The constantly increasing circulation of

is the circulation" Not who is the owner,
editor or makeup of the staff" or it's
politics, but simply, "How many thou
sand do you print and where do they go
to-" Simply this, and nothing more:
Every mail brings from twenty-five to a
hundred new names to The Representa-
tive, and what is more, to the satisfaction
of sharp advertisers, the cash accompan-
les the subscriptions. Today it might
be safely said that the circulation of The
Representative is equal to the combined
circulation of all the exclusively weekly
papers of either ST. Paul or Minneap polls.
Other weekly papers ARE ordinarily print
ed on slow fiat presses, running at the
rate of about 1000 an hour. The Repre-
sentative is printed on a Scott press, run
ming at the rate of from 5000 to 10000
per hour, an actual necessity with it in
order to catch the earliest express trains
flying to every point Of the compass on
the day of publication.
AS before intima ted, the Give" adver-
tisers of both cities are becoming aware
of all this and preparing to avail them
selves of the universal advantages Of
goods and prices to the attention of a. dis
eliminating public. Among said firms
we may mention 1.-THE Plymouth cloth
ing house, than which there is not more
reliable firm in the business.

the Northwestern Hardware Company OF

possible. Ii the election means any

republicans stole 1850 votes, and
fully 10, 900 the year Gov. McIntire

thing to the tax-eating. office holding
hangers on, but the victory (?) means
more to the people, for it begins to
look as If there were $1,000 or 10000
people in this county fearfully weary

Tuesdays election is victory for the

means that $1,000 to 10000 people in

manded that guards be placed over
the ballot-boxes, to prevent tamper-
Ing with the vote, as had been prac-

them and refused. Their husbands
and sons became enraged and a riot
was imminent, when the scoundrelly

the boxes were placed under guards

The Populists lost only in the Twin

AN EXPLANATION.

Dun'S Review makes an interesting
exhibit of what the gold organs call
1.-THE movement Of prices" but what
they had much better call "the appre-
citation of gold" Comparing the
prices of today with those Of five years
ago, they find an apparent fall of
nearly eighteen per cent. 1t is heav-
lest in the case OF food products 1882
per cent? and of woolens (23.5 per
cent?. Cotton goods have fallen 1875
and iron wares 12.4. while boots and
Shoes have risen 4.6 per cent.
A fall of this kind is normal only
when it is due to improved methods,
of production, i. G., to the general ad-
vance OF human power in the mastery
Of nature. 1t is, however, quite i'm
possible that an advance Of nearly
twenty per cent should have taken
place in the progress of industrial
power within five years, and these not
marked by single great striking in
venlion. Judging from the past, it is
safe to say that the advance in these
five years has not amounted to five
DER cent. Values, therefore, which
are the measure Of natures resistance
to mans mastery of her resources,
have not fallen five per cent, and the
apparent fall is due simply to the
altera tion which is taking place
steadily in the yardstick with which
we are measuring them. The gold
dollars has risen in value to the full
extent of this fall in prices, minus the
small amount of the fall due to i'm
provements He who Owns the dollar

THE ARMY OFFICERS KICKED AGAINST
BEING THE TOOLS OF PLUTOCRACY
AND WERE PUNISHED FOR IT.
(The Nonconformist.)
Mayor Pingree. the famous reform
er and agitator of Detroit, has caused
big Sc nsation by his new book just
published. He gives an account OF
his fight with certain corporations ia
Detroit and inciden tally discusses la
Dor troubles and economic ques lions.
The part of the book, however, which
rattles up the dry bones is the intro
ductlon: in which the author gives a
startling history of the inside work
ings of the Chicago strike. In brief,
this story is that the officers of the
regular army who were brought to
Chicago by order Of Pres ident Cleve-
land, met at one of the hotels and de-
nounced the policy of using the troops
to perpetuate wrongs and by so doing
degrade them in the eyes OF the peo-
pie. ''These officers" says Mayer
Pingree, ''did not contine themselves
TO the mere expression Of Indignation.
They denounced among themselves
the advisers of the president who had
oCuo OtlcIu Ou SUCH Il HISS on. LII Was
not the spirit of insubordin alton, but
of fighting Indignation against being
used against the defenseless and the
weak, and to bolster up wrong and
greed, which animated many regular
officers." 1t is further stated that
the matter, when reported to WASH
ington secretly, led to an order for a
court-martial to try the offending off.
GERS, but that this was reconsidered.

dent American citizenship which he
had aroused in his subordinates by his
anti-American methods. squelched the
court-martial, but one colonel was re-
tired from active service and the 9th
er officers were cowed by pressure
from Washington. AS no publica-
tlon Of these secrets was ever before
made and no mention of them what
ever occurred in the newspapers at
the time, Mayor Pingree's revelations
come like a thunderbolt in clear
sky. There ought to be pressure for
a congressional Investigation of the
facts.

THE Vanderbilt MARRIAGE.

Miss Consuelo Vanderbilt has
bought and paid for nice little duke
let with pimples on his face and a
body full of royal synthetic blood.
Consuelo is taller than the "juke' and
quite few years older, but that don
count very much when the fact is
taken into consideration that her
prostitution is voluntary and not
forced upon her as is often the case
with the poor hungry and unfortun-
ate wretch who sells her body for
bread.
Great God! Where is Consuelo's
American blood? Is it for her class
Of Americans the patriots of old bled
and died on the field Of Lexington?
is it for her class of Americans that
the farmer of the West and the cot
ton planter of the South must toll; to
support her in lasciviCus Blenheim

Bah.
What are we coming to, anyhow?
Doesn't it look as if there was a

of the water not only to rob Ameri-
cans of all they produce but to rob
them of their self-respect? ~ ss &;

POPULAR LOANS.

Some time ago we alluded to the
fact that the city of Philadelphia,
finding that the bankers and capital
lists wanted to charge the city too
high rate Of interest, concluded to
issue three per cent bond in small
denominations and sell it directly to
the people without the intervention
of brokers or agents. The plan was
magnificent success. The bonds were
quickly taken, many small investors
fetching out money which they had
hid away for years, fearing to trust it
to the banks, and putting it into city
bonds, thus restoring it to circula-
ton. M
Welearn from the Philadelphia Press
of the 18th inst, That Second popu-
lar loan has just been placed on the
market by the municipality, and has
proven as much Of success as the
first one did.
Since the first loan was issued the
New York bank reserve has been re-
duced, and there has been a rising
rate for money, and it was predicted
in some quarters that this would in
terfere with the sale of the second
loan, but Il did not. The people are.
still eager for 3 per cent bond which
they consider perfectly safe.
There is hint to all solvent NUM-
cipalities in Philadelphia's action. It
would be better for all cities if they
could place their loans at.home. Such
a policy would bring outa good deal
of idle money, and would keep the in
terest paid by the city at home.
This is moving in the direction of
the Populist camp. The small bonds
take the place of the postal savings
banks. 1t is better that the people
should owe themselves than owe for
eigners. France has set an example
for all the world to follow. 1t is
claimed that there are 100000, 900 of
gold in circulation in this country.
If this be true why did Cleveland have
to go to London to get $3.50, 900
from the Rothschilds? Is the first
statement falsehood or is Cleveland
fraud?
