OUTRAGEOUS CHARGES.

CORRESPONDENT COMPLAINS OF EX-
PENsIvE FREIGHT RATES ON TWINE.
To the Representative
I have just received the Irvine that l
ordered from you July 10, and find 1t d
No. 1, but the freight was outrageous,
being 66c per 100 lib sfrom st. Paul to
Sabin, a distance of 232 miles, and yet
the freight rates on goods shipped as
fourth class freight, such as sugar, salt,
rice, syrup. molasses, vinegar, canned
fruits and vegetables, ETC., is about IS
cents for 200 miles, As cents for 400 miles.
Does the railroad company claim that it
is any more trouble to handle binding
Irvine put up in securely tied sacks of
so pounds each than it is to handle any
of the articles above enumerated, or is
this another of their cunning schemes to
further fleece the farmers of northern
Minnesota and Dakota? The latter,
think. Well, let them go on with their
robbery. 1t only hastens the time
when the people will assert their Ameri-
can-born rights and take possession of
the roads and run them in the interest of
all the people. N. ]. BURNETT.

GOLD BUGS.

MABEN TAKES A FALL OUT OF THE
SINGLE STANDARD ADVOCATES.
To the Representative.
Mr.. Horr says that all the govern
ment did to silver was to put stamp on
the bullion and return it to the owner.
Suppose the government should merely
call for 10O,0 900 horses for the purpose of
afiixing a fraud on them, and, having
done so, should return them to the own
ers, would that increase the value of the
horses of the country? The horse argu-
ment, Mr.. Horn declared, was a fraud"
Now is that statement of Horr's true?
It seems to me that quite the reverse is
a fact If the government did with silver
Just what Horr here alleges, apprehend
no one would object providing 1t treated
gold exactly the same and actually coined
both metals free whenever presented at
the mints. To thus place both on an
equal footing, gold must be dem 1natized
and free coinage of silver instituted Is to
l. Neither must be made illegal tender"
money but must be allowed to float on
individual merits. OF course the horse
argument" is a fraud as put by Horn,
to the fraud should say all horses so
branded should possess legal tender"
qualities and must be accepted for all
debts both public and private, at $4,000
each and in addition, branded every

sleeping masses. The hotter the discus
sion and agitation the more necessity will
be seen for general reform. I realize that
the money question is vastly broader and
deeper than the mere coinage Of silver
That is one step in the right direction and
we must take one step at time. We
must go further than that, and when our
silver friends give up their party idol
airy and get out from under the dictation
OF political bosses and monopolists, they
will be willing to go further than silver
before they get to the end.
To all patriotic Americans, lovers Of
such liberty as our fathers fought for
and obtained, appeal to you to strive to
get together on neutral ground combine
your strength and put to the front in
1896 a platform demanding "FREEDOM
FROM ALL FORMS OF MONOPOLIS-
TIC RULE" and for standard bearers
take clean, trustworthy and fresh from
the people. Such party, with such
platform and such leaders, would sweep
this Republic from ocean to ocean.

ourFOrurn,

Many Of the contributions to the
Forum are too long. In the future we
musttnsist that they be made shorter.
Mostof them could be condensed into
GOO words. II this is done it will en-
able The REPRESENTATIVE to print
more and a greater variety. Here
after, the shorter letters will be
gwen preference. Write them on one
side of the paper only. Ifwritten on
Doth sides they will not be printed I'M
DER any circumstances.
Write them plainly and with ink.
do not crowd the lines closely to-
gether. A plainly written letter con-
forming to these rules will stand by far
the best chance to be printed.
Within certain proper limitations
we admit the widest liberty of thought
and expression upon the part of our
correspondents, while we do not hold
ourselves responsible for any views
which may be put forth.
The Forum, as its name implies, is a
sort of debating school, for the discus
sion Of the important questions Of the
day. We ask our correspondents to
avoid abusive personalities and to
keep clear of the shoreless and bottom
less sea of religious debate. II ED.

tirely lost? It required eight years Of
bloody, cruel and devastating war to Sc
cure it, and thousands of brave souls per-
ished in the patriotic conflict. If the an
niversary of the Fourth of July is devoted
to arousing the American people to a re-
al.zation OF their great misfortune, If
theyIwill resolve to regain their liberties
by renewing the pledge of the Fathers to
perish or to conquer, then Woods and
WOODSTOCK JAIL
may stand in the future monumental IN
famies, from which the people may go
forth as did the revolutionary heroes from
the infamous edicts of King George to re-
gain their lost liberties-and all along the
lines Of the hosts of the common people,
the victims of plutocracy and their cor
rupt agencies, should resound again the
battle cry that was heard from Lexington
to Yorktown: ''Give me liberty or give
me death!'
