ANOTHER SAD STORY.
so IT GOES.

St. Cloud, Mimi. Dec. 17.-Henry G..
Waite, today made an assignment to
John l.. Bold, Cold Spring, Mimi, for
the benefit Of his creditors. Waite is
one Of the oldest business men in the
community. The assignment was
forced by an action commenced by
Lucas Kells as assignee of the n. p.
Clarke company, who sued to recover
$22, 900, and asked for the appointment
of a receiver. Clark's claim is one of
long standing and is denied by Waite,
who states that he does not owe the
insolvent firm anything. Liabilities
outside of the Clarke claim are said
to be less than $4,000 Assets are
ample in the way Of real estate scat
tered through the state, but the value
at this time is problematical.
We have known Mr.. Waite for
thirty odd years. He is one of the
sOundest-headed men in the state:-a
representative of that strong, Sc nsible.
German stock, which thrives under
the most adverse circumstances. We
are surprised to hear of his failure: -
he is the last man in the state we
should expect to hear such news from.
But he is another victim of mono
metallism. The value of his real
estate, scattered through the state,

THE PLACE OF THE CONTEN-
ITON.

The Penny Press: The effort to
bring the Populist National conven-
ton to Minneapolis has "died a
bornin''', and as Ignatius, the sage of
Nininger, opposed the movement, he
may consider himself Endorsed. A
meeting was to have been held at the
Commercial Club last night, but at
the time stated the only member of
the committee present was William
Buffers, and as a cOrporaPS guard
could not be mus tered the subject was
abandoned.
We were not opposed to Minneapolis
having the convention, but we consid-
cred the idea impracticable. For in
stance, when the National Executive
Committee of the Peoples Party voted,
the other day, by letter, as to where
the committee would meet, we cast
our ballot for Chicago; but there was
only one other vote for that city, and
the large majority were in favor of ST.
Louis: and so the committee will as
semble at the Lindell Hotel, st. Louis,
on the 18th of January, to fix the time
and place for the N ational Convention
of 1896. The same feeling will control
the committee as to coming so far
north as Minnesota to hold the Ma
tiOnal Convention. It would be rather
hard on the poor delegate from Texas,
South Carolina, Florida, ETC., to travel
several hundred miles beyond the CEN
ter OF the country to attend Peoples
Party convention in Minneapolis. It
would be like our delegates going to
New Orleans or San Francisco. Per-
sonally, nothing would crafty us more
than to have the convention in Min.
neapolis or St. Paul; but it is not a
question of what will best suit us, but
what will best suit the Populists of
the whole country.
We never pander to a local senti-
ment which runs counter to good
sense.

OUR FORUM.

Our Forum letters add very much
to the strength of this paper. The
sceptical may turn away from the ut
terances of the editor. 'Oh," one
will say,-"that chap wants an office.'
And fellow at his elbow will suggest,
-"Why I heard rumor he killed his
grandmother" And another adds
"Our banker, who is kindly lending
money at 80 per cent per annum, says
he is very bad man"
But even the sceptical cannot
ignore the opinions of so many hun
dred plain men-farmers and me-
chanics-who speak from experience,
not theory; and give facts for their
faith.
Let every correspondent condense
what he has to say. If you. boil a

4 SUGGESTION.

l would be good plan for the
Farmers local alliances, after they
have held their meetings, and elected
their delegates to the State Farmers
Alliance convention, Of January 18th,
1896, to adjourn,-and then reassem-
bic as Peoples Party men, and organ
ize Peoples Party local league, by
the election Of president, vice-presi-
dent, secretary and treasurer; and
then elect a delegate to the Peoples
Party league meeting at Minneapolis,
the same date, January IA; and make
out credentials for him. The same
party, if desired, could represent the
local Alliance and the league. Be
careful not to merge the Alliance in
to the League; for one is a non-parti-
san farmers society, and the other is
political organization. The farm
ers need representative and defend
er Of their especial interests, as
against all the world, and the only
society that pretends to fill that place
is the Farmers Alliance.

A GOOD IDEA.

Take notice of the meeting of the
Central Committee of the Peoples
Party Of the First Congressional Dis
trict Of Minnesota, at a m. Jan. 18th,
1896. at the Brunswick Hotel, Mime
apolis. This is good plan. All the
other district chairmen would do
we'll to initiate this example. 1t will
save the expense of travel to local
meetings, in the several districts.
BY meeting at 8 a. M, land the farm
ers are early risers), they can have
two hours for organization before the
State Alliance meets at 10 a. m. Let
the chairman of each district COM
mittee send out postal cards, at once,
to the mem bers Of the committee, to
meet at the same time at the Bruins
wick. Separate rooms can be pro-
cured there or elsewhere.

ABOUT POSTMASTERS.

We find that some postmasters are
in the habit Of deducting a commits
sion on money sent through their Of
fees, where they had nothing to do
with securing the subscription, but
simply performed a duty for which
they were paid by uncle Sam"
This is not fair. II a postmaster can
vases the patrons of his Office, or 9TH
ers, and solicits them to subscribe. and
they do so, we will cheerfully pay him
reasonable fee for his trouble and
labor; but he should not levy tribute
upon money which simply passes
through his hands. This is "making
the coffee too strong" In cases of
that kind it is better to buy a money
order and pay the price of it and put it
in your letter and seal it and mail it
yourself. Or 10 to the Express office

EASTERN IGNORANCE?

chain of lakes at which is reported Of
inland CONNIE rec, according to the off,
cial statistics at Washington, only
three times the tonnage that enters
and leaves the port OF New York from
all parts of the world, foreign and
domestic. One Of the most learned
and eminent of our great men, when a
senator from the Empire State, in con-
versatiOn with me on cold day in
winter said: "YOur home is in De-
troit? You must have this kind Of

tending from the British boundary In
the great lakes to the gulf. taking in
both valleys Of the Mississippi and
Missouri, an empire which produces
the greatest wealth Of the nation,and
is the consumer and the trader from
whose custom the commercial cities
Of the Atlantic draw their prosperity
and riches.
Chicago is building an aqueduct to
the Mississippi, called a drainage
canal. 1t is an open secret that it is
in contemplation, if our appeal for an
outlet to the Atlantic continues to be
met with Indifference and opposition,
that the drainage canal will be
widened and deepened, so that by the
votes which. when united can control
governmental policies, legitimate gov
eminent aid may clear the way to the
gulf for our merchant marine.
