OF the campaign Of 1896 in this state.
1t is to be campaign of education.
and the medium is to be THE REPRE-
SENTATIVE. We are poud of the good
standing Of our paper among the
wOrkingmen of the Capitol city, and
shall try to deserve it. 1t is our hope
that similar movement may be
started in Minneapolis. We shall do
all in our power to help it along, edi-
torially and personally.
AS it is believed the St. Paul move
ment will add 5000 or 10000 new
names TO ouf subscription list we shall
open an office in that city, in Mr. Wall
raff's store, 544 Rice street; and Mr.
Wallraff has kindly consented to act
as agent for this paper. and receive
all subscriptions and look after the
papers interests. We have according
ly added "St. Paul' to minneapolis" !"
on page one, as the place of joint pub
lication. AS the ST. Paul campaign
progresses we shall give our friends a
Capitol City Department." which
they can fill, if they desire, with mat
ters OF local interest, concerning the
contest. A great effort will also be
made to increase our advertising pat
rOnage in St. Paul.
The movement has created decid-
ed sensation among the oldparty poll
ticians, and they don't know what will
break loose next. Mr.. Wallraff deserves
great credit for inaugurating the cam
paign.
Clubs are to be organized in every
ward; and tremendous meeting will
be held to hear Mrs. Lease, in January.

ready to apply the torch?

ROBBERS, OLD AND NEW.
UNLINED POETRY.

How dear to our hearts are the old
tiOn presents them to view: the Du-
walls. Jack SheppardS, the James's and
others. and all the rough set that our
infancy knew; they held stage coaches
and wrecked railways often, they MUIR
dered their men and they stole all
their stuff, but that to-day they no
longer were ''in it" compared with
the modern, all-round, thorough
tough.
For your modern brigand no longer
is willing to rob two or three as a
week slips away. He robs all the
time and he robs all the people: he
waits not for night, but robs On all
the day. To-day It's a franchise, to-
morrow some paving; the next water
rates, and some busted up banks, and
all OF the time he is lying and stealing
in a way that Duval and the Young
erS" OutrankS,
He is no ways particular as to his
thieving; he takes anything that may
come in his way; if he can't get it now
he is perfectly willing to call for it
later or drop in and stay. He can
steal an election without any trouble;
he can pack convention and not
cause delay; he raises the dead before
resurrection, and votes men who're
living in far off Cathay.
But the stranges. things concerning
these felons, and tbs stranger than
fiction would ever dare be, is the fact
that their wickednesS never is punish
ed; in fact they all flourish like the
old green bay tree. The voters swear
deeply and use awful language, but
year after year go and vote for the
ring: and they've no one to curse
when they find themselves swind led,
they themselves are to blame, and in
this lies the sting.
The old-fashioned robber, the
Claude Duval robber, would cover his
head with the sackcloth of shame;
though he had the right cards the
latter-day boodler would beat him to
death the first round in the game

OUT IN KANSAS.

We will never join fusion
Out in Kansas.
'Tis a mockery and delusion.
Out in Kansas.
But We'll keep the highways middle
And their arguments We'll riddle,
For we play no second fiddle
Out in Kansas.
We are working for the people
Out in Kansas.
We proclaim it from the steeple,
Out in Kansas.
So we'll wager all we've got.
Even horse, and house and lot.
That the Reps. will have to trot,
Out in Kansas.
They're a tarnal thieving set
Out in Kansas;
But we're after them, you bet,
Out in Kansas.
They are discussing politics
With cobblestones and bricks.
But were up to all their tricks
Out in Kansas.
Free silver they have straddled,
Out in Kansas.
And they're acting kind o'addled,
Out in Kansas.
But We'll show you lots Of fun
When the counting has begun,
For we're straight sixteen to one,
Out in Kansas.
The Reps. are in the saddle.
Out in Kansas:
And the Dems. are on the straddle,
Out in Kansas.
But they're each so like the other,
AS a twin is like his brother,
That you can't tell which from t'other,
Out in Kansas.

CONCENTRATION OF WEALTH.

Of all writer's to decry the evil effects
of the rapid concentration of wealth into
the hands of the few none reach the point
as does Oliver Goldsmith. The following
picture drawn by him years ago may be
seen ON every hand today:
But now the souds of population fail,
No cheerful murmurs huctuate the gale,
No busy steps the grassgrown footway tread
For all the bloomy flush of life is dead.
All but you widowed solitary thing
That feebly bends beside the plashy spring.
She, wretched matron, forced, in age, for
bread
To strip the brook with mantling crosses
spread,
To pick her wintry fagot from the thorn,
To seek her nightly shade and weep till
morn.
She only left Of all the harmless train
The sad historian of the pensive plain.

REMEMBER.

That if you see anything in the
REPRESENTATIVE which appears to
you as strong argument, in favor of
Peoples party principles, don't stop
with enjoying it yourself. for that does
no particular good.-as you are already
converted but sally out and show
the paper to every Democrat and Re-
publican in your neighborhOod. Thus
Shall you spread the light of the gos-
pel, and make possible the triumph OF
your party.

THE PEOPLES HOPE.


Every day, as days go by
The poor get poorer as time doth fly:
Every hour, as hours they flee.
DOth PoVertyS grip more firm hold, see
For times get harder and harder vet.
And work is scarce and hard to get;
1he workman waits for times more
bright
But sees no glimmer of coming light.
Every week, as weeks grow old.
Doth the rich increase their store of gold ;
Evey year. as the years come round
Doth the rich man gloat DER golden
mound.
For it grows by day, it grows by night.
Ever increasing it's cleaning light,
And rich man WOrShips as rich man can
The treasures wrung from the working
man.
Every moment. as moments fly
Some poor mans child for bread doth cry;
Every space of time to pass
Sees countless mothers in sore distress;
For the lot Of the poor is hard to share,
And the poor mans burden hard to bear.
The rich corporations the prices lay,
And the people struggle the price to pay
Every law. as laws they pass.
Is framed for benefit Of richer class;
Every statute on statute book
For them is turned by hook or crook:
The law that's made the poor to restrain
The man with money will simply disdain
And yet he increases his store Of gold,
While his brother with care and toll
grows old.
Every election, and ever yet,
Sees the rich mans minion the office get;
Every vote. vote as he will,
Seems the poor mans chains to tighten
still.
But his only hope, if hope responds,
Is to vote for the man that will lose his
bonds
And not till then will the people stand
Relieved from the rich mans grasping
hand.
