, and
the collision was so violent as to
throw him against the end of the ca
boose with such force as to knock him
almost unconscious. Andrew came
up smiling, however, and after Joseph
Tyson applied the proper restoratives,
and four hours were spent in straight
ening out the wreck, the train proceed
ed. The cattle brought 81 cents per
pound, good price.

THE DEATH GRIP.

From the London Spectator)
10 get rid of the Bourbons was an ex-
cellent thing. But the French revolution
matted half way. 1t crowned the edifice by
endowing the middle class, and it surren-
dered basely to Napoleon. The French have
had to endure nearly 100 years of confus-
ION before laying the ghost of that modern
Id1neriane, whose cOnQueStS are deseryedly
satirized as "Mongolian.' How long will
II take Americans to understand that a
Napoleon OF peace, though he call himself
Jay Gould or Vanderbilt, is Just as much
an embodied treason against their free in
situations as the Napoleon of war was a
treason aginst the principles of 1889? Thew

grown up silently, the methods and tactics
OF which are in deadly opposition to Ameri-

known as the monopoly ever comes TO
have full sway, it will employ the forms of
freedom to entrench itself behind the con-
stitution it is pulling down into ruin-much
as the barbar1ans in Rome built their rob-
per castles with the stones of the temples
and palaces for which they saw no other
USE To escape from the old military re-
gime was the first step on the path of free
dom. To escape from the monopoist is the
second. The power of the sword is no
longer paramount in the United States but
the power Of the purse increases every day
Upon the political revolution must follow
the social revolution-there, as in all other
countries of the civilized world, unless re-
action, in its meanest form, is to triumph
and the course of history to be reversed
But America stands in the van. 1t has at
once the more patent and the more definite
problem, for riches cannot disguise them
selves in the states, under the robes of
kings and nobles-and they are the more
unlovely because so much the less adorned.
The contest between democracy and pluto
racy is the trial Of America. In that arena

How can a man who produces no wealth
honestly have anything to exchange with
a producer for wealth? Why do wealth
producers have to keep up a class of men
who produce nothing? Why do producers
of wealth have to go to non-producers for
the privilege of working? Why dc producers
have little wealth and non-producers much
wealth? Why can not producers exchange
wealth with each other to supply their
wants? And why do they have to go to
non-producers for that privilege? Why are
producers unable to put their price on their
labor products? And how comes it that
non-producers have the power to arrange
those prices? If you can answer these sat-
isfactorily, so as to uphold the present
social system, you are a dandy.

LANDS.

The land, including all natural
sources of wealth, is the heritage of
the people, and should not be mon
opolized for speculative purposes; and
alien ownership of land should be pro-
hibited. All land now held by rail
roads and other corporations in excess
OF their actual needs, and all lands
now owned by aliens, should be re-
claimed by the government and held
for actual settlers only.
