HORRIBLE ROBBERY.

THE PEOPLE ENTANGLED AND
THEIR PROPERTY TAKEN FROM
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES LETTER
ABOUT POTATOES.
Editor Representative:
While in conversation with a leading
wholesale merchant of ST. Paul, with
whom do business (he is a strong Repub-
lican), who had just returned from bus
mess trip through the northern part Of the
state, learned the following facts, which
| relate without comment:
At Princeton, Mimi, there is a starch
factory, doing large business with the
farmers Of that section, and there are
hundreds of farmers standing with their
teams in rows, waiting their turn to I'M
load their potatoes at six cents a bushel,
and they receive in payment due bills
at so days without interest, or an order
upon a general store, which the factory
owns, for merchandise
There is also potato buyer and ship
per who Stands in with the depot agent,
and between the starch factory and him
self they have a complete monopoly on
the business of buying and shipping po-
tatOeS. The merchants at Princeton, see
ing that the farmers could not pay their
bills or buy any goods with their leading
staple selling at six cents a bushel, made
arrangements with Minneapolis COM
mission merchant to Gomez tO3 Princeton
and buy potatoes for shipment East (po-
tatoes are selling at from 40 to so cents
per bushel in Ohio; but he could not get
any cars, and was forced TO leave. /.
To show how the railroads rob the peo-
pie: A friend of my informant man

A GREAT SAVING,

Sioux City, Iowa, Oct. 21.-The plan
now being adopted by most Of the
counties in this state of curing them
selves for their mild but incurable in
sane patients promises to effect a saw
ing in the majority of cases Of many
thousand dollars per annum. For a
long time the state insane asylums at
both independence and Clarinda have
been so badly crowded that notification
was recently sent to the various coun-
ties that all patients of long standing
must be taken away and cared for by the
respective counties themselves. The cost
OF keeping patients at the asylums is SIG
per month, but when as result Of the
order in question. the counties were COM
PEELED to take charge Of the patients them
selves it was found that $566 per month
covered the cost OF keeping them at the
county poor farms. In Woodbury. county
alone saving of $233.50 per month has
been made, not including transportation
of the patients to and from the asylums.
The difference was SO great that plans
have already been made by many of the
counties for maintaining their own hos
pitfalls. Others are expected to follow suit
in the course of the next few months and
within year the new arrangement will
probably be in operation almost all over
the state

POTATOES ARE FROZEN.

Milwaukee, Wis, Oct. pa special
from Plainfield, Waushara county, SAYS
fully 100000 bushels of potatoes have been
frozen in the ground in that section BY
the frosts of the past few nights.
Sank Center, Mimi, Oct. %. - Thou
sands Of bushels of the finest potatoes
we have ever seen produced in this coun-
try have been destroyed by the recent
heavy frosts, and it is conjectured that
before many moons potatoes will sell for
at least so cents.
Black River Falls, Wis, Oct. 23.-The
hard frost worked serious injury to the
undug potatoes, of which there are vet
hundreds of acres here
Waupaca. Wis, Oct 80. - The cold
wave brought an immense freeze Satur-
day and Sunday nights, causing big losa
to farmers who have potatoes to dig in
this section Of Wisconsin. 1t is estimated
that one-half of the potatoes in the ground
are ruined. Farmers estimate that only
about three-fourths Of the crop has been
dug.
Cumberland, Wis, Oct 23-The cold
snap froze nearly half of the enormous
potato crop in this region. amounting to
many thousands of bushels. Hundreds
of acres Of potatoes that would have yield
ed 200 to 800 bushels to the acre will not
be harvested

ARTIFICIAL MARBLE.

Thousands of tons of this mock marble
are made annuelly, and even men in the
trade can scarcely tell the difference be-
tween the real and the false article, for
the markings, or markings, go wholly
through the block, and are not merely
superficial. The basis of the whole is a
combination of limestone and chalk
which, chemically treated can be made
of any shade desired. The artificial mar

and upon this is sprinkled a sort of var
nish, consisting of sesquioxide of iron
gum and turpentine, and all manner of
marbled designs are produced when the
tUrpentine is broken up by the addition
of water.
Any pattern of marbling can be pro-
duced to order. One such pattern APP

CARLISLE ANSWERED

WHY SHOULD THE NATION REDEEM
IT'S GREENBACKs ANY MORE THAN
1T REDEEMS ITS GOLD?
Editor Representative:
In Secretary Carlisle's Boston speech.
before the Reform Club on Saturday
night, October 18th, he says: 'One of
the most unfortunate questions the peo-
pie have now to consider is whether they
can afford to adhere longer to a system
which periodically augments the public
debt for the purpose of securing gold to
be exchanged for notes which, when re-
deemed, are not retired and Cancelled, but
are reissued and put in circulation, to be
over and over again presented for re-
demption.'
Why not make those $346 00O, 900 treas
ury notes that Carlisle is talking about a
full legal tender for all debts when re-
deemed before reissuing them again?
This government, in the time of the
great rebellion, when England was buy
ing confederate bonds, furnishing money
with which one part of our people could
destroy the other part, when a MaXimil-
len was setting up monarch in Mexico
even in those dark days we floated $50
100000 of full legal tender notes. There
is no reason in justice why the S346 ,OOO,-
900 should not be issued as full legal ten
der.
Watch well the congress that meets in
December and hold each Individual mem
Der to rigid account upon this question.

