SERIOUS CHARGES.

STATE AUDITOR DUNN ATTACKED
HIS ADMINISTRATION CRITICIZED
SENATOR ALLEN HAULED OVER
THE GOALS
To the Editor:
Hon. r. c. Dunn was elected auditor
under the belief that he was honest in
his foaming over the pine land frauds,
but his actions since election do not
prove his honesty in that direction;
true he has made some demands on a
few small lumbermen, but what about
the big fry? Mr.. Dunn has the esti-
mates of each school section, and when
sold and cut he has the amount reported
and paid for, and when marked differ
ence appears what more proof does he
want? A large lumber concern, three
years ago, bought and cut two school
sections, taking all the white pine and
leaving the Norway. Does not the law
provide for the giving of security on
purchase that the lands shall be cut
clean? For years scalers in G. F. Ash's
bailiwick sent their reports of school
logs to the Office of the lumber logs,
who could manipulate them to suit
themselves, School logs, were handled
and are still with the lumber logs stamp,
instead of the state stamp, as also pro-
vided by law
Mr.. Dunn owes nothing to the lum-
bermen of Minnesota for his election,
more especially in the northern coun-
ties of Itasca, Aitken and Carlton or st.
Louis. Yet he goes out of his way to
appoint Andrew Gowan, stakeholder
in the c.. N. Nelson log and their woods
superintendent as fire warden, he being
already such ex-offlcio, as mayor OF
Cloquet Mr.. Gowan is also supposed
to be an ardent Democrat, although it
is mystery to some folks how that
gent can continue to hoodwink the DEM
ocratic leaders in that way. They must
believe in him as Doran supports his
nominees for office. Certainly Mr.
Gowan did not support MARI for state
senator last year nor Baldwin for con-
gress. Mr.. Gowan, of course, was ap-
pointed by direction of State Senator
w P. Allen, without consulting the
needs or wishes of the old time Repub-
licans. The voters of this district will
do we'll to keep in mind Senator Aliens
actions in the last legislature. He voted
to keep lobbyists in the hall of the SEN
ate. He had pet scheme then being
engineered That after taxes had been
paid on lands for a certain number of
years they could. not be taken away
This was nothing but a lumberman's
scheme, for If the title to over one-half
of the pine lands now held by some
companies were properly examined into
it would be found that they were ac-
Quired by fraud. Claims were proved
up upon by men who never saw them
The C. N. Nelson Lumber Company sew
eral years ago lost one whole township
for fraudulent entry, and they ought to
have lost a great deal more from the
same cause.
1t is to be hoped that the people will
wake up and find better men to elect
to office than the representatives of big
lumber corporations like w. p. Allen.
More especially when they break
pledges made before election. That
gentleman pledged his word to his paid
canvassers before election. to support
and bring in a bill to have the Austria
liam ballot system at village elections,

A COMPARISON AND CONCLUSION.

To the Editor:
l have heard you called all manner
of names,-good and bad Among the
more complementary speeches, l have
seen that you have been called a man
of large comprehension, as. possessing
good judgment of mankind, and being
a philosopher. Now assuming that you
are in some sense worthy of these COM
pliments, wish to ask you a question.
l will suppose that you appoint me
as your trusted agent to negotiate your
note for five hundred thousand dollars,
payable at some future day, with USE
Now, in and about the business, l SO
manage the affair that the party taking
your paper makes on the spot, clear,
ten thousand dollars, and l know 1t.
By turn of the hand 1 could have
saved you that sum, and knew it.
Under this state of facts, would it not
be fair to assume that l pocketed q
share of the swindle on you? And II
capable of such a breach of trust, am
l to be supposed to be anyt too honest
to do it?
Comparing this supposed transaction
with the latest sale of government bonds
to the English and American gold syn
dictate, whereby several millions of dol
lars were gobbled by it, what are men
to think Of Mr.. Cleveland and his Sec
rotary of the treasury? Respectfully,
VIM. WEIGH.

OPPOSED TO THE CONFERENCE.-The
UNEQUAL DISTRIBUTION OF Ma
TIONAL CURRENCY.
To the Editor:
l am very much opposed to the idea
of conference between prominent rep
resentatives of the Populist and Prohi-
bition parties. No good can possibly
result from such conference; and If
we have any Populists who want to put
a prohibition plank in the Omaha plat
would leave the Populist Party and go
over to the Prohibition camp immedi-
ately. Coalition with the Prohibition
lists would be to the Populist Party like
the poisoned shirt of Nessus. We want
no coalition with Prohibitionists upon
any terms, and l do not think that
prominent Populists have any moral
right to prejudice the minds of the peo-
pie against the Populist Party by agree
ing to enter into a conference with Pro-
hibitionists. The. mere suggestion of
the idea has had a bad effect here, and
those P0pulists who favor it have been
has the right to make a platform for
the Peoples Party but a national con-
vention, and no one should be selected
as delegate to the next national con-
vention unless he stands upon the Oma-
ha platform and is willing to travel in
the middle of the road. We must hold
our grip and wait for the turn in the
tide. Your paper has many admirers
here. Would it not be a good plan to
keep prominently before the people the
present unequal distribution of national
bank currency? In 1874 the Southern
states had deficiency of $51 200, 900,
the Western states of $21,00O,O0O and
the Pacific states Of $80,O0O.00O; while
the six New England states had an ex-
cess over what they were entitled to of
$70,000,000: the little state of Rhode
Island having per capita of $1,000.

RIGHT TO THE POINT.

GRIN AND BEAR 1T AND "HoLLER"
HURRAH
To the Editor:
Why are there so many Republican
farmers and laborers?
What reason have they for supporting
the Republican party?
In my opinion, the main reason is,
that they possess q sort of patriotism"
which consists solely in the belief that
Uncle Sam can lick" any Of his contem-
poraries. And further, that they en-
dorse (but do not comprehend) the fol-
lowing foolish phrases: Honest money"
America for Americans" Protection of
American industries"
In you'd issue of May 8, William WEIGH
says: Default on our $500, 900 900 more
or less Of annual interest money. and
they may yet see British ironclads steam
Ing into our American seaports. demand
Ing pay at the cannon's mouth. While
the average citizen would become very
wroth, the plutocrats. trusts and monop-
olies of America would be found on the
side of their honest dollar" and their
British friends
Bosses OF the two old parties may be
substituted in the above quotation for
plutocrats, trusts and monopolies, espe-
cially those Of the G. o. P.
In the little old party country papers
OF late, one notices innumerable brief
paragraphs (they must needs be brief,
for lie stretched out will break in the
middle) which are intended to convey
the impression that there are no patriots
outside of the G. o. p; that this pluto
cratic organization alone repels "evil
foreign Influences" and that the Popu-
lists are rebels and anarchists True
patriotism is attained by striving to bet
ter the condition of the people, not only
OF ones own country but Of the entire
world, by REFRESHING vice, promoting
peace, and preventing tyrants from alb
sorbing unlimited power.
When we see the amount Of good the
Populists have accomplished, consider
ing the little power they have been per-
mitted to exercise, we must reach the
conclusion that the Peoples Party con-
tain the cream Of American patriotism.
Let us continue in the good work, and
be more vigilant than ever. Eternal
vigilance Is the price of liberty" Plu-
tocracy, however, wishes to have us
adopt the following motto: Eternal
patience is the price Of peace" that is,
grin and bear 1t and "holler" hurrah for
the American flag-and starve to death,
Will we do this? Hope not.
