Cock and Bull Nonsense.

One of the Minneapolis daily papers
has long astrological article to de-
monstrate that Harry Hayward was
foreordained, by the position Of the
planets, at the time of his birth, to be
a liar, a scoundrel and murderer.
What follows? That it would be
very wrong to hang nice young man,
OF wealthy family, for the position of
Saturn, and Venus, and Mars and the
rest Of the ancient disreputables, at
the time of his birth. Ergo, his pun
ishment should be committed to i'm.
prisonment for life, or he should be
turned loose. as a helpless victim of the
injustice Of the stars.
Funny no one eyer thought of that

To the Editor
The course taken by THE REPRE-
SENTATIVE in the great battle being
fought between the laboring classes
and the monied ariStOcratS of our
country in alliance with the Earrings
and Rothschilds, has the unqualified
Endorsement of our Montana people;
but the course pursued by the leading
dailieS of the Twin Cities, is likely to
divert trade in other directions. AL
ready boycott is strongly urged
among our people, and some of our
merchants are talking of opening con-
nections with Seattle, Portland and
other coast towns, leaving St. Paul
and Minneapolis to get their trade
from those sections Of country (Wall
streetD whose interests they seem de-
termined to advocate to the detri-
ment of the great Northwest.
GEO. w. SWEET.
When we were out in Montana, in
1898, we entered wholesale provision
store and observed great piles of sacks
of flour. We looked for some of our
familiar Minnesota brands. but could
find none. There was flour from all
parts of the West except Minnesota.
We asked the proprietor the reason for
this. He replied:
"We have no dealings with Mime
sofa that we can possibly avoid"
whats the trouble?" we asked.
"The merchants of Minnea polls and
St. Paul" he replied, "have done their
very worst to destroy the prosperity
of Montana, by advocating through
their newspapers, chambers of COM
merce and boards of trade, the closing
of the minis to the free coinage Of
silver: they have succeeded; our silver
mines are closed and 100000 Of our
people have been forced to emigrate.
Why should we help our enemies"
Minneapolis and St. Paul are today
sitting in sack-cloth and ashes. 1t
would seem that man who had as
much brains as half-hatched chick
could perceive that Minnesotas de-
velOpment and success, the market for
her flour, provisions, manufactures,
must largely depend upon the success
of the vast region west of us-Mon-
tana, Idaho, etc. But instead of try
ing to promote the prosperity Of that
section we have seen our alleged bust
ness men. with mosquito heads and
parrot tongues, at the dictation of the
banks, bowling for the policies of Wall
street and the Rothsc hilds. What
will the average merchant of Minne-
sofa ever get out of Wall street and
the Rothschilds? Not enough to but
ter the hind leg Of a chinch bug! And
yet the sublime, unlimited, unmiti-
gated asses keep up their braying for
sound" money;-that means, we sup
pose money that will make them roar.
as they see the little they have scat
tered to the winds.
We publish the foregoing letter with
pleasure. We hope the Montana peo-
pie will inaugurate their boycott. The
Bible says that Though thou brayest
fool in a mortar yet will the foolish
ness not depart from him." That may
be true, but it is satisfaction to see
the fool reduced to 1mpalpable dust.
The average business man of the
Twin cities has hardly got enough en-
ergy left to say-"crank!" Like Mac
beth's amen it sticks in his throat.
But he looks over his Ledger and soft
ly whispers-"Geewh

1t is not too late to congratulate

We do not believe in personal abuse
OF our public men; and we have long
been in doubt whether Grover Cleve-
land was a shallow-patted idiot or a
corrupt money-grabber. The silly
platitudes he puts forth would lead
to the former conclusion; while the
vast fortune he has accumulated
points to the latter belief. But we
don't want to charge him with drunk
enness; and we quote the foregoing
simply because of the picturesque Ian
guage with which it concludes. It is
original.