These are perilous times, and l fear
war is inevitable
The Democratic party as a national
party, is dead. The Republican party
must be vanquished soon, or our republic
will go down.
Our Omaha platform is not only good
but very good and l am not in favor of
trimming 1t one iota. But the people are
not educated; however I am willing to
risk the people, l mean those who produce
all the wealth Therefore, let us have the
initiative and referendum
with this for our platform, we can
carry the election in SO, from the Atlantic
to the Pacific, and from the lakes to the
gulf.
Then, the great common people, who
produce all the wealth, could and would
adjust the finance, land and transporta-
tion questions. Yes. and the people
would also regulate those Internal trusts
and combinations that are crushing labor
and the products of labor Therefore. let
US have their initiative and referendum.

see what a virulent and aggressive
out-cropping there was, at that time,
Of men hostile to ourself. They had
"called up spirits from the vastly
Deep" And we have a shrewd sus-
picion now that this new outburst of
Stoughton, Eckford and the rest, has
been stimulated and worked up by
some chaps behind the scenes; and we
may put our finger on them before
many weeks; and when we do God help
them.
We hope this will be the last of per-
sonal defences or inside explanations.
We know they interest but few
But it is necessary that the rank and
tile should understand the hell-fire we
have gone through in our efforts to
maintain in this state newspaper
not the slave of Plutocracy. We have
had drunkards. knaves, fools, grab
ais, big devils and little devils, imps
and mosquitoes to fight. Think of
tish's assaults! Where are they nowo
Gone off into the air, like the emana-
tlons from cess-pool.
A party advances by correcting its
own mistakes; and "the end tries the
man." Let US put these troublesome
little demons behind us, and go on
to the great work we have in hand
the saving of a race and continent.
But we hope that when the next
state convention of the Peoples Par
ty Of Minnesota assemblies, in 1896, the
delegates will come together with
full knowledge Of the situation, and a
fierce determination to stamp out the
men who, while unwilling or unable
to do anything themselves for the
cause, seek only the destruction Of
those who bear from year to year and
from decade to decade the burden
and cost of the fight. We are some
times ashamed to think of what we
patiently endured last year. We
have got through with that kind of
business.

MORE GOOD TIMES.

Washburn, Wis. Special, Oct. ga
warrant was issued today for the arrest
OF A. c. Probert, president of the Bank
of WaShburn, charged with receiving
money on deposit when he knew the
bank to be insovent. The warrant was
issued on complaint of Town Treasurer
F. J. Peterson, charging Probert with
receiving on July 10 81 500 on deposit in
his bank when he knew it to be insolv-
ent. There is in the bank to the credit
Of the town $21 ,4S9, and few days ago
Mr.. Peterson made a formal demand for
the amount, but was refused. Affairs are
in quite serious condition.
An examination of the bank was made
Wednesday by State Examiner E. l. Kidd,
who found its financial condition in a
very deplOrable state The resources are
reported less than 81 500, while the exam
iners statement shows he owes over
$4,000. :,
Gothenburg, Neb., Oct. 25.-The State
bank closed it's doors today. The failure
is due to the sloWness of collections. From
the best information obtainable the de-
poSits amount to about $4,000 while the
assets are about $4,000, but part is un-
collectable
Winona, Mimi, Special, Oct 25.-The
old and well known firm Of Rheinberger
Bros. made a voluntary assignment today
for the benefit Of their creditors. George
F. Crisse, cashier of the Merchants bank,
of this city, is assignee. The latter has
filed his bond, amounting to $4,000. 1t
is understood the assets are $27, 1000, and
the liabilities will probably reach about
the same figure. The firm is one of the
first large dry goods stores established
in Winona. 1t has always carried large
stock, which will probably inventory at
a high figure.

To the Representative:
At our committee meeting of Nov. 90.
l hope we will have many leading Alliance
men who are not members of the commit
tee. We ought to lay out the work for each
county and make December month of
general Alliance work. Every member
that can speak ought to give his time
for one month and those that cannot
speak can visit Alliances. Let us have
a grand turnout at this meeting of Nov
20 in Minneapolis, SO that we can lay out
the work to make every hamlet in the
state ring. Plutocracy says all legal ten
der paper money must go and that gold
shall be the only legal tender money.
Farmers all ought to be posted as to what
this means. Now, friends let us begin to
work as we never did before, we must
sacrifice some time and money or become
slaves to this foreign power.
