House Breaking and Larceny.


Charles F. Jones, Esq, and family re-
turned from New York Tuesday evening
and were very much surprised upon enter
ing their residence on Middle Street, south
side, to find that a burglar had entered
the house during their absence and left
things in a much confused condition.
Upon looking around, it was ascer-
tanned that the thieves had made big
haul, including an expensive seal cloak,
lace curtains, bedding, dresses and other
clothing, iewelry, plate. etc, 10 the
value of about $500. They also took
from drawers and closets quantity of
bedclothes, clothing and other house
hold articles and piled them up in a
room, but did not take them away.
They were either frightened away before
securing them, or intended to come
again after the articles.
Ii is not known just when the burg
larry occurred, as Mr.. Jones had been abb
sent a week and Mrs. Jones and the
children had been away several weeks,
but it is supposed it occurred not earlier
than Saturday night last, and several
suspicious individuals were seen in that
vicinity at that time.
State Detective J. H. Mitchell is at
work on the case and hopes to get on the
track of the culprits. Mr.. Jones offers
a reward of $50 for information that will
lead to detection of the criminals and re-
coyerY Of the goods.

Not one Of this ShylOck class of cor
mOrants can be found who did not
aid and abet the destruction of silver
as ultimate redemption money.
Their loans generally were made to
you when wheat on the farm was
worth dollar bushel; subsequently
they deliberately and clandestinely
destroyed half the redemption money
Of the world. thereby doubling your
debts and at the same time, reducing
the price Of your products one-half.
Prosperity is impossible under such
CONDITIONS, and you may take it home

that, SO long as wheat Sc Is for fifty
cents per bushel, and Shylock de-
mands eight and ten per cent interest

A NOBLE LETTER.

Editor Representative:
Enclosed please find $1.00 to renew my
subscription to your most valuable pa
per, The Representative. We would
rather loose hundred dollars than to
hear of your paper being stranded. No,
kind friend. we trust you will never relax
in well doing. May God give you strength
to go forward. and we think there are
men enough, like "Old JONES'" left in the
Northwest to take care Of the financial
part of the paper. For instance, you are
at liberty to draw on us at any time for
any amount from one dollar to one hund-
red, for the purpose of keeping The Rep
resentative on its feet. The people Of
the Northwest must and do look upon
Ignatius Donnelly as their Moses, to lead
them out of the wilderness. Long life
to our noble standard bearer. GOD
speed the good work, that the people may
be able to throw off the yoke Of the
money power. Yours truly,
w. H. JONES.
For short "Old Jones'"
eve are many times obliged to Brother
Jones for his kind-his very kind-offer;
but we will not draw on him. If he can
help to spread the paper in his vicinity
he will help the cause. At eight cents

PREPARING FOR WAR.

Just now there is a bright military dis
play at Cornwall-on-the--H Hudson. 1t is a
camp of the boys military organizations
of the Baptist church of New York City,
and is in charge of Gen. A c. Kenyon,
who, we are told is "a big hearted, whole
souled man, who knows. how to handle
boys The Metropolitan press gives
glowing accounts of the camp, the strict
drill, plenty to eat, and the popularity of
the scheme that has even induced some
fine contributions from wealthy people in
Europe.
There are said to be $4,000 boys under
military training in the Baptist churches,
and all the church military organizations
are allowed to send detachments to this
camp "for drill and discipline, without re-
gard to church denomination" if the
church will pay a small per capita for
their care and food while in camp.
For years the military training in SOL
der companies in the Baptist churches in
New York City, has been confined al
most exclusively to the children of
wealthy people; but now it is open to all
to join the organizations, so the sons of
the rich may now touch elbows with the
boys who sell papers and black boots
In other words the wealthy people give
their boys a dazzling appearance, SO the
poor children would be attracted and
come in to form the rank and file, while
the boys who have been longer under
drill may now hold the offices. When we
recall the fact that Deacon John d.
Rockefeller the head of the Standard COM
bnation of great trusts, is a lea ing light
in the Baptist Sunday schools of Cleve-
land, and that the rich are backing this
move, AMI Europeans contribute money"
we can believe that this plan of making
soldiers is to become popular, for the
papers say it will soon be adopted in all
the large cities. The two features we cali
attention to are: THE efforts to put this
nation on a military basis with the con-
troll in the hands of the rich and the
power of the church and the side it is TAX
ing. And how many boys are training to
shoot their fathers and brothers? How
long before the Sunday-school lesson will
include the theory and drill in ''gun Chris
tianity' or Christ in the bullet ?''-Inde-
pen dent Reform press Pueblo, Col.

APPROVED.

The leading Reform paper of Iowa, the
Des Moines Farmers Tribune favors the
Representatives plan Of getting reformers
together.
The Minneapolis Representative, Hon. Ig-
natiuS DOnnelly editor, expresses views
similar to those repeatedly expressed by
the Tribune, relative to a union of forces,
that is, to make the Initiative and Ref
erendum the basis, with perhaps the mon
ey question included, and the Silver
Knight, Senator Stewart, editor, comedies
with DOnnelly. The Denver Road has also
signified the opinion that that is the only
feasible basis. So have also many other
leading papers and politicians. 1t really
looks as though that is to be the program
and if so and all antiWall street patriots
will get right at it and work up the move
ment along the line we can sweep the coun-
try from shore to shore and from Canada
to the Gulf next year. Let the agitation
go on, victory we must have and before
victory comes we must first have a union
of forces.

occurs to me that in view of the political

time is most Opportune to organize
Honest Money Leagues" from center to

coin money and regulate the value there
of, hence all banks of issue shall be abol

sact the business Of the country on a
cash basis.
g. The unlimited coinage of silver and
gold at the ratio Of IS to l and the issue of
sufficient greenbacks to provide the ne
cessary volume Of money.

in purchasing power to any other dollar,

EVILS OF THE GOLD STANDARD

SOME GENERAL REFLECTIONS.
Editor Representatives:
When the mariner by storms has been
tossed upon unknown seas for many days
he wisely avails himself of the first oppor-
tunoty to get his latitude and learn how
far he has drifted from his right course
The American people have been drift
ing upon unknown and dangerous seas
amid political storms and they should
initiate the prudent mariner and ascer-
tain as far as possible how far they have
drifted from the true course of political
wisdom.
The Industrial people of this govern
ment have reached a period of political
crises that demands the enlistment of
all good citizens. They alre called on to
take part in a political war between hui
man rights and the absolute monarch

eXtortion.
1t is a self-evident truth, drawn from
conditions and records. facts so glazing
In their character that those who are
seeking the truth and will embrace it
when found, must conclude that his coun-
try is in the power of a merciless money
plutocracy that has diverted the govern
ment from it's true mission and wrecked
the industries OF our nation
The political battle of ballots in SO is
to decide q vital question:-Wil the peo-
pie control this government. or will it fall
under the dominion of the power of

The greatest menace now to the finan-

under a gold standard.
It is a system that will increase the
wealth of the Money Barons but will
pauperize the American people.
Behind the battlements Of this single
gold standard we see the gold-barons of
Great Britain. Behind it we see the
wealth and power of the banks and ali
the political influences that money can
buy. They whip into line all the news

moneyed aristocracy. 1t has behind it

ORGANIZE TO HANDLE THE WHEAT
CROP.
Notice is hereby given that there
will be a meeting Of the farmers of
Polk county, at Crookston, Minnesota,
on the Both day Of december, 1895, at

forming Farmers Association, and
in Connection Herewith make ar
rangements for handling and shipping
directly by the farmers the grain
grown In the county, another year, in
a manner to be decided upon at said
meeting. We would recommend that
each town send at least two dele

And twelve other leading farmers
whose names will be given later.
This is very important move
ment, and Polk county, is the one to
begin it. A small sum from each
farmer in Minnesota would give
enough to build an elevator in Du-
luth, to which farmers could ship
their grain, and thus get out of the
clutches of the Ring. The Legisla-
ture of 1898 passed a law to build such
an elevator, out Of the farmers own
money, collected from the inspection
of their wheat; but the Republican
Supreme Court wiped it out, and left
the Rings in full control, and now the
whole Northwest is in a ferment over
robberies in weights, grades and
prices.
We hope every county in the state
will hold meeting, similar to the
Polk county one: and then all as
semble at Minneapolis, Jan. Nth, at
the time Of the State Farmers ALI
ance convention. A $4,000 elevator
would be sufficient to begin with; and
this could be built by so farmers CIV
ing 81, 900 each,or 500 giving 800 each,
or 100000 giving 25 cents each. The
whole thing is possible, even in these
hard times.
Take hold, friends, and see what can
be dOne.-ED. REP.
